As such, he managed the Fillmore State
Convention last year, and headed the
Fillmore State Ticket. As such, he did
all he could to give Indiana and the Pres
itlency TO Mr.. Buchanan.
A current scandal aflirms that this was
in pursuance of bargain with certain
leaders of the Slavery Democracy
stipulating that, in case of his success in
his undertaking, his claim should be al
lowed. and paid at the Treasury. We
know no facts that sustain this charge
indeed, we should be very unlikely to
know them if they existed. 1t is what
the senior Mr.. Weller would call a re-
markable coincidence, however. that one
of the very first acts of the new lords oI
the Treasury was the allowance and pay
ment of Mr.. Thompson's claim.

CnINA.-Our latest news from China is
to February 7th. The Chineserumors at
Hong Kong were to the effect that Can
ton was still burning. The city was near
ly destroyed, seven thousand houses have
already been burnt up. Much English
and considerable American property has
been destroyed at Whampoa. Admiral
Seymour, although he had dropped down
from his position off Canton, was making
every effort to keep the river clear, and in
tended recommending hostiliies as soon
as the expected reinforcement should ar
rive. The Americans had taken no fur
ther part in the hostility, the fleet lying
quiet.
Yeh, Governor OF Canton, says, in a
proclamation to the people, that the Eng
lish must be exterminatcd, as warning
to others.

Support your County Papers.

In every county in Ohio there are at
least two newspapers published, generally
one of each political party. AS a gene
raj thing they are poorly supported. The
editor has to be printer, clerk and press
man. He can i'll afford to devote much
of his time to the editing of the paper.
He depends more upon ''the jobs" which
are brought to his Office for support, than
from the income derived directly from his
paper. If the Republicans and Demo
Gratis in each Of the counties would each
subscribe and pay in advance for their
county. papers, they would do a good
work to themselves, their families, their
parties, and to the printer, 1t is the local
press of the several counties which, after
all, has the most influence upon the coun-
| ty elections, and it is a shame that they
are not more generously supported.
AS is, TIE profits of the profession are
confined chiefly to large cities like New
York, Cincinnati, &c. The Tribune week
| ly has very extensive circulation in
Ohio, and yet it seldom contains as much
| information of real use to the subscribers
as the we'll conducted county papers.
The city papers print large editions
They derive a large revenue from their
immense advertising patronage. They
are thus enabled to have large corps of
editors to take charge of the various de-
partments of the paper. There are up
wards of forty persons engaged in editing
the Daily Tribune, exclusive of their for
eign correspondents. We presume that
there are not less than ten or dozen per-
sons engaged in the same way upon the
Gazette and Commercial Of Cincinnati. In
this way they are able to make a much
better paper than the country editor can
possibly expect to make, who not only
/ has to make his own selections, write his
own editorials, but set up, and print off,
and mail his own papers. If the country
papers were supported with sufficient lib
erality. as they ought to be. to permit the
editor to devote his whole time to the edi-
torial department, the people of the coun-
ty would be great gamers by it. As az
fairs now stand, we can only hope that an
effort will be made in each county in the
State to increase the subscription lists Of
the local papers, including those of oul
own county.

Galphinism of the New Administration

Galphinism of the New Administration.
Some of the leading men of the Demo
cratic party have a strong suspicion that
the Buchanan Administration is guilty of
Galphinism. Mr.. Manypenny, of this
State, Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
resigned his Office because of the allow
ance of the claim of R. w. Thompson,
and Mr.. George R. Herrick, Democratic
clerk to the Finance committee of the u.
S. Senate, who is endorsed by Senator
Gwin, lately published in the New York
Herald some facts in relation to this mat
ter, for which he was assaulted by rel
alive of P. Clayton, Assistant Secretary
oftke Treasury under Mr.. Cobb. These
are no secrets, but matters of public noto-
riety. The Tribune complies the sub
joined facts in regard to this matter which

When they were to receive liberal sum
from the Federal Treasury in payment
for lands. Mr.. Thompson sent in his little
bill but the Indians disputed or repudi-
ated it, and took the full sum due them,
distributing it among themselves and Civ

lor. Mr.. 7. then preferred his claim at
the Treasury. on what grounds We do
not remember and cannot imagine. His
claim was rejected. He tried Congress,
with equal i'll success at first, but finally
obtained the passage of an act which au
thorIzed the accounting officers to pay
him any sum that they should find Justly
due him. Those officers promptly re-
ported that no sum was due him-Mr.

The people of Upper Sandusky intend
to have the name of their town changed
TO .'Manoncue," which was the name of a
celebrated Wyandot chief. This village
has "grown and done welP'. since we first
saw it in l84l; the cattle paths have given
place to streets and alleys; the log 'tav-
ern' has vanished, and in its place looms
up :" the hotel;" the whoop of the red
man has died away, and the sound of the
churcb-going bell rings out clearly in its
stead; and "hoops" of another sort are
now, like bedient children, ''seen end
not heard" While we think of it, what

EgAs the "nigger" driving press all
over the State are abusing the late Legis-
Iature, accusing it of consuming an unu-
sual length of time, &C.. it may be well to
remind them of the facts as they appear
on the record. We accordingly extract
the following from the Xenia 7orchl;gM.
1t might be well for them to remem-
Der that the Locofoco Legislature of 1852,
commenced its session on the fifth day OF
January Of that year. and closed on the
Sd day of May following. making session
Of four months, lacking two days! That
this sal-e Locofoco Legislature commenc-
ed its extra session of that year, on the
18th day Of November, and closed on the
18th day of March following, being ses-
sion OF four months, lacking one day,
That the next and last Locofoco Legisla-
ture, being that of 1854, commenced its
session January I'd and closed May 1st,
making another session of four months
lacking day-while this outlandlsh Re
1oa5licun Legislature commenced its first
session Jan. 7, 1856. and continued to
April ,ith, a period of only three months
and four days, and commenced its extra
session January 9Th, 1857, and continued
Co April 18th, period of only three
months and thirteen days, or less than
three months and a half. Thus showing
the two sessions Of this Republican Legis-
lature to be the shortest of any held in the
State, by any Legislature since the year
i848, or for the last nine or ten years.
The session of 1850-51 continued from
Dec. I'd to March 99th, just four months
lacking seven days. That Of i548, from
Dec. Sd TO March 25th, just four months,
lacking nine days. That of 1849, from
Dec. 4th, TO March 26th, nearly four
months.
