TO THE DENIQUEATIC HARRISON PAR-!
TY OF PENNSYLVANIA. -
FeHaw Co izens:—The Undersigned,
unfeigned joy, congratulate you on the glo
rious result of the struggle which has just
termmntedl As far es ascertained , it is in
deed. most cheering. That the voice of
Pennsylvania would, at the approaching
Presidential Election, be for Harrison and
Tyler, no one, who knows the patriotic feel
ings of her suns, could for a moment doubt.
But that, with so little concert of action for,
and so little interest manifested in the Elec
tion which has just taken place, that election
should show beyond question a majority
against the corrupt party, that now misrules,
is as unexpected as it is decisive. Irre
prossable, indeed, must be the spirit, and
unalterable the determination of the true
Democracy of the Keystone State, when it
thus, in advance of the real day of trial,
sends forth its voice of thunder to tell to the
sister states that Pennsylvania, having over I
paid her debt of gratitude to ,one gallant
defender of the country, now hastens to re
ward another and a no less distinguished.
That this is not mere assertion, but sober
truth, the following facts will show:
In 1936, the majority for Martin Van
Buren over Gen. Harrison in this State was ;
4,864. At the Election which took place;
on the 13th inst. in 24 counties, being all
that have. yet been heard from, and - in
which both parties ran tickets, the gain for
Gen:Harrison since 1836 is 5,219. Thus,
in less than one hilt the State the majority
of 1836 is already annihilated! Be et re
membered, too, that none of the Western
.counties have ye't been heard from—that
glorious west, which knows and will sustain
her earliest and truest friend.
At the election for members of Congress
in 1838, eleven Democrats and sixteen
Loco Foco Van Buren men were elected.
On the 13th inst., the friends of General
Harrison have at least, elected THIR
TEEN being nearly one half of the whole
number, with a prospect of more when all
the returns come in!
At the last session of the Legislature the
State Senate stood Eighteen Loco Foco
Van Buren members to Fifteen Democrats.
The returns now in, show that at the next
session the parties will at least stand
TWENTY Harrison Democrats to Mir
teen Vast Buren men!
At the same Session the State House of
Representatives stood about 70 Van Buren
men to about 30 Democrats. At the next
there will be beyond a doubt a majority of
Harrison Democrats over the supporters of
the Sub Treasury, low wages, reduced pri
ces, and that general system of Bankruptcy
which was rapidly covering the land under
the administration of Martin Van Buren.
Is not this, indeed, a glorious summing'
up of one day's work in the East? What
will it be when the AVALANCHE OF
VICTORY pour down the Allegheny from
all the "Green West!"
Fellow citizens. We know that you will
acknowledge these things to be true, for
you have helped to achieve them. But in
asmuch as others may doubt, we quote an
authority which all will credit, at least in
the present case. The Van Buren State
Committee, in an address issued from Har
t
risburg to their political friends on the 16th
inst., speaking of the result of the recent
election say: "The federalists may have a
majority in one or both Houses" of the
State Legislature. THIS ADMISSION
SETTLES THE QUESTION OF
VIC
TORY! Its impudence in calling the sup
porters of Washington, Jefferson, Madison
and Monroe—the , men who have long con
tended for the purest Democracy, "federal
ist," is, to be sure, unsurpassed in the an
nals of party perversion of terms. But let
it be pardoned, in consideration of the un
expected frankness and honesty of the ad.
mission itself!
Tne undersigned do nut say to you,
AROUSE THEN,DEMOCRATIC FEL
LOW CITIZENS! for you have shown
yourselves to be fully aroused and nobly ac
tive! Bat they say, Do Nor BLEEP AT YoUR
POSTS; SLUMBER W.? AN INSTANT; nesr Nor
A MOHENTI SPREAD THE. GLAD TI
DINGS OF YOUR SUCCESS! See
your neighbors. Encourage your friends.
Meet each other in County Meetings, as
heretofore recommended, on the 24th inst.
or some other fit day. Prepare for the
30th, 119 carefully us if you feared defeat,
but in all your exertions bear with you the.
assurance of CERTAIN VICTORY.-1
The object now is not so much the gaining
of a majority, as the obteininz of a Leese
rm. Remember that you have to do with
those, who, on more occasions than one,
have shown that they can disregard the
most solemnly expressed will of the major
ity, and the moat authentic documents, and
can carry their oppression so far as to tram
ple on the sacred sovereignty of a free
State! Bear this, then, in mind, and let
your majority nn the 30th, BE SO GREAT
AS TO FROWN DOWN ALL AT
TENirr AT CAVIL OR DOUBT!
FRIEND, OF TUE 0000 CAUSE: Ba no
your guard against the devices of your op
temente to the very last! Go to the polls in
the spirit of freemen, determined to exer
cise your jolt rights, and to do your ut.nost
to save the Country! Let no cause nor
excuse keep you away. Above all things,
EXAMINE YOUR TICKETS, EACH
FOR HI VI SEL F. Bear in mind the ins.
parlance of rating the correct one. That
you may have on opportunity of ascertain
ing that there is no error in your ticket,.
compare it with the following, which iscor-1
rest in every respect, and is the one agreed
on by your political friends in the several
counties of the State.

