EDWARD LIVINGSTON. ;
ilAARisncno, (Pa.) Sept. 19—This distill- !
guished citizen arrived in Harrisburg vn Thurs-I
ti.ty evening ot last week, in the Lantern stage, >
un<l left here for Neiv \ork on Monday, by way f
of Lancaster and Philadelphia. Mr. Livingston's 1
v rut to Harrisburg was occasioned by protessiou.il I
business. Ho in concerned with Messrs. Ingersoll
and Tilghman ol Philadelphia, as counsel m the '
celebrated claim of Nicholson's heirs; and the pa
pers relating to the case are tiled in the Land Of
fice hero. 1 lie triends of Gen. Jackson, proud in
the idea of having tor their guest a man who has
shone so conspicuously in the various important
posts he has hold in the country, and who was the
.early companion, and continues to be the unwaver
ing friend of their candidate for" the presidency,
|promptly invited him to partake of a public dinner.
-Mr. Livingston was a member of Congress in ’9*1,
land assisted to dethrone the first Adams! He holds
a sent in the same body now, aud will have the •
: gratification of seeing John the 2d, bid a last fare- j
jwell to the cabinet of the nation, unless, like his (
I tatticr, he selects the midnight hour Jur his de- j
i parturef
Agreeably to arrangement, on Saturday at 3 o’- I
|docl a large number of the friends of Gen. Jack- ?
son vat down to a sumptuous dinner, prepared by [
| Mr*. Duchler, in that style ot elegance for which
(she is so justly celebrated. Hubert Harris, K«j.
: was appointed president, and Gen. Samuel l>.
! I'ranks, John C. Huclicr aud Samuel Pool, vice
; presidents. The room was handsomely decorated
with hickory branches, and behind the chair of the
president, on the right of whom sat the honored
; guest, was suspended a superb flag with a likeness
| of Gen. Jackson. Helow the picture was the fol
| lowing sentiment of Jefferson: “ Andrew Jacs
i^ON—Honor and gratitude to the man who has
.filial the measuse of his country's glory.” The
following mottos embellished ‘the sides of the
i painting—» Victor or Death”—“ God and our
(country.” After the cloth v.as removed, several
icgular and Volunteer toast** were drunk. The
‘3d regular toast was as follows:
' li.e Mon. JStuioni'ti Livingston, our distiii
|5guiahed Guest. His civil attainments adorn the
/records of hU adopted State, and his military ser
vice* at Orleans will remain bright on the page of
‘history as long as that glorious victory is remein
3bored'by fieemen. The people ol Pennsylvania
;hail him as the talented advocate ol the rights ol
/man, and th*r early and firm friend of fieri. Jackson, j
; After this toas was drunk, accompanied with •
j thirteen cheers, Mr. Livingston rose, evidently
• much airected, and adJressed the company as foi
* lows:
.[ Gentlemen:—Having visited this place entirelv
/on professional business without the advantage of
-having a single acquaintance among its inhabi
tants, the honor of tlf "
. lis attention was as unexpect
•ed as it is highly grateful to my leeljngs. It is
{conferred upon me by republicans of the old
{school, because they ktiow that during every pe
riod in which I have appeared in public life, 1 have
ibeen a sincere and zealous, although iiiellicient
iassertcr of those principles which supported us
„iu the ytrugulo of the revolution, animated us in
.{that ol lb»0, and which wo are again called on
to assert and rescue from destruction. It is confer
; rt O upon -. IK- (Hon.I nI General Jackson, by
1 those who think his election necessary, to bring
J track the administration of our government to its
’original purity; by those who admire his char.ic
i ter, arc grateful for his services, and indignant at
Hho attempts that are made to depreciate them and
J slander him, are determined by all honorable
! means to place him in the situation which his ser
vices merit, and in which his talents and integrity
will enable him to acquire new claims to the
: gratitude of his country. With this perfect ac
jeordance in purpose and sentiment between us, it
; may seem an unreasonable trespass on your at
tention to t ge any aiguments to produce a con
viction, tvbicb I am persuaded you all more or less
feel, of tbe importance of the ensuing election:
yet, as there may be some who have engaged in
the suppoi t of our candidate, merely* because, they
believe his merits and his qualifications greater
thnti those ol his opponent, it may not be iinproner
to slimy that this is not a contest in which the fit
ness of the respective candidates is the only ques
tion—that it involves some of more vital import
ance, oti which the tranquillity, perhaps the dura
tion of our government inay depend. 1 take the.
