Our Ticket. A CA LL 'fo our Friends, and the Friends of JOHN BANKS. The election will soon be here; and the question is soon to be decided, whether David It. Porter and his horde of myr midons, are still to remain the plunder-, ers of the State Treasury 7 We feel it to be our duty, to call the attention of every man, who feels the ne cessity of immediate and complete re form, in the Administration of our State 'zovernment, to certain facts. OUR TICE ET Is headed by JOHN BANKS. A man, that, since his nomination, not one single breath of calumny has ever stained his same. All that know, or even knew him, with one exclamation, declare him to be an HONEST MAN--morally and polit ically. No man, no matter how base, has dared to cast one charge, disreputable to 11:3 character, before the public. His po litical opponents have, generally freely admitted that few, if any, were more en titled to the some of HONEST. This speaks volumes in his behalf. Would not every man who feels any interest in the success of the great Commonwealth, prefer to see him guidirig its destinies than his opponent 7 WHO IS THE OPPONENT? David R. Porter ! A man that you, fel low-citizens of Huntingdon County, KNOW to be as reckless as his master. Who cares not for any body or any means so Ins ends are accomplished ! You know him—your verdict has so pronounced him. A Jury of sour own county have said they did not believe his oath. The re-, cords of your own county, show that he has refused to pay an honest debt because it was too old to pay. They show that he has plead the STATUTE OF LIM ITA-, TioNs on the orphan children of Evan CRAIN. For what 7 For the wages of a hard working father. For wagoning' for the now princely nabob. We have , before, and we can again, show that he is' a Fraudulent Insolvent. A verdict in our court pronounced a man NOT GUIL TY, when he charged him with crimes that should send any man to the quiet cell of the Penetentiary. You know, yourselves, that he has pardoned Convic ted Thieves. That he has pardoned Horse Thieves before trial, and Hired Libellers of better men than himself. You know that he has vetoed law after law that the people demanded. You knew that he has selected, as the officers under him, men as devoid of principle or character, as they are reckless of what means they use to advance their master's ends. You, know and have seen these things ! and we ask an answer of you cn the 2nd Tues day of O:tober. What can induce ant honest man to vote fur him instead of John Banks 1 JOHN BIZOTII ERLINE Is our candidate for Sherift He is the regularly nominated candidate of the Harrison and antis Porter party in this county. Ile has been, since our acquain tance in this county, (more than six years,) one of the most active and devoted friends of our cause. At all times, under all cir cumstances, he has been found foremost in the contest. He is a poor man,•—one who ha's for years supported a widowed mother and orphan sisters. Calumny, and the vileness of party strife may brand him as a lazy office hunter; but we have only to say, that that son, that seeks all honest means to cheer the tottering steps of un aged mother down the steep decliv ty of life, deserves the friendship and welcome of every grateful heart. His only crime has been his too great anxiety for the support of his bereaved friends and kindred, anal his unrelenting and un wavering hostility to our opponents in this county. No political contest has found him halting between two opinions. He has always been first in the field and 'last in the 4ht ; and we for one are bound to say that such men deserve the support of their party and friends. if ho are his inset bitter opponents 7 A: e they not, we ask, those who have for years been the loudest brawlers agai ast all anti Masons and ft higs I //ow long is it since an attempt was made to indict him for being among the first to defend the purity of the ballot box from the assaults of the dupes and slaves of Porter, in Hol lidaysburg. "Thrice is he armed who has his quarrel just." Mr. Brotherline tri umphed over his foes ! Hence this un ceasing hostility to him, Therefore is lie to be the only victim on our ticket. Can you, friends, make yourselves one in the number to consummate an injury against such a friend? e trust not. It is said he was not fairly nominated ! We ask every man who was interested in the nom 'nation of any other man, did not you do all you could for that man ? Did not all his friends ? And did the friends of Mr. Brotherline do snore 1 Is there anything disreputable in that ? Is there any thing dishonest ? L; ill you lend yourselves to assist your enemies to exult over one of your most devoted friends ; simply, be cause lie is opposed by our opponents. 