Very good-All right Mr.. Star-And we would
beg leave to add: who cares for the (nomnaD y

pathy for them since their recent charge of heart,
and loss of first love- made manifest by their fel-
lowshiping bunker wings, and supporting COM

marvelously susceptible of change is the mind of
man. Truly we tearfully and WONDERFULLY
made. Doubtful things very uncertain
Hurrah for John Van Buren and the compromise
ticket of Portage. A FREEsoILER LOOKING ON.
P. s. There are Freesolers who are temper
ance men and ardently desire the passage of the
Maine Law, who will not lose sight of the great
issue of the day in their anxiety to rid the land of
the curse of intemperance. Must Freesoilers
abandon the principles upon which their organiz-
alton is based in order to drive out the bottle If
so I am slow to understand the words of wisdom.

determine is, is Mr. HALL ssvile hypocrite" or
is Mr. HERR1cK guilty of falsehood! Which way

H. f. Paime and the Fusion i'm Guy
ahOSa.


The True Democrat like the Ohio Star has sold
itself to the Bank power, and is equally as reck-
less in its misrepresentation Of all those who will
not bow the knee to the power it worships, and
strive through "fUsion" to do it reverence. Even
the party of which it professe6 to be the or
gan, comes in for it's share. It's account of the
proceedings of the Free Soil Convention in Ceve-
land was SO unfair and false as to cali forth the
following note from r. F. PAINE, Esq, who has
been member of the Free Soil party from its
organization but who can see nothing to be gained
by the "fusion'' movement except surrender Of
the interests of the State into the hands of the
money power:
Mr.. EDIroR:-Some one has taken upon him
self in the True Democrat Of this morning to give
at length the proceedings of the Free Democratic
Convention of last Saturday. I take it that this
garbled batch of Misrepresentation and miserable
perversion of circumstances was not written by
YOURSELF but by some of the Fustian or Fusion
clique who have been more successful in impos-
ing upon you, than they were upon the Free De-
mocracy in Convention. I have read attentive
ly the article and selected from the multitude of
misrepresentation thirteen objectionable lies,
base and black. No mantle of charity can be
found broad enough to conceal such baseness.

The steamer Cortes arrived at San Francisco
on the 28th August, with the passengers which
left New York in the Northern, on the 9th Au-

The markets in San Francisco were dull dur
ing the month and the demand from the interior
light, and but little prospect of an Immediate i'm
provement.
Flour was dull, and the demand small.

opposition to Governor Bgler.
DR.. H. M. Gray has been nominated by the
Wings of San Francisco, for Mayor; and the
Democrats had nominated Capt c. K. Harrison
the agent of the Nicaragua Steamship Company
for the same office.
The brcklayers had struck for twelve dollars
day; and the hod carriers for six dollars at San
Francisco, and were both successful.
The taxable property is assessed at nearly
Twenty-nine millions dollars.
Nearly half the town of Sonora has been de-
stroyed by fire; it commenced at the Barnum Ho-
tel, and swept down the whole of Main street.
The business portion of the city was not injured.
The loss is set down at loco.
The Indian depredations in the Rouge River

whites had been butchered.

How MATTERS LOOK IN MExIco.-The Indi-
anola (Texas1 Bulletin of the 30th ultimo, has the
following:
Santa Anna is prosecuting measures strenu-
ously. ga tax of l2@ cents is imposed,' says the
Ledger, son2each member Of family, with un-
sparng rigor, causing much distress and COM
plants among the poor. An order has likewise
been issued for raising army for frontier de-
fence, to amount to ninety-one thousand men,
All men able to bear arms are Eemorselessly
pressed into bis service His designs against the
United States are foreshadowed in the late decree
of Santa Anna which, enjoins all who have suf-
fered from Indian depredations. to present their
claims to the city of Mexico He intends to de-
mand restitution under the treaty at Guadalupe
Hidalgo. This order has given rise to immense
fraud. Many claims, where injuries to the
amount of $50 have been sustained, are swollen
to $1,000.
Another paper has the following.
Santa Anna, it appears, when he left his resi-
dence to resume his dictatorship of Mexico, had
no great confidence in the stability of his power,
for he left his house in Tubaco, with all its furni
ture, cock-pits; and every thing ready to receive
him at a moments warning A personal friend
of the one legged hero thinks nothing will soften
him towards the United States but good round
sum, some millions in amount. He thinks the
United States will have trouble with him.

