With n5 sources of ex-' pendi'.ure, except the Branches of the Pub lie V\ oiks and ordinary purposes of govern ment, it is readily perceived, by reference; to the fable above, that the fixed revenue of the Commonwealth will, at au early day ( "reduce the debt at the rate named. Bui with the Main line to receive, in its capa cious maw, large sums of money, no mate rial reduction of indebteness can be expect ed.

AN ArT HLPLY.—A clergyman wa, once travelling oa board of a Western steamer, when among the passengers was a Rino who took great pains to make known that he wa* opposed to reiigit n, denounc ing Christ us an iUJposter, and all forms of religion as delusion. He was a man of ability and education, and a great wit, and his remarks seemed to have quite an infiu euce on his hearers. The clergyman re frained front suying anything for a time, but finally decided to silence biui. Asking the skeptic if be believed iu the immortali ty of the soul, he teemed as an aDswer, 'No, I have uone.' i 'Do you believe in ihe existence of God?' 'Then, sir,' replied the clergyman' 'I have heard of you before.' 'Llcard of me? Where?' 'Yes—L have read of you.' 'Head about me! I was not awaro that I was published. Pray, where?'

Frauds Proved, The latd Presidential Election was Vir tually. decided, and the election of Baeba nan secured, by the result of the State Election in Pennsylvania on the second Tuesday in October last. That rewlr was pr&djiced by money eontribqted ID this City and expended in Pennsylvania just before that electron. Had the yotc been token two weeks earlier, Buchanan would havo lost the Srate by frebi frvc to ten thousand majority His importers knew it waf the® wfeeq cause here and pressed oflry Pr-Siavey hankers, brokers and office-holders into giving tbeut the re quisite rsvncy wherewith to it verse th-> ;.ur Verdict. And they know now that Mr. Buchanan was made President by that levy, "y < ...'J tw fc ,; At tiat clcctioit, Philadelphia was made to give a Butfhatian majority of 5,435—-the vote for Caual Corpuussieuer 6tandingd3cou, (Bueh.) 36,035t Cochrane, (Union Opp.} 02,603. And this Buchanan majority in the City was more than the ticket obtained in the btatc. the total vote standing—Scott 21_,8Sb; Cochrane 510,111: Scottla majo rity, 2,775- 1 bus outside of Philadelphia, in spite of the rmittersality of the frauds whereof that city was the focus, Cocbtano had a clear majority of 660 votes. The frauds in Philadelphia were so gross that William B. Mann, the Opposition can didate fur District Attorney, who was beat en iu the vote by Lewis C. Cassidy, the Buchatiuau candidate, resolved to contest the return before the higher Courts of that eity. The case has at length bcon brought to issue, aud on Saturday Judge Thompson delivered the unanimous opinion of tho Court, ousting Mr. Cassidy and affirming the election of Mr. Mann. Tie investigation on which the decision was based was cxtunded to bat eight of tho hundred or more polls hold throughout the City, these suflieiug to prove Mr. Mann's election, but the defense were at perfect liberty to extend the serutiuy to any ur all other polls. These polls returned 2,620 for Cassidy to 505 for Mann, while tho whole number of taxabies (synonymous with legal voters) in tho districts in which those polls were held was but 1,717, or 903 less than Cassidy's vote alone! Of the illegal vote, it was proved on the Irial that at least 1,168 must have been cast for Cassidy, re ducing his returned vote from 31,475 to 33,307, and electing Mr. Maun by 518 majority. This being practically as good as ten thousand, Mr. Mann had no motive for increasing the expense of the contest by guiug farther, or he might doubtless have proved thousands more of his opponent's votes as bad as these 1,168. Here are a few samples of the facts pro ved beyond contradiction by the contestant, and embodied in the judgment of foe Court "It is in direct testimony, that at the polls of some of the said divisions, the election offi ers absolutely refused to discharge their sworn duties, aud admitted every offered vote, in spite of remonstrance or challenge. "Iu the 6th division of the 4th Ward,73 votes are proved to have been received, in cases where cither the right to vote tras ob jected to by a qualified citizen, or the Dame of the voter was not upon the Iktqffetaxa bles, without oath or proof being required.. The wituer-s adds that 'MeQiaid put all the votes in the box without waiting for the In- ! spcctors to decide,' and that the Judge kept the list of taxublesj which was very seldom looked at. In tjjorfe than one instance, dronkefl men were allowed to vote, and'one mail,' says the witness, 'Was so drunk they had 'to hold Mm up.' Fifty-eight names were added to the list of taxable®, but for what retson is not staled. "la the Seventh Division of the Fourth Ward, the law was opebly violated by the election officers. They refused to take no tice of objections made to voters. Four uncontradicted witnesses, Levy, SSiginati, Neff and llieler, testify to the. fact that numerous challenges were made without effect. The Inspectors required no on© to be sworn, or to pr tduce proof, and that in to tue challenges made, one of the Inspectors wtniul reply, 'General Challenge don't live here.' One witness, Levy, says: 'No person Was sworn that day in support of the voters challenged, but some few on their tuxes.' Neff also testifies that no vouchers w, reproduced to prove residence, „that four persons duly were sworn to provq| tax receipts, tfnd that challenges were en tirely disregarded. He further states tnat be uiade challenges in consequence of the manner the votferd were shrmd vp fc nofe; some were shoved up and other persons would call cut their names for them Ii is in clear proof, that a vote, though challen ged, was received iu tbe uain* ot YV iiliaut
