Q5-our friend, Col. McCLrEE, Of the Chambers
burg Whg in fatly backing ont of the position he
assumed on the Adiutan General Questions says that
two weeks ago the Bedford Gazette "1aalfcto1sly
praised him " This is quite gross an error, Colo
nell as you committed in contendng that GoV- Pol
LOCK- was superior 10 the laws and the Constitution OF
Pennsylvania, by calling upon him 10 disregard and
treat with contempt the decision of the highest Court
in The Commonwealth.
Now the Gazette never praised yoH, Colonel, for
we are not aware that you possess any personal
charms calling for 'praiss" from any quarter
III the No. oil the Gazette alluded to, Gin which
we re-published from the Wing of Oct. II,
rich cq,fteutae of Know Nothlngism from the pen Of
the said Colonel. wherein he treated the r. n. party
all the rilieole they merited,) we praised ''IHE
COURSE taken by him his particular subject,
and said we were willing 10 forgive him for all the
biLingsgate he had uttered against persom4Hg
AN opinion most cheerfuly re-atirm at this
present writing. And, in conclusion, we wished The
(ao1c} A{rfcan-ioring Colouel, ''healh, long te'
and alth pleasures and comforts this world can al
fod and great prosperity in all things as4e engaged
in as gooG aud as pSre aiding to crush out
an oath-bound secret political organization"
How you could consrue this language into praise
of yourself, Colonel, we are loss TO conceive
We were led to believe from the tenor of the articles
in your paper for period of six months or more, that
you had 6ecome an houqst yoiftieiou, for which we
praised your 'scourse," and would do the very
same thing with any other man in the land who
would eaA5t the signs of repentance that you
did. Our motto is 10 give every man his due, no
tha aieh IS 1eSo of me best trlent we bave IN
the world. Col. Mcclure stigmatized Kaor- Moth
i"gsm for every thing that vile throughout the
entire compalgn and as his opinions accorded entire
ly with own, and those OF the Democratic Party
at large, applauded them and gave them place
the columns OF the Gazette aud have no hesitation
in saying that the articles he wrote and published
done much to awaken the people to d sense of the
danger 10 be apPrehended from the acts OF these id
night cORsprators those OF any otEer paper in the
State, and certainly had effect with Wings than
any Democratic paper could have had.
If the '.Falley Spi1f'' can see any thing like
''plaster'' in approving the ''COURSE" Of a Hhig
Newspaper in steaday directing its fire, throughout
40 exciting campaign, against the OF the De-
moc,atc Party, the Editor must spectaces thai
magnify strangely. If the s'fleI'' was intended as
pm, II decidedly Gat one for man of CoopER's
talents TO perpetrate and considered by Critics in
this quarter who read his paper.
The Colonel says called him sunatic,'' he
knowing the statement TO be deliberate misrepre-
sentation. In audibg to his puigar criticism Of
Decision of the Supreme Court, without even having
seen the argument. according to his own admission,
remarked, that in countries'' the man who
would attempt TO criticise paper without having
read or seen II, would be conSiaersd lunatic--and
we now say that any man who viii do so cannot JaA
short of the standard of a malicious slanderer
fhe Colonel admits that we are uoag Adiutant
General, having given the "requiste Bond'' and yet
in the very face OF this fact he demanded that the
Governor should make remorat! He says further
that the Governor has the power TO remove, when
ever, in his opinion, the officer has Jeen tailiess.-
True-but the Governor, unfortunately for himself
Col. Mcclure, and the interests of has friend, Mr..
Power, failed 10 show any thing that presented the
senblance of JitAlessness and consequently the law
OF the land rereree@ the Executive proceedings
The Col. has not told US what he thinks of making
the Adjuant General elective by the People Ii would
be positively unny'' if the man who wants 10 ABo-
LIFloNIZE the country, Quitting the white man on
equality with the coored man shouldob TO Civ
ing POWER TO THE PEOPLE-not TAos. J. Poa,- |
sr, but that power which works by votes!
To PREVENT BLooMERs.-Fhe patent pitticoat /
litter Is great centre OF attraction al the Crys-
tai Palace. II is thus described
There are four small pulleys attached TO the
waist, underneath the dress, over which are
rove small cord, one end OF which is attached,
with diaper pins, s@verally to the front, rear
and sides OF the skirt, at about the height of
the knee. The other ends terminate IN loops.
which are led into The pockets on either side.
If lady wishes TO go up stairs, she pulls loop
No. in the right pocket, and instantly the
dress rises IN front, 50 that the ascent is made
with perfect grace. No. in the left hand
pocket eleVates the rear in the same manner,
and pulled all at once lifts all the skirts knee
high.
IA coorsd man, named Samuel Ander-
'on, died suddenly in New Castle Hundred,
