The Buchanan men are getting despc- ! rate: aud is is an old adage that "desperate eases require desperate remedies." Shortly before the last spring elections in Connec ticut, Vermont and Johtvle Wand, it Le vaßte notorious that fiic Administration at Wa.-hiagton was making extraordinary ef -1 oris, including the jrre nr.* of rtxney, to secure popular verdicts in favor of sham democracy; surd it w:.e uSmut this time that Horace tlree!? wrote home to N. York his celebrated letter upon this subject, in which tie said that to carry the New Kng laud elections. "ti,e Federal office holders Lad be. u bled until tbey were white in the face." It would not all do, however, the freemen of the forth cnuid not he bought, and the administration was completely rout ed im every State. Hut these defeated pa triots never say die. Notwithstanding this signal rabuite in New England, they seem determined to try the same gar**- of frand .a other States, and on a more extensive •■cale, as will sppcir from the circular cop ied below. Tbe fates se tni to be against fhetn. They m'ended to kvy llacfc imit oa all the office holders of :1m government, svee down to village Post Matters, in the vain anddesperate hope of electing Jamee Buchanan President. But, alar, the whole feoheno lots been t xplndcd and exposed, and as we knew they will stop at nothing, w* expect to h*ox before long of an attempt TO carry the election bv tb- truly demo cratic and California scheme of Patent Ballot wiih fain" bottoms. This would seem to be naturally the next step in democra';c progress. 4t trae those mo del democrats and fort Lgn Catholics, Yan kee Sullivan, Coe* aad f-iuey are all dead, and in this the party has attained an irre parable loss, but we doubt net there are a number of others nearer homo to take their places, and perforin their several offices in the approaching campaign. tUtSuml.. !>!■ - _ the New York Tribune, aud which/*" 3 i low.-: yA Tribune "To the T.diior oj *<■ - . ,j S Sib'- —Inclosed l aonu .

Further comment by us would be superfluous. The document is so comprehensive, and so directly to the point, that it speaks for itelf. It was a lit tle unkind, perhaps, for tin? Post Master thus to expose this democratic and patriot ic scheme, but we guess the country will excuse the unkindues?, and approve his honesty in the premises. How desperate must be tire chances of a party which will resort to such expedients as thi.-l WHO ARE THE SLAXDEREBSI The legnl gentlemen of the "Democrat- ; ic county committee," who have so kiudly | come to the timely relief of the Gasette,, and who so liberally offer one thousaud ; dollars for patriotic purposes, spoiled the j face of their otherwise beautiful card, by \ the following wilful and unmitigated sl&n- | der. ' The charge tomes villi an ill grace j "from a large portion of our opponents "who arc struggling to free more than three "millions of negroes and scatter them "among u? to compete with the working and "laboring population of the country." It lias been said that "people who live in glass house* should r.ot throw stones." This is presumed to be trur, and especially, should such people not throw stones at per sons uot living in glass houses. Such con duet would necessarily provoke a very un equal contest. Such ha? been the result in the present instance. This learned com mittee accuses the opponents of Jamcsßu -1 chanan with falsehood, (how justly we have , endeavored to show in another column) and ' then in the very next paragraph utter the gross libel above quoted. The 'ten cent" charge even if furnished no fair pretext lor such wholesale falsehood as the above:—much In?.? did it afford anv when true. The charge of this committee is that ♦'a. iarge portion of our opponents arc rtrug- ! j gling o free more than three millions of j • negroer,' &c., tSiat is all tkc ntjrocs in the j United. Stairs! 1* is will known that the j ; "large portion'''' of the opponents of James | Buchanan belong to the American party, j i and it is equally well known that r,o por ! ticn of that party, at any time, or at any ' I pfc.ce _ ever advocated the doctrine so false- j Jy charged upon it by this committee. On the contrary they now- affirm, and always j have affirmed, that the question of the i ' abolition of the slaves was a local cne, j ' tvhich the Slave States must manage for themselves, and in which the free states had j no rizht to interfere. The committee knew ' this, and yet wilfnliy charge the contrary, i ! Whether it was necessary to insert this I i malicious falsehood into their card to pro- . cure its publication, w<* can not say, but in ; our judgment it twinces not otjly bad taste, but worse morals. ' It may be said the card of the committee i refers not to the Americano, hot to the Re- ' publicans