GLORIOUS OLD HUNTINGDON I
In no county in the Stab• have the Taylor
men done better, in comparison with the Octo
ber election, than in our own glorious old Hun
tingdon. We are at a loss to know which dis
trict to compliment first—all have done so well.
The Cass men, it is well known were vaporing,
boasting and assuring their 4, friends abroad," ,
that they would reduce we; and to do so they
left not a stone unturned—no means, however
dishonorable, untried. They fought with the
desperation of men whose last hope depended
on their efforts at this time. But their efforts
failed—their humbugs are exploded, and they
are politically used up forever.
We never seen an election conducted with so
much unscrupulous desperation as in this die
trict. To make votes for Cass, poor men were
approached by Canal officers with promises of
Locks or work upon'the Canal; and others, un
der the control of wealthy Locofocos, and those
clothed in a 5' little brief authority," were
threatened with being turned out of their houses
and with having their S U BSI STEN C E TA KEN
FROM THEM if they DARED to vote for
ir old Zack." All this was done by men claim
ing to be democrats ! And some of whom are
even looking up to seats in Congress as demo
erotic candidates! Lord sa. , e the poor from
the embraces of such democrats ! Others, un
der the control of Locofoco agents, were drag
ged up to the polls...and compelled to vote for
Cass or lose their situations! And this too by
men who are constantly falsely charging Whig
manufacturers with wanting to control the
votes of those in their employ. After resort
ing to such degrading means, and having the
advantage of an extra vote that will not be
seen in the district again, they had the mortill
cation, when the votes were counted, of discov
ering that they had only increased one vote over
..their October majority. The Taylor Men,
however, had one advantage, which they had
not in October. The elected Judge did not ap
pear in time, and the Inspectors appointed an
other, also a Locofoco, but an honest, intelli
gent man, in his place. And it was soon dis
covered, after the voting commenced, that it
took more qualifications. than merely offering
to vote. the Locofoco ticket, (as in October) to
get a vote. It is with great pleasure that we
publicly applaud the honest action of a majority
of our election board on Tuesday last. We re
gret to say, that we could not conscientiously do
so after the October election. .And it is with
unfeigned pleasure, that we bear witness to the
zeal and vigilance manifested by the Rough and
. Ready boys. We feel proud in being associa
ted wills such a Spartan'band.
The country districts did nobly—,very one '
of them. Early in the evening the news came
from WALKER, which gave Longstreth 0 ma
jority, that the vote stood 93 to 81, which was r
received by the Taylor men with three cheers.
Next came Porter w;th 72 majority for old
Zack—a gain of 20. e-which caused a shout to go
up that shook the town. Next came glorious
old FRANKLIN, with a majority of 03—again
of 43 since October ! The idea of trying to
sleep was now abandoned, the Taylor Minstrels
making the nignt vocal with their songs and in
strumental music. The lines,
,4 Old Zack shall be our President,
And nobody else but he,"
indications began to demonstrate possessed
quite us much truth am poetry. Then came in
rapid succession the glorious districts of
BRADY, UNION, WA RRIORSAIARK, MOR
RIS and MURRAY'S RUN, all adding their
gains to swell op the majority for old Rough
and Ready. And when CROMWELL, with
her 124 majority was heard from at daylight,
all considered that the State had gone for Tay
lor, especially as SHIRLEY, DUB e LIN,
SPRINGFIELD and CLAY were received at
the same time, and TOD, CASS, HOPEWELL,
and PENN soon after, in all of which the Tay
lor men had manfully done their duty. In the
afternoon of Wednesday, we received a line
from a friend in JACKSON township, whore
Longatreth had 14 majority, informing us that
the township was gloriously redeemed—Taylor
paving received a majority of 9, All the Tay
lor men now considered the Union safe for old
Zack, as If was fair to presume honest demo
crat. elsewhere ; as in Jackson, bad thrown off
the shackles of party and boldly voted for Tay
lor. The Taylor men of Jackson have done
nobly, and the honest democrats who came up
to the help of their country, wili hereafter look
back to their vote upon this occasion with more
satisfaction than any they ever cast in their
lives.
As we said ip the corotrie4ement of thin ar
tick, the whole county did nobly: Old Hmt ,
tingdon has come up to her former standard,
notwithstanding the unusual extra Locofoco
vote now within her limits. She has again
sadly disappointed Locofocoism, and forever
banished, from the minds of the Locofoco lead ,
era the hope of conquering her sturdy Whig
yeon'anry. The boast of the Globe that Loco
focoism would have the majority, has again
been falsified, and we would advise the editor
never again to insult the intelligence of his
readers by such silly predictions.
In conclusion, Whigs of Old Huntingdon,
" OLD Lica," as we long since predicted, has
been elected President of the United States.—
And we will again predict, that his administra
tion of the Government will be such that you
will never regret having aided his election by
giving him a majority of
665!

