Postmaster General.

The "Little Western copies a favorable notice of
Samuel Medary, in connection with the Office of I. M.
General, and appends the following remarks
% Personally to him, as a certain defunct great
man said upon another subject, WE have no objections
but we would like to know how the Democracy of
Ohio can dispense with his services, in his present
situation We know editors In abundance can be
found, Of AZ ~calibres, from q Paixhan to a pistol, and
from a pistol to a pop-gun but 1t would be difficult
to FIJI Samuel Medary's shoes in ~Ohio.-Beside, we
would like to have the claims of Indiana considered
in this matter. We would like to see Governor Whit
comb at the head of the Post office Department. Where
will you find a man better qualified for that post than
he! A more thorough, correct and vigilant public
officer cannot be found. Mr.. Polk will decide, and
we will abide his choice:''
We know nothing of Gov. Whitcomb's feelings
upon this subject, but we are quite sure that no man
could administer the laborious office of the T. M. Gen.
eral more successfully than himself. His success in
the General Land Office is sufficient evidence of his
business talents and capacity.
We may, by the way, as well observe here; that
we have noticed various surmises or imPutations In
the Wing papers, that recent events here have been
directed with a view to the promotion of Gov. Whit
comb to some place In the Cabinet Of President
Polk. We believe these to be all Roorbackisms and
further, that if the Governor should be offered a place
in the Cabinet, the duties of any of which he Is fully
competent to discharge with credit to himself and
honor to the country, it will come as a free will Offer
ing from the President, and without the solicitation
CT Gov. Whitcomb.
The vigor Of a lie is often increased by contradic-
ton, which is the reason we have not noticed the
Roorbackisms alluded to before this; and but for 9TH
er matters indirectly Involved we might have contin-
ued silent.

IL is very Unreasonable

For the Wings to be finding fault with Mr.. Polk for
being elected without the vote of Tennessee. The
blame certainly does not rest with him or the Demo-
Gratis. 1t is the wings who did it. The Charleston
Mercury thus cOnclusively puts this point:
"If any body is TO blame in this matter, il is surely the
wings, who persisted in outvoting hIm, IN the face OF the
plain and indeed undenable truth, that If he did not get
a majority, he could not receive the vote of the State"
This, however, may be said for the gallant Demo-
Gratis of Mr.. Folks own State, that they have made a
larger proportionate gain than has heen effected in any
other State, so that if they did not command entire
success, they at least deserved it.-N. Y. Morning
NeUS.
0F Without wishing to detract in the slightest de-
gree from the just credit due TO the noble democracy
of Tennessee, duty to the democracy of our own State
requires us to say that the remark of the NelrS is not
correct, without the exception of Indiana. Tennes-
see gained about Il, 1000 over the Democratic vote OF
1910, while Indiana, with one electoral vote less than
Tennessee, not only overcamc the whig majority Of
1868, but gave in addition democratic majority Of
more than 2300-a gain of more than 10000 over
the vote of 1910. No other State did comparatively
as well, and if a s'banner'' depended, Indiana only
could claim it.

LATER from Mexico,

THE PRoGREss OF THE REVOLUTION THEREBY
the way of Havana, we have later dates from Vera
Cruz, than by the way Of New Orleans, through a
steamer arriving at Havana from Vera Cruz.
We have previously stated that the Mexican Con-
gress had ordered the manifestoes of the Revolutions
ry General, Paroles, to be printed, thus lending their
seeming sanction to his movements, and that Santa
Anna had taken command of the 10000 men in the
District of Jalapa to proceed against him and his
commands.
Accordingly, as we already know, Santa Anna issued
his proclamation, put himself at the head of 1000
infantry, 1900 cavalry and 20 field pieces, and on the
23d he left Mexico and marched towards Quretaro,
with Gen. Reyes, to which point the troops followed
him. About this time the Mexican Congress passed
a resolution censuring the Minister at War for having
issued orders to Santa Anna to take command of the
Army of the Republic, when the Constitution prohib-
tied the Supreme Executive from acting in that capa-
city. The reply of the Secretary not having been
deemed satisfactory, they decided that General Santa
Anna had been assigned to command the troops of a
district and was not placed at the head of the army.
It was therefore deemed necessary that the Minister
should forthwith suspend the command of Santa Anna.
Meanwhile Gen. Bassadre has been appointed to take
his place.

Nebraska.

