James MeSherry, Esq. COMMISSIONER GEORGE WILL, Esq. AUDITOR, ALLEN ROBINETTE. DIRECTOR OF THE POOR, QUINTIN ARMSTRONG. Slanders Refuted! The last Reporter inakes a calculation, reducing Mr. Ritner's vote to less than half what it was in 0 1 32, and raising the vote of Wolf to 25,000 more than he then re ceived! If the editor had any shame, he would be' ashamed to look his own friends in the faCe—afteepublishing such an article. The editor calculates upon getting the votes of the. Whigs! There is not a Whig paper in the state supporting Wolf. Every paper that supported Ritner in _18:32 is _ support ing him now, and a number of those which were neutral or supporting Wolf. There is another circumstance which is conclu• sive: Bets are almost every day made be. tween the Muldenberg and Wolf men. But although 0(100 is ready in Harrishurg for any one who will bet against Ritner, yet not a man can be found to take one fbr the smallest amount. A premium of $2OO on a $lOOO, is also offered to any person who will find anyone to take the bet. We are sorry to see bets offered, for we are opposed to betting, for it is an effectual means of cor rupting the elections. But those . who are not politicians, but who wish to win money, will make them, and the side that such men are willing to risk their money on, cannot be considered weak. Instead of boasting —the Reporter had better undertake to clear the administration. from the charge of squandering the public funds to the amount of millions, which the Legislature put into its hands to make internal improve. ments. • The Reporter says that the public works bring in three thousand dollars a day. Grant it. They ought to bring in EIGHT THOU SAND to pay the interest on the cost of construction,, the repairs, and the canal officers. - - . Every day that the canal brings in three thousand dollars, the pay of the. army of canal officers will amount to one THOU. SAND DOLARS. By a report last_ winter, which was be. Revell to be but partial, the salaries of the army on the canal amounted to about $150,- 000. It Is believed that a sum sufficient to pay all the officers and hands employed. by the state, will exceed $200,000. The sum of $210,000 for thirty weeks, about the average time in the year for tak ing tolls—is ONE THOUSAND DOL. ARS a day. Is it not then time to reform the administration when one third of all the tolls, is 'eaten up by the canal officers? The repairs amount to about $2,000 a day, so that the.canal army and the repairs will eat up every dollar of the income of the public works. What then is to pay the interest on our state debt of $25,000,000—an interest amounting yearly to a MILLION and a QUARTER of dollars annually? Nothing but taxes in every shape. Is it not then time for Reform—time to send this army of canal officers to earning their own bread like other people—time to introduce econo my and retrenchment? Let the people answer' these questions in October next. Harrisburg Telegraph.. 00013 News FROM A DA:ItS COUNTY.-- Otir teaders wilt learn with no small grail fif:atifirk that the Democratic Anti-masonic etiverition of Adams county, which met in “ettyaburg on Monday last, renominated the Legislature, 7 haddeus Stevens, and IFFSherry, Esquires. A better or ..eonger ticket could not have been male. The candidates are both well known and osteemed, abroad as well ns at home; Mr. &milts as the distinguished orator and the proud, champion of our cause, and Mr. 11P. Sherry as an intelligent, high.minded and excellent man, qualified even to fill the office of Governer of the Commonwealth with honor. The nomination of these men has satisfied us that JOSEPH RITNER (of whose election no party now entertains a doubt) will be ably sustained, in the investi. trillion of abuses, and the„reforms he will in• troduce into the administration of affairs, by the wisdom and talents of the party. It must be gratifying to every friend of Econ omy, to see, as it were, the Sur. of Reform already arising to dispel the murky atm& sphere of corruption that surrounds the ex• eeritive chair. Let the People do their duty, and the State will be redeemed from peculit tion, fraud and bankruptcy.Libid. Joseph ilitner the Next Gover nor.—The accounts from the Country are so decidedly favorable to the Election of • Mr. Eitner, as to leave no , more doubt of that event than ifthe votes had already been counted, and the majority ascertained. We cannot dissemble our unfeigned satisfaction st`tbisitifbrmation; and as tt comes direct fool) the friends of Mr. Wolf, wo venture tlo`.tisy titan few or pone ofthatartwill re. P Y p re- to It is, beyond all question, the_EalbeCiuspicious result that could occur, existing circumstances; as it will tend xtid.nrrest that animosity between Al s, uktenberg parties, that 4tiglitj'ctittte*se - beciime implacable, and mak* a pin:potent-breach in the party.

