gate to represent them in the State Con
vention at Harrisburg 'on the 14th of July,
and to appoint conferees to elect a aenntori_
al delegate; and for the further purpose of
consultation ns to the most prudent and
efficient means to unite the People in their
notion against the great wrongs inflict e d
by the National Administration upon the
rights of a free people.
The meeting was organized byaoppoint

meeting, &c. The chair then appointed
D. McMurtrie, Hon. J. McWilliams, Dr.
C. W. Moore, Nathaniel Lytle, Esq , and
11. McDivitt, said Committee, who presen
ted the following which were unanimously
adopted :
WfieitEns. The policy of the present
National Administration has disgusted its
political supporters and aroused the muss
of the people of all political organizations
in opposition to the despotism and tyranny
of iis Kansas policy, its persistent charts
to keep prostrated the industrial pursuits
of the people, and the imbecility of its
foreign and domestic measures, Therefore,
Resolved, That a County Committee
consisting of .D. McMurtrie, Capt. John
Whittaker, Dr. C. IV. Moore,
Nati attic!
Lytle, Esq., Geo. W. Johnston, 11, B. Wig.
ton, 11. Hamilton and Wtn. Orhison. he
'appointed by this Convention to call n no
minating convention to assemble in the
bnrough.of Huntingdon, on Tuesday, the
)11th day of August, next, to he composed
of A. , nericans, Republicans, Ainericao Re
publicans, Dsouocrats opposed to the "Le
compton Swindle "and all others opposed
to the National Administration, tvlr, may
pledge themselves to support the ticket
then placed in nomination, the State ticket
to be placed in nomination on the .11th of
July, next, by the Opposition Stale
vention, and the opposition candidate for
Congress in tho district of which Hun.
tingdon county forms a part.
Resolved, That the tickets thus place.;
before the people of Huntingdon county
be supported by all why are opposed to the
present National Administration ; .esne
chilly to its despotic and fraudulent Le
' compton policy, its wilfttl neglect a the
just claims of domestic industry, its rerlo
less and extravagant expenditure of the
public lands, and who are in favor of the
sovereignty of the reopl, over their own
local concerns, of American institutions as
against the policy and intrigues of foreign
governments, and of adequate protection
to our home labor "
. lle3olved, That the attempt of the late
anq present National Administration to
force upon the people of Kansas, at the
point of the bayonet, and by the boldest
and most unblushing frauds, a constitu
tion and laws, in wanton violation of their
known and expressed wishes, nerits, ns it
has received, the scorn and indignation of
a free people.
Re4olved, That the history of the coun
try demonstrates, that solid prosperity is
the result of wills on foreign manufactured
goods and tnerchandize, with protective
discriminations in favor of the American
producers, composed of the great army of
laborers, who do the work, and capitalists
who furnish the means; and that panics.
convulsions, hard times nod nn exhausted
treasury are the necessary effects of low
duties, which universally afford discritni
'nations in favor of foreign producers ; and
therefore we declare thy, opinion of this
convention. to be, that the industry of the
country requires the enactment of a jmi
cious protective tariff, to bring it out of its
present difficulties .and maintain it un an
independent footing with the balance of the
world.

