Col Medin

The following from the Lancaster Eagle,
printed at the home Of Col. Medill, a can
didate for Governor, will put to rest the base
charges which have lately been set aioa; by
the wing press in this State, about his be-
ing an Incorporate man.
The Wing party, seeing that they are
doomed to utter defeat on the second Tues
day of next October, have, thus early, hiss
ed on their pack Of howling ours, to ira
duee aad Willy the character of Col. Me-
DILL, The Xenia ToreA-LiyhL, whose editor
is a fit tool to lead of in the dirty work, has
admitted into its columns the %etfusion of a
base slapderer. charging Col. MEDLL with
intemperancei the editor of that sheet, know
ing the moral character of this gentleman,
as he most surely did, is as culpabie as the
writer himself; he doubtless admitted the
base SANDER into his columns Tor the pur-
poses of breaking the force Of the charges
against Mr.. Barrere by several of the dem
oeratic papers, OF being a lite to fond Of
the ardent himself. We had not intended
to notice the charges, so ridiculous and I'M
founded as they are, which every one in this
community, and elsewhere, who are acquain.
ted with Col. Medill can fully bear witness.
BUT, rs the story has been noticed in other
papers, we deem it our duty to unequivocal.
ly deny the ~charSe-to distinctly say that
the charge against Col. Medill of .'taking
too much strong drink" either last winter,
or at any other Time during his whole lie,
is wholly untrue, Col. Medill is in every
respect a temperate man-has never at any
time been in the habit Of using Intoxicating
drinks as Il beverage, and until nearly thir,
ty ~ ears of age never tasted any kind OF
spirituous liquors. lie has never been in.
toxicated or IL the least under the nfiuen c
Of liquor in his life.
Col. Mediil has been much in public life.
and exposed to all the temptations which
beset and too ofiep o,ercome oul pub ic
men-but during all the exposures BY
which he has, been surrounded, in pubic
and private life, he has pursued ii course oil
strictestin egrlty, and exhibited in all lis
habits of life OF temperance and sobrie,y.-
The charge, therefore, of drinking and in
temperance against him, viii b. somethin.
new to the people OF this place, where he
has resided since his boy hood, except when
absent on public bus ness.

The New England Methodist Con-
ference.

At the 6cssion OF the Methodis!s Confer.
encc at Ipswich, May 2, the Committee on
Slavery reported the following series Of
resolutions, which after some considerable
discussion, were adopted.
lst--That as h Conference we are as full.
ly and deeply convinced as ever that all
voluntary slave holding, or holding oil
slaves in bondage for the sake Of gain, un.
der any circumstances, is a fragrant sin
against God and humanity.
2d-That it is our deliberate and settled
opinion, that no more persons guilty of the
sin Of slave-holding, should be admitted as
members into our Church /.
3d--That we are t ully persuaded that il
a proper dicipilne were duly administered,
or if the spirit even of our present. dici-
plire were fully carried out, all voluntary
shareholders would either be brought to re-
pentance and reformation of life, or for the
sin of slayehoIdins be expelled from the
church. ...
4,h-That there is d difference Of opin-
ion, as to whether our decipline, as it now
reads, would exclude such persons {. ON our
communion, lis the sense of this confer
encc, that the difference should be- so alter
ed and amended as 10 include a well det-
ned and clearly expressed rule prohibiting
their reception into the communion oil the
Methodist Episcopal Church.
The con ,%ention, after passing resolutios
in favor Of the Maine Law. resolved to send
five delegates to represent the Conference
at the Worlds Temperance Convention. (.

a question Of general enquiry among all Of

Mr.. Van Buren,s EUROPEAN Tour.

the steamer Arctic, which recently left New

his son Martin, IN hopes that il will be ben

somewhat impaired. Mr.. Van Buren, is the
FIRST American ex-President that ever visit

attention wherever he goes. In connection
with this tour the New York Herald iDdul-

The Crops-the Season.

Never has a spring opened out with a bet
ter prospect for abundont crops than the
present one. All kinds of fruit promise
finely, and with nc late frosts will yield in
plenty. Wheat, farmers tell us, promises to
be a full crop. With the exception of a
few spots damaged by the frost, the fields
look green and luxuriant. Grass is COM
ing forward with great rapidly, and its ef-
fects are already visible in the improved ap-
perance of stock; yellow--and we hope soon
to recorl cheapning-butter, &c. The far
mers have had little cause to complain for a
year past. and from present appearances
will have noue for the yeaE to come.-Steu.

Eg-Crops Of all kinds look just about the
same way in this county. Our farmers are
all in good spirits, and well they may be,
for Providence seems to be f~avoring them
with an abundance Of the f~ullness of the

Mrs. Stoves Charity.

