electing Gen. Markle and not electing Mr. Cl»y. or electing Mr. Clay and not Gen. Markle, vvould not accomplish the great ends of the contest.— There is a power at work in this fJnion adverse to its best interests, perhaps its existence, whicb re¬ iiuires un acUvc exercise of atl thc constitutional measures in our power to resist. Harmony be¬ tween our State and Federal Governments, in no period of our existence, has been so strongly invo¬ ked. Minor differences of opinion must lie sacri¬ ficed, and nothing short of Iho election of both Markle and Clay, be deemed a constitutional vic¬ tory. MartUi Von Buren professed to sustain some of tho   prominent   pnnciples  in  accortlancc
to adopt, promise a removal of the cyils complained of, and llicy set forth in advance Bpeciticaily the means by which they hope to attain the great end. They ask investigation and scrutiny, and they do not fear the result.
Tho Whig parly maintains, that the Public V^'orks could bc sold on anvantagcous terms, and the proceeds applied towards the extinguishment of the public debt, or, if retained, that tbeir manage¬ ment could be kept in subservancc to the public in¬ terests, and not for individual or political prefer¬ ment, and that this could be secured by the ajipoint- mcnt of faithful agents and on principles of strict

embarrassed by tho inlluence of others about him, and controlliog bis parly inimical to his own views. Now. all pretences and appearances of favor, arc laid aside, and a Southern combinalion suddenly and unexpectedly formed in direct opposition to tho avowal and long-cherished principles uniform¬ ly maintained in this State. No choice is left for Pennsylvania; she must eilher abandon her own principles and her own interests, or she must op¬ pose the party by vvhich they are assailed. The contest must now be decided al the polls. Ifour opponents succeed, tho vilt; schemes of oflicial pro¬ fligacy, so significantly rebuked in 1810, will bo virtually sanctioned; proscription for opinion's sake, and thu bartering of offices for pohlical favor, will bo encouraged. The preferences given lo parbzan ferocity in making appointments, over abil¬ ily and integrity, will be opprovcd. The infamous doctrine publicly onnounccd and practised, of con¬ sidering the profits of olTico as llio " spoils of vic¬ tory," and duo lo ll.c victors, will be confirmed.
The odious sub-Treasury scheme, dividing Ihc offices from the peop'e—taking core ofone and lotting the olhers take care of themselves, will 'tie revived. The vvar is to be renewed against thc currency—agoinst commerce—against a protective tnrilT—against the distribution among the Slates of the proceeds of die sales of the public lands—against commercial credit—against manufactories, &c. In Penn.sylvania, no favorable change is proposed. It is represented and believe.l, that a (noxious influ¬ ence would be exercised in the councils of Mr. Muhlenberg if he should succeed in his election hy a condnuation of unworthy men already on too much familiarity vvilh him. That ho would not look lo the best men of bis parly tor advice. Ifso, there is no hope in the event of his success, ofany improvement in tho financial operations of tho Government. If tbere should be profligocy in the expenditures and cnllrelinn of the rovpiiucs—and a disregard ofthe responsibility in public olHceiE— llic public debt cannot be diminished. Ifthe schemes of peculation, and extravagance in con¬ tractors, and raismaiiagemcnt of tho public vvorks bo conlinued, converting them inlo sources of jiri- valo gain and political influence—sure destruction of our best intcresls would await his election. Ap¬ prehensions of diis sort are not confined to tho Whig parly. The prominence of men, too much dislinguisbcd in the disgraceful octs of the present administration, preseni a wiriiing too strong to be ilisregarded. The commu.iily has sulfered enough, and die Stale hos been sufliciently degraded in character, to awaken Ilia public to a sense of their duty, and to unite tlicm in one common elfort lo avert the doom lo which a reckless dynasty seems lo havo consigned them. We have resources in intogrity—in mind—and in money if properly brought forlh, to heal our wounded reputation, and to restore us to our former proud and prosperous condition.
'I'he population of Pennsylvania is chiefly com¬ posed of Farmeis, Mechanics, Monufacturors, La¬ borers and men of difl'erent professions.

