ESSEX NORTH DIsrRlcr. The t,oclM trial
for Representative to Congress took place on
Monday last week, which terminated in no
choice. The votes in II towns, were, for Kit
tredge 1877. Osgood 9l9, scattering 1851. The
latter were generally cast for Mr.. Gushing
1t is time, high time, that this 5oys play
nay. worse than boys play WINS done with
in Essex North District We beseech our
friends there to consider the injury they
are doing to good cause, by their dissen-
slons. When Cushing's friends suffered
HIM 10 withdraw from the contest, they did
all that could he asked of them. They did
more than their opponents had done when
their candidate received a minority of the
National Republican votes. Viewing the
matter in this light, we confidently expect
ed that Kittredge, also, would withdraw,
and that some new candidate would he sub
slituted, who would unite the votes of both
sections of the party. In this expectation
however, we were disappointed. He has
continued to stand us a candidate, and two
more trials have been made, the latter leav-
ing him farther from choice than he was
before. If he does not now withdraw, his
friends ought to withdraw themselves from
HIM, and put AN end to the contest Mt once,
hy uniting in any good and suitable candi-
date that shall lie offered them by the other
section Of the party.

TREATMENT OF CHOLERA. In another
part of this paper, will be found letter on
the treatment of cholera, by the celebrated
Professor Chapman of the Philadelphia
Medical College, who, in addition to his
private practice. has had the general super.
ntendence of the principal cholera hospital
in Philadelphia. 1t is well known that all
diseases are more or less modified by eli.
mate, and that the treatment Of them has to
he varied accordingly. 1t is found by cx-
perience, that the remedies for cholera
which have been reported to he most sue
cessiul in Europe, have not proved equally
so, here; and it therefore becomes pecu-
liarly desirable that the conclusions which
the most eminent practitioners have arrived
ut here, as the results of their own expert
ence, should he made known to the profess
sion generally, as early as possible. 1t is
with this view that we publish the letter of
DIR. Chapman, which we may possibly lol-
ow wit b some others.

DETECTION FROM JACKsONIsM,
NEw-YoRK. Aug Dad 1920

NEw-YoRK, Aug. 23d, 1882.
1t has been for some time past expect
ed that the Courier s. Enquirer, which
has hitherto been the most thorough-go-
ing advocate Of General Jackson and his
party, Notwithstanding the differences
between the Editors and some of the
back-stairs cabinet, and the impossibility
of fgravely justifying the measures of the
administration, would strike its flag, and
in good season abandon the President to
the down-hill course which awaits him.
1t appears from that paper of this morn
ing, that Mr.. Noah, the Surveyor of the
Port, has no longer any connexion with
the establishment; and as the patron age
OF the government is no longer brought
in conflict with the freedom of opinion in
the conduct Of the paper, Mr.. Webb
the remaining editor and proprietor, an
nounces that he has abjured all allegiance
to the jackson party, and calls upon the
honest republicans Of the country to
shake off their infatuation, and preserve
the Constitution of our fathers, sadly
mansled as it has been by violence and
ignorance, from total prostration and de-
struction. 1t is a difficult thing to throw
SO complete summerset in a graceful
and dgnified way. Mr.. Webb's expla.
nation is, however, a straight forward
and manly one; and in anticipation Of
the question, why he did not adopt it be-
fore, he satisfactorily accounts for the
delay by the nature Of his political and
personal relations; and in particular by|
the position in which his colleague stood
lin regard to the Administration. We

keep pace with the Withdrawals from
Jacksonism, that occur about these
days. Nine Jackson papers have al
ready bolted in democratic Pennsylva-
mia, one in Maryland, one in Ohio, one
in Missouri, several IN New York, and
numbers in other parts Of the coun /.
try. The fact is, they cannot stand the
doctrines put forth by the "Grcatest and
Best" and his "back stairs Cabinet. -
In another article we have noticed the
change Of the Courier s. Enquirer, and

will result from the change. We now
have to notice another withdrawal. The

&r,-I see by this mornings Herald,
which is circulated by thousands through
the country at this time, and given away
and dropped by the way side-all at the
expense Of Uncle Sam-that a certain
man, who chooses to conceal his name ,
and signs with three stars, THUS VI
has undertaken to give an account of the
political meeting in this village, on
Thursday last, and to slander and abuse
our very worthy Senator and Represen-
tativc who spoke at the meeting. Now,
although some might think, from some
phrases used by this letter-writer that
HE must be a paragon Of disinterested
patriotism and moral purity-we happen
to know, here, that he is no other than
the Little Rest lawyer who writes
pamphlets about "broad rimmed
Wheels" and has lately been "reward-
ed" by President Jackson, with a fat
Office of fifteen hundred year, in ad-
dition to presents, to encourage him and
others in their devotion TO the "Hero," /"
and that he was assisted in the composi-
tion of this delcctable letter, by the
broken down politician of Kingston who,
like the old giant Of Bunyan, can do
nothing but grin at people as they 70 by
him. The "moral charactero of these
men is, we suppose; a motive with them
to detract, If such men could detrnct,
from that Of every honest man in the
community. No doubt the ono feels
sore because the people would not have
him for Attorney General, and the other
because he once sssailed the private and
professional character Of Mr.. Robbins

