RICHARD HUSH. swear, but is never heard to determined to imitate his disgusting depravity and And he says he would not vote 4or Adams were he as pure as at the right hand of God! -Now, Gen Ogle would say, this is in a Christian country. The repeats a wicked, profane and declaration, is as bad as the author this learned Esculapius votes or Jackson is a matter of but He do not care how but vve deeply regret the pain Adams will feel, when he hears is opposed to him of the Hickories, after applying friends of the administration, every epithet that blackguardism depravity, can invent, have the unblushing impudence to solicit our suffrages their candidates, some of them, their prompters and wircdrawers slanders and villanies.

It is said that Mr. Hiester is unpopular among his'immcdiate neighbors. If so, ye Jacksonians, why dont you chuckle at it and make "the most of it. But it is false, and knew to be so, and is intended to have an effect where Mr.llies-ter is personally unacquainted. No man in Lancaster county is more popular with his neighbours no man more beloved than Mr.

Hiester. It i3 his neighbours and acquaintances, (contrary to his inclination and interest) that have brought him forward, and are urging his claims to scat in Congress, and his neighbors and acquaintances, of every political denomi nation, will give him their vote and cordial support The second Tuesday in October, 1828, will shew this Mechanic, who is nothing more nor less than a pettifogging Attorney, how popular Mr.Hies-ter is with his immediate neighbors The people of Lancaster County have been represented to me by the hirelings of the administration as the stupid dutch, and ignorant Irish. These opprobrious terms, stupid dutch and turbulent, ignorant Irish, like the in ers, the. workers and cultivators of the soil, must always succumb to the upstart impudence of a few Lawyers! and whenever any of them sees fit to run for an office, we Farmers must put our hats under our arm and stand aloof, as if we were about to encounter a demi-god, or some earthly Yes, we poor country Farmers are just fit to be hewers of wood and drawers of water to the nobility; to. move at their beck, whine at their cry, and grin at their laugh.

The aristoracy, the nobility and big shop of the city, will smile, and bow, and sometimes lear at us sun-burnt stupid Dutch and turbulent Irish, and horse-thieves and to-rics, as they call us in the When they want our votes for a good fat office, yes, then we corn-led boys of tlui country may get the privilege of touching the silky hand of one of the silk-stocking gentry of the But the moment they have obtained what they want (our votes) they know us no longer; but should thev happen to meet us in the city, they will run over us rough-shod without seeing us, or crowd us from the pavement. This has always been, and this always will be, the case, so long as we carry a thread in our nose, and allow them to pull us about by it, when and where they please. But at the ensuing election, weoi the country will show these 4 silk stockings of the ELECTORAL TICKET. Gabriel Hiester, of Dauphin county. John Reed, of Washington county.

His speech upon the Retrenchment bill, while it did not do any credit to his talents, ingcuious-ness or candor, certainly done the cause of the administration a great deal of good. The people are not fools -they know snuff from butter. And whenever they see men, who ought to know better, and knowing ought to act better, resorting to unfair, ungenerous, unsound and untrue means to injure an opposing cause or measure, they will soon come to the conclusion, and act accordingly, that some thing is rotten in the state of Denmark.

A letter received in Philadelphia, dated June 29, from thi3 distinguished and excellent man, says My health is now' perfectly restored. The session of the French Chamber will be at an end by the 1st of August, when my family will be re-united in my country abode.

Every thing concerning La Fayette is interesting to the American people. He was our early and disinterested friend. He abandoned his country, his family and friends: gave up the fascinating and splendid attractions of courts the alluring and bewitching influences of wealth and titles; and sundered at one effort the tender lig- ament which bound him to a young beautiful wife, and a darling child: he done all for our sakes for the sake of liberty. When, therefore, we forget him, when his name ceases to be harmony to our ears, and his health and happiness uncared for by, and uninteresting to, us, we deserve to have our names effaced from the scroll of men, and of nations. it from high communication in the last Journal, signature of a Mechanic, is errors.

