understood the true position in which I was
placed. They appeared to consider it ne
cessary to so far ruin my reputation that ought
I could say in relation to them would bo of no
avail. They acted as if they considered their
safety dependant on their success in affixing
infamy and odium on my character. How
far they hare succeeded depends upou a ver
dict of the people. They will pass upon it af
ter they shall have perused the statement and
evidences I shall lay before them. Sensible
of having committed a great moral wrong, I
can now only appeal to a forgiving and gen
erous people ; and if they can find auy exten
uation, in consequence of my ardent tempera
meut, which in the enthusiasm of party ex
citement and party strategy, led me into ex
cesses, my object, so far as regards myself,
will be accomplished. With politics I have
done I have no hopes or expectations from
party. The disclosures I shall make will b
free from any bias, and on mature delibera
tion, after bavins carefully collected the facts
and memoranda upon which to base it. I
know that fearful odds are against me I am
almost friendless and alone. Opposed to me
I have wealth, character, influence, public aud
private station and trust. Fearful odds !
But, believing in the maxim, that truth is
mighty and will prevail," I enter the lists, con
sidering that it is never too late to redress a
wroug, or do a good and justifiable action.
Independent of any evideuce, let us apply
the ordinary rules of logic to the transactions
in relation to these frauds, and see whether
they are for or agiinst the truth of my statement.
If the statement which I made to Mr J. D.
Stevenson in relation to these frauds was not
true, (and it has always been denied by the
leaders of the whig party,) w hy was I removed
from office? It was admitted that I had faith
fully and ably performed the duties of ihe sta
tion I held, and if the charges against me
were false, then I was a persecuted man, and
as they admitted I was competent, aud had
rendered essential services to the party, was it
not their duty to sustain me? I had their
written acknowledgment of mv services, not
in measured terms, but iu terms of unqualified
approbation. Let us also look at the
other side of tho question. If the c harges
were true, and known to Governor Seward
and the prominent leaders of the whig party
(which I solemnly aver they did know,) were
they not bound to sustain me, iustend of at
tempting to degrade me and leaving me to
contend against the other patty unaided
(except secretly) aud alone? It is well
known that the whig leaders would neither
openly carry mo th ough my difficulties, nor
permit the whig party to rally around me. If
I alone was guilty if they had uo par
ticipation iu the frauds if they were ignorant
of the transactions if I accused and charged
upon the innocent a gross violation of the
laws of the land then I deeply injured them.
I merited their severest censure. Why, then,
Hid they secretly aid and assist me, but pub
licly calumniate me? Such was the course
they pursued, until they supposed their pub
lic slanders had so far blasted my reputation
that their victim could be sacrificed without
danger to themselves.
Unless I was guilty of the charges against
me, there is no reason vhy I should not hive
whig party. During a period of nine years,
I labored like a slave, as thousands can attest,
in the organization of that party; and after
the result of the election in 1S3S, I was so
licited to accept office, and declined it. 1
was satisfied with the business in which I was
then engaged ; and subsequent events have
convinced me, that the most unfortunate era
of my life was that in which I accepted office.
It was conceded that I merited the office ; it
was conceded that the duties were ably
and faithfully discharged ; yet I was removed
from it before the expiratiou of the term for
which I had been appointed. Was there not
some cause why I was removed ? What was
that cause ? If I was guilty of the frauds
charged upon me, wai I alone guilty ? were
they known only tome? If innocent, why
remove me from office, aud thus add the per
secution of my own party to that of my politi
cal opponents ?
Those are questions which I wish the pub
lic to solve. If those charged as nnrticinators
i
tUe election frauds were innocent, why did
tot court investigation, nay demand it ?

