RFPUBLCANs OF NEW YORK the mon who
engineer the opposition TO your State Ticket have
deliberately resolved to beat you by deception and
fraud. Is this harsh charge Look at the un-
deDiable fact,

or mainly local-that the moin question is one of
State economy and taxation. Yet the day after
Election and thsncefortb, they will claim every
vote for their ticket as given in support of TIE

III. The facts that the Canal Tolls have fallen

are harped on by these demasogues as proofs of
Republican Encouragement. They know this is
not true-know that this diminution of Tolls and
depreciation Of Stocks have resulted from influences
which affect the whole country, and depress the
syenues Of other Public Works and the securities
Of other States, quite as much as our own. Yet
they conceal this truth as much as possible, and

Taxpayers Of New-York Your last Legislature
dared confde in your intelligence and common

Grand Canal unfinished and parayzed, with the
Railroads each year diverting more and more Of ito
freight and gradually undermining its importance
