If we were to judge from the statements made in the loco foco papers, we would be led to believe that the changes from Rimer to Porter were as numerous es the lies in• vented to effect such a change. Now, sir. I have borne opportunity of judging ns well as other folks, and I have been unable to discover any such falling off from the ranks of the "farmer." I do not know a single in stance oldie kind in our neighbourhood,and what is still butter, I do not know an avowed POrter mariin our village. Let David R Porter openly avow him. self in favour of the measures of the "suc cessor" to "my illu trious prodecossur," and h 6 will find his ranks becoming thinner every day. As it is, thousands will cu"t their votes for the honest DUTCII FARMER, who are now counted among the followers of David R. Porter, but who do not wish, by.avowmg their partiality for honesty and economy, to incur the abuse which the lead• ars of the loco focos uniformly bestow upon those who dare to exercise their right, and act independently. If I am not much mistaken, the Porter men will at the election find a "beggarly account of empty boxes." The sketch of the life, character and public services of Joseph Ritner. written by a citizen of Lancaster county, published in 1835, says that Gov. Rimer "was born on the 25th of March, 1780, in Alsace town ship, in Barks county. Both his parents wore also natives of Berks, whither his an cestors emigrated from Germany about a century ago." . As Mr. Ritner is a German and speaks and reads und.writes the German language, as he has done from his earliest days, all Germans and persons who have descended from Germans, as well as all Pennsylvanians, have reasons to be proud of him. The ma. sonic party have called on and invited all Germans and voters of German descent to be influenced by national feelings and par tiality at the election for Governer, by al wayscalling their candidate David Ritten. house Porter, because his grandmother or great grandmother was of German descent, or because he was called after the late Da vid Rittenhouse, of Montgomery, who was of German origin. The Germans and voters of German de scent will be very apt to take the masonic par ty at their word, and allow national feeling and partiality to have their proper influence in choosing between Joseph Raner and David Rittenhouse Parter.[Lan. Examiner. From the Carlisle Herald. D.l Pill R. OR TER AND THE MAMMOTH IMPROVEMENT BILL. The reader recollects the largo Appro priation Bill which passed the Legislature at the session of 18:38-7, which authorized the expenditure of THREE MILLIONS THIRTY—ONE THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED AND FORTY—THREE DOLLARS, but which, by Governor HIT NER'S VETO was prevented from becom ing a law. Had this bill passed, the State Debt, which is now upwards of 25 millions of dollars, would have been increased to up wards of 45 Millions of Dollars?! THIS GOV. RITNER. PREVENTED, and thus received the thanks of the whole commu nity, excepting a few of his opponents who are determined to find fault with every act he does. We propose to exhibit to the reader the part DAVID R. PORTER as a member of the Senate, took in passing that extrava gant bill. The bill came up on second reading in the Senate, on the 28th of March, 1837, and the proceedings are recorded in Senate Jour nal, vo. 1. from , page 054 till page 678, and from page 684 till page 690, all inclusive. David R. Porterappears to have boen pre sent during the whole time the bill was un dergoing second reading. David R. Porter voted in favor of the first section of the bill—eoe Senate Journal, vol. 1, p. 65.5. D. R. Porter voted in favor of the second section of the bill—see some Journal, p. 656. D. R. Porter voted in favor of the third section of the bill—see same Journal p. 657, and 668. D. R. Poftor made no resistance to the passage of the 4th section, it having been adopted without division—see same Journal p. 062. The Oh section was also adopted without division—see page 663. . A motion was made to amend the bill, by adding an appropriation to the "Tioga Nay. igation Company" of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. On this question the yeas and nays were ordered, and DAVID R. PORTER voted for the amendment! See Senate Journal, vol. 1, p. 604 & 655. t• A motion was made .by Messrs. PORTER and Miller to add an appropriation of TEN TIIO,USAND DOLLARS .to construct an outlet