Wc have since been con firmed in this belief, by reading reports of -tho Directors of the Poor House of Bucks' county for the yeard 1835, 1830, and 1837, '. furnished 113 by a friend.. It is now about 20 years since tho first establishment of a poor house in that county. They have a farm of 3 or 400 acres, upon which has "been erected buildings. Notwithstanding tho original cost of the property has been paid; yet the yearly expenses of tho estab hshmcnt are continually increasing, as ap pears from the following statements which wc gather from the reports before us For the vcar 1835, it cost the county to sustain the poor house establishment, indc- pendent of the income from the farm, about 01000. In 1830, 5500 In 1637, 0000 averaging about per year for every pauper lemainining in tho poor houso on the first day of January, of each year, inde 'dependent of the interest upon the original cost of the farm and buildings, Wiion we tako into consideration tho fact, that in the winter season, thc number of pauper in the Jiouse is much greater than in the summer, tho actual average cost will be increased ito mora than fi.Sft. which is mnrn. t'innnn average cost of tho paupers of Columbia County under the present arrangement. 1 hero are items of expenses 111 the poor house accounts of Bucks County which .liclp to swell up tho enormous expenses of tho cstablishmct. and to which wo should bo aliko subject. Wo refer to tho salaries of thc officers ol the institution, and the cx pense of transporting paupirs to thc poor liouse. Tho average salary paid to officors and their assistants, is about 1000 dollars, besides about (00 dollars paid to constables aud justices fur their services in carrying jiaupers from the different townships to tho institution, as no pauper is received unless brought by a constable, upon the order of a jnsttnn of the jipace; making tho round sum of nearly $3300 for salaries and fees which Is alnios entirely disponscd with un dcr tho rprfisoiil flyslcrrl. 1i!.m like iho other oxpenscs of the institution) is equally divided among the taxnblcs of the connty; a township having no pauper pays an equnl ptoporlion according to her assessment, as the ono having twenty. Prom other coun ties, where Poor Houses arc established, we hear statements which show that they ate more expensive than tho present mode, but not having official reports, wo cannot give certain statements from any other coun ty than tho above. But this is sufficient to show the impolicy of our county cnteiing into an experiment which, to say the least, will not decrease, if it does not increase, their poor tax. Can it be that we arc bet tor managers than tho pcoplo of Ducks county, or that we shall have officers who will be moro economical than theirs? They have had the experience of twenty years, and yol their expenses .increase every year. We arc to enter into it at a time when tho county is already burthencd with taxes in consequences of building bridges, and other expenses, and when, by so doing, we neat ly double them, fur years to come, and fas ten upon the county a debt that will remain a mortgage upon every man's farm, the in terest of which must be paid annually. The poor arc now sustained with but a small tax in most of the townships; so small tliat it is hardly felt, but we venture to say, that, should the poor house law go into op eration, their tax would be nearly threblcd. Arc the people prepared fur this ? If not, let every man attend the polls and cast hi vole acainst the law. Every exertion will bo used by tho people of Danville to pro cure its acceptance. It is for their interest, and all who know them know that when that is at stauc, no nams or expense ate snared. AVc arain rencat. let no man re- fusc lQ q Jw wo doM nQl volc a. gainst it, adds to the strength of its advo cates. TICKETS against the acceptance of the POOR HOUSE LAW, will next week, be prepared, antf may be had upon applica tion to this office. Valentine Best is riding the county daily electioneering for himself Protlionolary. We understand that he spends most of his time in the Fishing Crock townships.

He then thought ho was " cock of tho walk," and would crow at the sight of a removal man, and snap his fingers in defiance; but the tune is changed, nnd he finds it necessary to practice his old gamo of promi8ing 0flce. nc has already several Judges and Sheriffs on the carpet, and as manv candidates for the Legislature1 lie can not, however, succeed he will be literally used up, and will have " to wait until 18-iO" It is enough for him to do tho duties ol- the post oniuC) the pcopIe do not want to confer too many offices on one man, The law regulating elections, requires, tliat every voter shall bo assessed at least ten days before the Election, and his name cnlcrC(t u the Iist of volers to be rclurn.