If 5, if should have been so j ; stated. We do not feel called upon to i ; make a defence for tbcnr, but believe it to ; I he our duty to show the utter falsehood of . the charge as to both the Americans and Republicans. We are personally and well acquainted with several of the prominent Republicans ot this county, and tbey enter : tain uo idea whatever cH setting the negroes free in the Shave States. Nor do we know : a single ia anywhere, of any party, who : is in favor of sueb abolition. When at | Philadelphia tho Republican party recently nominated Frcemont and Dayton for Presi dent and Vice President, tbey erected a platform of prtnetpies., and eapcaially do they apeak out fully and plainly on the ; Slavery question. In that platform there j is na such monstrous doctrine as tbe one charged by this county touuuLuec. Ou the contrary, they affirm the very reverse.— Their first resolution is as follows: "Resolved, That the maintenance of the "principles promulgated in the Declaration "of Independence, and embodied in the "Federal constitution are essential to the "preservation of our Republican Institu tions, and that the Federal constitution, "the rights of the States, and the Union oj "the States be preserved.'' Such is the Republican doctrine upon this subject, spoken by authority, and en dorsed bv its candidates. It is one of the unquestioned "rights of the (Southern) States" to continue or abolish Rlr.very just as they please, and when please, and the northern states, the eas'.orn states, and the western states have no right to inter fere. Such we affirm is the doc trine of all puclify *n this country who de serve the Tiaute of a party, and the above expressly declares that, "the v ',trf,!s of the states, and the t'uion of the i states shall be preserved. We now submit it; uot to the "QO'Crt of justice*" L-ut to our readeis, Iq .jy whetbor or not these legal gentleman are not a thou sand times more gtli 1 * v of falsehood and of slauder* than are those of whom they com plain in their card, and were it not that wo dislike to follow bad examples we would wager one thousand dollars that they are so proved bv us by "clear and satisfactory proof.*' IIAR.MOSY OF THE SEW YORK DEMI OCR i*Y. Out readers will recollect that in 1818 Martin Van Burenf ran for President, and beat Gen. Cass in the State 6t New York. Ever since that time the party there has been split into two hostile faction", known as the ftard;! and Softs. It has been trum peted abroad theft a reconciliation took place at the Cincinnati Convention, where both these factions pledged themselves to support Buchanan. This cans ed great re joicing among the . faithful, and ever siuce thev have been boasting of earning New York for Buchanan. It turns cut that these rejoicings were altogether picuiature- The leaders who represented the two par* ties in the convention transfered the whole concern to Buchanan; but it is now discov ered that both parties uot only reftrse to ra'ify the transfer, but repudiate the nomi nations of the Cincinnati Contention. — County conventions Lave bcCn he'd in num erous counties' denouncing the present Ad ministration, and the action of their dele gates to Cincinnati. Autong others the good old Pemocra to County of Herkimer is in open rebellion as will appear by the following Resolutions passed there in coun ty convention ouly a few days since*. Besoloed, That the passage of the Kansas Nebraska act, by which slavery is practical ly carried into Territories once free by so lemn covenant, the dearest rights ol Ameri can Freemen ate trampled upon, the prioci pies of Jefferson and all the public fathers are renounced: African Slavery is made u national institution under protection of Federal authority; and we, as individuals, and as a nation, are thus held up to the scorn and reprobatiou ot mankind, as the perpetrators ot crimes more tyranous and cruel than those of any other people or government claiming to be civilised. Resolved, That inasmuch as the platform adopted hv the Cincinnati Convention ap- j proves of the repeal of the Missouri Com- j promise, upholds aud defends the Kansas- i Nebraska act, and eulogizes the administra lion of Franklin Pierce as eminently Uein- 1 ocralie: We, the democracy of Herkimer, ; implied by a souse of duty to ourselves aud to the cause of public purity, of free principles and of just government, hereby declare that we repudiate that platform, be cause it not only sanctions a grievous wrong, but promises a persistence iu evil doing; carries slavery into free territory, and en dorsee au administration already condemn ed by the whole country. Aud we further declare that we can support Tto man for President of the United States who stands pledged before the world to carry out the policy of the preseut Administration, and the pro-slavery principles incorporated in the Cincinnati platform; and we therefore refuse to sustain the nomination of James Buchanan for the Presidency, and of John C. Breckinridge for the Vice Presidency of the United States. We are sorry we liave not room for the j three remaining resolutions,which are equal- j )y as good as the above. These afford a 1 rich specimen of that boasted harmony ex- | irting among the New York Democracy.