lock, from the canal to the riyer, opposite Perrysville, in Juniata county. On this amendinent the yeas and nays were or dered, and DAVID It. POR PER and elev en others voted for tho motion. See same Junreal, pAge 667 & 668. A, motion was made to appropriate TEN TROUSANDS DOLLARS to the Steu benville - anil Pittsburg Turnpike Company, and DAVID R. PORTER and night others voted for the motion. Scie rue Journal, !urge 607. Mr. poRTER nioved nn appropriation ,of FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS to a company to construct a bridge over the ri ver at Lewistown (no company was yet for- Med.) Por this David R. Porter and - six others voted. See same Journal, page 670. Mr. PORTER moved an appropriation of TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL LARS to a RAIL ROAD COMPANY to construct a rail road from Huntingdon to Chambersburg. [A road which if con structed, would not be travelled once a inonth.] Not agreed to. See same JoUr. nal, page 072. Mr. PORTER moved en appropriation of TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS toward completing a state road from Concord to Drake'i4 Perry. Not agreed to. See same Journal, pave 673. DA VI D R. PORTER moved an appro priation of ONE HU N DRED THOUS A N D DOLLARS to the Raystown Branch Nay igation Company. Not agreed to. See , -:atne Journal, page 674. The question was then taken to agree to this immense section (the sixth) by yeas and nays, and was decided in the affirmatiw., DAVID R PORTER and twenty•ti others voting for it. See same Journal pages 677 & 678. The seventh section was then adopted without division, as was also the eighth.— See same Journal, pages 6 4 5 & The ninth and tenth sections were adopt ad without division—see page 688. On adopting the eleventh section, the yeas and nays were called, and DAVID R. PORTER voted for it—see same page. The twelfth section was. then agreed to without the yeas and nays being called. As was also the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth. See same Journal, pages 688 & 689. The public will see by the foregoing state. ment, what part DAVID R. PORTER ac• ted in producing tho Mammoth Improve. ment Hill which passed the Legislature at the session oft 8 3U.7, and which Gov. RI T. NER VETOED. It will be seen that large as that bill was, it would have been much larger had the amendments Porter voted for prevailed. That the above facts are true, we refer to the Journals quoted. It may be . found at cacti election district in the county. From the Harrisburg Intelltgencer. 81,000 Deward. Messrs. Eorroas,—The following article which I now find in the Reading "Democratic Press," has for some time been going the rounds of the Porter papers, seemingly to be uncontradicted by those supporting Gov. Rit ner. W bother this silence on the part of our I papers arises from the barefacedness of the Falsehood, which must be apparent to every one,or whether it has been deemed unwort by of notice by them, I am not prepared to say. ' Allow, me however, Gentlemen, to say, that so far as it charges Gov. Ritner with increas ing the STATE DEBT it i 9 false, basely false in every particular—he haying REDUC.

A person would suppose that the Editor of the "Democratic Press" was possessed of more honesty than to have published the fore going statement, which ho must have known at the time to be untrue; for it would he hard to accuse him of ad much ignorance.

MORE FALSEHOODS OF THE KEYSTONE AND VoLurrrEEß.—The last Volunteer con tains some two or three columns of false statements, copied from that truth-telling paper, the Harrisburg Keystone, in which Gov. Ritnor is charged with having opposed the granting of any relief whatever to old soldiers who served their country in the bat tle field. To prove their assertions, they refer to the Journals of the Legislature,and give extracts therefrom. We have refer• red to the Journals and find that the ex tracts given in the Keystone are GAR BLED AND UNTRUE. JOSEPII NER 'lever opposed giving pensions and an• nuities to old soldiers who bad served their country; for, whilst in the Legislature of his native state,he was chairman of the com mittee on claims,and we find in the journals a large number of reports presented by him in favor of granting pensions to the war worn veteran- The following extract from the journals will be stitllzient to prove that he was a friend—ax ARDENT FRIEND TO REVOLUTION Alt Y 'SOLDIERS.

