Secretary COrwin and the Miner
Transfers

Mr. Corwin for some time past has been
yindictively assailed by the Locofoco press
without stint, for having, while Secretary of
the Treasury, made transfers Of the public
money in the spirit Of what they call ''reck-
less culpable departure from the straight for.
ward caution Of Messrs. Walker & Meredith.
The loss Of sos, 900 or 100000 to the
Government, through the transfer draft Of Mr..
Miner, which was given notoriety by common
rumor, who is truly said, (and in this instance
most correctly to be common liar''-has
been seized upon by the Locoiocos and her.
aided to the world as damnable act of "cor-
ruption and fraud" while some have gone so
far as 10 call il "robbing."
Now it so happens that until! Mr.. corwln
himself adopted the rule, the practice of the
department was not to take security of those
entrusted with transfers or public money.
In regard to the Miner transfer. Of which so
much had been said Of late. we give the fol-
lowing fiom the Baltimore American. Which
no doubt presents the facts Of the case.-Lor-
isviHe Courier
Mr.. VIM. Miner who has always borne the
highest character for integrity, and now holds
the responsible Office Of clerk of the distriCt
court Of the United Stats for the district OF
Ohio, las the agent Of City Bank Of Colum-
bus Insurance Company solicited and OBJ
tanned a transfer draft Of 100000. the mons
ey for which was to be placed TO the credit Of
the Government, at New Orleans, within 30
days.

The Governor has deemed it appropriate
to take the following formal farewell Of the
citizens of the State. We find the address in
the Cleveland papers:

BeautIful Thoughts.

God has sent some angels into the world
whose Office il Is to refresh the sorrows ofthe
poor, and TO tighten the eyes Ofthc discon'
solate. And what greater pleasure can We
have than that Of bringing joy TO ouT brothers
that the tongue should bo tuned with heav-
emily accents and make the weary soul listen
for ligh, and ease; and when he perceives
there is such thing in the world, and in
the order Of things, as comfort and Joy, to
begin TO break out from the prison Of his
sorrows at the door ofsighs and tears, and
by little and little begin to nell into
showers and rcfrsshment-this is glory 10
thy yoice and employment fit for the bright.
angels So | see the sun kiss the frozen
earth, which was bound up with the images
of death, and the colder breath of tho north.
and the waters break from their enclosures,
and melt with JOY and run in useful chan
nels, and tho flies do rise from little graves
in the walls; and dance little whilo IN the
air. to tell that Joy is within, and that the
great mother of creatures will open the stock
of her new Tsfiesbment, become useful to
mankind and sing praises TO her redeemer.
SO is the heart ofa sorrowful man under the
discourse Of wise comfort; he breaks from
the despair Of the grave, and the feiters
and chains Of sorrow; he blesses God. and
he blessos thee, and he feels his lite teturn'
ing.

The resolutions of the State Temperance
Convention, after sleeping very profoundly
for over week in somebody's breeches pock-
ct, have finally turned up in the "OAio Stale
Times" weekly, Freesoil paper in Mt. Yer
non. We copy them for the benefit of our
readers and hope they will be preserved as
the platform of the Maine law movement in
Ohio:
Whereas, it is an organic and inalionable
right and duty of freemen to protect their
lives, their liberty, and their property and
therefore to prohibit any manufacture or com.
mercial pursuit which necessarily DESTROYS
human life, impairs human liberty, DESTROYS
property; and whereas, the manufacture and
sale, commonly know as the liquor traffic, for
drinking purposes, is in Ohio awfully destruc-
tive of all these-life, liberty, property, and
domestic happiness; therefore,
1st Resolved By this convention, that il is
the sacred duty of the freemen of Ohio to use
every constitutional means 10 prohibit, by law,
this infamous manufacture and traffic.
I'd. Resolved, That the overwhelming vote
in favor of stringent prohibitory law, given
in Michigan, on the Goth inst, not only re.
fleets the highest honor upon the virtue and
intelligence Of the electors of that State, but
should forever silence the silly clamor of DEM
agogues that the people are not prepared for
the annihilation of the liquor manufacture and
traffic.
Sd. RESOLVED, That the submission of a
similar question to the people of Ohio would
be followed by like result, and the friends
of this manufacture and traffic dare not go
to the contrary" on this issue.
4tb. RESOLVED, That inasmuch as il NAV be
inconsistsnt with the organic Law of Ohio, TO
submit this QUESTION to the electors, as it has
been in other States we have no alternative
but TO vote only for such candidates for the
| General Assembly as are committed in favor
of the proposed measure.
| 5th. RESOLVED, That we utterly discaim all
desire to form an Independent party. or to dis.
turb those already existing but we are deter
mined to secure the speedy exter mination of
the manufacture aud traffic in liquor as bey.
erage.
9th. Resolved, That we do not favor the
formation ofindependent Of tickets, except when
all the political parties refuse to present can
didates within reasonable time, who are no I
right on this great question.
7th Resolved That considerable sum Of
money will be indispensable to carry on this
campaign--to distribute temperance publ.
cations, employ lectures. &C., and that the roll
of counties be called, and the delegates from
each be requested to respond as to what a.
mount may be relied upon from their jurisdic-
tions.
9th. RESOLVED That State Central Com
mittee of Five be appointed. who shall be
charged with the duty of employing lectures.

ever may seem necessary to secure the elect
ion of majority of members in the next Leg.

Singular History.

Elihu Yale, the founder of Yale College at
New Haven, Conn.,, lies buried in the Church
at Wrexham, Wales. His monument, plain
altar tomb, bears this inscription:
''Bornin America, In Europe bred,
In Africa travelled and in Asia wed;
Where long he lived and thrived, in London dead.
Much good, some i'll, he did; SO hope al's even.
And that his soul thro' mercy's gone to Heav'n'
You that survive and read this tale, take care
For this most certain exit 10 prepare;
Where blest in peace the actions Of the lust,
Smell sweet and blossom ia the silent dust"
The strangest fact is yet to tell. It's re-
corded that Mr.. Yale went out to the East
Indies from this country as an adventure, and
becoming wealthy obtained the presidency of
Madras and is said to have ruled with most
oppressive authority. He caused his groom
to be hanged for riding out favorite horse
without leave. For this murder he was order.
ed to England where he was tried for. the
crime, but by some means escaped all punish
ment, except heavy fine. He died in 1924.
