Journal for the Campaign !'
PATRIOTS READ!
Believing that hundreds of patriotic in-!
dividuals, in this county, who are generally
averse to mixing in the din of party politics,'
are, nevertheless, at this time, anxious to
learn more of the public and private histo- 1
ry of the peoples' favorite, G en. WINFIEL
SCOTT—to familiarize themselves more
fully with all the interesting, soul-stirring!
incidents in the life and character of the'
great hero-statesman—the most renowned
military leader in the world, and scarcely
less distinguished for the sagacity and suc i
cess of his civil diplomacy—we propose to,
devote a largo portion of the "Journal" to:
reminescences of his life and actions, both;
as the leader of our armies and the agent.
of our government—all drawn from authen
tie history, public documents, and other
reliable sources—and to furnish our paper'
to new subscribers from this time till the!
first of December, at the following 101 l
rates, viz :
Single Copy, paid in advance;
7 Copies to one address,
Friends, send in your orders. Spread
the light of truth broad-cast over the,
county, by placing the "Journal" in the'
hands of every unprejudiced voter, and wel l
promise glorious results on the second,
Tuesday of November. Circulate the doc-1
uments and the response at the ballot-box'
will be at least ONE THOUSAND major
ity in this county for "Old Chippewa."—
Any pecuniary profit we may derive from
this enterprise will be appropriated to partl
payment of a new press, and the enlarge- i i
meat of our paper.
DEATH OF HENRY CLAY.

City on Tuesday the 29th June, ult., al

When the news of the mournful event
came, all the belle in town were immedate

`General Pierce and the Hight ofj
Petition.
IThe New York Evening Post and kin
',tired party papers, in order to win the free
!soil Democrats to Pierce, make a great
noise about his vote in Congress, to res
pect the right of petition. The Albany
Evening 0 ournal meets this shabby pre-'
tame by the following rather rough facts,'
taken from the records of the U. S. House )
of Representatives:
On Monday, the 26th of Deeember,lB36,
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS presented a petition
for the abolition of Slavery and the Slave,
Trade in the district of Columbia. It was ,
moved to lay it on the table. The motion
was adopted by a vote of 116 Ayes to 36
Noes. First in the list of Noes stands the
name of John Quincy Adams, and promi
nent among the Ayes is the name of FRANK
LIN PIERCE !
On the 9th of January, 1837, 228 wo
men of South Weymouth asked the privi
lege of petitioning Congress in regard to,
- Slavery. Their prayer was refused by a'
vote of 150 to 50. Among those who vo
ted to grant it was JOHN QUINCY A 11.4315;
among those who rejected it was FRANKLIN
PIERCE!
The next day the enemies of the Right
of Petition grew bolder. John W. Davis
moved to suspend the rules, in order to'
pass a resolution not to receive any peti
`lions upon the subject of Slavery. It fail
ed, not because there was not a majority
Ifor it, but because two-thirds wore requir
ed, and the vote stood 102 to 78. One
`of the 78 was JOHN QUINCY APA3IS, and
one of the 102 was FRANKLIN PIERCE.
But on the 18th of the same month, Mr.
[awes offered a resolutiou which was a]
follows :
Resolved, That all petitions, memnorials,l
resolutions, propositions or papers, relating,
in any way, or to any extent, to the sub
ject of Slavery, or to the abolition of Sla
very shall, without being printed or re
ferred„ be laid on the table, and co FUR
ITIIER ACTION BE HAD THEREON.
The record shows that, previous to its'
passage, Mr. Adams was among its stron-1
gest opponents, and Pierce among its
l
warmest supporters. It was passed by
139 to 69; JOAN QUINCY ADAMS voting
No and FRANKLIN PIERCE voting AYE !
After this obstinate hostility to the Right
.of petition, how absurd to attempt to hum
bug the free democrats by parading his
solitary vote in the Senate--a vote cast
/in favor of receiving the anti-slavery pe
tition, it is true, but only because he deem
ed that the surest way of defeating the
!purpose of the signers; and because the
(rejection of these petitions by resolutions
of a democratic Congress, was rapidly
drawing the northern wing of the party !
from its allegience.
The Next Congressman
Air. Editor :—Your readers are un-,
.questionably aware that the Legislature atl
;its last session apportioned the State in ael
P cordance with the Census of 1850. In that
lapportionment Huntidgdon county has found
new associations; and she is now compelled]
to present the justice of her claims to a,
people who are, to say the least of it,l,
strangers to her gallant bearing in every
contest, and to the sacrifices she has made,
to give strength to our party organization, , ,
and secure that success whirls was won by
l
her fidelity.
For twenty years Huntingdon county has'
not had one of her citizens in Congress.--1
Faithful in every contest, she rolled up her
majority, and by it alone, not unfrequent
ly, bringing victory on our standard.
She makes an earnest enquiry now. is,
it not her turn next ? Must she be only]
a "hewer of wood" for the party ? And;
may she not ask with the confident assu-'
ranee that she will not ask in vain, that one
of her citizens be nominated as the candi-I
date for Congress. I have heard the names
of Dr. J. McCulloch, S. Miles Green, J.!
G. Miles, J. Sowell Stewart, and A. WI
Benedict mentioned in connection with the y
office, and who will say that any better
material can be found in the district.
I ask that the people in all portions of
the District make themselves acquainted
with the history of the past, and then not ;
ionly consent to, but urge the claims ofi

!and prepared to attend to the business of,
this office. He will be found, at all times,'
, ready to receive new subscribers, adverti i i
sing, and job work of every description, to,

will please remember that the senior edi-1

exclusively under our control, and will bel

The first and most important matter dc-,
manding our attention, is, we find, the'

list of James Clark, deo'd. We therefore
/hope that those in arrears for subscription'
to the Huntingdon Journal at the time of

Mr. Peightal's purchase, April 1, 1851,1
!will embrace the earliest convenient oppor
tunity of settling the same. We do not
mean by this to demand immediate pay
ment of these arrearages; but their definite
settlement is absolutely essential to enable
us to observe in good faith, our pecuniary
engagements. Had this notice been given,
a year ago we would not now be embarrass..
ed by a state of things from which nothing

good will to help us out of the
