The New Lisbon Palladium, rather q re-
spectacle whig journal, after long squir1n,
has concluded to go fusion. After ceming
down to it. il thus disposes Of free scilism.
Il says that free-soilism has been swallowed
Up BY the whig parry. This is the same
boast that number of wings in this county
are now making. we ask our free soil
friends to give attention to the following ex-
tract from the Palladium:
"The Freesoil papers. 50 for as we have
any knowledge, have yielded an unsolicited
snd willing acquiescence in support of the
state nominees. Thus we have accom-
plished what we ever desired, "a consolidation
ofthe wrangling and warning elements OF
the Wing party. which, by the action Of this
convention, is hushed into quietude; and har-
mopious action pervades the once broken
line, which, taken as whole. used to deal
out death and Obstruction to the monster To-
cofocoism," &c.
John Frost, the editor of the New Lisbon
Aurora, an able free soil paper, thus dispo.
ses of the above extract of its 4eighbor o.
the Palladium:
"Now where is the difference between the
Buckeye and Palladium? Here 'harmoni

It means that the Freesol party is dead
Are FreesoiIers ready for this? Fusion con

triumphs, before one year it will annihiIat
itself; for there is not harmony in its eIe
ments, nor can there be.

RECEIPTS and Expenditures.

Every county in this State, save this, We
believe, has publisheded before this time
their receipts and expenditures for tho past
year, Why is it, we ask again, that the
Auditor of Harrison county has not pub
lished hers? This is a question that the
taxpayers Of Harrison county wish answer
cd. Will Mr.. Sloan publi-h them before
the eectonF No. And why? because there
has been expenditures that they are asham-
ed to let the people see before the October
election After that is over, when they
think the people have become 4uieted and
paid their taxes. they will publish them.
We ask tha tax payers of Harrison county
| if it is right, that the annual settlement
which is made on the FIRST Monday of June
should not be Published until the Grst Mon
day OF November? Every one OF them will
answer that it is not Is there no remed,
for this neglect Of duty? There is, and il
Is this: Place man in that office whc
comes up to the Jefersonian standard. and
it will be done. AS the people have the

The Convenfinn.


The democratic county convention which
met on last Monday. was the largest that has
ever met, Of either party, in Cadiz for a
number of years. Every township in the
county was represented, and all fully rep
resented but two, Washington and Monroe.
Washington lacked one delegate and Mon
roe two, making the whole number of dele.
gates in Convention FoRTY-Two. The dele.
gates inform Us that the township meetings
in the different townships, we're larger than
they we're ever known to be heretofore.-
This augurs well for success. 1t shows
plainly and conclusiyely, that the more oppo-
sition the real democracy of Harrison cOun-
ty have to contend against. the more esger
they are for the fight. The counienances
of the delegates was plain indication tha
they we're determined to have the excellent
ticket they placed in nomination, Triumph
antly elected. They returned to their homes
with that determination, and the ed Tues
day of October will tell that they have not
labored in vain.
So far as resolutions were concerned,
they knew of but one that was necessary to
pass, and that was, they were determine
to elect their entire ticket; and that one they
passed unanimously by STANDING vote.
II done US good to meet with such no.
bic band of Democrats, as those men thai
composed that convention Men who have
never faItered, but who have always beer
and are still willing to fight for the sue
cess of our glorious cause. With the De
mocracy of Harrison county, we are deter
mined that our county shall be redeemed
that she shall be taken from the hands of l
set of men whose only principle is Office
This county needs regenerating, and w
know that its democracy are determined thu
it shall be done. Let the watchword thel
along the whole line be THAT HARRISON
COUNTY MUST AND SHALL BE RE
/ DEEMED, and it will be done. Let u
work together harmoniously and unitedl,
fellow democrats, and victory will crown ou
efforts. Every democrat in the county j
fully able to put to fighta dozen fusion
lists, and they will do it, Together then lie
us work increasingly until the clock shal
strike six on the evening of tho second Tues
! day Of October.

While we desire to reciprocate the sentim, mt
as to Judge SWANS legal abilities, we shall
abate not jot beyond reciprocity:

have been close attendant during the ses,

journalist, to make n few remarks upon what
we have heard and seen.
as. +. Norris, the presiding Judge. is a
jurist of considerable ability. and dispatches
business with much promptness, evincing
decisiveness of character and legal acumt n.
Whilst the bar of Batsvia, composed of
about forty members, as body, both for in.

at any other in the State"

BY SHELLEY.


The wind has sw ept from the wide atmosphere
Each vapor that obscured the sunsets ray;
And paiiid evening twines It's beaming hair
In duskier braids around the tanguid eyes Oh Gay
Silence and twilight, unbeloved of men,
Creep hand In hand from yon obscurest glen.
They breathe their spels towards the departing day
Eacpmpassing the earth, air, stars, ana sea;
Light sound and motion own the potent sway,
Responding TO the charm with its own mystery.
The winds are still, the dry church tower grass
Knows not their gentle motions a they pass.
Thou too, erial Pile whose pinnacles
Point from one shrine like pyramids of fire,
Obeyea in silence their sweet solemn spells,
Clothing IN hues Of heaven thy dim and distant
spire,
Around whose Iessening and invisible height
Gather among the stars the clouds of night.
The dead are sleeping In their sepulchres
And, mouldering as they sleep, q Thrilling sound,
Half sense, half thought among the darkness strs,
Breathed from their wormy beds all living things
And ninriine with the still night and mute sky
It's awful hush b felt inaudibly.
Thus soiemnixed and softened, death is mild
And terroriess as this serenest night:
Here could hope, like some inquiring child
Sporting on graves, that death did hide from hu-
man sight
Sweet secrets, or beside its breathless sleep
The loveiest dreams perpetual watch did keep.