was their guarantee for my silence. Ihe in
dictment was pending, and they knew that a
word araiust them would furnish evidence
against "myself. They also knew that the
statute of limitations would soon protect them
from any indictment for the part they acted in
the frauds for which I was indicted. That
time expired the beginning of November,
1841. Three atttempts were made by my
counsel, James M. Smith, jr. Esq., for my
discharge, urging at each time either a trial or
a discharge from the indictment; but it was
deferred by the Court from term to term,
until the statute of limitations would protect
the persons implicated, and then my discharge
was granted I! !
For sometime after the trial, my confede
rates ceased to hold any communication with
me in relation to the elect ioh frauds. But a
circumstance occurred "which brought them t
again to ask of me a favor, humbled as . I was
TrarnaJcd upon as 1 had been, I had still, as
they knew, ihe power to haim. 1 had ceitain
papers in nry possession i jwhich were dan ger
ous to them. 1 was iu possesssiou of some
facts, aud they feared that information might
possibly leak out that would defeat the confir
mation of certain nominations under the gen
eral government. Again, therefore, uego
ciatious were set on foot, and I confess open
ly to the public, that, convinced as I had been,
by their acts, of their utter turpitude and treaeh-
eiy lowafd ni, I pTrrfcrraedly-crcceded to their
ofior, ami availed myself, by strsitngem of
additional evidence to fortify myself against
my powerful adversaries. Their foot was on
my neck thousands to one against me; and
while thus prostrate, strategy was my only
hope of deliverance. How well my plau suc
ceeded, the public hereafter shall know. In
the expose which I feel it my duty to make,
many will be mentioned whose feelings I
would not willingly wound ; but it is not my
fault if others, less immediately connected
and inculpated in these transactions are point
ed out. The act was their own ; aud as mv
statement must be a faithful one, I cannot
pass them by. The whole transactions shall
now be given to the public, with such evi
dence as I have to substantiate the charges.
All I ask is a careful perusal, aud I appeal to
all who shall read these written, aud now
complete documents and narratives, to mark
the connected, unbroken aiid lucid chain of
evidence ihey present, of locality, uames',dates,
persons, incidents, conversations, &c, &c,
to say, whether they believe it to be within the
compass of possibility, that any human being,
however gifted iu intellect, base in moral de
pravity, or maddened by despair, could, with
the most fertile and ingenious inventive pow
ers, have fabricated such a story, or forged
suc h papers as are presented.
Almost all the original letters and memo
randa have come into tny possession within
a few days; aud those who deserve the cen
sure cannot now, by any any subterfuge, es
cape the just and merited reproach which a
people, jealous of their rights, will visit upon
those who attempt, by fraud, to wrest them
from them.
It will be seen in the sequel, that the re
proach and the iguorniuy which they strove to
fix on me alone, should be shared by others
who hold higher stations, and have more
sustain them, than myself; and though I am
aware of their participation will not screen
me from the reproach I merit for the part I
have performed, it will, at least, teach them
that neither wealth, place, influence, or perju
ry, are safe guara utees against the exposure
of guilt.
To the public I appeal, confessing and re
gretting my errors, and by their verdict I must
abide, be it for or against me.
Very respectfully,
JAMES B. GLENTWORTH.

As we have often before stated, no paper

Read the following extract from the Phil

giving an account of the distress brought
upon that city by the Banks:

IMI I
nese two institutions is now
fresh in our recollection. It is that of a man
about sixty years of age, who, besides rear
inor.ft family, had from his labor laid aside
about sixteen thousand dollars; ten thousand
of which he had invested in the stock of the
U. S. Bank, and about six thousand dollars
the" Schuylkill Bank. Of this amount, the
terest on which was deemed sufficient to
ipport him when unable longer to attend to
.a
usiness, three nunareu dollars could not
ow.be realized. The condition and slate of
fceling of that family may be more readily
Ovagined than described and this is no iso
lated casethere are hundreds equally, or
chore trying. Notwithstanding the disastrous
wreck of the Bank of the United States, there
ar those who would have its place substitu
ted with another, in other, and, as is suppo
se$, in more honest hands. They little
think that the system itself is erroneous and
corrupting, and that consequently there is
noTsafety in any hands under it. The only
certain mode of avoiding a repetition of the
great disaster is for the people to hold the
vast power to do mischief in their own hands."
'This is a picture of deplorable distress
fiis true, yet it is but a drop in the bucket,
compared to the losses, miser v, ruin and dis-
rtress, that the United States Bank has brought

