Correspondence.


B""'o", Nov. ,, 1851.
EDITOR DEMOCRAT:
In looking over that very respccta
bic sheet, the Ol&m6,a COun5y RepuGS.
can, Of Oct. 24th, l observe short para.
graph concerning letter purporting to
have been written by me to a member of
the Iron Guards. 1t is not the first
time the DR.. has SO far forgotten common
dcccncy, as to drag tie name Of a private
citizen before the public, coupled with in.
situations which lc dares not put in spc.
cifc charges. Il is well known here whose
maliguity caused the article to b. wri,tcn
and the hr. is not increasing his friends
in descending so low as to become the tool
of 4 creature still beneath him.
But for the letter. If, as the Dr. says,
Kit is couchqd in language hardly fit to
appear in a respectable newspaper then
the t0lnn'Jsa oH"ty Rcp~tl!cam is the
very paper in which it ought to appear
The DR.. protests he chad no desire to
place Mr.. Eycritt in the uncnviablc posi-
ton before the public which must result
from the letter appearing in the papers"
| agree with the DR.. 1t certainly places
q man in bad position to lave his name
appear in the Rep@LlicoH !; but as he took
the privilege of putting it there without
my consent, J desire him to go a step fur
ther and publish the letter Of which he
speaks. His third reason for not publish
ing the letter is, because my "fricnds
might possibly Lave construed it into a
trumpcd up affair to make political capital
just before the election" 1t is mere folly
for the DR.. to make any such excuse as
that, after flooding the county with
"trumped up" and lying Landbills, "to
make political capital just before the cleo
tion." 1t is well known he would stop at
nothing which would make "political capi-
tal'-his paper proves that, the public
know it, and the remark shows that the
letter is only terrible in the dark.
Whether the DR.. has the letter or not
care not. If he mas, want him to pub.
lish it; which if he does not do, the pub.
lie will take it for granted he has no such
thing in his possession.

Tho People have Spoken

u
The result Of the clccliou in this county
cad throughout tha State lTords evidence
that the people are still true to correct
principles, and are ready TO acknowledge
al error and apply the remedy as far as
possible. The election Of LINCOLN 10 the
Presidency, and Of CURTIN as Governor
Of his Commonwealth, was a calamity to
the State and Nation. The people were
deceived, and they embraced the very first
opportunity to brand and condemn that
miserable faction Of cormorants called the
" Rcpublic2n party TIE result will
serve as Il lcssca and admcnition. It is a
condemnation Of Aboltionism; Of mob
law; Of incompetent army appointments (;
cf the Republican vulturcs who have been
and are still piIing up princoly fortunes at
the expense of TIE soldiers and the people;
of the miscreauts ald their abcttors who
repealed the tonnage tax. 1t is voice
from the hills, mountains, valleys and
towns Of Old Pennsylvania, giving warning
TO the stay-at-home patriots who have
been stgmatisiug the Democratic party
with disloyalty, that their brazcu impu
dcucc and coyeYcd.ul treason will no lon
ger be tolerated,
We regard the result Of the late confess
most fortunate for the country indeed it
is the country's salvation, for it will disa-
buse the Southern mind, and give conf
deuce and hope to capitalists Of the North.
National loans cun hereafter be negotiated
without difficulty, for the people have now
hope in the stability Of the Government.
Previous to thc election, Abolition robbers
in their presses and on the stump repre-
scented that the defeat Of the Republican
candidates would BE- regarded both in the
North and in the South, as 4 condemnation
of the war Hy preaching up this kind Ct
treason, our opponents hoped to deceive
the people once more, aud gain the victory
for themselves, Perhaps they did deceive
the South, and thus rendered aid and com
fort for the enemy, but JEFF DAVIS and
his rebel followers will soon be undeceiyod,
for it is the intention Of the Democrats 10
put this wicked contest through to 4 sue
cessful termination. The hands Of the
President will be sire ngtbcncd, confidence
will be restored, (now that the Democratic
party has been fully endorscd) and the
war will be prosecuted with yigor and de-
The people, we repeat have
now hope
Courage, then, people Of Pennsylvania!
Our country is now under thick cloud
but the Democratic party is inyncible, and |
will be found equal to thc crisis, Let
Black Republicans get out the way, aud |
let The President give ear to such Demo
cratic warriors and statesmen as M'CLEL-

