FREE SOIL WITH WH1G PRocL1v1T1Es.-The
Summit Beacon, in reply to an article in the Star,
asserting that that and perhaps other whig papers
are discussing the propriety of nominating, by
the Wing Convention, Samuel Lewis for Cover
nor, and Reuben Hitchcock for Supreme Judge,
denies that there is the least probability of such
result being brought about and that $50 far as
Governor is concerned, the idea will not be seri-
ously entertained for moment by the Conven-
ton" But the Beacon thinks ssThe nomination
of Mr.. Hitchcock, would be much less seriously
opposed; on account of his aceH kno,on Wing pro-
cziUities'' Let those Free Soilers whose procIiv-
tiles are strongly in favor of the principles en-
bodied in the platform oftheir party, treasure
this fact in their memories against the day of e.
lection. If they do, they cannot give their sup
port to candidate, even of their own party, who
has such fwell known inclination to the princ-
pies of whiggery, unless they are utterly bank
rupt in political honesty.

For the Portage Sentinel.


The Editor of the Ohio Star, after having, in
late number of his paper, abused the County
Commissioners without stint, for nothing but
contemplating, Just contemplating, the erection
of new Infrmary buildings, now, in his last edito
rial, effects to abate somewhat of his abuse; but
in pretended communication, bearing however,
evident marks of its editorial paternity he abuses
the Commissioners, and divers of fsthe rest of man
kind without rhyme or reason-excepting how
ever, very graciously, the Auditor elect, and his
democratic friends. To them he obsequously
pays his court, as to the rising sun; though at the
expense of Auditor Mcbride, at whom he is par
ticularly bitter, charging him, and also the Com
missioners, with acting under whig influence.
Yes, the Editor would make Auditor Mcbride,
the County Commissioners, and the Wing party,
responsible for the vile crime of contemplating
the erection of new Buildings for the unfortunate
poor of our county, when the editor himself, ad-
mits the necessity of new buildings, but not so
costly ones as his friend Skinner, who projected
and made the draft, contemplated.
But, to the Auditor elect and his democratic
friends, the editor is particularly courteous at this
tie county pap, operates in the brain of the very
patriotic Editor. But, when he applauds the
competency ofthe Auditor elect, about whom he
knows nothing, he no doubt blunders on one truth;
though the cloven foot is made to stick out so
pain that all can see the drift of such obsequi-
BUSINESS, toward one he lately opposed so foolish
ly. He wants pap; but if Auditor Frost, should
dare to cross him, by Withholding the patronage
of his office, he can see that he too, may expect
to be denounced in turn.
The charge on Auditor Mcbride, of whig infence
is too foolish to need contradiction. Few me m
bers of the Democratic party, if any, have exerted
more influence for the party for the last five years
than he has, of which the democrats of the county
are duly sensible.
He is infinitely above the reach of such petty
malgnty, as appears to dwell in the breast OF
the Editor of the Star. He has, long and desc rv-
edly, stood high in the confidence of his party,
and such taunts and gibes as appears in the Star
fall harmless at his feet or pass by him as the
idle wind. If, to crafty his friends, he permitted
them to use his name in the convention, he was
abundantly satisfied with respectable vote there
and after having served two terms, was content to
abide the vote, ON the democratic principle of ro-
tation, and make way for democratic friend tc
take his place.
The bungling attempt of the Star, in its last
editorial to assume the credit of heading off,
what he calls sthe extravagant movement of the
Commissioners,appears the more ridiculous, when
it is known that the commissioners have never
only instituted enquire S iuto the propriety o
erecting new Infrmary buildings, and have held
no session since the abusive editorial of the Star
appeared; and therefore, if it has influenced them
its influence has not yet appeared in their proceed
ings. CITIZEN.

PuBzEnHc TEE LAws.-The Bill which has
passed the Ohio House, and is now pending in
the Senate, to reduce the expense of publishing
the laws in newspapers, strikes US as eminently
just-SIGr.
Circumstances alter cases. A year ago, when
that paper enjoyed that patronage, it made no
complaint that the price paid was too high. Then
the price which is now paid was "eminently just. -
Would not the Star like to see the Legislature
interfere to cut down the rates of legal adverts-
ing to one-third the present charges. We reckon
not. And yet those rates are nearly three fold
greater than the price allowed for publishing the
laws
Portage sentinel. [volume] (Ravenna, Ohio) 1845-1854, 1853-02-23

QUITE A PILE.-The New York Herald says:
"The returns for the last eleven months from the
mount Alexander and Ballnrat dggngs, in Aus
tralia, it appears, amount to nearly seventy-four
tons of gold-that is to say, about thrty-two mill
ion ofdollars. But the total export from the is
land since October last rises to an aggregate of
nearly forty-fve millions, with perhaps ten mill
ions awaiting expectation, or in the hands of the
miners or escorts to the seaports. Upon these
data we may safely assume that the sum total of
the yield of the Australian gold mines, during the
last twelve MONTHS will exceed in value the enor-
nous aggregate of seventy-five millions of dol
lars"
How long will it take at this rate before there
will be enough specie in the world to do its bust
mes with, SO that filthy rags and lamp-black may
be dispensed with.

Claim for Noah,s Ark.

The Cincinnati Enquirer notices claim which
it says, it is ntimated sis about to be urged be-
fore Congress for indemnity to the direct heirs of
the honorable Mister Noah, who it will be recol-
lected, had his big boat badly STAYED during high
aoater, long time ago, upon one of the bars of
Rocky Mountains The claim is certainly ven-
cradle in point of years, but we doubt not Mr..
Corwin could obtain its allowance if application
were made to them before the present Administra-
ton is relieved of its responsibilities.
