The Returned Volunteers.

public dinner and other services in honor of the
returned volunteers was given in Franklin county on
the 18th inst. John NJ. Johnson, Esq, delivered an
address, which responded to by Col. McCarty.
e. B. Tingley and others also made short addresses.
The Democrat says" At the dinner table, where
things were done up right, good humOr seemed to be
the order of the day. The drinking of toasts. the
roaring of cannon and the music by the band, all
plainly told that it day Of rejoicing"
A similar celebration was had in Sullivan county
on the 10Th, an account of which we have in the
Vincennes Gazette 1t is estimated that not less
than 5000 persons were present-20O0 ladies. The
Hon. John w. Davis the orator of the day. A
patriotic ODE composed for the occasion, was sung
by its author, Judge John s. Davis. Responses were
made the Grafton and ode, by Capt Briggs aud 1t.
COL Hidden The Gazette concludes its account by
saying
The reception given by the people of Sullivan, was
one worthy of the brave soldiers who had gone forth
to do battle under the Stars and Stripes, and those
who split their es blood in the service of the
try aud were not permitted to receive the kindly well
cone of kindred and friends at home, held In
dear remembrance, and the big tear rolled down many
a cheek as illusions made to the gallant dead.
Drawer soldiers than the Sullivan county Guards

meeting to make arrangements for a Dinner for the
whole 81 regt Indiana volunteers, to be given by the
Haw-patch farmers"
In Shelby county festival in honor of the vOlun-
teers of that county will take place on Friday, July
I'D.
At various other places public festivals have been
or are to be given for the purpose. Everywhere
indeed, in this and in other States, something has
been done to demonstrate the feelings of the people
towards those brave men who enrolled themselves as
common soldiers, and encountered peril and death in
u hundred shapes for the defence and glory of the
country. Everywhere, we mean, except at Indian
apotS Here, COrWiHism appears to be the predomi-
nant sentiment among the "a leaders," though it may
not be confessed; and of those who think tile
volunteers nearly allied to "rObbers and murdererS,
cannot be expected TO regard them as worthy of any
demonstration of respect either public or private.

CL.-The Pennsylvania says-"A gentleman, long
resident of the city of Mexico, in which country
his opportunities for observation have been numerous,
assured us in recent conversation that we had with
him, that the influence most potent in the encourage
ment of the Mexcans during the present war; was the
of the federal newspapers and federal leaders
in this country. Their anti-war opinions were re-
peatedly and exulingly copied into the Mexican pa
pers. This fact did not astonish US Notifying it

of milk, puque, liquors, etc., poisoned those articles

A SOLDIER RETURNED-MR. ISAAC Pence returned
from the '.wars" and paid visit on last Saturday.
Mp. states that the speech of Tom Corwin was pub
lished in the Spanish language and widely circulated
in the province of Mexico. The Mexican nation are
sanguine in the belief that the 'Peace party make
up quite large majority of the American nation, and
therefore is that theylo that party for success,
with great confidence. They receive laid and COM
fort" from the anti-Amerlcan party here sufficient,
they suppose, to justify protraced with the u.
States. They expecting more efficient laid and
comfort from the peace party as soon as the meet
ing of the American Congress shall take p lace, be-
ieving, they do. that twothrds of the next Con-
gress vii be composed Of the peace party. In this
they will be sadly disappointed. If the anti-Amercan
course pursued by this peace party is not giving laid
and comfort" to the enemy, cannot conceive what
would be- If giving laid and comfort to the enemy
be not treason, we know not what would constitute
treason.-W Western Dominion Urbaaa, o., July Ia.

OF Mr.. MGaughey, Wing Representative in

Their man. All very good. But how much better did
they do by nominating r. w. Thompson, who did all
in his power to discourage the enlistment Of volun-
teers last year, and who, for his unparioc conduct
was then denounced as Tory by Col. T. H. Blake,
one Of the Trustees of the Wabash and Erie Canal
and an unwaverng Wing! Don't they at the same
time support Gale Smith in the 4h district who voted
just M'Gaughey did, not only not to pay the Vol
unteers ten dollars q month"; but against paying them
any thing at all! Corwinism is little more popular
in the eastern than in the western part of the State
and that explains the different attitude assumed by
the Wings. Here, in the CENTRE they play on both
strings,-praise Corwin, but hurrah for Taylor

Thieving and Treason.

The Cincinnati Enquirer of a late date has the fol-

patriotic wing officers of the regular army
JUsT LIKE THEM.-Tt appears from some intercept
ted dispatches, that the Assistant Quartermaser
HUNT, at New Orleans, has been writing letters to
Vera Cruz, complaining of the Administration not
furnishing them with requisite means The Mexican
papers are in state of glorifcation on the subject
Judging from the statements of this wing oice-holder
that our army would soon have to be withdrawn, for
want of funds.
We have heard of this Major Hunt before, from
those who have been in New Orleans The ST. Charles
of that city is familiar. should Judge, with his
dlatribes against the administration and the war.
Such men are not to be trusted; they will make as
much expense possible-ther relatives being the
greatest ganers-and then abuse the administration
for not furnishing means. We have too many such
men In the Qnartermaster's Bureau. They ought TO
be routed This Major Hunt, believe, has been
removed. We hope his place will be filled with the
right sort of malone who feels an interest in the
success of the war, and who will act with proper
vigilance, energy and economy.
The paper of day later contains the an
nouncement by the N. o. Times, wing paper, of
the transfer of 1t. Col. Hunt to Washington, and
testyiDg to his f lent and acceptable discharge of
duty. The Enquirer adds:
ave understand that Col Hunt has been called to
Washington TO give information touching his ac-
counts and answer for certain extravagant appropr
atoms of the public money. There are charges made
in circles if not official ears of most serious
character,-and trust they will be rigidy nvesti-
gated. The opinion hereabous is, that Ma or ToMP-
KINs should be called to pass the same ordeal"
