What others Think of Us,

The Newark Daily Mercury says that
in Pennsylvania last fall Mr.. Buchanan
received $50, 500 votes, Fremont 147 ,447, :,
and Fillmore Counting his Union votes
and the Straight ticket S2,227. Thus
Pennsylvania proved itself much sounder
on the question of freedom than New Jcr-
scy, although there Mr.. Fremont received
1000 more votes than Mr.. Fillmore. "But
Mr. Wilmot has now been nominated, and
it is estimated by his friends that he can
poll all the Uuion votes of last fall, which
we're over 200, 900, and gain considera-
BILE portion of the straight Fillmore vote.
1t is believed that large portion of the
vote for Mr.. Buchanan was fraudulent,
brought out by the immense expenditure
of money raised for that State, and that
no such vote can be approximated again.
The prospect Of success grows every day
better. 1t would certainly be triumph
worth recording to chronicle the election of
David Wilmot as Governor of Pennsylva-
MA With Bissell in Illinois, Chase in
Ohio, King in New York, Banks in Massa-
chusetts, and Wilmot il Pennsylvania, the
great States of the North would present
an array of talent aud high principle never
before cqualled in the history of the coun.
try."

An Address to the New Cent.

What shall name thee wretcbed little mitel
Who comest thus of time and out of place,
With neither Colds warm glow, nor silv-rs white,
! Nor even old copper's honest, red Dutch face!
Thou cream faced halfbrred! the best name Of any
That We can give thee, is-MULATTo PENNY.
And what queer thing is this upon thy facet
An eagle Then eagle let it be!
Afowl with close plucked wings, and in disgrace,
Fit emblem of our crippled liberty!
our eagle used to spread mighty wing;
Can this be he, this crippled, futterins things
With hen-ke p;nions here he seems to try
To soar in pride Of freedom, but in vain;
No wonder that he fails to high
Who trails his clumsy long legs like crane.
All right, Though too short winged storms to brave
His legs are long enough to catch a slave!
Thy copper predecessor proudly wore
headof Freedom with her eagle eye,
Who n her diadem exulting bore
One spirit kindiing waichwOrd-LBERTr.
But bright word dropt-pot the head remains
Yet why retain head when lost the brains
What art thou made off That is plain to see!
A mixture Of base mctais-a vile hani
Just like the party that invented thee,
Thou bogus, mongrei, counterfeit and sham!
Like the old fo,ies of the basest class,
Together fused to Locofoco brass.
Thy apparent at frst sight
Poor foreigners, the purblind and the old,
MAY have thee palmcd them by candle light,
Instead of silver dimes yellow gold;
So that, like Locofocosm, thou may st defend
Thy title to be called the "poor mans Jr0nd!"
But 90, thou sickiy looking little pest
hate the very color thou art paintedi
poltroon hue thou dearest at the best.
Like Franklin Pierce when he in battle tainted
Go to thy grave, and quickly be forgotten,
Like Douglas, Pierce, Buchanan-dead and rotten!

THE CHRONICLE.
MONDAY. OCT. ;. 1857.
Do not fy to the Citv!

The Nct0 IorL; Tribune, with that prac.
teal humanitarian character which eve:
charactcrzes it, AGAIN exhorts the poor
and destitutc-those who have not work or
money-to crowd no; into the cities or the
large towns. There is more Of means and
more of charity, always, in country than
III city, p:oportionally. Nowhere are men
50 regardless of each other, as in the most
throngcd highways of life So true it is,
that familiarity with suffering too often
harlens the human heart, even as vice
corrupts it.
y friend who has recently spent some
days in Philadelphia, states that it is diff
cult TO realize the reverses of fortune
transpiring Men who q few weeks ago
were regarded as millionaires, are now
utter baukrupts, or have sacrificed fortunes
to obtain means to secure few thousands.
Reverses like these, test the nobleness
and the virtue of meE. Some manifest
chlldlIke weakness, while others engage in
any reckless undertaking to save them
selves or to reap advantage from the suf-
icrlngs Of others. Adversely tries friends,
aud tries characters. Some-perhaps
many-who exhibited the loveliest char
actcrs, and seemed to adorn Christian
profession, while the sun of prosperity
shoue, now manifest the most repulsiye
dispositions, act out the worst principles
Of corrupt heart, and show that their
professions of piety were indeed worthless.
.Sioy at hDme among your friends and
ocga1iatances-aud DO not cast yourself
upon strange and uufecling world-iu
such a time as this. Our cities and man.
utacturing towns are overwhelmed with
applications Of hungry men and women,
willing aud anxious to labor to preserve
themselves aud those dearest to them from
privations, want, and suffering. Remain
at home, and try to secure, preserve, or
produce something, at the least cost, for
Your support.
Females, especially, should not throw
themselves into the vortex of city life,
thou5 h'iessly hoping that something may
turn up" 1t is stated that young females
who are thrown out of work by factories,
&c., are Wont to hurry to the next town
in Tho ra-i, hope that some honorable
means Of livelihood will be providcntially
aiiJrded. Strangers aud alone, if they
pcrchance obtain respectable temporary
home, their money is soon wasted, they
are jected from the roofs that sheltered
them, and nine out Of ten walk the streets
to obtain by shame short lease to
III pst miserable life Thus do warm. hear
tod womcn,who might have been the heads
Of happy families, become the curse Of
their sex and the bane Of humankind.
Young woman. last Of all do you fly to

Let the People Remember 4!

DD~ Lust reek, We inserted, conspicu
ously, from State data by Democratic
hands, the fact that Forty Millions of the
recent State Debt was imposed under Dem.
ocratic administrations, aud not Hulfa MI
lion under Opposition administrations.
We also proved that every Democratic ad.
ministration had Increased, and every Anti.
Democratic administration had decreased,
the State Debt-Ritner by 100000,
Johnston by S360,000, and Pollock by
Sl0,l23,000.
THIS reek, We insert also in prominent
manner, some cramples of how this debt
was constantly swellcd under Democratic
rule. The facts alleged, have been pub.
lished for some months, and We do not
recollect of having seen any attempt, on
the part of Packer friends, to refute them:
We therefore hold them to be in the main
correct, and that his advisers deem silent
neglect the better way to get along with
the stubborn facts" incorporated with the
official history Of our Legislation
Let it be borne in mind, it is now TWEEN.

then poor man, obtained his first office

THE TRUTH!

The Democratic party ices and hrires
upon ".Slacery agitation" To that, alone,
it owes its present possession Of the Gov
ernment. l have heard the confession Of
prominent Democrats, that, but for the
violation of the Missouri compact, the
Know-Nothings would have inevitably
swept the country in 1856. 1t was pro.
posed as measure of Kansas agitation to
alarm aud divide the North, and to unite
the South a united South and divided
North being always equivalent to Dem
ocratic victory. Were the Slavery ques.
ton buried tomorrow, the Democracy
would be left in contemplate minority
in every State North and South. 1twould
be swamped upon the single issue OF the
infamous tyranny it is now practicing in
Kansas. Washington Correspondent Of
Neo York Family Courier.
