TIE C0MENC CONTEST.

Never, perhaps have the people Of Pennsyl-
vania been called upon TO participate 10 an elec-
ton Taught with so much importance as The
one now before US. The issue involved is plain
-Freedom or SlaveFy.-K. " Paper,
We Were not Disposed to underraie the i'm
por;ance Of the approaching political contest,
but really We never supposed il could possibly
outFank in magnitude all previous campaigns
That great and important discovery was rrsrry-
ed for one Of our freedom shrieking opponents
Now that II has been announced 10 Us and to the
world, we can bot wondpr at our blindness-
especially as ''the issue Involved is PLAIN" and
that issue nothing short Of s'Freedom or Slave
ry." Although a new light has dawned upon
Us. we must acknowledge that We ale even yet
little in the dark. "Freedom or Slavery in
rolved IN the contest before us--a contest for
State officers exclusively, and 10 Free State 10
boot. Wonder of wonders, What does it
mean! Are We all going to be kdnapped?-
Won't somebody inform Us, 50 that W. NAV have
time to hide Ourselves among 'slhe limbs of the
hgh-rmoSt trees"
II, says the Tailey Spirit, the issu4 is "Free-
dom or Slavery" it must be Freedom or Slave
ry in Pennsylvania. Freedom prevails in
Prnnsylvana-who proposes 10 introduce
Slavery? MOI Gen. Packer, nor William Strong
nor James Thompson, nor Nimrod Strickland,
nor the Democratic party, whose candidates
they are. Does David WiImoi intend 10 bring
''the curse Of Slavery" upon us7 Does he de-
sign 10 sunvrrt our Freedom and reduce us 10
Slavery? He does some strange things but this
would be the straugesl Of all. If The issue re-
ally is "Freedom or Slavery" as the Republi-
can paper asserts, Mr.. Wilmot must entertain
some horrible design which he has not vet dis
closed to the public. Our safety lies in prevent
ing him iram reaching position in which he
cnn DO harm to our cherished Freedom II We
pot him in the Governors chair, with Lrgis-
IainTe Of his own stripe 10 back him, we NAV
al! be sold ''ln pursuance Of an Act Of Assem-
bly," before WE are Well aware of il. We
would have been badly 'sold' by the late Leg
lslaturr, # the Supreme Court had not come TO
our rescue. We certainly will ae very badly
sold if we elect Wilmot.-- Gettysburg CompiI-

The meeting was then addressed BY Hon,
John Cessna in an able and effective speech
Mr.. Cessna was followed by Gen'l Bowman,
V he dissected the speech made by Mr.. Wilmot,
on Tuesday night. showing IFS Inconsistencies
and falIacles in their proper light. Eloquent
speeches were also made by 0. e. Shannon,
Esq, and Capt. John Long, Of Liberty, Tp.-
The latter gentleman made several strong points
and his address ELECTED much commendatlon.--
The meeting adjourned in great good humor, ev-
cry man present feeling more firmly convinced
than ever that the principles Of the Democrat
c party are true and correct and that it is the
duty of every Democrat in Bedford county, TO
come forward to the polls on the second Tues
day of October next, and make triumphant
vndication Of those principles, by voting the
entire Democratic State and County Tickets.

The President VS.. Professor siIIiman.

We publish on our first page the memorial of
Prof SiIliman and other New England fanatics,
10 the President Of thu L. s., in relation TO the
policy OF the Adminisrafion-co concerning af
fairs in Kansas, and also Mn. BUcHANAN's re-
ply 10 the same. We commend the correspon-
drnce to the careful Prrosal Of every conscirn-
tious citizen Of Bedford county. OLD Buck
takes occasion 10 hit the abolition memoralists
some severe blows in answer to their prayer
Indeed, Prof Silnan who is the putative faith
er of this bantlng Of New England fanaticism,
has seemingly very suddenly become ashamed
Of its paternity since the Presidents scathing
reply. and is out in letter in the NJ Y. Trib-
"ne, disclaiming the authorship of the memo