This is the first time that ever we knew a man who aspired to be Governor of this great Com monwealth reduced to such a pitiful shift to prop up his reputation. It might do well enough for a country school-master wander ing about in gearch of a place, or a mental hunting "service;" but for a would-be chief magistrate of Pennsylvania, it is a rather small business. These certificates are sign ed by lists of names of nobody knows who, but every body 'knows how easy it is to get them. All that need be done is to go to a church yard and copy the names from the tomb-stones—to a school house and get those of the children—to a canal boat or a dram shop and procure those of the loafers who lounge about them for a glass of grog.

Seunte, on the 4 thinstant, Mr. WRIGHT then moved that the Sen ate proceed to consider the amendment of the House to the bill to modify the last clause of the fifth section oI• the deposite act of the 23d June, 1836, when Mr. WEBSTER said hp should concur most readily in this amendment of the Howe. It gave him the truest pleasure to learn that the House had rejected the second section of the bill, mind that it had done so by 86 decisive a majority. The House had thus arrested the surrender of all control over the public treasure to the Executive. It had interpos ed its own high authority in a most constitu• tionat and salutary manner; a manner highly becoming the representatives of a free Peo ple. For all this (said Mr. W.) I feel high• ly grateful; and at this result, I think, the whole country may be justly congratulated. We hold on yet to the true doctrine, and the important republican principle of logis lative control and superintendence of the pub lic money; an•l I hope, sir, wo shall Continue to hold on. $1,298,2713 36 And now, sir, as to what remains in this bill, I think it is of no great importance. It will do no harm, and some good. It relieves the incapacity of being received at the Trea sury from bills of banks which have issued small bills, provided such banks shall issue no such small bills after the first day of Or tober next. This time is much too short, even if it were judicious to lis any definite time, which Idu not think it is. The banks generally will nut be able to discontinue the use of small bills within that period; nor will they have sufficient inducement to do it. The inconvenience will fall, not principally on them, but on the People; sno man will be able, if the law is regar d to pay his post. age account, or any other debt duo to Gov ernment, by any bunk notes within his reacli or command. This bill, therefore, does little, very little indeed, to remove the ev.ls and inconveni ences which are felt, and which roust con tinue to be felt. Then again, sir, remember that the new Treasury circular is still in force; and that no bank note of any bank, if it be less than twenty dollars, can be received at all. This greatly impairs the privilege secured by the resolution of 1816- At the post office and at the land offices, no paper less than twenty dollars can be received. I have already, again and again, laid this before the view of gentlemen. I have asked them if they are contented with this state of things, and if they think the People will bo contented.— Will the small purchasers at the hind offices be satisfied with this? Is it right to expect it? Certainly, sir, this is not what I propos ed for them, nor what I thought their inter est required. If we mean to maintain the principle of the resolution of 1816—if we mean to make bank notes receivable at all, why should we embarrass and thwart its operation by re jecting all notes under so- high a sum as twenty dollars? Why not stop at five dollars, the point at which the State banks have ar rived? However, I have addressed the Senate re• peatodly on this part of the subject before; and the People, I trust. everywhere, will understand•that I, and those who usuully act with me, have done all in our power to give to them, in every part of the country,the just benefits of the resolution of 016, without unreasonable embarrassment. One word, sir, on another part of the sub ject. This bill leaves the deposite system in full operation in some places and some States, and it leaves it impossible to be adopted in other States. Our actual system, therefore, will be wholly unequal; it will .be one thing in one part of the country, and another thing in another pert. These evils,sir,and those inequalities can not long 'exist. The country • will demand their removal.- spry. 2 6 1 12 1 0 2 1 0 111 6 iVe break up then, sir, with tto'eab Trea sury bill We break up with no special deposit° bill.

