recommended Ohio as a very suitable place for
the worn out slaves Of Virginia. has become in
censed because Gov. Ford refuses to deliver up
free black man charged with crime against the
laws of that State which is not clearly shown in
the requsiton. He communicates the refusal
to the Legislature aud recommends measures 10
be adopted that will transfer entirely the trade Of
Virginia from those States which he says trample
under foot the laws of the United Suites. The
message concludes:-
"a concerted and united action on the part Of
the South in this matter, will either redress our
grievances at once, transfer the direct Europe
an trade 10 the Southern ports, or bui d up man
uiactures of all sorts in our country. which would

To the WINGS of Fairfield.

The coming year will be the most i'm
portant TO the citizens of Ohio, since the
organization of the State Government.
Not to say anything Of the Slavery ques'
tion which is now agitating the minds of
the people of the whole Union, the fact
that new Constitution is to be framed
for Ohio is alone sufficient to interest ev.
cry man in the State. Under these cir
cumstances. there should not be fami.
lily in the State without newspaper, and
that one printed in the State. The reas-
ons for this assertion will be obvious to
every citizen. 1t is sufficient for us to
say, that occupying the position we do
inregard to Convention, the Gazette will
present fair aud impartial view Of the
various provisions that may be proposed
for the new Conslitution--its columns
will be open for candid, considerate and
courteous discussion, and in it will be
presented correct and reliable history
of events as they may occur.
We hope our friends throughout the
country, will appreciate the necessity of
a thorough dissemin alton of facts and ar
guments upon so important question,
and lend us their assistance in increasing
the circulation of the Gazette. 1t sho'ld
be in the hands of at least every Wing
in the county. While its columns will
be ardently devoted to every measure OF
practical Reform, we will be as strenu-
ousiy opposed to every species of Rad
icalism in whatever shape it may appear
or by whomsoever proposed.
In order that we may do our share to-
wards increasing its circulation, we of.
fer it for the coming year upon the fol-
lowing very liberal terms:-
One copy, for one year. ..... $l:75
Five copies, ITO one address) 500
Ten do. " $500
Fifteen do J 5000
twenty do :" J $500
~In all The above cases. the cash
must invariably accompany the orderfor

6-We hope the Postmaslers through.
out the county will interest themselves
in getting up Clubs. Each one, who
procures club Of ten or upwards, will
be entitled TO copy of the paper, in ad.
diiion to the advantages,that will other
wise accrue to him.
~ The above terms for Clubs will
prove advantageous to persons in the
country, who have not the advantages of
mail facilisies. To these the Gazette
will be the cheapest paper they can get.
