Letter from the Attorney General
of Pennsylvania, on the Sub Sect
of the Gorsuch Murder.
We ask the attention of the public to the
subjoined lette4rom Thomas E. Franklin,
of Lancaster, Attorney General of the
Commonwealth, on the subject of the riot
and murder in. Lancaster county, and the
letters of the .Clergyman Gorsuch. No
drib who reads the communication, will
hesituto to say that Mr. Gorsuch has acted
in the most unchristian and uncharitable
manner, and that Gov. Johnston did his
duty in the case - .=—Gov. Johnston did not
immediately offer a reward for the appre
heilsion of the murderers, because rewards
are never offered until the ordinary means
of making arrests are exhausted. The
money of the people is not to be uselessly
thrown away by the Executive. It is to
be judiciously used; and not lavished upon
officers, whose duty requires them to act
without the incentive of a reward.
The letter of Mr. Frankling is contain
ed in' the Lancqster Tribune of the 30th of
September :
LETTER OF ATTORNEY GENERAL
FRANKLIN.
To the Editor of the Union and Tr:-
bone,
Sir :—ln a letter dated the 18th inst.,
addressed to Governor Johnston by the
Rev, .T. S. Gorsuch, of Washington, which
the writer thought fit to publish without wai
ting for any reply or explanition, he as
sailed the Governor in the most vindietive!
terms, and imputed to him and to me in
activity and gross dereliction of duty in
regard to the murder of his father near
Christiana. In a subsequent card, dated
the 25th inst., lie retracts and apologizes
for his charges against me, but takes oc
casion to re-affirm his offensive imputations
upon the Governor.
I cannot consent to be placed in a differ
ent position in reference to this matter ,
from Governor Johnston, uponconsultal
tion with whom all the steps have been ta
ken consequent upon the lamentable af
fair, and in pursuance of whose suggestion
I took part in the investigation. If, as
the writer now acknowledges, I have prov
ed my loyalty to the Constitution and laws,
and my zeal for the vindication of public
!justice, the Governor is also entitled to the
credit which belongs to him, of having
placed it in my charge as a matter of prilyH
lie duty.
The course pursued by the Rev. Mr.
Gorsuch has boon most extraordinary, and
a reference to the dates of the transactions
may of brd some clue to the motives which
hive actuated and the influences which
have prompted it.
. The murder of Mr. Edward Gorsuch
took place on the morning of Thursday
the 11th inst. A number of arrests hav
ing been made of persons suspected of
participation in it, a hearing of the ease
was fixed before Alderman Roigert for
Tuesday, the 10th inst., at 11 o'clock, A.
M. At the time appointed I appeared in
behalf of the Commonwealth, prepared
to assist in taking part in the investigation.
The Rev. Mr. Gorsuch was then present ;
I was made acquainted with him; lie was
apprised of my connexion with the case,
and I had considerable conversation with
him on the subject. In consequence of
the absence of witnesses, the hearino• ' was
postponed to Tuesday, the 23d. After
the postponement Mr. G. wont down to
Christiana.where he wrote a letter which
has been extensively published, dated Sept.
17th, containing a pretty correct and fair
statement of the facts; and giving credit
to the public authorities for doing every
thing necessary to bring the transaction
to light and the offenders to justice. Ho
then proceeded to his residence at the city
of Washington, and there, on the next day,
the 18th, indited the letter which contains
the injurious imputations I have alluded
to. Whether the writer could in the
meantime have acquired any additional
information which could have induced the!
entire change of tone, temper and feeling,
from that which characterized his letter of,
the previous day, or whether it is.not more!
probable that ho was subjected to the evil,
instigation of some determined and un-,
scrupulous political enemy of the GoVern
or,. I leave to the public to deter Mine—
. publication induced no change in my
course on the second hearing. From a
sense of personal dignity, however I a
voided as much as possible, any inter-',
H
course with the Reverend gentleman, who
seemed so entirely devoid of christaiu feel- 1 !
ing and to have so far lost sight of his'ob-1
ligations to his fellow mon as that publi
cation showed ; and his retraction of the
26th inst. could not have been prompted,
by any thing which occurred on the see-1
end hearing. This statement will enable
the public to judge of the conduct of Mr.
Gorsuch and of those who have used!

