there is an account of extraordinary and
"Bingular flight of carrier pigeons, from Bir

About three hundred pigeons, belonging to
merchants and other parties at Antwerp,
were despatched simultaneously at Hands
worth, at G o'clock, on the 12ili ult. The
whole uock reached Antwerp tho samR
'morning, the first pigeon having lenched
there at half past 9 o'clock following in ra

at half past 10. Estimating the distance

the dineience in time between w two

DANIEL SNYDER'S VOTES.
Under litis caption, John G. Muntgnme
y, publishes in l:e lust paper of the Mae.
rtne, a loiig lisror- Wliur lie calls" Daniel
Snyder's votes in ihe Legislature, and .
batch of more jeeuilical, malicious, false
misrepresentations wre never given to the
puonc. i ne intimation, too, mat those
votca were given upon the -nain question,
wholly false and gratuitous.
Daniel Snyder, unlike John G. Monl
gomery, aas always oeen a tiniiorin, con
distent, decided democrat. None of your
lime serving, changing policy men, and as
such he was elected by ihe democratic par
ty, and having been so elected he siisuiih
tne interests ol ine party vvitnout any
skulking or dodging. And wo defy J.G
Montgomery, tho Algerine, or any of lite
Danville facli';n,lo point out a single prom
inent vole of his in the Legislature, where
he was not sustained by the democratic
members, not only in the house of re pre
senlatives, but in the senate. Even lim vole
of David 13. Mouiiromciy, the brother of
lohn G.Muntgomery is placed vide by side
with that of Daniel Snyder, in the votes !
recited, and yet John G, Montgomery, is J
willing lo outrage vl'e feelings ol a brother,
and denounce tho whole of ihe democratic
membeis of the house in order to injure the
election of Daniel Snyder, because it would
be ugainst hi personal interest, and be
beneficial lo the county generally. And
this aci will be considered still mote deles
table on the part of J. G. Montgomery,
when it is known, that David B. Montgom
ery lust his re-election by allowing himself
to be used as a mere tool and eyecophant of
his brother to advance his private interest
and that of the Danville faction.
We shall not attempt to follow him thro'
all the catalogue, but merely glance at some
ofihu voles mentioned in tlpj article to
sliow the utter recklessness' of tliu writer,
and how little depeudauce can be placed
upon the remaining pmlion of his statement.
Tho article says that Daniel Snyder
' Voted to increase Ihe stale debt $800,
000."
This bill wag authorizing the governor lo
borrow this much money lo pay the semi
annual imprest upon tho state debt due in
Auuiiot following and was passed by a large
vote. This interest musi be paid or repu
diate and deelaie the slate insolvent. What
Pennsylvanian says he did not do right.
None bnt an Jllgeunt and hit. ertu).
''Tie voted lo'authorize tho issue of $2,
10,018 in certificates of slate stock."
There were pressing ilaims on Ihe stale
for money due the domestic creditors, and
the state had no means of paying, and had
this bill passed. There would have been no
necessity of the passage of the celebrated
Relief Hill, which is afterwards brought
Into the account of the ciimcs of Daniel
Snjder.
"He voted to spend on corporations,
,500,000."
There is not one word of truth in the
above. This sum was appropriated by all
anieiidmentoffercdioaiiorigiit.il bill,- ex
pressly for the annual expenses of the go
vernment, the repairs, and the payment lot
work already done to ihe canals, uud was
to have been paid with the certificates of
stuck mentioned above. Boih of these
measures, however, were defeated, and of
course, no appropriations had been made
i ...
thus far nor a dollar voted out of the trea
sury, except th" fitst 8800,000, which went
to pay the semi annual interest on tho stale
debt.
"He votetl to further increase the stale
debt (o Ihe amount of S3, 100, 000 In allow
the banks to issue sliiuplasters to ihut a
mount 10 give this shinplasiers to corpora
tions &e. and in tax the people lo redeem
their sliiuplasters.
This isju gross perversion ol trutiijand ol
faeis.
First It did not increase the slate debt.
for ihe money was to go lo pay debts alrca
dv ilue from the state.
Second The sliiuplasters were not given
lo incorpiiiaiiuiis, but used lor the ptiipusi
bovc elated.
These shiiinhisters, however weic nnih

hanks, called Relief notes, ami now count)

