In fact they constitutOirrtho-titrarbein-g-,-a—com pany leagued !bother to sustain the ven der in his business. Their motives aro of -ten as criminal as there of the vender.— Surnepre:tipplers already, Others are inter ested in the.renting of taverns, others are taverner's, others candidates fur office, and others again keep the liquor stores 1,099 . 11 bv, the quantity to the rettuler. _ Thus, after .all,selfishness ie at the bottom of their pro tended•kindtiess. lfwe examine carefully , - the le . gal intentionof taverns, and the na• ture of the.. recommendations required, we will find that , many are licensed in opposi ,to the will of thelaw. The •dpplicant must he a man of go'd repute for honesty and temperance. .He must possess the re-, quistte accommodations. to entertain stran gers, and the tavern must ho necessary, that is; the recommedders ter,tify that .the trav elling is so' great and' the accommodations so limited, that the tavern under consider- ation Is necessary. The primary intention of taverns evidently was, to furnish accom modations tor travellers and Others, when away team home. The institution, there fore, in its original conception, was humane. It was never designed that the tavern should .furnish temptations to intemperance, garn blieg,' and other vices. Formerly, the trav elling was so great that there seemed to be a necessity (Lir all the taverns in the Coun• ty. Now, however, the rail r . ...s and' ea'. eels haverdimin:shed the niniM of travel. lers and wagone 'through our County CO much, that not aim-fourth of the ourphor are actually neces.ktry- The cotraequence ir, that now the great business of taverns is to sell ardent spirits. This is clearly proved by the fact, that when the experiment was - made inGettysburg to,establish - a Temper unce House, it failed, though its' travelling custom was, perhaps, greater than that of any other public house in the borough ; whilst the same house, now_licensed to sell liquor, with a- diminiehecitravelling custom, artaini itself'. May we not then ask, do .0e reeommenders of applicants fpr license consider what they do, when the, recom mend so many taverns as necessary.? Is it necessary then to have seven taverns in a population of less than 2,000, or four in a population of 600, or three in a population of 400, or is it necessary that there he 461 accommodatelicensed taverns to the popu lation of thil county ? , Surely if there be a ' necessity, it is not to neenmmodato travel.; lore. If there be a necessity to increase and perpetuate the evils of intemperance, then and only then are they necessary. HI. Our Judges are not innocent in this matter. They are appointed to the digni fied and responsible. office which they hold, that may be the conservators ofju'stice, or der and morality:. They pronounce' the sentence of the laWegainst profansty, drun; kermess, sabbatli•breaking, and all •other erimei;Which floir from intemperance.— They are not ignorant of,the evils which grow out of the multiplication of taverns.— Every Court of Quarter Sessions brings I befere them some of the mournful effects of vending ardent spirits. Notwithstanding all this, they renew' the licenses of the old taverns, and grant the same to those newly established. They are therefore partakers - of the - guilt which is connected with the whole traffic. They are not required to grant a licenee, unless they believe it to he necessary to the well-being of the commu dity. Yet they countenance the business and add the august siinction,of the highest earthly authority to the traffic, which is the fruitful source, of almost 'all the vice & crime' which are' brought before their tri bunal for judgement and condemnation.- - They refuse , to interpose the authority, which the lair has given them, to cheek • the evil in its incipiency'; and then employ the arm of the law to punish it, after it has been increased cud matured. They refuse to purify ilintountain, which is placed under their guardianship. and vainly strive to at% rest the, progress of the 'streams of bitter waters which flow. from it, and of which they themselves ore sometimes made to drink. • . If our, Courts cannot remove the evil, let them, in the name of morality and goodness, mitigate it to the extent of their - —lot ,• . :s t uccoes s where the law does not req u i re them to grant them. - IV: We - , the, people, are criminal in sanc tioning the laws which authorize the traffic. We see the evils, and feel them in-our fam ilies and among our friends, and-yet we are silent.

This at once gives usa majority - in that body ; while we may also carry Phila delphia county, with at least a chance for Somerset end Westmoreland. Irr the last House there were forty Whigs, fifiy• two Locokeos, and eight Natives. Does any Whig doubt our ability to hold ev• ery county carried lust October ? cer tainly not. To these forty we may certain ly add one member from Butler, one NMI Cumberland, one from Mifflin, while we, have at least equal chances for two others inMercer and Washington. ‘Ve shalf4hen have forty.five' Whigs certainly, with fair prospects for eight others, while on ques time atliteting the principle of Protection, we may calculate on aid at least from Arm strong and Northumberltind.

Ono is opposed to the Sub Treasury. selionle—Lo corkoism is for it. Each of- those po ilitical parties presents itself to the pm ple, by selecting candidates for office who; taro men holding their political opinions, & worn-re asked to vote for them.

And if I vate - for a man on the locoloco tickets or one who is supported by that party,—nn mat ter how small the office, I support the lo rofoco party, as a party, because the mare I vote for was chosen as a candidate, for the reason; that lie is a locofoco—that by holds their principles—find is bound to sus 1111[1111e locofoco party and abuse and op pose tho 'Whig party.

I Never, indeed. have I seen the locofoc ar ty so much at a loss for weapons of a ek. I The Whig ticket is becoming more and more popular every day. it-is perhaps ns strong as as any other Whig ticket that has been presented torus for a number of years. It w , ill be admitted by all who know them . (Including intelligent Locofocos,) that they are honest men, who will be anxious to do their duty—n few Lknovv. They will go through the duties -of the offices that the Whigs of Adams county design allotting them, fearlessly and without respect to persons. All of them are working-men, who are engaged in the daily labor of con . - ducting the business they pursue. Indeed, eve!) , thing qeems to'be 'going on smoothly; save a slight complaint here and there, which will avail nothing ; as you know the Locofocos must -raise :he _cry of opposition, even if it be with a tiii trumpet.