MR. POLK'S I.ATF. ANTI-TARIFF LET¬ TER REVIEWED, AND RIS POSITION DEFINED.
The following clear and distinct view of the po¬ sitions of thc two presidential candidates on dig TariflT question was presented by Mr. Slewart in a discussion in tho Court Houso ot Uniontown on Friday evening lhe 5di inst.
Mr. Stewaht commenced by saying that to un¬ derstand the subject, it vvas necessary in the first place to ascertain vvhat thc rRr.BixT views and opin¬ ions of Mr. Clay and Polk vvcrc upon the toritT; and then to see what vvould be the piactical opera¬ tion and cfl'ecl of their principles upon the interests •of the co.ialry, if carried out in the administration of the government.
Mr.  Cloy's position, he said, was well under¬ stood—hn isfor the Whig tatilf of 1842, bo bos so declared himself repeatedly ; in proot it is only ne¬ ry lo refer to bis Harri-shing letter of the lldi
from ruin. And now vvlicii the Whig Tarift" of 1842, had just began to operate. This noxious in¬ fluence was pal into rcquisiiion to repeal it, Penn¬ sylvania was true to itself, and for this autlacity, they aro now to bo put in Soulhern bonds—and a The clamor of thc day about bribery, corruption, | repetition of their political rebellion prevented.

JAiMES K. POLK. Joiisr K. K.ixE, Esq., Phdadelphia.
This letter intimotes no chonge, but refers lo his acts and declaralions for his present opinions. Novv, sir, might not George McBuffie, John C.

Iluring thc whole of bis 14 years service in Congress—ba never—never once voted to increase but always to reduce the Tarifl'. I defy his frierids to point out a single instance to tbn contrary.
Mr. Polk soys he is for a tarifl" for revenue suffi¬ cient to dufroy llic expenses of government—so is Mr. Calhoun. He says "I have/leri/o/orc sanc¬ tioned such moihrale di.scriininaling duties os vvould produce thc revenue needed;" he voled for the lariff of 183'.!, (thc only tariff bUl be over voted for in bis life, except the comproiriise bill) and why did bo vote for it!

InlSlO, the parly in power was ctiorged by the people wilh a wrongful administration of public affairs, and after a full discussion and fair trial, a verdict,af guilty wus rendered against it. A change was then emphalically demanded, and on one cai- '4inol point (the Tariff) wos obtained. But in . many other respects the hopes of the people wero dinppointed by the pcifidy of one »f their agenls. Wc are now called upon by the adversaries of thc Whig party, not only to reverse the decision of 1840, but to abandon tho principles on vvbicb that decision was based. Tho same questions arc again presented for re-considcralion, vvhicii wer" then supposed to be setUed, and others of still moro momentous character arc added.
Our first attention is dravvn to the State election for Governor. If that be rightly decided, tho elec¬ tion of Hk.n»t Clai in November will follow, of course. It ought nol for one inoment la bc for¬ gotten, that lo obatin the great objects for which die Whig party is contending, wa must secure harmony of action between tho States and tl.e Dpited States; and that this can only lie affected by (hi election of men identical in their principles.— Nwiing should be sulTcrcd to seperate our efforts \n^portof Gen.

Tho people wero prosperous and liajipy. But a change has come over us. An enormous public debt has some bow or other, been created. Every man's farm is mortgaged for ils redemption. The publie works have been used os a part of tho polil¬ cal machinery of tl.e Stole, for enriching political favorites, and buying povver. The debt has been constantly increasing—not even thc interest paid, but annually and semi-annually tbe interest odtled to tlie principal, and thence tbo wholo upon inter¬ est. By Uiis process, in some eight or ten years, the debt must be doubled—increased from forly to eighty mdlions. The farmer's land, in such event, will bo niorigagcd for a sum nearly equal to its annual rent.

'I'hc Whigs ore in favor of fewer changes in le¬ gislalion in regard to commerce. &c.