The Paris Moniteur, of the 10th instant,

the 21st of September, an additional credit
has been opened for the Minister of War of
51,674,000 francs, to provide for urgent
expenses resulting from the increase of the
effective and materiel of the army• The

MODE lIIt9IITANCE AND BLOODENIED AT
ALGIERS.—The following is a dispatch from
Marsha: la Vallee, dated Sept. 21st:-1
ordered Gen. Changarnier, to attack the
camp belonging to the Kalifa Ben Salem
on the Oued Brindonaou. The enemy has
been completely defeated. One hundred
and twenty-nine native dead tell into our
power. We made 17 prisoners, captured
forty horses, 200 muskets, and several
mules. We had one killed and six wound

Easrzaar AFFAIR9.—The Prometheus
steamer, which left Beyroot the 20th Sept.
announcing at Malta, that after a bombard
ment °inlets days, which reduced the town
to ashes, the Egyptians evacuated the town
in the night and the allies took posession of
it. The Oriental, which quitted Alexan
dria on the 24th, makes known that the
Erman deposing Mehemet Ali had been
communicated on the '2lst to his highness
by the consuls-general of the Four Powers,
who instantly struck their flags and retired
on board their shipping. This news reach
ed Paris Oct. 2, by Telegraph from Marseil
les. The Acadia's dates do not enable us
to decide what affect this news had in Paris,
but to the opinion of many it decides the
question of a war between England and
France—as members of the French Gov
ernment have stated that if the treat) was
executed a Poutrance, there must be war.
AFFAIRS IN ALEIANDUTA.--Accounts
from Alexandria to the 7th Sept. and from
Constantinople to the same date, have been
received. On the morning of the sth, the
second ten days having expired, the Consuls
of the Four Powers waited on the Paella at
his palace, but bib Highness refused to see
them on account of his indisposition. They
were, however, received by his Prime Min
ister, Boghos Bey, and his private Secreta
ry, Suni Bey, who told them that the Vie.e.
roy had no other communication to make to
them than what he had made on the 28th
of August, namely, that he would accept
the Pachslics of Syria and Acre for life, and
deliver up to the Sultan Candle, Adana, the
Holy Cities. and the fleet; and furthermore,
that he had fursvaided to Constantinople a
respectful memorial to the Sultan. by Count
Walewski, praying that these terms might
he accepted by his Imperial Master. The
minister of the Viceroy added, that his
minister bad nothing to do with the Four
Powers, and would yield nothing to them;
but that, in the event of hostilities, all for
eigners remaining in Alexandria and other
parts of his dominions, might depend upon
enjoying his protection. Oa the 7th, Cul.
Hodes, the British Consul General at
Alexandria, struck his flag, and went on
board the Cyclops. His example was fol
lowed by the Consuls-General of Russia,
Austria, and Prussia, who embarked in the
British and Austrian vessels of war in the
harbor. This movement of the diplojaatic
body greatly alarmed the merchants, of
whom the majority were preparing to take
shelter in Malia, Greece, and the lonian
Islands, till the threatened storm shall have
blown over. The French Consul General
remained, and such of the British merchants
as had resolved to abide the worst, were
Aleut to put themselves under the protec
tioo of the Paella, who had offered to guar.
antee their safety. Admiral Stodford land
ed at Alexandria on the Ist ult. where he
remained till the four Consuls had received
the final answer of the Pacha. Mehemet
Ali received him most graciously, and invi
ted him to dine with him, but his Highness
was obliged to countei eland the invitation,
in consequence of his suffering from" Nile
boils—a distemper common to persons of
esery rank, at certain seasons in Egypt.—

