    new offices—calling extra Sessions—and
finally increasing the state debt; all of
which wicked deeds, he has done himself;
and others, that they may show him that if
they be not Governors, they are as good
men as he o'er was, and perhaps, indulge
in a curse or two, by way of illustrating
his sycophancy and hypocrisy.
It is all vanity! He is a politician! In
that significant title, it is all told. At
first a politician from necessity; next a pol
itician for the spoils; and lastly a politician
for power. Practice has made him a pro
ficient in the science; the science of de
cieving your friends; cheating your eneo l ,
mies, and riding into office and power, by 1
the joint exertions of both; for this is the '
science of politics. Find me a politician,
and we miss our guess if lie is not ready
to overeach his dearest bosom friend; co- 1
logne with his bitterest foe; and decieve
them both, provided, it facilitates his rise
in the scale of patronage or power. Such
are politicians of all parties. Governor
Porter is a politician! and [though he
meels you with "is it well with thee to-day
my brother;" 'Cs but the "gold leaf and
gilding" of politics, and every honest man
must admit it.
Let the honest of all parties remember
what we say, and mark in the progress Of
their life, if what we say is not true. We
do nut wish to exculpate our own party.
There are politicians among it—and they
are no more honest than others. They are
all alike. How many talked of fhlr course
last fall, as all electioneering trash! Fol
itical falsehoods!! And why is it that truth'
is not known from falsehood, because pol
iticians will pronounce, (as in our case)
the plainest facts, the vilest falsehoods;
and vilest falsehoods the plainest facts.
Our motto has been, he that is honest
in morals, is honest ;n politics. He that
is dishonest in politics, is dishonest in
morals. Let those who love the truth
treasure it up.
Plunder Fund.
The Canal Commissioners of the pres
ent Administration, it seems have asked
fur nearly TWO MILLIONS of an ap
propriation for repairs, for this year!
More than twice at much as it ccst Rit
ner's administration during THREE
YEARS. This ,is the Reform! This is
the economy of the new administration,
which complained so loudly of the pro
digality of their predecessors. Last year
a Loco Foco legislature allowed only
8280,000 for repairs. This year their
canal board demand SIX TIMES AS
MUCH! and this they call reform!
Three years aco they said Ritner had in
creased officers, and deserved the curses
of every honest man. Now they have
more than doubled the number latterly
under Rittmer, and they call this Reform!
This is the boasted Reform! gonest far
mers how do you like it?
But the plunder fund! we had almost
forgotten that part of our story. They
want money for electioneering purposes!
They must and will have it! They al
ways had! & cannot now do withoutit;
and the plan they propose is this:—They
charge the officers under Ritner, with lea
ving IMMENSE Debts unpaid, no matter
whether theme be an ounce of truth to a
pound of falsehood! If they find any
debts due, they say the amount is as large
as they think will cover the amount of
plunder needed to carry en elections; and
then call for the whole. Thus it is said
that Porter's officers on the Columbia
Rail Road say there is twenty thousand
old debts, while in fact there are but two
or three. We hesitate not in saying the
same plan is pursued everywhere, in order
to make up the demand fur the TWO
MILLIONS. They will then scatter
their plunder with prodigal hands. Not
"here a little and there a little"—but here
a great deal aad there more. Let the
people look to it! There is no honest rea
son why Gov. Porter's officers should
need six times as mach money to carry on
the public works, as did their predeces
sors. They say the works are out of re
pair—filled up here, and broken down
there—but that is all humbug. Go by the
canal, and you will see as many and as
heavy loaded boats passing as ever. The
truth is the canals and rail roads are now
in as good repair it not better than they
have ever been since erected. Let the
people watch the movements of these .
bawlers for reform, and they will find that
they are the plunderers, who like the pick
pocket joins the hue and cry, and halloes
"stop thief!"
O:7We hope our frinds will not forget
the meeting on Tuesday. If they have
any love for the old hero left; they must at
tend.
Pennsylvania Legislature.
In the Senate on Saturday, the day was
l again spent in discussing the pay of the
troops. Mr. Penrose it is said, made one
of the most eloquent speeches. ever listen
ed to in that Hall. It was in reply to the
new Loco Foco, but old Federal senator
from Lycoming.
In the House, after the loss of the six
million bill, they tried to get up another
smaller one, which was forced through its
various readings and sent to the Senate.
In the Senate on Monday, they passed
la bill to incorporate the Huntingdon and
[Hollidaysburg rail-road. In the House,
they did nothing but pass some private
and local bills of small importance:
On Tuesday, the Senate appointed a
committee to examine into the condition
'of the Lumberman's Bank—and they
'passed ANOTHER Loan bill from the
House, which had been passed the same
morning.
The Senate on Saturday refused to ad•,
vise or consent to the nomination of A.
11. Read, as President Judge, in the
room of Judge Eldred, removed to Erie
district. A most righteous decision. Mr.
Read is in no respect qualified to be cloth
ed with the Judicial ermine, neither by
tallents, acquirements or any thing else.
He is a Politician in the vilest sense of
the word.

Correspondence of the Boston Atlas.
STATE HOUSE AUGESTA,
Monday, March, 25, 1839.
Our Legislature adjourned this morning
at seven o'clock , sine die. A few bills
'that had been previously acted on were
finally passed. The vote of thanks to the
President of the Senate was offered by Mr
Belcher. In the House, Mr. Allen of
'Bangor, offered the vote of thanks to the
[Speaker.
So far as political parties are eoncer
ned, our Legislature has separated in very
good humor. The loco locos have car-'
ried home considerable bitterness of fee-'
ling toward each other, growing out of
their quarrels about the spoils of victory.:
But few measures of public interest have'
been acted on during the session. The
measures adopted in relation to the north
eastern boundary have been the exciting
subject of the session. !
The Cumberland and Oxford troops.
that have been here for the last few weeks
I learn, are to be sent home to-morrow, to
be dismissed. I also understand that a
part of the troops that are now stationed
on the Aroostook, will be discharged in a
few days. A sufficient number only to
be retainnd to protect the timber that has
been seized on that river. Our Madawas
ka war may theirefote be considered as
ended.
Porto Rico papers received at N. Or
leans give the particulars of the disasters
which happened at St. 'Lucie, in conse
quence of the late earthquake which was
felt in almost all the French Attalla isl
ands, The commotion is said to have con
tinued more than thirty seconds, and even
all the houses built of freestone have suf
fered more or less damage. The paroch
ial church of Castries, an edifice remarka
hie for its beauty and strength, has been
thrown down in many places. The iron
cavern known by the name 'of the casern
of Moms Fortune, bears the marks of the
shock; and most of the pavilions in which
the officers dwelt, are uninhabitable. The
town of La Sou ffuere has also suffered con
siderably. The belfry of the church has
fallen, and most of the houses have been
overthrown. The total losses amount to
a considerable sum.
STEAM PACKET NEW YORK BURICT.-
-Oil Friday last, this elegant new steam
! packet, commanded by Capt. Stone, and
owned by Nevins, Townsend & Co., was
burned to the water's edge, while lying as
the wharf at New Haven, Conn. Shr•
was to have started that morning for New
York, and had a large quantity of freight
on board, which, with the boat, was esti
mated at 90,060 dollars—partly insured.
It has not been ascertained whether the
fire proceeded from accident or design.
The New York is said to have been one
of the fastest and best boats belonging to
New York city, and was worth at least
$50,000. No insurance.
