DEAR SIR
Your valuable paper comes here TO some Of our
citizens, and it 10 more sought after than all the
newspapers that make their appearance in this re.
gion OF coustry, for the very best of reasons that
IS, that 1t has all the news, both great and small
Of every kind. When we go to the pos, office the
FIRST enquiry is, have you got the "New York He.
rald?'
Our town elections took place on last Monday.
and to the great astcnishmcnt of the two old mar.
ties, the union ticket had q large ma ioritv
throughout. The union ticket was made up bv
wings and anti. Landowners, so called-it is truly a
strange state OF affairs. Every body was epouir.
ing what new party was this? and what did it
meant Ne one seemed 10 understand the run. but
every body seemed well pleased, except part of
the FoHrth Ward, such as Mr.. Me, Mr.. Nc. and
Mr.. o and their followers They took it in high
dudgeon. The business OF the tow. has rested on
their shoulders, for the last ten years, and to be
turned oat Of Office was a Thing that they did not
expect. Whether they will put up with such
treatment or not, is yeti to be determined. 1t may
be pOSslOle That tney Will stop the wheels oil go
vernment, until reinstated in office.
Whether this union party is a Tyler party or not
is yet to be determined, for, be it known unto you,
that this is a home league region, and goes for a
strong tariff, and for the distribution of the sales Of
the public lands amoag the States. Mr.. Tyler's
message IN Congress, recommending the repeal OF
the distribution act does not take well here. This
is a manufacturing place, and a large majority of
reign impsrtations as will pay the expenses Of 90.
vernment. Money matters here is hard up, and If
possible, is getting harder and tighter every day.
We, however, have had but one failure as yet, and
said to have taken place by the dishonesty of one
Of the partners, Mr. Of Louisville. 1t was
said that Mr.. would be carried with them,
bat he seems to think that he can stand the racket.
in this section Of The country. The only hope is
good crops, and such a tariff as will bring the ba.
lance of trade in our favor then, and not till then,
will we begin TO look up.
the health of our town never was better, and the
people of S teubenville is industrious, land a manulac-
turing peop.e. and Steubenville has more local ad.
vantages for manufacturing than any other town
in the western country, and all this combined to-
gether with a go-a-head kind Of people will not be
beat out so easy. 1t is yet to be decided whether
Mr.. s. will obtain the "tirly tree tousand or not"

Boz passed by this place the other evening, and
did not so much as give us pump handle shake of
the hand. lfhe thinks that we know nothing about
Pickwick, he is very much mistaken, for every
man, woman and boy in these parts understands the
run of Pickwick. Mr.. Tyler has one or two friends
here-no mistake.
Why it is that you do not notice old Steuben in
your paper is not for me to say-it may be that no
one writes you. This should not be; a place that
is so famed for beauty, both at home and abroad,
should, to saysths least, be entitled to a short space
in the columns Of the New York Herald, that best
Of all newspapers. BUCKEYE.
