Plain Talk to Pennsylvanians.

"a gentleman in Lewisburg desires US
to copy the following abstract Of private
letter from a citizen Of an adjoining State,
who writes strong Saxon I" like Dutch
uncle" He is about right, we think. 1t
is the Delilah Of Party which has shorn the
locks of the Samson, Pennsylvania, long
toiling in the prison-mill of the Philis,ine,

is preparing to averge himself next Fall.
DEAR SIR: Congress is adjourned. No

ing. The Senate, the wise branch, saw
proper to give Pennsylvania her usual
thumps, cuffs, kicks, lodges, and go-bys.
Her citizens deserve no better fate, so long
as they act like a pack of thck-headed
boobys, by supporting any bastard idea
gotten up by any democrat" who has i'm

to PhenixvilIe, for example, and see the
hard working men covered with sweat aud
cinders, with ore dust aud charcoai-ex-
anime their pockets aud you can draw
forth the "Penusylvanian," the organ of
the Democracy, her columns filled with all
the abuses against the North they can in
vent, asking for Union, and tomorrow
threatening Dissolution of the Union.
1t advocates the Kansas, Lecompton, and
Charleston platforms, Buchanan, Baltimore,
Bigler, Breckenridge, Douglas, and the
Tariff Of the Democracy of '46, vs.. Clay,
Webster, California Dollars, and the Tariff

course? Give US new men, new minds,
new measures, and if we do not better our
condition, change again, and SO continue
to change from time to time until We bet
ter our condition and blow up the false
party entirely. But Peunsylvania has
gone it blind for years. Look a, her Rail-
roads-none Of them paying on their ori-
ginal stocks, and not half worked up to
their capacity. Look at her canals-ihe
grass feeds the scores Of cattle upon the
tow-pa,hs, and the frogs peep up through b
the filth covering her undis,urbed waters,
while her boatmen look lapk and detected,
freighls are uncertain and low, their teams,
formerly three mules, are now shadow Of
a nag worth the sum Of five dollars, with a
crew composed Of captain, wife, and ten
children. Thus you see q most horrible
healthy condition Of things. All this comes
from policy foreign to true honesty, COM
mon sense, Righteousness, and morality.
You now will have plenty Of time TO look
after your errors. The iron men can cal
culate lost fortunes, the coal men their
faults, the Democracy their "Union," the
people their fate if the Covode iuvestiga-
ton result passes without comments. Foot
up the profits in business Of the next five
years, like the past the result of which
will be according to the opinion Of your
humble servanD O0OOOO0OOOOOO.

New Mode of Nominating.

In May last-befcre there were any can
didates whatever in the field-a decided
m,jority Of the permanent Committee
agreed to issue the above Call. As there
was no one before the people for office, it
is apparent that they had no personal or
sectional ends in view. They sought only
the harmony, the prosperity, and the best
interests of the party.
For some years past, growing dissatis-
faction with our caucus delegate system
has prevailed. Some good men refused to
attend primary elections, because (as they
avcrred) the Delegates chosen could not
be depended upon-after election they bar
tered away the vote of the man for whom
they we're pledged, for other candidates or
for money. Others, disappointed in their
desires or an,icipations, blindly reveDged
themselves upon the party, and opposed
,is nominees, to strike at some individual
With whom they were offended for what be
wsald not or could not Dc. In some ca
ses, doubtless, these suspicious have been
well fcasded-in others, they were cruelty
unjust. The REMEDY for this dark,
indirect, secoDd-banded way Of getting at
The popular will, is: to DELEGATE NO
rowER-TAKE NOTHING FROM THE PEo-
rLE-wHIcH THEY CAN EXERCISE THEM
SELVES, in their isolated capacity. Let
Them rote directly for the men of their
choice; let no Delegate be thrust between
the voters and the nominees, to deceive
them, 10 sell them, to thwart their wishes,
or to be ont managed. In this way, every
vote counts, certain, and is not lost because
1t happens to be in bare minority in one
ballo;-box; it counts in the aggregate
throughout the county, and one man vote
is as good as another's. Every voter
would thus feel encouraged to come out
aud indicate his preference, thereby giving
true index Of the popular will; the
candidates (and their frieuds) who may
be defeated, can see that it is comparative

What Cushing saws of Lincoln.

In q conversation between Caleb Cush-
ing and Col Parker, author of Reminis'
ences of Rufus Choa:e, Gushing said:
"Abraham Lincoln is much abler man
than is generally supposed, even in his
own party. In bis canvass with Douglas,
he beat him in argument, beat him in law,
beat him in wit; and the published de-
bates of that canvass will sustain this as
scrtioD."
When Caleb Gushing, the President Of
BOTH the Democratic National Conven-
tions, voluntarily renders to MIR. Lincoln
this honor which is so justly Cue him, We
think the little men Of the party who have
been charging that Lincoln is weak and
illiteratc man, ought to hide their faces an
shame for their contemplate meanness.

oft.n made by defeated candidates or friends,
that they have been betrayed or wronsed-a
charge which, from the roundabout way OF
nominating, and the secret acts OF delegates,
has often created dissatisfaction resulting in
defeat. This mode of voting directly-cailed
the "Crawford County System"-has been
tried with increasing appreciation IN many
counties. We recommend our fellow-citizens
to give it fair test, and Judge whether 1t is
moi more Just and satisfactory to all reasona'
HE men than the conventional caucus mode
We also urge a prompt attention 10 the hours
named-a strict scrutiny of the right 10 vote
of every person offering-and an honest and
prompt return, SO that no one can have any
occasion 10 complain of an irregularity.
