hypocrltical pretensions OF the leaders of that
party, TO "economy" and ssreform;" and that
the unfuliled promises of the demagognes who
then deceived US, warn US never again tC be-
lieve them 10 the future. With large ma
jority in the popular branch OF our State Le-
gislature, they yet failed 10 pass in that House,
the bill repeating the odious Extra Pay Law,
which they We're pledged to do, nor did they
originate any other law, as they had promised
they would, TO relieve the "Hard Tlmes'' un-
der which our people languIsh. All their
promises OF "reform'' and "better times" have
proved but false and deceitfui electoneeFng
schemes, gotten up for the purpose of making
votes against the candidates of the Democratic
party.
| ResolUed, That the incessant and continued
clamor of the Opposition against the President
of the United States, has its origin not so much
| in their i'll will toward MR. BUCHANAN, as in
| their inveterate hatred oflhe Democratic party,
which it is their fond desire TO supplant, if
| possible, in the leading Offices of the National
| Government. II is their hunger for the Ioaves
| and fishes at the Federal capital, that inspires
these political wolves with their great talents
for bowling, and causes them TO yelp incessanl,
| ly about The "corruption" and s'tyranny' of the
National administration. Let no man be de-,
ceived by their trickery
~ Resolved, That we loathe and abhor Abo~
litionism in all its forms, phases and tendencies :;
and especially that Know-Nothing-ized Abo-
Iiionism which at present obtains in ihi State!
and which while it seeks 10 degrade the white
| citizen of foreign birth, labors to elevate the
negro TO the social and political level of "a tive
born white men. The rejection of the bill sstol
prevent the intermarrage of whites and blacks y
by the Abolition House of Representatives. at.
Harrisburg, and the vote of GEORGE W..
WILLIAMS, of this county, against that biII.l

county and meet with our most emphatic and
unqualified condemnation. Zaz@E@~e ID s74zzs4

economical administration of the Government
State-and local we are opposed
to the accumulation of the National debt in
time OF peace and, therefore, regret and con-
denim the unwise and ruinous opposition 10 the

ResolUed, That as we believe the doctrln8

and calculated to enhance the prosperity ana
glory OF our beloved country, and as, on the
other hand, we look with adherence and alarm.
upon The dogmas of The Opposition, whose
object is apparently the dissolution Of The Union
and the amalgamation OF the white and blackl
races, we deem it our duty 10 rally abound the,
banner of Democracy, aud marcn forwar I
under its glorious folds, 10 s'meet the enemy"
in the coming campa ign and to make them
"ours" when the smoke of battle clears from
the political arena on the second Tuesday of
