CONE !-On Saturday last Joseph Todd,
Esq, formerly citizen Of Mercer, Penn
sylvania, but now resident Of Pittsburgh,
addressed the Democpcy of Pitt township
in most eloquent, forcible aud convincing
manner.
Mr.. Todd informed the meeting that
while Clay and Webster lived he was firm
and enthusiastic in his support of Wing men
and measures but now-his party disban-
ded and their illustrious leaders gathered TO
their fathers-he considers it the imperative
duty of every true patriot and enlightened
citizen to rebuke fanaticism, condemn the
wild course of Black Republicansm, and
give the Democratic nominees a hearty
support.
During the delivery Of Mr.. Todd's speech
the applause was frequently loud and flatter-
ing. We learn with pleasure that II is the
intention of Mr.. Todd to take the stump in
behalf oil Buchanan and Breckenridge. Mr..
T. is a native of Pittsburgh, where he is ex-
tensively known, and where bis influence
will be felt in this contest between truth
and falsehood patriotism and disunion, De-
mocracy and Federalism.

ing in saying that the result Of the election
in November will convince all that the eff