11 there is any one thing why we shall make. use of every exertion to secure his elec tion, it is because the Porter men are so very busy abusing him. If there is any thing which makes as persist more strong ly that he deserves the support of every man who opposes Porter—it is because ev ery one of Porter's men are the loudest in attempting to defeat his election. Their desire to see him beaten because they think he has been a thorn in their side, and if he is defeated he will be shorn of his locks and will no longer be in the way of their success, therefore they oppose him: and for the very same reason, IT IS THE DUTY of every friend of John Ilianks to sustain him. MA.I. JOHN SHAVER is the most prominent opponent of Mr Brotherline. He is the candidate of the bf orking Men (so called.) He is a member of the same party as Mr. Brotherline—is in every re spect, we believe, an honest and honora ble man, but no more so than Brotherline. lie is far more able to get along through 'this world without the office than Mr. Brotherline. He has the means of sup port ; and there are no suffering kindred leaning upon his arm for sustenance, and the common necessaries of life. Maj. Shaver is a working man, none will doubt. Is not Mr. Brotherline ? Is he not de• serving ? Does he not need the proceeds of the office? and lot us ask, does Maj. Shaver? We have but one cause of re-1 gret. It is this, that so worthy a man , would allow himself to become the instru inset in the hands of his own, heretofore, bitterest foes, to injure the cause of one of his own friends. The Loon Focos in our town call Maj Shaver THEIR CAN DID.ITE. If he be so, we are sorry to, see a man we so much respected. the can didate of men who have been the con stant revilers of himself, as well as our. self. If any thing would make US op- 1 , pose him, it is because we see the very men who have for years circulated the ha lest falsehoods against us, now claiming him as 711EIR WINDIDATE. Men who called the Ann-masons the vilest names, and pronounced us their hireling., brought from an Eastern Penetentiary— a released convict, to conduct the cause of Anti-masonry. At once saying that the Anti-masons of this county possessed neither honor nor honesty, and cared not how they succeeded. ?re say, it anything would make us oppose any living man it i Such then is our ticket, end we call on would be when we saw such men advo- every man who does not wish to lend his eating his cause. lie ask our friends it aid, to carry out the schemes of their old they wish to see such men triumph over and bitter fees, to examine carefully what us 7 we have said ; and make up their minds from the facts, whether they prefer to • see their friends defeated by the wiles of lan enemy who have for years tried to di- 1 vide and destroy us. Observe what we say ! Those men who Un•merly called you rascally Ants masons, and British Bank bought slaves ' are now tho men most interested in the workingman's ticket. Those who called I us their hired convict are its leaders here. Those who never spoke a respectful word of one of us now hug this ticket to thoir bosom as if it were a bantling of their own —we think it is. Some may think hon estly otherwise. We ask them do not be deceived. Vote the regular Ticket entire! IJohn Miles and S. S. Dense Are our candidates for Assembly. Mr. Miles needs no commendations of ours. Br. Dewey, is not as well known in the county as his colleague, but is none the less respected and loved for his intelli. gence and his integrity where he is known. We would ask of every man who is anx ious to see Pennsylvania take once more, her stand among the prosperous States in !the Union, whether it is not important that such men are sent as it is known can be useful. Men who if needs be can defend her interest by something more than the simple yes ! or no ? and are nut Mr. Miles and Dewey such men? and are they not ,every where in the county known for their intelligence, integrity and wo might add piety? Their Opponents Are Jesse Moore, and Thomas West on. Both of them men who have acted for years with the dominant party in this county, and we can safely say, both of them strictly honest, and in some re spects are the equals of those on our tick et. But we feel confident that they are not aware of all the facts attending their, case, or they would soon withdraw their names and support from a ticket, whose' loudest advocates were, and are yet their' bitterest toes! We would ask you gen tlemen, as well as you friends. Do you know that the leading and active oppo nents of John Banks are endeavoring to trade you oft for Brotherline—that they make bargains to vote for Miles and Dew ey, provided that they can get a man to vote against Brotherline—thus making you the victims of their schemes to destroy one of your former friends ; and at the same time they injure you. They are bold enough to say that they do not care if the members of the IVcrking-men's ticket are beaten if they can only brat John Brotherline. Remember then what we say, you are to be the victims on your ticket, frr no other purpose than to defeat Orotherline. Our Treasurer. A. 11. Hirst hi our candidate tor Trea surer. Is there any better man than him for the office ? and was not he nominated unanimously by the delegates of the peo ple? If so what cause, why an opposition to him should be made by his political friends? Let us explain. Mr. Hirst has acted with the minority party; and when they attempted to make him their slave, he spurned them and their counsel ; and if their is any thing in the whole matter, that shows the cloven foot of Porterisin in this Workingman's ticket, it is the op position to Mr. Hirst. The candidate a ,gainst him Mr. John Siva:mon, our neigh 'bor, is the ONLY LOCO FOCO on that ticket; and they hope to have an oppor tunity to break him down politically. This to WI is satisfactory evidence that the hand of Porter and his vacsals is in this matter. Their friends will turn out to vote for one of their party, when without some such incentive they would not vote for the working man's ticket. We say, that Porter and his:hired soldiers are at the bottom of this matter, else how does it happen that the only loco foco on that ticket happens to oppose the man, that Porter and his dupes most cordially hate. The cause is evident, Porter wants Hirst beat, and