We will send the paper to ten thousand such men as Mr. P* on the same ternm. Come on, gentlemen-—don't be modest, about the matter 1 » FALSEHOOD AND IMPUDENCE.” • This is the startling head to an article in the ; Gazette of Friday, in reply to our observation of the day previous, that “tho Gazette has been relucitantly forced to admit that all our positions in relation to the free ticket business are correct” Our tissertion is sustained by fads, obvious to the piercoption of an intellect oven more obtuse and {perverted than that which controls the edi torial!columns of the Gazette. Let mj make a brief statement of our position, and the •public can easily discover where is . the impudent lie ! which is an equally plain, though i not Quito so classical an expression n 3 that ;head of this article. copying from its compeer in all I that Is ungencrons, unmanly, and unjust, the I American of this city,) asserted that all the De- 1 legates from this county to the Reading Conven- I tioo, with the exception of a single individual, J hwd gone to that Convention by means of tickets famished them by some person; and broadly in- 1 limiting that these tickets were issued by the I Canal Commissioners. We denied the truth of I this statement most positively; and asserted that j the editor of that paper could not furnish a sin- I gle fact to corroborate this statement. r This was the first and maiu position, which .wc took. The discussion of this matter lias been continued for some days past,—yet not a single fact has been produced, going to point to eiror in our. state ment, or to show that we had not uttered the truth. Therefore, according to all the rules of | argument that we have become acquainted i with, our first position was admitted. Our seoond position was based upon tho vol unteer evidence of Tiiomas Jefferson Biouam, Esquiro, which went to prove, (if his entire state ment was true,) that several members of the Leg had received free tickets to pass over tho public works: that he knew this to be the case; because a friend had procured one for him, which secured his passage from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh, free of all charge for tolls. The Gazette and its backers had pronounced tho is suing of these free tickets to bo without tho shadow of warrant by law; and had charged the Democratic Canal Commissioners with “swind- ling” the State. The position we took, in view this part of the case was (and we think it an ine vitable ono) — That J. T. Bhutan, a member of the Legislature, and therefore as fully sworn to ob serves the Constitution out the Canal Commissioners, seas equally guilty with them of sustaining a scheme by which to swindle the State. ’Phia position wc sustained by arguments that have been frequently]referred to, no word of de ment hanmppeared—nothing been--profln«Kt-j in the slightest degreo to weaken our position. ■There are several minor propositions, origina- I ting in these two; but os neither of the main positions have been denied, we take it for granted, by all the rules of Logic; that they must be ad mitted also. The editor of tbo Gazette so frequently deliv ers himself of peculiar ideas, that we have more than ouco taken tho occasion to remark that we could not tell in which category to placo him,— that vS knave ox fool. In the article to which wo ore now replying, there is an exhibition of ver dency so great that we might safely place him in the latter class. But to-morrow may produce some evidence equally ns strong of the other character. He terms our failure to admit our knowledge that free tickets had been granted under every administration, a “most unblushing disregard of truth and fairness.” Now there must first be produced any reason whatever why WU should have made such nn admission, when proving that the Gazette bod unqualifiedly übd, and that T. J. Bhutan bad aided in swindling the State, before the mind of any man of the most common intelligence can be brought to agree with the Gazette. Nano can do this un less it be those who swallow all it gives forth, in (he same manner they once did their mother’s milk. Whenever an admission of the truth is re quired of us, we shall prove ourselves to bo not behind tho pious? editor. But we are obliged to pay some attention to the distinguished volun teer witness of tho Gazette, and must therefore close this article. G, C. & C, B. K.

But each are among the tricks of all “ swind lers.” When arrested, and before they have any idea of the testimony to be, brought against them, they are capable of playing the saint jto perfection; but when the evidences of I guilt are produced, (it may be upon their i.own persons,) they then become totally dumb ia3 we expect the distinguished gentleman [ himself soon to :. become on this subject.— The greatest source of wonder to many may i be, that he had not sense enough to know, that, when he hod confessed to the receipt and appro priation :f goods “swindled” from the public, his testimony would have but little weight with all honorable men. : , But, unfortunately for him as a Grand Juror I of the State, he has pro-convicted himself; and I this ebullition of hypocritical regard for duty, > does not tally very well with his real duty, ac cording to thoso systems of ethics which are held most valuable. Ho knows this, as well as we con tell him.

ESP Tho Washington Telegraph, in alluding to tho address of the distinguished President of tho Georgetown College, Dr. Rider, at tho com mencement, on Thursday lost, says: " Dr. Rider surpassed even himself. His glowing eulogy on the Union—his scathing de nunciations of those who would weaken its bonds or sever its tics—colled fforth a responsive burst of applause from all who were within the sound of his voice. If Dr. Rider were a polltl oan, this speech, our informant says, would ele vate him far above the many who are called great, in the estimation of those who ore satisfi ed with the Union os it is." Judge Greene C. Bronson, In n reply to an invitation to bo present at the Tammany cel ebration of New York, wrote—“ When the sev eral states shall learn to mind thoir own busi ness, without meddling with the affairs of oth ers, and shall be faithful to the constitution as It is, without rejecting any part of it, the Union will stand too strong for its enemies, without and within. And when the democracy shall bnild pgain on its old foundation, without . construct ing new platforms to catoh the factions of the day, it will regain its ascendancy in this state and in the nation." , Swedish Expedition to Cieouhhavioate the Globe. —A letter from Stockholm, of tho 24th tilt, states that the Swedish Government has de cided upon sending the corvette Eugenie on a voyage of circumnavigation, and invited the ,Royol Academy of Solences of Stockholm to 'name a scientific committee to aocompany the expedition.
