One of the iuti.iers of tha disorganizes, on Monday last, while attempting to get up n meeting in Hemlock, to aid M'Mahans election, stated that a letter had been receiv ed from J. S. Ingram, urging the bringing out of a third candidate, as Mr. Htfadley could not be supported in Schuylkill county. Upon learning this fact, wo immediately wrote to Mr. Ingram as to the truth -of the statement. After a part of our impression was off wo received the following answer, which nails the falsehood to the counter. The stripling who reported tho falsehood must now feel 6vcn more streaked than lie did, when every democrat in Hemlock re fused to join him in his opposition to Mj. Hoadlev. J'oor bov, wo wonder if your mother ever whipped you for telling a lie.if she has not,she 6hould now put it on smartly- Pottsvili.e, Sept. 24, 1810. Sear Sir I am just apprized by your let ter that a report is in circulation in your couu ty stating that I have written a Utter " de claring that Maj.Ileadley cannot receive tho democratic vote of Schul'kill.and urging them to get up some oilier candidate for Senator." I takn the earliest opportunity to pronounce the whole story a malicious lie. I have not written any letter to Columbia county since the nomination of Maj. deadly; and ever since then have used every honorable mean?, by word and pen, to promote his e ledum. The next session of the Legislature is too important to suffer a sacrifice of any de mocrntio candidate on account of personal predilections; and at any rate, I shall always support " the ticket, mo wnuie ucuei, aim nothing but the ticket." Maj. Ileadloy will receive is largo a voto as cither out candidate for Congress or As sembly, and you may rely on his majority being at least 800 if not 1000 in this county- I send you this, with my pprmission to use it a you may deem proper, a.ul with tho assnranco that no democrat ever circu lated the falsehood. JOHN S. INGRAM. HE ASSKSSHD. The election law requires that all per sons shall be assessed at least TUN DAYS before the election to entitle them to a voto, and it also makes it the duty of Assessors to put up at the place of holding tho elec tion on the first of August each year, a list of all persons who have been assefsed. Let every man examine this list, and if his name is not upon it, apply to the Assessor immediately and have his name entered, or hid negligence may deprive him of his vote. Do not forget to have your name cnlcrod on tho list al least ten days before. tho dec-tion. In our last wc adverted to an attempt be ing made by a few individuals in the lower part of the county, to get up an opposition to the regular nominated candidate for Sen ator. From the information then in our possession, wo were led to believe that a few disorganizes would have been able to have mado somo sho'.v of opposition, but wo have sinco loarned, that they cannot drnm up any thing more than a corporal's scouting party, composed, of some three or four boys of Danville. These boys, after having ransacked several townships for mate rials to raise meetings, ¬succecding have shrunk back into their former insigniftcence which wo fancy will be the last we shall hear of them until aftei the election. Boys should tarry at Jerico, until their boards are grown, before they handle edged tools. Wo have received the proceedings of a meeting held some where in Liberty town ship last Monday, recommending Jamc M' Mahan as a candidalo for Senator, with a request for their publication in our paper. We cannot comply, as tho proceedings are evidently nothing moro than the overflowing of the gall on the stomachs of a fow whif fets in Danville. Tho meeting could not possibly have been Democratic, as . we do not see tho name of a single Bilmcyer at tached to the proceedings. No belter test is wanting.. The Notice, which wo publish below, romo to us in a slip from tho oflkc of the Danville Intelligencer, and, as therein re quested, we give it to our readers for what it is worth. With the signers wo are per sonally unacquainted, as we assurdly nre with their motives. We shall therfore not im pugn the truth of their assertions; but we must bo permitted to say, that it looks rath er singular, that three men, who havo here tofuro taken but little part in politics, should all at once, take upon themselves tho re sponsibility of bringing before the public a candidate for the Senate, against the regu lar nominated candidate of the parly, with' out consulting any person upon the subject TO THE PUBLIC, we, tno undersigned, in order to disa buse the public mind, and do justice to cur tain individuals accused n! attempting to excite a division in the Democratic party in rclerenco to the benator, tako this method of informing all inlcrcsted, that we arc the authors of the announcement, and that we acted without consulting Petrikin or Best, and that we btought out James M'Mahan because wo wcro dissatisfied with tho nom iiiatinn, and honestly believed that three- fourths of the Democratic party were dts s.ilUfied, and our opinion has been only strengthened by lurtlier observation Wo ask Mr. Webb to do us the justice to publish this in his paper. JOHN CLARK, JOHN DALE. JOSEPH KERR. Liberty Township. Sept. 22, 1810. We received a few days since the first number of a now paper, published in Dan ville, by Look, v: Co. and upon looking at its title, " Danville Democrat," we rejoiced that wo were to havo more help in tho good old causo of JeiTersonbniein; but how sad ly disappointed wore we, upon reading its contents. They were any thing but demo cralic in fact, whigism to tho back bono and Harrisonism from head to toe. Wo cannot, therefore, a3 politicians, wish them success, as we hate sailing under false col ors, but as industrious, enterprising men, o our profession, ive wish them God speed. f After reading the above paper, our eyes rested with pleasure on the pages of tho Sunbury American and Shamokin Gazette a new paper, just started at Sunbury, North umbcrland comity. This paper is not on ly " American" by namo, but in principle pie to wit Democratic, and Btistains Van Burcn and Johnson and our own beloved Governor David R. Porter. We can course, not only wish llie publishers as brother typocs, but as politicians, success in their business. Although wo can say to them, as well as to our new neighbor in Danville, that they havo entered into a field that is already stocked beyond the ability o the soil to maintain, and unless better pat