Ihe Gazette shows that the County owed the State at the end of Taylor's term, §1490 87 This '.a hue, and in our term we paid this amount off, §ll3O 00 to Win. Hartley, and §450.C0 *o Wm. M. Hall's es'pr,making in all S3O 0 8/, and the Gazette states what is a fact, tLat (be Commissioners only paid over to us §23<5 7*2, nearly § : imissioners improperly ' ex-aerated Collectors , and hough it is charged i tc :hc late Treasurer, the County will have to j pay it! Here are only two items in which the t County loses about §IIOO.OO by the stupidity \ and carelessness of the Locofoco officer? !! ! So much for that. We also paid in our tern, to the Western 1 cuitentiary, on Check of the Commissioners, §237.23, an unusual expenditure, for we be lieve the County had uot been called on for ten years for any money for that institution. We also paid four or live hundred dollars interest i on borrowed money in our term. The booby states that the indebtedness of the i Couuiy to the State was more tli.au doubled in our term. If it was, whose fault is it? D 0 j we oof show above that we paid in the neigh- | borhood of $4000.00 of Locofoeo debt and I interest, some of which was caused by the ! -bungling" and stupidity of t U Locofoeo : Commissioners and Clerk. That paper charges this altogether on the lute Treasurer ! How ridiculous! Any man , of sense knows better! Could we payout any r>->ney at all, without the authority of the ; Commissioners ? Does not the Treasurer pay I too money on their chocks, and does I not! hold theswehrr-k? , s l,; s vouchers at settlement ?!

If it is improperly expinded, they are the cause; and wc contend that money has been improper ly expended, within the last few years whilst we were Treasurer, before and since, and the Treasurer cannot prevent it any more than the man in tho moon. The Commissioners send the check to the Treasurer, it is his duty to pay it, and ho docs not know whether they are allowing a just bill or not. If the County has spent so much lately, we have to thank the Lo cofoco officers, who allow the bills, and none other. When the opposition came into power, a j few rears ago, the debt of the County was §4,- 660.20—they paid of about §1,600.00 and since the Locofocos have again come :DIO pow er, they have run the debt up lo between §B,- 000.00 and §9,000.00; and not a dollar is now in the Treasury 1 Is it not time the peo- j pie should tnako a change ? The Gazette mentions some Collectors as be ing back, and says they are all opposition.— Among others ho names tho Collector of Cole rain, for §465.50. Mr. James was appointed, but Mr. Gump took the job off his hands, and 'Squire Gump is a Locofoco, and it is he that owes the County. Wc could name the Loeo focc Collectors for S. and M. Woodberry, Southampton, Cumberland Valley, Londonder ry, East Providence, &c., &e., for last and oth er years, all Locofocos, and owing the County equally as much as those that paper has named. We again put the following questions to the Locofoco party, ns they have not yet been an l swered: What is the amount of indebtedness of the County of Bedford? How mony thousands of dollars wcro bor rowed last Spriug ? --How many hundreds of dollars, yearly, has Leeu paid, in the last two or three years, for repairing the Court House and Jail ? —Why they have, during this whole year, and in these hard times, a man tinkering about the public buildiugs? —How many hundreds of dollars will these buildings cost this year, up to this time ? —How many will they cost till the end of ihe yeai? —Why they don't stop this unnecessary ex pense, when 'here is not a dollar in the Treas ury to pay the smallest amounts ? —Whether it. is right, because ihis tinker a few years ago turned Locofoco, that he should be pensioned off the whole county, and be al lowed his own prices ? - Whether this work is not altogether un necessary, and costs double as much us it ought ? —And whether Ijoeofoeoism is not the I cause of the vast indebtedness of our County j and State, and also the cause of tho present j hard times ? f- * c - - uccoure m cnir""irssei 1 1ion ~ ( t hat Major • Davis, the present Loco Foco | Treasurer, paid about §BOO.OO of Stafo mon j ay the first Court, without the authority of the I Commissioner.-?