Seth Clovei and hi 4 brother Levi.
One great objection to the election of
Seth Clover, is his utter incompetency.—
Another is that his associations are with
dishonest men. Levi who controls Seth
is a great rogue. Ho was collector at
•Pittsburg a year or two ago, and is now a
defaulter to the State. If Seth be elected
Canal Commissioner, he will of Courge
provide for Levi, so that the latter may
have another chance to rob the public
Treasury. We present below at lengh,
the facts in the case, which we find in the
Uniontown Democrat, credited to the
Waynesburg Messenger—a Locofoco pa
per. It says :
"It appears, then, that there were some
half a dozen flat or market boats that vis
ited Pittsburg twice a week during canal
navigation, running from twelve to twen- '
ty-one miles, and paying toll in propor
tion to the distance, and the tonnage or
amount of load and number of passengers
carried. These boats pass no other of
fice, and consequently there is no cheek
upon the Collector, so they can, at very
short notice, foot it up and see the exact
amount paid. Four of these captains, on
being appled to, furnished certificates of
the amount of toll paid by them in the
yedr 1849, to which they hold themselves'
in readiness too be qualified as follows :
Capt. S. Thompson, (certificate)
`• J. Henderson, "
" Adam feed,
" James Boyd,
" Wilson, (estimated)
" Crendy,
" Now of this $861,84 collected of these
market boats, what amount will our hon
est readers suppose was entered on the
books of the office. and paid into the cof
fers of. the State ? Why just two hun
dred and fifty-four dollars and fifty-five
cents.
ThlIE the mount collected wee $561,84
Paid to the credit of the State 254,55
Unaccounted for, the sum of
" This would bo sufficient, we suppose,
but we will go a little farther with our
'testimony.' There were a couple of
firms in the stone business; Messrs. J. &
H. Forrester and James Earsemau, who
had quarries about a dozen miles above
Pittsburg, and boated their stone to town
by the way of the canal. They hold re
ceipts and certify to the following pay
ments in 1849 ;
Jamc3 Eel-seinen, (2 receipts)
J. & 11. Forrester,
Making the sum of $123,90
"How much of this do the farmers of
Greene county suppose waspaid over to
the State ? Why NOT ONE CENT ! !
Positivoly not one farthing of this
money is accounted for on the books of
the office as would have been proven if
the matter had been investigated.
c , There are other faCts just as glaring,
that could have been produced, suoh as
the salt boats, the iron boats, &c., which
would show an astounding sum total ; but
we think this partial exhibit of one year
out of the three will answer our purpose
to day, and will satisfy all that the peti_
tioners meant what they said when they
asked the Legislature to order an investi
gation. Just look at the two items we
have produced:
The Market Boats show a deficiency
of
The Stone Boats .
Making the sane of
Hero then is the proof that the brother
of Seth Clover has swindled the State out
of at least $731 19 ! ! We do not hold
Seth responsible for the misconduct of his
brother Levi: Wo would not 130 so un
generous. But Levi exercises a control
ling influence over Seth, and would doubt
less control his movements in the Canal
Board. It is on account of the danger of
having in the Cenal Board a pliant tool df
so dangerous e mat' as Levi G. Clover,
that we present these facts. Let the peo
ple ponder over them, and then determine
whether the public interests will not bo
best promoted by electing to this impor
tant office, Honest John Strohm, against
whose competency and entire purity of
character no man can utter a syllable.
frr We learn from our exchanges that
the prospects of the Whigs in the Western
part of this State are cheering in the high
est degree.—johnston will cross the Al
legheny with a majority that will com
pletely annihilate the opposition. The
news from the North and Northmvegt itt
equally flattering, and JohnstoYf's vote will
be increased in many counties, while oth
ers will be completely revolutionized.—
Our news is cheering and ne mistake.—
Keep the fire burning! Keep the ball
moving'
NUMBER 39.
A Neutral Paper's Testimony About
GiAv. Johnston's Letter.
The Sunday Dispatch, published in
Philadelphia, had in• its number dated
Sept, 21st, an article on the oorrespon.
&nee between Mr. Cadwallader and Gov..
Johnston. After referring to the time and
manner in which the letter was sent to the
Governor, the Dispatch says :
The Governor received it with gladness.
It gaVe him a splendid opportunity to ward
off the attempted check by a very success
ful countercheek. He immediately pre
, pared an answer, which was a complete
"crusher." The memories of the appell
ants were refreshed by a recapitulation of
facts. They were informed of the arrests
which were made by the State authorities,
and that so far from there being any insur
rection, not a single person engaged in the
affair was to be found standing out in,op-
I •
!positton to the laws. The people of Lan
caster county were vindicated from the im
putations cast against them. Gov. John
ston requested the cooperation Of the ap
pellants in maintaining the law—and sin
cerely thanked them for the opportunity
which they had afforded him of expressing
his views. Taken all in all, the letter of
the Governor is a remarkable production, s
triumphant vindication of himself and the
State authorities, and a perfect demolisher
of the transparent device of Messrs. Cad
wallader & Company.
The Dispatch continues :
The masses of the Democratic party
cannot feel very thankful to the "leaders,"
who so officiously undertook to misrepre
sent them in the "appeal." The effect of
that ill-considered "State paper" have
been to strengthen Gov. Johnston, in
Philadelphia, AN LEAST TWO THOU
SAND VOTES. 'The Governor has been
!so successful in his demolition of the "ap
pellants" that many who were opposed to
him have changed their views, in admira
tion of his "spunk," and arc now deter
mined to vote the whole ticket and forget
their former objections. Thus has the
cause of Democracy been. greatly prejudi
ced by six or eight persons,wno without
any authority whatever rem the party
they usual° to represent, have placed the
Democrats in a false position. By an ill
advised and foolish movement, they have
seriously prejudiced not only the Guberna
torial, but the city and county ticket.
Such is the testimony e: a neutral phper.
Couldn't Forney, Cadwallader & Co.,
manufacture some more capital for Gov.
Johnston? Give them rope and they will
hang themselves. Whom the Gods wish
to destroy, they first make mad."

