the 4th of March, 1857 Mr. Hamlin was
not Sentor, so that by his cuteness he
escaped showing his hand on the tariff of
1857.

&C., were laid upon the table but not a
word came from the lips of Mr. Hamlin,
although as the record shows he was in
his seat See page POS %
Vol 80 Part |, page S7S, Feb 8, 1852
Mr. Hamln voted to proceed to the con
sideration of a resolution offered by Mr.
Bigler. which declared that the creation
of large public debt in time Of peace is in,
consistent with the true policy of the u
nited States, and as the present revenues
are insufficient to meet the unavoidable
expenses of the Government, Congress
should proceed without delay to so read
lust the revenue laws, as rot only TO meet
Ithe deficit in the current expenses, but TO
nav off the present debt so far as it may
| be liable to immediate cancellation.
Probably the Black Republican party
will decide that the above is q protective
tariff vote. This will not answer, now
ever, as not less than seven so-called
Southern Loco Foco Free Traders voted for
the same resolution, together with num-
Der of other Democrats eyes, says an cp-
ponent, "when Mr. Hamlin voted and
spoke against the tariff he was Demo-
crat, but he has left the Democrats and is
now protective tariff man" Let US ex,.
anime this matter, Mr. Hamlin left the
Democratic party on the 18th Of June,
1855, according to his own declarations,
bu. not one word did he say that he differ
ed with the Democratic party on the tar
| itf question. The negro was first with
him He had a more exalted opinion OF
the negro than the Democratic party has ;
and the truth is, that while he protessed
to be Democrat he could not conceal his
sympathies for the negro He esteemed
the colored population to such degree
that he finally became esuanged from
the Democratic party and joined the Black
Republican, whose feelings are all in that
dlrectioJ. That is the only reason why
Mr. Hamln left the Democratic party If
he has changed his opinions on the tariff
question, why did he not express himself
TO that effect? From the 3lst January Ia
the 18th February, 1859, duying the dis
cusson of Mr.. Bigler's tariff resolution, re-
manned as silent as death. He was per-
fcctly mum on the tariff question, and we
have, Therefore, right to conclude that he
did not think it OF much Importance
And yet we are told, 30, yes! He il
protective tariff man !" The II Sena'
tors who took part in the discussions or
t hat occasion, desired the community tc
know their sentiments onthe tariff. Not
so, however, with Mr. Hamlin. And ye
he is the candidate of the so called protec.
tive tariff men, Out upon such humbug-

The Future Of RepublicanisIn.

in their an,icipations of victory in Novem'

the skermishing has but commenced. For
the present let us suppose them success

With the election of Lincoln, comes to
him the solemn oath of office, and his
sworn duty to the government, Upon
the one hand, he has plain duty to per
form; to conduct the government accor'
ding to the clear letter of the Constitution
upon the other, he has a rabid, infatuated
and fanatical party pressing upon him,

We hope no Democrat will be discour,
aged by our recent defeat every man
should feel that noto is the hour to show
his zeal for MS party and her principles.
The darkest hour is just before day.

metal OF the true soldier, and he who fol.
lows the flag of his party only in victory
is without true courage.
The storm of popular prejudice has
bourne us down before, we fell at our
posts in defence of the Constitution, and
our principles have been sustained. So it
will be now let every Democrat come to
the polls, stand by your principles the
result will take care of itself. When YOU
have done this; if adversely comes, a
bright future awaits you.

fully met the wants Of the Agricalturist. Some
are too heavy, some too complicated and costly,
and all are liable to the objection that they arc
only adapted to certain kinds of ground for
while it is easy to got uf a harrow that will
work well on smooth, clear and level ground, II
is not so easy to find one that will answer good
purpose in new ground among stumps or on
billy and undulating surface, but when you get
one of the latter class you may rest assured that
it will also give satisfaction on a smooth surface.
The undersigned confidently believe that this
object is fully attained in this improvement

Scientific agriculturists to the following import.

The regular Democratic State Central
Committee met on the 10Th inst, at Read

them in regard TO the electoral ticket,
and recommended that the Dem ocracy
should unite upon the regular ticket form
ed at Reading in March last, and we are

on Thursday last, and have with drawn

ded the friends of Judge Douglas to concur
in the recommendation Of the regular
Committee and support the Reading Elec-
toral ticket, aud thus we have the Demos

