OurRAsEoUs CoaDUcr--L LOcefoco Lotn tor T
Foreiosers.-The love of foreigners on the H
mart of such men as Col. Medill, and the 9
men who do his dirty work, while he does the =
dirty talking, is only skin deep-lastingju /
as long as they vote to elevate the dema-
rogues to office and no longer. Should |
these men by any possibility ask for an Of !
fee, they are told as in New Hampshire that
they are not qualified aud are laughed at for i
their simplicity SHOULD they refuse to vote the
Locofoco ticket, they are called reuegaIcs and !
traitors, as much as to say they have no
right to exercise tho privilege of freeman.
So much for that. We have just at hand
new fact, going still further than this, pro-
scrbing them for opinions sake. In Ham
ilton county, the Germans voted against the
Miami tribe and beat the party. Jesse Tim
anus was Chief of the tribe and as Commits
sioner of the Court House, now erecting,
had number OF foreigners under his employ.
They didn't vote the ticket, and what was
the consequence!
"On Friday last" says the Cincinnati
Gassite, "and for some time previous, there
were upwards of 100 laborers at work on
the new Court House, worthy foreigners,
under the superintendent Of Jesse Timanus,
Commissioner. They were expected to vote
for the Tribe, and the Chief had an eye upon
them, TO see if they were faithful, and voted
according to order Well, the result disap-
pointed Jesse-the tribe is defeated--and in
his wrath he yesterday discharged these la
boters--left them to beg, to starve, or find
employment elsewhere. Why was this done!
We cannot say, but it is said that some oI
these laborers are knorR, and others are Sus.
pected, Of having voted for Wings and other
opponents of the Tribe. They were indc-
pendent enough to vote for whom they pleas
cd, like freemen This was presumptuous
They are dismissed, and the reader can
guess why, as we'll as we can.
"The Commissioner, Timauus, has haE
the handling of the money appropriated fol
the public buildings, and we understand he
.old the laborers, he had not funds to pay fol
more labor, and they must go! Having done
he went into the Auditors Office, and
he did not hang himself, but entered his rel
ignation of the office he held on the books
Alas, poor Jesse! we hope nothing wors
may follow this act. We can bear up undt
the resignation, and should he ask re-ele'
ton, the people will repudiate him and h
tribe-rebukc him, in tones not to be easil
forgotten.
"Much money has been bet and lost on til
election in Hamilton county, but we hop
the losses, severe though they are, may NJ
bring out any new batch of Galphins. b
that as it may, the work on the Court Houf
ought mott to be suspended, because III
Chiefs of the Miami Tribe have been r.
buked-the workmen ought out not to
turned out without other cause than DARN
to be freemen, even under the new Constit
ton; and may we not hope that the ne
Commissioner will take his seat as prompt
as Timanus did, appoint new Commissio
or of the Court House, resume the work, u
then take time to investigate what has be
done heretofore, and how our money h
been disposed Of"
FRoM IowA,-Gov. Lucas is working ha
for Scott. The last Iowa Republican CO
tains another article from him giving
reasons for going for the old Hero. He su
ports the same policy now that he did VIII
he supported the administration Of Gener
Jackson. He remarks:
With regard to general policy, the Leis
cratic administrations of Jefferson, Maft
and Jackson, all united - give prdsecyiiltt
the industry Of the country 10 ifhurt nll1I
facturers to make what we aeg5ac- ums IN,
such materials as would render lAs isLsi1s
Of the country completely independents
all control of foreign nations. These grS
lights of democracy also, considered it be
constitutional and expedient, m REGULATE
commerce between the States, to mpro
rivers and harbors whenever such impro,
ments might be deemed necessary to a
vance tho general interest and prosperity
the country"
He will vote for Gen. Scott not only b
cause he is the advocate Of this doctrine, b
because he will be the President in fac
lie says he wants no more nominal Prei
dents, such as he is convinced Mr.. Pier
would make. But the Eagle says he vot
for Scott, because he eats opium, II
young men of that sheet think old men ha,
no right to think for themselves. The abo
extract shows, however, that Gov. Lucas
member Of the American, aud not Of Il
British party.
FALSE RuMoRs.--It is said considerab
sensation was created in Boston on Frid
evening, by the circulation ai rumor tl
Gen. Scott was lying i'll in Ohio, and n
expected to live twenty-fo hours. III
rumor was soon followcdby another that
was dead OF course these rumors W,
without the least foundation,
6TMr. Webster's health, 80 reports Fl
Marshfeld says, has been very bad for
past week. In lieu oi his annual cata
he has had the bilious colo badly, and
Jackson was sent for from Boston. II
now better, but not well enough to enterl
or even see cowpany.
