Pennsylvania since the termlpRtion OF the last
session Of Congress To AN But to, these par
,;cu,arlv, we commend the proceedings OF a
meeting on the subjec, of Domestic Manufac-
lures. held few days ago at Union Town, west
Of the Allegheny Mountains. The meeting
was large and was held in section OF country
,ybsr. the people were once devoted to Jackson,
Calhoun, and Ingham. That they are no long
er so, the proceedings just mentioned, which
are 70 be found on the opposite page, declare IN
the most unequivocal terms.
Major Noah, of the Enquirer, formerly oil the
Advocate, has struck the JAG kson flag in New
York. He no longer claims the "Great State
,or the "Hero,'' but he is still Jackson man,
and srayeIy contends that IF-mind you, reac'
,r--,hat IF the Hero retains the ninefy-n'ne
vo,es which he received at the last election
and Ir--QF again)-in addition to these, he re
ceives the votes of, Virginia, Georgia, NORTH
CAROLINA and ALABAMA, he will be elected
This is not only "coun,ing the chickens before
,bey are ha,ched," but i, is counting them f,rce;
for we ali know that the votes OF North Caroii-
ma and Alabama are included in the nineiy-n'ne;
hence the superstition which the MAJOR
makes is simply ihis.--lf MARYLAND, Pennsylva-
-, Nrw.Jersey, Indiana, and Illinois will vote
in 1928 as they did in 1924, (Which most asSur-
edly they will rot do)-and if North Carolina
and Alabama be allowed to vote TWICE, then
Virginia and Georgia will be able TO turn the
scale in the HERo's favor. Such is the 1ounda-
tim upon which the "Combinatioa" stands.
\ letter from Gentleman in Fayette Coun-
~ Pennsylvania to the editors of the Democratic
Press, dated the sta inst. SAYS
"The cause Of the Administration is gaining
Ground rapidly, and it is the opinion OF many oil
our best informed citizens that there is already
amaioritv determined TO support 1t In this
county The conduct the Opposition at the
late session Of congress opened the peoples
eyes. We had, last Saturday, the largest and
mos, respectable meeting ever held IN this part
Of the country. 1t was called 20 express the
sentiments of the people upon the Woollens
bill, which was lost by the casting vote OF Mr.
Calhoun in the senate. The proceedings Will
be sent to you presently, and you will see by
them our devotion 10 the American system,
The editors of the New.York Commercial
Advertiser make the following remarks in re-
fu,a,ion of the ipSe dirit of the Hon. Mr.. Living
s,ou that the vote Of New-York will be given
for General jackson. ~.
de, Mr.. L. look round among our people,
and INQUIRE who are the friends and who the
foes ofthc administration He will find among
the former the hardy yeomanry OF the country
men who with their own hands cultivate
their own soil, and who neither expect NOT de-
sire Office from any qnarter He will find IN
the ranks of the administration, men who
love freedom for its vauc-who love their fam
lies and their country, and who are always
willing to bow to the supremacy Of the, laws;-
The men oftaents, AMI intelligence, because
they respec, learning. The sober-min6ed AID
nrndent. because they know the value OF sound
;udcmsn, and discretion in a ruler: The indus
irons mechanic, because he knows the arts OF
nesce are more productive than the arts OF war:
The intelligent enterprising merchant, because
he knows that president who is not States
man. NAV easily embroil his country in war,
and nut an end to his commerce for perhaps the
dent, moderate, sensible men, are the friends oil
the administration, wherever we go, even IN the
South Hestsrn States. On the other hand, who
are tie friends of Jaekson!-The selfish Poiti-
clan, who hopes TO carry the pettlsoggery OF
state management into the nations counciis:
the office seekers, who have not talents or IN
dustry for independence: southern people, VINO
hear phantom of instruction In every breeze,
and who think there is more protection 10
President who may set the consultation ASIDE
than under its Egis: some grateful Louisanians'
who know nothing bu, that New Orleans was de-
Tended BY good soldier: few oil the puole
characters os the south, who secretly dreau,
doubt, and disbelleve in success. All these
and those, 100, who want contracts and Tree
quarters, desire President who would very
havoc, and let slip the dogs ofwar.' All this
hos, are the friends of Jackson Well, let them
bes,. The American people will commit the
helm to no mere lighting man, nor 10 anv one
who has 70 rely upon his under officers to
keen the reckoning Of the ship. They know
,bere are two kinds Of courage; and, that
moral courage is as much above animal bra
,ey, &C statesman is above soldier: as science
