From the Daily Forum
Martin Van Barren INDICATED! A
Right Merry Charcoal Sketch!

The Pennsylvanian's style of inferential rea-
sonlng is ingenious, and lis deductions would
do honor 10 the most inveleraie chopper of
logic, who ever made mince meat of language.
On Friday, IL wrote sort OF epilaph over The
political grave of the late locoloco chief, and
like all other tomb stones, the golden rule of
emil de mortus nis bonum" was adhered TO
rigidly. But says the Pennsylvanian, the
Wings don't abuse Mr.. Van Buren, any more,
or TO quote lis own atgnifed language: al
ready The miserable eleclioneerlng ISLANDERS OF
1910 are dead. No one, even among the most
reckless of his opponents, has since ven,ured
TO allude TO them" Now for the inference
This silence vindicales locofocoism from ca
umny, and Martin Van Buren, will survive to
see himself ranked among the greatest and pu-
rest OF those statesmen, whose fame is the chief
ornament OF their country" Oh the sapona-
ceous
That the Wing press should by common con.
sent drop reference 10 Van Buren is no, strange,
considering that he was SO cavalierIy dropped
by his own friends, bul does the inference arise
lherelrom ha, Van has been persecured, a,
well as "used up man 2" Not in the least
we go not Gut OF our way to smile the dead H.
on, much less 10 kick the carcass of the dog !,
Let not locofocoism lay the fatlering JUNCTION"
to lis soul, that VAN buren, can be made the
shield 10 repel assaults on JAMES X. Polk
The little magician canno, divert public aten-
'ion from the true issues, by leading il to old
ones. Had Van Buren been nominated, we
then should have had occasion 10 show him
up; but he was pronounced unworthy by his
own party friends-il was said in the Conven-
lion that his re nomination would be visited by
public Indignation, which was compared to red
hot streams Of molten lava! His withdrawal.
not on the score of expediency but of actual
demerlt, was judgment by default! Il was
an acknowledgement that The issues of lS4o
could not be supported by locofoooism-,ha,
the men and measures Of the party were equal
iy obnoxious 10 csnsure; and feeling thus. The
Convention did not hesitate 10 sneak from the
ground they had formerly occupied they sban-
doned Van buren; they withdrew their sworn
champion; they commenced retreat, and ma.

DueIins.

The Albany Atlas makes luiicrous blundsr
in attempting TO assai Mr. Clay on the ground
of Duelling. The case Of Gen. Jackson comes
in its eye, and il thus speaks of Old HicknIys
duel's and the Wigs comments on them
They refuse TO consider the camp HABITS
and military tone OF mind of The Democrats
President an excuse for his faul, or his great
public services an offset to it. They pardon
duel in an attorney, but regarded II as an un'
pardonable crime in the victorious soldier
For ourselves, we are apt 10 consider thai
man who has taken out license for the war
fare Of the tongue and who has campagned
i, in many cour. and in many a Legislative
hall, with considerable reputation, should con-
ten, himself with the implements Of his PFo-
fession, aud repel insult and calumny, as o'ser
attorneys do, wIlhou, usurping The arms ol lh'

Proceedings of the WhiS State Cen.
trail Committee.