land and France, and consequently in all the
countries intimately connected with" them by
trade. It has brought more distress and ru
in upon the world, than has ever yet been
produced by the villainy or perfidy of man.
From individuals to families, proceeding up
wards to villages, towns, counties, cities,
corporations, and sovereign Stales over ev
ery spot and corner of this once prosperous
and happy country, it has shed the curse of
its blighting mildew. It has not only ruined
the fortunes and hopes of millions, but beg
gartd thousands of widows, orphans and
helpless beings, whose little all, under a fjlse
confidence, had been placed in its charge;
but by the reckless falsehoods, knavery, bold
and contemptuous disregard of law and jus
tice, which characterized its mamgement;
and by its bribery and corrupt accommoda
tions to members of Congress, members of
several of the State Legislatures, editors of
Whig newspapers, electioneering dema
gogues, leading officers of many of the State
Banks, 3nd a secret standing army of agents
to corrupt voters at the public elections; it
has brought disgrace upon the country, and
sapped the foundation of public virtue, of
public morals, of public honor, of the obliga
tions of common honesty, and fidelity to the
Constitution and Laws of the country.
Glad are we to see that that ruffled-shirt-villain
and arch fiend, Nicholas Biddle, has
been presented by a Grand Jury of four and
twenty of his neighbors, under oath, as a
common cheat. The demands of justice the

punishment of this execrable knave! Who

it, with its gigantic money power, the moral

In the Carolinian of the 24th ultimo, was
a short notice of the. trade and brightening
prospects of. Fayetteville, which closed by
saying that the people of Cumberland should
send men to the next Legislature who knew
the rights of Fayetteville and would dare
maintain and urjje them, to the benefit of a
turnpike to the mountains. This part has
been construed by the gentlemen represent
ing this county in the last legislature, to cast
censure on them. Such was not the inten
tion. Our views were entirely prospective,
and not retrospective, in those remarks.
It is pretty well established that none but
Democratic candidates can be elected, and
our purpose is to get the people to pledge
these candidates to seize every opportunity
to strain every nerve in representing to
and urging upon the Legislature, the right
of Fayetteville to, and the absolute necessity
for, a Turnpike- It smacks of absolute neg
lect, that Fayetteville, the largest trading
and manufacturing town in the Stale, is
hardly approachable from the impassable state
of the roads during the winter, while Wil
mington and Italei:rh hive been helped to a
$6C0,C00 rail road. If the people of Cum
berland County are goiug to suffer such neg
lect any longer, they mav prepare themselves
to suffer any thing. Do they not see that
notwilhstandiniriKaleiirh has a rail road, she

dowtg '.their utmost to get a turnpike from the 1
Legislature, and unless Luuiberlanil bounty
takes a stand in the Legislature determined
to defend her rights, she will be chizelled
out of every thing.
The Glentworth Frauds.
We publish in another column, a letter
from James 15. Glentworth, in which he de
clares his determination to divulge the se
crets of that, diabolical scheme, known as the
"Glentworth F.-aucis," committed on the
elective franchise, by the leaders of the Whiur
party in New York, in 1S38 and '39, and
successfully practised in Ohio in 1840. This
letter is but the preface to his disclosures.
If practicable we shall lay them entire before
our readers.
Since writing the above, we notice that
the Glentworth disclosures have been pub
lished in pamphlet form, copy right secured.
Resumption.
The citizens of Philadelphia held a Town
meeting on the 30th Dec. 1S41, and adopted
resolutions concerning State faith, resump
tion Stc. Among them was one calling on
the Legislature to fix an early day for ihe
resumption of specie payment, by the Banks,
or to wind up their affairs.' Another resolu
tion appoints a committee to inquire into the
expediency of adopting the "Macon Specific;"
that is, that no money be received but coin,
or paper ni3de equal to coin by a discount.

poor Exchequer, which seems more mon
strous in his eyes than the most diabolical
scheme ever entertained. The Sub-Treasury
he thinks was a lamb to it. He thinks ihe
Sub-Treasury, afier all, was iiot -so bad as
the (lying) Whigs made it out to be. He
confesses now that he OPPOSED IT NOT
FJtOM WHAT IT WAS, but from what it
might become!!! This is something, at all
events. Let Mr Mangurn's friends stare;
they will find out after a while that the whole
gang of their political leaders have deceived
then, in this same way. When Mr Van Bu
ren was the bar to their ambition, he and
the Sub-Tre-Jsury were monsters; now Mr
Tyler is (lie bar; the Sub-Treasury is not so
had, but Mr Tyler's Exchequer is the "bold
est stretch for power ever witnessed in this
Government!" And so they go, just as in
terest or prejudice leads them, so they try to
lead ihe people. Pretty men for Legislators!