Constitution of the United States to ho essentially
a democratic republic—my attachment to it would
he less il I did not think so. It is in its spirit that
the ivillof the people, whenever it can be discov
cied, shall govern the votes of their representa-1
tives in the exercise of their constitutional func-1
lions, as well elective as legislative. In the elec* (
tion of a tirst magistrate, this is particularly the
ense. The people are to chouse the Hectors; aud
l am strongly inclined to think that the epiiitof Ihu
( onstitution lias been violated in ;.!! those cases,
where the State Legislatures have assume*, the
right ol appointing them. And although when the i
people in their electoral colleges have failed to
give a majority of all the votes for any one candi
date, the selection is directed to be made by the •
rcpiesentativps voting l.y States—but the doctrine
is monstrous, that in making this selection, the re
presentative is to follow his own personal prefer
ence,and disregard the known choice of his con-1
abluents! Ycl, >t the last election, this construe
lion was practically given. The representatives
of two States, the one of which had given a ma
jority, and the other the whole of its electoral
votes to Gen. Jackson, tiansferred them to his op.
ponent. The sutnc thing was done by those of an
other State, which had not given its electoral vote
to any ol tii * i .miniates w ho were before (ton
gress, but which had expressed ii» will (m (he on
ij *r»jr in miiui ii coma no ascertained,; tiy it* re
presentation in the Legislature, in favor ot the
same person who had obtained the greatest num
ber of votes. This disregard of the voice ol the
people, gave the presidency to a candidate who
was hirnself «*> sensible of the objections I have
stated, that he lamented that it toas not in hi*
power to submit the question again to the people!
The ensuing election is to test the correctness of
this course of proceeding—a proceeding which, i
independent of its radical lault, its original sin !
against the principles of the Constitution, produces i
inevitable consequences, most strongly to be do- I
prerated ; suspicions of intercs'vd motives, a
scrutiny into private correspondence and unguard
ed conversation, to discover those motive ;-)•»■- 1
criminations, breaches ol confidence, personal al
tercation* and public abuse. If liio Candida!'
who owes hi* elec.C'.iu to votes thus given, aliouid ;
succeed, the same means will heienlirr he comdd
ered as constitutional and propel: And we may p.h- '
pec! that in evgry contested election, they will hi- !
resorted to. Ihit if stamped now hy the seal of j
public reprobation, the will »J the people will la- ■
establish' d as the ru’o of conduct lor their con- j
.•diluent*, end those who have disregarded it will’
ho deprived ot the power they have abused.
In considering the important consequence* of
this election, the mode in which it is conducted, (
ought not to escape animadversion. <>n former *
ore ••ion*, the puhlic conduct of the candidates has I
been severely scrutinized, and even private rha-\
ruder has not escaped; ccn*ure has degeoeiated l
into abuse, and vice* have been lashed with per
haps undue severity. But it was reserved for the
present occasion, and against the candidate wc
Miiqiorf, to resort to means the most odious In them
selves, the most dang'Toits In thc;r consequence*,
and the most unworthy ol those who employ (lietn,
ot any that party rage ha* heretofore imagined.
The object Ol the attack was m in who liad rais
ed the roput.iilon ol bis country, and defended or,e
f ?» : : •-r ’ • -t *
victory as splendid as any recorded in history.
It was deemed necessary, therefore, to depreciate
tlic consequence of tiiis victory, to tear from the
brows of the brave men w ho had gained it the
laurels which their courage and patriotism had
won; to blot the bright page of cur history in
which the achievment was recorded, auJ to per
suade the people of the United States that, in sav
ing a populous city from plunder, the wives and
daughters of its inhabitants from v; hit ion, its
churches from being profaned and a whole state
from the humiliation ol conquest, thn brave men
who e dec tod it, and the tender by whoso courage,
energy and skill they were animated am! directed,
had done nothing to deserve the gratitude of their
country ! And that the United Stales had gained
neither honor nor advantage from a victory that
will preserve (he name of the chief who obtained
lit, ages nfter those ol his detractors shall cease to be
| remembered.
j Thus one oi thoir first attempts is to deprive
_the country audits hia\e citizens of their well
earned glory; to prevent its descending as an
iincentive to great acts to our posterity; to cheat
It hem of the fairest portion of their inheritance, and
[ourselves ol one of the best sources of national
i pride.
