Extraordinary Development.

The great scourge, the cholera, which
is desolating our country, has brought to
light most extraordinary instance ofpo.
litical corruption. Among the recent vic.
Tins to the cholera, at Huron, Ohio, was
Charles Robinson, Esq. lawyer from
the State Of Vermont. After his death,
while his physician and other respectable
citizens of Huron were taking an invento-
ry Of his effects, they discovered forty
sheets Of blank letter paper, Bearing tie
Frank of the Hon. Mr.. Plumnser, mem-
Der of Congress from the State of Mississ-
ippi! They also found in his trunk po-
Htical letters, addressed to Mr.. Robinson,
by various correspondents, all Franked
By the Hon. Mr.. Plummer 1t was as,
certaned that MIR. r. before his death had
put in and taken out OF the Posi-office
several letters, all bearing the same
frank.
This Providential exposure Of official
corruption will startle thegood people Of
this Republic Here we find political
emssary from Vermont, and travelling
through Ohio with quires OF letter paper,
5ranked by member of Congress from
Mississippi! How many more emissa,
ries, thus armed to defraud the Post office,
there are proving through the Union, is
left for conjecture.
This most profigate abuse ofthe frank
ing privilege, deserves, and we doubt not
will receive, the early attention of Con.
gress. Mr.. Plummer, who has thus pros.
tituted his privilege, is unworthy a seat