I cannot believe that the earth is man's
abiding place. It cannot be that our life
is cast up by the ocean - of eternity to float
for a' moment on its waves and sink to
nothingness ! Else why is it that the glo
rious ,aspirations which leap like angles
from the temple of our hearts, are forever
wandering about unsatisfied ? Why is it
that the rainbow and the cloud come' over
us with a beauty that is not of earth, then
pass off and leave us to muse upon their
faded loveliness ? Why is it that the
stars who hold their festivals arotind the
midnight throne aro sent above the grasp
of,limited faculties,• forever mocking us
with their unapproaohing glory ? And fi
nally, why is it the bright forms of human
beauty aro presented to our view and then
taken from us, leaving the thousand
streams of our affections to flow back in
Alpine torrents upon the heart? We are
bOrn' for a higher world than that of the
earth; there is a realm where rainbows nev
er fade—where the stars will be out before
I lus, like islets that slumber on the ocean ;
land whore the beings that pass before us
like shadows; will stay in our presence for
ever.

paper, confirms the report of an outrage,
at Nlount Carbon, on GrOvernor. , Johnston
and party, in theTellOwing paragraph
Villanous Outrage,--On monday night
last between 12 and 1 o'clock, on the ar
rival of Governor Johnston and a party of
friends at the Movnt Carbon Depot, from
the meeting at Tamaqua,
some miscreants
taking advantage of the darkness attacked
them with stones, clubs, and other missiles.
A:number of the gentlemen wore struck
and somewhat injured, though none' of
them, as we arc much gratified to learn,

punishment that would be adequate to so
cowardly and villanous up outrage.

Loodoco candidate for President Judge in
