PAULUS POWELL.
Com rrenf.

Com emit
We might well except TO a portion OF
Mr.. Powell's letter, as being couched in
language, if not offensive, at least la
bic to be construed into terms Of per-
sonal disrespect to us but the bearer of
his open communication, who is gentle
man ofcharacter and intelligence and an
intimate personal and political friend of
Mr.. p, disclaims for him all such inten-
ton. He adds further that, Mp. would
himself do it, and promptly change the
phraseology, ifthat gentleman had not left
town before we had an opportunity Of call
ing his attention to the subject. With this
understanding, we have consented to pub
lish his "emanationi" which seems, how
ever, to demand running commentary,
with which we propose to accompany its
insertion.
1t seems that our brief remarks in Thurs
days paper, which were intended, as
every body who read them, perhaps, ex-
cept Mr.. Powell, regarded them, as
mere .jeu d'esprit, have operated as a most
admirable cholagogue for that choleric
politician. We hope Mr.. Powell is better
now, and that one or two more "cmana-
tons" from him. for which we have the
proper drastics, will effect radical cure
Of bis political constipation. He may rest
asst red we shall not desert him in the aw-
full trial to which he is soon to be subec-
ted before dissatisfied constituency. We
shall cleave unto him to the last, because
we are resolved to ''act justly by him." if
we can; but docs he not mistake his in
terests when he asks for justice That is
an awful thing sometimes, land like death to
sinners, it is the last visitant political Of
tenders like him ought to welcome. JUS
tice to Mr. Powell would be death to his
political aspirations and we would advise
him to ask little less than justice of his
late constituencies if he is really anxious a.
bout which we will not stop to inquire, to
be returned to that seat in Congress from
which he lately "emanated."
MIR. Powell, it is seen, denies that he has
either adopted the address of the Editor Of
the Sentinel as his platform or pinned his
faith to the Editors sleeve Well, strict
ly speaking, this is probably so, but "de
mtnimis non curat lea" He distinctly
admits, however, that he has "circulated
and shall continue to circulate" the address
'as Wig testimony in favour ofhis course
on the Compromise." Having introduced
witness in his own behalf, Mr.. Powell
cannot, Of course, object to our cross-ex-
amlningsuc witness, and we take the liber-
ty therefore ofPrescnling the follow ing arti

Bankers in the Field.

Federalism, true to its instinct, determined
Q bring the Bank influence of our State to
bear upon the approaching election. has Sc
cured it by plAeing upon their ticket full
representation Of that power. At the head
stands Samuel F. Vinton, Who was the God
fIther and Protector Of that old swindIng
shop. the Galliopolis Bank. Our people,
says the Telegraph. have not forgotten the
history Of this Bank, nor will they fail to re-
member on the second Tuesday of next oc-
tober. that the present Wing candidate for
Governor was the principal instrument of its
creation, and is therefore responsible in part
for the ills it brought upon them.
Next, as the Banks are likely to be inter-
ested in at least one-fourth the litigation Of
the State, it was thought best to place tool
of corporations upon the Supreme Bench.
and therefore one Peter Odlin was selected
for that purpose. Mr.. 0dlin is President of
one of the branches of the State Bank Of
Ohio. The banking screws will be put into
operation, and every voter in our State that
can be reached by them, and who dares to
oppose this Federal Bank ticket, will be
made to feel their depressing influences.

The Wing Ticket-aAll sOrts.D

We have heard reformed drunkards, in
telling their experience, say tina, in city dog
geries, they have under the bar, tub in
which the slop from the different glasses Of
all kinds Of liquor are emPded, and this is
sold to hard cases at two cents drink. Ii
is called "all sorts" When we saw the
Wing Ticket, says the Newark Herald, we
were reminded of tub of call Sorts" Vim

opposers of the New Constitution-Lyman

that tub of "ail sorts" for you reader?-

Change in the Whig Ticket--Cau-
Gus Dictation.

Sure enough, says the Statesman, Just as
we have been expecting for more than a
week, one of the Wing candidates for the
Board of Public Works, withdraws. Col
John Madeira, of Chllicothe, who was NOM
mated by the Wing Convention of July,
withdraws from the Wing ticket, and the
Wing State Central Committee supplies his
place with Benjamin F. Conway, of Ports
mouth.
But what right had the Wing State Cen
tral Committee to supply COL Madeira S
place with Mr.. Conway? COL Madeira was
chosen by full Wing Convention-and was
a good choice-now where is the commission
Of the Wing Central Committee for nomna-
ting a candidate to fill a vacancy, which a
State Convention shall perform? How ma
ny private purposes and partialities may
members cf this Wing clique have in select
ing Mr.. Conway, which they could not graf
lify by leaving it to a duly organized body
.of delegates Is that the way the Wing
Central Committee exemplifes its doctrines
upon caucus dictation.
If Wing Central Committee can select a
candidate for the Board of Public Works,
they can for Governor, Senator or President
and we should like to know for what end
the Wings pretend to maintain general or
ganization, while they have at Columbus, a
Clique Of dictators, ever ready to make and
unmake party candidates, just whatsoever
they please? We should be glad to know
whether, after all, the Wing Columbus clique
is not de .tacto the Wing party of Ohio

tions

Democratic National Convention.

