DurU S. Hrovjn —Dear Sir:— 1 am deeply pained by the news that reaches me frotn your city. This sudden financial re vulsion threatens to carry down hundreds of your worthy and cuterprising merchants and business men, bringing distress to their home* of comfort and affluence, and what by many is felt as a great calamity, commercial dishonor and loss of credit. Its most dis astrous and painful effects however, will tall upon tho thousands of honest and in dustrious working men unexpectedly thrown out of employment and deprived of the mean* of support for their families. D is truly a calamity calculated to excite the sympathy of the most selfish and in sensible. Ido not profess to be able to fathom all the causes, proximate aud re mote, of a disaster such as is now upon .is. Doubtless excessive importations, over-trad ing. extravagant habits of living, and fluc tuation in the currency, have had much to do with it. \on will recoil.>ct that on our visit to the Gloucester Mills, xve hail some conversation upon the .subject of the tariff policy of the 1 country to connection with its influence up on .American enterprise and labor. The eveuts of the last few days have given to that subject an interest that it did not then Seem to possess. That the tariff policy of the government has much to do with the n— > vulstons thai periodically convulse the coon- j try, is doubtless true, intimately connected as that policy must ever be with all our ft- ! nauci.-t] and industrial interest. The very considerable reduction made in the tarifl.at the last session of Congress, must have had • a disastrous influence in bringing upon ns the present state of things, as it stimulated ! greatly importations, causing heavier drafts ' upon the country for its precious metals. It is a great misfortune that our tariff ! policy enp not be wholly temoved front the party conflicts r.f tlie country and placed upon a | ermnnent and reasonable basi*. A-ide from t attizin prejudice there is not, 1 imagine, a very wi'lo diffVteiice of opinion upon this subject aiming intelligent and re flecting tuen. The policy of imposing pr diibitmry duties, of actually destroying the revenue upon a large aliaro of the article* <>f commerce, for the purpose of protection. would hardly find an advocate at this day. Fair incidental protection, without a gro-s violation of the reveuue principle, is all that is asked or re quired tor our manufacturing interests, aud tnis should is- cheerfully alia promptly ex tended. ; No one contemplates the policy of free trails and a resort to direct tnx iiioß as a y means of raising revenue in meet the ordi nal y expense- "t the government—ceCain it is that I never contemplated such a poli ( cv. 1 hsv always l inked to our poliey as settled in tnis respect —that the ordinary r vriue i to be provided by duties upon forei.Tn iniportations,and 1 have ever favored 1 the p'iev of such discrimination as would 1 afford .!Uei|ii.ne and ample protection to !

"The editor of the (lent re Ihmooral must again oblige a plain looofoeo editor with space to give his valid reasons for refusing to acknowledge the present organized Dem ocratic party as a cou'inuaiinn of that great organ iz ition, iu whose teachings and truths 1 was educated, according to its strictest rules, from my boyhood. Four years ago, notwithstanding the party was in i minori ty, it presented a bolder and purer (Tout than it dees ia the present campaign, iu a minority, the Democratic party has nlw-a; s preserved its integrity best, but the history IOF the ptts shows, that as soon NS success crowns tiu efforts of men who are honest in their struggles tor what they deem just priuoiplea, honles of adventurers flock to 1 oar standard, and the very objects for which l,onest men contended and succeeded, are at once destroyed by a wil l clamor for promi nence ami distinction bv these new recruits. How is it now in Pennsylvania, and to be local in niv question, how is it in Centre county? lam not the only Democrat who iias valid reasons for opposing Pet.nsylva. nil bogus Democracy, and while I express that opposition frankly, and humbly, too through the medium of the press, thous and? will do so through the siieot chan nels nf the mighty ballot box, arid the re sult will i>e au overwhelming defeat totho.se who wish again to plunge their hands into the treasury. 1 oppose the present lead ers of Democracy because 1 consider them dangerous men, whenever placed in posi tions of trust—and while 1 have nothing as hard to utter against the private character of William F. Packer as his been placed by his"uear and dear relations,"' 1 would consider his (lection as th inauguration of a band of men far worse than those who pil laged the State when the misguided Ritner placed himself in the hands of Chandler and Burrows. Indeed it could not be other wise. because both Chandler and Burrow? the leading spirits of Ritner, are now the Lancaster and the Phil jdelphia supporters of Packer. There is more truth in this than your readers will at first bo willing t admit, but if it is not true, there is time for its contradiction before the election. "lii tho history of all the public men of Pennsylvania, no finer cnntrnst can be ex hibited than that presented between David Wilroot and William F. Paoker. 'l'lio form er 1 knew personally fifteen years since, as a bold and frank man—-as the champion of freedom in the midst of the most bitter apposition—a' the political orator who was never defeated—as n man who presents on unblemished reenrd—and as a man who would scorn to insult, u foe or desert a friend. The contrast is presented in Pack er's own fecord, and in the fact that he nzv tr held u position directly from the people or .'-y appointment, upon the ixpir.ition of which it did not require a committee to in quire into tome dereliction of duty while in office For these reasons, and they are only a J moiety of what conld be adduced. 1 am op posed to Packer and the presnt D macro tic 1 party.