We shall just notice a them. Hiester (sgys the writer) is almost stramrps, arnonsst no. Laving, it hefecompailatively but a short from Bucks or Berks. Hiester is not an almost stranger county. That which galls opponent ar.d political enemies most, is, that lie is so well known, and advantageously kuown, in Lancaster county.

A report of the Rattlesnake and Ilumming-bird Chancellors speech at the Jackson meeting, ha3 been received, and is under consideration. For the Lancaster Reporter. Mr. Jacobs, The Jacksonmen in the city arc very much alarmed, and beg very hard to induce us to vote for Buchanan. Some of them say, they will vote for Adams, if vve will only vote for Buchanan.

But thats bargain and thinks I to myself, and so I wont do it. You musntgo to catch old birds with chaff. May be these bargainers may come out as Buchanan did when he made the offer to General Jack-son. I heard a Jacksonman say the other day, that he would be switched if he would vote for Buchanan, for that he was the means of getting the old General into a scrape, and then would't help him out, and left him charged with having told a falsehood; while Buchanan ought to have known that he said what was as near the truth, as. tvveedle dum is to tweedle dee.

Now we have only a few Jacksonmen in my neighbourhood, but they dont like Buchanan, and for the same reason; and they say they will vote for a good man, who is a farmer, and a country man, in preference to one from (he city, who is a Lawyer: we are tired of sending lawyers to Congress, to make long speeches, and while we have men in the country fit for any station, we will send them to Congress, and make our own occupation honorable. We all go for Hiester in this neighbor-hoop, and you may rest assured his majority will be fine in LAMPETER. Mr. Adams. We have authority, which we hope to lay before our readers ere long, that Mr.

Adams is not a Unitarian, as has been is a Trinitarian Orthodox in principle and exemplary in practice. The Jackson men electioneer very in dustriously for Buchanan. Their constan argument in his favour is, that he is a man of talents. Nobody disputes that. think, however, that such argument comes with very bad grace' from a Jacksonian who is opposing the President of the States, a man of gigantic talents and in- exhnnstibe store, of learning- advoL' ber vvUl Mr Hiester ia eating the election of a man of no talents, Known, Tirttniow much his being; known He has resided in this county three times as long as Buchanan had when he was Jirst elected to the Legislature; and he has resided quite as long, if not longer, than when Buchanan was first elected to Congress.

Mr. Hiester came from our adjacent sister county, Berks, and this is made an objection to him. Buchanan came from' Franklin county, a distant county, and this is a recommendation for At present but little is known of Mr. Hiester, and that little not in his favour. The ballot boes on the 14th of Octo- There was a very large aild respectable meeting of the friends of the administration at the public house of Dr.

R. P. Haughey, in Little Britain township, on Saturday the 13th inst. at whic Mr. Aaron Quinby was appointed President, Timothy Haines and Jonathan Pierce Vice Presidents; Phineas Ash and Samuel "Webster Secretaries.

An uuljltoo, fltttl OensiWp am piquant resolutions were adopted. They shall be published next week. We very much regret they came too late for this days paper. and who is proverbial for his ignorance and illiteracy. The Jacksonians have said that Gen.

Jackson was appointed to the office of Attorney General of Tennessee by Gen. Washington, and have therefore attached great importance to that fact. It now appears, trom the National Journal, that General Washington never appointed Andrew" Jackson to any office, either civil or military. The evidence exhibited by some of Jacksons friends, to prove that he was appointed to office by Gen. Washington, is all a FORGERY.

Dauphin county Administration Ticket. The friends of the administration in Dauphin county, at their Delegate meeting on Friday last, settled the following ticket to be supported at the ensuing election: Congress. Valentine Hummel. Assembly. John S.

Wiestling. David Ferguson. The young men in Harrisburg, friendly to the present administration, had large and respectable meeting on Thurs day the 11th inst. Samuel Shock, Esq. was appointed President, Dr.