— If our I.oeofoco friends imagine they can carry New York for Buchanan under this condition of things, we will have to let them imagine it; but for our part we rest satisfied that "Pennsylvania's favorite son'' it> doomed to as utter an overthrow there in November, as was his friend General (.'ass in 18*48, who, if we rcoollect aright, was beaten from tighty to ninety thousand. BETTING ON ELECTIONS. The pious editor of the Gazette very kindly informs the public, merely "as a mutter oj general rum," that somebody in Philadelphia has offered to bot $31,000 on the eleclion of James Buchanan. Betting is commonly called the fool's argument, and aside from this, and the morality of the thing, we have only to remark that this Philadelphia gentleman, in the form of his bet displays considerable shrewdness. He proposes to bet a thousand dollars on each of the thirty-one States, the whole to be taken together as one bet. We need hardly rpmicd DOT reader# that the Southern State# where Buchanan has most strength, a* a general thing, have but fbw>oNetoval vote# compared with New \ork. and Pennsylva nia and other Nurtbrrn State- Uene* it BEDFORD lINUUm&R AND CHRONICLE. is very apparent Ibat this libeial Philadel phia democratic gambler has so framed his bet as to be ]ikojy to win, even though Bu chanan should, be badly beaten for Presi dent. In this wbrewdly got up proposition, Florida and T-jsas, with only four electoral votc9 each, arc mdde to equal New York and Penusy'rvania with their ti&ty-iwO votes. If 01 tr Locafoeo frionds will boast and advertiser their intended violations of law, we he pe they will got up something better tlnn this. Til IT $ 1,000 HliltlllD. Wc were much amused last Woek on reading an article sigued by tl> G .'Demo cratic county committee" offering a reward of one thousand dollar', "to ajiv person or persons who will A.ow, ly clear and satis factory proqf. such as \cou/d be received in a court t)f justi\ t} Tbat J.tULa BUCHANAN, *.*a any speech, letter, public or private pa ; per, Written or printed document or social ! conversation, ever advocated or favored the doctrine that the standard of American ! wages of labor should be tixed at te/i cents t per day." This is about as good a specimen of the game of brag as we hare seen for many a day. Wv as Well as the other presses of the state opposed to the election of James Buchanan, have again and again submitted ! our proofs that he advocated the doctrine of low wage? for the laboring man. We ! more thafr suspect that the real fault is. ; that we have proved the charge a little to | clearly for the success of Mr. Buchanan, |or the comfort of his friends. That the 1 speeches published by us time and again on this subject, are really Buchanan's speeches and arc not denied. Once more we give a ; part of one in another column of this i week's paper,and we submit to every candid reader, whether it docs not substifntiate the , teu cent charge in controversy. True, the j speech docs not in express words, fir "the wage? of 'labor' "at ton cer.ts per day," j but that it advocates '"'the doctrine" is j most manifest. Why in the speech referred j to does he talk approvingly at the com parative l-ovy PRICES of France and Ger ruttTW, aud of the u stimulou&* > thus afforded to "/A ir manufactures!" 1 And why in the ; same connection docs he say, *"■keduce our our nominal standard of prices throughout the World and you cover oiit errantry u-ith blessings and benefits? —unless lie meant to approve the European prices, and to recom mend a reduction of ours to'the same stand ardl lie w,v so understood at tbc time, he has been m understood ever riuce, and it is now too [ate in the day to attach any other incauilg to it, merely because it may perhaps injure his chances of election. This is the kind of proof uniformly adduced te substantiate all such charges against the people, ami we have beeu unable to dis cover why .Lines Buchanan should be made an exceptions But, say tijese legal gentleineu of the county committee, the charge must be sub stantiated, dear and satisfactory proof such a* icouLi be naivea in a court of jus ticc.'' A qir readers arc aware we. are no lawyer, l*t we suspect these tfegal gen thrvm of art attempt to impale and des troy the justice of the case Upon a mere quibble.

