GEN. WALKERS PLANS.

The St Louis News processes to give
some inkling, "on good authority" of what
Gen. Walker is doing and expects to do.
That journal says:
Gen. Walker can secure five. thousand
men and quarter of million of dollars,
besides cannon, shells, shot, ammunition
and supplies to any needed amount, with
in 80 days notice. The money (250, 000)
is ready and subject to his draft at any
moment. Walker does not desire more
than one thousand men, as he is satisfied
that with that number of men he can con-
quer and keep possession of Nicaragua in
spite of all the Central Americans that
can be brought into the field against him.
He is operating quietly at present. and
keeps his own counsel; but the departure
of another expedition from New Orleans
some time during the coming fall, well ap-
pointed, and with Walker at its head, is an
event that may be seriously expected.

z odious laws" which formed their excuse
on former occasions have been repealed
the Governor of the T,rritory has con-
ducted the administration in such way
as to avoid ccnsure from the most captious
of the Republican papers; indeed no com
plaint has been made against him from

The Territory are in favor of making it a

cumstances the Jim Lane faction, COM
posed of disorderly and lawless men, is
constantly endeavoring to keep the Ter.

INFIRMARY DIRECTOR.
Z JOSHUA AMOS.
AN INDEPENDENT TREASURY.
CORONER.
SAMUEL ". NoLL.

AIN LIN LEI Elm D3S i IhEAo " n 4.
There has been general expression of
opinion among the Democratic journals
throughout the State on the subject of
adopting an independent treasury system
for Ohio. So faryas we know it has met
with no opposition; but it will hardly get
through the campaign without waking up
some enemies among the banks and their
friends. The old Whig party fought with
desperation against its adoption by the
general government, and it is not probable
that. their new name has changed their
views
This system proposes to keepthe money
of the State in the State Treasury, and
not permit them under any circumstances
to be deposited with or loaned to banks.
The amount lost to the people of the State
by such deposits is an argument per-
fectiy conclusive in favor of this system
In this county it is not probable that even
the used-to-be-Whig Republicans vii! ven
ture to oppose it; in some of the wealthiel
counties where banks are numerous they
may. It works admirably in the U. S.
Government, and there is no reason why il
should not operate equally as well here.

Senatorial Convention.

"A friend-Gen E Cisne, writing to us
from Antioch on the subject of Senate
rial Convention says: L.
II go in for not holding a Senatorial
Convention. There is no use of it. 1t
will be spending time and money uselessly.
A long time ago was one that assisted
in bringing about the good understanding
that has since existed between the Demo-
Gratis of Guernsey and Monroe counties.
That understanding should not now be
interrupted Guernsey had the last Sen
ator, and we elected him for them. We
offer candidate now and / cannot believe
that they will not continue to respect ou1
good old successful rule. Therefore ask
what is the use of holding a convention
to do that which is already done
Monroe will offer no other name among
her simon pure Democrats-at least
think so now. Therefore if the officers O
the Central Committees ofthe two counties
take the pains to correspond a little it viii
save much unnecessary trouble. The res
of the business will be attended to on the
second Tuesday of October"
We are exactly of our friend Cisne'!
opinion, and believe that correspondence
has been commenced which will Obviat,
the necessity of q convention.

The Vote for Represontat,ve.

That excellent paper, the Noble county
Democrat, in noticing The Democratic
nominees in this county, and remarkine
on the convention has fallen into an error
If we understand friend Baker correct
ly, he states in substance that Mr.. Var
Meter had more votes according to the
poll books than DR.. Stout, but that por
ton of them being illegal DR.. Stout was
declared the nominee.
This is a mistake. Counting every
vote as shown by the poll books, DR.
Stout was three votes ahead. Itwas there
fore. unnecessary for the committee to sa,
whether any of the poll books were incor
rect or not.

Another Rebellion IN Kansas.

There is faction of the Abolitionists
in Kansas who seem determined that peace
and quietness shall not be restored in the
Territory no matter what may be the con-
sequences. No administration however
just and fair can suit the notions of this
mob; they are determined that riot aud
disorder shall prevail. If they were in
Heaven itself it is doubtful whether they
would be satisfied with the government
1t appears that the inhabitants of Law
renee, which is the hot-bed of rebellion in
the Territory, took it into their heads to
have another fight. The plan they fell
on was to get up q city charter in direct
conflict with the Territorial government
OF course they did not apply to the Ter
.ritorial Legislature for their charter as
any peaceably disposed people would have
done; but to the sham State government
which they profess to have organized un-
der the Topeka Constitution. Their sham
government refused the charter. Here
was an unlocked for difficulty in their way,
but have a row they would. So they col
lected together and got up a charter with
out authority from any legislative body
either genuine CIR sham Their officers,
instead of being sworn to support the Con-
stitution OF the United States and the act
organizing the Territory were sworn to
support the Topeka Constitution which
they had just violated in making their own
charter.
This charter is in conflict with the Ter
.ritorial government, and while this faction
seems determined to sustain the one, Coy.

One certificate of the founded debt Of

And another indictment for the embez-
element of one hundred Thousand dollars
of the public money of the State.
This morning the Court met at 81
o'clock.-Mr Gibson's Attorney said
that he was not really guilty of embezzle-
ment, and that the charge was technical
one. In regard to the Bonds they said
that they had been returned to the State,
which fact was admitted by the Prosecu-
ting Attorney, and that in his case the
amount of bail should be fixed only at
such sum as would secure his attendance
to answer the charge. The Court fixed
the amount of bail on Indictment for en-
bezzlement of the bonds at $4,000, and
ON the other Indictment at 100000, the
amount allegedto have been emhezzled
MIR. Gibson gave as his sureties on the
bonds, Robert g. Pennington, Abel Raw.
sun, and John D. Loomis, each one o.
whom swore in open Court that he was
worth at least $4,000. They acknow
lodged themselves as bail for his appear

tax payers, that part of the Bresiin defal-
cation was caused by the deposit of $50, 600
of State funds in the City Bank of Cincin-
natl, which, in short time, shut its doors
and failed, leaving the people to foot its
bills. 1t becomes matter of no little
moment to inquire how this bank came to
be selected, when there were others whose
reputation for solvency and strength stood
so much better. The Newark Adcocdte
charges that Governor Chase addressed a
letter to Breslin, recommending him to
make the City Bank depository, and
that the secret of the recommendation was
because the cashier of the concern was a
political chum of Chase-a rank Aboli-
zionist If this charge is sustained it will
place the Coy. in avery delicate position
making him partly responsible for the loss
Of near 100000 of the State funds. Al
any rate, the City Bank was managed by
Black Republicans, and they had the be
neft of the money that was deposited
therein.
