"I think the Act of last session in-' creasing their compensation to $7OO per annum iru unwise, and, if elected, I shall eirtainly vote for its repeal, and use my intlaence to here the old com pensation of $5OO restored."—satat Da rturges Letter to Jacalt Buser, Sept, 8, 188. ,glir Such was the pledge made a year ago by Shltrzt, Drationsw, the Know Nothing and Mark Republican candidate for ro-elec tam to the Lezislature. The people have a right toluos whether bia votes last winter squared with his promises, and we propose to give a full, fair,• and connected statement of them, so liar as they related to the question of " extra pay." Tho Star and the &abut , / may rave and runt as much as they please— the; vital', in urdar to break the force of our exposures of Purboraw's delinquencies, de noaDisened vilify us as farm their high.taiied, Christian morality may permit—they may characterize us as 's unscrupulous," " ungen tlemanly," and so on, to the end of the chap ter of lisinroman slang—we have the consola tion of knowing that THE T,ll;'f ll is with us --that the regular JOURNAL OF THE. HOUSE sustains UP in every position we have taken. So confident are we of this, that for the correctness of every vote given in this article, we pledge ONE HUNDLED Dole LARS—the Journal, kept by the sworn offi cers of the House, and which dues nut lie, to be appealed to for the proof. Purboraw's pledge is given above,— taken from the Star of September 17th, 185 S We are particular about this, as it is not un likely that the Star and the Sentinel aria even deny the pledge, if it should seem to be neer?, ary in order to help Mr.. Purboraw out of the difficulty he has gotten into by Lrea4 lag They have already denied that the Appropria tion Bill made prorisiern fur the payment of the members' salarzi, in the fare of the notori ous fact that if they had nut been paiTtlir' it, they would have returned home trithod any puy at all Su brazen-faced have these papers become in their falsehoods. Now to Purboraw's votes: On the 2d of March, the Appropriation Bill vras under consideration. The fourth sec tion, as reported by the Committee of Ways and Means, provided for the sum of one hun dred and fifty thousand dollar', for the pay ment of the expenses of the Legislature, in cluding the pay and miletk4e of the members. clerks and officers, stationery, newspapers, &c. The section contained no change in the amount of salary . to members, and, of course, left it at $7OO, as for the previous session. Mr. Hottemitine mused to amend by re pealing the $7() pay, and making it $500. Mr. flamersly moved to amend Hottenstine's amendment, by making the pay a daily one-- 7:1.50, with expenses going to and returning from Han iaburg. The yeas and nap were called on Mr. llamenily's motion, avid it car riod-49 yeas to 41 nave—Mr. Durborate toting antang the nays, or AGAINST the $1,50 per day. The question then came up, " will the House agree to the amendment as emend ed," and the yeas were 39, the nays 52—Mr. Durboraw still Toting with the nays, or against the $1,50 per day. The motion was declared lost. Fur these two TOMS we refer to page 454 of the House Journal, March 2d. Mr. Walborn snored to make the pay one thoucand dollars per session. This Mr. Mc- Clure pri.posed to amend by making the pay .5.5,00 per day, but fired no limit as to Me num ber of days Mt pay mfght continue. This was a sharp trick of :Mi.Clure's to get large pay through protracted sessions—all the time at .$.5 per diem. The year and nays were culled on this motion of Mot:lore's and resulted, :;6 fur, to 59 against—Nr. Durborair among Me yeas. The amendment was declared lust. when Mr. Walborn withdrew his $lOOO ito tton—and the section was agreed to, still at legring OW S7OQ, to the winter before, and to the repeal of which Samuel Durboraw was most solemnly pledged. Fur Jlurboraw's rote on the MeClote amendment see !Luse Jour nal, page 455,—March 2d. Thus tar in the Journal, Mr. Durboraw has not redeemed his pledges. March 3d and 4th were mainly taken up with the same bill, and in the evening of the 4th, it came up on final passage, the 4th sec tion remaining unchanged, and of course still continuing the old salary of r Oil. On this final passage vote the yeas find nays were as follows—see House Journal, page 412: Yeas---Messrs.

Mr. Durboraw never voted for ..$5OO pay per scallion, and we defy the S e ntiael, now and here, to point us to the page of the Journal that proves he did. i He did vote for MoCture's proposition for $5,00 A DAY, but that, was very far from " restoring the old compensation of $500" pm sr: sion —beeaw.o McClure was careful (the tricky ndroente of high riay) Red fe) lintle the number o f (Lys deft -lay triads du, h pay should (ordinate, so that it might as cosily have amounted to $BOO as under, and more l i k e ly above, as a majority of the members would donbtleee have made it convenient to sit out a long session whiiet that rite of pay continued !

