•as appointed for this place came o f yes tcr-
Jay, and a more mixurablc-wcagru excuse
for a meeting never before assembled here,
r elsewhere. This used tube otic of the
strong-holds of Democracy, but where is it
in w? Alas! bow have the mighty fallen!
Their glory has departed like chad before
the wiud! The once vigorous scion of a
party that flourished here in the day- of
Matty Van, and i'olk, has dwindled info
insignificance, and nought remains of it
now but a shrieking glinst wandering over
dry places uu and down the country.
We expected from the preparations that
had beeu made, to Sec at least a respectable
gathering, and when the morning arrived,
wo looked with eager eyes for the in-coining
of the "faithful," but the hours went by j
tit l vet they carte not, excepting iiere and
there astraggiing, solitary individual they
did not as in their paluiy days, | our in by
delegations with wreathes and banners, rend,
i tg the air with shouts of enthusiasm—no!
a death-like stupor seemed to pervade their
ranks, and as they "shook their gory locks"
at each other, they seemed to say— tis all
tiji with us!'''
Hut the hoar arrived for the speeches—
and, Lo and Ik-hold! a barn-floor was the
chosen place for the burning eloquence that
was to be poured out to the "remnant ot
the house of Israel," and in this fifteen by
eighteen amphitheatre, they were all hud
dled together like a puree! of terrified sheep
w:<buut a shepherd.

the "Lion, and the Lamb to lie down to

foreign to each other as Locofocoism and ,
wliiggety to unite.
The uext speaker introduced wan Mr.
MKiraw, our present state treasurer, I be

s-ay that his remarks weiro unattended by
any thing calculated to give offence to any

