Now, TO say nothing Of Old and wei-ried democrats
hereahOut, such men a. Col. fCfdney Oeh' STEIN
man and others whose claims and qualifications pre-
sninep,ly uoiufed them out as men upon whom the
psry might rally and for whom any rational diocon-
tented Silver Gray Whig might vote, who gneved tor
nothing 30 much az the defeat OF Mr. Darlington, ali
being SET aside for Mr.. Buchanan particular friend
the test Of Democracy is TO grin and bear He

Now il the Presidents visit to his old home at this
particular time should turn out 10 have anything 10 40
with this retail business Of poltcs-and am not
xnasi,, al. h.lia IA
be presently stated-then the political mountain u
surely in labor. Mr. Hopkins Is an Old-Lne wing
Mr. Hopkins j. a warm Buchanan man-nay, warm
peysonal friend as well supporter Of the President
A. bis election AZ he is and he declares hmself
and moreover, Mr.. Hopkins is Protective Tariff
man--a High Tariff man" one who wants all the
iron furnaces in Pennsylvania pnt into blast' and
beside oil this, Mr. Hopkins says Kansas may come
into the Union as she likes provided he cant help it,
Great il Allah and BOhammed is his prophet. With
these strong LOcO-Foco and Silver-Gray Wing pro-
elivtes made manifest in Mr. Hopkins, who can
doubt that Mr.. Stevens is bound to fall = the back
ground especially he smells odous in the n0srils Of
the venerable President. Do not infer from this that
the Presidents visit has anything TO do not with the
election Of Congressman. dot not wish 80 TO be
understood; and TO make ii clear that he did not
for that at all but for quite difer'n thing, let me
give you copy Of the Presidents own autograph
litter 10 our fellow-czeD mot under the Dred Scott
decision as Mr.. Williams has African blood running
in his veiDs) Mr.. Charles Williams:
Mn. WILLIAMS: The razors which you sent me by
Mis- Parker excellent never owned better. They have
become little dun by constant | would thank put
them good order for by afternoon when will
send or call for them. You're, &c, JAMES BUCHANAN
Hheoftdad, Friday morning Sept, H. 1853.
The President came here TO get his razOrs sharp
ened, and for nothing else. Some old, weak minded
FedeTalsts rejoicing this letter of the Presi
dent They conjure out Of IL that he is going to
phlebotomze that democratic drop of blood out of his
veins, inasmuch they pretend TO trace in the ge-
neaogy Of Mr.. Hopkins pure Federal pedigree, and
IL il well known that venerable citizen clings to
his first love with all the avdity Of mother TO long
host child.
Although this IL JUNCTION TO the souls of that portion
Of the President friends and supporters here who pre-
tend TO be Wings it is not the less scandal than the
ether imputation upon his visit. He came here sim
ply 10 get his sharpened Who dare say to the
contrary Is not the Presidents autograph letter TO
that intent and purpose sufficient And if anything
farther necessary to prove this fact, might
quote the words of the Hon. Thaddeus Stevens this
day uttered that the President came home to get his
YaIors sharpened."
Now that the world is given so much TO suspicion,
70 say nothing of the scandal trust that have made
clear the rest of its denzeDs If not TO the sturdy
yeomsnry Of Lancaster, what the President did come
here for, even if he did make call at Postmaster
swars, and visit the Office Of Capt. Sanderson, the
pious gentleman who plays Mr.. Buchanans organ
here. ClIlLhN.