The news of Mehemet Ali's rejection of
the first tdrinialuirt of the four powers was
received at Constantinople with great de•
light, as the Divan would rejoice to sae the
Pacha stripped of all his dominions. A
grand council was held at Constantinople,
and Mehemet was declared therein to be
dispossessed of the government of Syria.—
Appointments to the various Pachalics and
governments were made.
FROM CHINA. — The latest news from
China appears to be contained in the follow.
ing extract of a letter Irom Bombay, July
28, at nine in the evening, received by the
Mediterranean packet:
The steamer is already under weigh, and
dropping down, but I try to catch her with
these lines, to say that a private express'
from Calcutta has arrived, which states
that intelligence had been received there
from China by the steamer Enterprise, of
the arrival of part of the expedition in the
Canton river, and of the total destruction of
the forts of the Bocca Tigris. We shall
know the truth of it all in a day or two; it
is doubted by none.
IMPORTANT FROM CUM.—A correspon•
dent of the London Standard gives the fol
lowing additional particulars:
"After the vessels had destroyed the forts
of the Bogus, at the entrance of the Bocce
Tigris, some troops and seamen were sent
on shore, to put them in a state of defence
against the Chinese. The expedition then
proceeded towards Whempoa, having pres•
sad two Chinese pilots; but on reaching
Second Bar, the passage, far large vessels

GEN. HARRISON AND FOREIGN Estt
clastrrs.—ln reply to a letter addressed to
him by Mr. Francis J. Grund, of Phiadel
phia, making a respectful inquiry of Gen.
ElAnnisort in regard to his disposition to
w4rd foreign emigrants, the General addres
sed a frank and generous communication, of
which we find the following extract in that
very excellent journal, the Philadelphia
Standard:
NORTH BEND, Sept. 25, 1840
"Throughout the whole course of my
political 4 life, I am satisfied that no sentence
ever fell from my lips which could be con
strued into an nfriendly feeling to the Euro•
peons, who have emigrated hither to enjoy
the advantage which our free institution'
afford, or a wish to extend the period which
is fixed by the existing laws for their full
admission to the rights of citizenship•"
READ AND RERcamest.—The following
extract we make from a letter written try a
strong Van Buren man in the interior . of
Now York to a personal and political friend
of General HAunisoN's in the city of New'
York.
An arrangement has been entered into
in this State, and I beliete in all the large
States to add another name, to the Whig
electoral vote, and thus viviate the whole
ticket.
The Whig tickets are to be counterfeited,
the name added, and then some Whig is to
bo obtained to circulate the spurious tickets.
I know the party think the) can, in this
way introduce enough of these votes to
give the vote oftbis Slate to M. Van Bnren:
An honorable war I like, but I despise a
to ick of this kind."
ANOTHER CONVERT. —A correspondent
at Logansport, Ind. of the 26th ultimo,
writes that George W. Ewing, the Van Bu
ren Senatorial Elector in that State, has
renounced Van Buren and all his works, in
a bitter letter to one of his old confederates,
in which he declares "that having seen the
practical operation of the Sub•Tieasurj
system in the east, where he has lately,
Eisen, he can no longer support it, or any
man or set of men who give it countenance."
0. K. The following contradictory defi
nitions of 0. K. are from the Baltimore
Clipper. They are highly amusing:

"Why, sir," answered one of the compa•
ny, looking very knowing, "it means oil
korrect."
"No, mounseer," says another, "it stands
for orfullatastrophe "
"You're mistaken," says a third, "I:
means oil for Kent:"
“Wrong," exclaims I fourth, 'the true
meaning is oil konfirmed."
"Not right" says a fifth, "it means oil
komplete."
..It means ald Kentuck," saith a sixth.
•
"No it isn't," roars out a seventh; who
appeared to be a CoCkney, "it is• orrid

"That's wiring," says an eighth, "it
means that the political writers having ex
hausted all the words in the English dic
tionary have been compelled to resort to
single killers to express themselves. There
fore it's oil kompelled."
So the Frenchman was just as wise as
ever.
Mr. VAN BUREN told his friend Eltrrmt
that he wrote his message of the extra ses
sion "for posterity." Appearances indicate
that it will never be appreciated by the
present generation.

