Before this question can be finally deter

conducted. If (ns-I have full faith they will)
the Democratic party shall determine, in. the
Presidential election of 1860, tp Adhere to-the
principles embodied in the UompromisemeaS

Presidential election of 1852, and re-nflirmed

Piti.Ten connrieneei - i s follows •
" are cern - pelted this week to record one
oftl4 most - brutal murders ever committpci in
North-Weste.ru . Pennsylvania: 'The deed was
perpetrated near the village of Ceres in this
govity . , on kriclay,evenirm, the jskitist,"
The village' of Ceres is a pleasant - town
most: of Our readers know,
and coutains much ”bocl,soniety matly
.-- • • •
wortlly citizens : But the Coot of Quar
ter Sessions of McKean county has not
yet quit th.o.businee "of granting license
to make drunkards, Land thus It happens
that one of the other kind of citizens of i
Ceres an the lstinsit:, sold 110 inipyleree
csonie sugar and cti battle of tcli.isky."—
-The result of this dal, is thus described
by the Citizen: f I
" Tiro - lielvy clubs were found near hint, l•
(the - murdered 'nano both covered with 'blood
and hair and in the vicinity sugar was found
scattered in every direction. 'The tork•attic
whiskey bottle Penn left Ceres with Was 4k:-
covered near the &My.: Re (Dunn) was found
at the nearest neighors, and within half a
mile of the scene of the murder, and the Whis
key bottle was found lemPty behind a stump
near the saw hause_.l - -
Every person who reads the above par
agraph will be compelled to the. convic
tion that this murder was committed;
a human being made i crazy with whisky.
We doubt if any naUrder is : ,committed
without some help front the same agency.
Sneaking of Dunn the murderer, -the
Citizen says :
"He is a bachelmi and we should judge
about 40 years of age...is quitO in stat
ure and certainly lonk i s like a harmless being.
as we understand hels only when maddened
with rum." •
Such, people of Potter county, is the
legitimate fruit ofiwhisky drinking and
selling. And althbughj no inUrders•have
been comniitted through its influence for
sortie tune back irt this couafyi yet very
serious injury has ;been done to many of
our inhabitants. One man, the head of
a la - rge I,s Been made a town
Charge, and his rlighttors are compelled
to pay a tai to-support hiva arid his fam
ily.' Others will become paupers in con
sequence of whis?...ey drinking; if noth
ing is. done to orevent' it. Now, we ask
you, will you lot the business of peddling
whisky, making drunkards, -paupers and
_criminals, go on; !or will you put forth a
• L
little effort to banish the cause of these
evils;
,Most
. of you Would be very glad
to have the viorjt - Ope l but , you Want
somebody else tc(do it. • That is neither
just or manly. if you want drunkard
making entirely abolished in this county,
it is your husinesl3 tohelp do it. If there .
is a Temperance organization in your
neighborhood,- give it the benefit of your
cooperation.' ,Iffthere is no Temperance
organization, find some other way to help
rid` society "from the curse of latampe,r
-ance, and sane it from such murders, as
tli oe.e at Ceres; of which we give a' full

" In the approaching contest for Pres- 1

ly to be the "battle ground. It may be
l
well, therefore, to ealrattention to the in -I
fluence which the Governor's election'
will have upon the election for President ;I
and as party usage seems. to entitle the'
West-to the next nomination for Govern-I
gr, it is perhaps, time to enquire what
w es t ern man is likely to secure for tine;
People's ticket the largest vote.
" In the State Coonoils there was n.
gentleman from the West, whose popu
larity, ihtegrity and efficient services, to
our party, would make him in our opin
ion, in every way available--the name of
- Hon. ErrwARD II..GAzZAm, of Pittsbur g '
will, in this connection, readily occur td
those whd are familiar with the men' in
Western Pennsylvania who have rendeti
ed service to the party, and in whose Ail
ity and faithfulness.the party have placed
confidence..
".At the first National Republican Con
vention which assembled at Pittsburg, in
February', 3.85f1, a resolution was pa:sse t l d
that one delegate fromeach . State should
address the ' Convention On the means of
uniting and harmonizing in his own State!
those elements of opposition which! un
combined . were. powerless, but : which, if
united, might at no distant day, insure
the defeat of the Detnoeratic party; ! ' and
the Convention called on Mr. GizzAM to
.
answer for Pennsylvania._ ,
" On that occasion; besides distinctive
Repuhlicans, and 'citizens of foreign birth,
there were thousands of the American'
party present. To each of these, nOt.-!
withstaticling the jealousies, and Fein
dices then existing, this gentleman made,
with the happiest effect; a bold, trtithful
and eloquent appeal; addressing auchlasi
friends of - liberty and good government. I
From that time the cause received a p9w.
edit( impetus.; and at the next ele.etton I
Allegheny county alone rolled up] a tpa
jority of five , thousand for the Union
ticket. ' At the State eleatiOn of that year'
Mr. GAZZAM was elected to the Senate
by the largest majority ,e . er given . ;in 11-