Zeller from .Maj. Downing? To the Editors of the Express—the same paper ray old friend Mr Dwight had a spell ngo: ON BOARD THE "Two POLLIES, " NIGH THE-DRY DOCK,Junc 28, 1838. I sent a sarcular a few weeks ago to Squire Biddle and all the other leading Bank folks about the country,sometbing arter this rash. ion:—Gentleinen—The time is now pretty nigh come when some on us must be stirring our stumps to lend a hand in rigging out the Two Polltes, and sticking things up about her for a voyage—as she has been now lung enough idle—and if something aint done a. bout the matter we may as well ugree to break her up. Gitteil her offshore at Rock away was my part of the difficulty, and the next is to refit and rig out," &c. In reply to this sarcular I got n letter from the ' , squire" saying that ns he had no hand it getting the Two Ponies into difficulty, he didn't see how in nature he should be cull'd on to git her out on't—tho' he would be very willing to fend a hand, providing that folks woulenTeltarge him with medling with mat ters that didn't belong to him, &c. got also a hull hat full of letters from the Wall street folks,—sorne proposm one plan of "fatten out" and some another—the most on um agreeing to furnish ballast enuf, as they had touch and more of that than they knew what to do with—in fact they of fered me so much ballast that there would be no room lett to stow cargo—and the "Two Pollies" nor any other Polly ever made a good vyge yet loaded with ballast. So arter thinking a spell 1 concluded that the best course would be to fix a day for calling "a Convention" and give them a trial. end so I sent another sarcular requesting that Squire Biddle and all the other Ba iik folks would, on Independence day,next com ing, be in readiness in their boats, in the East River, the Dry Dock—where the "Two Pollies" is—and haul her out in the stream—l seem to have a notion that in this way I can tell pretty well nigh how things are to work—by the way they will manage their oars. For if they haint got wit enough to pull together in taking a vessel from the slip into the stream, I don't think they ought to be relied on for managing matters in the rougher, weather. I am happy to say that all bands have a greed to make u trial, according to my re. quest, and so, on Independence day,look out and see how nigh my next letter will de. scribe the matter. *". Squire Biddle says he'll be here with his four 9, twenty oar'd long boat and plenty of medium (or rope, I supposes)--tho,' be says. he don't like to meddle in the matter till other folks have tried their hand. So the honor of taking the TworPollles out in the stream will first be tried by 'the Wall street folks and . 1 have no doubt they will finish the business if they can only agree to pull together, and in that case the Squire may take back his'24 oar'd king boat to Philudelpliy again and his medium along with titr one thing 1 am determined on, and that is, that Ow • ilks who succceid hest in bawling the Two Pollies in the stream bholl have the say in rigging on her up for the vyge, which I hope will be long and prop. porous one, and no more getting onshore or in the breakers. So no more from your friend. J. DOWNING, Major. Downlngville Militia 2d Brigade. anniversary Celebration.

FOURTH OF JULYI Dauphin County Celebration Larger than the whole Locofoco State Convention!! "Glory Enough for one Day!!!!" Yeatorday.. was a glorinita day for the TRUE DEMOCRACY of Dauphin County. We have bad the largest Fourth of July celebration ever known in Penneylvania,,upwarda of T WO THOU. SAND persona being in nttandanco,including the guests from other n°llllOl3El. The Loco Focoa had not an many at their State Convention by NINE HUNDRED. It was a glorions day. In the morning the streets wore pretty well filled with Porteritos,who wore chuckling at the idea of having the day all to themselves; 'but soon in flocked the Philadel. phia and Lancaster guests in such numbers t!.at, they wore positively appalled; banners with up. propriate mottoes, Ouch as "RITN ER AND NO STA'rErTAXES," "DOWN WITH PORTER AND AMALGAMATION," &c. &c., were streaming over the heads of the assembled peo. plo,in alldirections. This was about eight o'clock, A. M. The Loco Feces then turned out and at• tempted to make a show, having, to give thorn a fair estimate, upwards of eight hundred at that time, which number was afterwards somewhat increased. But wo soon again turned the tables on their torror.strickon and wo begone ranks,and marched into town with upwards of THREE HUNDRED from the upper end of good old Da u. phis, who came in n boat with their banners and the National Flag streaming boldly over them.— With these also marched nearly FOUR HUN DRED who came from below, accompanied by a most excellent band of music rom York, engag ed for the occasion. We now collected our forces and marched to Wissol's orchard on the canal below town. A. bout TWO HUNDRED wore on the ground when the music and front files reached it; about FIFTEEN HUNDRED were In the procession: and about THREE HUNDRED on the side walks, besides some others who wore too much fatigued in couching this placo to turn out. On the ground all was hilarity and enjoyment. The best spirit animated our friends, and excellent order was preserved. 'rho Declaration of Ind°. pondence was road by S. Shock, Esq., and able addresses delivered Messrs. James Hanna of Phil adelphia, and James Cooper, of Adams county; whose thrilling eloquence electrified the whole vast assemblage end was answered with thunders of applause, and the firing of cantle - D. At a good hour wo came into town, NINETEEN HUN. DRED AND THIRTY NINE marching in pro. cession, and before dispersing heard an excellent speech from Goo.