Speaker of the House.
An important session of the Legislature is be
fore 11A. A new order of things is abort to com
mence in Pennsylvania. The late elections show
that Legislators and public officers generally
cannot act in defiance of the popular will. And
it is clearly the will of the People that public
business shall not only be well done, but done
economically and with despatch. To expedite
legislation, it is of the first importance to select
an energetic and competent presiding officer.
And in this connection, we beg leave to suggest
the name of A. K. CORNYN, Esq., the mem
ber clect from this county, as Speaker of the
next House of Representatives.
It is true Mr. C. will be a new member, but
there is no member of the coming Legislature,
save Mr. Coopei., (who will not desire it,) who
possesses, in such an eminent degree, the rcqui•
site qualifications for an efficient presiding offi
cer, us does Mr. Cornyn. We do not suggest
his name merely because he comes from our
own county. We are impelled to do so by a
higher and more patriotic motive—the public
good. Should the Whigs of the House, at the
coming session, see proper to adopt our sugges
tion and elect Mr. Cornyn Speaker, we
predict that he will fill the chair with an ability,
impartiality and urbanity that will excite the
admiration and applause of all.
U. S. Senator.
The victory of the Whigs of this State secures
to them a United States Senator for six years.—
Who among the many able and patriotic Whig
Statesmen of Pennsylvania shalt receive the
honor of that station 1 From the evidences
around its, we think we can safelyanswer—Hon.
JAMES COOPER of Adams county. He not
only deserves it for his long and able advocacy
of Whig principles, but the interests of this
great Commonwealth demands that she should
be represented in the IT. S. Senate by one of
his admitted ability and Legislative experience.
We therefore give our voice in favor of Mr.
Coop,r, and hope to see him elected.
A Slanderer.
There is a Locofoco in this town, a'Landlord,
who receives his chief support from Whigs,
who devotes all his leisure time in slandering
Whig candidates, during every election cam
paign. And not satisfied with this, he does not
hesitate to slander his Whig neighbors, if he can
thereby make a vote for his party. He pours
into the ear of every unsuspecting man he
moats the most foul-mouthed lies and slanders
against Whig candidates and private citizens,
and theft turns round, shows his ivory and with
a ghastly grin asks Whig support. We caution
the 'Whig public against him. As pirates often
do, he sails under false colors—the American
Eagle.
Iron-Masters.
Those who read Locofoco papers would doubt
less think thut all Iron masters are Whigs, and
great tyrants. They are charged with compel
ling their hands to vote the same ticket they do,
and indeed of every species of oppression.—
Now, it so happens that some Ironmasters are
Locofocos, the Locofoco papers to the contrary
notwithstanding. And it so happens that those
Locofoco Ironmasters are the very men who
play the tyrants over those in their employ to
the greatest extent. One for instance, in the
lower end of this county, who has some fifty
men in his employ, invariably accompanies
theta to the Polls and compels them to vote the
Locofoco ticket. He presents all their receipts
for taxes, and then votes them, with as much
presumption as though they belonged, body and
soul, to himself. The Bell summons them to
the Polls, and they must chime in with it or
leave the bank. Such ismodern democracy !
That Fraud !
Do our Locofoco friends still intend to content
the election of Gov. Johnston, on the ground of
"fraud" in Schuylkill county? or will they
again charge the honest voters of thut county
with being "&arid ," We shall see.

Modesty.
A young Law student, who has been in thin
county about one year, objected at this poll ell
Tuesday last, to an old man's vote who has been
paying taxes and voting in this county for the
last forty years. And to cap the climax, the
Locofoco Inspector, who had taken his vote at
the October election, and knew him to be a
qualified voter, handed the book to him and
wanted him to swear. Of course he indignant
ly declined, and the board took his vote.
Where is He I
The administrator of the Party, DE
CEASED" is anxiously enquired for. Is he
ready to settle up the account ? "The Whigs
say, "Gen. Taylor never surrenders." "We'll
MAKE him surrender !"—is the very last pre
diction.we heard fall from the administrator's
prophetic lips. The inquiry now is—when?
“Gen. Taylor will not receive the vote
of more than oue State in the Union.” Who
made the above prediction f We know of one
friend of ours who will not likely have any offi
cial business at Harrisburg next month. A. G.
Curtin, Esq., is the elector elect from this dis
trict.
Cel. Wyncoop.

Occupation Gone.
The occupation of a certain smart young
man in Cuss township, of circulating pamphlets
got up at Washington grossly slandering Gen.
Taylor, is now gone. By a glance at the re

it will be perceived that his business did'nt pay.

rendezvous of the Union Rough and Ready
Club, the coffin-house of Christian Lilly, at the
corner of Circus and Perdido streets, was wan
tonly set on fire, and in a few moments was a
heap of ruins. A light also took place at this
point, and we understood that W. H. Wilder,

Two Whigs /Murdered?'
A gentleman just from Mercer county informs
us that a dispute took place in the town of Mer

Whigs, when the former drew a pistol and shot
one of the Whigs—he then tied, pu'rsaed by the
other Whig when he turned and shot the other
as he was approaching him. 13oth shots were mo'r:
