Mr.. Henry Stanbery.

This gentleman is the Whig candidate for
Attorney General. He is an cold Hunker
Wing" Of "the pure water" He is a man
against whom We are not disposed to use any
harsh language. But he is candidate for
the sufrages of the people, and as such we
may look for his public acts
Now for little history. Mr.. Stanbery
was member of the Constitutional Conven-
ton. After the adjournment Of that body,
he and his especial friends were active in
opposing the adoption of the Constitution by
the people Among the objections urged
against it, they were particularly loud in
their denunciatons of the clause prohibiting
counties from voting subscriptions to rail
roads, the clause limiting the State debt, and
the taxation clause. Mr.. Stanbery, we learn,
was especially bitter in his denunciations Of
these provisions. Now, reader, you will,
perhaps, be surprised when we tell you that
Mr.. Stanbcry poted for each Of those propo-
Satons IN the ConveRtion! 1t is true that he
voted against the whole Constitution in the
end-but during the sitting of the Conven-
ton he voted under oath, for inserting every
one of the clauses for which he now objects,
in the Constitution.
Now, either one of the two things must
follow from this state of facts. Either Mr.
Stanbcry voted under oath, for what he kneat
to be ,0yong, or else he tried to deceive the
people, by denouncing the very measures fol
which he had voted, on the stump, Upon
which horn Of this dilemma will his friends
hang him?
Or. will they say, that he was opposed tc
any change of the Constitution, and that he
sought, by his votes, to insert provisions in
the new one, which he hoped would make il
unpopular with the people, and thus enable
him to defeat constitutional reform altogether
to thwart the will of the people by making
such an instrument as he hoped they would
not ratify?
We think the journals of the Convention
place Mr. Henry Stanbcry rather in ga fix
on this subject, and we should like to sec
some explanation Of the matter from some o
his friends.-Ljc6ing Heruld

Politeness Reciprocated.

The wings have been polite enough to call
Mr.. r. N, Wickliff "Oleaginous Robert," in
stead of Greasy Bob" As we do not like
to be behind our whig friends in politeness,
we return their civiIity by calling Mr.. John
B. Thompson, "Inebriate john" instead of
"Drunken Jack."-hentuchy Statesman.
Politeness always seeks the graceful and
euphoneous. The delegation from this coun-
ty to the Ohio State Convention, in voting
for Earl Bill for Secretary Of State, cast their
ballots for Earl William! How could they
have done otherwise, with our young friend
Corwine at their head!-En2uirer.
They voted for Earl William under the
impression that he was a British Nobleman.
This politeness reminds us of a young lady
who instead of saying thatshewas "dW-ious'
pronounced herself JKIljom-ous." The
whig party is sadly troubled with a similar
disease. Statesman,

Il will be seen by reference to the pro-
eeedings of the Judicial Convention. which
met ia this place on Friday last, that THoS.
L. JEWETT, Esq. of jefferson County. was
unanimously nominated as the Democratic
candidate for President Judge, for the dis
trict sOmpOsed Of jefferson, Harrison and
Tuscarawas Counties.
of Mr.. Jewett's quslifeatie,s, il is unne-
eessary for us to speak. lie is well known
70 the people of this district, as lawyer of
the first class. and as it is essential that the
person who holds that Office, should be
thoroughly acquainted with the law, We un-
hesitatingly prQleunce the nomination a
good one.
Whoever 9le opponent of Mr.. Jewett may
be, we feel confident that he cannot be bet
ter qualified to discharge the important
duties If that Office.
The very best feeling pervaded the con-
EentiQn, and the nomination as unanimous
a. any one could wish. This is an evidence
that the Democracy are alive to the impor-
tance of the fall election, and llgive good
account of themselves at the October elec-
ton.
Democrats of Harrison county!--each
and every man of you to work. Your foes
are rallying against you! And shall it be
said Of you, that you have permitted the
black flag of Federalism to float in triumph
over Harrison county? Nolno! Then pusE
on the Democratic column, and let the
watch-word pass from man to man
Harrison CoantymaSt and shall be redeemed.

Vinton and the Galphins.

Samuel f Vinton, the nominee Of the
Federal party for Governor, was in Con-
gress, and in his seat in the House, during
all the struggle which took place between
those who sought to bring to the bar Of pub
lie justice, the participators in the infamous
Galphin swindle upon the public Treasury
on the one hand, and those who sought to
cover up and shelter them from censure on
the other. Mr. Vintoe'A votes are to be
found uniformly among the latter. He
stood cheek jowl with Crawford, and vo-
ted to save him and the other members Of
the Galphin Cabinet from the scorching cen
sure they SO richly merited. He now stands
before the people Of Ohio as a candidate for
Governor, spotted all over with the leprosy
which such acts throw upon him, That is
not garb which will commend him
to the sufrages Of honest men. ~ ,Steabeaoiile

Does the editor Of the Union suppose that
Mr.. Vinton would have been nominated, Or
il nominated, been supported by the Wing
faction in our State, had he not been as deep

How to defeat and disorganize
the Democratic Party.

