ELi.C E,iCCiiGn News.

The Wing "Roorbacks' are now busilv engaged
in abricatng and circulating false news of the results
of elections. for the purposes of humbug. The Ohio
State Central Committee have. among others, been
guilty of rascality. Thousands of false extras or
slips, pretending to give returns of elections ia
vorable to Clay. have been circulated all along
the Ohio river and probably elsewhere. Look out
for them and believe Wing ertrd whatever. One
instance of this vany Is thus alluded 10 in the PHI
ladclphia Ledger, well known neutral paper:
INFAMOUS Trenty.fre Dollars Rcrard-A gen
tlenan brought the Ledger Office and left with
last evening" single column slip. purporng TO give
the returns of the election in various counties in this
State, and headed Extra Ledger Slip, which he said
purchased of boy who had numbers OF them
for sale, at Walnut street wharf. at the time the Pilot
Line for New York started, many of which pur-
chased by passengers going East We were inform
ed also that the boy who had them for sale left with
the boat The returns were put down IN such way
as to give Gen. Alarkle large majority, footing up
thousand three hundred and fifty majority In
his favor. so far heard from, with the following
comments underneath
The returns they come in from the west
calculated TO brighten the prospect of llr. Markle,
whose friends agrceahly disappointed at the
suits IN Allegheny Somerset and other counties.
There seems to be doubt of this gcnilcnan's
election"
The slip Is in large type plea size. bungingly cot
up and was evidently issued for some gambling pur-
pose, by bacegs. advantage being taken Of the rep
u;ation Of the Ledger for accuracy and in giving
the returns, to accomplish Tie purpose The inen-
ton and the means Of accomplishing 1t are equally
Infamous on the part of the villain villains who
Pcrrotratcd the forgery. and they should be exposed
for the benefit of the public
The propricors of the Public Ledger therefore offer
twenty-five dollars reward for the detection and
vicon of the forgcr and printer of the slip or such
Il.
on the public should not 90 UNPUBLISHED, and shall not.
If we detect the per7otrator
