For somc weeks past we have occasionally
hard Of the circumstance, thAta dsfunet Ger
man Abolition paper in this city, had been re-
snsciated by the aid Of government advertia-
ing, furnished to it by Col Forney, on condi-
ton that 1t should oppose Known Nothing
ism"--that said paper received the advertise
msnts profferod to II, and had " extras" struck
or at the Washington Union Office, where the
Same advertisements had been published
said German paper distributed these extras
printed at the Union Office, to its fifty or one
hundred subscribers, and preached anti.Know-
nottingham and abolihonism for two or three
days and again died
We could not credit the assertion, that even
Col. Fornsy would spend the public money 10
paying presses with no circulation, for publish
ing Advertisements which the people would
never SEE, and that be would do this, reckless
Of the public interest, to subserve mere party

we nbstainsd from all allusion to the rumors
ON the subject and not until we could obtain
proof of the facts would we consent to state them
In our columns We n0o haps that proof and
wsars prepared to sustain the statement made SO
often to us, the import ofwhich we have given
above
We shall give the points in the language of
the witness, whose letter Is now before us.
In 90 doing, we further say, that the witness
Is gentleman well known In this city, and has
long boon resident here, and his character for
truth and verseity win not be questioned by
any man who knows him. The paper referred
TO is, "Der National Dsmokrdt" The wit
ness says:
Afer the Demokrat had died, the editor told
me he had bcrgaiasd with Mr.. Florence, Mr. For
ney, and the President TO revive his paper on the
following conditions:
He was TO write against the know-Nothings;
and after discussion, Il decided, that he might
continue kis antt-slapery sentiments. The party,
or Forney, was TO give him advertisements enough
70 sustain the paper until Congress met, and then
money would be raised 10 continue his paper; and
he was to be employed in translating documents
into foreign languages, 70 be stereotyped for the
next Presidential campaign
This IL what the editor told me. Now, all that
! know about the bargain IL this J: saw letter.
dated ut Philadelphia, from Mr. Florence to the
editor Of the Demokrat, saying that he had not
been able to see Forney, although he was then In
Philadelphia, to get order for the advertise

leaving the balance profit saw Fornsy's check
for some $3.50, less eas, the order the editor had
given for his printing. These figures we're In pen

"schmidt told Jones (your clerk that he had
got $500, and saw the Marshal hand another
ORA payable 10 r. Schmidt, and had Il passed 70

House Of Representatives is but tho agent oil

placed In his hands for such purposesf But
We are led to some other reflections by those
Developments, 1t was part OF the contract
that Schmidt should be employed u, tronsla-
sting documents TO Be stersotgped for the mart
Presidential campaign"
Then tho sucosssion Is fxed and determined
byMessrs Florence, Forncy and Pierce,--ths