But it was not enough to snatch from us t’^p hon
ors we had already won—The means of acquiring
them in future must he destroyed—every power
.exercised by a commander in the defence of the
r country must he called an offence—every act of
| discipline must be considered a violation of per
[ sonal liberty—mutiny, desertion, insubordination
I of every biifd, must go unpunished at the hazard of
being procla imed a tyrant and murderer. The
wrotch who when called upon to defend his coun
try in the hour of extreme danger meanly aban
dons his post and sets the authority of his officer
| at defiance—the three times pardoned deserter—
1 the instigator and associate of the savage who butch
ers unprotected women and children—the savage
I himself who executes this work of destruction, are
| all held up to public cominisseration as suffering
martyrs, because they were made to pay the pe
nally of their crimes.— Lei these charges have
I their etfect; let our candidate loso his election on
(these grounds, and say, where will a commander be
(found, who will dare to entoicediscipline or ex
Jerciso any powers necessary lor the <le fence of his
‘country—For, where is there 011c that may not he
^called an invasion of civil light*? Ithe encamp
his army in the high way, he obstructs its tree
use? it he turn :»«■ itle into a neighbouring Tnld,
it is a trespass’ It he burn a house to save a re
treat, it is arson! It he seizes provisions to teed
hi« famishing troops, it is robbery! it he punish a
deserter, it is murder! it' he prevent Ju lgos and
Lawyers and Sheriffs from taking his etiitinel.H
from their posts, by writs ot habeas corpus, it is a
violation of constitutional rights! And it he will
j not suffer a printer in a besieged town to publish
; intelligence to the enemy, and excite disohedi
I ence in his camp, it violates the sacred liberty ol
the press. The only mode for those who hold this
doctrine is to connive some means by which they
may clear the country of an invading enemy by a
writ ot forcible entry,and make him give up hi*
posts by an ejectment. Thu objections against
^o’.tr candidate on thi* ground, are too absurd even
j for ridicule, and show that tin* authors of them
• despise tl*o understandings of t:;u;u to whom they
| are addressed.
! m persuing the disgusting detail of measures re
; sorted to for promoting the election,we find forgery
ol documents, false accounts of contidi utial coin
tnunicationp, slanderous imputations of every vire,
j and every crime that can excite contempt and de
: testation, applied to a man who has received the
! unanimous thanks of the representatives of the
j nation—who has been spoken of in terms of ihe
most unqualified praise by those revered states
men, whose opinions were considered as the test of
political merit. A man whose conduct, in one of
the instances which most excites the sonsele-s
clamour ageinst him, was tlie subject of a labored
defence, amounting to panegyric, made by the
candidate who is now opposed to him—a man
whose reputation i* identif:-d with tint ol his coun
try, the measure of whose glory he has lilted to o
verflowiiig.
How degrading this is to diii country, le t Ihe
reflection ofuveryconsider.de man declare. Al
ready the papers of foreign nations arc tilled with
the most invidious and biting sarcasms, not only
against our manners our taste, t.nil style of con
troversy, hut against the nature of our govern
ment, winch it is supposed fosters lid.-; * ulgar a
liusc. If the election ol the present incumbent
docs not inquire these meat.-, they had bcitei be
avoided, for his honor, as well a- f >rthc reputation
of the country. If it does requite them, what
shall we s.iy of his cause?
It may he remarked, to the honor of our coun
try, that in no others is the female character hold
more sacred. A woman may travel alone front
one extreme of the L tiion to the other, without
an insult, unprotected but by her modesty and
the respectful courtesy that is paid to her se*, and
everywhere she would find a champion to avenge
even an insulting look. lie fore the present con
test, the most violent zealot of a party, or the most
degraded ot the vile tribe who prostitute their ta
lents to tim political iggrandi/nmeiil of other*,
have not dared to stain the pages ol our papers
with the remotest allusion to female character.
It was reserved for tIris controversy to change
tills honorable feature in tin.* character of our coun
try, by a ruffian attack on tbjt of a mock, pious,
charitable, honorable matron —an attack as false
as it i* base ami unmanly. :f any thing could
add to our detestation of those slanders, it would
bo the perseverance with which they arc u<mv
vamped anil repeated, when they harcMiccn de
monstrated to bo false. •* Time was (Shc.abc.sprarc
says) that wli»*n the brains were out tho man
would die.” Time was that when a slar dei was !
msprovcu, we liearilol it no more—tint now. knock

h'norti lying circumstance, that the honor of tlio
i country, and the reputation of its best citizens are
Jassailed—its peace, its constitution endangered,
;and its moral character stained by wretches who?u
(days are passed iu disseminating or collecting plan
('ders—-who lie down at night and contriv-' tiie false
hoods they shall utter in the morning; (or whoso
taste no abuse is too foul, no calumny too absurd;
fwho attack the living ami the dead; whose viper
ous slander feeds its poison in the secrets of ll:o
grave when it cannot creep into tho e cd' domestic

youth with degrading ideas of their country’s hon
or, and who do this dirty woik for hire, w uhouf tho
poor excuse of personal animosity to the one party,
or attachment to the other.
