The' ccming election, is one of great importance lothe people of Pennsylvania; and never was the ;•dety of the people, to examine the questions in ivoleiet, and decide correctly, more strongly sus., Rested by their interests, than at the present time. , At is a question of whether an "honest and compe. ten: man, who has devoted hireise:f faithfully tot 'itha p o notion of the , best interests of the people, !and ender whose administration the public confi e ,deace ie revived, and the axe prospering in anl ;unprecedented degree, shall be removed to make ,!place for a men walnut any known qualifications far the place, except his adheience to a party with-, • net principles or measures with ch they da•e avowl ,—which has on all cceasicns heretofore shown it-1 a It incapable of administering the gavernment without th' peipetration of the n. 031 signal abases, far which the ; eaple have, in every inetence.eject.l el it from pen er an the first epporturiity. l'uring the administration of Frateds H.

To this assertion we challenge truthful and, • succeesful cuntrediction from any responsible ; source.

During bis administration, the accounts of public off i cers have been more' promptly settled, and more outstanding' balances, , l wine from former delinquents, collected than during any preceding admiuietration. He has advocated' . I . the necessity of maintaining a sound currency, l e•and without aiming-at the destruction of the bank.' sting syeterp, he has adve.ted emphatically to the ,evils of its excesses, and urged upon the legisla , Mae and the people the importance of restraining and keeping it within reusonable • bounds, in order that its benefits may be erijnyed ; and its mischiefs I Ass moans calcula'ed to effect this great object,' Ite has recommended that binkers, as well as other' ',corporator& who engage in bueiness for private gain, , `should be•liaMe to pay their debts as other individ i eels are.'

