The folloWing statements fully refute the cbarg es made some days since in the Commercial Jour nal, against Col: Brinker, a foreman on the West ern Division of the Pennsylvania Canal. A ma jority of the signers. are whig,s—opposed to Col. Brinker in politics, but as honest and fair men 'deem it their duty to give their testimony in defence of the business character of a worthy citzen, and a faithful, capable and efficient public agent. The testimony as to Col. very capacity and in_ . :dustry, is indeed very strong, and we doubt not. Will satisfy the" unprejudiced" of all parties, that grois injustice has been done him by the editor o f the Journal. But, We are not sorry that the Journal has com tnenced dismissing the subject of Canal man agement, for the reason that it will remind the people of the villainous manner in which the pub. lie works were managed in the years 18Jr1, 1837, and 1838, by a whig, Board of Canal Commission_ err. and arouse the public to the great importance of the present contest.. All that is now necessary to the complete and overwhelming defeat of the whig candidate for Canal Commissioner, is a full investi gation of Canal affairs At the end of three years of whig, rule on the public works, we find the re venues all expended, and the improvements large ly in debt since 1.835:, it is well known the pub . lie works have been under :the control of Demo cratic Commissioners, who have not only paid off the debt with .which the improvements were bur thened at the close of the Ritner whig administra• lion, kit we find that in the two and a half years preceding the Ist of August,lB34, a nett reven ue of nearly ONE AND A HALF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, has been realized by the state. But, further comment at present: is unnecessary—we ask for the statements a careful examination. TO THE PUBLIC. thetindersigned, citizens of East Deer township, Allegheny county, residing near the canal, and in the vicinity of where the latehreaches have occur red, have heard that cliargesliave been made a gainst Col. Batmen, one of the Foremen on the Line. for neglecting his duty and also a want of capacity. We, regardless of political feeling or prejudice, take pleasure in saving that Cul. Brinker, in our opinion has shown no ';want want of industry or ' proper care in the discharge Of his duty—that the first breach occurred without, giving the slightest notice, and was the work of the muskrats; the 'second occurred by the unusual hard rain which took plalt - on the `..12d of Abe,list, which swept every thing before it, and inuwitlistanding the waste-vviers near the breach Were taken out, yet in thirty minutes from the clusc'of the rain, the canal raised to 'such 'such a height that the waste of water buist over the embankment, and neither Col. Brinker or any another, or all other men. could have prevented it; a man on horseback was immedi ately sent to the next wast will, but it was all in vain; it was the work ofa lew mornents; the breach • es have_ been repaired with di, much despatch as was possible, and we take pleasure in saying that ~:;rt our opinion Col. Brinker is.an honest, industri ous, persevering man and competent to discharge the duties for which he has been appointed, arid we regard the charges agairsit Col. Brinker, in the Daily and Weekly Commercial Journal, as untrue, unjust, and a base slander. Yours, &c. ~,, inns :••• . G.

On the following Monday morning he was in company with his hands, returning to complete the job. .1 met him about 4 miles below the 12 mile lock, on my toad to Pittsburgh on Monday morning, and informed him of the breach near Tarrentum, and he told me that I was the first one that had informed him of the breach, and that he knew nothing of it previous,tc:, my telling him. • DAVID C. scorr.

We can assure-the editor of the Journal, that the history of that cor rupt whig administration is still 'fresh in.the re- collections of the people, and that they wilt nut soon again trust the wings with the management of the publiO works. The .Truirn al thringh daily filled with niatter abusive Fus - rsa, the editor. thus fur, ha's not dared to directly assail the com petency, elliciencY, or honesty of the Democratic nominee. At the dOse of the Ritner whig administration, the public vi•orks were found - in a deplorable con dition, and it has since required the most indefat igable exertions on the part of Democratic Canal Commissioners to retrieve their character, and pay off the load of debt with which whig management had . burthezfed them. To prove that what we say is correct, we direct the attention of the reader to the following statements, exhibiting the receipts and expenditures on finished lines of improvements for the years 1836, 1837 and 1838, the three years of whig rule ; and also the years 18.1.1 and 154 and to the lstia August, 18.16, which includes nearly the wh f ole time that Mr. FosTEn has performed the duties of Canal Commissioner.

