This is certainly a rich development for a handbill, and must bo of vital important to the pco-plo of the .S'lule. We hope tho Statesman does not tii i nk the Lomfnto Auditor of Franklin has made the some mistake! Nothing short of forty horse power would suilico to torture this into an argument against the Tax Law. Hut, tho Statesman aeeins equal to the task. If, as our neighbor supposes, the design was to mako votes for llioTax daw, it occurs to us that tho Auditor made a blunder, llo should have exempted Locofocos, and ihus secured their support This is electioneering handbill No. l,and will suffice to put voters on their guard. mmnmu IJi lii.KiJTIO.K lii!Tliltl..Jl Wo had intended sooner urging upon our friends, in all sections of the Slate, to send us in tiio earliest reliable intolligoncoof the result of the election that comes off in this Stato on 1 uosdny next.

Where nail facilities are not abundant a very litilo cxienae will enable our friends to place Ihoir information on tho main routes, where it will soon reaches. Wo rely much on our friends of tho press to aid in this work of collecting informalion touching tho result of the important contest so near at hand. Wo hopo they will be prumpt, and wo shall reciprocate; as promptly. (Jood, bad, or indifferent, let us have all the news. Jllnrrliinil Klrr llo I'liinl Itcnull.

A friend wriles us from Meigs county, that iho difficulty in llnil district in ru-fercuco to liepresenlalivu has been settled, by tho withdrawal of Messrs. Smith and Downiso, from tho canvass, lion. Thomas Irh.i has been placed ontholickol as Iho Whig candidate for Representative. Mr. Irvin is an excellent man, and wo hope Iho Whigs of that district, the friend of Messrs. Smith and Downing, banishing all hard feelings, will rally to the support of Iho Whig ticket lly their voluntary withdrawal, they have rendered themselves worthy of the confidence and regard of the Whigs of tho wholo State. Tho complexion of tho House vuij dciend on that district. It. U. Ilnrntr. This gentleman has a column and a half in last evening's Statesman, undor his own name, that purports to ben reply to an ar icle that appeared in tho Journal a month since, llo has waited a considera ble length of tune, that election day might approximate near enough to prevent a further oxposuro of his rascality. Willi all this time mi his hands, however, ho makes out a defence so lame as to excito more of contempt than any othor sensation. He is llippant in tho use of epithets, and affects to think it peculiarly hard that thoso who wcro appuintcd to examine into tho management of tho Public Works of the State, are not willing to engage in tho white washing labors characteristic of those who havooc WhlK liclulions m( llauiillon Junty The Vhl rinll'orin! Although tho Resolutions adopted by the Locofo-co nominating Convention of Hamilton county, have not boon permitted to suu tho light through tho Statesman and several other locofuco paiera of Ohio that feel the necessity of avoiding too much plainness of Bpcech, it affords us peculiar pleasure lo lay before our rcuders iueverv section of the Slate, tho sentiments of tho Whigs of Hamilton, showing as they do, that the Whigs of Ohio find olio platform broad enough for them, and tbut they stand on common ground on tho ull-importaiit Currency question. The Whigs of Ohio have nothing to conceal on this and tho other important questions of the day. They ciisiunally been appointed by Ins own political friends 1 "peak out boldly and plainly, and breathe one spirit, larruiuii", Irmrmbrr, Tint Nntivinn and Whiggery arc ono and the Ksuie thing, and Ihal they botli advocate the doctrine, Hocrclly, if not openly, that you shall reside Iwenty-mie years ill the country before you can vole.

