SALT ZER SNYDER; aisted by Capt. Wm. REX, Col. ALI:XAN or.R CAMPDELL,RonERT M. HUTCHESON,J.A. Con BROOCH, Jo:VA:MAN C. FoEsT, Esq.,., llit and JAMEs EwINC, as Vice Presidents; and apoointing John Neely, Bernard Hilde hrand,Armstrong Toughinbarigh, and Rob (rl G. Harper, Secretaries. On motion of O. M. SM IsER,Esq. a com mittee of eleven was appointed to report re solutions expressive of the sense of the wet log. The following gentlemen composed the committee: Daniel M. Smyser, Esq.,' James Dobbin, Esq.,Robert M4llheny, Capt. John Walter, Nicholas Bushey, Esq., Peter Chronister,John Sneeringer, John Dickson, Jr., Andrew Heintv.linan, James K. %V it son, and Will Hamilton. Aging - the absence of the committee, the meeting was addressed by T• C• IlAmfity, Esq. of York, who had been specially invi ted to do so by a committe from the meet ing. D. M. SMVSER, Esq. from tie•committee appointed to prepare resolutions, then repor ted the following,which,afier some eloquent remarks by that gentleman were unanimous ly adopted: Gen. William Henry Harrison having been nominated, as tho candidate of the Anti-Van Buren party, for the office of Pre sident of the United States, we deem it proper that Adams county should respond to that nomination, in a manner worthy of the distinguished citizen who has so long and so faithfully served his country both in her councils and in the field. His wisdom, and above all the incorruptible integrity which he has displayed throughout his whole life, have pointed him out to his fel low citizens as peculiarly- fitted •to bring back the government to its former simplici ty, and restore honesty in its administra tion. Therefore: Resolved, That we hail the'nomination of Gen. William Henry Harrison as the forerunner of better times for the republic; and believe that in the incorruptible integ rity of his past life and his wisdom as a statesman, there is furnished ample assu rance that he will administer the govern ment in such manner as will be most condu cive to the honor and interests of the Coun try. Resolved, That the universal enthusiasm and unanimity with which the nomination of Gen. William Henry Harrison and Jolin Tyler, for the office of President and Vice President of the United Slates, by the great Whig National. Convention, has been re• ceived by the people in all parts of the Uni on, is the beat evidence that they are the spontaneous and free choice of the people, and furnishes a sure presage of coming suc cess. Resolved, That we hail the nomination of the hero of Tippecanoe and the Thames, as the peoples' own work, and that viewing it in that light, the people of Adams Coun ty will sustain it by giving nine hundred majority for the brave old veteran who from his boyhood has served his country, fought her battles and never fought a, battle which ho did not win—whose hands, although he handled and disbursed millions of public mo ney, are unstained by unhallowed and un lawful gains; and who is now in the evening of life, living in honest poverty when ho might have amassed a princely fortune had he been less disinterested and honest. Resolved, That the poverty of Gen. Har rison, with which he is reproached by the adherents of the present National Admin istration, is no disgrace, particularly when we recollect that his fortune was spent in the service of his country. Resolved, (*hat we will not the less hear. tily.support the nomination of Gen. Harri son, because he has been denominated the "log cabin candidate"--riot regarding it as a mutter of reproach, that our candidate is a poor man, or, that ho lives in a house loss splendid then that of his competitor Resolved, That when Gen, Harrison gave his best coat to one of his old scarred vete rans whom he met poor and in rags, -con tenting himself with a half worn and thread bare garment, he clothed himself in a robe of honor far outshining the royal purple of kings—and showed that humanity was as native to his bravo old heart, as pride was an alien to his bosom. Resolved, That we approve and the peo. ple of the United States will also approve the principle of one Presidential term so de cidedly advocated by Gen. Harrison, and to which he has pledged himself, as the sure means of curing many of the abases and mischiefs which have disgraced and almost ruined the country, by removing ore of the maic causes and inducements thereto. Resolved, That this meeting do approve and appieud the disinterested manner in which Henry Clay and the friends of the domination of that illustrious Statesman fur the Presidency,have surrendered their pros. peels and individual preferences to the pub lie good, by hailing with a zeal and enthu siasm that does them honor,the nomination of Gen. Harrison by the National Conven. tion and Oleic and his magnanimity shall not be soon forgotten, Resolved, That the doctrine of the spoils party,thnt the faith of the State is not pledg ed to the fulfilment of its cantracts,nnd that the State is incapable of entering into a binding contract, is one abhorent to every principle of honesty, justice aid common winse,and under cover of which every right this most 94cred, even the titles to our lands bought and paid for with our money, may be at will taken away at the arbitrary will of the Legislature. Resolecd, That deeply penetrated with n woes or the immense debt of gratitude ow. is by this country to the brave Harrison, this meeting recommend tho establishment of Tipiumtpio clubs