"BOYSIDO YOU HEAR THAT?'" MOVEMENTS OF THE PEOPLE.
 The opponents of Harrison and Reform in this county are continually crying out, "'Thore are 20 changes heFe-OuF majority Q'lIl be increased :! Eo such as hear these statements we would recommend perusal of the following declaration from TWEEN. FY.FIvE citizens of GREAT BEND, in this county, headed by the name of one of the most respectable leading " B. men thithertol inthat section of cOun- try: The reasons assigned for this change cogent and unansverable, and as such, we recommend them up and sent for publication entirely voluntarily, and we are informed, in addition, that there oth CT voters whose minds had undergone similar change, but who had not chosen to make a public mer Van Buren men now {" on the fence," and others who would not vote. We hear of changes similar to these in many parts of the county A clear increase significant indication of the popularity of the gallant Hero and Patriot Statesman, who like Andrew Jack. son. will bear down all opposition before him. In the words of Ex-Presdent Adams, HARRISON WILL COME IN LIKE WHIRLwIND"
 We, the undersigned, citizens of Great Bend, Sus- quehanna county. Pa, supporters of Martin Van Blu. ren in lS36 taking into consideration the measures of the present administration, view them as nti-demo. cratic, and in opposition the principles of the old Jeffersonan School of Politics Our reasons for not short concise and republican.
 I. We are opposed to large standing army fl, time of peace. .,
 z. we Ot1eCt tOSne 0uD- l FeNSnfy Syetefn as pas Cling the coStro of the mOnied power in the hands of the Executive. thereby placing the army and navy ae his unrestricted service.
 3. We shall oppose Martin Van Buren, because he is not willing to have the power of the President stricted by law which we assume is necessary to the Rlaintainance of our caninstitutiOns.
 1. We despise the idea Of reduction os wages. of arraying the rich against the pOOv making the poor man work hard for a small pittance, while the rCh are revelling in luxury. Finally, we cannot consci. cautiously support man who is grasping at arbitrary power; destroying the old landmarks of democracy, and peralyzing the efrts oG the country sustain itself under it's present endorsements.
 Therefore we shall without hesitation support the genuine Democratic nomination of Harrison and Ty- Ter for next Presidens and Vice President, beiev ing Gen. Harrison to be honest old Farmer, up right and enlightened statesman and patriot, who fought the battles of his country whle Van Buren taking his ease at KinderhoOk.
 We call upon the old republicans of Susquehanna to to the rescue to unite heart and hand in ee- vating an old and worthy veteran, who has always enjoyed the confidence of the people, to the Presden ta chair and sustain the honor and character of our country.
