W. 14/o, no—they didn't tell you
though they knew it well. They fill , d

with names and words, an I led you
astray with prejudices and passions.
NI. But why should they deceive us?
W. Why. chtesn"t Bancroft get $5QOn

Formerly, before this cry of democracy
—before these Ilalletts, and Itantouls,
and Bancrofts filled your head with their
humbugs—every thing went well with us
You were then a happy man, and I a hap
py wife. Our children were then well
ted and well clothed. Every year we ad
ded a little to our furniture; it I wanted
a new gown you always gave it to me,
and you paid 8100 a year to reduce the
mortgage. You was industrious and
cheerful—your face was always pleasant
to me—your voice was always pleasant!
to me—your voice was always kind to to
the children. Those days are gone. I
mourn ~ usband, bat I do not reproach
you. You have your cares, and I know
your heart is right. But how has this
change come about?
M. I think I must ask you.
W.—well, then, I will tell you my o
pinion. I think you with too many oth—
ers in the country have been grossly cheat
ed and deceived. A set of men who on
ly wished to enjoy power and office, and
spoils, have been entrusted with the reins
of government, and they have driven us
over a precipice. We only suffer with
the rest of the country--thousands and
thousands are as bad off as we.
M. Well w.fe, I am afraid that you are
right; bat what can t do?
tt . . You can 11,, two things. The first
is to forsake those mhu
—to withdraw your confidence from a set
of false prophets and !rise guides—men
who use you only to abuse you.
M. Anti what next shall I du?
IV. First tell me whether you will do
as I request?
M. I never buy a pig in a poke. Tell
me what it is you propose, and if it's rea
sonable, I'll do it.
W. Vote for OLD TIP!
%I. I thought it was coming to that!
—well, there's no danger in trying a
change. Here it goes—Hurrah for Har
rison and better film's!!!
To the Democratic Harrison
Party of Pennsylvania.
FeLL'iw CITIZEN 3 —The undersigned,
with unfeigned joy, congratulate you on
the glorious result of the struggle which
has just terminated! As tar askscer4-ilin
ed, it is indeed most cheering. That the
voice ot Pennsylvania would, at the ap
proaching Presidential Election, he for
Harrison and Tyler, no one who knows
he patriotic teefings of her suns, could
for a moment doubt. But that, with so
little concert of action for, and so little
interest manifested in the Election which
has just taken place, that election show
beyond (location a majority against the
corrupt p irty tt at now misrules, is as un
expecte.: as it is decisive. Irrepressible,
indeed, must be the spirit, and unaltera
ble the determination of the true Demo
cracy of the Keystone Slate, when it
thus, in advance ot the real day of trial,
sends forth its voice of thunder to tell to
the sigoer states that Pennsylvania, haw
overpaid her gratitude to one gallant
d,fender of the country, now hastens to
reward another and no less distinguished.
That this is not mere assertion, but so
ber truth, the following facts will show:
In 1836, the majority of Martin Van
Buren over Gen Harrison in this state
was 4,364. At the Election which took
pace tyi the 13th inst. in 9.4 counties,
r),-,intr, all that ha' e yet been heard from,
and in wild' both panties ran tickets, tie
rain rm. Ger. Harrison since 1836 is 5,•
7.19. Thus, in less than one hall the
state the majority of 1816 is al realy mine'
than annihilated: Be it re e ibred, to .1
that none of the western coantics ittvt
vet beet he,rd from—that glorious wes •
w ach known and will sustaid her earliest
an 1 truest fi mend.
At the election fir members of Coo
grhss in 1838, ele , en Democrats and six

Gen. Harrison have, at least, glee ed

Let every Freeman who is anxious to have his vote count for "01.1 Tip," count the

and no more or the ticket is lost.