throughaut the County, to disseminate more widely and thorough ly the knowledge of his civil services and military achievements. Resolved, That ae. the father of the Ares• ent Land System under the operation cf which the West has grown up like magic, he has conferred a more lasting benefit up on his country than tho award of her high est honors can repay. The people of the United States will, by elevating him to the Presidency, show that republics are not un ,.traterul. Resolved, That at the approaching Pre qiden tin! election, Pennsylvania,will redeem all past delinquencies, and range herself in the front rank of redeemed States. Resolved, That this meeting do ratify and concur in the nomination of John Dick• son, Esq., as a Presidential elector from this Congressional Diterict—and invite the con currence of our brethren in Franklin Coun. ty therein. Resolved, That Thaddeus Stevens and John Picking he and they are hereby ap. pointed delegates to represent this County in the Anti• Van Buren State Convention at Harrisburg on the 22d of February next, with power to fill vacancies—and that Rob. ert G. Harper, Col. Robert Cobean, and Col. James L. Neely be appointed confer ees to meet with ihe conferees from Frank lin and Cumberlsnd Counties, to appoint two senatorial delegates to represent thts senatorial district in said convention. Resolved, That this meeting do desire and instruct the said conferees, to endeavor to procure the nomination of Charles B. Penrose, EN., as ono of said senatorial del emotes. Resolved, That the friends of Gen. W. fl. Harrison be and are hereby requested to assembly in the several townships of the County, at the time and place of holding the township elections in March next for the purpose of organization, in the following manner, viz: That a committee of seven persons be appointed, as a central commit tee and that the township be divided into several convenient districts,in each of which a committee of two or more persons be up. pointed—which committee shall make ro• port to the County committee appointed by this meeting—also, that these several com mittees be requested to meet together from time to 'time on their own adjournments for . the purpose of considering and acting on all measures relative to the elections. Resolved also, That as soon as the several townships shall have organized in the said manner, notice of such organization shall be givtin to the County committee—so that in case nny township should fail to organize, the said County committee shall and is hereby authorized, to proceed to appoint committees as above in the several town ships. The following named gentlemen were appointed to compose the central committee: Thaddeus Stevens,Esq. Col. M. C. Clark son, Col. Baltzer Snyder, Col. John Donald son, Robert G.

It will ho seen thnt the above act contem plates nn indefinite increase of officers,with an.unlunited amount of excpendituro, both beina in the discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury. This reveals one of the ob. jects of this scheme for the safe keeping and disbursement of the public money. It con dos patronage, and is an extension of the "spoils" system. The mot) ol keeping and disbursing the ' public moneys in times past, every practi cal business man knows, was safe, conveni-. ent, and without expense to the nation.— The plan now presented has none of these recommendations Individual honesty iD, nt least, i's only guarantee of safety. The bonds and checks which the act sets out in such bold relief, experience fins proved to be unavailing flgainst the official plunderers of these days. Expenses, limited only by the pleasure of the Secretary of thn Treasury, is one of the sure fruits of 'this iniquitous scheme. His special fluent:4„ with compen sations such as Ito may " deem reasonable— clerks—secure tine proof vaults and safes— fire-proof chests--rooms--offices and ac commodations for the thousands of sub-trea surers created by the act—is the foundation for charges beyond computation; limn led only by discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury and the Postmaster General, and constituting the most potent instruments of corruption. Alarming as are its details in these par ticulars, the power with which it invests the Government over the monetary concerns arid business of the country, is yet more to be dreaded. Disguised as it has studious ly boen, it is vet easy to di , cern that it con tains the attributes of a great Government Bank, authorizin , the payment of Govern ment dues in cheeks and drafts. These will soon become currency and the medium of exclinge, and result in locking up the gold and silver to the Government vaults— thus rendering resumption by the banks im practicable, and contributing to the final overthrow of all State insittutions,mul the concentration of the whole money power in the Federal Government. Not being lenders, hut hlrrowers, in fact, to the amount ol• the it illions which will be put in eiretdio inn to the exclusion of hank issues, at present the only support of trade, it requires no prephrt to predict the ruin• errs influence of this double-edged instru ment, upon industry, property, and business of every character. --...ee e ..._ AN ELOQUENT RECORD WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON %Vile born in Virginia, on the 9th of Feb. 1773 In 1791, when lq years of' ago, he was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant Arms'.