Cor. TATE,

Dear Siy Mr.. "Township'
owns that Jefferson was in favor of abol.
ishing slavery, but by a different mode
from Helper. The facts are that they
we're all in favour Of abolishing it by Leg
islatioD.
lie then charges Helper with war ting
to degrade the white man to the level ofthe
negro. When the facts arc that he was
pleading in favour of the eight million
white men of the slave states who were
sorely oppressed by the two hundred and
fifty thousand OligarchiSt; and then ao-
cuses him of denOunc!ng sutch southern
men as Washington Jefferson Madison &c.
which is not the fact, Had he noted the
whole chapter from which he quoted he
would have soen that he made many ex.
ceptions, viz Bolts Stuart Il Mcfarland

A FoRETAsTE.-The people of Norfolk and
Portsmouth do not like their new taskmasters.
A Portsmouth correspondent of the Richmond
Examiner wrote lately that "if fGovernment finds
its workshops deserted within short time it
need not be surprised" and that "not day
passes that the new Government is not losing
the popular confidence" 1t is even asserted
by this writer that Portsmouth is on the eve of
i local revolution. On the 9th ultimo the me-
chanics in the blacksmith department threw
down their tools because of the arbitrary doings
and exactions of the naval officers. They re-
tired in body to the City Hall, with the avow-
ed intention of sending a Committee to Rich
mond to obtain redress of grievances. The cor
respondent recommends the restoration of civ
ilians to the control Of the navy yard, and that
sufficient safeguards be established "against
the outrageous infractions of civilian rights
which the military authority rarely fails to es-
say where there is a sign of power to warrant
arbitrariness." He concludes thus: "If you
could see these tyrannies in operation then
your columns would TEEN with indignant arti-
cles." This is quite revelation.

LOCAL MATTERS,

A CHINESE CAsE.-On Monday last, war
rant was issued by Justice Smith for the arrest
Of a Chinaman named All Sing, who has been
employed for some years at Woods Crossing,
charged with stealing $1,000. 1t appears that
one evening last week, All Sing and three other
Cinnamon we're engaged in gambling, and get
ting into dispute the three gave All Sing a
severe beating. The next day he went to French
Corral and had them arrested for assault and
battery and fined. On Monday one All Foon
lodged complaint before Justice Smith, of this
place, alledging that All Kit and An Sin, two
of the Cinnamon engaged in the fight, had lost
$4,000 at the time, and accusing All Sing of
stealing it. A warrant was accordingly issued,
and the case set for examination at two o'clock
to-day but the Cinnamon alleged to have lost
the money, rot appearing All Sing was dis
charged. The charge was undoubtedly trumped
up for revenge.
Rich QUARTz.-We mentioned, some days
ago the discovery Of rich quartz lead near
Fall Creek, in Washington township. We
were shown this morning some specimens from
the lead, which are thickly spotted with gold,
and are said to have been picked up at random
from the groupings. The lead has been traced
for distance of 5000 or 5000 feet, and in one
place the owners have sunk down upon it to a
depth of eighteen feet. The lead is a heavy one,
averaging three or four feet in thickness, and
the rock everywhere shows the orc. 1t is called
;l,or looJ tho d;soovaror NVo ara
informed that the fortunate owners are making
arrangements to erect mill for crushing the
rock.
IMPouNDING CATTLE.-A petition has been
circulating in town for day or two past, and
numerously signed, asking the Trustees to pass
an ordinance providing for the impounding of
cattle. 1t is alleged, and very justly too, that
cattle are doing great damage by breaking down
garden fences, young shade trees, &C., and we
have heard but little opposition expressed to
granting the prayer of the petitioners.
SUIT FOR TAXEs.-The District Attorney
has commenced suit against Jas. Weaver, for
Sl372 Is, being delinquent taxes on the Mem
phis and Orleans Race, for 1858, 80 and go.
There is heavy mortgage on the property, and
it is probably the intention of the mortgages
TO allow it to be sold for taxes and bid it in
themselves.
A CRAsH.-The navigator Of "prairie
schooner" in attempting to round the corner
Of Broad and Pine streets, this afternoon, got
a little out of his reckoning, and his craft COM
ing in contact with the awning posts of Kidd
& Knox's building, pulled several of them down,
causing considerable of crash.
COMMUNICATIONS is again opened between
town and Piety Hill-Mr Hallidie having con-
structcd foot-bridge for the convenience Of the
workmen engaged upon the wire bridge.
AcCIDENT-Geo McFadden fell from a lad
der on Boulder street, last Tuesday evening,
and was pretty badly hurt. His left ankle was
dislocated.

tween the two places at The earliest posi-
bic moment. The timber for trestle work,
culverts. and bridges, is nearly all delv
cred along the line, and will very soon be
ready to receive the ties and iron. 1t will
require but short time to complete the
grading from the Wallace Ranch Hill into
town, when the ground becomes softened
by the fall rains. We deem it safe to pre-
dict that, within year, this and the Gen.
trail road will be completed, when we shall
be in communication with Sacramento, by a