B. J. Wiest-ling, and Mr. John Heppart, Vice Presidents, Hughes and Win. Hays, Secretaries.

The object of the meeting having been stated by the president, a committee consisting of Messrs. Wyeth, Sees, Artz, McCormick, Zeigler, Keagyand Gilbert, were appointed to draft an address and resolutions.1 The address is excellent, and we regret that we capnot make room for it this week. is in his favour. It is always to the advantage of good men to be known; but some men, like prophets, are of no honor in their own country. The Mr.

Mechanic would not like to be known if he were, i 7 his lion skin would quickly be dcifd, and a more appropriate mantle, a skeep skin, would cover his recreant limbs. Eut, if Mr. Hiester be so little known, and not favorably known, why make such a regular, concerted and homicidal set upon him in the Jackson papers? We would say to the editors, and their co-operators, why, gentlemen, if Mr. Hiester be so unpopular, so feeble an opponent of Mr. Buchanan, it is so much the better for you; and if he stands no chance, you, in your endeavours to pull him down, are throwing water on a drowned rat.

But the very fact that Mr. Hiester, from the moment he was settled upon the Congressional ticket having become the object of the most bitter, envenomed attacks from every Jackson quarter, conclusively shows that he is a formidable of Buchanan, and they are afraid of him and well they might, for he will be elected. If he were so politically feeble as his enemies pretend they think him, lie would be left unmolested and unattacked. It is flattering to Mr. Hiester that he is abused; and it is a matter of encourage-' ment to his political friends, and to the Administration party.

The restiveness of the Jacksonians upon this subject, reminds us of the couplet The flesh will quiver when the pincers tear The blood will follow when the knife is driven. It is certain Mr. Hiester was a Federalist, he is now a Democrat. Mr. Hiester, we are informed, has always been a consistent politician; a uniform and liberal democratic republican.

How is it with Mr. Buchanan Has he been a consistent and uniform politician? Ask many of his old Federal friends, and hear their answer. They charge him with political trimming, and we believe not without some grounds. How has he and Porter, but lately inveterate enemies, each at the head of their respective opposing parties, been reconciled? How have they become political brethren? Not through the question of Adams and Jack-son. To be sure that helped and sealed the bargain, but the Union, the reconciliation, was begun and nearly effected, before the presidential question entered into our county elections.

And how was this? For the Reporter. No. I. HUZZA FOR THS HEROITES! Kentucky is theirs, because Melcalfe, the Administration candidate for Governor, has beaten Barry, the Jackson candidate for Governor, 709 votes only; and Breathitt, their candidate for Lieutenant Governor, only 1387. Truly, gentlemen, you are a hopeful set.

Every defeat, according to Jackson logic, is a victory, and brighten their prospects of success. As a Governors election calls for the votes of every part of a State, it is a fair general rule by which to judge of the public sentiment of the people, as to any national measure which is before the voters when the election takes place. As to county elections for state officers only, when no federal officers, sucli as members of Congress, are to be elected, they, generally speaking, are influenced and governed by local feelings and local considerations, within the county. The Governors election in Kentucky turned singly on the Presidential question. In this both parties agreed.

It was therefore well adapted to speak the voice, the will of the State. Metcalfe had been a member of Congress at the last Presidential election, and had voted for Mr. Adams, to the will of his immediate constituents, but against the instructions of the Legislature of Kentucky, and contrary to the wishes of Barry, Pope, Rowan, Johnson, Moore, and all the other leaders of Jack-son in the State. The vile and libellous cry of bargain and sale, invented and proclaimed by the Hero, and disproved by his own witness, Mr. Buchanan, was applied by the venal presses in and out of the State, for better than three years, against this respectable mans conduct.

He was the victim who was to be sacrificed by the Jackson band to their Idol; because his manly mind had prevented this military chieftain from seizing the reins of the civic authority, and vaulting into the Presidential chair Mr. Metcalfe was performing his duty as a member of Congress through the month of May last; the session having been spun out for electioneering purposes by the Jackson majority, and to make up their out of the Treasury; which enabled his competitor to enter upon his electioneering campaign one month sooner than himself! With this great disadvantage, every quiver which could be drawn from the furious" and vengeful heart of Jacksonism, was pointed at this manly statesman. Barry, his opponent, was the roost popu- comsviukicaticns. For the Reporter. Mr.