And Daniel bnuler voted lor lliem in con
sequence ofnetilious sent from Ooltiitilm.
ctitiuiy, sig.ieil by a large number of prom
incut democrats asktiii! him to do so, atd
of others, who were in Ilarrishutg at lb
lime the bill passed, urging htm to vote lor
it. Among ihose who sianed petitions fur
the issue of small bills bv the banks, wt-re
John G. Montgomery, Win. Colt, Win
Donaldson, I'cier Udldv, Valentine Dest
and John and Richard Fruit the very me
who denounce Daniel Snyder for voting ft
them, and so well satisfied were thev with
an passage, lllal delegates weie elected
Danville and Madison, instructed without
opposition, lo sustain his reiiominalion, and
only brought up now, because he is the
candidate ol the removal party, and likelv,
if elected, lo iulerferu with theii private
interest.
Thus much for these 0,000,000, which
they unblushiiigly charged Daniel Snyder
voting away. But it is in character with
them. Falsehood, misrepresentation uud
slander, are the only weapons they can use
against hint' And these will be Used with
out stint or mcasore, and no act is loo vile,
gross or unprincipled, for lliem lo resort to,
to defeat the Election of Daniel Snyd:i,aiid
by that means prevent the removal from
laking place.
The remaining voles mentioned in the
article referred to, are of n piece with liiote
we have dis-scclod above. Musi of them
were sections of amendments offered for ihe
express punxiso of killiiiL' the main bills
before ihe house, and were voled down by
ihe friends of iho several bills lo which
they were lo be attached, knowing l lie in to
be so intended. Daniel Snyder did vole
for iinmediatol-esumpiion of the banks in
almost every shape and form in which ii
was presented lo the house, and voted for
Ihe final passage of tho resumption bill, and
the journals are full of his voles to that
effect, which will be found by any man
who will lake ihe trouble lo examine for
themselves. Wo have tho journals of both
sessions, which any person can exHininn by
calling upon us. They need nut take the iron
ble of travelling to Danville, at lite extreme
end of tho county for tho purpose. They
are in the centre of llm county where the
courts ought long bince lo have been held,
and had Ihl-y been, we should not at this
day have had Columbia couun rxi-iled by
either the removal or division question.
A friend of Fruit's remaikcd (ho other
day Ilia! three thousand dollar Ind hi en
raised in Danville in M'Ctire his election.
Gentlemen, you miii-l raic three limes that
iiiuDiilll before you will bo able to defeat
lioiiesl Daniel Snyder, and llm removal
question. Tho people of the roumy are
nut to be bought with iho 'yellow buys,'

not even ii you oner -iwq-cents' a piece
for then votes or .ihvir signatures.
PHILIP BILMBYER.
We have been much amused by tho
course pursued by this gentleman in his
eeetioneering tours through iho couniy
with what grace and case he turns his coat
to suit the company ho is in, and how toady
he is lo become "all things lo all men."
In the lower townships ho asks his frirntls
lo give him their support because ho is op
poeed to tomoval, and Conner a removal
man. In the upper townships ho changes
his position. He is a rcmuval man, and
Conner a Danville man, and therefore he
should be supported by their, because he is
their friend and ho even went so far as lo
say that the Danville people were in favor
of removal lo prevent a division. Weak
nuss of mind is a constitutional complaint
with some, and he must be pisscsscd of it
lo an eminent dtgrcc.ifhu supposes he can
gull the people by such'silly electioneering
as this, when there is not a man in the
county, but what knows that Philip Ilil
meyer is how and always has been a Dan
ville man up to tho hub, and is now doing
all he can to secure the election of Fruit.
lie opposed removal last wiittei with his
name, and with his money, and yet he can
now ask iliem for their suppoit that ho may
use his influence to injure them and ihlcr
Irietnls. Will he ui it. We. think not.

