The New Berlin Heimbach Faction
and tAe Railroad.


We have again and again through our
paper given the positive proof, that the
New Berliners and their newspapers per-
suadel the Commissioners to make the
500, 200 Railroad debt. And now, after
they have succeeded, and, as they say,
fastened this enormous debt of S200, 900
on the people Of the county," they are
corrup. and dishonest enough, to make the
attempt to persuade the people. tha. thew
were and arc opposed to Il, they make al
attempt to deceive the people, by denying
their own acts this they do for the pur-
nnse of sainino rn,.,.'--;.,- .-:'h 'i-e voters,
so that they can lead them into another
project they are determined to carry into
effect-that is, to compel the taxpayers
in the county to pay for splendid new
public buildings for New Berlin. To give
some appearance to the deception they are
attempting to practice on the people, they
now make great noise about the Rail
road And TO make their deception look
more plausible, they have, in sneakinc
and under handel way, commenced some
prosecutions. They have been dragging
around the corrupt Geo. Heimbach for
some weeks; h,m they have given clear,
and they cor end, that he has done nothing
that is wronr Vow we say the people do
know, that Htil, zach is no: snch man
as the faction rcpr-scnts him to be, for the
people know thai Heimbach is one of the
most corrupt men in the State Every
one knows, if this faction will bring
hundred prosecutions, and make ten thou
sona dollars cost on tie coan.y, yes, if they
would prosecute ece.y man az tie county,
rho is olpose,t to tie ra@co'ity ,'ractised at
New Berlin, and convict them all, AND
KEEP HEIMBACH CLEAR, then the bonds
would be good, and would have to be paid
Every one must see that this New Berlin
faction has brought suits, not with the OBJ
/ ject to free the people Of the county from
the Railroad, or to injure the Railroad
subscription or Bonds; they brought those
prosecutions to carry some other project,
which had nothing to do with Railroad
subscriptions. 1t is to destroy the inhu-
ence and character Of the men who have
opposed tbs New Berlin Heimbach COM
! bipation H. tier secret and UIderhanded
schemes to tax the people Of the county, to
erect splended j'aiace to hold court in
Every intelligent man Ia the county must
/ be satisfied tlat this was their object in
/ commencing prosecutions. They are the
very last men who rcud do anything to
destroy or injure Tie Railroad debt. AS
they have given Hclmbach clear, and are
sustaining and supporting him, this fact
must convince every man that they have
not commenced 'his prosecution to affect
the Railroad Bonds or subscription, for the
very man they most convict, if they expect
to injure the Railroad bonds, they have
given clear, and are using him Helm bach, }
as their witness and tool, to take some re
venge at men who are opposing them in
their schemes to bring enormous taxes on
the people.-.S,l;asyrove Demokrat
The SUsoUEHANNA RAILROAD.-The
Harrisburg Cmioa states that the work
upon this important line of road between
Bridgeport and Sunbury, is proceeding
steadily, and has made as rapid progress
as the summer season would admit of.
About 100000 have been paid out, and
a large part of the route is now graded
The expectation is that the road will be
completed in another year