We have endeavored to make the pcof clear and satisfactory, and doubt not ii ir so, to all who have not made up their mds to dirbelicvo it, in the face of the evidince: but we ask to be excused from prodding such proofs as this County Conimitteewill admit to be clear and satis factory. But the proofs must also bo "such as \ would be jceived in a court of just ice. v — | Who evet heard of the like? How very sharp tbea legal gentlemen are' We are notfamilir with th* rules of evidence in courts of ustice; but they have one rule there abat which we have heard a great deal, lis this: "The greater the truth the greair the libel." We suspect this is the rule y which Mr . Buchanan's friends would bve his case tried! In this tbej show noonly their legal knowledge, but al6otheismartness, forwekuowof no oth er rule hich would answer their imrpose- Under tisheautifnl rule, "courts of jus tice/' sacalled, exclude all the evidence which wild go to prove the truth of the j charge—ecause "the greater the truth, | the gremr the libel!" W therefore most rc&etfully decline to submit this qucstionito a "court of justice." We have heal it said that questions of law were forte courts, and questions of fact for the jiy. The present question, as we uoderstajl it, is one of fact, and as 6tch we haveibmitted it, and will continue to submit ifto the jary of Bedford County voters, & let them pass tbeir verdict up on it. upon all others of the same sort, , at the llot boxes in November uexr.

The Pennsylvania nr s in duty bound, comes to tbe rescue of Mr. I'ucl.ncau, and labors hard aud earnestly to prove that he bus never been in favor Of low wages. To establish its allegation, it quotes largely from Mr. Bucbauau's speech in reply to Honest John I>avis, of Massachusetts. but it takes good care not to publish Mr. Bu chanan's speech, to which Mr. Davis re plied. Tf Mr. Buchanan did not, in the speech referred to, advocate as we have as serted, the adaption of the European prides of labor in this country, the Pennaylvßfcian has an easy mode of disproving it,Jn p pub lishing the speech, aud let that speak for it self. That would be the proper and honest course for it fo pursue, if it has any confi dence in the iruth of its assertions For reasons entirely satisfactory to its editor, it prefers however, to suppress that speech, and to try to divert public attention to it bv calling us hard names, atttl thereby mak ing a blackguard of itself. We shall not forget what is due to our self, and let the course of its new Editor be what it may, we mean not to follow his example, and habituate ourselves iu indulg ing in the Billingsgate slang with which he seems so perfectlv familiar. Called upon, however, as we have been by him. with an sir and tone of defiance, to produce a quo tatiou from auy of Mr. Buchanan's speech es to sustain the charge of his advocacy of reducing the wage? of this country to the European standard, We Will'grutity htm, not only with one, but lots df quotations, to that "Sect. lY he will refer to the Appen dix of the Congressional Globe for January 1840, pages ]3f>-6, or to Nilca' Register, vols. 67 aud 68, he will fiud that Mr. Bu chanan did make a speech itv the United States Senate, ill whicli the fdttowiug pas | sages advocating just shcb doctrine as we I have charged him with,- ocbm.

Th foreign French and German manufacturer imports this cloth into our country and sella it for a hundred. Does not every person perceive that the redundancy of-CUT currency is equal to a premium of one hundred per cent, in lavor ot the manufacturer.- "No tariff of protection, unless it amounted to prohibition., could counteract these advanta-' gea in favor of foreign manufactures. 1 would to Heaven that 1 could arouse the attention of every -manufacturer of the nation tu this impor tant subject. "What is the reason that, with all thpse ad vantages and with the. protective duties which our laws afford to the domestic manufacture of cotton, we cannot obtain exclusive possession ol the home market, and successfully contend for the markets of the world? It is simply because we manufacture at the nominal prices of our own inflated currency; and are compelled to sell at the real prices of other nations. REDUCE OUR NOMINAL STANDARD OF PRICES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, and you oover our country with hlessings and benefits. 1 'Tbo comparative LOW PRICES of France and Germany have afforded auch a stimuloua ,o their manufactures, that they are now rapidly ex tending themselves. and would obtain possession in no small degree, even of the English home market; IF IT WERE NOT FOR THEIR PROTECTING DUTIES While British manu farturea are now languishing, those of the continent are 'P'ingiug into a healthy and vigorous existeuce." Having thus given M. Buchanan's own smooth and polisheJ language, iet ns see i what ie the meaning of it in plain English, when heaays "reduce our ueuthal i<tantlani of prices throughout the whole world, and you cover the country with blessings and benefits." Now, what did Mr. Buchanan mean by this if he meant any thing, but that our standard of prices should be reduced to that of the hard money currency of Europe? And what is that Kuiopean standard then, to which be desired our own to be reduced? According to the best authorities on that subject, the stand ard of prlfce? for labor in Europe, is as fol lows: Woge; in Fra.utr.-~ Calais common labor ers "id per day, with board; nhd without dwelling: Boulogne sd. per day do do.; Nantes, Bd. per day, without board and without dwelling; Marseilles, 4d. lo "d.pet day. with board and without dwelling.