Such mingling, bare faced work will make it a laughing slock of those (iunnan voters it seeks to dupo. See how plain a talu shall put down this miserable fabrication. At a mass W'Aiff muling held at Philadelphia, in the I.ocotiwo suburbs uf which city, tho excesses that Imvo been attributed to the Natives were comniil-led.lho following resolution was adopted by acclamation a few days sincn: Uml, That tho Third (Native) parly which hns snruuir un, is not the Whig parly, ami on thut ground is not ours; that it does not bear our name, avow our principle, or maintain our measure; that it is local, teniH,mry, nml of ono idea, while the Whig mrly is of and for all uur country, through all times, and in all emergencies.'' The till. ILiirsl of 1'ublle tV.rlss. The Statesman, of last evening, makes a very equivocal effort lo brouk Iho force ul' the charges that have been made through our columns against the latu Ikmnl of Public Works. Those charges, as wo have already repeatedly staled, aro based ou tho records of the examining committee, and thoso records the Statesman could examine just as readily as the Journal. Wo do not wonder that our neighbor has doubt, about the wrnurietii of llio publication of tho facts that have appeared in our columns. He would have preferred, much, that Ihey bad reiniinud unno ticed until alter tho election ; although Iho question whether the old board shall bo re-mstaled, is ono that the puoplo are called ukiii to decide at this elec tion ! Affain and again liavo the people of tho Slato de manded an investigation into llio affairs of the Uoard of Public Works. They had tho best of reasons for knowing Ihal all was not as it should be. r.vcll Au dilor llnuuuii himself, had boon forced lobring giavo charges ut inal-adminisiraiiun against some of llio members of llio Hoard. Although those wlm, until the lost sussion had, fjr a long series of years, tho control of one or both branches uf llio Legislature, affected tu be perfectly iri'Uing and uiirium to liavo an invoilig ilion, they so managed as to prevent an full and thorough examination from being made. During tho last session, however, ono of the leaders of tho locofoco portion of Iho legislature ventured not only to proclaim a willingness lo see such an invest! ation, but introduced rosolulioiia declaring tho tiffTMily of an investigation. The Whigs acknowledged tho necosailyaml accomled the proposition for an investigation. The mailer was put into slnpo and brought to vote. It is true, a in tit portion only of the minority were inducec to cuuio up lo the work on a final vote; and Mr. AHcunoi.o was made lo feel, very sensibly, that he had (jwtrn ilw'laoiil erirrf, but a commission was apiointed, with all necessary pow- era. (If the fitness and honealy iff Ihosu appointed on tho commission no man then ventured to express a doubt, and it is only since it was found necessary to break Iho force of tho farts placed on record by this cnnuniitoe, that Iho locofoco papers have ventured lo aliuso ils members personally and express thoir ailonunmrnl that such a commilteo should liavo been appointed ! A reference lo the Statesman itself at llio timo of their appointment and for months afler the adjournment of tho Legislature, will show Iho juilico of theso remarks and the correctness of our positions. Tho voiors of the Slate, whoso aim is lo (ret at tho IruH, will draw their own deductions. to Butisty the demands of a people indignant al tho enormities practised. The gentleman towards whom ho directs his spleen, and to whom he ascribes the nr-ticlo in tho Juurual, wo would inform him nevor saw the article in question until nfler it appeared in print, nnd we do not even know that he was in tho city at tho time of its publication. Thus his attempt to work up a litlto sympathy on tho Bcore of persecution, "personal and political enmity," is nsigual failure. There was nothing of personal annuo in our article. It was based on facts. It dealt only in facta and figures attested by men who had nothing to gain, no persunal feeling lo gratify, and whoso characters are above reproach, us we havo every reason to suppose. Those facts aro matters of record, and when all tho dealings of this dishonest and unprincipled party scavenger, w it li tho Slnte,shall bo submitted to thetax payors of llio State; they will bo ablo to judgo whclfier ho has been dealt with loo plainly. One word us to the pretended statements of Mr. K. (J. llirney. llo was chargoil with having drawn from the Stule Treasury money fur work never dune. Does he disprovo it ? Not at all ; as every man who reads his scurrillous article must admit. It was alleged that he had charged more than 1uVfecn thousand dollars for a job that, in the opinion of competent moil, would havo yielded a fair profit atour thousand. Does ho deny it ? Yes, ho "ioiiWs" whether competent men gave such testimuny ! Tho build ing of thu dam was reported as a part of tho contract und work of llrown, Anderson & Co. We af firmed, from tho recorded evidence, that they never had anything to do with Iho job, but that it was dono by Harney himself, in connection with abrother-in-law. How docs ho get nruuiid Ibis fact? Does he pretend that llrown & Co. had Iho contract and performed the wurk? No, for that could be loo promptly disproved by the persons concerned, nnd has already been disproved by tho oath of ibis verybrother-in-law of his. Ho says that wo attempted to justify the inference that his broiber-in-1 iw swore that llio work was done by himself and Harney. Wo attempted no such thing. Wo asserted thai thu ttork was done by Harney, in cunnectMii with hisbrother-in-law: and llnit it tens so done and that this llarucy did render ihu biU and pocket the enormous plunder, is susceptible of dciuniwlriiliou palpubto as Iho sun at noon-day. Hut, buw does he get around tho fact lly saying that ho "never had any connection with that or nny other contract!" Miscrahlo evasion. Thai he had no contrart wo need not to ho informed. If the job had been let out by a fuir public contrart, he would never havo succeeded in getting paid haff a ''":tn '""'i ' 'he expense of the Slate. Wo shall not devote titno and space to the items he has trumped up so ingeniously, just on the ovo of the election. They uro matters of record and will come forth in due timo. Hut llio way ho meets tho charge that ho was paid for UiiO cubic yards of wutcr excavation, when he excavated but .W cubic yards, is Dimming. On this single item the excess of ehargu was thrx thousand uVur only ! Wo do not wonder Ihal he ibais not even attempt to provo that ho performed half Ihu work fur which lio has drawn such a snug sum. Tho way he slips around lliecliargo of having drawn from the Statu ! cts. a pound tor spikes for which ho paid tho blacksmith nine cfa., is also decidedly rich. Hut wo loavo the public to cuinparo these ilems and draw their own deductions. Visit mt u (tfvrruiui'ul ruurtiau.irr t The arrival of Hon. U'ji. Mkdii.u in this city cu route lot Lancaster, Fairliold County, was heralded forth a few days since. It is known, wo presume, that Mr. Mudill is Assistant Voit Master liunorul, and that his duties requiro his constant attcudaueo at Washingluu. What has brought him into this Slate, just at this particular jiiiicturu, wo have not been advised. Until will strike all as a little singular. Is this high government ollicer acting tho part of a political missionary, intrusted with a work in connection wiih the approaching election? Would he so far set at naught all sense uf propriety, and of fer audi an indignity tu llio voters of this State, as lo make an attempt to inllueuco tho onming election ? II is the adiuinistr.itiuii so far transcended iu riglilssud privileges, and transgressed the rights and inlurests uf the lieoplc ol Ohio, as lo semi ntiu of its olliccrvj to dictate to any portion of tlicin hew Ihey shall vote at the ensuing election? Wo trust not. Hut wo must repeat that this visit of Mr. Medill,nt this particular juiicliiro is a singular ono and de mands explanation. Not long since, a Mr. llrown, who has an ullico at Washington, paid a visit to In diana to regulate parly matters there to suit tho administration, it is said, ll is time an inquiry was instituted into these extraordinary movements. -ft.Tlritaia. The clccliun is held in this Stale on tho samo day tho election is held in (lino, if we aro not mistaken. Thore is but littlo excitement ill the Stale; but the efforts of the enemies of tho Tariff, at Washington, have turned the current ugainst thu administration, and the efforts of Mr. Hiicbaiian, who is now in that Stato, (doubtless on n political mission as, in theso days of a spurious democracy, Iho government hesitates not lo interfere in the State elections) to bet ter llio prosKicls of Ihu faithful will, it is thought, bo vain. Pennsylvania cannot be induced to sup port tho aduiimstrntion a singlo moment alter its hostility to tho present TurilV assumes an nclivo form. Tiiuro nro divisions in several locoloco districts, and tlm leading locofoco organ at Harriahurg already admits that tho Senato will bo lost! Tho effort of the Whi'.'s, therefore, is now directed to llio redemp tion of the llouso, and if llio Washington Union will only continue to denounce tho Tariff in ils accus tomed lone a while longer, wo snail not tie w ithout a victory in tho Old Keystone State.

