which trinked down the checks OF hundreds
Every eye seemed rivetted on the speaker. Du-
ring this scene, Mr. h. remarked that one of
the happiest periods of his life was the hour

tht there are some things so tender that they will
not bear handling. lie makes great pretensions,

A STRoHo HrNr.-The congregation of
church in Maine, few years ago, in town NEE
ting, proposed to increase the salary of their
old and faithful minister TO an amount cores
ponding with the increased expenses OF living
and the increased wealth of the society. The
motion was in fair way Of passing, then to
the surprise of every one, the old gentleman
rose and begged his friends not to vote a larger
sum for him. On being pressed for the reason,
he declared that he was opposed to voting any
more money, because il ,oGs so difficult to get

were set into a roar of laughter, the increase

The conduct ofthis gentleman in running in op.
position to the ticket which he himself helped to
form, and which he pledged himself to support,
merits the condemnation Of every d,mocrat. We
will not deal with him in the severe terms which
he richly deserves but have him to be deal, with
by the honest yeomanry Of the county, on tbs End
Tuesday uf October confident that they will tes,i.
fy on that day how heartily they dcspise the man
who hccom,s the tool of few disorganzcrs 10 de-
fea, and destroy the democratic party. We con.
gratuate the democracy that the party has got rid
of NJ. Forsy,he and bis d:sorganizng clique. They
were originally old 'fedcralis;s, and came into
party for the sake Of office. Finding they could
no, rule the party, they nre determined to ruin it,
and have joined their old friends for,hat purpose,
affordng another proof that ",he Ethiopian cannot
change his skin or the leopard his spots" They
continued fedeIaliss at heart-they never had any
sympathy with the democracy--and we rejoice
that they have at last gone back to the party that
they supported against jefferson. Madison and
! Snyder. Let the tue democracy remain firm to
heir principles. They have heretofore and will
| again triumph over these attempts 10 destroy and
defea, the party.
