TO THE DEMOCRATS OF RUNTINGDON
COUNTY.
FELLOW Crrizans :—We are on the
verge of an important political contest
—important to ourselves, and to the fu
ture prosperity of the Keystone State.
As a Democrat, and one, too, who has
ever acted consistently with the Demo
cratic party, I warn you to ponder and
reflect before you cast your vote for the
so-called nominee of the Democratippar:
ty for the office of Canal ComMissiener.
It is very well known that tilt siffiject
of the Tariff is to be the Issq at the
coming election—and it is equally well
known which act foster and protects
the interests of the nieehtlhic and labor
ing man better thee the other ; and
would it not be folly fdr us to rush blind
ly against our own ititetests; bycesting
our votes for Mr: resterl Ho is the
open and avowed enemy of the (Let of
'42—and the firm and devoted fridhcl of
the Tariff of '46. This is not disputed.
The leading Ileniaratie paper at the
seat of Government has sent tb6 edict
forth. In order to prove what I say; I
beg leave to give the following from the
paper alluded to—the Harrisburg Ar
gus :
u We now say, and can hafely apphel M every
man that has ever heard Mr. Foster speak on the
subject, (and they are not a RASA that he was an
OPEN OPPONENT OF -THE TARIFF OF
.1842, and en advocate and defender of the 'Heim
expressed on that subject, by the organ f the Ad;
ministration at Washington."
Here, fellow-Democrats, you haim his
position fairly before you. He has not
denied it—and is it, therefore, not nat
ural to suppose, that it is correct, ema
nating, as it does, from "head quarters I"
But this is not all. Mr. Foster is not
the candidate of the voting portion of the
Democratic party. Contrary to the
wishes of a majority of the Democracy
of this State, (I mean the hard-fisted
yeomanry and mechanics) he was pahn
ed upon us, at the last 4th of March con
vention, by a few partizans, aspirants
for office, and the "powers that be."—
His nomination was wholly effected by
the corrupt use of the patronage of the
'Canal Commissioners' office. The differ
ent appointments on the several lines of
the canal were all withheld for the ex
press purpose of bribery and coirupOdtt
—for the purpose of buying up votes in
the Convention. This cannot be denied.
It has been charged upon him by the
press of all parties, and never yet ra
ted.
And are we to submit to all thhi
Shall we be dictated to by d set Of de
signing, plundering, cetinorpts for
office'? I trust not. it to Ile hoped
that the good sense of the Democratic
voters of this county, will lead them tb
study their own interests better.
. _
And further—Mr. Foster has served
one term in the Board of Canal Com
missioners. Upon his first election, he
Went into that office, with the fact sta
ring him in the face, that after his term
expired, his services were "no longer
wanted." But the lust for office so great
ly increased in him, that he indiscreetly
suffered his name to be used the second
time—the result of which will be atten
ded by a Waterloo defeat in October.
The salutary resolution adopted by
our County Convention, on the one term
c t y
principle, I think, should be brow ht to
bear in the coming contest—an thus
teach all designing demagogues, ac
tual demonstration, that the "will bf the
people must be obeyed." The.titrie has
Wile when the violation of this rfc6ept-
W and most invaluable principle *ill no
longer be tolerated. It is wise Old just.
Its recommendation by Gen. Jeckiori is
qufficient proof of that.
r And now, in conclusion, fellow Demi
berets, I caution you how you vote in
this contest. Remember, that yetur dcru
interests are at stake—the true Princi2
Iles of the Democratic party—and the
safety of the Keystone Commonweiilih:
By voting for Foster, you aim a death
blow at all that protects and preserind
us. .
Shall it be heralded forth from Maine
to Georgia that, by our votes, Old Penn
tiylvania has declared in favor of FREE
TRADE 'I No, never ! Then up, Dem=
ocrats---awake from your lethargy, and
the Second Tuesday of October will wit
ness the dawn of brighter prospects
and the downfall and ignominious de
feat of FOSTER AND FREE TRADE!
A JACKSON DEMOCRAT.
American Grain.
The argument that the Farmer will
be benefitted by the new Taritl; as it has
created a foreign market for their tread
stuffs, is fallacious. The new Tariff had
nothing to do with the alteration of the
British Corn laws. Th 9 alteration took
islitee before the passage of the Tariff of
/846'. Beside, it is now evident the
lie* Corn laws of England are a posi
tiVe detriment to the American farmer.
They open the ports of England to all
the world upon the same terms—where
as, formerly the American wheat ship
ped ihragfh Canada to England, paid a
duty 4oiieid4reibly less than that which
was shipped from any other part of the
world. This advafitage is noiv lost.
Connect with this the fact that the
new Tariff will diminish the' ho'me mar
ket, by curtailing our manufacturing es
tablishments, and we think it is appa
rent that the American Farmer will soon
bitterly curse the day which gave birth
to the Tariff. of 1846.—Village Record.

injury: Where are the advantages over

with all, we are content that the agricul

its ability to enhance their peculiar in

operate upon the manufacturing districts; '

classes of our people have prospered.—

has been confidence, rejoicing and, grat

be sweet or bitter. If the legislation of
the British Parliament brings better
times than the system of protection for

Washington, Madison and Jackson, let
them sustain it. We appeal with con

A SIGN.—We have received a copy of
a new paVer started in' JOhnstOwn, Pa.
called the ".Democratic Courier:" It
is published by C. Divine; and sup
ports the Locofoco party, but goes it
strong. against WM. B. FOstbri and the
British Tariff of 1846. We find the
follOWing; frOm the, first number of thiS
paper in our exchanges:

tection of the iiidestrial pursuits, and
the development of the mineral wealth
that lies buried in our inbuiitains and

the British Tariff of 1846: .

not gibe w ritten pledge to use his office

Gbob:-- - --We clip the following from
the Pittsburg Areerican
A lot 3focb Milder *tts 6Ontetiding the
other day on the street with a recusant
member of his party who was remon
strating with bitterness on the treasOtt
that had been practiced upon them in
1844, and clinched an argument in favor
of the vote of that year by repeating to
his discontented follower the latin aph
orism, which he called a quotation from
scripture: "Vox populi, Vox Del—the
voice of the people is the voice of God."
"It Is no doubt so," said the only half
stumped listener, " but I think God was
only irying his people, to see how far
they could be blinded by the devil."
A GOOD ANSWER.-A correspondent of
the Boston Atlas tells the following an
ecdote of Gen. Joseph Chandler, of Au
g:lota;Maine who presided at a meet
ing of . the Independent Detnocrats in
that town a few days ago:
A Locofoco, who had mere impudence
than brains, (which is a iery usual oc
ettrrehee) :liked General Chandler if
6,4 he was going ofer to the Federalists'!"
He said, in reply, "that, in olden times,
the pest Of Democracy was the disposi
tion to ei - Murtfge home industry—the
wearing of hence madeapparel, the pro-.
tection of home labor f and those were
called Tories who were for procuring
articles of clothing and manufactures
from British workshops." •

that he died in about 24 hours afterwards.
He was a stone cutter by trade, and has