FornEy's Position,
Notwithstanding the ;advent of the hea
tad term,, when the most excited tempera
inept is admonished to jceed . cool. Col.
Forney. of The Press, seeloo more deter
mined then ever to hold up to public odi
um the reeking, festering carcass of Le
cam pt on, end to torment and disturb the
consciences—if any they have—of those
recreant Democrats who helped to force
the act through Congress. During the
la:t week, the columns of The Press have
teemed with editorials, remarkable for
their earnestness, strength, and extraordi•
nary , denouncing, the horde of syc.
ophants, servile officeholders anct swarms
of office hunters who hang around the
President and shout Lecompton, and aid
in striking down and persecuting every
independent Democrat who cannot sub
scribe to each infamous doctrine. Indeed
Mr. Forney seems indomitable. Bis bold
scathing, conving editorials are sore thorns
the sines of the Buchanan Democrats, and
most unmistakeably prognosticate a disrup
tion of the party. We give a few extracts
frum ono of the lenders hi The Press.
We couirto the period immediately pre,
ceeding the 4th of March, 1858, when
the Pennsylvania Democratic ittltte Con
vention assembled at Harrisburg. h will
be recollected that, in advance of the Phil.
adeiphia Democratic Convention, we most
respectfully admonished the delegates of
that Democrucy against taking the fatal
step of endorsing the surrender of the
Cincinnati Platform. We assured them
:but any such stop would cover the Dem•
ocratic party with defeat; that not only
would such a policy, if carried out, defeat
the Democratic party in the State--not
only in the State, but in the Union ; and
that it was impossible fur nay party to
stand up against any such endorsement
in the face of a well disciplined and expe
rienced opposition, ready to take advan
tage of all our own short•comings, and to
remind us of our ten thousand promises.
But repeated warnings were neglected by
the little leaders, who managed by means
of patronage to obtain posssssion of the
Convention. Resolutiocs were declared
to have passed in favor of Lecomptonism.
The Washington Union, gloried over this
endorsement, and every pensioned press
from Maine to Georgia held it forth us an
evidence that the Democratic party of Phil-
and after a gallant struggle, memorable in
party annals a series of resolutions was
carried over the heads of a resting place
and intrepid minority, and so the foul
work was again ratified and affirmed.
The harvest came ; and what a harvest
it was! Bickering and bad blood appeared
in every county to the Commonwealth.—
Dissensions were carried into every State
in the North. The Democratic party was
beaten in every election that tool; place in
the Free States, and the last result was
the defeat of that"? great party in this city
of Philadelphia by an overwhelming ma
jority. The prophecy made in these col
unnts t een appallingly fulfilled.
But did the unfortunate results referred
to induce the advocates of Lecomptonistn
to pause in their mad career? On the
contrary. Northern Representatives, with
the protests of hundreds of thousands of
Democrats ringing in their ears, stubborn
ly insisted upon supporting that monstrous
proposition. And now a new scene in the
dramma is about to be enacted, and the
people are called upon unresistingly to
assist in and shout over its performance.
Tito men who forced Lecompten through
Congress—th 6 men . who insulted the pi&
lic sentiment—the men who dose ted the
pledges of 1850, who applauded the pros
cription of the champions tried and true, of
that pririciple, these tnen now call upon
the masses of the Northern Democracy to
re elect them to the next Congress, and
thus to seal, by a popular decree; the gra
vest act of pollitical turpitude and triplet'•
ery to be found in pollitical annuls !
lint, in the name of a great party, we
say No to the demand. We assert that •
enough has been lost for this thslionora
He example. We declare that a sufficiency
of sacrifice has been made in the name of
a despotic doctrine.
*
• For here is the practical question, after
all. Lecomptanisin is not a virtue, but a
heresy—it is not even a decent expedient
but un incurnate and festering corruption.
It has no vitality in it.

MAY Appointments
Dr. Ilerdman, Physician for disease of the ,
Lungs, (formerly Physician to Cincinnati Ma

rooms as follows ;
Hinitingdon,JaWcson's Hotel, Stintlaiy,June 27th
Dr. 11. is compelled to make this month's
visit on Sunday or disappoint the sick.
Dr. Hardin. treats Consumption, Bronchi
tis, Asthma, Larryngittis and all diseases of the
throat and lungs, by medical Inhalation, lately
used in the Brow.. Hospital, London. The
great point in the treatment of all human mala
diesis to get at the disease in the direct man
ner, All medicines ere estimated by their ac
tion upon the (spin requiring relief. This is
the important fact upon which Inhalation is bu
sed. If the stomach is diseased we take
medicine directly into the stomach. If the lungs
are diseased,
breathe or inhale medicated va
pors directly into the lungs. Medicines are the
antidotes to disease and should be applied to
the very seat of disease. Inhalation is the np
pliention of this principle to the treatment of
the lungs, for it gives us direct access to those
intricate air cells and tubes which lie out of
reach of every other means of administering
medicines. I lie reason that Consumption, and
other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore re
sisted all treatment has been because they had
never been approached in a direct manner lay
medicine. They were intended to act upon tho
lungs and yet ware applied to the stomach.—
Their action was intended to be local, and yet,
they were so administered that they should not
act constistutionally, expending immediate sand
principal action upon the unoftending stomach,
whilst the lied ulcers within the lungs were un
molested. Inhalation brings the medicine in
direct contact with the disease, without the
disadvantage of .y violent action. Its appli
cation is simple, that it can be employed by the
youngest intent or feeblest invalid. It doe s not
derange the stomach, or interfere in the least de
gree with the strength, comfort, or business of
the patient.
Qruisn DMA.. TnEATFD.—In relation
to the following diseases, either when compli
cated with lung affections exiyting alone, I also
invite consultation.l usually dial them prompt
ly curable.
Prolapses .d all other forms of Female eons
&into, Irregulitrities and Weakness.
