We cannot too often warn the friends of the Removal to beware of the falsehoods circulated by the Danville faction, as they will not stop at anything, however base and contemptible to defeat the Removal question. In proof of this, we have only to mention, the fact that they are now circulating the story that some of the principal men in Bloomsburg are opposed to Removal, and have refused to subscribe, as much towards the erection of new buildings as was thought they ought. As a complete refutation of this falsehood, we have only to say, that not a single person in Bloomsburg is opposed to removal, and that so far from any person having refused to subscribe towards the buildings; no subscription paper has ever been got up, nor will there be any, until after the election, when the public may be assured that there will be no lack of funds to erect buildings to the entire satisfaction of the County and to the full requirements of the bill. The assertions of the Danville faction to the contrary notwithstanding.
