w "Well, we shall see how many of the
free soil Wings in the county, Especially in
FORK township,) will go with him in declaring
un6ounded confidence, in Fillmere's admins
traton, fugitive slave law, compromise meas
ures and all, and vote in favor of Vinton. who
was one OF the prime supporters of that odious
measure, for Governor" democrat
We presume there is not Wing in San
dusky county, worthy of the name, but what
will go as far as the late Wing convention, in
his approval of Fillmorc's administration. That
convention did not approve of the compromise
measures of Congress, but placed that ques-
ton upon higher grounds; declared that they
were measures which Wings could honestly
differ upon; that as they were not recommen-
ded by Wings, or passed by Wbig Congress.
che Whiy party were under no special obliga-
tions to take them under their protection. The
following is the resolution passed by the con-
vention upon that subject:
ResoLVed, That as the compromise measures
were not recommended by Wing admins
trat;on, and were not passed as party meas
ures by Congress, perfect federation of opinion
respecting those measures should be accorded
to Wings everywhere.
Thus it will be seen that the Democrats
assertion that the Wing convention endorsed
the compromise measures, is about as true as
Asop's fables But again, the Democrat as
serts that Mr.. Vinton was one ofthe prime sup
porters of the fugitive slave law. Now Mr.
Orton is either very badly posted up. on the
doings of Congress, or else is one of the most
hardened political sinners in this part of the
Locofoco vineyard. Mr.. Vinton voted against
the fugitive slave law in all its different sta
ges-against its first, second and third read
ings, and against its final passage. See Con-
gressional reports, page 1906, year 1850. He
not only voted against the fugitive slave law,
but against the Texas ten million bill, which
gave to Taxas and Slavery so large portion
of the free soil of New Mexico The only por-
ton of the compromise measures which he did
vote for, was the admission of California, and
the abolishment of the slave trade in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Now the Democrat can have no further rea.
son for misrepresenting Mr.. Vinton upon the
compromise measures, except wilful one, and
if he has disposition to "do unto others as he
would wish to be done by" he will at once
place that gentleman right before his readers

Sion Thief! Stop Thief!

A thief no sooner sees the officers ofjustice
on his track, then he begins to hollow Justify,
"stop thief! stop theft and thus draws the
attention of those standing around from him
self TO some other object.
We were reminded Of the above anecdote,
by reading neighbor Orton's article, in his last
weeks paper, headed corruption in high Pla-
ces." The editor is attempting to direct the
attention of the citizens of Sandusky county
from the corruption in low places" to what
he is pleased to say, is corruption in high pla-
ces." But there are some facts, in relation to
these smaller "Galphins'' here at home when
made public, that will require more tact and
ingenuity, then has yet been displayed by the
Democrat, to attract the attention of the pub
lie from. The enormous sums paid for the
small amount of printing done in this county
is one item in this "Galphinism'' business
that we shall in due time present to The pub
| lie. We shall also show how the law regula-
ting the printing has been violated, by what
printers call stretching out" and making 1t
cost more than it otherwise would.
This cry of corruption in Washington city,
is but another resort of the Democrat, to Gre
ate political capital, and keep the minds of his
readers on affairs at distance. The editor Of
the Democrat can pursue that subject to his
hearts content; we shall attend to the politi
cal Sinners in our immediate vicinity.

Mr.. VintOn on theCOmprOmise Meas
mPeS.

Mr.. Denny:-Slnce my return from the Wing
State Convention, have taken the pains to
examine how Mr.. Vinton voted on what are
called the Compromise Measures 1t may
be well to remark, that these measures were
not much debated in the House of of Repre-
sentatives they having been matured in the
Senate and sent down to the Lower House.
Early in the session, the Presidents Message
and Mr. Doty's bill to admit California were
referred to the Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union. Under that reference
nearly all the debates on the slavery question,
in all its aspects. were had.
During the course of debate, several pro-
positions were introduced, favoring the admis-
sion of California uuconnected with all other
measures. In favor of these propositions, Mr..
Vinton uniformly voted. But they were ali
smoLhered by parliamentary tactics, and the
House finally passed the Senate bill. Mr.. Vim
ton voted in favor OF its passage, Sept. q
$780, (See c. Globe p. l773) Mr.. Vinton voted
against the bill establishing a Territorial Cow
ernment for Utah, Sept Z, 1850. (See Cong
Globe, p.1776.) He also voted against Texas
Boundary Bill and Mr.. Boyd's amendment
the New Mexico Territorial Bill (See the
proceedings of :he House, Sep 4-es Cong
Globe, pages 1858, 1764.) These Territorial
Bills, it will be remembered, contained no.
clause prohibiting slavery.
Early in the session, Mr.. Ashe, of N. Car
olina, introduced Fugitive Slave Bill ID
lay unacted upon till Sept. g. 1850, when Linn
Boyd moved to take it up; Mr.. Vinton voted
against that motion. (See Cong Globe, p.
177s) On the 18th of September, 1850. the
Fugitive Slave Bill from the Senate came ER
in the House. (See Cong Globe p. 1So6.s
Mr.Vinton voted against the bill three times as
the ayes and meas could be called under the
gag of the Preaious Question TO lay the
bill on the table; secondly, against its third
and then against its FINAL passage.
The only other branch of the Compromise
is the bill abolishing the Slave Trade IN the
District of Columbia Mr., Vinton voted IN
favor of this bill Sept II, 1850 (See Cong,
Globe, p. 1s37)
But will not make this article longer
have no design to do more than simply
refer your readers to the facts, by stating
where they can be found, Next week, with
your leave, shall refer to Mr.. Vinton's votes
on some resolutions kindred to the measures
embraced in the compromise schem, especially
Mr.. Doiy's, Mr. Roots and Mr.. Giddings' res

York Township.

In the last Democrat is an anonymous COM
munication signed "York township" When
ever the writer has any charges to prefer
against us, either as to our "incapacity," or
"gross carelessness" on the part of our subs
and will present them in an authentic man.
ner, over his own proper signature, we shall
pay due respect to him. But we want it un-
derstood, distinctly, too, that we shall pay no
farther attention to anonymous communica-
tons from that source. In the mean time, we
lay down these propositions:
Ist. That the late census of this county
were taken according to the instructions of the
census Department
I'd. That we derived our census informa-
ton from some person in each family, and if
there are errors in the returns-which we We
ry much doubt-it was not in our power to
prevent them, we being required to enter in
formation on our books exactly as we receiv-
ed it.
3rd. That the writer canqot show that We
neglected our duty, or that we employed any
subs to assist us. We employed one or
two clerks to copy our returns; the statistical
information we gathered ourself
And we will lay down another proposition,
that "York township" is Locofoco Office
holder, that he has been a Whig probably a
Free Soler, and Locofoco. and that he don'I
live one hundred miles from the court house