"The inspector of the West Word was

persons much injured. The conduct of
the Locos resembled more the actions of
devils from the bottomless pit than any thing

A BLOODY TRAGEDY. — The Olive Branch
of the Ibth ult., published al Monrce, La.,
contains the wcount of a fatal and bloody
rencontre which lately occurred in Bayou
Mason, in the Parrish of Carroll. The
particulars were given to the editor' of the
Olive Branch by a gentleman from Lake
Providence.
It appears that suspicions had long been
entertained of a secret association of rob
bers on Island No. 92 in the Mississippi.—
The whole country was rite with nccounts
of their depredations. After the late mur
der of a Mr. Webb, on Bayou Mason, it be
came the determination of the people to use
every means for their extermination. One
of the clan, a man by the name of Laverty,
was known to be at the house of Garret P.
Rollins, on the Bayou, and was extensively
known as a negro thief. Mr. Win. A. Col•
man, deputy sheriff of Carroll, determined
to arrest him, and for that purpose started,
in company with three others in pursuit.—
On arriving near the house they separated,
Colman and one of the men going in front,
and the other two to the back part. Laverty
in the meantime had been informed that
there was a warrant out for him, and when
he spied Colman and his companion nearing
the house he snatched up a double barreled
gun and rushed to the door.
Colman commanded him to surrender.—
He then asked Colman if ho intended to
shoot him. Colman replied that unless he
surrendered ho most certainly would. At
this instant they both raised their guns and
fired so nearly together that the difference
could scarcely be distinguished. Colman
was shot with a double barreled shot gun,
and fell dead, on the spot, one buckshot en
tering his throat, another chin, and 12 just
below the nose. Laverty was shot with
two rifle balls both entering the left side,
one just below the nipple, and the other
about two inches to the right, a little above.
Ho did riot fall, but grasped his gun with
desperate firmness, and attempted to cock
the other barrel. He was then fired on by
Colman's companion, who, missing him,
rushed forward and knocked him down with
the butt of his gue. At this instant one of
the men who bad gone to the back part of
the house came up and placing the muzzle
of his gun against Laverty's head, fired, and
shot him dead.

A NOTII ER M ISeISSI PPI 'MAO EDY.—The
Natchez papers oldie 9th, contain an ac
count of a fatal rencontre in Mississippi
It will be in the recollection of our reader;
that soma time ago, Mr. Richard Hagan,
of New Orleans, was wounded in the cheek
by Mr. Lyle, formerly mayor of Natchez.
Mr Hagan went up to his plantation a few
days ago, the possession of which had been
accorded to him by the decree of the court.
Shortly alter his arrival, Mr. Lyle, accom
panied by his overseer and several other
persons, all armed. as is reported, went to
meet Mr. H. on his plantation. where he
wan fired at by Mr. Lyle, but without effect.
Mr. Hagan returned the fire with a double
barrelled gun, killing him on the spot, and
whilst, the overseer was in the act of making
his escape, Mr. H. fired at him, and woun
ded him in the thigh. Hagan gave him
self up to the authorities for trial.
LETTER OF COL. JOHNSON.
MANSFIELD, Aug. 18th, 1840.
Mr DEAR &Fri—Your favour has been
received, in which you observe, that by my
reported speech, an inference may be drawn
that I am not only in doubt as 'engirds the
courage of Gen. Harrison, but that I had but
little respect tar him es a corommrnding-
General. I AM HAPPY TO HAVE
THIS OPPORTUNITY OF INFOR
MING YOU THAT DURING MY
SERVICE WITH GEN. HARRISON,
I HAD NO CAUSE TO DOUBT HIS
COURAGE, BUT CONSIDER HIM A
BRAVE MAN, AND I HAVE AL.

