After our paper had gone 10 press, we
received the following communications of
JAcoB NJ HALDEMAN. Esq. Of this place,
and others to whom Joseph w. Patton,
the Wing candidate tor Canal Commis-
sioner, was indebted at the time he be-
came bankrupt, who seeing him unjust
ly assailed, have voluntarily come forward
and rendered their testimony in his be-
half, that those who are not personally
acquainted with his merits and high STAN
ding may not be imposed upon by the
nnprineipied ISLANDERS of the Locofoco
Press.

We should have mentioned in the

went into bankruptcy he showed losses to
the amount of $S, ,9O0-which he had
earned by dint Of severe application TO
business, and commendable enterprise
Besides this, ne had the misfortune 10 be
in bad health from 1910 till 1874 which
prevented him from making money and
paying off much Of his Indebtedness.
MIR. Patton has thus been compelled to
bring his private affairs before the public.
1t has been done reluctantly; but we are
mistaken If the voters of Pennsylvania
do not administer severe rebuke to the
authors and abettors OF such prosecutions.