The propusition was calculated to increase the pay of members, and therefore ho had voted against it. Mr. !mall thought that the amendment to the amendment was making the ralary ap proximate nearer to ;lON. Ile had there fore toted for it. %3r. Stereos said, my reason for toting against this a mendment, is because I think it will hare s tendency to increase our salaries by protracted sessions, instead of dimini•hiug them. lam In fat or of n fixed salary of $5OO and mileage. Mr. Kinney gave the following reasons for his vote on the above question : reasons for voting against the amendment of the gen tleman from Franklin, (Mr. M'Clure,) to fix the pay of members at per day are, that the per diem system is an exploded system in Pennsylvania, and would tend to prolong the sessions; and, on the whole, increase the ex penses of the government. Mr. Fleming gnve 4 his reasons for voting "no" un the amendment of the e,entleuvi from Franklin, because he sincerely helieved it, would result in increasing the compensa tion of members to more than StA), the sum which he thought sufficient compensation. It being evident that every day over one hun dred, would result in some SBUO per day ex penses, and 'hold out inducements for prolon ged et pions. Mr. Pinkerton said he was opposed to the amendment offered by the gentleman from Franklin. (Mr. M'Clure.) lle believed if the amendment curried, that the expenses of the government would be it.creased rather than diminished. The expenses each day, apart ! from the pay of members, are not leas than $.500 per diem, in this Mouse and Senate ;hitd lie felt satisfied if this amendment prevailed, that hereafter, iustead of the session lasting. AS they should, but about eighty days, they - would be prqOnged to not lets than one hun dred and twenty-fire days.

True, there were some to to 100 persons present, ladies and ull, but of this number fully on ,, third were from Gettysburg; and of the remaining two thirds there were nearly as many Democrats us Ithtel Republicatts, and thou. the most at tentive listeuvrs. The Black Republican leaders must indeed have %cry queer and very erroneous ideas con cerning the people-of Franklin township, to suppose that they are so extremely verdant and gullible as to believe such sills , stuff as they saw tit to spit out last night.

EDITOR : Dear Sir :—The " Nigger " party had' s. meeting hete fast night, and of all the political meetings I have ever .'ttended in my life, it certainly wa..i the poorest. There were about one hundred persons present, all told, and neafty one-half were boys. The meeting was organised by Mr. E. Myers getting up and having the officers toted tor, and then naming them afterwards. A friend at my right suggests that ho did that last, in the event of his naming them first, Soule of ttein would have been too exceptionable even fur their uwn " color." One ot your Gettys burg lawyers then introduced toe candidate for Senator, his preaenoe exciting no al.- plants whatever ; and the quasi-eongreii , m,in elect thinking it too bad, Uttered three cheers, which were taintiy given by toe delegation they brought aloug from Gettysburg. Ile then opened by expressing his love t!) for Democrats, which was perfectly understood even by the wayfaring, and went on in a poet ical strain about our green fields, and hills, and dales, and told us that our prosperity was the result of our own labor, thing we also were• perfectly aware of. Ilia whole speech was entirely itireign trum the points at issue, and was perfect bosh. Apro poe, after Mot:lure finished, McPherson in troduced him to one of our Democrats in the neighborhood, thiaking to make a vote, but uur old friend said, "list are not my man. I can't go you." It is needless to e" soul Mr. McClure looked considerably crest-fallen. McPherson then batik the stand, but no one applauded. His speech was of one hour's length, in vindication of Mr. Durboraw's course in the Amenably, but he rather made matter. wane than better. lie, like McClure, closed amid perfect silence. Some of the delegation from Gettysburg then called for their lawyer, who responded in a speech cf live or tau minutes. Ile at tempted to email the Dentooravy, but has ef forts were too poor so )unity me in giving even this passing noshes. When he cooed, no tine knew it, tor no one war paying atten tion to hies, and this was the end of it. I beg pardon, they did afterwards get ap a fare. by dressing two men up to represent an elephant.

The meeting at Littlestown, on Wednesday evening, was a great gathering of the Democ racy of that rtmon—Liermany, Mountjoy, Itlountpleasant and ' Union being all repretente ed. The assemblage, we were informed by unpredjudieed persons. was fully twice as large as that at the Opposition meeting held there a few evenings previous, and the warm est enthusiasm prevailed throughout.

Mr. Douglas ad dressed the vast crowd at some length, in a speech of great power, which, whilst it moo tathed no word of disrespect towards his op ponent, Mr. McClure, abounded in facts of telling force against him. When he ceased speaking, "three cheers for Douglas :" were given with a will. J. C. Neely and S. J. Vandersloot follow ed, with speeches that were well received, and J.