ID they have really abandoned a Banltlof, the United States, why did :they denounce John!Tyler as a trainar to - Whig prieciptes, for bis veto of the bank? There is one question, however, of State policy, that weknOW , the Federal party is in 'favor of, and on we join issue' most cheerfully. On this measure we have their names on the record as late as the last session of the legislature : we allude to the - alit - providing for a transfer of the public irri provenaetits to a company. On the filth of February last, Mr. Williamson, 4 .Federal member from 'Chester county, read. in liis, pfece alailpemitlerl--wAti act -to incorporate- tbisi -Pennsylvania Canal and" Railroad Company, and', tO provide a sinking fund -for the public debt;" which was laiiPon the tdbl I. On the 12th et the same month, this bill was committed to the Com-, mittee of Internal Improvements, and on the 17th it was reported to the Senate. On the 22d it was, referred to the Committee of the Whole, and on the same day reported back to the Senate, and on motion of Messrs, Carson and Johnson, both con spicuous whigs, the bill was immediately read a second time, and on the question, shall it pass ? the queStion was, on motion of Messrs.. Bigler & Dim mick, postponed for the present. On the 27th, Messrs. Johnson and Sin jeer, both whigs, moved I that the Senate proceed to the consideration of the I bill, when a motion was made by 'Messrs. Black I and Anderson to postpone, which was negatived I by a party vote---16 to 1), and then the remaining sections passed. _, I On the 2d MarCh it was ordered to be transcri bed for a third raading, On the sth March it passed a third-reading by the tbllowing vote : Yeas—Messrs. Boas. Carson, Common, Crabb, l IDarragh, Darsie, Gillis, ,Harris, ;Johnson, Jordon, 1 Levis, Morrison, Williamson and Gibbons, 16, all Federalists except Mr. Gillis. Black, Creaeraft, Hill, Hoover, Mason,Oteifield, Potteiger and Ross, i 11, ell Democrats. Now we unhesitatingly pronounce the passage I of this bill as the boldest and most reckless mea sure and the greatest fraud' on the people of this I t i State, that has Wen attended since the passage of the ank of the United States iii 1836, by a most corrupt and foul combination. Mark, fellow citi zens, hoer these Federal legislators attempt to de. . ceive you whe'n they contemplate a fraud upon the Ipeople, The bill which contained the charter of the Bank of the United States, was originally en titled, " an act to repeal the State taxes and pro vide for a continuation of the public improve ments." The one under consideration was a bill to incorporate the Pennsylvania Canal and Railroad i company, and provide a sinking feed for the pay- mead of Mc &etc debt." 'Mark the deception; the one was to repeal the State taxes the other to provide a Birthing fund,but , both in reality calculated to rob the people and entail perpetual taxation on them. Now fellow citizens are you not curious to know what 'ibis measure for providing a sinking fund to pay the State debt was. We will tell you. It was an act' to take from you the control of your whole line of public improvements from Philadelphia to Pitts burgh, including the Columbia and Portage rail ways, and to place them under the control of a company for the miserable pittance of between seven and eight millioni of dollars at most. That is the whole line was to be valved at twenty mil lions of dollars, and form a stock to that amount in shares of one hundred dollars each, ten millions of which were to be sold to individuals and paid for in State stocks w hich, were then worth not more than seventy dollars in the hundred. At this rate the cost to the individual stockholders of the one half, would hot have exceeded seven millions of dollars. By the provisions of the bill the indi vidual stockholders were to receive fine per cent on the amount of their stock betore the State re ceive any dhiaciiil whatever. After payment of the expenses and five per cent to , the indi,'idual stockholders, then the State was to come in for her dividend on the stock retained, but it was provided that in no event could she receive more than five per cent. If the profits-of . the company should 1 I ever exceed five per cent on the whole capital, then the surplus was to go to the-individual stockhold• ers, and this its anthors had the impudence to call lan act providing a sinking fund for the payment of the State debt. ; But the bill contained still more extraordinary) ' provisions, which we cannot advert to in detail, I ouch as conferring on the company power to con-' Istruct lateral railroads and canals, and also author ity to become transpfrfers and to establish lines' of steamboats on the Ohio river. Now how did lit happen that this bill was de:eated 1 It passed the Senate and was sent to the House of Represen tatives, on the 10th of march. On the 13ttisMarch s being Saturday, and the day of final adjournment being fixed for Tuesday the 10th', the House pro ceeded to the consideration of the billin the after- noon, and the Federal members attempted to force it through the House without debate or a-1 mendment under the previous question, which they I were only prevented from the energy and determi• 1 nation of the minority, who finding that the ma jority were determined to perpetrate an act, which would rob the people of their property and inflict an irreparable injury upon the commotiss - ealth,res tored to all the rights and privileges which the rules of the House afforded them, and thereby pre vented final action until the hour of adjournment arrived. .On Monday other business intervened, and the bill could not be taken up out of order ' without two-thirds agreeing, and on Tuesday the Legislature adjourned. ..Thus was the consuma tion of this outrage upon the interests of the peo. I ple, prevented, -and for which the Democratic ' •members were denounced as rioters and black, , gourds by a leading Federal paper of this place.! 1 . This very year we feel assured that the pub.] ' lie works will net a . million of dollars, and what' their value may twenty-five years hence, with the increasing population and resources of the coon try, no man can now tell. To this measure then the federalists are Pled - ge• on the record, and if they again °lain a majority in the Legislature; and a pliant Governor of kindred feeling - in the person of Gen. Irvin, we have a right to anticipate its consummation next seas*. • In opposition to this measure, Gov. Shunk has recommended that the net tolls of the public works, together with the present taxes on real and. personal estate, be pledged to the payment of the interest on the public debt, and to the creation of ti sinking fund for the . payment of a portion of the principal, and has ahosvn in the most satisfactoryl manner that the debt can be so far diminishedwith-1 in a reasonable time, as to allow of a material re-1 dtiction of the present taxes.

