bets kgally returned to the Secretary of
State? The ground of dispute now, is not
who received the actual majority in the
Criunty,; but who were returned in the
'winner Prescribed by law. We will state
ths plain facts of the case, as there appears
to ,be much misrepresentation on the sub
je4t, and an attempt made to $s the odi
um of the whole transaction on the Whig
p.rty, when actually the grasping and
hi h•handed attempt of Charles J. Inger-
Ho I to secure his return to Congress,
th ugh in a minority, was the• sole cause
w ,ich has led our opponents to the mini
m salon of treason.
IPhiladelphia County has two Conres
airli a
ne! in one Representative district. e The
fitst Congressional District elected Mr.
l' ynter, (V. B.) and came into the third
Congressional district, (contested by
Messrs. Naylor and Ingersoll.) with 'a de.,
cided majority for the Van Buren County
Ticket. The result in the NorQiern Lib
erties and other parts of the thiri district,
_glive Mr. Naylor a majority overrlar. In
gi3rsoll, but did not bring up tho Ice way
• list by the Whigs in the first district on
their County Ticket, and there is no rea
stet to doubt the fact, that if all the tally
to of the different Wards had been hand
over to the 'return judges,, the Van Bu
r n 'County Members would all, or most of
em have been elected. Mr. Ingersoll,
juncture, knowing that the majori.
t of the Wards of the Northern Liberttes
( hird district,) would give Mr. Naylor a
t 1
Majority beyond his, .at the, Kensington
find unincorporated Northern Liberty
oils, resolved no what was, at the first
lance, intended to be a master-stroke of
olitical finesse. - - The two Van• Buren
ards of the Northern Liberties were to
‘ , mislay, or make away with their tally
ists—this was done, and Mr. Ingersoll
I ,
mtnediately. advanced the hitherto un•
sown doctrine, that for the dereliction of
two Wards the whole of the Northern Lib•
brig vote should be thrown out. On the
.Mame principle, if the epection was illegally
eld is oneolistritt.iniSchuylkill County,
the vote of the whole County must be re
lacted. Now the motives for this course
of conduct will be evident by a little ex
planation- The whole Whig majority in
the Northern Liberties was between II
Id 1200, and in the only two wards w
here the Loco s had an ascendency_ there
kwas a Van Buren majority of 3 or 400.
Now the rejection of these two wards a•
' lone, would not alter the general result of
the election, tor still the Whigs would have
.1 7 or 800 majority in all the Liberties; but
Ito secure Mr. Ingersoli's election to Con.
jgress it . was necessary to quash the whole
`Liberty vote, which would.also still secure
the return of the loco county ticket, and
therefore he advanced his novel proposi-
Ition, and this course would ha4tesured his
election, inasmuch as the other districts
of the County gave a Van Buren majority.
lln no other Wards but these two could
i his schemes be carried into Orect,for the
.1 Whig Inspectors were guarded in all the
I others, and no other district gave a whig
1 majority which it was necessary to kill.
The difficulty then arises on the rejection
i of the two wards only, or all the wards
1 All the wards being thrown aside, give Mr.
1 ingersoll and the loco county members
.1 the return; the two wards only being re
jected, give it to the Whig county mein
- . hers and Mr. Naylor-
Pending these transactions, it became
. necessary by law on Friday subsequent to
• the day of election, that the return Judges
should make their returns, and send them
on sealed, to the Secretary of State. The
Judges accordingly met, when the Loco
focoe were for throwing out the whole of
. the Northers Liberty vote, and the seven
Whir, for rejecting only the two wards
l where the talley-lists were lost. The ma
tiprity therefore decided that the whole
skould be excluded, and gave the certifi•
1 cafe of election to Mr:lngersoll. The

County Monkey Address.—We refer our res.
dere with . gratification to the following address.
It is jest such a document u we should have . ex
pected, and the m wt 4stidious, can only comment
oo it in terms of praise. Calming investigation,
but at the same time determined to concede no
iota of their rights; throwing themselves on'their
country for security, and on the intelligenas.o

can read it without admiring the firmness, can•
dor, and hightoned purity of its aentimeMs.
To the People of Pennsyl
vania.
Fetcow Crrizzars:—Because of the v4n7 great
misrepresentation which has' been median rel..
tion to the contested election in the County of
Philadelphia, the undersigned, duly elected and
returned members of the State Legislature from _
the said county, deem it a duty which they owe o
to themselves and their fellow citizens to disabuse
the public ear in relation to this sublict, and to.
assert in the most phblic manner the.. rights, of
which, et the wills it was slitampted to deprive
them by freed, and ,at, the Held of Government,
by force. Deliberate and extensive frauds were
devised and practised by our opponents in certain
parts of the County of Philadelphia at the recent
election, the knowledge of which determined us
to present ourselves and our CROSS to your ahem
bled Representatives—that in conformity to the
law of the State we or our opponents should
be declared /the legal represeltatives froollie
County of Philadelphia. We court investigation
and inquiry into thil subject by tbe only compe
tent tribunal. eConimittee of the House ; and no
threats of violence eau compel our submission to
any other power, selfconstituteal by previous
arrangement or accidentally assembled at the
seat of Government for intimidation or violence.
We owe this not to ourselves, but to our constit
uents, whose interests at all hazards we will
endeavor faithfully to protect ; and are now, as
we ever have been, ready to abide the unbia ssed
decision of a committee of the House appointed
to investigate this *object ; and, if necessary, to
return to our constituents and submit ourselves
and our conduct to their judgment. Regularly
returned members from the county of Philadel
phia, we have been regarded by our opponents as
usurpers of their rights, and the public infoim.
ed that, without the shadow of authority, we are
claiming seats to Which we are tie entitled.
This we are prepared to show is utterly false;
and if permitted. unawed by threats and firm,
We confidently believe that we can prove to the
entire satisfaction of cur fellow-eitizens, that we
have been elected to the seats we now bold by a
majority of legal Yaw over our opponents.

number. His business was probably urgent, as
he has embarked on short notice. The collector
Of this port, who spent last evening with him; had
no intimation of his intention, and was not-aware
of it until after the. Liverpool tad departed, Con
jecture is already busy epon the circumstance.
Our own opinion however, decidedly 'is, that the
sisal of Mr. Price to' Europe is connected with
the affairs of his friend Mr. Swartwout.
In the above article, Cell. Stone, with his usual
charity, has placed the most lenient constructions,
on a very suspicious neodement : we hope ire
have our share of that itudity of mercy, which
is twice blessed," but we nrgue quite widely from
the Commercial. To ;isy the least, it was very
injudicious, in Mr. Pricd, to throw up his impor.
tent situation without previous notice. Sines the
great fire in N. Y. thd extended bonds of its
Merchants. have heen in his bands, subject to
collection ; y have been collected, and the
business is of So complicated a nature, that
deprived of his assistande, all must resolve itself
into confusion. That 'he should leave without
adjusting his Recounts is decidedly wrong; and .
although we have heretofore entertained a very.
high opinion of the gentleman's character, stilt
we are constrained to say, that the obloquy of the
deed can never be . calmed. From the ey.
Whig we extract the farming, which Mr. Barr
states was-derived (roman eye witness.
