The most of the copper hunters are on
their return, many Of them looking as
though they had met with fishcrman's
luck; while others look wise. and pay
particular attention TO a small box, a
part Of their baggage insinuating there
by, that the specimens from my ioca-
ton contain sprinkling more silver

Many rich jokes and pranks have been
played off upon the over anxious spec
ulators, and it is not unreasonable TO
suppose, that some of them must be
severely bit. Among the hangers-on,
around the Office Of the Agent during
the summer, was a genius from some
part of Michigan, called Old P.
He had taken his stand as usual, at the
Office door, waiting the entrance Of a
party Of explorers who had just come
in, with bis permit in his hand. A
young scape-grace belonging to the
party, who was up to thing or two,
calls Old P out with the usual
sign, (resting the chin between the
thumb and fore-fnger, and elevating
three fingers along the side of the

SENATORIAL.

The "Drmsorracy" of Carroland Tusca'
was met at New Cumberland on Friday
iastand nominated JAMES FORBES, Sen., oi

of said counties in the next Legislature.
Of the nomination, ,or the State Of things
that made it necessary Tor aiJe l.ecotoCos
to make Mr.. Forbes the candidate instead
Of Col Brown or Col, Cable, it is not our
purpose to speak. If wrongs were COM
mtted on wounds inf tad among parity
friends, we have no desire to medtlie in
the premises. But Of Mr.. Forbes, the no.
minee, we have an undoubted right to
sppdk. When Wilson Shannon, in the
year 1888, commenced the syren song of
Bank Reform, Mr.. Forbes was found in
support Of that then unApdged HumJug.
lie WIS elected to the Legislature on the
'"Baak Reform" principle in ta3a by the
'"Denrocracy' Of CaEroll--in 1910 he sup
ported the Sub-Treasm,y plan Of Martin
Van Buren with all the enormities.of the
oflice-holders, on to the last. Hehas, from
the time Of his first entrance into public
fife, been the constant supporter of all the
HHnbug laws Of the Legislature Of Ohio
on Banking, which have inflicted wounds
upon the State tirat time and care alone !
can heal. He supported 'sPolk, DxIlas,
and TeraS" in 1874, and went against all
kind of Banks. He supported the party
opposed tothe Tariff of1842, and in favor
of beSub-Treasury and hard money. He
will, we have no doubt, If elected, follow

COUNTERFEITING ESTABLISHMENT
BROKEN UP.

The Lexington Observer gives an nc
Gconntof the breaking up ol the "most ex
tensive counterlriting establishments, per
haps in the United States" within 40 mile,
OF Lexington, and which has been in ex.
stence for long time. From this We
| learn, that JOhR BaHtOH, some years e.go,,t

farm, for some years before he left, and
was compelled to leave. The farm went
INTO the occupancy of Bantons three sons.
and they, Except one since dead, have
resided there eVersnce.
Two months since, q. w. Robinson, IA
milary known as Wash Robinson, a gam
bier, from Kentucky was arrested at Co.
umbus, Ga, for passing coun,erlrn mo-
ney. His notes purported to be Of the
Bank of Charleston, Southwestern Rail
Road bank, and were 20 well executed,
Unit he exchanged quantity Of them for
gold with a kcen-sghted broker They
were afterwards doubted, more critically
examined and finally pronounced coun-
terIeit, against the opinion Of most of the
business men in Columbus. Robinson was
arrested, and declared to be drover, and
10 have received the money fo stock sold.
Ills room was searched, and there was
found in the lining of q fellow dodgers
cloak, near 1909 dollars of the same kind
OF notes, and bunch of skcictou keVs! He
was committed for trial, and while in,pri-
son became sick, and supposing himself
IN danger OF death, madea confession. He
said he had obtained the counterfeit money
from the Bantons, (JOha and WilEam,) Of
LoncoIn county, KY, where was an ex-
tensIve manufactory, for notes as well as
CON, IN constant operation. He describ-
ed every thing particularly, and named
many of their agents for distributing the
money in different partsof the U. States.
Upon this information A. r. Aver, a
merchant Of Columbus, started for Ken

A WORD TO ABOLITfOKISTs,

We have forsome time thoughtof say
ing something to the Aboitionsts, eype
cIally that portion oI them who Withdrew
from the Whig party. To those who hay,
lett the,Democratic party we have only Il
say, that they have left the patty prope
and ranged themselves with one of its ad
Ijuncts. The question often presents it's
elf to as in'ttlis Iorn---Suppose the poIili-
cal Aboitcnists should get majority in
Congress anda President OF their own mar
ty, and thus have the entire control Of our
whole affairs, both. foreign and iSland,
what would be the consequence? Would
the negro be made lreel or, would he be
benered IN his condition? BY the condi
ton Of the Federal Consultation slavery is
tolerated in the States, and the Congress
or President have no right to interfere wild,
'The PecuIicr istHaioN" imany Statewhere
1t exists. But, say the AhoItionists, "we
will enact laws 10 prevent the migration
of this property Eon State TO State" we
ask how it is, that the Federal Government
has power to do a thing indirectly which
directly it cannot do! Tire Federal Gov
ernmentCaRnot iIherfere"with the ipsfiiu-
ton ina State, and why should it exercise
power over it by indirection, which is di-
recIly forbidden IN the instrument? we
think thats Congrpss'and President enter

iersoI his lpaFty could not possibly be off

-inateIy worid lcSo incalcuIabe evil to the
white man. Incur judgment the e'ascen-
ieney OF sach'a. party to The head of the
iovernment,'wo,r'd be equivalent to dis
ioutron Of the Union. The reasons for
ho belief are numerous. We think that
10 one who hasa patriotic heart in his