indication of /rood sense, a commodity very
scarce amongst Locofoco orators.
Sncecedrog Mr. M'Graw, came that
great champion of Democracy, the redoubt
i able "(iineial," the veritable Bowman hiiu
j self. He mounted the rostrno and after a
few commendatory remarks, s; hool-boy fash
ion, en ihc speakers who had preceded hits,
! saying "xlmt.thcy bud argued tho great na
tional questions at issue so well that be
could add nothing to them," and so on, he
said lie would confine his remarks nearer
home, to our own county matters. He com
menced in his usual, stylo, by a tirade of
bilingsgate against thd "Dark Lantern Or
der," and denounced the "midnight conspi
rators" in unmeasured terms. lie spoke of
their having gulled Democrats into their
order, who were now honest and bold en
ough to come out openly and denounce
them. Among others of this class, he re
ferred to Henry Nicodeuius, Jack M'Caus
lin, Judge Hartley, and Judge Daugherty.
"But where," he asked in exultation, are
they now.' Back again in the Deiuocraric
ranks more ardent and devoted than ever."'
He then said, "I see one of these fearles 8
men before me now, ther c sits Henry Nieo.
Jemus who was not afraid to exjlosu their
shameless doings" And there he sat sure
enough, and a more god-forsaken looking
specimen of humanity I never saw in my
life. Poor smil: we pitied him, he looked
,ike"patieoce sitting oil A monument.smiling
at griof," he felt mean, guilty ami down
cast, and 'tis no wonder.
What an honor the general did lltcse
Simcsion place them in the outa
ge ry of to the American
party. But Bowman was not satisfied with
abusing and viilifyiag the Americans but in
his vulture-like rapacity, he even attacked
the venerable Dr. Schmucker, of Gettys
burg, a man before whom the talents of such
a man as Bowman would siak into an ob
scurity deeper than the depths of Lethe
itself. But the shafts from sueh a source
of depravity are harmless, aad the Doctor
unscathed can look from his proud and lof
ty position, iu contempt upon the miserable
worty that would spit its venom upon him.
Mr. Jordan, also, as usual received his
share of abuse. When his hurauguc was
nearly concluded, the vulture, like his il"
lustrous (!) predecessor Cessna, attempted,
too, to identify, Americanism with Black
Republicanism, and with him, too, called
noon Old Line Whigs to join their stan
dard. Is there an Old Line Whig in Bed
ford County who wouid join hands with a
party having for its leader, this detainer, uot
only of the living, but of the dead al.n.
But what was our surprise, when abou t
to conclude, Holy Ileaven! to hear him
make the astounding assertion that he did
not come here to abuse any one, and tlieu
actually merged into a regular Camp Meet. |
•ing sermon, Wc thought the man mad,;
but theu reflected that it was Bowman.
OL! how pathetic he got—we really felt I
like slieding tears over prostituted hu- ■
inanity We thought of Pollock's descrip- j
tion of the hypocrite, and thought, al- j
so, how " apptopos to the case before us." i
The General said "what is the use of wrung- ;
ling, and quarreling? We arc here to day (
in this barn, and to morrow our heads may ;
be in a level, friend and foe, in the dark j
; and silent grave." We thought he would ;
! wind up the concern with prayer, but no, j
another orator was yet to come; no less a j
distinguished (?) personage than Ulver J5. i
Shannon, Esq. If any poor devil deserved j
sympathy, he did. He got up, stroked up
his hair, hemmed and hawed, pulled up his
breeches, threw out his arms, and made the
most ludicrous attempt to bo witty, wc ever
witnessed. lie reminded usmorecf a new
ly fledged "Biddy" on a dung-pile attempt
ing to crow, than anything else wo could
compare him to.
His remarks were principally low slang,
and personal abuse of prominent Americans
in the county —and of the American Order
—said they fyet in cellars, pig-styes, and ;
privies, and related the most disgusting, j
blackguard anccdoto in the connection, we ;
ever heard enunciated in the presence of a j
moral people. But such is Leoofocoisra.—
He talked of the "Wooly Horse" and the
"Wooly Heads,"of Amalgamation and Fre
mont—"But oh?" said he, in a burst of'
eloquence that nearly jerked him out of his •
boots, "I dare not speak of Fremont, for
when I do 1 get so aDgry and excited, I feel
that if I had Fremont, in one hand and Fred
Douglass in the other, J would butt their ,
heads together until I knocked their brains
put." We think the prodigious effort Mr,
8. made to get up a laugh, has so prostrated
his energies that ho will Dot appear before ]
the public soon again.
However, wo may be mistaken. Assur- .
nnce is a plant of sturdy growth, and he j
has any amount of the article. His speech |
originated in nothing, was bred iu nothing, j
and of eonrse amounted to nothing.
It is something strange to us that in all
that was said on the ooeasion, though Bu
chanan was lauded to the skies, and Fre
mont sutvk to tlie opposite place, Mr Fill
more's name wss scarcely mentioned. It is
because they could not say one word against
the pure statesman. Reckless and deprav
ed as locofocoi3m is, its lips are sealed—her
metically sealed in respect to hiui. They
know that he was one of the best Presidents
we ever bad, or ever will have, yet they
have not, though by their silence they vir
tually nduiit it, the wauliuesa to say so.—
And ho will be our next President as cer
tain as the ides of November will roll
arouud, in spite of all the miserable factions
that oppose him. But I will close, .Mr.
Editor, with one more remark, and that is
that, this meeting has benefitted us consid
erably. Moral uien and Christians cannot
go with, or adhere to a party whose leaders
not only assail ministers of the gospel in
their pulpits, but who would fain, if they
could do so, pull down "high heaven" to ac
complish their purposes.
Yours &c.