Let Its now see how the case stands—let us see whether, the members of the Democratic Canal Board, so much abused by the Journal, are really desening, of censure. The Whigs had control of the public works for three years, 1S 3n, 1.837 and 1838. After deduct ing expenses of repairing the iluntindon breach the official records show. as the nett amount of revenue derived from the pulic works.. Amount of old debts left unpaid, 'according to the report of Mr Sthrorn, himself a Whig. and chairman of a whig committee, of a whiz :Fenate, From this! sum deduct the amount of canal revenues in the treasury at the close of the Ritner whig adminis tration, Leaving the state in debt the sum of $72 . 4:9,3:f . 2. 13 To this should be added the expen ses of repairing the improvements, which Mr. Sthrom, estimated would cost about slss,ooo—double the a mount for ordinary annual repairs— but say the repairs cost This sum actually expended, and we find the public improvements at the close of the (tither whig administra tion, after having expended all the re venues derived from the works, actu ally in debt the sum of s.ll2Ct.ril 2 ri All the resources of the Canal expended, and a debt incurred of over $1 0 ` , , 11 0' , , So much lot whig rule. Now let us see what has been dime by,the Dem ocratic Board: Net amount of revenue received on the public works, for the years 1511, 15.15, and to the ist ot Aug t. To thin sum add the amount of old debts paid, Showing the handsome snot of ONE MILLION THREE HUNDRED ANI) FORTY SEVEN THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND TN 'EN TY EIGHT DOLLARS SEVENTY-ONE CTS. as the atrrouot of net revenue derived from the public works of the state, in the two years and a halt, which they have been under the control of tin. present competent and efficient Board. At the ex piration of three years of whig rule we find the public works in debt nearly $-Ini , Pllo, after having expended all the revenues. Now look at the tutu'. er side; at the end of two and a half years of Dern. ocratic rule we find that the 'public works of the state have yielded' a net revenue amounting to nearly one and a half millions of dollars, and the works clear of debt! The damage done to all the state works this last spring was very great—bully equal in extent we thiek,to that in Huntingdon county, known as the big breach, in 1838. The Huntingdon breach occurred in •J une, and the whole season's navigation on that part of the works was lost-the breach was repaired. at an expense of $337,11!),33. The breaches of last spring under the direction of the present Democratic Board of Commission. ers, were repaired in six weeks, costing some thing less than $llO,OOO. After examining the above facts, we think the people will not be quite so foolish as to entrust the public work's again in the hands of a whig Board of Commissioners. PLEASME EXCUILSION--The new and splend idly furnished steamer Circassian, Capt. M. A. Cox, will make a pleasure trip to Brownsville and back on Tuesday next. The Circassian is a first class boat, and we do not think those of our friends whO have been confined to the city during this op pressively hot weather could avail themselves of a better oppertunity to gain a day's recreation and en joyment; the expense will be but trifling—tickets for the trip, including dinner, costing only $1,50. Capt. Cox •is the most gentlemanly and obliging officer we know of, and the day can be spent very' pleasantly. Terz.rras.—The Theatre on Satinlay evening was well filled, the performance went off admira bly, and the audience appeared delighted.

We all ways considered' the writer, one who was disposed to dojustice to an opponent, notwithstanding his own peculiar partialities for men, and measures— and the fact of him investigating, and when con vinced acknowledging his error, is another striking evidence of his disposition to act fairly and can didly. The reason assigned by the writer, for tieing un der the impression is very plaitAtle. The torrents of rnissrepresentations which -have been pnuring forth from the Whig press of the state, during the past year. in relation to the nDernocratic party and the Tarifj '1:?," were well calculated to deceive the roost careful observers, and led them into the belief that if the law should be repealed, it would he impossible to have any other revenue law- enact ed. We do not wonder, that such n continued flow of misrepresentation; together - with the oft repeated slander, that the “Democratic party of Allegheny county" had pledged themselves, during the cam paign uf'•l to oppose any modification, or altera tion, of the:law of -I2,lead our friends into the belief that every body was in favor of it, when those who first stated it, are beginning to &Um it themselves. The editors of the Chronicle have acted honora ble, and we are glad to have the false impression corrected, in their able and influential Journal • , SMOK NG A FlltSllMAN.—Forrie of the dignita ries of the Sophomor Class in old Yule, soon after the late asemblage of the students, undertook to initiate a Freshman in sonic of the mysteries of the school by the ancient process of smoking.— Fur this purpose six of them visited the room of a young Freshman, with pipes in their mouths smoking lustily, and at the same time iumointing the hot stove with assaloqula. As no compliments had been passed, Freshy very cooly rose, walked out of the door, turned the key, and lest the smo kers to enjoy the fragrance which they had crea. ate 1. After an hour or two, Freshy called to en quire how they had spent the evening, when the isophs cried for quarters and were suffered to de part. They did not like assafcetida at all, and thought it ratherdangerous to jump out of a trio story window. A PLEASANT SURPRISE.—Among the amusing things in our foreign papers, ate find an anecdote of a distinguished scientific gentleman, which is rather interesting. At one of the meetings of the British Association, Professor Faraday related a remarkable instance of that recklessness among miners which is so fruitful a cause of accidents.— !laving gone down to inspect the Haswell coi -1 wry, to asertain the cause of the terrible explo sion there. he was watching some miners making their preparations for blasting the coal. one of them holding, at the time an unprotected candle in his! hand; when the boring was completed, he asked cowl of the mem where the gunpowder isa. nn which he t was ans‘‘ered, , -you are sitting upon it, tar." • $411,115 22 BATHING IN MAXICO.--Kellll.lll, of lite TiCaV WIC, %riles from llatamuras as follows.—'.

