as the Democracy of Scbuylk have passed Anti
Lecompton and Tariff resolutions recently and they
will not support any other tnan man who sustslns
those principles. Dewart is of little accounts
the weakest of our delegation, and only reached
Congress after two defeats by the liberal use of his
large fortune. He was decidedly Anti LecOmpton
until three days before the vote was taken on the
Crittenden bill but he could not withstand official
fattery, and over he went. Should Republican
run, David Taggart of Northumberland will doubt
less be the man but it is probable that the opposl
ton will concentrate on some Schuylkli Anti Lee
compton Democrat, who Is sound on the larn
question Rest assured that the District will be
carried against the LecOmptonites.

In the XVIIth District Franklin, Bedford, &C.,
there will be a desperate fight. Wilson Reilly, who
started out most violently against Lecompton, and
who wrote a speech against it, but delivered one ID