AND lIE WILL HE HER DELIVERER ! Correspondence of the Philadelphia North American GREAT FIRE AT NEW YORK. NEW YORK, January 28: Poor New York is scorched again most sadly. We had a Fireman's Battiest night, and almost always on this anniversary, the firemen have to dance to the music of trum pets Instead of fiddles. At about 9 o'clock last evening, two fires broke cut in the bu siness parts of the city, though situated three-fourths of a mile apart. One in Front near Broad street, where a large store oc• copied by James McNeish, though aiinost empty of goods, was burned out. The oth er was near the foot of Dover on South street. A junk shop adjoining the great Thorns; 11. Smith's store was burned' out, and no lit tle alarm excited fiir the great store, which was known to ho full of goods, and though built "fire proof, ", had wooden gutters sod et wooden balustrade, and was just finished off with a wooden cupola in the centre of the roof. Besides this, the roolcovered the par. tition wall instead of n battlement 2 feet r bove the roof,as ought whim: been. A fire proof store en built, and there are hundreds, i s about as safe as a charge of powder in the barrel of a nuediet with a' percussion cap in the vent hole. The fire was subdued, and all was tondo quiet at 12 o'clock. 13ut it turned out thot the roof - attic great store was on fire, end though not discoveied for some hours, and though a watch was set, it burst .•ut nt 3 o'- clock, and swept all belie it. The el ent. store was laic! in ashes with nil its contents, mid six others between that and Dover street. The cargo of tea and hemp by the Nantasket, belonging to Boston, was in the big store, and so was the cargo of teas by the Covington, belonging to Baltimore.— The whole loss is counted between ono and two millions. I hope one milliion will prove sufficient. It is a sad blow to our insu rance companies, most of which were 0 lull" upon the property. The cargo of the Nan• tasket, of teas and hemp, valued at 82 , 10; 000, was insured at Boston. From the Commercial of Thunday last. ANOTIIEIt DESTRUCTIVE FIRE A boil 10 o'clock last evening n tiro broke out in the upper part el the fpur story brick store No. 81 Pearl street,and behn•o tt could be mastered the billowing buildings were entirely destroyed, the flout walls only be ing standing, and most of those in a totter ing and dangerous situation. The four story brick store No. 77 Pearl and 44 Stone street, owned and occupied by .1. V. Greenfield and Co. as a crock. ry store. A portion of the stock was saved.-- Loss s3o,ooo—insured. The store -No. 4'2 Stone street, running only a part of the way through to Pearl street, formed uu L with the above store, and was also occupied by Messrs. Greenfield. The four story brick store No 79' Pearl and 4(i Stone street, dccupied by Jackson and Deo!, dry woods merchants; and Alex ander Sultan, French importing mcichant. A part of the contents of the building was saved. The four story brick store No. 81 Pearl and 44 Stone street. occupied by Shepard and Farquarr, dry goods merchants, and J. M. Ilay - Jen, dealer in stocks, ready made linen, &c. Tho goods in this store were en tirely destroyed. The above three stores were owned by J. V. Greenfield! Their erection cost Intn $45,000, and they were insured for $24,. 000. The four story brick store No. 5:3 Pearl and 60 Stone street, owned by 0. Holmes, and occupied by J. and J. P.

