The Collectors Organ on the Rampage.

= = s
Some ilhterate dunderpate who does up the
slang for the organ Of the District Collector,
Qhe Somerset Herald has been striving, for
month past, to attract our attention in his di-
rection. We viii, once for all, crafty his am
bition to be noticed and give him the bes,eE: of
few brief sentences.
Like the ostrich, which, hiding its head in
the sand, inagines that its whole body is OBJ
scured from view, this scribbling simpleton
thinks that by charging fraud upon Demo-
Gratis, the iniquity of his own party, in cheat
ing the majority of the people Of this Repre-
sentative district out of their rights, will be
hidden from that public scrutiny which he has
such good reason to fear. But, Ike the bird
of the desert, he only exhibits himself Ii his
most ridiculous aspect.
Ii is your party, Mr. Abolition Ostrich, that
is guilty of fraud. You know that there were
hundreds of illegal votes cast by your partizans
in the army You know that many of the re-
turns from the army in your own county and
gality. You know that your friends IN the
House OF Representatives, frauIulently refused
10 admit the persons shown 20 be elected 10
that body, for this district, by the only legal
cert fcate of election issued by the district re-
turn Judges. But these are not the grosssst Of
your frauds. You sent congressional return
judge to Chanhersbnrg who refused TO meet
with the remainder Of the regular district re-
turn judges and who conspired with other per-
sons not elected district return judges by any
board Of county ret lrn judges in the district,
to defraal Gen. Cofroth out of bis certificate
Of election. You withheld, through! the con-
spiracy Of your return judge with these bogus
judges, the return Of Somerset county for Con |
gress, thus preventing the board Of district re-
turn judges from computing that return, and
compelling he Governor 10 omit this congress /
SIGNAL district from lis procIamation
Fraul, Yaa talk about f,audI You, whose
garments reek with the stencil of conspiracy;
whose palms dnp with the foulness of fraud |
which blots from the Governors proclamation
a congressional district why, your hand should /
falter for very shame, when you write the !
word Your irickery was too bald for even
Gov. Curtin 10 endorse. You had every ti.ing
aTangei, as you thought, 10 enable the Gov
ernor to proclaim the election Of your candi- I
date for Congress. Nay, yop cried .'fraud"
most yocifeTously. when Democrats panars De. !
MED that he was elected. But your own Gov /
ernor dings the lie in your teeth and refuses to
proclaim your candidates elected. Your 9,ga
Curtin brands you as gaiy Of froula, and treats
yoar Jogus board Of Congressional ret4ra Judges
as a conspiracy.
Now, 90 and stick your head in the sand !
again, and croak about fraud" till you ere |
hoarse, bu; don't expect to be noticed by US in
the future, till you mead your spelling, your
facts, your logic and your manners. Va!e |

Mcclure VS., Mcclure.

In the last Franklin REPOSITORY, Mr. A. K.
Mcclure makes the following statement:
-'Mr. Meyers, thinking that some
things might be done as we'll as others, procur-
ed coutessedly false return.
See how plain tale will put this calumnia-
tor down. During the debate, at the organi-
cation of the House, upon the question wheth.
er Meyers and Finday. or Ross and A Armstrong.
should be admitted to seats, Mr. Mcclure made
this declaration
THERE IS NO FALSE RETURN Be
FORE THIS HOUSE. | hold and stated as
distinctly as The English language could make
it, that the return made by the Judge for SOM
crsct county, is part Of this return 4 con-
jRict is thus presented upon the face of this re-
turn, and, therefore, as not the falSe return can
templated IN the Act ct' assembly," (Sse Leqs-
latrt Record, page 6.
Now, one of two things is certain: either
the position assumed by Mr.. Mcclure. in the
House, which was made the ground Of Ross
and Armstrong; admission, was wrong and
false, and, therefore fraud upon the people
of this Representative district, or, the state
ment which he makes in the Repository, copied
above, Isl deliberate and unqualified falsehood
viii Mr.. Mcclure please tell US when ho spoke
the truth, in the House, when in orier to carry
hls point, he declared there was 'llo false re-
turn" OF in the Repository, when, for the SAX.
Of abusing us, lo fatty coniradicted himself,
by saying there ,cs,e "a false return!'

CooL.-The Franklin Repository affects to
think that Messrs. Meyers and Findlay were
fearful that if they contested the seats Of Messrs.
Ross and Armstrong, the contest .'wcuId result
in an exposition of their (the contestants)
frauds" Messrs. Meyers ard Findlay carried
their struggle for their rights, just far enough
to ascertain that they were presenting their case
before packed jury. with whom law, precedent
and facts have not a feathers weight, when par
ty interests are thrown upon the other sida Of
the scale. That discovery satisfied them that
it were vain to make contest Besides. 10

tesants would have been compelled to 90 to

sons, they did not choose to make any further
efforts TO obtain their seals, but, preferred in
the name Of the defrauded majority, to appeal
for justice to the people of the district. The

s0lutely refreshing.
