CHANGES! ONE FOR EACH STATE.
A DELIGHTFUL INCIDENT.


At the great Democratic meeting held on Saturday
last picturesque spot attached to the farm Of John
Stump Esq on the banks Of the beautiful Susquehanna
near Perryve, Cecil Co., an incident occurred of
most pleasing character While Albert Constable ESQ.
pouring forth rich streams of eloquence the atten-
ton of the assembled mass was directed to vessel
nearing the shore, with the Gag Of Polk and Dallas at
the mast head. MIR. Constable apprised the meeting
that he had been informed that the vessel contained be-
sides the Captain, TWENTY-siX gentlemen, residing
in another part of the county, an Of whom had recently
deserted from the Coon ranks and come out for Polk
and Dallas. At this announcement The multitude sent
up shout after shout the band struck up 'she Camp
bells are coming" ahd the detachment Of artillery pre-
SENT under the command of Capt. Mcdowell, rent the
air with the immortal Joves dread clamors counterfeit
IN peal after peal To convince those who were present
Of the reality Of these changes Mr. Constable called on
the genteen as they came upon the ground to answer
in the presence ofhe meeting whether they had come
out from Coonery or not all Of whom replied afrma-
lively, and thus made "assurance doubly sure" The
coincidence too Of one for each State twenty Skis
remarkable true, and is pregnant with autcipatons

FARMERS PONDERi

You are compelled in consequence Of the present ia
rlo pay from 25 to SO per cent more tor nearly every
article you consume than you did this time last year,
while the prices of articles of your production have in
the same proportion declined Look at one single sta
ple-wheat. The price a, which it opened last year
was 81 25 per bushel This year it opened at 80 cents
and is now selling at ST. Are you still willing TO be
pndcrsd in this way to add to the overgrown fortunes
of the millionaire capitalists who are engaged in cotton
and woo!len manufactures, one company of whom Qhe
MeIrimac, Mass boasts OF realizing $5O0,O0O profits
during the past Is months from capital Of 600 900,
Nearly 20 percent gained in very little year,
Can YOU farmers ponder these facts without lending
your aid to the Democrats lessen the duties othe pre-
sent tariff (which according to the showing of the Wing
organ, the National lntellgeneer will bring into the
Treasury 10000 OOO-while the expenses Of the govern
meut will not exceed $5 per year, and reduce
1t to the REVENUE standard, which is the only CON-

the condition Of abjec 5eadage, 10 which that class
subject in the old world.
For these reasons we have come 10 tAe conclusion
that we can no longer act with party, wAo are PerPe
ually warning sgain spirit OF our Institutions and
the te interests OF our people, without proving recre
ant TO our country, and mankind Frem this moment,
therefore, we sOlemny discaim all sympathy with the
doctrines aRd all participation in their doings But
while we unhesitatngy and Indignantly dissolve our
political cnnexion with the whig party, we 6nd by stu
dying the principles and examining the measures Of the
democratic party, that from the days Of that apos-
tie OF Liberty, Thomas Jefferson to the present horr
with the exception of few, who have ry unworthy
borne the name in Rhode Island, they have uniformly
asserted the doctrines of popular sovereignty and equal
rights and shown themselves heuhwavering friends Of
the people and of human liberty To this party, there
lore, openly and cordially profess our adherence;
in union with them intend to the best Of our ability,
to labor for the elevation Of James X. Polk and Geo.
M. Dallas to the Presidency and Vice Presidency Of the
United States
Before we close this already lengthy communica-
tion allow us to remark that there cause of CON-
plant against the Whg party, which, il it stood alone
and we had remained up to this hour perfectly satisfied
with their general policy would be sufficient TO make
! turn from them with ioathing and hoTor-we mean the
approval which the wicked, inhuman and abomin
ably unjust proceedings Of hespietul little yrans of
4 Rhode Island towards Thomas Wilson DoT has met
from the leading men Of that party from Henry Clay
who howls his hatred Of free principles from e stump
at political gathering, down to the drveGng wretch
who vents his impoteht malice through the columns Of
newspaper. Wewant language filly TO characterize
these proceedings suffice tito say, that in malignant
cruelty, atrocity tyranny, and monstrous injustice they
have hardly parallel in the history of the world
party, therefore, who can become the grauous vindi-
Gators Of conduct SO savage and nquitoe we are quite
sure, would neither be safe repositories of power