FACTS will be Oeveloped which cannot but drive every haneml Pennsylvanian from the ranks of the Insolvent Debtor, David R. Por ter. Come ono, come all—hear and judge for yourselves. James C. Biddle, Esq. a:7 -This distinguished Gentleman delivered the Annual Address before the- Literary Societies of Pennsylvania College, in this place, on the 4th inst. From the high reputation which Mr. 'hoots en joys in the Scientific world, both os a scholar and a num of taste, the moat sanguine expectations were formed by our citizens; but whatever these expectations may have boon, we are warranted in saying they were more than realized by all who had the pleasure of hearing the address. The theme. "Ova Going Tor," was naturally suggested by the day on which the address was to be pronounced. None could be better calculated to descant upon this subject than Mr. Biddle. Tho various exciting topics of the day, all received due attention. In alluding to the different errors prey alma in our country, ho become truly eloquent.— The spirit of Mobocracy was handled in a manner well worthy a patrioticand enlightened mind. Sen timents so sound, and so philosophical, should be widely disseminated through our country. After touching upon various interesting points connoted with the history of our country, Mr. Bid dle concluded with on eloquent appeal to the Mem bers of the Literary Aasociations to cherish a spirit of generous emulation for those worthy men who had boon .instrumental in achieving and perpetu ating American freedom; and to cultivate Science and Yirtuoi that they might be well prepared to do honor to their country, to the Institution with which they aro connected, and to themselves. In short, a spirit of the purest patriotism and tho most devoted piety runs through the whole address, and beautifully shadows forth the amiable and praiseworthy qualities of its author. All look forward to the publication of the Address with mu, h interest and pleasure. After the Address had been delivered, the pro cession returned to the College Editice,where they partook of an excellent Dinner prepared by the Steward of the College. The dinner was given in honor of Mr. Biddle by the Literary Associa tions, to which the Faculty, the Trustees of the College, and the Honorary Members of the Socie ties were invited. Mr. Biddle left town on the evening of the same day for Philadelphia, carry ing with him the respect and good wishes of all. Government Oloney. Wo have before adverted to the fact that the National Administration was endeavoring to in. fluence our elections, by means of its money, Bent here to be betted and used in purchasing votes. That it has done so, is no longer a matter o doubt. Two or three days ago, in a public house in this Borough, a Porter man was offering to bet that the Government candidate would be elected; the sum ho offered to bet woe ten dollars. In order to test his sincerity a Ritner man present offered to bet him the proposed sum and give hire thou• sand of a majority besides. This, the Portman, who, is a gambler on a small scale, and bets win, agreed to; but requested half an hour tote the money. This was granted him, and ho ?iiint out to raise it, and after remaining out about -- 4 hour returned with the money, but won/tend 6e.t:on the conditions agreed upon, but was willintS to bet and did bet that Porter would have five thbusand of a majority. This man has no money, of his own to bet, and is one of ifritiaa yvhoyjtouhe does bet for himself, beta to win. .; The only inference that can be drawn from this man's conduct, when you consider his character, is that ho was betting funds not his own; and that ho was betting for effect is certain, otherwise,when a bet was offered him, that Ritner would have fine thousand of a majority, he would not have refused to bet, except, on the condition that Porter would have five thousand. The whole matter is plain. After he had at first proposed to bet, and the bet was agreed to be taken on more favorable terms to him than ho himself hod proposed, not having the money he went out to raise it, where he know it might be had; and on application to the Leader and Troa suror of the funds of the General Government, it was agreed that ho should have the required sum, provided ho would bet it, in such a way, as would prone° tho most effect, without regard to win ning or looaftig. Ho wall therefore obliged to take it on the terms proposed by the Government agent, or fail to put up the money as ho had agreed to do. The names of the parties to this transaction will be given if necessary. Simon Snyder & Joseph Ritner. 