Scliell-burg, Aug., 21, I&SC.
BUCHANAN ALREADY DEFEATED
However incredulous even many of our
own political friends may have been, and
some of them still be, to the fact, thr.t the
present Presidential contest is between
Millard Fillmore and John C. Fremont, and
that the issue will be entirely between
these candidates when the day of election
arrives, we are nevertheless well satisfied,
and have been for pome time p.ifct, that such
will Le the case. How can it be otherwise?
Look at the facts as they are.
Grant that Mr. Buchanan might get the
entiro electoral vote of the South, that
would only give him 120 votes, and he
would stilt need 29 votes to insure his elec
tion. Where is he to get these? Admit
for argument's sake, and we admit it only
for the sake of presenting the strongest
possible ease in his favor, that he may get
California, Indiana, and New Jersey, not
one of which he can get, and these are the
only free States that there can be any hope
eren of him getting, he would still have to
succeed in Maine or Pennsylvania, <r be
defeated. Now what arc his chances in ei
ther of these States? In Maine the State
election takes place in September, and the
result, we are now satisfied, will show that
there is no earthly hope of securing the
eleetorai vote of that State fir him. In
Pennsylvania, he State election comes off
in October, and the result will be such as
to show that he and his friends are in an
overwhelming minority in this State, and
fully satisfy the entire South that he cannot
obtain the electoral vote of a single free
State.
Satisfied of this fact by the result of the
j State eleetious in Maine and Pennsylvania,
i be will be abandoued North and South, and
the direct issue will be between Filhuoie
: and Fremont, and of the result, in that
j event, we have no doubt. Millard hill
more will then be our next President as
| certainly as the day of election shall r
--! rive.
In view of this condition of things, an,]
i the aspect of political affairs, it is already
i admitted by all who are not blinded by the
• prejudice of party, and who can sec things
as they really are, that Mr. liucliauan's
i chances ar* gone, and that his case is per
; feetly hopeless. None but those who fol
low blindly the teachings of partyism, re
gardless of consequences, pretend even now
that there is any hope for him at all. The
conservative Union loving ineaof the North
will vote for Mr. Fillmore, while a large
number of the Free Soil Democracy have
gone over to Fremont and Dlack Republi
canism, and those who yet hold on to the
fortunes of old Ruck will forsake him as !
soon ag bis inevitable defeat develops itself
a little plainer. It is already conceded that
i he will not get a Northern State, unless it
1 !e thoso wo have named. The September
election in Maine, and tho October election
i iu Pennsylvania wili show that he can get
j neither of those • States. These results,
along with hi* open avowal of Fillibuster
istn against Cuba, and of squatter sove
reignty, reduces his chances in tho South
to just noitbing at all. This is seen by re
cent developments. Virginia, which was
considered oue of the most strong iiaehau
an States iu the Union, has recently given
evidences that she will go for Fillmore and
Douelsou. The false cry at first raised by
the Democracy, that there was no chance
for the American ticket has ceased to be
uttered, or, if uttered, is regarded as a
humbug evou by thinking members of the
Democratic party.
Thus, we may perceive that the Fillmore
and Donelson ticket is the only ticket for
the lovers of the Uuion to rally upon. It
is the only beucoij light of hope to which
BEDFORD. PA., FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 5 1850.
! the true patriot can now tip Ii< eyes in
this time of bis country's peril. Though
nominated by the Amer c-r;; pv'v, h has
become the ticket of the conservative of all
parties. Old line Whigs throughout the
entire country have endorsed it, and Old
line Democrats, who * regard the good of
the country more tkd. the ; keeping tip of
a party organizarion, will vote for it. Thus,
it may te seen that our catise is onward?
and victory is destined to perch upon our
standard. It is a glorious thing for our
j country that we yet have a Fillmore to
I command the respect and cp.fidrace of the
j patriotic lovers of the Union and Constitu
tion.—Daily A'uvxs.
THE STATE TICKET.
In thf excitement attending the ques
tion cf President, we .should be exceeding,
ly cautious not to lose sight nf the import
ance of carrying our Stat# ticket. Un
less we are successful iu th# October clec-
I tion, it will be useless for u* to attempt to
he .successful in tho November. To the
first, then, all our energies should now bo
directed. Everybody knows what the mor
al prestige of a victory is with the larg
floating vote scattered throughout the Slate.
It will confirm our friends, intimi late our
enemies, and convert the uafiecidei. The
result of the October election mav be re
garded as a sure barbing: rof the turn
events wii! take in the succeeding contest.
It is a trick of our opponent-' to divert the
public mind as much as possible from the
State ticket, and to exercise it on the oth
er and mors remote confli.-t. If we'suffer
ourselves to be duped by. stigh a transpar
ent stratagem, we may esftf'ct to pay for j
our blind credulity and vcrdaßicy in defeat
and disgrace. Tho Locof.c; party is no
torious for the certainty upon which it can
calculate upon bringing into effective play
every atom of strength withy hieb it is pos- '
sesscd. It dues not rccyair. aabur w even |
slight spurring op the part of the leaders
to induce ov iv' "i'c of fti infatuated foT
; lowers to deposite Lis vote. And ihore
' fore, tbev arc shrewd enough to ignore all
j discussion of the State ticket, in the Lope
f that by so doing our friends may be led to
i believe that it is merely a minor topic.—
• 'i'he fight is kept up for the Presidency
but the fight should now begin on the
State ticket. On that ticket every ele
ment of the opposition to the National Ad.
minis)ration is honorably represented.—
There is no just ground for ca\il here. It
was formed with a view to reconcile the
conflicting sentiments of a great body of
the people; and the spirit of gonuiue con
ciliation presided over the assembly that
selected it. It is certainly one, too upon
which all men, who desire the restoration
of honesty iu the regulation of our State
affairs, can consistently and conscientiously
unite, it kno mere party ticket—its tri
umph will not be the triumph of any fac
tion or clique. It will be simply the victo
ry of the juople without distinction as to
political dilFcrenoes. The honor of its suc
cess will not hi claimed by Republicans-{
nor by Americans ucr by Whigs. Rut to
each one of these parties, and to all of
theui,wi)l be due a portion of the glory al
ways accompanying a good deed. If we
differ upon the greater question of Presi
dent, let there be no difierenco upon tho
State ticket. There should be perfect unan
imity; and if wc win the first battle, as we
j feel confident we can, the second will be
: dwarfed into a mere skirmish —because the
j fee will be disheartened dispirited and com
\ pletely at our mercy. In short every thing
I depends upon the State ticket. There is no
j use to uiinoe words upon the subject, if we
j lose it through the supinencss or indolence
|of our friends there is no power strong
j anough to enable us to retrieve the misfor
, tunc in the November election. We might
! as well permit the State at that time to go
by default, because no exertions will repair
the damage. We, therefore say to our
friends, that it is absolutely imperative, we
should be up and doing. No time, nor
work should be thought too loug or to oner
ous in order to carry the ticket. Every
thing that can be done should be doae and
quickly too. Let us abandon the Presiden
tial question until after the Qetober elcc
tiou; and if successful then, wo know that