ave have borne in silence the contemplate
abuse with which LYMAN w. HALL, has endeav-
ord to provoke us, thus far, and we intend in fu
su give notice to any of his personal attacks
We leave him to the enjoyment of his own bitter
ness and malignity. 1t might be expected, that a
anaA,who once gave up the charge OF seurriilous
paper, because he felt it to be inconsistent with
his christian professions when backslidng he re-
turns to it again, would be seven-fold worse than
before. We envy him not the enjoyment of his
vomitings, nor would we choose to be found in his
place, when he stands before the Great Tribunal
10 render his account. For the present, we are
willing to abide by the verdict of the community
in which we reside. In future that editor can
pursue the course that most pieases him, and
maintain his dignity by low billingsgate black
guardism. We shall treat him gentlemanly as
we have thus far striyed to do, regardless of his
sayings and doings

Brimlield Meeting.
BRTMFIELD, OC

BRIMFIELD, Oct 8, 1853,
EDITORS OF SENTINEL: A communication ap-
pears in the last weeks Star, signed Sweet Bill
in which the author makes himself ridiculous in
attempting to heap ridfcule upon the Democracy
of Brimfeld, for attending regularly arranged
discussion held in the East School House, on
Wednesday night, (not Tuesday, as he states }
Sept. 2lst. We think he would have made his
foot prints palmer had he signed his name Brown
Bill, prince of jack-asses. 1t has been said that
ga rose by any other name will smell as SWEET
and we venture the assertion that iack-ass with
another name will bray as loud. He finds fault
with the Democrats for crowding the little school
house, but forgets to state that unless they had
done so s'Sweet Bill and office-hating Elder Bard
would have been under the necessity of s:wasting
their sweetness on the desert air.' He says they
Che locofocos) went for the purpose of putting
down Elder Bard who was expected to conduct
little Maine Law meeting.' This is not the fact
They went on the strength of challenge which
was given them to meet and. discuss the, princi-
pies of the new ''fusion" party. Friend Kelso
went to Elder Bard on the Saturday preceding and
made arrangements with him to meet him and dis
cuss the following question: (which is calculated
to do the greatest good to the greatest number,
the new Fusion party, or the old Democratic par
ty!" With regard to his contemplate slang about
friends Gilett Strawder and Jeries it is too low to
receive consideration from even citizen of sober
andenlig ightenedBr He states that Elder Bard
met those anti Maine law champions and discom-
fited them. Now we of sober and enlightened
Brimfeld think otherwise. it is true that our
friends were Disappointed in the Bard that sung,
though not dsscomsfted Neither do we think they
would have been even if the great broaon Bard
serf of the Portage Co. Branch Bank had been
there to sing to them. With regard to the farce
that was enacted, il consisted in certain Rever-
end gentleman backing out and refusing to debate
the question, and excusing himself by telling de-
liberatc falsehood. MECHANIC

The Ohio Stars opinion of John 9.
Herrick and F. B. PlimptOn.

"The Wing of the Goth inst, bestows half
column of personalities upon the editor the Star
applying to him the term :sVile hypocrite,' and
sundry other epithets, cuiied from a like choice
vocabulary. Did not self-respect forbid it, we
could teach the editor of the Wing, and the young
gentleman whe writes for him, that in personal
warfare, there are blows to take as well as blows
to give. But, spiced as the Wings attack upon
us 10 with vulgar blackguardism, we cannot enter
the lists where even victory would be disgrace.
The application of such languagesto us, and the
manifestation SUCH US, can neith-
er do US harm, nor disturb our equanimity Ifthe
Wing has reputation enough to afford to indulge
in that tuaV. be itso:a
