GENERAL ALLEN INDICATED. - AS
the Democratic papers are sorely exercised
over the prospect of Hartley being terribly
beaten by Gen. Allen, and as they continu-
ally charge the Republican candidate with
dishonesty, which none but knaves will as
sert, we copy the following resolutions,
framed and passed unanimously by q DEM
ocrdtic mC"ii1g in Warren county, on the
evening of the 25th ult. David Beat
ty, Esq. presided, with Matthew Simpson,
as Vice President, and Jacob Ollericc and
Theo. Hull, Secretaries, all well-knowu and
influential Democrats. The resolutions
passed lcHbOW q dissenting rOice are as fol-
lows:
ReSOlrod, That we, lifelong Democrats
of Warren county, and neighbOrs of Gen.
Allen, do most chcerfully bear testimony to
his eXccllency rs Il citizen, and most dcci-
dedly dissent from and disapprobate the
ISLANDERS being hurled against him by the
partizan press.-KnOwing him from his
boyhood, we do not credit the charges made
against him, but believe them the offspring
of political malice, and disappointed ambi-
ton.
ReSOlrcd, That while entirely differing
from him in politics, and being in favor Of
Greeley aud Buckalew, we do feel that po-
litical success should not be obtained at the
price of the fair fame of any candidate, and
we therefore express our sentiments most
fully, and as we think in the most Demo-
cratic manner, when we say trunped up
chdrqes unSuLStdutjdtcd by anu ecidence. are
not and ought not to be considered as of
any value whatever. against any candidate,
but in the case Of General Allen il is most
especially unjust, as without money or in
iuental friends he has risen TO distinction,
and his whole life has proven his energy,

business which has been placed upon him
or in which he has been engaged. He is
almost the first in every charitable enter
prise and is emphatcally the poor mans
! friend.
Rcsolred, That in giving expression to
our sentiments, we believe there are hun
dreds of our neghbors who will agree with
us, and who, ,rtjle repudiatiitg The caluD-
mics hedped on Gen. Iilcn, will vote the ba-
lance of the Democrotic and Liberal ticket,
from President down to county auditor.
! Such is the testimony of Gen. Aliens De-
mocratic neighbors, and it outweighs all
the contemplate and malignant efforts Of
the Greeley papers to iniurC him in the
opinions of all rght-minded men. If it
were possible for Democratic editors to ap-
preciate their own litileucss ard meanness

slink abashed before the whitening reproDf
administered them by the members of their
own party in Warren county. But they
will shut their eyes to this evidence from
! honest men who have known Gen. Allen
| from childhood, and having n stock of
/ falsehoods on hand, will persist in using
| them until the close of the campaign. With
their willing ally, Forncy may heap abuse
and ISLANDERS upon him from this time un-
til then, but it will be filth thrown in vain.
They cannot befoul character SO clean, a
reputation for integrity so irreproachable,
and record so honorable. The people of
Pennsylvania cannot, will not elect man
like Hartley, the friend of the rebellion and
the close sympathizer with red-handcd
! treason. They want honest, efficient and
| legal men in the high offices of the Com
mopwealth, and they will choose 10 fill
| them in October, Generals llartranft, Al
len and Ulysses Mercur by crushing majo-
rites. es.-PdtsbUg Dispatch.