0:1.1t is somewhat remarkable,that the men who have displayed the greatest abilities in the admin istration of the Government 'of this' Common wealth, should have been both PRACTICAL FARMERS. But such is'the fact; St Ntow9vr. DER and JONIIVII Rivivan have done more to ad. vatic° the prosperity of this Commonwsal:h, than all the Lawyers and Preachers that have over held the office of Governor. One reason for the superiority of such men is this, that coming directly from the ranks of the people, they understand their interests better than those who have associated hut little with thorn.— Another reason is, that tho business of Farming requires attention and economy, and they bring with them into public life the industry and econo ay which they learned upon their Farms. The , •onsequence is,that they attend to business, where is those who have been raised in ease and idleness. when they come into office, neglect their business to the great detriment of the public interest. 'There is still another reason why Joseph Ritner should be supported for Govei nor at the next elec tion. It is this: a great majority of the people of this:Commonwealth are Germans, or of German origin. Joseph Rilner is himself a German, and, of course, better acquainted with the linhits, feel ings and interests of this class of our citizens, than one who is not a German. lie knows what kind of legislation would hest promote their interests; and they being the majority, what would be for their benefit, would be for the benefit of the State. Blackguardisin and Brutali ty of the IP'orterites! INSULT TO THE GERMAN POPULATION! c o. We ask the serious attention of the readers of the Star to the following articles from the Har risburg Intelligencer of Thursday list. We were in Harrisburg on Wednesday morning, and can bear testimony to the excitement among the order ly of both parties relative to the brutal conduct of the supporters of Porter towards Governor Ritner. All look upon the outrage as uncalled for, t.t'dis grace to the State, and an insult to the German population—the bone and sinew of the Common wealth. Desperate, indeed, must be the party that will resort to such means. Let the People every where rally, arid touch such ruffians that brute force will receive no countenance from them.— MANY But to the extracts:— The conduct of the Locnfocos the night hefore and yesterday was DISGRACEFUL IN THE EXTREME, and shows the des perate means to which they are driven to get along their Sub• Treasury Shinplaster candi date. On Tuesday night and before day yesterday morning, at three diff!rent times, they assembled in front of Gov. Ritnor's res idence and abused him in the most vulgar style—calling out "DA MN OLD JOE RITNER—WE'RE FOR. POR'FER— BRING OUT YOUR CH A MPAIGNE, YOU DA MN'D OLD DUTCH HOG," with numerous similar insulting epithets; at the same time kicking the door, beating at the windows end pulling the bell wire, in such a manner that the whole neighborhood was disturbed arid some ladies in delicate health alarmed so much as to endanger their lives. Our own residence is about one square from the Governor's, and we heard the noise distinctly. The details and particulars we were informed of by a nearer neighbor of the Governor, one of the most respectable inhabitants of Harrisburg, who will,if called upon, TESTIFY TO THEIR TRUTH 1 BEFORE A MAGISTRATE. But this is riot all They took every op portunity to INSULT and ABUSE the friends ofGov. Ritner,as the procession mov • ed through the streets; but were answered only with the silent scorn of the freemen WHO •DARED TO AVOW THEIR PREFERENCE FORME WASHING TON COUNTY FAINEB.,over the Hun tingdon county prothonotary