The Whig majority in that city is 1 1'49. 'Gain,

which casts hut about 2500 votes. , The lowest

District, will riot be mncli Jess man uuu mcs
With regard to the two other Congressiona
Disiripts. Ihe intelligence is yet inicertain
The Bee has a statement u'hich elects Daw
son tbe Van Buren candidate by 13 majority
The contest war very close. This District has
Ion"- been regarded as the strong-hold of Loco
Focoisni.
The result is yet uncertain in the Third Con
i ninnnl nistnrt The candidates were
Winn (Y. B.) and Moore (Whig.)
The Globe claims the election of the former
'n- a small majority ; but the returns in the i
Orleans papers are favorable to the Whigs
Taking the Van Buren accounts, however, as
. orrect with regard to the three Congressional
districts, the Harrison majority is very con
siderable. The Bee says that White's major
ity is ample to allow the election of Van 15 u
renites in the other two Districts, and yet give
the State to Harrison by more than a thous
and. The Senate will, in all probability, consist
of 9 Whigs and 8 Loco Focos. The Whigs,
n is also thought, will elect a majority of the
nembers of the House.
The Bee says :hat under all the circumstan
ces, we consider the Legislature safe. Should
:'iis news be fully confirmed, we may with con
:idcncc put down Louisiana for the Hero of
ihe Thames.
New Orleans was brilliantly illuminated on
the night of the 10th, and a salute of 100 guns

Mr. John W. Baer, the " Buckeye Black
smith," has been made the object of lierce and
unremitting persecution. The most infamous
and improbable slanders .concerning him have
been propagated through the press and orally.
We invite the attention of the public, and the
particular attention of those who have been en
gaged in the dissemination of these slanders, to
the annexed statement. This siatement was
produred by a gentleman of this place, who has
given us permission to publish it. Mr. Baer
as h himself told the people, is aplain obscure
man, who is known only in his own neighbor
hood; it was consequently more easy to fabricate
slanders concerning him, and more difficult for
him to rebut them. If he had travelled in a
coach attended by servants, and been known as
one of the magnates of the land, these Federal
gentry would have been less hasty in forming
unfavorable opinious of him.
The subjoined certificate is signed by the
most respectable citizens of South Bloofield,
ihe village in which he has his home. Mr.
Baer left with us when he was here last, a let
ter of recommendation, bearing the name of
some of the roost distinguished citizens of
Ohio, which letter may be seen at this office.
Some of the names attached to the subjoin
ed certificate are hardly legible, and may be
printed incorrectly.
South Bloomfield, June 26th, 1840.
We the undersigued citizens of South Bloom
field, Pickaway county, Ohio, learn with regret
that our fellow citizen John W, Baer, has been
slandered in the vilest manner by the press and
otherwise, at the Eastv; and having been reques
ted to state what we know concerning him,
do certify to all whom it may concern that he
has lived amongst us, and that we have been
acquainted with him for more tlian three years
an j that he is just what he professes to be,
JOHN W. BAER, a poor but honest and in
dustrious blacksmith ; that he has a respecta
ble family, which he has supported by laboring
at his trade and that alone ; that he has never
been known by any othr name but John W.
Baer : that he is not a defaulter, and that he is
n )t guilty of larceny or any other crime or act
that will prevent his returning to this neighor
ho'il whenever he pleases as pretended by
those who slander and abuse him, and that we
are credibly informed that Mr. Baef sustained
iho same character in other counties where he
resided before he settled with us. Nothing but
a desire to have justice done to every honest
man und worthy. American citizen, has promp
ted us to make "the above declaration.

Respected Sir ; In conformity to your re

most confidence in the statements there made
for the character and veracity of the gentlemen
who have affixed their signatures to the above
statement is the strongest guarantee I could
give you for its correctness, having a personal

She can eat drink and be merry
without its costing her a cent.
She can get divorced from her hus

r CAUTION.
Public Opinion from whose decision there is no
appeal, has been so olteu and so loudly manifested
in favor of BRANDRET1PS VEGETABLE U-
JSIVERSAL PILLS, that it is not surpnsmgthere
should be found in almost, every city, town, and
village in the United States, persons so depraved
at heart, and so utterly devoid Of the principal o f
moral rectitude, as to manufacture a spurious arti
cle, and palm it off.on the unsuspecting public as
the erenuine medicine, from tho result of which so
many happy results have been accrued to humani
ty. It is painful to think that an inestimable good
should be product of direct and immediate evil
but so it is. .
The very excellence of BrandrctVs Vegetable
Univesal Pills, has in some respects,, opened a spe
sies of high-way through which cupidity and ava
rice carry on their depredations without check &
notwithstanding the frequency of exposure alrea
dy made notwithstanding the indelible disgrace
which has been neaped upon connterfeitdruggists--notwithstanding
the large amount of human su tier
ing which has been the consequence of this impo
sition and fraud, druggists continue to carry on
this revolting traffic ; and counterfeits are as nu
merous and as varied in the market as if no de
nunciation had ever been made, and public indig
nation never been expressed.
Since, however, this destructive evil still exists,
and neither the fear of God, nor ofarthly punish
ment, can entirely put it down, it becomes my im
perative duty again and again to caujion the public
against purchasing pills of a druggist, professing
to be Brandrelh's Pills for as under no circum
stances is any of this class made an Agent, it fol
lows of course that the Pills sold at such places
professing to be Brandreths Pills are universally
base counterfeits, highly injurious to the health of
the People. . . , .

