How badly we feel! We really fear
the game is Up with our candidate
just think of the grave charges under
which he is to live throughout The cam
paign! The People elected him 10 rep
resent them in Congress. and he spent
his winters n Washington! Why didn't
he go to Cleveland and bask in the good
graces Of Gov. Woods organ. And then
the spent his among his be.
uighied constituents Of Athens, Gallia
and Meigs." IL is true he did not like
others we know of-palent demo
forget his old friends and neigh.
bors after he had been in Washington
he did not fear To contaminate himself
by meeting and assoeiating with his old
neighbors-he did not, like some Of the
gloveJ democracy, spend his summers at
Saratoga, the sea shore, &c, overwhelm
ed ia scenes of dissipation aud folly. No,
poor man, he staid at home. UnpardoD
able sin--who can vote for him after that!
Who can prefer him to REUBEN WooD,
who was heraIded by this same DEMO.

%ponents. This work is altogether super
rogatory. Mr.. Vinlon's public acts, in Il
general way, need no justification now
for they acre 30 commended, by stIicl
propriely in their own time, that nobody
pretended to call them in question. We
take it for granted, that the electors oi
our State SO well know and estimate the
private character and public course OF the
Hon. Samuel E. Vinlnn, that no man
who possesses a grain of self.respect will
attack the one or The other. Those very
qualities constituted the grounds upon

INTEREsTING DIsCovERY.-On Monday
the 17th INST, a very interesting discove.
ny was made at Fort Recovery. in Darke
county. 1t appears that the recent heavy
rains had so washed a piece of ground
near or on tho side Of ST. Clair's defeat,
as to expose a human skull. Curiosity
being excited, further search was made
by removing the earth, when upwards ol
furty human skeletons were exhumed,
The remains were in a good state of pre-.
servation, and every skeleton exhibited
the effect of the lomakawk or deadly bull
let. These were evidently the remains
of part of those who fell in the memora.
