The Columbus Statesman.

We were informed last evening, upon
good authority, that o change has been
made in the proprietorship of the Colum-
bus Statesman. Colouel Medary has sold
that journal to George W. Manypenny,
late Commissioner of Indian Affairs at
Washington. Mr.. Manypenny is well
known to the people of Ohio as sterling
Democrat and as man of ability, and
will, doubtless, conduct the Statesman in
such q manner as to make it FIRST class
paper, and an efficient organ of the party
in the State. He was formerly connected
with the press, and will be no novice in his
new position. Enquirer.

--LATEST FROM KANsAs.-WALKER AND
His PEACE Policy SUsTAINED.-Mr. San
ders, the invincible George. called ON us
yesterday on his return from Kansas
whether he had been induced to 60 to aid
Walker in carrying out his peace policy
for that distracted Territory. He says
the programme of peace has been agreed
upon by the contending factions there,
and Walkers policy is almost unanimous
ly sustained. AS an evidence of this he
cites the late Territorial Pro- Slavery Con-
vention assembled at Lecompton at which
Walkers proposition to submit the Con-
stitution to q vote of the whole people
was adopted forty to one and Ex-Governor
Ransom, of Michigan, Free State man,
was nominated Delegate to Congress
by nearly as large vote. The Constitu.
tion when submitted is to say nothing
about slavery, but it will contain clause
allowing the people to say "when slavery
shall cease" the same as was done in the
United States Constitution in regard tt
the slave trade. Mr.. Sanders says he me-

A Great scoundrel.

An Infamous swindler and thief by the
name of GEORGE A. CROFUT, sent us
q large advertisement last February, which
he requested us to insert, and send bill,
which he assured us should be promptly
paid. We performed the work, and al
though we have sent our bill several times,
he has refused to answer our letters. We
notice that he has swindled nearly every
paper in the State, and we are glad to hear
that steps are being taken to bring him
tojustice. Our contemporaries should have
nothing to do with newspaper agents.
They are, with but very few exceptions,
unmitigated rascals. Hereafter, no ad-
vertisement from abroad will be inserted
unless accompanied with the cash; and we
hope every paper in the State will adopt
the same rule. Craaefordsvils Review.
We, too, advertised for Crofut the same
advertisement, an6 most heartily subscribe
to all the Review says of the swindler.--
With one or two exceptions we also en-
dorse his views of newspaper agents.
They are. generally, scamps and loafers
who are to lazy to work, and ilch preca.
rious living from newspaper publishers.

Wheat In Europe.

The London Star of the l 9th ult, has
some interesting speculations on the SUBJ
ject of the price of Wheat in Europe,
saying:
The weather is magnificent. The crops
of wheat and other grain are reported to
be all that can be desired, not only in the
British isles, but over the whole of Eu-
rope. Yet wheat rises in value OF all the
principal English markets, and, with every
prospect of an almost universally abun-
dant harvest, prices range from sixty to
seventy shillings per quarter.
The fact is that Europe, notwithstand-
ing the immense supplies she has drawn
from America. which have been, since last
harvest, in the proportion Of seven to
four, compared with the same period in
the previous year, is almost exhausted Of
stock. America herself has little now to
spare for the marts of Europe. The very
moderate shipments that are making in
the southern ports Of Russia are inter-
|cepted at Marseilles. Spain and Portu-
gal and elsewhere, which usually have corn
to spare for US, are their competitors in
the American and European markets; and
at the Russian and Prussian ports in the
Baltic, whence only there is any chance ol
our deriving supplies for the next two OF
three months, the value of wheat is toe
high to leave q margin sufficient to in
duce the importer to risk the fall which,
as we have said, appears to be inevitable
when the crops, now approaching to ma
turity, are secured.
Thus. with the most cheering prospects
for the future, we shall probably see pres.
ent prices maintained, and possibly forced
even higher, not by the suicidal cupidity
of holders, but by the actual scarcity o.
wheat all over tho world. The circum.
stances would be sufficiently alarming did
we not know that. within six weeks harves,
| in this coantry mill have commenced, while
in Spain, Portugal and the South o.
France the reapers Will be busy at wori
within three weeks from the present time
Impossible as it is, with such an exhaus.
tioa of stocks as we have shown to exist
that wheat can be as cheap as we have
sometimes seen it, there is every reason te
expect that it will fall to fifty-five or ever
Fifty shillings per quarter in the course o
the autumn.

Giving Aid and Comfort to the Enemy


There are few Democrats who have
not yet become rcconcilcd to the result
of the late convention. It may afford
some relief to their psat UP feelings to be
complaining and threatening, but certain
Fy prudence would dictate different
course. If It has happened that the
man Of their choice was not nominated, in
every instance, let them bear it with the
manhood Of Democrats.
These complaints and threats have ere,
atsd general rejoicing among the Free
inonters Whenever new item of in
teliigence of this kind reaches them it is
immediately circulated, and general
cacklingis the consequences. They insid-
iously fosterthe discord, and laugh in their
sleeves at the use they can make of the
disseminated In the hope of q division
among the Democrats, letters have been
written from here to other parts of the
county to unite the two factions of the op-
position in . fusion. They tamper. too,
with unsuccessful candidates in order to
get them to bolt. So far as we know all
sheif efforts in this way have been failures.
They viii find but few Democrats who are
willing to be made tools for them.

The above is the winding up of column from

course Of abstractlonisrn, nothing ever comes of
it Suppose it should issue its bulls and de-
crees three times day, surely 1t does not expect
that the people Of Virginia viii act upon them.
Why didn't the Enquirer tell US who the per-
sons were that were going to keep emigrants
away from Virginia. 1t surely will not be the
proprietors of the worn out lands, in Eastern
Virginia, who are so much in need of the CAPT.

it certainly is not the miner or the iron and salt
manufacturers of Western Virginia Who then
are these persons that are going to do such
terrible things! We suppose it must be the