No. 55 Pearl and 49 Stone street, occu pied by Tweedy, Mosier and Co. dry goods dealers, and Wolff and Hinrichs, importers of silk, woolen and cotton goods. Building slightly damaged, and stocks considerably so by water and removal. Tho stock of Wolff anlllitirichs must have been a very valuable one, as we have heard that their insurance amounted to over $l5O 000.— Fortunately for the insurance companies they will be called upon to pay but a small percentage upon this amount. No. 87 Pearl street, occupied by Town. send and Sayre, hardware merchants, and Boiceau and Muller, importers. The buil ding was nut damaged, but the stocks recei ved some injury from water, &c. • In relation to the origin of the fire there appears to be but little doubt that it was through the agency of incendiaries. We are informed by a friend who lives in that vicinity, and who was very early upon the ground, that when ho first reached the scene, the fire appeared to be burning in the upper part of two stores at the same time, thus giving It the appearance of hav ing been simultaneously fired in two places C 0 .17.71 UOM:i C TI 0 .IV. YOU THE STAR AND REPUBLICAN BANNER Amongst the most important discoveries of modern times in republican America is the no less remarkable one, that poverty is a disqualification for high official stations ; or in other words that General Harrison ought not to ho President, for the very beet of reasons in .the esti:11'111)n of the purse proud aristocracy and silk stocking gsntry, because ho is not so wealthy as Martin Van 'Du ren, because ho cannot like him maintain an En glish coach and liveried servants. Whether the authors of this famous discovery aro destined to receive a crown of glary or of infamy, remains for the sovereign people of these United States to de termine at no remote period. How fortunate for the illustrious sage of Mon ticello, for whose opinions and r e publican simpli city, the authors of this discovory profess such pro found reverence and respect, that ho was gathered to his fathers full of years and full of honors be fore this modern discovery in politics was made. Never before in the annals of republican or civili zed nations has poverty been considered a crime, or the poor man, merely because of his poverty, disqualified for office. Did the Romans consider it a crime in that great and good man. Publics Va lerius Publicola, whom they an such numerous occasions delighted to honor? To them nothing could afford greater pleasure than to bestow the highest honors of the Commonwealth upon the man who regardless of all domestic pleasures and enjoyments, perinea life and sacrificed fortune up on the altar of his country's good ; thus by his patriotic devotion freeing them from the tyranny and domination of a corrupt and profligate king. And shall we the boasted friends of republican lib erty and equal rights in the freest country upon earth, more than two thousand five hundred years after the overthroir of the Tarquin dynasty, be less virtuous and just than the Romans, by withhol ding our support from him who bared hia bosom and perilled his life for the pres.•rvatiun of our lib• arty, merely because ho is poor? Well may the patriot tremble for his country and Meth with shame; There are not Wanting 'hoe° who are reckless enougn to call into question his high Military qual ifications and the important services rendered his country in the tented field. • Dut this is in strict unison with tho foul slander of the venal and hyp ocritical crew who aro battening upon the spoils and plunder of the land. Out of their own mouths, however, are they condemned. Their desperate t tforts, to deprive the war worn veteran of the lau rels of military glory which he so nobly won, aro elf ctunl. The evidence of R. M. Johnson, the. Vice President of their own choice, were it uncor rob:•rnled by any other, would be sufficient to stamp the declarations of his base defamers with. falst hood. But i.f the numerous witnesses that. might be adduced to prove his heroism and valor, 1 will merely add the testimony of one other, who. was a distinguished and talented member of thin spoils party, 1 mean General Robert T. Lytle of Cincinnati, now no more, whose father served un der the veteran Harrison. At a celetiration at Ha milton, Ohio, on the 30th September, 1835, ho pays the following eloquent tribute of esteem to hi:; diatiuguislred fdlow iitizen who was present on the ocea-ion : "It is true that Cuat gentleman and myself, aro ' now, ns we have for some time been, opposed to each otl.