We wish that it may be read by every freeman of Pennsylvania, beingeonvinced that all, after reading it, would be satified that he has done the State good service. Mr. Dartie, will' not Answer.; Our readers will remember that a correspondent who signed himself "Morgan," addressed a series of interrogatories to Mr. Gamuts Datum, the Federal candidate for Senator, in relation to the sale of certain real estate to the Masonic Lodge of this city, a few years since. The questions avere couched in respectful language, and were by no means impertinent. Mr. Darsie is a candidate be fore the people for an important office, and the 'voters of this county have the right to to inquire into his conduct. But as that gentleman has al. ways been more celebrated for low cunning and double dealing, than frankness, manliness, and all those noble traits of Character which always con stitute an honorable titan; we 'did not look for a response to our corresppndent. As to the history of Mr. Daisies transactions with the Lodge—or the particular facts in relation to the matter—we, of course, are entirely ignorant ; and we leave the discussion to our correspondent "Morgan," end other gentlemen of honor and ve racity, who are familiar with the facts. The following communication of Mr.Juirs M'. Oita. has been on hand for a few days, but crowd ed out by a press of other matter. It will be seen that he volunteers to answer for Darsie, but with what success we leave those to judge who are acquainted with the facts.. Mr. Darsie should an 51ACI for himself—the questions were addressed to !him personally—he is before the public, and 'Mr. MOili is a private citizen, whose name bas never been alluded to in connection with the matter. But it is evidently the purpose of Mr. Darsie to evade the responsibility of a hank and honorable reply to our correspondent, and throw all the odium that may attach to his coniluct, open the shoulders of another person. Such a count is mean and de !testable! sayriin your paper of July 2 9 a commenication signed 'iMorgan," which tire to Mr. Huai*, and More especially to myself, who was the active agent through the,whole trans action referred to, requires some notice at my bends. Taking it for granted that you are not disposed to give currency and publicity to wanton and unjust iruptirstions against - either Mr. Darsie or myself, 1 ask you to give the following state. ment of facts a place in your journal. In the year 1827 or '2B, Air. Parsie and myself. being then partnem In business, were snout to erect a building on the corner of Smithficl.: and 3.3 .13, when we made an arrangement to finish the thud story for a Masonic Hall, upon the following con ditions, for which we were to receive twenty-tire hundred dollars, which was to be rated by one hundred shares of rock, each share to be t.venty five dollars, and the Lodge occupying the Hall were to pay a rent sufficient to pay the stoekhold ers six per cent. Lodge No. 45 took one thousand dollars of this stock, an& a portion of the balance was held by ourselves; the Lodge not paying any rent for a number of years mast of the individual stockholders became dissatisfied, and urged us to purchase their stock, which we did to' more than one half the amount at par value. We were in. duced to do so with the view of obtaining a cOntrol ling interest 'to enforce the payment of rein ac cording to agreement. Lodge No. 113, No. 183, and the Chapter in the mean time Were dissolved or were mingled in . No 45i which was the only one left to which we!could look for the interest on our stock. I made several propositions to Lodge No. 45. flint if they wolud pay up the interest clue, and give an assurance of pOyment for the !Lune, we wohld make a crinvey once of the title. To these nn attentiori was paid. Finding all our efforts unavailing and something like sixteen years interest due us upon about $l4OO, we employed Iblessrs. Metcalf& Loomis, in the fall of 1844, to bring afinit of ejectment. Pending the proceeding, the great fire of 1845 took place, which destroyed the building. At the time of the fire there was due us from Lodge No 45 4 an amount much 'exceeding the whole amount Of her instalment We never had any agreethent with Lodge No 45, other than as a stockholder. It has been charged that we received pecuniary aid from the masons after c ola. first fire, this is en= tirely and grossly false, nor had the above agree ment any relation thereto, as it took place some. thing like four years after that event, when 've had recovered entirely lrom its effects Any person leeting an interest in the subject, by calling on me, will be furnished with all the in formation in my possession. cO.; The Boston Post says, " the only thing that Old Rough and Ready ever retreated from, was a Whig nomination for office." The courage of Gen. Taylor has never been questioned. In the late war, be sustained a siege of i soine weeks, surrounded by an overwhelming force of-Indians, and finally drove them from the field. He was the most efficient commander in the Florida War; and at the head of only 500 Ameri cans defied Santa Anna, with 20,000 men.

April 27, 1847. Dear never but once used your medicines; it was as follows: I was at our country seat, and retired to bed about eleveq o'clock, in good health, and fell asleep, but was soon awak ened by extreme pain in one hand and anti. I suc ceeded in keeping my bed till about fotti orslock. When I arose I found my hand badly swollen, or in a h:gh state of inflammation.. A small black spot on the back of niy hand, about.the size of a five cent piece. It soon rotted and came opt to the•bone. When I arose the pain was very severe, running into my head and over the whole system. By twelve o'. clock my head and face were' badly swollen. The glands of my throat swelled very much, and by this lime every tooth in my head was more or less loose; two thirds of the skin of my mouth and lips peeled off;- my sight quite effected; no physician neat._ I solicit...yl my friends to take me home, (fifteen mires) but they were fearful I could not stand it, when T. F. Davenport, who kept the public house, requested me to go to his house.. Chills, faintness and sicknes was constantly increasing upon me; I had become almost insensible. As 1 reached his house, his moth er, alarmed at my appearance, met me at the stove with a spoonful of JAYNE'S ALTERATIVE, end repeated the dose two or three times in the course ofan hour, in which time the faintness, sickness and chills bad principally.left—a free perspiration was on the surface end the inflammation vastly abating. The third day . I was able to ride home. The Rev. Dr. Plymptun imformed me the attack was one of the severest rind of Malignant Ermpelae, nhd - that the use of your Arzraivrivi was the means of saving my life. Respectfully yours, &c. • JOSEPH 0.