We recommend the friends of Mr. Wet/ to suhroit to their fate with a good grace, and not to add to their loss of humor and office, the loss ,of their money by making foolish, inconsider ate, and ruinous bets.—Democralic Herald THE Rum En. Had we our way, or SflV in the matter, the Governor's Chair should be made of TVool, and none hot a Farmer, nn honest farmer, should ever sit on it. Let nn example he set in the case of Rit nor. What a triumph it will he over the two professions of LI& 'Law and the Gospel!' Tun Wr,sT will send at lenst '20,000 ma• jority to the mountnins, for Joseph Ritner over George Wolf. r. Ritner has nlways been a favorite With the West, ns a Western man, even when Wolf was in the flush and prime of his fortunes; now, that he has grown old, musty, and cankerous, in am bition, avarice, end aribtocrney, the West, the generous and free West, will give us 20,000 majority over him for Joseph Ritner! The -Farmer—the honest man—and the tried soldier of the last War, will bent George Wolf by 30,000 majority.—[lb. lirnspec7ors" Election. We would call the early attention of the friends of JOSEPH RITNER throughout the State to the importance of organization, activity, union and vigilance in the selection and support ofcandidates for Inspectors and Assessors on Friday the 2d of October next. ft is well known that the Wolf party are already preparing their forces for a demons• tration of strength, at that lime, expecting to find us indifferent or careless, and through cunning obtain victories to trumpet over the State to revive their drooping spirits.— They now have travelling agents securing the State, giving out the watch-word to their party and stimulating them to their must desperate notion. alley will use every means to defeat the friends of Ritner and Reform, no matter how foul. The minions oldie administiation, comprising a boast of holders and Canal dependents will attempt to overthrow and heat down the rising voice of the People. They are organizing with a determination, to prostrate the unorganized energies of untrammelled Freemen. It is of the highest importance therefore, that• the irreszstable _strength of the supporters of RITNER AND REFORM be organized and brought to the Polls, nt the Inspector's election. Let them arouse-.--let them rally such a united array of strength as nothing can resist. Let the voice of our yeomanry —the Farmers and Mechanics, ho heard in a united (lint to prostrate the advocates of corrupt ion,peculation and fraud. Let them step forward as the proud defenders of Liber ty—as the opponents of oppression—and as the friends of popular rights. They hold the sceptre of' power in their own hands.— The ballot box is the thione from which they issue their decrees. Let them rally around the Democratic Standard of RITNER AND REFORM, and arrest the tide of party plunder that has disgraced, degraded and sunk the great Democratic State of Pennsylvania into vassalage and bondage to the minions ofn corrupt administration. and the Royal Aristocrats of Europe. Let our friends but make a united'efrort—let them rally to the charge and triumph will crown their efforts. Victory is already hovering over their standard, ready to perch upon it on the day of battle. Let themeome boldly forward and unite in the glorious work.— "here is no time to be lost. The day of action has arrived, and if the zeal of our friends only equals the justice of their cause, "VICTORY IS AS CERTAIN' AS TIIE POWER OF TILE PEOPLE IS IRRESISTABLE. CANAL AND RAIL. ROAD TOLL9.--The Reporter boasts greatly that the tollsjrom the Canal and Rail Road amouted the last week to $18,531; but it is careful not to inform the people that this sum wilt scarce pay the host of canal nobility and their laquies and repairs, whilst THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS A WEEK, would be required in ADDITION to n►eet the interest of the State Debt, which has to be drawn from the pockets dike Farmers and Mechanics BY TAXATION. Th►s fact will not be very "gratifying to any Pennsylvanian who loves his State and would rejoice in seeing evidences of her great and growing-prosperity."

In order to test the sincerity of the Edi tors of the "Examiner," when they say in their last paper, "Let it be well observed by the Ritner'men, then—we claim from the republican people of Washington County, a majority for the "patriotic" Wolf at the en suing election—yes, a majority over Ritner in his own County--mind that"—We offer them, or any of the party the following Bet, viz:-- TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS That Ritner will have a majority over Wolf in Washington County.