OTHER TERMS.
In speaking of the Battle of the Thames,
and the part acted by my regiment, I did
not intend to increase the merit of that re
giment, or to diminish the merit claimed by
others, much less did I intend to imply that
Gen. Harrison, or Goy. Shelby, or any offi
cer attached to the army, avoided duty or
danger. Each had his part to act, and I
should feel myself much degraded to sup
pose that they did not perform their duty
fearless of danger,—nor have I ever doubt
ed, that these gallant officers were precisely
whore duty called them. I regret that io
suck a battle, where our country was
victorious, that there should be a contro
versy about the merit due to the actors in
that battle. I claim nothing above the most
humble soldier, who performed his duty on
that occasion,nonstiALLANY EARTULY CON

TO DO INJUSTICE TO THE COMMANDING OF

County Meeting.
An unusually large and enthusiastic meeting of
the friends of Harrison and Tyler assembled in
the Court house on Saturday lest. The h..rdy
yeomanry of the "Yours Guard" appear to be
awake and thoroughly aroused to the importance
of the coming contest; and will, on Friday next,
strike another blow in defence of the Constitution
and the laws, that will most completely and effec

The Eleetiohs.
PENNSYLVANIA.—We htive indeed gained
a great and glorious victory in our own State.
A victory oa great as it was unexpected. Last
year the Senate stood 17 Locufocos to 16 Demo
crats; the House 70 Locofocos to 30 Democrats.
The Senate now stands 20 Democrats to 13 Loco
locos, and the House 51 Democrats to 40 Loco
focos; a majority of each branch, and 9 on l joint
ballot. We have gained three Congressmen and
lost one; our Delegation in Congress will now
stand 13 Democrats to 15 Locofocos. We have
also the popular vote of the State; the majority, it
is true, is not very large, but it will unquestiona
bly be swelled much larger when the main battle
comes to be fought on the 30th inst. Penneylva
nia will give Cold Tip from 6,000 to 10,000 ma
jority on Friday nest! Mark our prediction.
01110.—Returns have been received from eve
ry county in the State, and Corwin, the Harrison
candidate for Governor, hap a majority of near
18,000, being a gain since 1898 of about 25,000
in the popular vote. Out of 19 members of Con-
gress elected, 13 arc Harrison Democrats. being
a gain of b members. Both branches of the Le
gislature arc Whig. Obi& is safe for Old Tip by

THE ARKANSAS ELECTION foi Gover-
nor, member of Congress and Legislature, took
place on the 7th. To the election of Yell (L. F.)
as Governor, there was no opposition. The Lou

the River counties. Passengers who arrived on
Monday evening state that we have carried every
thing before us and no doubt wee entertained at
the places were they stopped at, that Fowler,
(Whig) was elected to Congress, by a large ma.
jority, and that there would be a majority of
Whirrs in the Legislature to elect a United States
Senator.

date says,—.•The •last card," as is surmised, is
nothing lees than the publication at every poll in
the Union, on the day of election, two roans')