who is only distinguished I'M. having defrauded his credi tors. But we will take our revenge and wipe off the Locofoco insults at the BAL- I LOT.BOXES,the freeman's peaceful resort. The finger of MARTIN VAN BU RF.N and his officers at Vk'nshirsatun has boon palpably visible in the whole Locufoco Convention. A large CANNON belonging to the United States, was sent up from the Navy Yard at Philadelphia, and men from the U. S. Navy sent along to load and fire it. There were scarcely any delegates from Philadelphia but CUSTOM HOUSE OFFI CERS and other agents of the general gov. ernment. Poor David R. Porter! his main dependence is on FOREIGN AlD,—hav ing no Pennsylvania strength, he must re ceive succor from abroad. But the people of Pennsylvania consider it an INSULT to their understandings, for a national admin istration thus to invade the State elective arena and with its officersand money attempt to away their votes; and they will triump• hantly reelect the patriot MINER, who has always resisted and is now sought to be made the victim of, that abuse of power. More Loco Foco Insults to the Governor. Outrageous conduct. While in Harrisburg, some of the Loco focos appeared to have lost all sense of de cency, (if they ever had any,) and deter mined to go the full length-. to BLACK; GUARDISM, Gov. Ritnei was several times insulted on the streets, while walking to and from the capitol, by drunkards and brutes in human form, who groaned and hurrahed for Porter, and PI DICU LED the old DUTCH 'FARMER GOVERNOR. The Locofocos cannot say anything a gainst the wise and patriotic measures o the Governor, and therefore try to put him down by RIDICULE, SLANDER and BLACKGUARDISAL “The Old Guard.” 0i -The old Anti-Masonic Guard, who are al ways to be relied on when hard blows are to be dealt upon the.enerny, wo are glad to find, arc burnishing up their Arms for the contest in Octb her next. During the past week, we have seen a number of them, and they all say, that as this State is the last hope of Van Buren, and the ground on which his friends are going to make their last and 11110 st desperate struggle, that they will meet them in a spirit as determined as their own, confident of victory through the goodness of their cause. When such a spirit animates our friends, we may look for A GLORIOUS TRI UMPH! ccyratax Gnvicuir, U. S. Senator from Ten; nessco, has been appointed Attorney General of the United States iu the place of B. F. BuTtan, resigned.

He ex pressed himself iii the strongest language a• gainst the Conservatives. PUBLIC NOTICES Encampment of Vblunteers.

This 1.9 false ; no Ritner man could have made surh an admission, because nt Harrisburg, it was admitted, on all hands, that the LOCO Foco Con vention Vi S A FAILURE, and that the Ruttier Celebration WAS THE LARGEST "GATH ERING" EVER SEEN IN THE COUNTY OF DAUPHIN! Come,Measra. Editors,stlck nearer to the truth, or you will get out of credit with your own party, and bo displaced by the Sentinel! Sticking to the Truth! Last week, or week hefore, the i•Compiler" said Porter had resigned. This week it says, Por ter intends to resign!" This is sticking pretty close to the truth, for a Loco Foco! aerhe 4Compiler" is chock full of fight for its darling ..Porter!" Although the weather is rather hot, yet we shall begin next week to "kill it oft" We shall drive the cork so tight into its Porter bottle that all the "strong pulls" of the Major, and the "weak-lies" of tho "wee bit" of a Lawyer, will be unable to "unscrew!" Look out! Correct Reasoning. }The People every where say, that a man like David R. Porter, who was unable to manage hie own business, and "took the benefit," to pay his debts, would be still less able to manage the busi ness of the Commonwealth. They fear, and correctly too, that under his man agement, the COMMON WEALTH WOULD ALSO BECOME INSOLVENT. Therefore. they are determined to go for the GERMAN FARMER, who has proved himself LIONZOT and COMPETENT. az}The Chambersburg Telegraph is informed that we intend getting a representation of a Jack Ass, to be used when we indite a notice of the said Telegraph and its truih-loving Editor.
