The Silver Lake Railroad.
Wihid designed this Week 'tit re=publish
that sinpendoUs piece of *and, Iconcocted by
W i kigalas, t fall, and by which a difference
0: 1 ° 111 0 hundreds of votes Was. made in the re
init cif that election,called by way of distine
ties:the " Silver Lakel.telfrctad Humbug."—
cour iobjectrismet!tosfwke up buried, matters
for* sake,of annoying - our, opponents, how
everakraoeful the AO really was, but to re-'
Viva recollection in relation :to the saw, the
fray& and corruption, they have resorted to,
and will again resort to, to carry an election.
Our .readers well know its character, and whit
were its authors and abettors, hence we need
tibt personate again. We advert to it now to
show what vile means the whigs . , have adopt/.
ed, when they. lad less, perhaps, to instigate
them to fraudulent exertions than now, to car ;
ry their ends. A scheme, more diabolical aria
infamous is rarely concocted, and hence it is no
matte' that prominent,' and leading Whigs in
this county, who were notoriously and
confessedly cognizant of it before it was eject/.
ed from the press, 'or even placed before the
etnnposi l tor, were ashamed of it, and taxed - their
ingennity to its utmost limits to disown it rib
of wl4 origin. That it was
,got up by a
Whig and that several of the leading memberii
of that party saw it in manuscript before it-was,
printell, we again repeat, is notorious. And
we submit it to the candid of all parties Wheth
ttr he who sees the incendiary prepare the
Match to fire his neighbor's dwelling and does
riots4read the alarm, is not equally culpable,
and r4cognized as a participator in the guilt.
There is a lesson, however, even in this vile,
abortive, plOt. We have learned 'from it what
to Catlett from its abettors hereafter, and can
prepate ourselves to counteract its effect upon
the unsuspecting and unwary. Be assured,
fellow. Democrats, that what they did once
they axe none too good to repeat if they think
it will twilll them any thing. It may not be a
" Silver Lake Railroad Humbug,"-but we have
a strong presentiment that it will be something
else, equally as fraudulent and diabolical.—
Should the . approaching election paskoff with
out some infamous fraud being played off by
the Whigs, we should be almost constrained to
embrace the speculations of the Prophet Mil
ler. Be, on your guard, piepared to meet and
gainsay every eleventh-hour humbug which
the Whigs may promulgate.
A New Issue.

which! the Whig National Intelligencer of
Washington pronounces a "shadow of an is

"abandon," and which the Boston Whig a

new issues has been dragged , forth called in the
language of the Intelligencer, a " No-more,
territory issue." Not content with the " aid
and comfort" they have alreadj , afforded the
infamous despots- of Mexico, through their
pressat their political or man-worshipping
banqnets, in Congress, and elsewhere, these
Federal-MOcan sympathizers are now about
to crown their "moral treason" by attempt

commenced, and has stubbornly refused to ter

It is now Pretty generally (understood that
the Fedeial and Native Americin partieS, which
have ever been one in all except in name, are
working together in the greatest harmony pre-_
paratory to the coming election: This fact has ,
been repeatedly charged' home upon them by
the Democratic papers ih Philadelphia and vi
cinity wbere about the only separate organiza
tion has heenlept up, and so , clearly proved
as to challenge denial. Accordingly we find
the follod•ing paragraph in the " Pennsylvani
an" of Monday, under the head of " Courting
adverse tufluences :"
" In 144, When the 'Federalists ventured to
obtain the vote of the Natives, it was alleged
as a gret4 sin upon Francis R. Shenk that he
had walked inoi Catholic procession. In 1847,1
however, !when the Nativists are supposed to
beriafe enough for Irvin, under any circum
stances, this Story is not revived, but the ut
most exertion is made to secure the Catholic
vote by circulating the most scandalous calum
nies against Mr. Shunk and the Democratic
party. These calumnies are cunningly kept
secret, bUt we• see it Charged by some of the
Democratic papers of the interior, that Irvin
has his emissaries busy at work circulating
them. We presume he is proclaimed as quite
as.much of an enemy to Nativlsm in Pittsburg
and Hollidayiburg as heis the foe of the Cath
olics in Philadelphia." 1
We trust that the adopted citizens of this
county will 'remember this identity of Federal- .
