winch Kitner and Ins Uomnussioncrs havo
been exercising, for weeks . past, on bthe :
branches of the public worksj lias beer
commenced on the North Branch. Shouli
Ritncr bo elected, not a Porter man will
hereafter be employed upon the public
works in any capacity; Farmers, laborer

TO THE PUBLIC.
On Tuesday, the 25th inst. Jame. Tag:
gart, Supervisor on the North BrarJch Can
al, called at the Lock House at Ldck No. Oj
above Danville, which has beeh attended by
the undersigned for seven years past. On
entering the house, he called for pen and
ink, which were placed before him. After
makirig ottt two or three short instruments
of writing, ho requested me to step out of
the house with him. as he wished to talk
with me. On accompaning him out, he in
formed me that he understood that I was in
favor of tho election of David R. Porter for
Governor. I told him that he was correct
ly informed on that subject. Hojthen said
that it became his ilntv to flianiinrir m fmm
" J ' ..........u I.VUI
the service of the state as a Lock Keeper.
He said that when he had legit to Harris
burg, the Governor and the Board of Canal
Commissioners had informed him that they
understood sbmb of the Agents on the North
Branch canal were for Porter, he said he
considered such menmere hirelings said
he had wherewith to"pay such, and power
to discharge them and then handed me
the written notice of my discharge, which
ho had just made out. In the couise of con
versation he said ho knew it would be a se
rious inconvenience and loss to mc thus to
be compelled, to relinquish business and
move out of the houso with my family upon
so short a notice, at this season of tho year
said that they had no fault to find with
me except politically, and advised me that
if I would pledge mysslf to vote for Rilner,
I could remain. On refusing to agree to
1.1,-. ,..,, i.w.j.p.Ldj,,, priiscnlibrEman
on the canal in this vicinity, to takp charro
of Lock No. 0, and then p'roceeded up ths
canal to discharge all who would not submit
to the terms upon which men ate now em
ployed on all the state works. At Lock No.
5, the Supervisor informed the keeper there
that he would rather lose three months wa
ges himself than make the requisition and
discharges ho is required to do ; to another
he added, the Canal Commissioners will be
along here with me, on the line, this week
and we are determined to find out who
aro for Ritnerj and who are not.