wants to say he was beat by a Loco foco; and then ea) lie has lost the confidence of both parties because HE deserted HIM. Cannot every man see this? Our Conaraiissioner Robert Moore is well known all over the county we might say; and there is none who know him, who do not ,accord to him the character of strict uprightness and capability. The citizens el this county, cannot but see the advantage or having a commissioner in our town. Fre quently business brings them to our town; and if the have any thing to do in the Commissioner's Office, when there is one of them a resident in town, their bu siness cam at all times be attended to. His opponent James Davis Esq. may be, and no doubt is, equally as good a man, but the importance of having one in town, seems to say that the election of Mr. Moore would prove of more advantage to the people. Our Auditor and Coroner Mr. Stitt, and Mr. Hudson, are mou well known in our county, and there are none who know them but say they are b mat and capa ble. CENTIVICATLS. Below we publish two certificates sent us by the citizens of 'The Big District," putting the brand of falsehood upon the many tales told of John Brotherline. We know where such tales originate. They are the paltry spite of our old foes, they are anxious to defeat Inui, because he has al• ways been so active in defeating them. The people of our county will recognize a 11. 9 1e second ti Yio of their friends among wa ngt s written, and the signers ' and the names obtained by .lion. Judge McCune, whose name heads the list. There are bat few people in the county who do not know the Judge. His own name would be a guarantee of the truth of , the certificate, and falseness of the tales., Will our friends be up and doing! and not let a worthy man be crushed by false hood. The undersigned, residents of Holli daysburg and vicinity (within the limits of what has been called the Big District), being neighbors and well acquainted for a number of years with JonN BROTUER LINE, the present regularly nominated can didate of the Harrison and Banks party, t - or the office of Sheriff of this county, have learned with regret and astonishment, that numerous false and slanderous re ports have been circulated in the lower end and some other parts of the county, injurious to the character of Mr. Brother. line; among others, that he is A GAMBLER, A MORSE-RACER, and BLACK LEO, A SPEC , . ULATOR, A LOAFER, and many others of a like nature. Such charges, if made and circulated against Mr. Brotherline, have' their origin and source in disappointed ambition, in private rancour, or in politi cal hostility, as WE KNOW THEM TO BE DESTITUTE OF . nuTra FOR THEIR FOUNDATION. We know his conduct and character as a man and a citizen has been EXEMPLARY and CORRECT. We knew that tor• the last eight years he has been the sole support of his widowed mother, and younger sisters and Mother, (constituting, for the greater portion of that time, a large family,) and supported the family for about two years before his father's death. If he is a gambler, a, horse-racer, and a blackleg, WE HIS IM MEDIATE NEIDUROItS have never known or heard of it. If he is a speculator, we, his intimate acquaintances, do not know and have nut heard of it; and we do know that if he ever was so, that the usual suc cess which is generally supposed to at tend speculators, has not been his, for he is, emphatically, A POOR naw. And Ida conduct in the discharge of his duties as a son from his youth to this time is an an swer to the other and similar charges.— We can concieve and know of no cause, private or political, to justffy or even palliate the slandering and persecuting a deserving man, in the manner we under. stand Mr. Brotherline is now SLANDER ED AND PERSECUTED.

TOE POOR LABORERS We imagine that there is nut a laboring man on the canal who has not been told during the summer, time and again, there was no money in the treasury. Some of them are now creditors to the State for months of herd labor, when their own families needed all of their hard earnings to get, oftentimes, the sieceasaries of life. We did believe that there was money; and we have often said so. A friend hasuob tained from the Treasury, at Harrisburg. the amount of money drawn, for repairs, since last November. It is important that the people know how their business is conducted. The following sums of mo ney have been dawn, at the dates as en, by Mr. Woods. 1840 N&v. 17 94 000 1841 Arril 19 1,000 " ae 2. 2,000 " July 14 2,433 s. 17 1,000 " Sept. 10 1,000 812,433 _ . A pretty little sum, indeed ! and no money ? More than one th . ottsand dollars a month. Money enough, alter taking his own pay out, to pay 40 daily laborers one dollar a day. Can any body imagine how this money has all been spent lies any one seen 40 hands on thirty miles of the canal ? It need not be said that it has been paid for Extraordinary Rapsirs ; because, if you will ask those who have built bridges, locks, &c., and they tikp the laborers will say, 1W /110iNEY ! We wish every man who works on the canal to say whether he has not asked fur money during the above 10 months, and has not been told no money I But, this is not all. During the months of June and July, he drew $5225 for old debts due before last November, making in all, nearly SEVENTEEN THOU SAND DOLLARS in ten months, and no money Joseph Ritor has handled sines June Bth. the snug sum of $20,080, and we pre sume, that he says too, no money ! This beats the ..Big Break"—They thaw the money out but do not pay their working-men. =.~-*
