COUNTY FINANCES,
1 observe that the matt who was never out
of mischief squirms and whines because he
did not get his'' share of county printing.
Well, suppose he did not in 1850, who of
the tax-payers cares, so that the work was
only dona right and not overcharged? He
does not tell how much he drew in previous
years for printing', r.or how much he got
even in 1850 from other officers than the
Commissioners. Tho Treasurer, who lives
in Montour county and through whom our
gounty is yet in litigation for the monny our
tax-payers have paid,Jgavo his jobs of print
ing to Tale, and who cares or complains?
Tate evidently feels that the less said a
boutcontingent expenses the better for him,
so he turns to the complaint that the printing
of assessment books was put by the clerk
under the head of books and book binding.
Certainly that was the proper place for them
to be accounted in. Tbey were posted
there when Mr. Mendenhall was Clerk, and
when the books cost $66 a set. They were
posted there when Mr. Webb priulod them,
and again when Tate himself printed v. set.
Was this then a "perversion" of the record?
The only attention 1 can learn that ho ever
gave this account, was to try to get the
printing of this set of books in 1850, and
when he failed to gel them, to beat down
the price. An act so contemptible is ol
course beneath denunciation.
But complaint for printing comes with an
ill grace from a manlike him who on one
occasion was compelled by the county com
missioners to refund money which he had
unfairly overcharged on a job. The tax
payers have some interest in knowing that
fact. Felty Best used it as a thing over
which to make a great noiso about county-
Tobbcrs and treasury leeches in Bloomsburg.
Such things have and still do bring a heavy
odium upon the honest people of our coun
ty, and used to creato a deep-seated preju
dice against the town.
We can hear of such general and sweep
ing charges of corruption from every corner
of the county, and if tho men who thus
"bring disgrace upon our county affairs are
encouraged we shall hear more of it. Tho
people of Lu/.erue understood this thing bet
ter and gave such a man not a cent's worth
of county printing They saw at Berwick he
had been continually at war with every per
son in his way, and spit out his billingsgate
slang upon every person who did not feed
him with ' Hack mail'' te his liking. He
then commenced abusing the Luzerne com
missioners and, after distracting the party
'there, abused himself out of that county.
As soon as lie catne hero the Democratic
party became distracted and divided, and di
saster and defeat has been its recurring late
ever since. I have desired to see the peo
pie of the party and the county united and
harmonious, and not the prey of unprinci
pled and selfish harpies.
I mentioned before, in brief, what swelled
the contigeut expenses of the county for the
few lastycars. I should only have added to
the other items a large sum of interest paid
on money which the county was compelled
to borrow Nobody ever pretended that the
suras as published wete incorrect, nor is there
anything wrong in the items which makeup
the account. JUNIUS.

In pursuance of an Act of the General

hereby given :
"That no person shall bo permitted to

factory evidence, either in his own oath, or
affirmation of another, that he has paid such
a tax, or on iailure to produce a receipt,
shall make oath to the payment thereof; or.
second, il he claims a right to vote by being
an elector between the ages of twenty-one
and twenty-two years, he shall depose, on
oath or affirmation, that he has resided in
the state at least one year next before his ap
plication, and make such proof of residence
ID his district as is required by this act, and
that ho does verily believe from the account
given him that he is of the age aforesaid,
and give such other evidence as is required
'by this act whereupon the name of the per
son so admitted to vote shall bs inserted in
the alphebetieal list by the inspectors, and a
note made opposite thereto by writing the
word ''lax" if he shall be admitted to vote
by ronson of having paid a tax, or the word
"ago," if he shall be admitted to vote on ac
count of his age, and in either case the rea
son ef such vote shall he called out to tho
clerks, who shall mark it in the list of voters
kept by them.
"In all cases where tho name of the per
son claiming to vote is not found on the list

ors, of his right to vote, whether found there
on or not, is objected to by any qualified cit
izens, it skull he tho duty of the inspectors,
to examine such person on oath ns to his

said, shall he permitted to vote in the town
ship, ward, or district in which he shall re

such person on conviction shall bo fined in
any sum not exceeding five hundred dol
lars and be imprisoned for any time not less
that one or more than twelve months. And
[ if it shall be shown to tho court where the
J trial of such offence shall be had that the
1 person so offending was not a resident of the
[ city, ward, district, or township, where the
said offence was committed and not entitled
to a vote therein, then on conviction, he
shall be sentenced to pay a fine of not less
than one hundred dollars, and be imprisoned
not less than six months nor more than two
: years.
"If any person or persons shall make any
bet or wager upon the result of any election

make any such bet or wager, either l>y ver
bal proclamation thereof, or by any written

any person or persons to make such bet or
wager, upon conviction thereof he or they
shall forieit and pay three times the Amount
so bet or offered to be bet."
I also make known and give notice as in
and by the 13th section of tho aforesaid act
lam directed, "that every person except
justice of lire peaeo, who shall hold any of
fice or appointment of profit or trust under
the Uuited States, or of this Slate, or of any

And by the same act of Assembly it is al
so made "the duty of every .Mayor, Sheriff",

Extracts from opinions of the Press.,
Sacrcil Scenes and Characters —By the Rev-
J. T. Headley. This work may be very
properly considered a companion to the
" Sacred Mountains,' by the same author.
Its object is to illustrate arid ''render rnoio
life-like" the sacred writings. It is not tlio
author's design to supersede the Bible. But
his wish is excite a solicitude to obtain, and
to become intimately acquainted and per
fectly familiar with its history, doctrines and
laws; to know its truth to imbibe its spirit,
feci its power, and pahake of its salvation;
in a word, to prize in sorro measure as it
deserves, this treasure which is indeed be
yond price. We predict for it a circulation
far beyond any of the author's former works
[ The News, Jan. 7th.
Rambles end Sketches —By Rev. J. T. Head
ley. We have not for a long time sat down
to a book with more pleasing anti'cipauons,
or found those anticipations more fully re
alized, than in the perusal of the work be
fore us, and we know it will be hailed with
gratification by the many admirers of the
talented author. His "Napoleon and his
Marshals" was, perhaps, as popular and
found at least as many enthusiastic readers
as any book that can be mentioned. We
think llie Rambles and Sketches aro des-i
lined to be as popular at least as any of his
previously published works. There is not a
dull chapter in the work, filled as it is with
"an infiuilo variety." The author has am
ple room and verge enough for the employ
ment of his fine talents to great advantage,
and most successfully lias lie accomplished
the task. The biographical sketch of not
author is interesting and "well considered,"
and adds much to the value of the bowK,
which is got up in a very neat and altracu
style by the publisher.— See Portland Tran
script, Dec. 15th.
Mr, Hcadlcy is one of themost promising wri,
ters of HIM couilli Y , anil we liavo hero one of hi.
, host hooks—ol.e oil which ho can safely real his
fame: It possesses Iho unfatigning rharma of
perioft simplhily and tiulh. There is graceful
frankness pervading the composition,. which en
gages the interest of lite reader in the tiaihor ns
well as in the subject, his rumbles about Route.
Paris and London exhibit a thousand tiaits ofuti
ingenuous natu e, upon which a man of tasto
will delight to linger. We predict for this a
aale equal to that ol any of the author's works.