Pr filler Through your paper two weeks ago, I wanted to know of James Buchanan whether he did not oppose, with all his influence, the election to the Senate of the United States, of our fellow-citizen, Isaac D. Barnard? I have not sec-n any denial of that charge in any paper; therefore, I take it for granted, it is true. What could have been James Buchanans motive for so doing? Did he not want a Senator from this District so that our interests might be ably attended to or, did he want a stranger to us, the apostate federalist, Samuel D. Ingham A Chester County Democrat. FOR THE REPORTER.

WILLIAM HIESTER, Esq. Mr. Jacobs No sooner was William Hiester nominated as our Congressional candidate, than the leeches of character, so" conspicuous in the ranks of the opposition, fastened upon him with as much virulence, tenacity and concert, as would be' necessary in dissolving a rock And while they imbibe and disseminate the principles of their Idol, they forget that as citizens, holding and maintaining different views of policy and principles, we as a party, have a right to present and support as a candidate to any office, any man whom we may see fit. But, No, say the city Jackson men. As the General said to Gov.

Rabun, whilst I am in the field you have no right to command: they say, whilst ive have a candidate in the field, you have no right to bring one forward you ebonyites you traitors you quids you tones you horse-thieves you have no right to present a candidate in opposition to our immaculate, our city, our distinguished member. And in full accordance with these principles, as soon as we had the daring effrontery to take up one, in less than twenty-four hours the hired scribbers of Mr. Bucha nan attack, iu the most inveterate manner, the character of our candidate, Wm. Hiester, a country citizen, a scholar, a gentleman and a Farmer. These hired silk stocking gentry scribblers of the city are attempting to tell us people of the county what we ought to do, what we must do, and what we shall do.

They think if they can make the people of the country support Mr. Buchanan, there were will be no difficulty in always keeping the Lawyers in those fat offices or, if they can make the people believe that a Farmer is not fit for any post or office, because he is a Farmer, and therefore can't have talents. Then we the Farm- The Congressional conferees for this district, says the Examiner published at Doylestovvn, Bucks county, met at Easton on Saturday, September the 6th, and the conference resulted in the recommendation of Thomas G. Kennedy and James M. Porter, Esquires, as candidates for Congress.

Mr. Kennedy and Porter are warm friends of the administration. Bargain and Corruption. Some of the very pure politicians, who have been so much shocked at the' alleged bargain between Adams and Clay, are busily employed in trying to effect that which, on account of its moral odiousness, they so much detested, the election of a favourite, by compromise, by barter, Some men, Jackson men, have offered to a candidate upon the administration ticket, their support to him, if he would support Buchanan. Yes, they have offered to sacrifice any man on their ticket, to secure the election of Buchanan.

If, said a certain man, you and your friends will support Buchanan for Congress, me and my friends, will strike Samuel Houston, and do all we can for John Rohrer. Fellow citizens There is corruption abroad, stalking abroad in day light. Look" about yourselves and do not suffer yourselves to be cheated out of your votes, either openly or covertly. Dont relv upon the promises of any man to support your candidate, who is so base as to make a proposition of bargain and corruption. A certain knight of the pestle and mor-ar in Little Britain, is very anxious to et into notice.

He has tried several dans such as making himself busy at jolitical meetings, and at newspaper scribbling; but we think the best plan, that of making horrid and profane declarations, though the least enviable, will be sure to secure to him the most rapid and most imperishable kind of fame. Some Doctors put the heralds of their fame under ground. This Doctor, like the foolish ellow who set fire to the Temple of Diana, is determined to be noticed by re-iort good or bad; and therefore, as he cannot imitate the good qualities of Mr. ohnston, he, like a parrot, who often BupKs county Administration Ticket.