ronised than tho oilier papers of the two counties, will always remain one of " Pha roah'a lean kind." ii Why" said a young lady to her father, " do these biawling whigs call tho demo crilic parly, loco-focos ?" " My dear, you know, the whigs assume a new namo every two or three years, and by giving the demo cratic patty a hew namo they hopo to rob them of their true one, and thus carry their point, ell other names having failed them A DEFINITION. " Masna" asked a ddtkee, " Wat is a diabolical ?"' " Why, Peter, when a great scoundrel, or gambler, goes from ono state to another under a fictitious name, circulating lies and false documents to gull and deceive the peo ple that is diabolical." " Wy, don, massa, that Buck-eye Black smith is a Diabolical I" " Boys" said said ah old man to his sons, " why do you mako so much noise in the streets ? " Because, father, wt are determined to bo noticed, and this isthe only way to effect our object." " But who put this into your heads ?" " Uncle Davy, and he knows how tho thing is done to a shaving." EsssESHjEasa The Keystone in speaking of the general Administration, says, "The federal whig party cry out "change 1" "change 1" "Van Buren is ruining the country !" Now 5iow stands the facts. Since the democratic administration of General Jackson and Mr. Van Burcn came into power, the saving, to the people, by the reduction of taxes on tea and coffee alono amounts to more than 328,000,000 ! Tho reduction of taxes on articles con sumed daily by the people, amount to more than 120 millions 1 The government has acquired near a hun dred millions of acres of land by extinguish ing (by purchase) the Indian title, Our commerce has been extended, and there is not a port in tho civilized or barba riaii world, visited by tho Europeans, at which our ships do not trade. The conse quencp of which is the increase of trade,and a demand for articles manufactured and pro duced by our farmers and mechanics. I ho crops throughout the land have proved plentiful, instead of being cut off with pestilence and other evils invited and prayed for by the great federal leaders, The prices for produce and labor are good, and there exists not a reason why any should complain, which can bo traced to the effects of the manner in which Mr. Van Burcn administers the laws of thu coun try. Why then do the federalists desire a change ? Because with Mr. Van Buren they havo no influence, neither can they find a place in his administration to rest their weary feet, and dip deep into tho pockets of the people for a share of the money of which their peerless friend, Swartwout, so largely partook. With an imbecile old man like Harrison for President, they would have gloiious times. Tho North-bond hero has promised not to veto a bill passed by Congress. Then would Mr. Clay got up a bill giving eight or ten millions to a Mayavillo road, Mr. Webster one to build a fort in Massachu setts, John Bell to make a road through Tcnnesseo,and a host of others would unite and iob the Treasury of millions under the guise of Internal Improvements. Presi dent Harrison would veto ndno of them. 0, no, this federal tool would let his party reward themselves. But Mr. Van Burcn is the person who must first bo removed be fore these darling projects can o carried into execution. The change is desired by as hungry set of leaches as over fastened themselves upon a public treasury, and for no other purpose than to fill their pockets from tho money drawn from the people in the shape of tax es. No good reason has ever been given why the people should desert Mr. Van Bu ren and vote for Gen. Harrison. Until sufficient reasons can be given why a change should take placo, the great body of the people will prefer-a President who has advanced their interests, and administered thu laws in a manner honorable to this great nation and creditable to himself and those who support him. Lightning in Harness. We have re ceived the first number of a small paper cal led the Maguet, It is published by Thom as Davenport, and is designed to diffuse in formation in regard to electro-magnetism. Mr. Davenport, it seems, has got his electro-magnetic machine so far improved, that it will drive a printing press. Tho sheet beforo us, wo are'to)d,is printed by electrical power. Thero appears to bo rather a defi ciency in impression but still, it is some thing for Mr. Davenport to say, that he prints his newspapers by lightning ! Journal of Commerce' THE BUCKEYE STATE, Is rallying her forces in right good ear nest, says the State Capitol Gazette. Her people aro aroused, and arc marching for ward to tho approaching conflict, with a zeal and cnthusinsrh which docs honor to her truo-hcarcd and unwavering democracy. Somo of tho largest political gatherings that havo ever been hold in tho United States, have recently taken placo in Ohio, at all of which such expressions of the feelings and sentiments of the people havo been given, as to insuro a thrico-clorious triumph for the democratic patty in that state, and strike terror and dismav into tho moncrcl ranks of federalism. Tho " hard cider" aspirant for the Presidency, is politically dead in 0- hto. A man who dare, not own his princi ples openly and above board, as an honest candidate ought to do when called upou by tho people, is unworthy tho confidence of the democracy of tho Buckeye state. lie has but a short time longer, however, to skulk behind a " committee of three," be fore ho will find to his great mortification, that even in politics " honesty is the best policy." Ohio is safe and her safety con slsts in tho Intelligence of her people. Her majority for Van Buren and Johnson, may safely be set down at 10,000 ! The Ohio papers are filled with anima ted descriptions of a number of democratic conventions which have recently taken place in that state, which toll, in language not to be misunderstood, that her people aro up and duiug. At Mount Vernon, a " Demo cralic Young Men's Convention" was held on the tho 19th ult., at which llie astonish ing number of 20,000 persons were present all enthusiastic in tho good cause. At Mansfield, on the 21th ult., there was a turn-out of 10,000 democrats. At Xenia a meeting was held on llie 2 1st, which con sisled of between five and six thousand ner- sons; and at Dayton, on the 22d, tho as scmblcd multitude, composed of the hard fisted democracy, amounted to upwards o 10,000 1 Are not these things tho harbin ger of a glorious victory in October ?