Just say that unless Mr.. So-and-so. is
nominated, wing willbe elected.
Say, that unless my friend is nominated,

vote against the nominee.
Abuse all the rival candidates of your
friends, and circulate about them all manner
Of evil reports.
Let a few democrats in each township do
this, and disorginazatiOn and defeat will be
certain TO oyertake any ticket which the De-
mocracy may nominate.

Black Ingratitnde.

1t is conceded by his friends here, that
Eckley---we mean Beef head Eckley--ofi III
ally sacrificed his benefactor, Judge Pearce.
It is also stated that the Judge contributed
funds to aid some Of the delegates to the
convention Of the Corruptionists, held at Co.
lumbus on July 3rd; and the general under
standing was that Pearce was to have a
place on the State ticket as one of the can
didates for Supreme Judge. But to the NOR
tifcation of himselfand fFiendsj5E, r. Eckley
accompanied tlle delegates and by a bargain
and sale operation sacrificed his benefactor
to get himself on the ticket for Lett-haaded
Governor. This is iDgradtude the deepest,
and blackest dye---for, il will not be doubted
in this community that, Judge Pearce took
Il. r. Eckley from the slough Of ignorance,
baseness and immortality at an age when it
was past teaching an old dog new tricks, 2
did what could be done to raise him from his
degradation. Yes, Pearce did what he could
for oBeef Aead'--.has even morally done
wrong himself to keep Eekley from sinking.
But now, when he could have done favor,
or, at least shown disposition to do so, he
llays his roges and most certainly sacrifices
the man who has thus far held him from the
depths ofdegradation and crinc-or at least,
from suffering the penalty thereof. But what
else can be expected from the ingrate2 What
could irrational man expect from one whose

TT SHOULD NoTBEFoRGoTTEN

By the People of OHIO, that SAMUEL
F. VINToN, the present Wing candidate for
Governor, wasamember Of Congress, during
the whole time of the contest between our
country and Mexico.
IT SHOULD NOT Be FORGOTTEN!!
That at time of imminent peril to our
brave countrymen-when they were in the
midst of band of enemies vastly outnum-
bering themselves, and when there was no
money at the disposal of the Secretary of
War, which he could devote to the pay and
sustenapce of the Army; at such moment
as this, SAMUEL +. VINTON, the present
whig candidate for Governor, voted against
granting supplies to his countrymen-thus
leaving them at the mercy of an enemy as
blood-thirsty and relentless as savages, and
even more cruel than the Indians who fought
with them in their guerilla warfare.

ANOTHER aGALPHINao
Secretary COrwin and the Gardner
Claim.

Some time since we made brief reference
to the fraudulent Gardner claim of over hall
a million, that had been obtained from the
United States Government; and TO the fact
that Thomas Corwin, Secretary of the Treas
ury, had received some eighty thousand dol
lars as his part of the plumber. The history
of this most extraordinary case has never
been published, consequently we shall be
cropping somewhat in the dark until the next
meeting of Congress. Then we have no
doubt the whole matter will be probed to the
bottom. Enough, however, has been eiici-
ted to enable us to give the following history
of the case -
DR.. Gardnerhad either leased or purchas-
ed quicksilver mine in Mexico, and after
workingit it for short time he was stopped by
the Mexican authorities. For this stoppage
he laid claim for damages to the amount
of one million of dollars, and this was the
claim that was taken before the commission
ers on Mexican claims at Washington. 1t
was never contended that DR.. Gardner had
expended a million of dollars on the mine
for he never had it to spend, and we doubt
whether it was ever proven that that he alb
solutely lost any money that he put into the
concern, butt was alleged that if he had had
the privilege of working the mine he could
have made million out of it! This was the
character of the claim in the beginning, and
to prove that this was the case we have only
to state the fact that DIR. Gardner entered into
an arrangement with THOMAS CORWIN,
then Senator, now Secretary of the Treasu-
rv, to pay him ONE HUNDRED THOU
SAND DOLLARS of this claim, in case o.
its success. tits also said that son-in-laW
of one of the commissioners that passed the
claim, receive FORTY FIVE THOUSAND
DOLLARS. There are also number o.
other parties in Washington who received
LARGE amounts for their aid in this matter.
Is there any better evidence needed Of the
fraudulent character of this claim than the
fact that the owner of it divided up nearly
half of it with officers of the Government and
their friends to get it through.
But whether fraudulent or not is it moi
sickening to the heart Oft the true patriotic sec
the Government in the hands of men who
use their official positions to make immense
fortunes, in single year, out of claims upon
a Government, whose bestinterest they have
sworn to protect and defend. How can an
honest administration retain in office for a
single day, man atthe head ofthefinanc la
affairs of the country, who has pocketed one
hundred thousand dollars out Of a claim a,
gainst the Government, and thattoo fraud
ulent one.