The following incident, related by the
New York Democrat, shows the extent of
Mrs. Harriet Beechcr S.owe's sympathy for
the 'poor slave" The story runs. that
''there was recently a family Of thirty slaves
in Virginia which the owner offered to sell
into freedom at a very small price, and
some benevolent parties in Philadelphia un-
dertook 10 raise the amount by subscription.
The facts were presented, by letters. to
Mrs. Sigourney. who Immediately enclosed
twenty-five dollars for the object. Mrs.
Harr.e. Beecher Stowe was also written to,
and, of course, she responded by sending Il
very large sun of money for the GLORIOUS
purpose" She had just realized an i'm
mense fortune by her abolitionism-she was
on the eve Of starting for England, to be
teted by the Duchess of Sutherland, and ca
ressed by the hand Of the nobility, and of
course she gave a pery large sum TO pur
chase these thirty slaves. No, good reader,
she gave not one cent. She sent back a let
ter full of sweet sympathy Astounding with
the charity Of advice and approval, but as
empty Of money as herown face is of shame
at the contemplate part she is now playing
in England, Of forging a States evidence
against her country. No, she had no mon
ey for The poor slave AS her eminent
friend and co-laborer, Mr.. Aminadab Sleek,
would say, 1t is not in our way Her
mission is to make money out Of negro
philanthropy, and not for it."
That's the truth, plainly spoken. She has
made a good "pile'' out of it, and is in a
fair way TO make mere.

Shall we have a State ConYen-

When our attention waS FIRST cslled to this

ton.
We respectfully ask Of the Ohio Demo-
cratic press an exchange Of sentiment in this
regard. Many have thought that a conven.
ton might be obviated by a nomination by
the State Central Committee; and that as a
Convention would necessarily be small, and
as troublesome questions might arise,-iI
would be better 10 dispense with a Conven.
ton. Others. and perhaps the greater mum.
Der, prefer a Convention; believing that as nc
large Convention would be expected, so nc
di appointment would result; and holding
that unless this officer were nominated by
a Convention, the Office might be consider
ed as OF little Importance, 1ohich, M 81 uRae-
niaJly. IL is not.
We have refrained from pressing our
views, where there seemed such a conlrarie-
ty Of o~piuion. But there are some reasons
fof a Convention which should be considel-
ed BY all who have at heart, the election oil
il Democratic officer.
Aside from personal considerations, which
would prevent us from urginga selection
by the State Committee, (as we are upop
hat Committee, and as our co-editor is its
Secretary, wishing to avoid any appear
ance or charge Of ciiqaery, which is very
ready TO attach to the exercises, of a pow
err not within the ordinary range of the
Commuters duties; believing as we do, that
a very fair representation Of The Democracy
might be had upon the fourth of July, or
indeed upon any other day; know ing that
dissatisfaction would insuc. if the Commit
Tee presumed to exersise a power not dele

be Of the utmost consequence, and that
there woull be danger OF sighting its i'm
portance. knowing that the Democratic
Conventions have been held in Columbus
twice "a year.-and having the welfare of
the party and State at heart, and only these,
we give our hest judgment in the prem
Uses in favor of a Convention.
The CO nmittee will be called together
sometime during the present month. We
know that they will give the question, a
candid consideration.
The proceeding remarks are called for,
by enquiries. as to our opinions. We give
them for what they are WORTH State&mGn.

More Fillmore Galphanism Dis
covered,

The Washington correspondent of the
Buffalo Courier says:
Serious l~mproprieties have recently been
discovered in the last Administration of the
finances, and the proper officers of the Trea-
sury arc now engaged in their develop
ment in detail. They consist, as far as yet
explored, principally in fAvors Illegally gran
ted TO favori.es in the matter Of using the
public funds. Thus, a contract is made
with A, to deliver in ninety daysat New Or
leans (from New York; alarge sum Of mon
ey,A. getting the use Of the money for
that time and a commission for his trouble.
One doy before the expiration of the nine'y
days an order is issued, changing the place
OF delivery to st. Louis, and Of course ex-
tends the time for ninety days longer, with
a econd commission; and one day before
the st. Louis delivery is to be made, anoth-
er order Of change Of point of delivery to
Cincinnati .ismade, and a third commission
Is allowed with a third period Of ninety days
use Of the public money. And, again, one
day'before that period expires, New York
is made the point Of delivery, and thirty
days more time. Thus. f~ayorites Of the
late Administration have been loaned the
public funds without law for periods of lon
ger or shorter duration, and have received
commissions to a large amount for avaiIing
themselves of the Temporary aid Of the pub
lie money without the rendition Of more
than fictitious services.
