FALSE REPORTS.
The Alexandra Gazette calls upon the
Wing press Of this cily to denounce, IN be-
coming terms, the BASE and LYING franns
which have been practi.ed upon the public
and of which the press Il the people, were
made the dupes. That the false reports
which we're brought to this city and credit
ed by EVERY BODY, were fabricated ny set
OF GAMBLERS for the purpose OF winning
money. both here and in NEW YORK, we
have not a particle Of doubt, and we think
we could name the men who had hand IN
and profted by these frauds.-Ne know
some Of Them, though we have not, as yet,
that kind of evidence of their agency that
will bear us out in giving their names to the
public, tho we may do 1t hereafter,
We feel not less indignant at this species
of FRAUD and swISDLIHG than the editor Of
the Gazette, and are ready, as soon rs we
can do so, to hold the guilty up to the scorn
and dersion Of an insulted public. We have
y clue 10 the base aud guilty wretches, and
let them beware exposure-One of them
deemed il advisable to carry on his opera
tions in New York, and has not shown his
face here since he rs prudent.
A Contradiction. Harrison, the whg
candidate, gets the most votes where he Is
the least known-but has overwhelming
maioritics against him in his own neigh
borhood. Hamilton County where he re-
sides, has given majority OF nine hundred
against him-and the next county, Butler
has gwen majority of 1900 against him
double, in both counties to what wars Civ
en- a few weeks previnus, against Vance, the
Harrison candidate for Governor. Now
see how it is with his rival; Albany county,
where Mr.. Van Buren, resides, though
generally whig, has given Mr.. Van Bnren a
majority of about seven hundred votes.
And the whig county of Columbia, lin
which is Klnderhook, the viilag. where he
was horn and brought up,) has given 652
majority for Van Buren,. Such are the
testimonials which the people who know
him best, without reference to party, have
rendered to his eminent talents, his uniorm
democratic principles, and to his spotess
private character.
