The following is extract from The Address Of the
'ron Grey Club. No /. to the people Of Pehnsyvana;

ring the last Presidential contest vast proportion Of the
members of this club were enrolled among the suppor-

We did not, however. intend to separate ourselves
permanently from our First Love-" Nothing but an
ardent attachment to our now santed iavore, could
ever have induced us 10 abandon the party, 10 which
we have uniformly lelt proud to belong. That ea-

thus early our CHOICE is to afford encouragement 10
others Of our democratic friends throughout the state,
who may be similarly situated with ourselves, and to
tell them in the emphatic language Of the Book Of

The address goes on 10 give the reasons why they
cannot support the present Wing party. und why they
will sustain Porter and the Democratic party and con-
cludes in the following patriotic strain:
For this purpose we have built upon the ashes Of