! GOOD ADVICE FOR THE IRISH.
j sjJ?one months ago a meeting of Irishmen
j held in New York, sent a complimentary
' written address to \Ym. Smith O'Brien, one
;of the Irish patriots of 1818, who would
j have been denounced as a pirate and bandit
if bis rebel lion had in Italy or
Hungary. By some means His reply to
this address did not reach this country and
find publication tiil December last. We
jXlraat from it the following portion, and
commettd it to tho serious attention of his
riotous countrymen, wb ■, when at home,
were so ready to offer "five pounds
for the sight of au Orangeman's face;"
"There is no point connected with the
recent emigration from Ireland to America
respecting which I have felt so much solici
tude. as the maintenance of barmcny be
tween the native oitiseus and those of my j
fellow countrymen who have adopted the j
United States as their home. I trust that j
the Irish will never forget that, when they j
fled in myriads from their own country in I
order to escape the manifold disasters that
awaited them there—when they fled from
famine, from ejectment, from niisgovern
ment. from proscription, they found in the
United States a land of refuge, and were
received with fraternal welcome. I trust,
tlierefore, that they will not only evince loy
alty to the government of the Union—:ha {
they will not oniy endeavor to deserve the
title of useful and orderly cit : 2cn?, but that
they will even avoid every proceeding which
can awaken unfounded jealousies or unwor
thy prejudices."
To the mass of the Protestant Irish, this
advice from Mr. O'Brien was unnecessary.
The Irish Papists as a geueral rule, will
take mi heed of it whatever. They estab
lish their Irish papers and dub them the
Iri.-h American, the American Celt, and
any other name necessary to keep up their
seperate uationaiity, and their feet are
scarcely warm on our soil, before