Thoso ull'irU so fur us wo Imvo observed, seem to bo signal failures.

Tins shows bow llexiblo Ijocofoco ullico seeker is, when tho stiito of public sentiment does not exactly accord with tiio expres sions of thoie who n.mme to lead the whole tmrty. We wouM ndviso our Whig friends in tho central and southern sections uf llio State just to -mint to the fact nhovo alluded to, and (he resolutions of somo of tho " faithful " on thu Reserve, when anything is said in their prcRcnce about tho votes of Whigs in relation to tliu Uluck liws. one determination.

They content ihomuulves with the cry of "Repoal," but either because thuy have an alternative that thoy dure not present, or because tliey cannot devise and cannot agree an any thing acceptable to tho great ninm of tho people, ol both parlies, they skulk iu tho dark. Is this tho part of holiest men? Could anything mark more distinctly tho dilferonco betweon tho position of parties, nnd tho soundness of that assumed by tho Whig? Iu a few, a very few inntancos, a few of our opponents, in County Convention, Imvo ventured t declare in favor of Banks; but what kind of Hanks, what kind of a system, they Imvo not ventured to disclose; leaving themselves ample latitude to escape, if tho re quisitions of tho party leaders and the exigencies of another contest should render it necessary. 1 he Statesman itself, a mouth or two since, directly after it passed into the bauds of ils present editor, ventured to throw out an ambiguous hint, which might possibly bo construed into nn acknowledgment of the necessity of some kind of Bulking itiHtitutions but it failed to meet with a Mspoiuo among the parti zan presses of tho opjMf-ition,and was denounced by some of the boldest, and it has not ventured to breathe a syllublo to that ellect since. Several meetings held iu Hamilton county and in the north-west ern part of tho State, where our opponents have a decided predominance in uuuhorst th) loaders have ventured to speak out. And what is their lauuage ? In one county they declared for making tfie areata Hon of ptiper money a Penitentiary ujjince.