Let the laboring men of Pennsylvania, and particularly of the 17th Congressional Distriot, remember, that tiio Locofooo National Conven tion that nominated James Ruchunan, at Cin cinnati, adopted the following resolution, us ono of the planks in their platform, and that WILSON UK ILLY endorses tins resolution : "Resolved , That there are questions connect ed with the foreigu policy of this country, which are inferior to no domestic question what ever. Thi time. has come for Ihe people of the United States to declare themselves in favor of free seas , AND PROGRESSIVE FREE TRADE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, and, by solemn manifestations to place their moral influence at the side of their successful example." Let the laboring classes of the 17 th District, remember that the fallowing Free Trade, and Direct Tax resolutions were passed by the last Locofoeo House of Representatives : -Resolved, That the EXISTING TARIFF IS DEFECTIVE as being founded on the PROTECTIVE POLICY. "Resolved, That the highest development of the industrial resources of the country is to be attained by the GREATEST FREEDOM OF EXCHANGES, which can only be thoroughly accomplished by the ENTIRE AROLITIOX OF DUTIES ON IMPORTS, and a resort EXCLUSIVELY TO DIRECT TAXA TION." Let the laboring tuen of the 17th District, remember, that only one Jaocofocc from Penn sylvania, (Asa Paol#r,) had the courage to vote against the above free Trade, and Direct Tax resolutions. The vote stood as follows : YEAS— For Progressive Free Trade, 123, to u '' • 39 Eastern Republicans, and 11 Southern Americans.

Let the laboring classes of the 17th District, remember, that WILSON REILLY is in favor of Free Trade and Direct Taxation —that he j dodged the vote on the above Free Trade Brit ish resolutions , aud that if he had had the cour age to have voted upon them, ho would bavo 1 voted along with tire other Free Traders of his j party.

The Democratic Convention of Franklin coun ty met a few days since, and after completing its regular business, the following resolution was submitted : Resolved, That we endorse Gov. Win.

How has the Gov ernor offended? Are we to understand that the zealots and ultras who voted in the nega tive are attached to the Administration, and that they adopted this course, for the purpose of rebuking the Governor, in consequence of I his Anti Leeomptou sentiments?

David Hay and Extra Pay. Our readers well remember that there was a i limmi r ' the Legislat u re at ils last fes jDAVl l? 11 .\ Y who is now on the Locofoeo ; ticket in this District, was a member, and I POCKETED THE EXTRA TWO HUN DRED DOLLARS! When DAVID HAY • or any of his friends ask you to vote for him, | just stick this at tbem and tell them that should j David be re-elected another law ought be passed j increasing the pap §2OO more, and he, the said : David, would pocket the money. If DAVID | HAY had been opposed to the law, although ; Ire voted against it, he would have done like | Judge N'ill of Chambcrsburg, who opposed the j increase and refused to take it! The following I 1? Air. Mill's Speech, ou the question. Read it, and {hen ask yourself if David Hay did rige.t in pocketing the extra pay : REMARKS OF MR. NILL o>> TAKING §2OO AS EXTRA PAY. j It is somewhat singular that this House | should manifest a disposition to vote to its I members each the sum of §SOO besides the 1 regular salary. Lot us sec how the history of Legislative pay has been. Formoily members received $3 per day. This session will include one hundred aud eight days The pay for this would be three hundred ami twenty-four dol lars. In 1855 the Auiericau or Kuovr-Noth ing Legislature choseu in 1854, raise! the pay j to the salary of five liuudred dollars per ses i sion, and if an extra session was convened by the Executive, three dollars a day was paid as i the compensation for its duration ; with this ! the Democrats aud old line Whigs found fault, j and so did many of the Americans. The Leg- I islature of 1856, which was Democratic, met and did not change the act of the previous ses sion. In 1857, another Democratic Legislature , met, and received tho regular salary of five ! hundred dollars, and took besides two hundred j more. Among the people this act was very ' much censured. How do we stand ou this ' question ? When elected every man knew what the salary was, and if he did not intend i to take that as tho reward of his services ho! should not have come here. It is said that we do not make much. This I graut. Rut did we come here merely to make money ? Have we no regard for the interests of the Common wealth? Caunot wo devote a few days to her service without expecting to become rich by it ? j The aggregate of this Legislative plunder is! §26,0U0 —no inconsiderable sum. It we have a right, in discharging our duty faithfully to our constituents, to take two hun dred dollars apieco out of the treasury iu this clandestine way, why may we not vote our selves one thousand dollars or more, if there was enough there to gratify our avaricious pro pensities ? If by an amendment of the kind added in committee of the whole, we had laid our greedy hands on one thousand or twelve hundred dollars each, those who sent us here would have been appalled at the cuoruiity of the deed, and would have spared no terms of dunuueiation in applying suitabl epithets to our plundering aer. Hence it is olmous that the difference is only in degreo—the principle is the same. Geutlomeu say their constituents applaud and commend such acts. The gen tleman from Schuylkill, (Mr. Hippie,} believes his constituents would do it; yot he sectns somewhat sore iu reference to my course ou this question. He seems to feel uuplcasaut, notwithstanding the vaunted laudation of his confiding constituents. 1 inform him that I have preformed my duty according to tuy cou scientions convictions, and if his conscience has led hint to take the tuoitey, he can pursue his own couisc. We are daily finding fault with the vultures here who act as borers, and constitute the third House. This body is believed to be more numerous than the Senate. Soute of them are intelligent—all are shrewd—and it is fair to presume that they are not influenced by pure motives. It' we take money out of the treas ury by a law which we pass to shield ourselves from tie imputation of receiving it as the steal ings of office, arc we better than borers—ate we not vultures, who have been choscu to guard the treasury, and who, from having itch ing paluis, are unfaithful sentinels ? We ate sworn to support the Constitution, aud to per form our duty with fidelity. When we dauie here we hud no light to this mouey by law.— We cannot take it out of the treasury without an act being passed by ourselves to au'hovize it. In this we only differ from other plunder ers by having the power to legalize our dis honesty. More than this, we are legislating, by passing acts, and thst very properly, te punish l iving Fund and Bank officers for embezzlement —for putting their hands to the money entrusted to their charge, whilst we are doing the same.— No Saving Fund or Hank officer who takes the money committed to his care, aud appropriates it to his own use, occupies, in morals, a dif ferent situation {'torn what wo do by using the State funds in the same nianuer. If this act is passed, 1 can never receive one cent of such ill gotten gains. LIKE THE WEDGE OF GOLD THAT AcilAN TOOK, IN JIT ESTIMATION IT IS INFAMOUS.