The Freemen of this town deserve the
highest credit for the firm and enlighten-
ed spirit with which they maintained their
integrity at the recent election. The We e.
ry recurrence of such elections is no or
dinary trial, and variety Of circ umstan-
ces of an ncommon character seemed to
conspire to depress and neutralizo. their
exertions. The extraordinary course Of
certain prominent individuals was an in
cident in itself little calculated to encou-
rage them. Where they looked for un-
ion, they found disaffection; where they
expected the counsels Of friend and
confederate, they met cold neutrality,
or determined opposition--Yet in spite Of
these difficulties they persevered in wcfI,I
doing. In the true spirit Of Republicans
and freemen they persisted in the courAe
which their duty pointed out to them. =

nosnced by unanimous vote Of the
General Assembly false calumniator.
Let these worthless 60 on with their
abuse; the blunderbuss will kick them
over as it did Potter in 1926. The peo-
pie of the State know Asher Robbins
and Tristan Burgess, Wilkins Updike
and Elisha r. Potter; and the conf
dence which they repose in the integrity
of each has been repeatedly declared at
the polls. So much as to character, by
way Of beginning. Let us now consid-
er the fact in relation to this meeting.
The letter says "not single farmer
in the country towns attended" This
is a 'riyul misstatement; for Updike was
skulking in the gallery Of the meeting
house among the "boys," and must have
known that Mr.. Irish, of Middletown,
Mr.. Cook, of Cumbe rland, Mr.. Holden,
Of Warwick, Mr.. Cornell, of Portsmouth,
and many other farmers from all others
parts of the State were present.
+. AS to the writer's "shudder" at the
speech of Mr.. Burgess, we do not won
der, nor would any one who heard it,
that a Jackson man should writhe and
sweat under the truths, at once so
wholesome to the public ear and so
damning to the parasites of Jackson, SO
boldly and fearlessly pronounced by the
peoples faithful sentinel. Mr.. Updike
might well tremble for his fifteen hun,
dred dollar salary, when the corruptions
and malversations Of this wicked admin
istration were laid open by one who had
been an eye witness of the proceedings
at Washington, last winter, and one
whose voice had so often carried dismay
and confusion to the ranks ofthe enemy.
MIR. Burgess repeated the conversation
which took place between the President
and the Rev. Mr. Danforth on the sub
ject Of Houston's assault OF Mr.. STAN
berry, which conversation was heard by
a member from North Carolina, Jack
son man and repeated by him to MIR.
Burgess. This Mr. Updike calls SLAM
der. II the very words used by the
President, repeated by Mr.. Burgess,
were "too low, grovelling and dirty for
the ear Of any decent man," whose
fault was that, the Presidents or Mr..
Mr.. Burgess, when left to
select his own language, knows and
uses that of a gentleman, well educated
and polished; but il was a necessary
duty in him to. repeat that Of the Presi-
dent verbatim, that the people Of this
State might know the extent Of Andrew
Jackson's education and dignity.
Mr.. Clay is called an "apostate. -
From what cause! Was it, like tho
apostacy Of Mr.. U. from federalism to,
democracy? He calls Mr. Burgess Al
British partizan." Who are British
partisans, now, those who have bartered
the shipping interests and the lands and
persons Of American citizens, and the
industry of the country to conciliate the
British government, or those who like
MIR. Burgess, have raised their voices
against those degrading measures, and
like MIR. Robbins, vindicated, as far as
they could vindicate, the honor of the
country by voting to reject the nomina-
ton Of Martin Van Buren, the traitor
who has dared thus to sell his country :

NATIONAL REPUBLICAN
NO Nj N Att ION.
Of Pennsylvania.

The election Of Represe entatives to the
General Assembly, and the fourth trial
to elect Governor, Lieut.. Governor,
and Senators, took place in the several
towns in the State, Oh Tuesday last, in
conformity to the provisions Of law, and
to the order Of the House of Represen-
tatives. The result Of the election, so
far as we have received it, is given be-
low, and we are compelled to say, that
though our friends have adhered to their,
principles with a manly frmness, and in
many Of the towns have exerted them
selves with diligence which the occa-
sion demanded, there is too much reason
to apprehend, that this attempt like all
the trials which preceded it, will result
in failure to elect General Officers.
In the nineteen towns now heard from,
Governor Arnold has 2189 votes, which
compared with his vote in July, gives an
increase Of 27i votes. In the same
towns the increase of the Jackson votes
is only 1856. Antimasonic increase l39.
Combined increase of the parties in op-
position 267.
We might point out, if we pleased,
many causes of this failure, some of them
existing within our own party, and ope-
rating the more fatally from the nature
Of their origin; and others Of slight
and temporary character, which the re-
hection Of our readers will very readily
suggest to them. We prefer at present
to confine ourselves to the proce edings of
our own town meeting, reserving our re-
Elections for another opportunity, when
we may feel it our duty to go into full
exposure fthe extraordinary movements
and circumstances which attended this
election, and which were so plainly dis
tingu'shabIe in this part Of the State, and
in this town particularly.
The following is a statement of the
votes and proceedings.
After the Warrant for the town meet
ing had been read by the Clerk, Henry
Y. Cranston, esq. was nominated for
DR.. Benjamin Waite Case,
the great leader Of anti-masonry, nom
mated in opposition his Honor It. Gov.

mason! A ballot having been taken,
the vote stood, for Cranston l45--for
Collins 79--majority for Cranston &c.
1t is remarkable enough that though all
arrangement or concert is expressly de-
MED by them, that every Jackson and an
timasonic voter was arrayed against Mr..
Cranston. The same may be remarked
