Pennsylvania IP - er - naanently Re-
deemed,
The Southern olegnrchy and the de•
grading principles of free trade have been
signally rebuked. Jams Buchanaa and
his sattellites are overwhelintn2ly :prostra
ted in the dust. Pennsylvania deservedly
stands at the head of this great Union.—
She has spoken on Tuesday of last week,
that makes tyrants tremble. Nobly hits
she vindicated her honor by giving a ma
jority of 25,000, against Free Trade, and
the pro Slavery oligarchy. The citidel
of Bu ohanan himself has spoken with a
voice that carries consternation to the trai
tor. Bravely have the people of the coon
ty and the whole State, rebuked the arch
traitor. We hope 'o hear no more of Lo•
cofo favorite sons in the Presidential chit ir,
Tyrany, deception and misrule hove for
ever died out. This victory has crowned
the working mans efforts, that in 1850 we
shall carry the old Trees State by 50,000.
All that is wanting is unity of action, uni
ty of effort, by all who would be free.—
Despotism and tyranny have gasped their
last. Bravely will the Wood of Broderick
be avenged, who has fallen as the first
martyr of freedom. Should wisdom and
harmony pervade the councils of the Pee
pie's party, and place John Covode as our
standard bearer for Governor, and General
Simon Cameron as our Presidential candi
date, the sham Democracy shall be only a
thing that was. 50,000 in Pennsylvania
would be the least, and the triumphant
election of Simon Cameron the great re
sult,
Our Etninty Election.
We are sorry that Mr. W igtnn, our can
didate for the Legislature has been defea.
led by a few voters. The most unscrupu
loos falsehoods have been circulated -by
his opponents and we are sorry that thoy
were believed by many of our own party.
Notwithstanding this, we have reason to
be proud of the success of the State ticket
the election of our Sheriff, Poor Director ;
Commissioner and the whole ticket, excepi
the District Attorney. We consider the
election of Sheriff and Poor Director among
the greatest triumphs at the y ear, never
was the Locofoco power concentrated with
more energy and chicanery for the suc
success of a Sheriff, and never before was
an attempt made to prostitute the high char
acter of the different churches, and to
king them down to the level of sectional
politics, The election of General Watson
has rebuked the miserable attempt. In
the election of General Watson, the parts
that have elected hint have reason to be
proud of his high moral standing in this
county and wherever he is known.

el, DANIEL Boutin was one of the
most reinavtable men that this country
has produced. ll's character is marked with
originality, and his actions were important
nt.cl influential in any one of the most interes
ting periods af our history—that of the early
settlements of Kentucky. Boone is generally
to knowledged as the Wunder of that State,
having explored it alone Cu a considerable ex
tent; lending the earliest settlers; founding
Hoonebborough, having defended the stations
against the Indians, and the prominent part
which he took in military affairs of this period
of distress and peril, certainly render his claims
to the honer of the title founder of Kentucky
very strong."