The Cleyeland Plain Dealer publishes a
New York letter, which says:
A committee of Democrats have been in
this city for some weeks, making arrange
ments for issuing the call for the Democratic
National Convention. Baltimore has been
fixed upon for the great National gathering

the Northwest wished more central point

the vacancy on the Committee from Iowa,
occasioned by the death of Ex-Governor
Clark, has now heard from nearly every
member of the National Committee chosen
by the delegation Of the several States in the
last Baltimore Convention; and it can be
certainly relied upon that the Convention is
to be held at Baltimore

Personal Matters once more.

OF all contemplate and mean things or
the face of Gods green earth, to be habit
ual slanderer of private character is the
meanest. And the meanest and most con-
temptble black-hearted scoundrel of this
species is the thing we shall not disgrace
our columns hereafter with his name, that
says he is the editor of the Steubenville Her
aid. No one is safe from him, for to accom-
plish his own selfish ends, he would slander
even an angel Of Heaven. Neither is the
powerless tenant of the grave, or sacred vir-
tue exempt from his malicious venom.
During the time that he could tyranize
over us--exact work from us without full
muneration-demand work from us on the
SABBATH DAY, and time and again to
the still hour Of midnight, and then refnse to
pay for he ~0rk-give us the bare pittance
of FIFTY CENTS to go to market with
all was well. He could speak well of us then.
Blu. change takes place in our affairs, and
we can proclaim to the world, his contempt
ible meanness, he forgets the high duty of
man to man, and strives at one grand stroke,
to bring us down to level with himself.
The editor of the Herald falling to gain
the political fame, which hethinks his talents
cntitle him to, is now grasping for notoriety.
But to do that requires two things, he does
not possess--a reputation for veracity, and
an object more credible than the qualification
of personal hatred.
In few words, to bring rival in busi-
ness into disgrace, or to injurc political op-
Fonent, he
"Is well prepared for every kind of fraud,
Would sellh country or betray his dear
est friend"
With regard to the charges which he has
brought against us, WE PRONOUNCE
THEM FALSE FROM BEGINNING TO
END, and dare him TO the proof In partic-
ular that "one Of he Sentinel men had been
arrested for vagrancy and drunkenness schen
IN that city,"
II is a positive falsehood that the paper
which we sent to the Herald last week, was
torn. We always send them as well printed
a paper, as wegive toour subscribers at home.
We beg the pardon of our readers for thus
referring to personal quarrel. Our charac-
ter, which is dear to us, having been assail-
ed, by man who is not only our political
opponent, but who seeks to injure us in busi-
ness, we deemed it our duty to hold him up
to our readers in all his hideousness. We
have done so, and our remarks to some, may
seem harsh, but ne knosO The man, and speak
Of him, only as he has spoken Of others.
Personally, we are now done with the edi-
tor Of the Herald, but if he wishes it, and is
not afraid, we are ready to meet him on po-
Itical questions

They [they Democrats tried TO defeat
and kill of General Taylor in the Mexican
War.-Whig papers.
We thought the Wings had some regard
for truth, but we think with the Trumbull
Democrat that we were mistaken. The
Democrats tried to kill of General Taylor in
the Mexican War, did they? Amos Tuck, a
WHIG Congressman from New Hampshire.
in speech in Congress gave utterance to the
following;
''Let the same vote that declared the war
unnecessary and unconstitutional, STARVE
1T TO DEATH by Withholding suppliesP'
Who avowed that sentiment in Congress?
NONE BUT WINGS, AND SAMUEL F.
YINTON, AMONG THE LEADING ONES
Who pronounced Gen. Taylor "Jour-
neyman throat-cuttet?" Horace Greedy, a
leading Wing editor
Who was it that expressed the hope that
our troops might receive welcome, with
"bloody hands, and ,hospitable graves?"-
Thomas Corwin, now Secretary OF the Trea-
sury, and one of the idols OF Ohio Whiggery
Who were elected Honorary members Of
the "Philanthropic Society of Mexico" for
pronouncing the war unconstitutional, un-
holy and damnable," and urging the Mexi-
cans not tie yield? Clay, Webster, Corwin
and other Wings.
Oh, yes, the Democrats tried to kill off
General Taylor in Mexico. Next we sup
pose the Wings will swear they never oppo-
sed the war.

EE- HENRY LONG, the fugitive slave taker
back from New York to the South, has beer
arrested and tried for making insurrectionary
speeches to the slaves. We rather guess
that our Southern brethren will find out tha
the very poorest use they can put a runaway
slave TO, is to take him back and subjec
him to slavery. It may crafty personal re-
venge SO to do, but the great cause of slave.
Try Is not benefited thereby. Every recap,
turcd slave is a missionary for freedom and
whether he speaks or not, his very presence
among slaves is standing epistle for liberty,
His case instantly suggests to his fellows the
idea Of escaping, and by long brooding on
the idea, some will be persuaded to carry ii
into practical operation.