frii uds of reiiioviil do the same. It is but
an net of justice lo their fiicnd, to stand by
him in the hour of peril, when he needs
help. Besides Philip Bilmcyer has hud

The committee having retired for a short
lime, teiiirueil ami reported tho following,
whii li were unanimously adopted. .
fl'hcreusWy unjust mancoveiing' and
intriitie. an improper location of tliu teal of
justice was lirsi formed in Columbia county
in open tiolaiiou in the will of tho majority
of iho inhabitants then therein residing.who
seeing the injustice of the act, and viewing
the inconveniences to he endured in conse
quence thereof, immediately remonstrated
a;,'.dns: the injustice of thu location, in tho
most candid manlier, and have for a Ion?
Itiiis cxerled themselves to obtain removal
to the centre of Ihu county, bv picturing
mil their embarrassed situation, and solicit
ing the Senate and House Reprcsentaiivcs
10 gram that which ihey, by an act of jus
tice, could not withhold. Yet, whenever
ihe subject was candidly presented for log-
stall ve action, tlm unprincipled cxeilmns of
the iohaliit-jitu of Dauville;hy their misrep-resent-itious
and glaring acts of injustice,
have swayed ihe action of the members,
m l thereby defeated our demands for a
removal, aitiimicn near two thirds of the
inhabitants of Columbia county were tho
peiiltiiiiers.
.'hut It icreas, lo decide the long agilatcd
question, our conventions haye placed be
fore i In, pi-ophi. ton candidates, one in favor
of 11 removal of the seal of justice, and tho'
other in favor of a division, thai the ques
tion may be fairly weighed through iho
ballot box political feeling have been sac
raliscd. ami all parlies favorable to a remo
val will express llirir voioe in favor of
DANIEL SNYDER, iho removal candi-
date, whilst llioiie of Dr. ville and Berwick
unite upon the support (of Richard Fruit,
who, if elected, will assist in Iheso perni
cious measures of dividing our small couniy
to gratify a few greedy speculators. They
have induced I' nut to pledge himself aaainst
a division, fur the purpose of deceiving ihe
people, and endeavor lo dupo them into
their unholy measures. It is also a loud
and glaring asseriioii.by (he Danvillites.that
ihn removal question is only a measure of
peculation, wherein the inhabitants ol
Ulooinohurg, arc the only participators.
I his is a lalschood, as dark as the shadows
of the midnight gloom, yet Ibis is an asser-
nun anion;' ttio most reasonablo of 1 heirs.
For they catinnl set forth one reasonable
uid honest argument against tho people's
demand for a removal of ihu seat of justico
Irom the hue ol ivortliumberland 10 tho cen-
ire of Columbia county. Therefore.
Hesotved That it is not only the peoplo
of Uloomshurg, who aro contending for a
leinuval, but ihe honest and intelligent of
.ill parts of the county, who have hung hinh
iheir banner of equal rights, and manfully
maintained their principles through so ma
ny trials and former contests, and who aio
now unwilling 10 surrender them.
Resolved That wo will support tho
removal candidate DANIEL SNYDER,
who hts by his former course whilst acting
a representative of Columbia couniy, has
acted wisely upon all occasions, and hon
estly adhered to the instructions of his con
siitueiits, which entitles him lo the support
of all men favurabla to equal rights and
justice.
llesolved That tho accusations eel forth
by Felly Best, ugainst Daniel Snyder, in
the glaiiug hand bills, aro dishonws'l, untrue
and unworthy of ihe notice of any hoiipat
minded man. Being calculated to deceivo
the people and favor die election of a man
who would curse th county wih tho great
est dis.if.ter. that could iivrr befall it.
Resolved That R chard Fruit, who has
lierriufore sirenuouslv advocrled the remo
val cause, and who h iu now turned "h Dan
ville cumin, fur ihe nke o a nomination
fur ollice. Ims n ndered himself unworthy
of llm support of the Freemen of Colombia