•er in some of our views, perhaps in most, as to the pullic men and measures of the day, but j were we as widely separated as the poles, I can neither be made to forget his virtues, nor with hold from him just commendation for his many eminent service.q. Sir, I would ho a troitor to my own nat.ire, if I f.tund myself capable of dispara ging the claims of a public servant, so eminent, so well tried, and whose life has been a history of such usefulness rind gallantry, ao that of General Harrison. Rather than ro:l the temples of that time worn and justly honored public servant of a single laurel, I would choose injustice and grati tude, to heap chaplets on his brow." After dep recating the spirit of partizan warfare and detrac tion, he proceeds, "The band of pioneer wor• thies who now surround us, with your guest just named, a chief and conspicuous member—should receive nt our hands, that respect which, by early toil and suffering they have so riel,ly earned." Uut it is not out of gratitude for his "many em inent" military "services," that General Harrison ought to receive our support. We are not desi rous to imitate the deluded worshippers of a cer tain well-known military chieftain, %vile was ele vated to the chief magistracy of the nation, mere ly because of the dazzling splendor of his military achievements; the' melancholy recollection or whose utter incapacity for civil rule, is yet fresh ill the memories of the people. Wo are actuated in our support of the candidate of our choice, who is stigmatized by the venal and corrupt, for his povei ty and by way of derision termed -the "log cabin candidate" by considerations of a purer and loftier character. General Harrison is possessed of civil qualifleatiens of the highest order. Should any one ho inclined to doubt his patriotism and civil acquirethentS, let him read his celebrated let tor to General Bolivar. Had the patriotic and re publicnn doctrine breathed throughout every line of that production prevailed, the republic of Colom bia, instead of being torn by civil dissensions, which resulted in its division into New Grenada, Vemzeuala and Ecuador, wculd now be flourish ing as a united and huppy nation. General Harrison has never endeavored to cor rupt the populace by an appeal to the most depra ved passions of humanity, thereby endeavoring to stimulate them to acts of violence, arraying one class against another, Catalina and Marius like, that he might attain the summit of human great ness and erect a throne upon the ruins of the re public after trampling upon the fairest productions of creation and deluging the nation in blood.

To' present the render with his views on'a popular to. pie, it' is merely necessary to direct his attention to a few passages'of art address delivered by him et Piqua, Ohio, July 4; 1837. After an allusion to the common cant - so current at the present.day. that some of our institutions merely tend tp make the "rich richer and the poor, poorer," he says, "In the old governments of Europe, the opinion• that the increased wealth of tho3o already rich, operates injuriously upon the poor, may bo cor rect," owing to the difference in the political in stitutions of the several countries. He says, "In this country, the more the rich acquire, (such is the spirit of cnterprizo every where prevailing,) the more they will expend—and the more they will expend, the more certain 'will the laborer find employment, and the greater will be his prof its. With what different feelings do the mechan ics in this country survey a work which has come from their own hands, from thosa of the same trades in Europe. Tire - latter, in pasting the cha teaus and palaces of the privileged orders, will of ten recollect the many days of unrequited labour Prey had contributed to their erection, and the oft repeated disappointments in procuring for his fam ily, the coarse and frugal support to which his hopes were limited. The American, on the con trary, when InoltinE, , at the beautiful buildings which adorn our cities, would with immingled pleasure, recall to his mind the profits of the labor he had bestowed upon them, the advancement ho has made by their means, to the acquirement of independence and perhaps opulence—tnd would be rejoiced to hear that another capitalist was about to mime in a similar undertaking, in which his services might be again required, with similar advantages."

The right spirit was there manifested ; the fathers of Democracy composed the meeting and expres sed their determination to put down the present corrupt aristocracy at Washington. The meeting was most eloquently addressed by T. C. Humbly and D. M. Sniper, Esqrs. Tho resolutions were unanimously adopted by the mee ting and breathe the proper spirit, which is now nctusting the yeomanry of Adams county. O'Nl ON TO VICTORY. Since the organization of parties, there never has been such entire and harmonious concert of action riming any part of the freemen of this U nion, as has been produced by the nomination of the veteran patriot HARRISON, among the oppo nents of tho ruling dynasty at Washington.
