This slander an Sherin Magee lies been re
nted by the Know-Nothing ergys in the
interior, in the vain effort to create syMpa•
thy for their dying cause. The people have
Seen through their shallowness, and arc look
ing upon them with that contempt that de
portion and moth& always meet with. The
Philadelphia Dispatch,* nceitral vapir holds
forth as follow's: Tim 11ally News, which
line well earned for itself 'the application of
" a tin kettle tied to the tail. of Know-NO.li
ingism," in an attempt to defend its absitril
falsehood that Sheriff Magee appointed eight
; hundred special policemen on the day of
'destine, and that they all voted 11nm:times
each, ind'ulges' in its " charactee istic to ad
dle," and confesses that it knows ' , nothing
afoot that of which it has sd flippantly
spoken. The News having raised up the
eight hundred and multiplied them to a tre
mendous er,ttnt, now admits that it does not
know how many deputies were appointed by
' the Sheriff. The " tin kettle," in relation to
this matter, oliserves :
Tlie fluty means that we litive of, ktQwing
the number of these persdns - appointed,
dint derived from very general aswrtfois en
the day before the election, in reference to
which we know that rho.ma i or bf the city
addressed the Sheriff, who did not deign to
reply. Thu e is, of course, 'no means of
huffing the extent to which this outrage was
carried, or the molter of men appointed,
except through sources open only to those
who were engaged in committing them ; and
since they hare been successful, it. is by no
means impropable that the funds for the
payment of the persons employed a ill he ob•
tanned front line treasury by such inflow
twin as to guard against further exposure.
This is a very candid admission. The
Nora adopts " a general assertton"-- that is
an electioneering lie-- uttered the day before
the electron. It aser;i that there is no means
of " ascertaining the extent." of the " out
rage." Vet, it is true—and the News ad
mita it —that three journals published in this
city have specified the number from infor
mation obtained from the Shenff. Mill, the
Newt, which knows nothing about the mat
ter, prefers a general assertion, made by. the
lying toniue of rumor, to ascertained facts.
Wu do not envy our neighbor its obstinacy
and perveisity The " tin kettle of Knott -
Nothingism" objects that we have pro
nounced its charges of freed, made the day
after the clectic , n as foamy. We were chari
table tnough to semis° that they were
mere ebullitions of anger, evolved in the too
went of defeat, at which moment fond no
tions of profitable printing n ere overtnrncd.
As the "tin kettle•' still persists in them,
after proper explanation, we withdraw our
first word. The tuaddle of the Netri in re
ference to this fraud, which is now persisted
hi, despite of evidence to the contrary, has
ceased to be " funny" -it is retched.

are doing along the line. 4Yo join you, capi

at the map can see that our road Ia the'only
link yet needed to carry travel and trade
from any point in the cast to Pittsburg. The
cost of our road as estimated by our engineer
II $1,888,317.50, which is at least • quarter
too high according to the present prkies of
work, He estimates excavation at 2 :C,tlisi
which can surely be done fur 12i, rock at
cents, masonry at 55,50, 'which owing to
convenience of materials can be done for a
third less. Iron at seventy•ffire dollars par

estimate was upon the basis of the cost of •

Even supposing the road would not pay per