raj ticket. We do not intend now to dis
cuss the reasons assigned by the Roum-
fort Committee for its recent action, such
discussion could ! G productive of no good,
that action itself, without the reasons as.
signed is sufficient for us, and we do not
hesitate TO say, it is the most sensible as
well as the most patriotic thing the Roum-
fort Committee has ever DONE With uniS
ted vigorous action we may succeed, and
and if we must fall, there is bright fu-
ture for compact and powerful minority.
We do not by any means abandon our
hopes of success, there are abundant
grounds for hope victory in November
next.
1t was alleged before the October election
that Gen Foster could not obtain more
than from one.fourth to one-third Of the
Bell vote, such has been the result; whilst
there were but about 10000 Bell and Ev-
erett votes cast for Gen Foster, they clai-
med TO have so, 900 in the State if this Re
true, and there be now cast for their own
ticket, the vote for Mr.. Lincoln will be TO-
600 less than that received by Col Cur
tin. .- r.. .
All will remember that Mayor Henry of
Philadelphia, the most influential Bell and
Everett man in the State, sustained Col
Curtin with all his power, influence, and
patronage, whilst now his whole energy
is devoted to the Bell ticket
This is aa example of the condition of
affairs in the City of Philadelphia, and we
find the same fact to exist in other parts
OF the State, in our own vicinity, gentle
man Of influence who were active for Col
Curtin are now warm supporters Of Bell
and Everett. An analysis of the vote for
Governor, demonstrates that in certain To-
calities many Of the more rabid Douglas
men, fearing That the election of Foster
would aid Breckenridge, have voted for
Curtin, we cannot doubt that all these,
under tho recent action of their Commit
tee, will vote for the Reading ticket and
to that extent swell the Democratic vote.
With these TO aid us now, it only re-
mains for us to do our utmost to get out
the entire vote of the Democracy on the
9th of November, and TO this work all
true friends of the party should devote
themselves with unceasing activity. Let
every Democrat exert himself for an uni-
ted democracy ana the Reading ticket.

The Fair.

Accc riding to notice, our first Agricu!tu-
raj fair was held in this county on last
week, the 10th, 18th, and 18th insts.
The frat day we had excellent weather,
but the balance Of the time was very disa-
greeable indeed. .
On Wednesday it is estimated that
their were 5000 persons upon the ground,
and we are certain, if it had been politi-
cal gathering, it would have answered TO
say that 10000 persons wore present.
Great praise is due to the officers of the
society who have labored in season and
out of season, to discharge their respective
duties. We had frequently heard it said
by persons that the fair would prove fz.
zle hence the diligence and labor of the
Society notwithstanding their Shole
heart was enlisted in the success Of
the Society, and this prejudice which had
gained some ground had to be over come !;
and most nobly did they over coma all

In the Union there is Strength

The Democratic Executive Committee
have Withdrawn all resolutions adopted
by them in reference to the Electoral
Ticket, and recommended the party to
vote for the Electors as nominated at
Readin :, without requiring any pIsdges
from them.
The Resolution was passed unanimous
ly, and readsas follows:
Rcsolced. That this Committee do hereby
reseind its action at Philadelphia on tle %
July, and al Cresson on the 9th of Au'
gust last, and that we Recommend to the
Democratic party of Pennsylvania to stand
by the Electoral ticket made by the Dem
ocratc State Convention at Reading on
the lst of March, 1860,
The Douglas State Committee, have, in
like manner withdrawn their Straight-out
Electoral Ticket, and recommended AL
friends OF Douglas to supporth the Read,
ing Electors.
We give the resolution ss passed by the
Roumfogt Committee as follows: .....
Resol'ed, That we deem it proper under
existing circumstances, for the harmony
of the Democratic party OF Pennsylvania,
to recommended to the united Democra>
cy of the State the electoral ticket as it
was originally formed at Reading in
March last-now wholly free from qCes.
tionable pledges and committals.
Thus the Democracy are once more q
united party, and can go into the contest
in November next with some show OF
strength, and fair hope Of victory,
Had this plan been ad opted two o. three
months ago, instead of trailing in the dust,
our banner would now be crowned with a
glorious victory.
No man.who desires the defeat of Lin.
coin, can hesitate moment to cast his
vote for the Reading ticket. 1t Is compo-
sed of p Democrats, selected from then
respective Congressional districts. They
are all men of character, and of intelli,
gence, and if elected, will so discharge
their important trusts as will be entirely
satisfactory to every man who breads the
triumph of abolitionism. II is understood
that these p men are about equally, divi-
ded, in their personal Preference between
Douglas aud Breckenridge, but should
they be elected, we are perfectly willing
to trust them to vote, as a unit, either for
Mr. Dougla or for breckenridge, if by
voting they can elect either, or even, If
they can defeat Lincoln, and prevent the
election from going into the House, we are
willing they shall vote for Mr. Bell, upon
this platform in the present highly
perilous condition of our beloved country,
we think every man who desires the de-
feat of the Black Republicans can stand.
We believe that both wings of the party
will sanction this action of their respec-
tive Commit tees, with great cordiality,
and that of vigorous effort will be made
to carry the State in November. There
are enough friends of the Union and the
Constitution in Pennsylvania, to do this
if they will only unite their efforts and pull
together. Shall this be done? Or will
we quietly permit the triumph of the en-
enies Of the Constitution. 1t is Tor the
people to decide.
