ANTI-RENT INcENDIARIsM. write to
acquaint you with the last outrage committed by
the Anti-Renters in our County 1t seems thew
not satisfied with the blood of Steele, shed at
MONDAY, and they now take the hour of midnight
to complete their work OF burning the property
of private citizens. The barn of Mr. Robert Nc
Farland, OF Bovina, containing about 20 tons of
hay, together with large quantity of grain, &c,
was last night entirely consumed by band of
these cowardly assassins. The cause Of this new
outrage is supposed to arise from the fact that
Mr. Mcfarland had entertained some of the
Sheriff's force, while they were in pursuit of
prisoners, aud provided them with refreshments.
Mr. McF. had also expressed his disapprobation Of
the proceedings Of the Anh-Renters, and some of
his family had taken part In public meeting
lately held at Bovina, on the occasion of the LATE
tragedy at Andes Two attachments of Cant
Cooks company left here to-day in pursuit Of
prisoners.
Lieut.. Steele, Of whom spoke in former let.

If the reports from Harrisburg, have any
truth in them, there is every reason TO believe
that the interest on the State Debt, which will
become due on The first Of February, will be
paid There is now upwards Of 100000 in
the Treasury, which. during the presen, month,
will be increased 10 one million Of dollars. The
Harrisburg Argus, Gov Por'er's organ, says, ii
has every reason 10 believe that the interest
will no, only be paid now, bu, perpelually here

The Election Frauds i'm Pcnnsy-


The National Clay Club Of Philadelphia have
issued an address TO The Wings of that State
exposing the wholesale Frauds by which The
vote for Polk and Dallas was so swelled at the
recen, Election. We have room for but hrlei
summary Of il, bu, ,ha, canno, fail to be conclu-
sive.
The Population and Vote Of Pennsylvania
are known TO increase in the ratio OF ii IA per
cent. every four years. The Presidential Elec-
tion of $40 was mos, exciting and equal con-
test in Pennsylvania, drawing ou, her whole
vote, and showing very nice balance OF par
ties. That vote, with the legitimate ratio OF In-
crease, shows how many votes were honestly
pclled in the late Election.
The Total vote Of 1910 was 2ss,O38
Add II Ia per cent, natural increase 32,404
And the total vote of 1874 should have
been 32o,442
Ru, The vote actually poled was 33l, ,s7l
Excess over the vote of $40 aud na,u-
raj increase ll,42o
Now the Who vote Of 1910 was l44,Ol9l
Add IL ID per CT. natural increase l6,222
And il should be in 1874 l6O,24l
The actual vote for Clay was l6l,2C3
E,ce,s over natural increase 962
The Wings gained in Philadelphia (City and
County, about 1000. and lost in The State by
Abolition abou, 1000, and by hostility to Ma
livism nearly as many Tho Wing vote Of 1874
was jus, about what any thoroughly informed
and capable man would have computed ii with
all the data before him. Ii is well known that
there were in 1874 many changes-open, pro-
claimed, no,orious-to the Wing side, while
there were certainly fewer The other way-nol
dozen tha, were announced in the journals.
Now let US examine the Loco Foco vote:
Total for Van Buren in ls4O 1865
Add ii IA per cent. increase l6, l63
Legitimate Loco vote in 1874 l59,S39
Vote actually returned l67,535
Excess over honest vote 1886
Now let US see how this was accomplished:
arc tWShiy NOuuiOS III 'HS O'o'O "A'S"
gave majorilies for Harrison in ls40, polling
l25,l69 votes. These Counties have now
polled l3s,s4S votes, or just abou, / IA per
cent. increase on the vote of 1910. But the
remaining or Loco Foco Counties, Excluding
Philadelphia from either list,) poiled in 1910
1868 votes, and now poll l5O,46l. having
increased their vote 24,o76, or about twice as
much as The Wing Counties! Thus was man
ufaciured the 6,332 majority for Polk.
Early in the canvass Secret Circular was
issued by the Loco-Foco Stale Committee 10
the initiated throughout the State, directing
them 10 secure the Judges Of Elections, (chosen
in the spring. and they ,could haze an easy uic-
tory in November' The order was obeyed, and
the resuI, followed, Pike, Monroe. and several
other wholly Loco-Foco coun,ies, polled 25
TO 33 per cent more votes than eUer before and
| in the towns where there are no Wings II all,
or mex, to none, they easily doubled any former
vote They polled more votes in Pike and
Monroe than the whole number of axables in
those counties, according 10 the las, enumera.
ton! Thus was swindled Pennsylvania made
TO roll up a strong majority for an an'i-Pro'ec'