Ou tho very ground where tin -ho sentiments wero promulgated, by a Convention called for the nomination uf Whig candidates, in compliance with the demands of the honest voters of Hamilton, the following declaration of truthlul sentiments has been fearlussty proclaimed.

That when Civilization rccommnnc ed her career, and knowledge visited the people the invention of Hunks, of Hills of Kxclmnge, and of pupor money redeemable in specie, gave wings to Commercu and to tho Arts, and strength to Industry, and that while, like steam-power, it has occasional ovils, like that also, it has been a commercial agonl of vast vnluc to ti e world, iniuiiteriug to its physical development, and to that great Human Progress which men of all degrees and all parties feel, udmire nnd praise. tfth. iiso!vt'l, That tfiis great clement of commerce is, iu our ago and our Republic, beneficial in its effects necessary to tho business uf men in societyuseful to thu operations or (joveriimeul, and formidable only lo the worst of demagogues.

I.owlt, Mtua., as ll IVni, nnd mm ll In! We find in the Cincinnati Gnzetto somo interest ing stutistics of " Lowell as it was and as it is, copied from a hook written by the Rev. Mr. Miles, nnd just published. Theso statistics a Hord a most striking illustration of tho great results that enn be ac complished for tho industrial interests of tho coun try, by American enterprise, whon properly fostered by the Government. Tho population of Ijowell, in lH2i, was ftro hundred. The year previous it was a barren and sandy plain. Poor furins were bought up at 100 dollars per acre, in order to commence tho great work that has been performed. Iu 182(1, tho population had increased to twenty-five hundred. In IHW it was incorporated as a city with a population of more than uvtiileen tlmmund! It has a population now of more than ; (0,000. Of this population, v'M9 ar0 females, employed in factories. Three thousand men aro employed in tho same establishments. A capital of $l'i,000,(K)0 iscmployed in the vnriuus establishments, and ,-I.7J,tOO junla of cloth nro manufactured every week. The wages exceed $1,500,000. The nmuunt of farm products consumed annually, surpasses almost credibility. Extravagant talcs as to tho length of time the op eratives have to labor havo been told. Tho Rev. Mr. Miles states in his work that thu mills run 12 hours and 10 minutes, and that the average timo uf tabor is 10 tours nnd DO mmide. Tho manufactur ing portion of iho population is staled by physicians to bo much tho most fieaUhy, and very few placet can compare with Lowell in point of health. Every, guard is thrown around tho morals of the fonmlu operatives. The following is a quotation from this work by Mr. Miles; and we commend tao whole work to thoso who havo been drugged by the falsehoods of tho eiKinicB of American Industry: "Of the C,;i'20 female operatives in Lowell, Musa- chusetts furnishes one-eighth, Maine one-fmiTth, New Hampshire one-third, Vermont one-filth, lrn land one-fourteenth, nil other places, principally Camtda, one-seventeenth.

The DuTir of American Womkn to TiiKin Country" is iho title page of a little work before us. We have examined it with deep interest, and as the result of that examination earnestly recommend it as worthy the considerate attention of not only American women, but their husbands and brothers. It is a thrilling appeal, on forced by arguments and facts drawn from the history of events within n few yenrs, fu our own country, to illustrate the great ne cessity of giving to tho youth of the country a proper moral and intellectual training. Thu lending events of tho reign of terror in France, aro related with a vividuesi almost painful ; and the train of causes that ted to the excesses of that dark and bloody period, ure introduced lo onforco ihe lessons the work would inculcate. "American women, will you save your country ?" asks tho author. Tho question is an important one, nnd thoso who read this little book will arise with a conviction that it is not asked in vain. It may be had at the book store of Whiting tf Huntington."

Ho parades tho voto of the Senate lo show thnt no locofoco voted fur iho bill on it final pnssagc. Mr. Armstrong, whoso name is there recorded in the negative, came out in defence of the law a few days since. What mistotements have been made does not appear from his communication. Had lie, however, felt dis posed to publish tho House vote, ho would have found a strong array of locafocos voting for the re- concidcratinn of the bill after it had been lout in that body.

Ri solved, Thnt from our knowledge of the coun try, we have no doubt a route can be found for tho proposed road that will not only bo loaxihie, but on which it can bo made nt less exienne than any nuid of equal length now in uso in the United States. liesolced, That from the fertility ol tho mil, and the character and amount of the surplus products of the region through which the road would run, and from the great and rapidly increasing intercourse between tins city and Columbus and Lineuiuaii, which tho facilities of a Railroad communication would indefinitely augment, we confidently believe the stock in such a road would produce liberal if nut high proliU. Resulvtd, That a due repnrd to our own interestji, and to our positive and relative position among tho cities of the Lakes, imperatively demands tho most strenuous exertions of our citizens individually and collectively, for the early commencement and tqieeily Sl'iik Ii:atu.