We cull the attention of all our readers, , Democrats and all others, to the speech of Col. ' Forney. He has been for years ihe leading Democrat in this State, but differs now with tlie President, on Leeomplcn, and ho proves conclusively that the position of the auti-I.e compton Democrats is one. By a card which wo copy below, it will be ! seea that Mr. Forney spoke with deliberation; I not only meant ail he said, but intends in due J time to prove it. ""["A CAUD.— When 1 spoke to the electors at Tarry town, New York, I did so upon the <"c --i liberate expectation that from the impenitent ! calumniator and convict of slit* New York ller ! aid to down the pensioner of the Washington Union, I would be abundantly traduced and misrepresented An Administration which I j assisted, not inconsiderably, to elevate to the | power which it has wisely abused; his not hes itated to make an honest difference of opinion a pretext for a prescription extending to my business an 1 to my most intimate relations* and ' I am not surprised at the spirit which my re ; marks at Tarry town have created in that quarter, i This is to state that I shall caluily await the ; *cc | mal atM>n the accusations of the Ad -1 way, VO'I .n my own! good 1 lime,'l thfl JMveHTrf ■ that i have written and spoken as to the gross I betrayal of arrest principle and a solemn ; pledge, and still further establish the justice J and strength of the PRESS and of myself.

The anti-Lecompton Democracy of Berk- County, have nominated a candidate for Oou | gress in opposition to J. Giancy Jones, and al so a whole County ticket. This looks bad for : the old citadel of Democracy. In the Fifth District Col. John Wood, ami | Lecomptou Democrat has been uomiuatcd io i to Owed Jones, liecompton, and ipresoi> f member.

IHE VALUE OF A NOSE.—A nose in itself, : detached from a face, is apparently of very lit tle value, and yet there are very few petsous who would be willing to exchange their nose for all the ready cash in the vaults of a specie paying bank. A very clever story of a nose 1 is told by Klopstock, the celebrated German [ author. A young fellow was desperately en tun | ored of a young lady, and his affection was reciprocated. She was worth twenty thousand thalers in her own right, while he was worth •'nary red.'' For this reason her guardian ; objected to the match, lu his desperation ho I consulted u crafty old Lawyer, who heard his I story, and then told him he would put him through for a prospective fee, and he was as good as his word. He fir-t asked the young ; lover if he would agrco to take twenty thous- I and thalers FOR ins NOSE ? To this the young \ fellow gave a deuided nay. Old Foxy the At- j toruey tben went to the Guardian, "aud told j him that it was all a "hum" about his young ! friend being so poor, that to his certain knowl- j edge he had ono jewel alone for which he RE- i FUSED twenty thousand thalers ! This satisfi- ! ed the Guardian, and the wedding came off.— j Of course, when he got a sight of the jewel he swore some. Speaking of noses, and their positive and comparative value, read the affidavit of Mr. I). MoCreary in to-day's paper. He has been so uufortunate as to lose his nose, but fortunate enougli to get hold of LINDSEY'S IMPROVED BLOOD SEARCHER, which has not only saved the balance of his face, but actually prevent ed one of the most lingering, painful and horrible deaths imaginable. Read the afiida. vid. The inaD is known, and the marks on his face attest the truth of his statement.
