THE DIsUNIoN DEMOCRACY.

The Democratic party is now led and con-
troled by the DisunonstS of the South and
their apologists at the Nsrth. There stands
the record, and it cannot be ignored or invali-
dated. Stern history has craven its lines SO
deep and indeliLle that public intelligence
cannot be deceived, and posterity will not for
get Nearly thirty years ago John G. Cal
houn raised the flag of disuniOn, and his 0oc-
trines have continuously gained disciples and
force until they have finally acquired absolute
mastery of the Democratic party. To cohsoIi'
date the more aggressive elements of the slave
holding interests and make it the power by
which to control the politics of the National
Government, was the cherished expedent OF
that fertile and powerful brain. And when
he went to his grave his views were received
and intensified by men less pure and more
audacious than himself To-day the very
worst type of Calhounism has entire presses
sion of the Southern Democracy, and drives
the machinery of the whole party. These con,
trolling agents of the Democracy, now on the
floor of Congress, daily threaten disunion if
their views are not approved by the country,
and their threats are applauded and apoogiz
ed for by almost the entire Democratic repre-
sentaton in Congress, and indorsed by their
presses while the Republicans in Congress
teach none but the most loyal regard for the
Constitution and the Union, and applaud
Union sentiments whether they come.from the
North or the South. BY doctrine, by fact
by record, by necessity, the Republican is the
real Union party of the country.

HARRISBURG, Jan. 81, 1860.

HARRISBURG, Jan. Il lSbU.
Mr.. f. O. GooDRcH. Dear Sr:-The
election in Dauphin county for member of the
Legislature in place of Mr.. Whitman decd ,
resulted in an increased majority for the Re
publican candidate. One thousand is regard
ed as very large majority in this county, es-
pecially at a special election. The democracy
rung the changes on Shoemaker aud the Con-
sttuton-CIark and Harper'S Ferry" till the
people became thoroughly disgusted with it,
and at the polls they sigually rebuked the hy-
pocricy and clap trap Of the day.
Another specman Of villainy was exposed
in the investigation of the election case of
Wiley and Duffied in Philadelphia. Upon a
recount of one os the boxes it was found that
30 of Wiley's votes had been counted for
DufIield A correction of the error elected
Wiley, Republican, by l3 votes.
Another Philadelphia investigation is still
in progress, what. the result may be is not
foreshadowed.
The Democrats have had a great time in
the House in getting themselves right on the
Tariff resolution. The amendment offered by
Mr.. Hill Dem to endorse Mr. Buchanans
tariff policy gave little umbrage and good
excuse for the Republicans to hitch on an
amendment repudiating his tariff notions.
This amendment the Democrats let pass with
out opposition and without calling the yeas
and nays and on their final passage they
neglected to call for a dicision of the question
and vote on each resolution separately, but
contented themselves with calling the yeas and
nays and all but one of them voting against
the whole thing. They now say they did not
understand their rights, while it is the opinion
of many that they did understand them but
were glad of pretext to get rid of voting for
tariff resolutions. They have been all the
week in getting themselves right again. First
they Joined in protest and asked to have it
placed on the journal. The Speaker decided
it could not be placed there as it charged the
majority of the House with uttering false
hood They refused to erase the Objectionable
part, and then went to work promScously in
entering protests on the journal. They have
now a very snarly record indeed.
M. Welsh (dem.) presented in the Senate
a memorial from john II. Wheeler who lost
three slaves through the instrumentality of
Passmore Williamson in Philadelphia some
four or five years ago, asking the state to pay
him the sum of $4,000, for said slaves He
bases his right to the money on the Consttu-
tior (what a wonderful thing that Constitu-
ton is.) He also cites cases where foreign
countries had indemnfed owners for loss of
their slaves under similar circumstances But
his stronghold is in the Dread Scott decision,
aud permit me to say that decision fully sus-
tains him in his demand 1t declares slaves
to be property under the Constitution in the
same sense that any other article of merchan
die is property, and as such the owner can
take and hold him wherever the Constitution

EXCITEMENT IN CONGRESS.