Mr.. Wilkins in his report recommended the organ
izatlon of q new Territorial Government TO be called
Nebraska. MIR. Douglass of Illinois gave notice in
the House Of Representatives on the 18th inst. that
he should at an early day ask leave TO introduce a bill
for carrying out the suggestion of the Secretary. The
admission of a new State Of the Union or the forma-
ton of a new Territorial Government, is always a
matter of interest to the people at large, and we here
append an extract from the report of the Secretary Of
War, descriptive of the region which may soon form
one of the United States of America:
''The immediate valleys of the head streams of the
Arkansas, the Platte, and the Yellow Stone rivers
have much rich and valuable land. The Platte OF
Nebraska, being the central stream leading into, OF
from, the Great South Pass, would properly furnish a
name to the territory, which | propose suggesting tc
be erected into a territorial government in connection
with, and preliminary to, the extension in that direc.
ton Of our military posts. / would confine the Ne.
braska, Territory to our undisputed possessions on thi:
side OF the Rocky Mountains. Its boundary lire wohld
commence at the mouth of the Kanzas, and run up
the Missouri river to the mouth of the Running water
River, and would pursue that stream TO the head Of
its northern branch, and thence due west to the Wind
River chain. From this point, turning southwark,
the line would continue along the Wind River range.
and the main chain of the Rocky Mountains, to the
head of the Arkansas, and following that stream tC
the mouth If the Pawnee Fork, would pass by the
heads of the Neesba and Usage rivers, again to The
mouth of the Kanzas.
"Thc eastern section of the region embraced BY
these boundaries from the Missouri River westward
for two hundred and fifty miles, is of great agricultu.
raj beauty and facilities, fhickly timbered on the nu,
merous tributaries Of the Kanzas, Usage, and Neosha
rivers, and in fertility equal to the best land in Mis-
souri,. From the limit of this fertile portion westward
for the space of 400 miles, the country is entirel,
covered with rich grasses, which improve IN quantit,
and quality up TO the snow of the mountains.
''The limits of this territory include the extreme hea,
of navigation of the Arkansas, all the good lines o
communication with California, the road from ou
frontier to the Mexican boundary and Santa Fe, an,
also an excellent and more direct pass to Oregon, dis
covered by recent exploration; about one Hundred an,
fifty miles southwark Of the Great South Pass"

TO TIE

81 feel it my duty to myself and society to publish
the destroyer of my happiness and home, this vile and
infamous seducer 10 the world. About the Doth of
September one George M. Maxwell clandestinely elo-
ped with my wife, Elisabeth Klepser, from Mont
gomery county Ohio. She had gone there on a visit
with her relatives, and Maxwell on p~retence of busi-
ness in Cincinnati, followed her Immediately to said
county, from which they left for the South. Since that
time 10 intelligence has reached me concerning them,
until the evening of the Sd inst, when he returned
home, amid the wreck he had made, and the commu-
nifty whose sense of feeling he had r~ecklessly outraged
but the Indignation aroused by this unparalleled act
of marked contempt of public sentiment, was gathered
around him, and thinking 50 discretion the better part of
valor," he decamped-where | know not. He has left
a wife, and four children in this place. He is a man
about t~hirty-fve years of age, ford complexion, halle
eyes, inclining shoulders, light hair, about six feet
high, and Muscular. He is a blacksmith by trade,
was a Colonel in the Militia, a Justice of the Peace,
a Master Mason In the Masonic Fraternity, and a
Class Leader in the Methodist Church. He has taken
his Commission as Colonel and Justice and certificate
of good standing in the lodge with him. He is easy
in his address, pleasant in his conversation and affable
in manners. The said George M Maxwell is no doubt
one of the vilest scoundrels and hypocrites that ever
breathed the pure air of Heaven. No doubt exists
that he Joined the Methodist church for the hellish pur-
pose of seducing my wife, who was a member of said
church, and the mother of three interesting children.
Facts have been disclosed that warrant the belief, that
a criminal intercourse subsisted between them before
her departure, and that she left for the real purpose
Of facilitating the accomplishment of their unlaw-
full designs. He has left an interesting and highly
respectable family, in correction with myself and
children, to lament the misery, woe and despair OF
which he has been the author. The seducer of my
wife, to whose happiness my every effort was directed,
the destroyer of my peace and tranquility in life, and
violator of the most sacred principles of humanity,
and social e~ndearment, he will roam the earth, logged
by the lashings of a guilty conscience, until he shall
sink beneath the accumulated miseries which he has
brought upon himself by yielding to the promptings Of
guilty desire. JACOB KLEPSER.

From the JefersOHidn.
Unified STATES Senator.

We are inclifed to think this election is to be post
postponed till next winter. 1t is right that it should
be. A Senator now elected would, in all probability
misrepresent the people. There is no vacancy, and
next winter will be time enough to elect. The people
will thus have another opportunity to express them
selves on the subject. Of this no party can COM
plain.
1t is true, that, in wing counties, 1t is the Interest
of the democrats that the election should take place
terest, against one of right. No censure can attach
either to electing or not electing this winter; nor
could the people blame the democrats in either event.

The late Struggle i'm Indiana.

