Harrison Men Of Huntingdon County, do you wish to record your voices in favor of the nomi nation of the old war worn veteran, W. Harrison P If you do, remember that much depends upon your vote today. Let Pennsylvania tell her tale of wrong on next Tuesday, as we feel assured she will. Then old 'rip is placed upon a command ing eminence. To your posts then, every man of you —To your posts, and tell the world that you are already in the field for that man who never lost a battle; and like him you will never leave it till victory crowns your exertions. Awake ! arouse ! or the Philistines will be upon you. They are straining every nerve to show that Harrison is not the choice of the people. They fear his nomination. Be up and doing—To the polls, and record your vote early for the Democratic HARRISON TICKET. Which Is 'The Democratic TICKET? Is John Cresswell Esq. a Democrat ask some of the old blue light•, they will tell you that he scorns the name. Is Adolphus Patterson a Democrat 7 Not exactly—you cannot manufacture a Democrat out of such rank and blue skin material. Trtistee, Is Daniel Massey a Democrat 7 Go up into Barree and ask any old Democrat of that township if lie ever was a Democrat, and they will tell you NO ! Not one of them were, or are Democrats—They are disappointed, or renegade Federals--ti r med Loco Focos. Can you find such kind of Democrats on the Harrison ticket, or do you find the pure chips of old Democratic blocks who have ever been and still remain firm to the rights of the people—Compare both ickets, and then vote for the Democrats. Look out: For Indians. Our readers will no doubt recollect, the inceasing cry that was kept up about the canal hands voting at the last election. rhe friends of Mr. Porter proclaimed it outrage upon the resident inhabitants that those laborers were allon•ed to vote. We always said that the party now in power, would practice all the knavery (hey had learned from the previous admin istration, and all that there own ready minds could conceive besides. It seems that we were right. Tt.ey were horror stricken last fall, that men were allowed to vote who toiled all the summer in the county, —that was an outrage. Now we have the Improved system, about to be put in operation. There are no repairs going on now. There is nothing which can pos sibly call together many hands. But the party now in power improving on what they learnt last fall now introduce then► without any thing for them to do. On one day:last week a wordy member of Porter's suite, entered upon the asses sors book 92 LOCO FOCO VOTERS, of the real stamp True blue, and may be willing to take their oaths after the style of Porter himself, in order to obtain their votes. —Some of them are known to have families residing out of the county or township—and that (Ley may learn exact ly their position; and the certainty of de tection we have given below the pains and penalties to winch some of them will sub ject themselves. Let them not step blind ly into that which they might regret. Let them not be enticed by any of the office seeking gentry to place themselves ob noxious to the law and its penalty—the prison cell. Penultypr fraudulently voting ST. "If any person, not by law qualified, shall fraudulently vote at any election within this Commonwealth, or being oth erwise qualified shall vote out of his pro per district, or if any person knowing the want of such qualification shall aid or ro. cure such person to vote, the persons or person so offending, shall, on conviction, be fined in any sum nut exceeding two hundred dollars, and be imprisoned for any term not exceeding three months." "If any person shall vote at more than one election district, or otherwise fraudu lently vote more than once on the same day, or shall fraudulently fold and deliver to the inspector two tickets together, with the intent to illegally vote, or shall vote the same, or if any person shall advise and procure another so to do, he or they so:offending, shall on conviction, bs fined ii4any sum not less than fifty nor more than live hundred dollars, arid be impri soned for any term not less than three, nor more than twelve months." "It any person not qualified to vote in this Commonwealth, agreeably to law, (except the sons of qualified citizens) shall appear at any place of election for the purpose Of issuing tickets or influencing the citizens qualified to vote, he shall, on conviction for feit and pay any sum not exceeding one hundred dollars for every such offence, and be imprisoned for any tern. not ex ceeding three months," Here then are the provisions of the new law for such as are anxious to vote out of their district—and for those who procure such votes. We advise every one con cerned to move with caution in this mat ter. They will all be called upon to swear that they hare resided in the dia• !rid for more than ten days before the elec tion—that it is their bona fide residence— that they did not mmove into it for the purpose of voting. This, if we mistake not, will cut cff many of the ninety Iwo. not only from a vote here, but loose their vote altogether as their absence from home must destroy their right to vote, unless they return. There are undoubtedly hundreds of such men strung along the canal in this county. For Mr. Porter and his tools are anxious to escape the ignominy that must attend the opinion of a jury of the whole people upon the verdict of 12 of their number. This is the mighty struggle—every timing which knavery can invent and villiany carry into effect, to accomplish this result. will be resorted too. 