enth pages Of his annual report. And on
the 18th page of the same report he states
that he Usnt into The Treasury and counted
the money AID foHna ii al there.
On the Slst day of December, Gov. Sal.
mon P. Chase in his annual message to the
Legislature, states positively that oil the
money due from Breslin had been received
by Glib son, with the exception of the amount
deposited in banks as ubovo named. (See
Governors Annual Message Public Docu.
mcnts, Vol. !, p. 4i3 and 4I4.)
Are not these proofs suflic ent! Does
our neighbor ask for further testimony
We will give it. Since the defaIcation was
made known, C. P. Wolcutt, Republican
Attorney General, has commenced suit
against William H. Gibson, charging him
of embezzling the public money, and Ofix-
ed his solemn oath to the truth of the charge.
Further than this. The Grand Jury OF
Franklin County after spending several
weeks in the investigation, have found a
criminal indictment against VIM. H. Glib
son, the Republican treasurer.
And yet in the face Of oil this sworn Of.
fetal testimony, the Democrat claims that
Gibson is innocent of any defalcation! If
Gibson is innocent, then, Alfred Kelly, Felix
Marsh, R. P. Buckland the Senate Commit
tee, R. w. Tayler end his two associates,
Auditor Wright, Governor Chase, Attorney
General Woolcutt, and the Grand Jury of
Franklin County, are all ignoramuses or Ii
ars. for they have all certified to Gibson's
guilt.
What evidence have we in favor of his
Innocence? Simply his own oath against his
former oath and the opinion of Mr.. Thomas
Sparrow. And who is Thomas Sparrow!-
A security for one Of Gibsons repositories,
in the sum of $5o,OOo, and party interest
ed in covering up the dejalcation. What
does this opinion of Sparrow amount TO,
when contradicted by the ofici al statements
of four officers of the State Government,
six members of the Gener&. &.Assembly, md
fifteen members of Grand Jury!
We leave our Republican neighbor,to the
husbandry of their own resources, If they
desire to screen Gibson from condemnation,
let them burn their own official records.

The Portage County Democrat on.
FlnHNCo.

AS matter OF fact, the trfing indebted.
ness of Portage County arose from the fact
that the Republican authorities undertook
to retrench too much at once, and fuiled al.
together to levy poor tax for 1856, relyinn
upon an accumulated fund of about 50, 200
Portage Democrat,
True as the gospel. You had promised
"retrenchment and reform" to the people.
In order to carry out your promises you
were afraid to raise as much tax as the wants
of the County actually required, and rather
than tax the people you preferred to ru,
them IN debt and compel them to pay ten per
cent interest. By and by, the people will
be called upon to pay these debts. Then,
look out for heavy burdens and high taxes
Retrenchment and reform means with
Repubiicans-runntng in debt.
Let US look at one or two samples of this
Rotrenchment policy. In the year 1856,
there was levied in Portage county, for coun.
ty purposes, $5,526,44. The cmount act.
uaIy expended wds $ll,7O6,73. Amount
expended more than levied $6,lSO,29. The
Republicans raised for Bridge purposes the
sum of $2,7G3,76. The amount actually
expended was $7,o7G.7G. Amount cxpend.
ed more than levied, S4,9l3,55. You ruia.
ed for poor purposes. nothing; you actualIs
expended $l,3l669.
Now suppose there WINS aotling in tSo
treasury at the commencement Of the wear,
you would have been in debt $l2,4ll5s,
on account of these three items alone. -
But fortunately there was about $4,000 in
the treasury at the beginning of the year,
and the Commissioners have as fact, onIv
borrowed $4,000, 60 far as heard FROM
This is retrenchment with vengeance.

Discord in the CanIn.

There is discord in the fusion camp. A
few days Ogo, Pryne and the Retormsr after
i having abused the Republicans for more than
year, came over bodily and Joined their
standard. This was not exceedingly agree
able to the parties interested. The Demo.
crGt had hoped to monopolize all the patron
age and give direction to the movements OF
its party. The Retormer also desires to con
troll the destinies of the Republican organi-
cation.
From these difficulties has grown another.
There are two factions in the Republican
household. One follows the leadership
of Abram Pryne and o. P. Brown, and the
other the leadership Of Lyman w. Hall
and E. D. TAYLOR. Brown is ambitious
for Congressional distinctions. The honors
which he now has as member of the i'm .
mortal Smelling Committee are fast fading
away, and the money which he stole from
the people. is nearly exhausted. He is q
lawyer; but on account Of an alarming indo.
lence, and wonderful incapacity, his prac-
tice has gradually dwindled down to nothing.
There are two good reasons then, in favor
of his attempting to secure Congressional
nomination. l. He has nothing to de-, and
2. He will starve unless he is elected to
office. There are also, n.nbitious men on
the other side Of the louise. Which faction
will triumph, time alone can determine
From present indications, we judge Pryne to
be In tho uscendent.

Republican EIesOIutioms--Trc;s o.,
ot'essiy PrGciaiuned.

The Republicans of Portage county have
at last, taken broad and open ground in ia.
vor of disunio1. They have made formal
declaration of war upon the Federal Gov.
ernment. One year ago, tn would have
shuddered at tho idea of interfering with the
domestic institutions Of the States. They
denied all such intention; they cIaimed 10
be the firm friends of the Union, the unal,
ier1ble adherents of the National Const,u.
ton. When the Democracy charged them
of sectionolism, and an attempt TO make war
on the domestic Institutions of the other
States, they Indignantly denied it. But the
garo is thrown Of now. They nj longer
pretend to sustain tho Federal Government,
no longer acknowledge any allegiance to the
authority Of the Constitution.
We call attention to the following resolu.
tons contained in their platform adopted at
Ravenna on tho 18th inst,
4th. Tha, it is ogains, the;piant wrong
OF slavery that we war, whether it is found
under the assumed shelter of the Constitu.
lion and laws of the General Government
or Of States and Territor les, and that we de-
not propose to take down our flag or Law off
our armor, until it has no hiding place on
the earth. y"
There is, there can be, but one interpret.
alton to the foregoing resolution. 1t mean,
nothing more nor less than that the Repub.
licans Of Portage county claim the rich, TO
regulate the domestic institutions of all the
States and Territories in the Union. and in
fact throughout the world. 1t denies the
right OF self government to every people
save those who live in Ohio. Under II, tbo
