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.

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.

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.—

friends only equals the justice of their cause,

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."
From the Washington Reporter.

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.
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS
That his msjority will he three hundred.
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS
That his majority will he five hundred,
and
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS
That it will be Eight Hundred.