admission into all our public offices. Though
t
at home, they Lad bceu sci'earuing for years
in favor of the right of Irishmen to rule
Ireland, and would use their sitilialoha free
ly upon the heads of any foreign intermed
dlers in their elections, as they intermedle
in ours, the most violent opposition to
Americans ruling America, comes from
them. I'uder their influence, a ]Hilluted
I and shameless press once applied the op
probrious terms of dark lantern conspira
tors, midnight assassins, and women roast
ers, to ail who udvoeate American princi
ples—and it is from the ranks of their chil
dren that the bands of lawless ruffians
wbicb seek to carry our elections against
Americans by violence, ate mainly recruit
ed. But they will not be allowed to douii
ueer over Americans here as they were
wont to do over Orangemen at home, when
they couid fall upon the latter five to cue.
If they are so full of rioting and lighting,
this is not the place i'or them to indulge in
it. They profess to owe England a great
grudge. Therefore, they should return to
Ireland and expend their valor in cndouvoi
ing to liberate their country from British
rule. When in Ireland, they will be loud
mouthed Know Nothings, aud clamorous
for toe right of Irishmen to rule Ireland.

that FBAXCIS P. BLAIB, that stanch old
Republican and bosom friend of Gen. Jaek
srm, is preparing a reply to these assaults
i upon the old hero s character, and we have
no doubt it will be a conclusive one. The
democratic party has both abandoned Jack
son and is assailing his ehvaeter withe bit
terness: and it is left to a Maryland Re
publican to vindicate the character and nou
o.-ty of the man whom tho democratic party
once delighted to honor.

The Richmond Whig thus hints at a
; possible movement on the part of the Slave
States to be re-annexed to England: "The
time i not so remote but that it lingers in
the memory and traditions of our people,
when England was familiarly aud oudoaring
ly spokcu of as home. If the worst come
to the worst—and wc cannot fad peace,
justice OF safety with our Yankee brethren
that time may come again!"' The Whig
evidently has never beard of Jamaica—the
fatuous decision of Lord Mansfield, that
Slavery cannot exist under English law—
or cf Ex* to i ft all.
A TEN CENT JOKE.— The Lebanon
Courier tells us that an omnibus bearing the
i name of "James Buchanan," ran between
that place and the camp-meeting grounds,
last week, and put the fare at TEN CENTS.
It went well enough for a time, but pretty
sooa the s tuie and the price began to excite
comment, and the remarkable fitness of the
two was admitted all round, with a ti'ter.—
Some of the followers of the Ten-Center
seeing that the thing was exciting too much
attention, called tho 'bus man aside and af
ter a few minutes whispering, he returned
and proclaimed that ' the fate is now twelve
and a half cents." Our Buchanan friends
wear a ghastly smile whenever ten cents
are meutioued. The eoiu should be aool,
is bed.
THE BARGAIN AND CORRUPTION
STORY.
Hero is an extract from a letter written
by James Buohaam to Duff Green, editor
of ibe Telegraph, da'ed October 16,
IS2O, and we ask our readers to read it,
and then say, if they can, that Mr. Buchan
an did iKt give his countenance to the in
famous falsehood against Mr, Clay:
Extract. —"The facts are before the
world, that Mr. Clay and his particular
friends made Mr. Adams President, and
that Mr. Adams immediately thereafter
made Mr. Clay Secretory ot State. Tho
people will diaw their own inferences from
such eon J act, and the circumstance-) con
nected with it. Th.y will judge of cans-)
es ftvui the effects,"