He was taken to a fountain, but he would not drink nowhere butlrona the spot where the water gushes free and fresh. This con tinned several days, until the master, touched by the extraordinary intelligence of the poor creature, resolved to make no more attempts upon him with his poisons. The dog is now very gay and happy, but eats nothing that he does not first see his master touch, nor will he drink, except from the purest spot of the fountain." Borrowing Babies.--An amusing incident occur lately in Boston: A gentleman and lady in that city were blessed with a beautiful child, of about a year: old, which attracted so much attention frorn the neighbors, that the young ladies opposite fre quently sent over "to borrow the baby." Alter being obliged to send for the child several times, Mr—, on coming home to dinner, got out of temper on finding it gone as usual—'Here, Jane,' said he, addressing the nurse. 'g o over to the Misses --and get the baby! give them my compliments and tell them I wish they'd get a baby of their own, and not be obliged to borrow!'—Cist's Acker lam Jlrr ElephienCo Doings.—We :learn •by a gentle maMof this city, who was at,,Pialiport on Satui - -- : driy;that:itmoon of that day an elephant belong ingito a Menagerie exhibiting there, walked out of his tent toWard a span of horStra attached to a yea ' gonrn soe twenty rods off The i'drses" took fright at, the huge beast approached, theM,, broke loose and run a few rods to the angle ; of a fence,- the ele phant followed, - capsized the wagon and threw the' horses some two rodS over the fence. One of the hOrses rose with several broken ribS, and managed to escape his assailant, which fell upon the othir with his tusks, tore out his entrails, and continued to toss him along the fence - some ten rods or - more., At this time the keeper, 'who was at dinner when the elephant escaped' from the tent, came up and called the elephant by name. The eiephant imme diately obeyed the word; and followed the keeper to an orchard about a hundred rods oft where - he was secured by strong chains made f\it to the trunk ofa full grown tree, Just as our in(inmant left in the afternoon he heard that the ele-phant had uprooted the tree to which he was fastened, and had injured a man; but learned no particulars. The rage of the elephant:it is said, was caused by some tobacco concealed inn the food that some of the bystanders ollbred to him. People cannot be too cautious how they trifle insuch a way with an elephant. —Buff ula Com. Catifornia.—We have received information, on which we place implicit reliance, that COIIIIIIO. dote Stoat took possession of Monterey on the nth of July last On the 9th of July, Commander John B. .Montgomery, of the Portsinotith, sum. moned the commandant of the Yerba Buena to surrender. 'What the result of this summons was, we ate not informed. A few days previous to the 6th of July, a de tachment from Col. Fremont's force took posses sion of a frontier post called Sonoma to the north of San Francisco. Gen. Castro attempted to dislodge them; but after a slight skirmish, and the arrival of Col. Fremont in person, he, Castro, retreated. There appears to have been as much dissension among the Californians belbre the arrival of Cam. Sloat, as existed in other parts of Mexico. On the 15th June a junta met at Santa Barbara, headed by Governor Pica, to declare California independ ent; which movement was met by a proclamation from the Commandant General Castro, declaring martial law throughout the country The following scraps are taken from Ilutchim son's History of Massachusetts, voluthe -Th 14;73, Eunice Cole was tried, and the , jury Mond her not legally guilty, but there were'strong grounds to suspect her of familiarity with the devil:' "Mary Osgood says, further, that she was carri ed through the air to Five.