documents are, it is suppdsed, to make their ap

[BARUOUR
Have you the Watch-word?
We are on the eve of the great battle; are the
Sentinels posted? Have they received the watch
word? Are they all good and approved men who
will not slumber on their postal Yes,—every
thing is ready; the line of battle is formed; our
men sleep on their arms, like Harrison's soldiers
at Tippecanoe, ready to rise and fight at a mo
ment's warning.
The hardy and well tried veterans of old Me
nallen Franklin, Hamiltonban and Liberty are in
the van. There will be havoc in the enemy's
ranks opposite to where they fight. The strength
of freemen is in their trine, and the cause of pa
triots in their hearts. Every blow they strike will
tell.
The right wing, the post of honor, is held by
the gallant freemen of Latimore, Huntington and
Tyrone. They have fought on many a contested
field, and won many a glorious victory. Who
doubts of the manner in which they will bear them
selves in next Friday's strife! Our word for it,
""Old Tip's" flag never waved over braver hearts
or stouter arms than 'fight upon the right.' Look
out Locos for annihilation!
Tho centre is occupied by the sturdy sons of
Straban, Mountpleasant, Cumberland and the Bo
rough. Nobly dil they perform their duty on the
13th—end they ore ',tending with their arms in
their hands, ready for the great battle of the 30th.
They are anxious for the dawning of the day on
which they may add to their former renown. Brave
indeed, will those be accounted, who fight abreast
with the sons of Mountpleasant and Cumberlane
on that day.
Ti,, 4.11, wing of cur =my is composed of the
intrepid yeomanry of Mountjoy. Germany and
Freedom. Sober and sedate each man seems,
"Yet deem not in his thoughtful eye,
Doth aught of dutsird tenor lie;"
ho is thinking of his home and his fireside—of his
country and her interests trampled under foot by
the spoilers. But in' the battle his blows will be
terrible. The post occupied by these men 14111 be
gallantly maintained; and we predict that they
will win as much glory as any of their compatriots.
The Reserve, a gallant hand, stand arrayed on
the plains of old Reading, Hamilton, Berwick,
Berwick Borough and Conowago, ready to rush
to the rescue at a moment's warning. This Re
servq is composed of some of the choicest spirits of
the land—men ready and willing at all times to
perform their duty. In past contests they have
covered themselves with glory; and on next Fri
day, thole who shall hew their way deeper into
the ranks of Locofocoism will deserve the title
conferred on the chivalric Bayard, of being men
"without fear and without reproach."
Thus are our freemen ranged. Our battle cry
is "H ' n and bettor times;" and who doubts
about the victory!
The Compiler of last week.
The estimates and comparison, in the Compi
ler of the votes cast at the late election, are pretty
much like the statements which it made before
the election. It then stated, that Mr. Cooper had
abused and vilified the Germans. Some thirty or
forty persona who were present, and heard Mr.
Cooper, swore on the book that the Compiler had
published a lie. Figures and records will prove
that its estimates are lies, and its comparison■
forged. For instance it gives the whole vole of
Berke county within 93, as the Van Buren major
ity. It claims Ihoo in Columbia county; where
the official returns show 1168. It sets down the
majority in York at 750, when the majority for
Gerry is but 463, and so on throughout.
Then fur its standards of comparison.. It puts
down the Whig majority in 1838 in the city and
county of Philadelphia at 5444! The Whig
majority in the city that year was four thousand
and four; this would leave a Whig majority in
the county of Philadelphia the same year of 1440,
according to the Compiler's present statement.—
Yet, that year the Locefocos mobbed the Whig
members, and turned them out of their seats, and
the Compiler said it was right, although it now
says that they had 1440 of a majority! Shame
on such abandoned profligacy. Who can believe
a word contained in that sheetl

to a proper sense of the importance of next Fri

horses to ride, go on foot. This is not too much

thought nothing of travelling on foot while some
sick or worn out soldier rode his horse.• A. many

swamps of the West in the service of his country;
—and is it too much to ask, that he should be re
narded fur his toils, services, and perils, by a few

that she would give him her vote; and she must
redeem that pledge. Every Pennsylvanian should
exert himself to do it; and all that is wanting to
accomplish it, as was proved on the 13th, is exer
tion. We say, therefore, once more to every one,
be active; see your neighbors and rouse them to
the contest. Provide meant; to get those to the
polls who are too weak and infirm to go them