A, meeting the Wing State Central Com
mitee held al Harrisburg, June 3, 1914, the
following circular was adopted and directed to
be published.
To the friends of Reform and good Government
IN the Commonwealth Of Pennsylvania.
From communications received from all
quarters of the Stale and more particularly
from the central parts. i, appears that fearful
aPprehenslons are entertained that if the Rev
erend Henry A. Muhlenberg shall be elected
Governor, his election will be follow ed by most
disaserous consequences. However he may
be esteemed by his personal friends, it is be.
lieved that many of the most reckless politicians
IN the State, who have heretofore been doing
much mischief, are now banded together for the
purpose OF trying first To secure his election,
and then 10 use the occasion for their own sell
hsh purposes. In The event Of The success of
their candidate, IL is greatly feared that .hey
VIII have controlling influence in Our councils.
In accordance with The wishes of their nu-
mernus correspondents, strongly and earnestly
expressed, the Committee recommend, that
meetings of the Clay aud MarkIe Clubs and of
the clllEens of every Township in the Common
wealth be held on the 4th day of July next,
aud that Clubs or associations be formed on
that day IN each Township where they are not
already formed. for the purposes of correspon-
dence, consultation and concert Of action in diff
iusing Information among The people. The
Clubs or associations so formed, are requested
as soon as possible 10 communicate the names
and address ot their respective officers, with
The number OF their members to CHARLES Glib
BoNs. Esq, president Of the NATIONAL CLAY
CLUB,) Philadelphia. Tha, Club having al.
ready established an extensive and useful cor
resPondence throughout The Stale, will commu-
nleaie with, and act as auxiliary TO The Stale
Committee
The committee are enabled 10 give the strong
est assurances of the general favor with which
the nomination of General Marke has been re-
celved throughout the State. CLAY-MARKLE.
and The TARIFF ls'ihe peoples molo-whlle
that Of our opponents is Polk -Nuhlem5erg and
Terasi
The spirit Of the Wings, and of all who ad-
vocate Whig measures in Pennsylvania, is thor
oughly aroused, and if we persevere in our uni
led efforts, we shall not only be successful in
October, but victory will follow in November
as matter Of course---HENRr CLAY and Jo-
sEPH MARkLE are the representatives of the
same principles, and the friends Of the one
should be the firm supporters of The other.

Good News. If True!

Rafferty, really stops his romancing, and makes
his paper what it should be during the present
campaign, it will be something worth singing
songs about With all his good intentions,
however, we fear his resolve 10 reform will
turn out pretty much like that of The topper who
plucked up sufficient courage TO pass a tavern

had accomplished it turned back and treated

per what il should be" we predic, it will be
quite as much as he can effect.

Old NORTHAMPTON.

Our friends in Easlon held several enhus-
asIic meetings last week, and opened the cam
psign in earnest. They had good speaking
and singing at both. A Clay Club was also
formed at South Easton, on Wednesday eye-
ning last, on which occasion some hundreds OF
the mechanics, farmers, and workingmen Of the
neighbourhood assembled together to pledge
sheir support to the peoples candidates, Clay
and Frelinghuysen.

lMessrs. Schoch q Spering:

Perhaps you are no, aware ,ha, these same
persons some weeks since, held "Poke"
Meeting in our Township, the proceedings of
which have no, yet been published in The
Lyre" The fear, that they take the same
liberty in parading our names before The pub
lie, is my only inducemenl in you troubling for
an insertion of this communication; as we wish
i. 10 be distinctly understood that we claim no
loi or parcel in the proceedings OF that meeting.
II was believe composed principally Of i,di.
viduals from Sroudsburg. There one Del
egale from Northampton who took very &C.
tive part in the proceedings, and AN informed
one from "Pocono" who figured very conspicu.

much elaled with the proceedings, and wish no

would like TO know whether the money they
are raising at their meetings since, is for The

Adjournment of Congress.

Both Houses Of Congress adjourned on Mon
day last, after session Of nearly six months,
during which time no measure Of grsa, public
utility was passed. The Senate originated a
number Of good Bills, among which was the
one TO reduce the rates Of Postage, on letters,
papers, DC. but they were all permitted TO sleep
upon The table of the House, and no. acted
upon. The Only good thing which was done.
was of negative character. We alluds to the
Bill which was 10 repeal the present excellent
Tariff. The Senate previous 10 its adjourn
ment. unanimously rejected the nomination Of
James S. Green, of Princeton, n. J. as Secre-
tary of the Treasury, in The place OF John c.
Spencer, resigned; and confirmed lha, of Geo.
VI. Bibb, of Kentucky, for the same Office.

and Frelinghuysen by an overwhelming major
iry, and our triumph will be complete. We
