CORWlNS MESSAGE.-The Advocate endorses
this State paper, and says il is excellent document
Ifso, we have not been able to find its srcsllcHe"
yet aud would be glad to have some point out The
excellent parts. Until this is done, we sha believe
the editor is burlosqueing Corwin. Perhaps however
il is texceen not for what il contains, but for what
it omits, in the eyes of the Advocate knowing as he
does, that if Corwin had told all he knew, it would
have 'doomd him 10 all eternity ..-
All who read the Message, expressed surprise that
Gov Corwin did not notice our public institutions; and
even The knowing wh papers, such as the CeVe-
land Herald, apoogiSed for him, saying that it was an
oversight-he forgot &c. The truth is, he omitted
purposey to notice them, and for the reason that they
had not prospered under his care. We take MS an in-
stance the Ohio penitentiary. In the Auditors Res
port we find that The expenses OF this institution during
the year. Sc, down al Thirteen thousand dollars while
its receipts are three thousand dollas-showing de"
fc of ten thousand dollars in one year. The last year
orShannon's administration this institution pruduced
clear profit to the STATE of near 90 900 dollars. The
last year of Corwin and Reform, instead Of yielding
profit tits dead expense of1O 900 dollars What a
contrast We have no reports yet from the other IN
stuons, but we fear although we hope not, that they
will show downward progress, Governor Corwin
however, should hpve told all about them, as was
his duty. To aitsmptIo screen hmseIfby saying moth

vILLANY SOMEWHERE.

On the 7th INST, both branches Of the Legislature
met to count out the votes for Governor In the NOR.
ming the Speaker ofihs Senate was informed that no
returns had been received by the Secretary of State
from the counties Of Butler, Richland, Highland, Mont
gomery, and Pauldirg. a messenger was despatched
to Rchand, who brought in the returns just IN time
as without her vote Shannon would have been defeated
and Corwin declared elected. The wings werein ex-
,acee, hoping that Corwin would come up head, and
not knowing that an express was sent out. But old
democratic Rchland came booming along, and thus
frustrated one of the basest plots ever concocted to
cheat Governor out of his Office.
Now there is villany at the bottom ofall this Cor>
wins Secretary of State, knew these counties had not
been returned, bur kept it secret TO all except the
Wing members. The county clerks also knew it, for
was their duty to send on the official returns. Did
they do their dutys Ifso the returns of those coun'
ties were pupoSey destroyed either on the wSy, or a
ter they co. to Columbus, for it impossible for them
all to be lost accidentally. If they did not send them
they deserve 10 be broke oftheir Offices, for bribery q
corruption, or wilful neglect ofduty.
Since the above was in type we received the
Statesman containing letter from the Clerk of Mont'
gomery county, stating that he had sent on his returns
Just after election. And can il be possible that Butler
and Richland. two staunch democratic counties, would
neglect their duty, knowing that such neglect would
defeat Shannonl No, it cannot be. We hope the au
thors f,hs plot and conspiracy to defeat our candidate
may be found out and eld up the scorn of all homes
men.

THANKSGIVING.

This is the day set apart by our late Governor for
general thanksgiving throughout the State. 1t is hoped
that all good and pious Christians. will suspend their
usual avocations, and spend the day in offering up
their prayers and thanks for the manifold blessings
which kind Providence in his plenitude and mercy
has showered down upon this wicked world during
the last year. Indeed to the really good it is unnec
esuary TO say anything, for know they can duly ap|
ureciate all the favors for which we have cause to be
thankful and hence will observe the day as it should
be observed.
But to the hypocrites and sinners, with which the
world is filled, we would fan make an appeal, were
it possible to find words sufficiently strong to penetrate
their obdurae and stony hearts, but that cannot be
done we give up for bad job, hoping however that
this class (the hypocrites will cease for one day at
least, their usual empoymens of lying, cheating, back
biting defaming and slandering one another, and join
IN with the salt of the earth in appearing thankful, and
manifes.ng gratitude for all the good things of this
life-a free and happy government-and the prospect
ofhappiness hereafter to the vrtuous, good and right
ous Will you do it for one dayi We shall see.
For ourselves, we expect to be engaged most Of the
day. on fine fat Turkey, weighing about 16 pounds,
from our farmer friend John Tucker Of Goshen towns
ship. It's seldom printers get such present, thai
we think it no moro than right 10 have general thanks
giving over it, on Thanksgiving day.

ported and generally believed there that the basis Of the
arrangement between Minister, (Gen Thompson.)
and tho Mexican Government for the settlement OF our
claims on The latter is the proer on the part OF Mex-
co 10 cede California to the United States. There are
good grounds or believing this to be true taking into
Consideration the facts that natural ridge, forming
road accessible by carriages from point near nde-
Independence, Missouri, to some point III or near
California, was some time since discovered, and that
our Government is said to have small command on
suryeyng expedition IN that region If true this intel.
ligence is of most important character. The propo-
siIion will il acceded 10 by Government, give US
firm Coothod at an important point west Of that almost

further intelligence with anxiety; in the mean lime We