sis as any paper issued, at home or abroad, and
its ample means will be always employed to make

It has the largest subscription IN TIIE WORLD!

ing from the Lakes to (he Ocean, and combining'all
interests and classes of the republic. It is the lar
3est and cheapest journal ever issued!! Each
number of the Courier contains as much matter
as would fill a 12mo. volume, the cost of which
alone would be price of the paper for a whole year.

Popular Music.
In tho Courier is inserted the music of the most
popular Airs, Ballads and Songs, as soOn as thoy

THE JEFFERSON.) AN REPUBLICAN
in hrinciple. will'heall ity it!u r.urports.(lhc Hnn
and tin wavering ad;i:ate .of the (priuoi pies and
doctrines ol the democratic party, olnWatdd by
the illustrious Jkficrsok the' right ol the peo
ple to think, to speak, and to net, independent
ly, on all subjects, holding themsi Ives ivspou
sihle to no power for the frro exercise of this
right, but their God, their Country, and lnr
Laws, which they themselves have created.
A free and untraiumelod Press, conducted. in a
spirit worthy of our institutions, is a public bles
sing, a.safeguard to the Constitution under which
we live, and it, should be cherished and support
ed by every true republican. Such, then, it i
designed .to . make the paper now estab
lished, and as such, the publisher cil up
tho enlightened citizens of Monroe amtrlMo
aid him in this laudable enterprise. TlrfH
has arrived when the; Jress.shouid take a Wr?attr
and faarl.ess stand against the evidently increas
ing moral and political degeneracy of tho day,
and, endeavor, by a fair, candid, and honorable
course to remove those barriers, whioh section
al prejudices, party spirit, and party animosity
have reared to mar the social relations of mea
without accomplishing any paraniom-.i good.
THE JEFFERSON IAN REPUBLICAN
will not seek to lead or follow any faction, or to
advocate and support the .schemes- of any par
ticular set of men. It will speak independent
ly on all State and National questions, award
ing to each that support which its merits may
demand, never hesitating, however, to condom n
such measures, as in the opinion of the editor is .
justly warranted, holding as a first principle :
" The greatest good to Ihe greatest nurnlnfi:"
Believing that, the great principles of demoe
racy are disregarded by the present Chief Ma
gistrate of the Nation, Martin Vax Bvrkn,
the JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN, will
decidedly, but honorably oppose his re-election
to the high and responsible station v. hich he
now holds.
It will firmly oppose the " Independent. Trea
sury" Scheme, and all other schemes having
for their object tbe concentration. in tho hftuS.-t
of one mau, and that man the President of tho
Nation, all power over the public moneys, n
power, which, when combined with that vr--ed
in him by the Constitution as Commaiuier-in-Chief
of the American forces, Military ami
Naval, together with an enormous oflictal pa
tronage, would render him more powerful tliini
the Executive of the British Nation, "att.l in
short make our Government, de facto an "Elec
tive Monarchy. ' t
It will ever maintain that the welfare. rtir
Country and the preservation of her liept;blic:s.
Institutions should be the first and only senti
ments of our hearts in the choice of onrpnJ.it.;
servants ; ihat honesty, fidelity, and capabili: ,
are the only true tests of merit that all men
are created equalj and, therefore, should alike
enjoy the privileges conferred on them by tho
Constitution without being subject to proscrip
tion, or coerced bv the influence of party.
The columns" of the JEFFERSONIAN
REPUBLICAN will ever be open to the free
discussion of all political questions, believing
as we do, that there is no liberty where both
sides may not be heard, and where one portion
of freemen are denied the privilege of declar
ing their sentiments through the medium of the
Press, because they difler from the majoritv.
The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN
will ever take a lively interest in the affairs of
Monroe and Pike, and of the Senatorial and
Congressional Districts with which they are
connected.
The Farmer, the Merchant, the Mechanic,
and the Laborer, will each find a friend in tho
columns of the JEFFERSONIAN REPUB
LICAN. Due care will be taken to furnish its
readers with the latest Foreign and Domestic
News, and such Miscellaneous reading as will
be both interesting and instructive. In short it
is designed to make the paper worthy of an ex
tensive patronage, both from the strictly moral
tone which it will ever possess, and tho efforts
of the editor to make it a good and useful
Family Newspaper.
The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN
will be printed on a super-royal sheet of good
quality, and with good type.
Terms $2 in advance ; $2,25 at the end of
six months, and $2,50 if not paid, before the ex
piration of the year. No subscription taken for
a less term than six months.