With this action, the Fillmore committee adj
ournrd, and thus not only left the s'Straight
Fillmore Electoral Ticket in the field but a.
dopted it as THE Ticket 10 be supported by the
friends Of Fillmore and DoneIsou. and that, too,
with the approving voice of VIM. H. Koontz.
But behold the sequel A day, or two, subse-
quent TO this meeting Of the Fillmore Commit
tee, this same VIM. H. Koontz who had agreed
that the "Straight Fillmore Electoral Ticket"
was the one tina, should receive the support Of
the Fillmore men Of Pennsylvania, went, side
by side, with FIR. JORDAN, into "Buzzard
Feast Convention Of the two Fremont Com
mittees, aud assisted in forming that most
sbrewdly planned of ALL political gulI-traPs,
the Abolition ''Union Electoral Ticket"
Nor did his labors for the benefit of
t the Fremont party, end here. He went about
from place to place, making speeches ln favor
of the ''Union Electoral Ticket, F." and denoun-
cing the "Straight Ticket which he himself
had endorsed. He " vrote and. published letter
in which be acknowledged that he met with
the Fremont Committees, and took part in form
ing the 'Union Electoral Ticket, and 10 which
he tried to defend that Ticket and said that the
logic Of the ''Sfraigh .fmericanS' IN opposing
sURion" pith the .4boiaioaists, to him 'sa-
Uored Uery considerably Of corruption and DIS
honesty"
Such are some of the tergiveFsations, somer-
settings, gronnd-and-lofty tumblings, shiftings
and turnings in politics, performed by the pres
ent Abolition candidate for Senator. We ask
the honest and intelligent people Of Bedford
connty,--is such man worthy of your sup
port? Will you, can you, send such bundle
Of inconsistencies to Harrisburg as the repre-
sentative Of your political sentiments?

sECTloxiLISM-Northqrn aud Southern.

The Abolition agilalors have made il point
in their elrctlonerring schemes, ever since the
inception of Ma. BUcHANAN's Administration,
to condemn in Severest terms the policy of the
President in relation 10 affairs in Kansas They
accuse him of being even more pro-sIavpTy in
bis tendencies than Ma PIERCE was, and charge
him with using all the power Of his high Of
fee for the purpose of introducing into that
Territory, the ''pecuiiar institution" OF the
South. They curse him as "Northern dough
face" ''trucker to the South, "pliant tool
ofthe slave power,'' exhaustin2 all the oppro-
briouS epihets ever invented for the vituprra-
ton Of national men and measures, in their
shameful abuse of our noble Chief Magistrate.
And the vehemence with which they do This
the bitterness with which they utter their a.
nathemas-would almost lead one to believe
that they are sincere in doing 50. But glance
at the state of things in the South, will at once
suffice to dispel such an illusion. When we
turn from the mad ravIngs of the Northern Sec
tonalists and listen for moment to the buster
| ing tanfaronade of their Southern co-Workers:
when We have Theodore Parker and his com
/ peers damning the Administration for trging
I tas they saw to make Kansas q Siaue State and
give cur attention to Lawrence NJ. Keitt and
/ his Southern svmI athsrrs whilst they reyi1
/ the President for endeororing-(as they saw to
/ nuke Kansas q Free State; what conclusion can
we come to, but that there are men and factions.
both in the North and South, whose only object
/ is the dissolution of tie Uaioa, who, therefore,
agitate sectional issurs without cause; and who,
consequently, are hypocritical in their loud
! professions OF attachment 10 Freedom, and insin-
cert in their imputation of misdemeanor in Of
/ fee 10 the National Executive! This dissatis-
faction with Mr.. BUcHANAN's course, both on
the part of the Abolltnnists and the violent
Pro Slavery men, shows plainly enongh that
neither party receives any lavors at the hands
ofthe President. 1t shows that Instead Of be-
ing partial 10 either of them, be lrpads straight
forward in the path of duty, regardless Of every
interest save that Of the nation at large.
The subject IN hand reminds Us Of story
told of certain Justice of the Peace who, in
speaking Of bis official life, remarked, that he
never was certain that he had rendered lust
decision except once, and that was, acben Both
plaintiff and defendant arere dissatisfied rith
his judgment. Mr.. Buchanan can congratulate
himself in similar way, for the crazy extrem-
ests on both sides Of the Slavery question, are
dlspease2 with bis administration.

Another Abolition Ele riiCneering Scheme
Defeated.

The Abolitonists are tufionsly desperate since
they find that the cbances for eIecting any OF
the candidates on their county ticket, are even
simmer than they were last fall, when the D~m-
ocratic ticket swept every thing before it, and
the consequence isthat ike maddpned srrpents
they spout forth all kinds Of venom which, how
ever, invariably falls back upon their own pro-
digious ears. Their tongues are foul with SLAM
ders against Democratic citiz-ns and officers, but
they retail their faIsehoods only to see them re-
futed as fast as they fall from their lips. They
made base and unmanly assault in their organ,
last week upon the Board Of Commissioners and
their Clerk, surprising doubtless, that their boss
politicians throughout the county would be en-
aolrd to make capital out of it. Their bastard
project is most siznaIIy defeated by the folio W.
ing communication from Esq Nicodemus to
which we ask the attention Of our readers
