ANTI-HARRISON CELEBRATION.
In the Vun Uurvii paper• of Milledgevillr
find tho subjoined proceedings of a meeting of our
poli'ical friend*. nl tho seal of government.
Let every county in tic State be amused, and le
tho Republicans lie represented by numbers on tin*
day which.tried tilt* principles of tin* Whigs of 70.
whoso principles the Putnecracy of tho present doy
uphold in lhair Republican simplicity, anti Kopub
licun purity. Tlmso principles me us undying e
time, and while this free Government exiits, the
people, us a party associated fur their preset vation,
will purgu them of tho innovations which false con
verts would impose, mid exhibit them In tbeir oilgi
ginal purity, to tho contemplation of successive
generations. Now, thru we urn In ought nuurur and
ncanrto tho Governments ol tiiu old world, by tin 1
powerful agency of steam, and at tills day w ben
luxury und exirnvogaiico buve left tln ir desuln ing
tracks through our midst, it liecumes stauucli Re
publicans to rally upou the platform of th if Reptile
licun fathers, and by frequent reeutrence to the
principles of tln-ir luitii, join hands in did- tiding
from the nssuu'ts of thu allied foices of the opposi
tion, the battered tuinp.irts ol our glorious Consti
tution.
. Dor closer connexion, in distnneo, with th-- dcs.
potlc goveinmunis of Europe, whose subjects, from
interest or ph-ostre, mingle repeatedly with the
citizens ef Iiumi Slat a. should prompt us the more
to cling to lliu articles ot'our faitli, ami by untiling
vigilance, on llie pint alike of dm ug.-d patriot, itml
the vigorous ami manly citizen, to teach the youth
to seek the way, whieh followed by hi* fathers, has
proved u path si rowed with tho bles.-dags of u wise
und bountiful l'rovidi nco.
Let not luxury enduvo the fn-etnen of America,
but let a pi Uilem economy, llie f, nit of Republican
•implicit)’ provuil, for whore simplicity dwells ini's
•potlcss garli, there reigns the pure nod uruff cted
•pirit ofn hospiiulity which know* no dissembling,
but like truth sparkles in the human countenance
even us the luttor is pencilled forth in Hie rainbow
of tbo Jhniaioeul. Lotus npo not the extravagant
expciuliiuit-s of foreign nabobs, l.ut living within our
means, rebuke liy our example ihul fondness for
litxuiy which will sooner than any otfar men-ure,
prostrate the Indi-pendetiee ofn people, for it works
unresisted, bemuse unconsciously, nguiii't tho sour
cos of onr prosperity und unfailingly undermines
tlwirvery exisicucMe-.vLot iiiilopcu.ltnee be chciish
ed in uveiy tiling, but lot it be an iiidepeadence,
proof nguinst the nppninchcs of the iiiuueyed Aris
tocrat, who would convert tile bankrupt to hi* faith,
and alike free frum tho sophistry of llto brawling
demagogue who would exalt u banner to beguile the
unwary and would ill the liutira « f Democracy utter
tho strains of, und execute tho commands of associa
ted w. uhli.
Let the pres*, ton,ho independent—fruoas the air
inhaled by freemen, llut let it also bs free from
licentiousness, While scanning tliodcmei it* of pub
lie inuu. let not the veil which shields thu sanctity
of private life,be tn'S"d byarude band, hutuvo:ding
theforbhhh n ground (ih-- s; en d spot in tho garden
of Kilen to ilia public journalists) let the peoples
o.gun roam undismayed through tlmcomtsofjuctice,
tho bulls of legislation, the rooms uf the executive,
and expose those errors or abuse, wherever to ho
found, which it is the duly of a sentinel on the walch
tower, the active lopiurantutivo of u jealous people
to report.
Such uro tho obligations of the press.
Tlioso of the people uro of more magnitude. Not
•theless-incumbent,n* it is,for thorn us amn-a,topre.
servo unimpaired the purity of tho press, they should,
a« a msss.irown upon evoiy, the least attempt on the
purtofiu conducturs to deviuta from a course,
which wlicn deserted, rouses tho passions of men
instead of addressing llicir rvuson, and urges them
to commit deeds wliit-h in tho dispnssioimlo me.
tnents of reflection would bo deplored.
But while checking the lie. ntiud^gp* of the press
(and tho most effi'etun' mode of doing so is to check
its circulation byd nying individual patronage) tho
efibrts to do so sh' Uld never degenerate into that
very spit It of licentiousness, for it is better, fur bet
ter that the press should Ira free even to licentious*
ness, that its utilises should be overlooked, than that
its spirit should lie controlled by nny other tidu tliun
the resistless current of public opinion.
To preserve its fierdmn inviolate abuses whirlt
entrench upon personal tights should be left to the
individual* wronged, and however the slandered be
despised let Ids punishment i*e rather the scorn of
the good tliun tho stripes of violence. Tho Old
Standard notices the cootemplulrd assemblage of
the Democracy nt M lledgevRle, thus;—
ANTI*HARRISON CELEBRATION.
Our readers will leant from the proceedings ofn
meeting beM ill this city, on the 12th in»t, •lint pro
5 orations nre in progress tacel< brute the faurh of
uly, by citizens opposed to the elec ion orUeuciut
Harrison.
It is hoped them will be n great assemblage upon
(the occasion—that those who are ri-soivi-d to pre
serve the rights of ilicStutes from federal violation,
will meet together to aid each other v itli tlicirconn*
.•el, and itil'u-u fresh life into the republican ranks,
•ml give a now impetus to th. cause.
It i« no time to cavil about straws, or to stand
.back fmtn a contest wb« re so much is at s>uke. Tiie
platform upon which vv" stand, is the same • non
which onr republican fathers stood almost uu half a

Levis was accordingly taken into custody. On
his person vvero found 100 franc* (20 dullurs,)iu