I have ventured to enlarge upon this them*1,
gentlemen, partly to prove that if we wish to pre
j serve our republican institutions and the morals of
jour people fioin pollution, it h necessary io strain
i every nerve to put down this first attempt upon the
t integrity of our system—and partly because ih»
| expression of your indignation and contempt of
these unworthy attacks, may discourage any at
tempt by our friends to rontcud with the came Wea
pons. .Strong in the chaiacter, services and t.v
; tents of the men we support, vve need no such
means, and vve disdain them even if they were jn.
cess ry to our success.
No, gentlemen, vve have better grounds for con
fidence. The man we support did not couit tho
oincp which ine voice ol Ins countiy calls him to
1 till. To republicans in Pennsylvania I need not
repeat the many titles lie has to their support,
i 'they were second only to his own State, in a re - ’
solution to reward his past service*, and avail them
selves of the luture by conferring*on him tin:?
voles for the first olfice in their gift. I’onnsylvani-"
. nns are not given to change—they Were lus first,
his zealous,and will b- his constant and y.e ujo
now assured, his successlul supporters.
For my own part, when my duty required tnn
to make the selection between the two candidates,
1 did not hesitate.—Not from any dislike to Air.
Adams, for I had none; on the contrary, I had a
high opinion ot iiis talents, and believed* in his | o
litical and private integrity; but from a derided
preference to the other candidate, who»e qualities
1 thought better fitted him for the place. Nor jias
reflection or any subsequent event, changed the
i opinion l had then form it. ; first knew him when
we were member- of the same House ot liepre
, sentatives, more than thirty years ago, and he then
inspired me with respect for the firmness of ins
charactci. the purity ot his political principles, and
the sound understanding he evinced in their suj>
pait. From that time we never met until he tut
.ealle 1 to conduct the defence ot the city in which
l lived, t u his conduct ot that defence, ho de
veloped the resources of a mind that proclaimed him
equal to ..ny task which the service ot his country
could require. Energy combined with piqdence,
courage to face not only the dangers of the field)
hut to incur the responsibility of every measure,’
however unpopular, that was uocessory for tbe
defence of the country; stern integrity; the most,
disinterested contempt of private emolument; cour
tesy of manner, that won the hearts ot all who ap
proached him, and that commanded the admiration
uvi n of the enemy, in his epistolary intercourse_
And above r.ll, a respectful buhmi-i-ion to the I’atys,
even when they were ^o a lininisten d as to impose
a heavy penalty for acts which he conceived hiin
r-clf foiced to do for the prest-i vation ■ i tho-c l.iws.
1diese qualities, when your ].-tii,iiu aliairs are pl.ic
rd utuler hi- diivrtio.i, will enable him to conduct
them with wisdom and nil cros#. Ho may not",
perhaps,with the dexterity of others twine the coL
w. I> thread of diplomatic so,di> try: but lie will
pursue the inten ,-t id hi- country, in its foreign
relations, io the plain path winch honest intention*'
will always mark on, difid • mg any attempt to
over-rent h, with too touch sagacity to be himscir
deceived, and with a firmness" that will never be
overawed. This, gentlemen, is worlh all the still
in diplomacy of which wc have heaid so much, and
seen so few beneficial «ffects. At home lie tv i
perform his duty and see that others perform theirs.
The teat of Government will not at stated season-:
be deserted, nor will the duties ol all the depart
ment be heaped upou one head. Ah this wo have a
right to expect from the character of the caml d
ate wc support.—That he will be cho-en, there
can he now no doubt. L-t us all endeavor that
it-hall he by so fiiiimplinnl a majority us-wilt
show the indignation of the people against tbu
foul moans by which ho, and his Country's Inner
through him, lias been assailed. \V*: shall
evoiil the rccuriencc of the disgraceful scenes
that now surround us- we shall become a happy, a
united, a republican people; ami tilllii u/h wc
shall always know our panic . and our | ii-fere ri
ces, thoy will not probably he attended with tim
excesses which characferi/.o ilic presriit rofi(rLt
— for the event will have proved that they are
useless, as well as unworthy of a free people.
I have not yen l it red to mix with the important
topics mi which 1 have tourhed, ai.\ individual

that with which my heart is filled, gratitude tor
your unexpected and highly ll.iUering attention,
and the hope given hy your kindness ihat j shall
