A Fizzle Ont.

A few days before the meeting Of the Locofoco,
State Convention, the Locofocos of Harrisburg is
sued mammoth hand. bill for Grand State Mass
Meeting ofthe Democracy, in the market Square,
on the Evening of Wednesday, August 3Oth. 1t
was printed on an immense mammoth sheet, about
l2 feet by 6 feet in dimensions, and with types a
foot in length. We lnvoluntarily trembled when
should be in proportion to the size of the hand
bill, it would certainly be a rouser. Well, the
day came-we awaited in fear to see the Democ.
racy pouring into the town like an army with
banners. The morning cars arrived but not the
Democracy. The afternoon train came but To-,
still no Democracy. The afternoon passed away.
and evening came, the appointed time for the gath
erng. Still not sound was heard, not note of
preparation greeted our ears. We hurried into
Market Square-butn no lanterns, resplendent with
Cass in all his fatness, or Butler in all his uglness,
appeared-darkness, like a pail overshadowed the
speakers stand-the Democracy were non est an
ventus. We began "to breethe freer and deeper"
but we checked our rejoicings as premature,
The morrow came and with it came the Wing
masses, in countless numbers, from every point of
the compass but still no g Democracy" In the
course of the day, the speakers stand disappeared
Grand Mass Meeting of the
Cass Democracy had . tizsled out" and the lead
ers mizzled home, with fear and trembling Poor
Cass ! thy days are numbered. - Telegraph.

Governor JohnSton'S visit to our section OF coun-

the Wing cause. He has won 70. himself many
friends, who take deep interest in his election
who before their acquaintance with him. were
lukewarm His speeches have been able and
strong discussions of principles, without a word
that could give offence to the most sensitive op.
ponent. He was received at Allentown Lehigh
county with great enthusiasm, where he spoke both

At Bethlehem the citizens were in waiting in front
of the Sun Hotel and npon his arrival he was re-
ceived with the music of the fine band for which
that borough is so famed. He addressed large
audience from the porch of the hotel, in an able
and most acceptable speech, and then visited the
seminary, church, and other points Of interest
When approaching Easton he was met by fine
band of music who escorted him to Mrs. Whites
Hotel, where our favorite Easton Band, welcomed
him. Crouds of citizens called upon him during
the afternoon, and all were highly pleased and de-

given full account. On Saturday the Governor

Possessed of fine appearance, pleasing manners
and strong, judicous intellect, Gov. Johnston cali
not fail to be a favorte wherever he goes. We
now have every confidence in his election The
people see he is capable and honest and are desi-
rous that he shall have fair trial at the head of
our state affars.-WMg.

Congressman.

The Locofocos of this Congressional District
have been at it hard to out-maneuvre each other
in the selection of their favorite, as candidate
for Congress at the October election. The contest
has been principally between Hamlin, Of Wayne,
NJ. M. Dimmick of Monroe, and Asa Packer, of
Carbon. Mr.. Dimmick, has already secured the
Conferees of Northampton and Monroe, and will
no doubt get the nomination.
The Convention meets in Stroudsburg on Mon

The Duty OS all Good Wings I'm the
Present EmergencY.

While we have encouraging accounts from
abroad. our friends should not suffer themselves
10 neglect their own political duties in their
own Stale and District However confiden,
we may feel Of carrying any State for the
Wings. we must remember that no State will
carry ITSELF We mus, employ the usual means;
We must perfect and extend our organization
we mus, circulate political information and
we must see that The foil Wing vote is brough.
TO the polls There is ample time 10 do all this.
get there as no time to spare. none to be wasted
in inactivity. EVERY NAN HAS a DUTY To
PERFORM; every Whig should act as self
constituted committee, aud should make il his
chief business for the coming two months to
help elect TAYLOR and FILLxcRE. He can
do no other business half SO profitable. No
man who 10 interested in The prosperity OF his
country can do any Thing half so pro6sable.
from this day .ii the 9TH of November, as To-
devote himself TO politics.
When the nomination Of General TAEtoR
was frs. announced the Wing parry seemedlo
think That the election was already won, sad
that they had nothing TO do except 10 vote
such of them as nigh, find 1t conyenlent-ir,
November and some seemed 10 think that IL
was ho'oiy necessary io 10 siis, out tild' Oho>
Wing would count sgains. as many Locofocos-
as one American did against Mexicans a, Bus.,
ma Vista. They though, that the Harrison cam
psign was to be Tough. over again, bu, they for
got that the Harrison campaign did not fight
itself. They forgot the extensive means which
were employed to carry ,ha, election: how she
whole body Of the Wing party gave themselves
up to politics, and did no other business. The
same energy, the same exertions now will ac-
compIish the same results and lsllessness and
inactivity now will accomplish phat hstlessness
and activity Doald haue accomplished then. The
Wings are jus. beginning to find out their mis-
take; they are jus, beginning to see that, if
they mean TO elect General TAYLOR, they must
work for il: and. having come to .ha, wise
conclusion, Wa have no doubt that they will fol-
low j. up with the necessary exeriions. Les
US avail ourselves of the good feeling which is;
now starting. of the enthusiasm which is kind
ling all over the land. and glorious triumph
for the country will reward our efforts Prov.

Gov Johnston, being loudly called for, came
forward and addressed the meeting with extraor-
dinary ability and eloquence-dwelling upon the
Importance of arresting the downward progress of
our national government. and the corrupting sys-
tenn by which the party in power is seeking to
perpetuate its rule He contended most earnest
ly for the protective policy, which has become
question peculiar to the Whig party, essential to
the interests of Pennsylvania, and to the perma-
nent prosperity and independence of our whole
people. His opposition to the extension of sla-
very was expressed in the most decided and en-
phatic nanner-contending that Pennsylvanias
ancient policy on this question must now prevail