'Tis the forlorn hope of Porter to redeem his character. He does not desire any further court tri als. Now if his active agents can gather every cosmopolite, and detain them in this county till the election, and by so do ing they can carry this county, then hur rah! for the perjured jury once more! But they will foil, signally fail ! Old Huntingdon will record her name on the side of an insulted and injured people. She tell her frier da that she is disgraced not honored by thepresent Gov ernor. Ike earnestly call on all our friends to keep a sharp look out for the loco motive Loco Focos, and make them .10//w in the footsteps" of their master, and swear through the mill if they dare. As we doubt not that man• of these moving voters are of the same twill as a the "dog keepers" of Harrisburg; it ma not be amiss to publish another section t the Law. That our readers throughoL the county may know exactly their por er over them, if they attempt to show o any of their pugnacious propensities o the election ground. "if any person shall prevent or attemF to prevent any officers of an election ur der this act from holding such election, c use, or threaten any violence to any off cer, or shall interrupt or improperly inter fere with him in the execution of his dut er shall block up the window or avenue t any window were the same may be holt! en, or shall riotously disturb the peace t such election, or shall use or practice an intimidation, threats, force or violent with design to influence unduly, or over awe any elector, or to prevent him from voting, or to restrain the freedom of choic su. h person on conviction shall be fine in any sum not exceeding five hundrt dollars, and be imprisoned for any tin not less than one or more than heel , room he, and if it shall be shown to the coo where the trial of such offence shall I had, that the person so offending was n. a resident of the city, ward, district township, where the said offence was con mitted, and not entitled to vote thereii then on conviction, he shall be sentence to pay a fine of not less than one hundra nor more than one thousand dollars, nr be imprisoned not less than six months n.. more than two years. That the citizens can know what pow. they have over such interlopers, as mi have been introduced into their township we make the annexed extract from tl law. Read it, understand it, and put in force. "In all cases where the name of tI person claiming to vote is not found t the list furnished by the co►nmissioners assessor, or his right to vote whether four thereon or not is objected to by any qual fied citizen, it shall be the duty of the i specters to examine such person on oa as to his qualifications, and if he claims have resided within the state for one ye: or more, his oath shall be sufficient pro thereof, but he shall make proof by least one competent witness, who she be a qualified elector, that Ite,has reside within the district for more than ten tie next immediately preceding said electio and shall also himself swear that his bent fide residence, in pursuance of his law!' call:ng, is within the district, and that I did not remove into said district for ti purpose of voting therein." The law gives you a right to object, st their oaths are not any proof that thi have resided ten days in the townshi They must prove it by COMPETEN WITNESS. The Investigation. The object of the canal investigation now made manifest. Far weeks when tt Venango Treasurer was here holding Ii inquisition, no one could team whi was to be done with the testimony; a though, we suspected, it was intended, t a kind of election Hobby.—Upokwkch r. should see, all kinds of siding, just whe there would be no time to contradic Then, with an ounce of truth they woo! compound a ton of falsehood, and retail as all gospel. It is true, that Dr. Esp . on his honor declared that it was not ii tended for any such purpose. We the hinted, that an oath of that kind would 1 like a bawd swearing by her virtue. Tt secret is out ! Their Papers are groanit under the weight of evidence produce And we last week stated, that whatlwas g eti to the world as the statements of Wk taker and Steel, we were prepared to pro , downright wicked and malicious L's'lN( Notwithstanding this they have the bas ness to again publish them as the truth Dr. Espy gave both those gentlemen cer: tied copies of their evidence. And the certificates prove that those who surrour the "Adi orate" have willlullyforged tho. certificates. That all their puteltshed a fidavits of the same coinage we doubt no Except Jimmy McCauley, who they sa proves that McMurtrie took plank ;for h o wn use. Now in the name of commc sense, is there a man in this town believ. that Jimmy can prove . any thing ? No no! 'That is a little to., strong. W have not forgotten what Judge Burnsk said of his testimony in court—"l dot, believe one wcrd he swears." We shall not attempt to travel throug all the lies and lumber they have intr duced into their paper. It bears with the evidence of its own falsehood and intended solely to destroy James Stee and thus if possible secure Porter's old o fices to his very faithfully and loving brotl er in the communion of that old Harlot the lodge, John Cresswell Esq. It was a obtained and is sow printed to injure M Steel. But we feel confident that eve' friend of Jas. Steel will see in this, cau for renewed exertion in his behalf.