Well done Franklin.
This county performed her duty nobly at the
late election; and she now begins to talk of "co
ming it over Adams." Well, this is what we.
like to see; and right willingly will we enter the
list with her, in the generous rivalry, of striving
which can give Gen. Harrison the larger majority.
And we say to our neighbor of Franklin, in ad•
vsnco, do your utmost, for Adams is ready and
eager for the contest. If you beat us, we will
love you no less, and honor you mom e. Onward,
both then, to the glorious strife.
To our own citizens, wesay, stand firm, and
be ready fur a rush on the 30t1i. You must not
be beaten, if you have to give 1000.
The Sun is up, why do you
still Slumber?
Friday, the day on which the great battle for
the emancipation of the country is to be fought,
is almost here. Are you all ready? If any thing
has been left undone, do it yet. It is still "called
to-day"; work therefore before it is too late.—
Fellow-citisene, on the 13th inst. you showed that
you have the power to redeem Pennsylvania. Do
it, or be considered by the whole country for ever
recreant to your duty. We shall not now insult
you by argument on the great questions of policy
which agitate this nation. Wo shall not even ask
you, whether you are opposed to Mr. Van
Ten's Sub-Treasury or his plan for a Standing
Army. You have made up your minds; and ac
tion, vigorous, continued, energetic, untiring ac
tion from this moment forth until the election, is
all that we shall urge upon you. Dut for the sake
of your deceived, suffering, plundered country,
neglect not this; for the sake of its interests, now
Ind for the future, neglect it not; for the sake of
your children's happiness and prosperity neglect
it not. •
Pennsylvania stands in the fore front, of the
battle. It is a glorious post; but it is one in which
the responsibility is as great as the glory. If she
falters !lc is disgraced. If she stands firm and
conquers she wins immortal honor. Who would
prove recreant at such a moment? Who would
falter when the weal or woo of the c'ountry , de
pends upon his energy and firmness. Yes, Penn- .
sylvanians, you lead the van in as great a contest,
and as glorious a cause, is over men contended
for. It is esteemed high honor, to occupy the van
of battle, when army is ranged against army, to
decide the title of two tyrants to the sovereign
power, which belongs to neither; and honor or
infamy is the reward tha world thin pays to un
flinching resolution and generous courage. This
is a nobler struggle than ever animated the slaves
of tyrants to stake their lives In battle; and the
weed of honor, which the virtuous and the good
will award to us, for an unflinching maintenance
of tho post assigned us in this great contest, will
be higher than was ever awarded to successful
courage, displayed on a field of battle.
Fellow-citizens, nerve youreelves•then for the
contest. Let your exertions correspond with the
magnitude of the prize for which you aro contend
ing, namely, good government under our free in.
etitutions, and a restoration of the prosperity of
the country. Bee your neighbors and prevail up.
on them to vote. Do not neglect this This is
the great object. If they have not the means to
go to the election, furnish them with them. Let
not any consideration of labor and trouble pre
vent you from doing this. In doing it you are
laboring for your country; and in laboring for his
coutttry, the patriot feels th - st he is laboring for
himself and posterity. On then,—On, to the
contest which is kefore,and strike with the strength
of freemen. Recollect, that standing as we do in
fore front of the battle, the eyes of the whole ra•
lion are tarned upon us. We arc expected to do
our duty, and we will not be forgiven if we neglect
its performance. Our candidate, Gen. Harrison,
under all circumstances hes performed hie duty;
exposing fortune health and life in the service of
his ,country; and can.we deny him our aid who
has done so much for the country: It would be
rank, vile ingratitude; and "the sin of ingratitude
is worse than the sin of witchcraft."

iItDRINCIPA L REASONS why Dr.
HARLICIIN COMPOUND STRENOTMEN•
'lto and GERMAN APPEIIIENT PILLS are
used by all classes of people, in preference
to other medicines: '
Because they are prepared from a pure
extract of Herbs, a wholesome medicine,
mild in its operation and pleasant in its
effects; the most certain preserves of health,
a safe and effectual cure of Disrarsia, or
sanwErriorr, and all Stomach Complaints,
a preserver and purifier of the whole system
Because they soothe the nerves of sensi
bility. and fortify the nerves of motion,
imparting to their most subtle fluid its
pristine tone, thus giving strength and clear.
ness of mind.
Because they never destroy the coats o
the stomach and bowels, as all strong purge
titres do.
Because science and experience teaches
us that no mere purgative alone will curd
the diseases of the Stomach and Nerves.—
Weakness is the primary cause of a host of
diseases, and by continually resorting to
dassnc Purgatives, you make the•dtsease
much gorse, instead of better.
Because Dr. Harlich's Medicines are put
up upon the ccnnriton sense principle, "to
cleanse and strengthen," which is the only
course to pursue to effkg a cure. Lastly.
Because these Medicines REALLY, DC
CURE the diseases for which they are
ter.at mended.