In another column wegive the Tribune cor
respondents account of the exciting scene on
Friday, when Mr. SMITH of North Carolina,
received sufficient number Of votes to eec /
him Speaker. but before the result was decided,
several gentlemen finding they had been mis-,
led, changing their votes.
We regret that the Republicans should
have found it necessary or advisable to leave
Mr. SHERMAN. The frmness and consistency
with which they have maintained their posi-
ton has excited the admiration of the country
while the dignity and propriety with which
their candidate has borne himself has Satisfied
even his opponents that he would ill the
Speakers chair With signal ability and i'm
partiaIity. The probabilities arc that the
XXXVI Congress is now presided over by
Speaker whose name we may perhaps yet be
enabled to announce in this weeks issue.
Bradford reporter. [volume] (Towanda, Pa.) 1844-1884, 1860-02-02

is the supreme law. Of course then Penn
sylvauia is powerless toprevent any gentleman
from South Carolina from coming into this
State with that kind of property and net only
holding him here but using, sell, and otherwise
dispose CT him as to him seemeth right. This
is the legitimate result of that decision, and
the only question is whether he shall apply to
the Legislature, or take his remedy against
the person who deprived him of his property.
Shosld the subject ever come to vote we
will see which horn of the dilemma the Democ'
racy will take. whether they will vote Mr..
Wheeler pay for his slaves, or disregard the
Dread Scott decision by voting against it.
The Republicans will probably take the re-
sponsfbilty of disregarding the dicta thrown
ont by Judge Taney, by refusing to give Mr..
Wheeler his $4,000.
But few bills of general character have
yet been passed One fixing the standard
weight of Glover seed at sixty pounds has been
reported by the judiciary Committee. Many
general bills have been "negatived" by said
committee. There seems to be an itching de-
sire on the part of some men to be always
tinkering with laws to which the people have
become accustomed and which work satisfac-
toriIy The judiciary committee will head off
all such ambitious undertakings.
Mr.. Landon, read in place ian act to in

The Board of Revenue Commissioners meet
in the Supreme Court room, at the Capitol,

I regard GaluSha 4 Grow, of Penn. as one
of the strongest, if not the dblest man on the
Republican side lie is tall man, of about
80 years Of age But few grey hairs have
crept in among his glossy black hair, while his
whiskerS and wellformed moustache are as
black as the ravens wing lie is about 5 ft.
II inches high, rather slim, but straight as an
arrow His expressive face indicates culture
and thought, and his sharp black eyes, denote
spirit and intellect, and though he has not yet
addressed the House at length. yet what he has
said evidences a strong mind, fearless heart,
and deep devotion to principle, while his clear
tones easy and distinct enunciatiOn, and une-
quivocal language, command the attention and
carry conviction to his auditors. He is skill
fnl tactician, thoroughly acquainted with Par
liamCntary law and the rules of the House aud
his points of order are always well taken and
sustained by the best authorities. lie is gen
temanly in his intercourse with members of
the House, and is much feared by the Democ-
racy, as he never speaks at random, but always
hits the mark with vigor and force which arc
irresistible But for the belief that his eleva-
tion to the Speakers chair would initiate
against the chances of Mr. Forney from the
same State, forthe Clerkship, Mr.. Grow would
have been the Republican candidate for Speak
er. Still, am glad that thisline of policy re
tains so able and fearless a leader and so elo
quent and powerful debater on the floor, a
position he is so pre-eminently qualified to-
grace.

SIGNs-The mulattc-Democracy of AL
ALBANIA have met in State Convention and
adopted platform of principles foreshadow-
ing the policy which must rule in the Charles
ton Convention. The enactment of q Pro
tectve Slave Code for the Territories by Con
gress, is made one of the requisite concessions
to be made by the party North, for the pre-
Servaton of the Union Of the States The
tenth resolution instructs the Alabama dele
gates to the Charleston Convention to insist
upon the full recognition of this duty of Con-
gress and if that Convention refuses to make
such recognition prior to nominating candi-
dates, then the Alabama delegation is instruct
ed to withdraw from the Convention and return
home And in such case, State Convention
will be called to determine what it may be
best to do in such an emergency. We shall
see whether the dough face Democracy will
yield to this new dictum Of the Black Power.