Judicial District Convention.

Agreeble to notice given a very respecta-
emeeting assembled atthe National House
in Cadiz, on the lst Of August, for the pur-
pose of nominating candidate for the Office
of President Judge, to be supported by the
Democracy of Jefferson, Tuscarawas and
Harrison counties.
Owing to the fact that our farmers gene
rally were very busy harvesting, and the
notice having been short, there was not as
full an attendance as could have been wish
ed. However, the very best feeling perva-
ded the convention, and all seemed anxious
10 yield to the will of the majority, and to
give hearty support to the nominee, who
ever he might be.
The convention was organized by calling
JAMES NJ. GLADDEN., Esq, of Jefferson
County, to the chair, and appointing WIN. A
GILES, of Harrison county, Secretary.
After full and free interchange ofopinions
with reference to the approaching election,
it was resolved that the convention proceed
to Observation-Disclosures the name O.
THOMAS /. JEWETT, Esq, of Jefferson
county, was presented to the convention, and
no other one being nominated, it was unani
mously resolved that Mr., Jewett, be decla
red the nominee for the office of Judge
which resolution was adoptedby acelamation
! The convention then after some unimpor
tant business, adjourned.

Whig Opinions Of Ecklev.

Something that we said, acouple OF weeks
ago, concerning Lieutenant Governor Eek
ley's grade Of brains and lack of decency,
has given offence to the Western Palladium
We are sorry to have wounded the tender
sensabilities Of our neighbor but the fault is
not ours. If some of the ablest and most
consistent wings in New Lisbon, are capable
of forming anunbiassed Judgment, Eckley's
character as portrayed in our remarks, is
given correctly. Whatwe said, is more than
justified by the opinion entertained of him by
men Of his own party in various parts Of the
State, In October last, he was suggested
for the Speakership of the Senate. In allu-
sion to this suggestion, the Richmond Ohio J
Clipper, edited by Corwin whig, who at
one time resided in Carrollton, made the fol-
lowing pungent commentary;--New Lisbon
Patriot
The Cadiz Republican nominates Mr., Eek
lIey, ofCarroll for Speaker the Senate and
the 1aS. Adpocate, seconds the nomination,
We do not know what sort of qualifications
those papers desire a Speaker to possess, but
we do know thatif unmaigated naeannesS, dis
Honesty npolitics, loosenesS IN morals atncon-
holable selfShness, and impudence wahom a.
bility, sare requisites for that office, the indi-
vidual they mention is eminently qualified
for the station Ephraim r. Eckley, Speak
er of the Senate! Some documents in our
possession would look well with that sigma
ture attached to them! If any body doubts
Mr.. Eckley's qualifications for Speaker, ac-
cording to the Standard we have given, we
recommend to his notice an article over the
signature Of "a Wayfaring Man" which
appeared in the "Carroll Free Press" during
the autumn ofl847 That article will CON

The New York Courier q Enquirer is out
against the nomination of Gen. Scott The
Pennsylvania Wing State Convention refu-
sed to endorse the Fugitive Slave Law, as a
whig measure, and at the same time nomi-
mated Scott. The Enquirer claims said Law
to be cardinal principle of the Wing party
and thus scouts the nomination of Scott:
''And in like manner, much as we admire
the Heroism of General Scott, and greatly
as we estimate his services to the country in
the war with Mexico, we should hesitate to
sustain him for the Presidency while presen-
ted as the candidate of Convention which
would not pass such resolution as that we
have copied above"

Bankers and Ranks.

Collier, tried at Elkton, Nd, for the en-
funds Of the Havre de Grace
Bank, was acquitted on the 18th. He was
tried also for fraudnlently obtaining check
for 500 dollars, and acquitted. Where
then, did the 100000 60 TO? All, sure
enough, where did that nice sum go TO? for
100000 where shown, by the books of the
Bank, to be on hand when Mr. Collier was
in charge. Why, the counsel for defendant
explained it most easily-most readily-mOst
Clearly,-there was no mystery about it at
all,-the statementswere fictitious the bank
was mere shadow, and all its operations
were upon a ficticious basis, the funds being
returned to the New York Stockholders the
same month they were paid in, from the first
year of the existence of the bank, and in fact
the funds were in New York all the time, so
that there was nothingleft for Collier to steal.
Some people, a little green, by the way,
are simple enough to imagine that It requires
cash, money, the "hard," to start bank,
and keep up bank? How ridiculous, to
be so ignorant in the modern sciences A
paper mill, wood cut maker, a pound OF
llampblack, big iron chest, wise looking,
elderly man in the back parlor, and quick,
smart, keen, nervous little fellow in the front
room, gravely counting big piles of old news
