GAZETTEER . OF PENNSYLVANIA.—In our
advertising columns will he found proposals .
for publishing a Gazetteer of this State—to
which we respectfully invite the attention of
our readers. Such a'work, says the Harris ,
burg Reporter, if properly executed, cannot
fail to be eminently useful. A mere detail
of the boundaries of a county, the situation
of a town or village; and their population—
facts that commonly compose the materials
of a Gazetteer, would render the work a
mere bocik far occasional references; we are
pleasedtherefore, that it is proposed to take
in the past and present history of the state;
to give the details of its early settlements,
the difficulties the pioneers of the wilderness
had to encounter from the ruthless attacks
of the Indians; the expeditions against them;
and notices of the distinOished ?men who
have contributed to its prosperity, honor and
reputation. How many interesting details
II e -- • les ds have been Jost by, thed. paths
of those who were, actors in the scenes of
the struggles for the domestic peace and po
lities,' literty we are blessed with, and from
inattention in not recording them! MuCh,
however, still is preserved in the accurate
memories of their children and it is a duty
---to-eommunicate all. they- . know. on the. sub,...
ject. The people of the New-England states
have been much more' attentive to theriv .
. points. From their earliest settlement, am
ple records were kept, and many of them
have been published.. Let us therefore,
snatch from oblivion, the history of events,
'of the progress of improvements, and of those
persons who by their perseverance, industry,
• and sufferings, have contributed to rnake the
,) state whet it is., Every man in Pennsylva
nia is interested in rendering the proposed
work as full. as possible, and we therefore
hops; that all who can, will furnish the facts
to enable the author to satisfy himself and
the public. .

TILE NEXT GOVERNOR
Vroin every indication of public opinion, it
is now almost reduced to a certainty, that .
the contest will be between the Anti-Mason
ic candidate, and “eorge Wolf. Whether
Mr. Shulze, Mr. Rush, or Mr. Miner,
be that candidate, we can only surmise from
the expression of public sentiment through
out the State, and which appears4o its to be
decidedly in favor of Ritner. Sonic pre
judice agtunst Mr. Riuier seems to prevail
in this section of the State; bnt we have
lately conversed with a gentleman from
Pittsburg, who declares him to lie the most
popular man that can be nominated, and
that he will receive two rotes to AI r. Wolf's
one in every Western county. The preju
dice which exists here, has been excited by
an idea of want of talent in Mr: Ritner; but
this is tui error. Mr. Rinker, it is true, is
not a classical scholar, but he is a strong
minded man self:educated, and fully compe
tent. to the trust; being firm, independent,
and discriminating; with a good knowledge
of men, and an intimate aci,-iiintance
the whole economy of the State. Mr Rit
ner belongs-to that-class of .men, who have
given us a Franklin, a Girard, a Penn,
and he will do the State such service, as will
entitle him to applause ; and cause bin to be
remembered with gratitude by the twople:
should he be nominated by the anti-Masonic
convention of the 22d ,Vebruary. •

MASSACIII7SETTS MASONIC MANIFESTO.
About twelve hundred brethren of the
rnY'Mic fie, in Massachusetts, have subscri
bed a Declaration in which they deny the
e.'stence, so far as their knowledge respec
tively extends, of any obligations in the Ma
sonic Institution "at variance with the fun
damental principles of morality, and incom
patible with the duty of the recipient as a
good and faithful citizen."
The °Allis, literally an,d fully, as admin
istered to candidates in the lodges, have
been disclosed by the Le Roy Convention
01'Se:ceding masons. Other individuals have
at diabrent times prornulged the oaths and
Obligations which tfiey allegiidliaitbetafail:'
ministered to them at their initiation, and
which they declared were to. their know
ledge so administered to others in lodges ;
and these on comparison were found to cor
respond, substantially, with the disclosures
of the Le Roy Convention. The oaths thus
disclosed have repeatedly become subjects
off - investigation -- irr courts — of justice ;•• and
their truth and accuracy hWe—been sworn
to in several instances; - both by seceding
and by adhering masons. In addition to
this, we have the concurrent" testimony of
more than five thousand seceders, that the
oaths are administered in the lodges, sub
stantially and in the main literally, as given
in Bernard's Light on Masonry. And no
adhering mason, who denied the accuracy
of the oaths in „general terms; has ever been
able to stand the test of fair scrutinOnto
particulars. It must be admitted then; if
human testimony be ofany value and human
experience can at all . be relied on, that the
oaths and obligations as published are cor
rect and true. And this being the case, it
is fairly and, properly the province of the
people to . judge of the character and temien
cy of these oaths. The interpretations and
constructions given to them - by masons„ara
of no account in this controversy, and can
not weigh . a feather. The oaths themselves
are tholleinton which this part of the con
troversy turns; and if the masons deny that
those published by antimasons are correct,
let them furnish 4opies, equally'well nuthen
ti9ated, of the oaths as they admit them to
be administered in the Lodges. This is
thetr only alternative.--[Lancaster Exam.