Since the smoke of tie battle has cleared of, we
find among the subjects noted by Us, and intended to
be commented on In due season, an editorial article in
the +" Whig Rifle" of the 4th Of July last, a campaign
paper published in Indianapolis, Indiana, which
furnishes so apt an illustration of the hypocrisy and
inconsistency of federalism, that we cannot suffer it
to pass.
The article alluded to, is headed "The Locofoco
Governor of Indiana, y in which the editor among other
remarks, couched in the same temper and spirit, says:
al is enough for us to say-and the alrocIty of such
conduct will at once appear-that James WhiIcOmb, the
Governor Of Indiana, is openly on the stump in this cOun
~, Marion county, making political harangnes. We be-
Iiere the case 10 be soiLkOHt a parallel. Let the simple fact
be noted and conveyed on the wings Of the press"
Again:
+" MI. Whitcomb has now, by an act Of his own, gra-
tuiiously brought himself into The arena" :
I" lie has voluntarily thrown off the mantle ofChief Mag
istrate of Indiana, and stands side by side with George
Chapman-in cock PIT skirmish-se degraded"
The cool impudence and assurance of this editor in
charging the course of Gov. Whitcomb in addressing
lrithout a parallel" will not a little surprise this State
(Ohio,) at least such of them as listened to the +" po-
litical harangues' of Gov. Corwin for the purpose of
influencing our State elections when he was not a cam
didate himself, and was the acting Governor. Itmay
not be amiss, to recall the mind of the reader to some
of the notorious efforts of Gov. Corwin, in this respect
1t was in lS41, that Mr.. Corwin pledged has head TO
Captain Tyler, on certain conditions We like .
bring up these old "reminiscences, as we are told, " his
tory teacheth by example" If no more serious charge
can be brought against the excellent Governor of Indi-
ana, than the above, he is fortunately located among
enemies of far less inventive genius than those of the
same stamp In other States. We hope they will try
again.-Ohio Statesman, Dec. 80.

ocArIoS OF GOVERNMENT FUNDS PER OFFICIAL STATEMENTS.
nfs az Rnsfan. ~. York. HnShnr- all ofhn InfaL.

Now to individuals, Government mo-
ney, to the amount of %, DOC, 900, was sent from New
York to Washington to remain on deposit on pledge
of Government stock. The motive is to " diffuse the
benefits I" of the de~posites. The ~deposites thus nomi-
nally at Washington, are probably used in Wall
street. Now, lending the money on a stock to be
paid January, is undoubtedly as safe an operation, as
it is to lend on any of the Governments own stock.
This is, however, a system of temporary shifts and
expedients. 1t is using the public money avowedly as
a means of charging Government patronage, and Is
in the long run unsafe, injudicious and incompatible
with the dignity of the Government.
To collect 100000 600 cash duties from the mer-
chants of New York, and then to go hawking it over
the country, and lending it to every rickcty bank or
respectable broker, under the guise of dispensing
f~ayors,'' evinces, to say the least, a most needless dis
regard to the great commercial interests, whose cash
capital is directly diminished by the sums thus loaned
to stock lobbers. 1t is also remarkable that the corpo-
rate repositories at Washington have no legal exist
ence, but to do business on Government money in de-
fance of the law of Congress winding them up. Under
these circumstances, all that has saved the Govern
ment from heavy losses, has been the quiet and healthy
state of the general trade of the country. The moro
speedily a return is made to the sound system of col
lecting no more taxes than are requisite for the sup
port of the Government and of collecting, keeping and
disbursing the funds only through the agents of the
Government, the better 1T will be for all interests.

Of State.

On Thursday last, JOHN H.. THOMPSON, who was 1t
Governor under Ray, and recently President Judge Of
the I'd circuit, was elected Secretary of State, for four
years, on the 9th b~alloting, by rs votes. The Journal
cLuckles a little over the u~nanimity, which enabled the
Wings thus to elect the caucus nominee. But if ouI
information be correct, that the result was only come
at-able By an arrangement with a certain other aspirant
who is to be rewarded with a ~clerkship in the Secre
tary's ohice,-it is not, taking that individually notori
Gus character into view, soyery creditable to the Wing
party, after all.
Stephen g.. Dodge of Terre Haute, was the demo-
cratic candidate, and received the full vote of oul
PARTY on the six first ballots. We wish they had voted
for him to the last:

vote IN accordance with the m~ajorities in the districts
they represent, the democracy would have a majority

LOANS NEW YORK BANKS.


These four banks increased their loans as much as
all the others. In November the curtailment took
place, as the Secretary alleges, "to prevent undue
expansion" (qfter that expansion had taken place,
however, as appears by the table, and to " dccommO-
date diSburSing officers" a most singular reason,
when we consider that the disbursing officer could
have sold a draft on New York at a premium at any
moment By the charter of the late National Bank,
the public money was to be deposited with 1t, unless
the Secretary should otherwise direct, in which case
he was to state his reasons to Congress. They We're
removed, and good reasons given. The Senate, how
ever, declared that removal was an unwarrantable as
sumption of power. The Secretary now not only
changes the place of deposite, but actually transports
money from one place to another, causing a panic in
the money market and a fall in stocks, for the {" con-
venience of individuals :" and to dispense favors,"
and no notice is taken of it. Times have indeed
changed! Hence the change took place generally, as
follows:
