It we did not entertain a high respect for
the papers from which we have made the
iregoing quotations, we would avoid the
liabilities to which wo know we are expo
sing ourself, when we take exception to
these expressions. But it is precisely be
cause we esteem them influential and wor
thy journals, that we are not at liberty to
lorba it. the -ohjections which we have
again -4 thorn, or or the imputation of a
fault finding disposition.
Can it be, brethren, that the causa which
you espon.e. tiro principles you advocate,
or the success even of the man whom you
prefer, can only be secured by such wails
as this? Are the truth and be ituy and
the Dower of republicanism to be establish
ed by detractory assertions r.f individual
charautei? Are Mr. Van Boren's claims
to the respet and confilonee of the people, i
end his title .to the highest honor of the
,palilte service, only to be maintained, or an
any daoree assisted, by contumelious treat
ment of his rivals in popular favor? Bundy
there i+ error in this thin o. Divest your
'selves, if but tor a mint 'lit, of the excite
nvot (we hid a'most said, of the freeze)
which you allow your party attachments
nod animosities to en 'ender; assume the
cool and generous frame of mind which so
wall b•-fits free and enlightened cit:zens,
(and such you are.) and calmly answer the
inquiry, "Who is he whom we are describ
ing as the petticoat General—a superan- I
.nuated and pitiful dotard?"
Yourselves will answer and that on
compulsion puli'leal aspirations out of
view, yourselves will answer most frankly,
1! is a tried patriot, and a worthy citiz-'n;
"seven times tritod is he" in the ordeals
of fire and water. While yet a e:ripling,
you wit/say, ha gave himself to the ardu
vua service of his country; he exchanged
the joys and the safety of family and home,
far the parils and hardships of a dreary wil
derness and a (ravage enemy. Fur fiirty
years, henceforward, did be devote himseaf
to his country; in peace and in war. in dan
ger and security, in the camp and in th
chisel, in the Senate and the battle field,
did he serve that country in true fealty and •
untarnished honor, until even now, groan
gray in that service which has brought him
•nothing but a glorious reputation, and a
conscience void of entice against the obli
.gations of patriotism, he stands, in his old
uge, among the millions who surround him,
a model of official purity and uncorrupted
integrity. And this is the toil-worn soldier
and honored citizen who is described as a
- 4 •superan , uated and pitiful dotard," and a
-"petticoat General!!"
Brethren, if we believe another to be the
'batter statesman, let us say so. If we think
'the aged patriot entertains opinions and sem
Uments adverse to the important Interests
'of our country, let-us canvass unreservedly
tho , e sentiments and opinions. But in the
name of humanity and gratitude, let us not
'taunt the war-worn veteran with the decre
pitude of years, which come to all of human
',kind, nor touch with rude unfeeling band
'his hard earned garlands won on many a
'bloody field where brave runt fought. Gen
tlemen, there is a vast difference between!
the goose and the death dealing sword I
—a mighty contrast between the sufferings!
and the dangers of a tented field, and the
11°11 and easy Ilfe of a critic who denoun-
t e it.
When, under the influence of politics!
acerbity, one feels prone to disparage the
just claims of General Harrison - to the con
sideration of the people, there are two cir
cumstances the recollection of which ought,
it would seem, serve to arrest the incipient
purpose. It should be remembered, in the
first place, that two years have just gone
'by, when a majority of the citiv•ns of Ohio
would have raised him to the loftiest post
of revonsibility and honor—and that such
an expression of popular opinion is entitled
So seine weight, in estimation individual
character. And in the second place, let it
not be forgotten (by future generations it
will not be) that from the service of the
State, continued through all the active
years of a lengthened lite, he reri•es to pov
erty. W lion the facts become so common
as no longer to be remarkable, let his coun
try cease to hold it as a token of Harrison's
worth; but while it yet remains the military
instance, save one, in which the love of
money has been otally lost in the noble
love of country and honor, lot it be acknow
ledged as the proudest monument of his
greatness and the best memorial of his vir
tue.

What is it that distinguishes the free from the
despotic governmentl The right of suffrage in
the people of a government makes it free; the
want of that right makes it a despotism. It is
therefore a right which the people should protect
with the greatest care, and which they should
exercise on every fitting occasion.
The habitual failure of the people to exercise
this right, would be to give up the government to
the hands of a few, who would administer it for
their own interests, and not fur the general wet.
fare, and would end in an oligarchy or a despo.
tiern—forms of government equally to be eschewed
by all who desire to promote public happiness
and prosperity. But the people of Pennsylvania.
at least the people of Adams county, are-too in
telligent to forego this right; they appreciate its
value too highly to fail to exercise it on every
fitting occasion. And if ever there was a time
when the exercise of this right was incumbent on
the people of this county and this commonwealth,
this is the period. Every man owes it to his

It is well enough for us to inquire what it is

the absence of all law, an utter license for every
man, or set of men, to vindicate their own wrongs;
or when men are restrained by ealut laws from
violating the rights of their neigh

or us to be industrious, if whoever chances to be
stronger than we aro may take from us the re
wards of our labor? It would Only be the worse
for na to be so, for the property which we would
acquire by industry would invite aggression.
If such a state of society should come about,
every man must arm himself in defence of his
property and reputation, and when either is taken
from him, become his own avenger. Yet this is
the state of things to which Locifocoisen must
reduce the country. The great principle of the
locofoco party is, that when men aro eggrieved
they need not wait for the slow process of law
for redress, but that they may at once call togeth
er ther friends and vindicate their wrongs. This
principle goes at once to subvert the laws and
oveithrow every thing like civil government. It
resolves society into its original elements—makes
property again common, subject to he seized dud
appropriated by the strongest. This is the prin
ciple upon which the Harrisburg mob acted—this
is the principle upon which the lueofoco candi
' dates act, who countenanced that mob. As the
friends of civil government and constitutional
liberty, are you prepared to vote for the candi
dates of the party which sanctions such rloc•

the fact of his having represented Amos McGinty

of the county, as a dotard, and entirely dminali

and as the said Joel B. Danner is not only an ap.

from the legislative halls of your commonwealth,
we ask, is there an bimonthly man, an honest

State. Every patriot—every good man owes it
to himself. to his children, to his fellow citizens,
to his coliotry, to devote that day to their inter

owing to apathy and indifference to the result
of the election. We hope and believe that it In
dicates a state of the public mind fitted to think
aright, and engaged in reflecting on the momen
tous importance of the approaching contest. If it
ho tho coolness of indifference that causes the
present quiet, we ore even now in the midst of
the calm which is the harbinger of the storm in

will not believe that the people are indifferent.
We will not believe that they do nut understand
the importance of the present c-isis. We hope
that men of all parties have taken advantage of