That there are not some of the names of Loco Focos fraudulently printed on our
ticket. That party always charge us with printing fradulent tickets, when they
know it is not true. "Of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaketh," and they

UNKIND.
"That was the most unkindest C VT of all,"
Never have we noticed a case where ,
the friends of a defeated candidate, have.
with such unkindness, pursued the popu
larity of a broken down candidate, as
• ave the supporters of "Arthur P.
son" in this district. He was the "krach"
nag of their party before the election—
now he is, according to their own words,
the most unpopular man in their party,
It is on every tongue, that "he was toa
unpopular to succeed, but if we had got
any other candidate we would have beat
you easy," That is a very sly way of
knocking a man on the head; but we a
gree, "Arthur'' vas not wcrry populace."
The "Advocate" says he was defeated
on account "of the heavy vote polled a•
gainst him in H untingctm county." Says
the Judge, says he, "that's a fact Wea
ver." 11 Arthur did pledge to his
friends in Centre, that hu could not be
beaten 400 in this county, it would not do.
Like the rest of his party, he never re
deemed his pledge.
It was unkind of the i'lyured Into.
cent" to come here to a jollification be
fore he knew that "it was a sure thing."
John Snyder was not here this time.
NVe always knew that Arthur was nivel)
ular, and was "a used up man"—but it,
is very unkind of his own friends to say
they knew it too. It is possible that he
milet have got a long a little better if h e
had not ran with his honest uncle on his
back. The people of this county think
they know him.
The Result-•so fir.
We have kept our readers thus far ac
quainted with the result. Since our last
statement, Maryland, Georgia, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, have ad
ded their doings to the record.
We now fur the last time, publish the
long and glorious catalogue of the victo
ries of the people. Their shouts have)
in truth been heard from Maine to Geor-1
gia, and every where they have rebuked
the minions of power, and the corrup. ,
tions of party.
The list we here publish, should be .
borne in mind, is only of those Sta•es
which have held elections since Harrison's
nomination. They have spoken expressly
upon the point at issue; and one State
after another has dropped away from the
support of the arch intriguer of Kinder
hook. Every wind from the cast, the
west, the north, or the south, brings us
the joyful tidings of another victory tor
the sage and the warrior.

Poutsyi va ilia has held her election, but
Van Buren—m hen the truth is, 700 be•
how that ; and with such returns, they
try to derieve their friends.
So far as we are concerned, we Gel
certain that no man could, with all the
official returns before him, make a cor
rect estimate of the popular vote ; or it he
could, the majority would be but small.
We are willing to concede all the majori
ty there may be, to Mr. Van Buren; and
then let us try Pennsylvania by "old
Tip's" ra le in 1836. At the October
election in that year, the Legislative tick
ets of the Van Buren party were elected
by a majority of 20,000, in the popular
vote. In four weeks alter, old Tip put
led that majority down mote than 15,100,
,which proves that "old Tip" is the 15,-
COO votes more popular than any ticket of
hisflieuds. There is no reason why the
same will not be the result this year—
we think it will be a little more so. We
consider Pennsylvania as the only doubt
ful State in the Union,—we shall not
claim it yet, nor can our opponeros, with
'any better grace.
We look tiFoa this system of figuring
out election returns to delude the people,
as a kind of forgery, and deserving the
censure of every honest man. Ile shall
publish no list of the popular vote, satisfi
ed that none that is correct can be ob
tained, and no other will we give.
The other States
which have not voted, we will place be
low ; in order that any man anxious to
learn the truth, can draw his own deduc•
lions. The States recorded above, as we
said before, have all held their elections
since Harrison's nomination ; and those
there set down, have spoken loudly and
plainly on the subject of the Presidency.
Already has General Harrison the con.
(went certainty of 146 Lied
voles, within two of enough to elect
him ; and can any man donbt that he will
get inure than too more, out of the States
yet to vote? Let us look at the list. We
will set them down as we think they will
vote for Pa esideut.

or Michigan, both certain. Or Massa
chusetts, inure than enough ; or Tennes
see, without either New York or Penn
sylvania. Is not this sufficient to satisfy
the must doubting?--and more especially
when it is equally certain that he wits
carry all the others given to him above.
We want any reasonable Van Buren
man to show us wherein we have erred,
as it regards the States where elections
have been held. There is not one error.
—not even Maine, for we have a consid
erable majority of the popular vote on the
