democracy. Of the nth ult, publishes the Of

editor, in the course of his remarks, with thu
) Lancaster Intelligencer. sdsies any one who
soeser TO demonstrate that the hon. James Buch
anan has at any time during The whole course
Of his life. either BY deed Or BY word. favored
the existence of slavery. He isa northern mar
and all his sympathies are with the north.
The speech of general Packer is then highly
Iextolled as one ofthe great discharges of Penn
lsylsania democratic thunder. The Gazette says
i much is expected of general Packer when
he speaks, and he never disappoints his audi
ence, but on this occasion he even surpassed the
Expectations OF his friends He showed him
self perfectly acquainted with the whole histo-
~ OF slavery, and referred with easy fanliliari-
ty, 10 the day and date, and design and effect Of
every act of the general government in regard
to that subject. He etfectually and entirely vim
diealed the democratic party from the charges
made against it by It's enemies, and showed that
| it always has been and is roe occupying on this
Question the same position that was taken by

Kansas.

anan' friends at the south declare that he is
the friend of slavery: and that the repeal of the
Missouri compromise was i democratic mea

the query in the following manner: He was

The Gazette contains a hugely displayed call
for "a democratic mass meeting for the north
srn counties of Pennsylvania, to be held at
WilIiamsport, on Friday, Sept &c, 1885," to
which the people s'are invited TO attend and hear
