The Loco Foco Assembly Ticket is now complete. It is as follows: B. S. SCHOONOVER, Stroudaburg, JOSEPH LAUBACH, Bath, CHAS. A. LUCKENBACH, Bethlehem Democracy and Corporations. The Philadelphia Sun, in replying, to an ar- tide in the Pennsylvaman declaring mat tne " Democracy" are " opposed to all exclusive grants and privileges of any kind," refreshes the memory of that journal with the following undeniable facts, which we re-publish for the purpose of exposing the hypocritical pretenders who are endeavoring to humbug the people. The truth is, and the records of our State his tory will show it, that the Locofocos are the friends and advocates of these corporations, and created ail thai now exist in tne uomnioiiwcami. For years Locofocoism'has been in the ascend ant in Pennsylvania, and all these "exclusive grants" and "monopoly privileges" which flood the State are the exclusive offspring of that parly. The Sun' rebuts, the falsehoods of the Penn sylvanian with the following facts: "The whole State of Pennsylvania is now crammed with corporations, covered by exclu sive grants, and devoured by privileges to mo nopolists ! Pennsylvania has always been governed by Democrats. Even in Hiester's lime and Rit ner's lime, there was a Democratic Legislature. The power to make laws has always been in the hands of the Democratic parly. If, then, the Democrats are opposed to corporations, how has it happened that the whole State is flooded with these exclusive grants and monopoly priv ileges ! We will answer this testimony from the recoid of history. The Democratic party, in stead of onnosing. created them ! Every cor noration now existing in the State, will be found to have received the votes of a Democratic Ltfpislaiure if not signed by a Democratic O w Governor. J ' " Vermont. The Election in this "Green Mountain State," for Governor and Members of the Legislature, took place on Tuesday the 7th instant. Gov Eaton, the Whig candidate has a plurality of from 2500 to 3000 votes over his Loco Foco opponent. In the Legislature, the Whigs, it is thought, will have from 12 10 18 majorny- which will enable them to elect their State Of fricers, prouded there has been no choice by ihc people. Elaine Election.

The Bucks County Intelligencer says that a mine of Iron Ore has been, discov ered on ihe farm of Anthony Transue, in Dur ham township, in that County, and that it is apparently inexhaustible, and of the very best quaiity. Mr. Transue has leased it to a com pany, who will -immediately proceed to work it with effective force. The old Durham mines are also being worked to advantage. The Harmomons Democracy. " War to the JTnie" between the Skunkites and "One Termers" MEXICAN NEWS. Scott at ISic Capital Suspension of Hostilities, &c. We were put in possession on Saturday last, of an extra Ledger, which staled thafit had re ceived a telegraphic despatch to the effect that Gen. Scott after two engagements, had arrived at the Capital, and that a suspension of hostili ties had taken place with a view to the recep tion of Mr. Ttist's Peace propositions. 1 he foregoing statement would seem to be confirmed by the following letters which the Washington Union says were received at ihe War Depart ment in that city, from a highly Tespectable of ficer of the government : Vera Cruz, August 27, 1847. Sir : I have the honor and satisfaction to enclose you a copy of a letter 1 received last evening from a friend of mine, which can be depended on. 1 will not trouble you with speculations as to what will, in all probability, follow the event of the 20ih ; but 1 have no doubt in my own mind that it will be a conquered peace.

The guerrillas are said to have numbered 350. The fire commenced at haff past five o' clock, and lasted but a short time. At night tranquility prevailed in tbis city, and a party of mounted men from the train entered the city and passed through the principle streets. At the same time guerrillas were seen near by. The Bolclin says the loss on the side of the guerrillas was small. At eleven o'clock on the 19th Lally inquired of the Alcajde whether the ciiizens of Jalapa would commit hostilities a gainst the Americans if they entered, or not ; to which the Alcalde answered, that the popu lation was unarmed but that a number of guer rillas being in the neighborhood, he could not take the responsibilities of their actions.

The Locofoco presses, in iheir desperation at the foreshadowed defeat of Gov. Shunk in ihpir pnilf?nvor to arrest ihe tide of Gen. Ir- vin's popularity, are heaping the most mon strous falshoods upon the Whigs. A pili mountain high fills the columns of every Shunk oroan. amongst which is the charge that during the three years administration of Gov. Ritner, the Slate debt was increased to thirteen millions of dollars ! This atrocious falshood is reitera ted by the Pennsylvania Democratic Union, and all the small fry that imitate their yelp, regard less of the infamy and depravity that attaches to the retailers as well as the manufacturer. The shame of these are unblushingly spread before a community where every intelligent man detects the falsehood, for he knows that during Gov. Rimer's administration NOT ONE DOLLAR was added to the Stale debt, but on the contrary, that upwards of one hundred thou sand dollars of the debt that was incurred be fore he went into office was paid by him. These facts are on the records ; and they show lo what lengths the Locofoco organs will go in falsification to"continue iheir hold upon the fTl f .1 1 1 al.M.U..Mn treasury, l ne mousanu anu one inner iuhm of similar character, trumpeted forth with pa thetic appeals to the people to keep themselves I . iL - -kf f Pill It in power, nave uie same muijuiuuii ui uum, r -i ,. lit . t and are no more eniiuea to puonc respect, m their desperation they have over stepped the bounds of prudence, as ihey will find on the 2d Tuesday of October. city, wait for a reinforcement either from above or below.

The " Muncy Luminary" gives ralher an amusing description of the Lycoming County Locofoco Convention, whk-h met at Williams port. last week, which furnishes another evi dence of the "union and harmony" existing in ihe Loco ranks, and the "enthusiasm" that pre vails in favor of "old Shunk." The Conven lion, it appears, commenced wilh a row, and resulted in a regular "knock down and drag ont fight," with "ground and lofty tumbling by the whole company," and afforded considerable amusement lo a large number of good-natured Whigs who had been attracted to the house lo witness the sport. The first speaker who ad dressed the meeting was a little "balmy," as the saying is, and his remarks wero as scorch ing to the Shunkites as they were amusing to ihe Whigs. He pitched imp "old Hunkerism" like & thousand of bricks, declaring that " Shunk was a d-n-d rascal, and Irvin would defeat him!" 2?his alarmed ihe Shunkites, and ihey called for another orator, who made his appearance, but ihe firai speaker was determined not lo yield ihe floor. The scene that now ensued beggars all description.
