Holopay's PiHs.-General debility.
low spirits, and nervous irritation, are
the inevitable consequences of indigest-
ion. Renovate the stomach, clear the
bowels and regulate the secretions with
these woodworking Pills, and the
strength returns, the depression ceases,
the nerves become calm. This is not
theory, but practical truth founded on
long years ofexperience, volumes of tes-
timony, and the concurrent admission
of all medical men who have ever wit
messed the effect of the remedy. In this
country, dyspepsia has heretofore been
so common a complaint, thatit might al
most be termed national institution"
If, however, dyspeptics, generally, are
wise enough to resort to this remedy,
the disease will soon become a rarity.

That Salmon p. Chase, Martin Walk

and Alfred P. Stone, five of the six can
didates ON the black republican State
ticket, are in favor of striking the word
"Suhite'' from the Constitution ofOhio,
thereby giving negroes equal privileges
in all respects with white people. And
that the real and secret cause of the op-
position to Jacob Blickscnderfer the
other candidate on that ticket is because
he is opposed to striking the word
'.rhitc" from the Constitution. Re-
member these facts, voters.

card in which they express their deter
mination to vote for Payne and the

election. They won't swallow the

that the old line Wings all ovcr the

THE DEATH OF SENATOR RUsK..

THE DEATH OF SENATOR RUsK.-
A gentleman just from Texas, has COM
municated to US facts bearing on the
recent melancholy death of Senator
Rusk, which throw more light on that
sad event than all else concerning it we
had previously learned. 1t seems that
he was suffering at the time m griev-
'ously from a carbuncle on the back Of
his neck, which, for sixty days, had
bafled the skill of his physician, and
bid fair, unless arrested soon, to termin-
ate in his death. He had been suffer-
ing intensely from it on the day he
committed the fatal act, and it was be-
lieved by those surrounding him that
the agonies of the disease, added to his
belief that it would deprive him of life
in less than thirty days, had much to do
in bringing about his resolution to make
with himself Washington Star.

ChaSe.S Letter Recommending
Rotten Banks for Repositories
of fEhc Sfate Funds.

NhAG4SC AClECH
Rotten Banks for DePOsitOrics
of the State Funds. q
When it was first publicly made
known that Mr.. Chase had recommen-
ded Mr.. Breslin, State Treasurer elect,
to make deposits of the public money
in the City Bauk of this city, through
which the State is loser to the amount
of one hundred thousand dollars, the
Governor denied it with great indigna-
ton. After awhile they admitted that
he might possibly have written such a
letter, though, if he did, MIR. Chase has
no recollection of it. Then they grew
bold again and denied all about it, and
demanded its production. On that de-
mand, made by Mr.. Chase himself, the
obligation of secrecy was removed, and
the letter is o published. 1t will be
found below. 1t seems that he not only
recommended the City Bank, but also
the Mechanics and Traders Bank. IT,.
7PRIvArE.l
CINCIxNArI. December 80. 1851.
"MY DEAR SIR II ~inclose Mr..
Heaton's letter, which speaks for itself.
L take it for granted that, so far as the
Treasury makes deposits in Cincinnati.
they will not be continued with the
Trust Company. The City Bank is, l
lave no doubt, a safe institution, and it
is managed by excellent and liberal
men. l speak the more impartialiy, as
[ never borrowed a dollar from them.
{" l presume that your arrangements
as to depositing here are alreadymade.
IT not, though I am bound in justice to
say what l have of the City Bank, 1
should feel still more bound to ask your
favorable notice of the Mechanics and
Traders Bank, with which l do all my
own business, but in which 1 have no
interest as stakeholder or otherwise.
Yours truly, S. p. CHASE.
The Statesman says there is a post
script to the letter, in which Chase
" most cordially cougratulatcs Breslin
on his election, assuring him that " he
did all that lay in his power to secure
it,"
The Mr.. IIeaton mentioned in the
above letter is a leading political and
personal friend of Governor Chase-thc
same gentleman who was the Cashier OF
the Bank of w. w. Cones & Co. of this
city and in the business transactions of
which we understand, Mr.. Chase was
somehow mixed up. We had forward
ed to US the other day from Mr.. Cones,
some questions to put to Mr.. Chase ia
reference to his relations to the bank
ing company of Cones & Co., but which
we have unfortunately mislaid, or we
should publish them in this connection.
We hope yet tc be able to lay our hands
on them.
The points of Chase's letter are, that
he did all that lay in his power to elect
Breslin, and that, before Brcslin enter
ed upon the discharge of the duties OF
his Office, Mr.. Chase recommended him
to deposit the States money with rotten
institutions, thus encouraging him in ID
course of conduct that proved his rain.

The above is a faithful daguerreotype of the
by that memorable Convention, and with the ex-
ceptien of two or three. it is q correct likeness
of the whole of them. We intend however, as
the fight wakes warm, to take up the rema ming
ones and discuss their qualifications in the col
umns OF our paper. In point of intellect and
ability, this is the weakest ticket that was ever
presented to the people of PrebIe County. We
have heard of things which were said t, be '.the
last of pea time > 'tthe last of the Mohiccans,"
''the last herring ''the Ia st drop in the WE'LL
the last rose of summer and 1.-THE last button
on Gabe's coat,' but all these phrases are but
feint and imperfect descriptions of poverty and
ruin compared with the last Ticket" and
some of its members. ~
In conclusion we have TO say, that there is an
Independent Ticket in the field, to which we in
vite your attention-come NJ and examine the
publications. of the candidates, i: they a-e no
better than those of some on the last ticket"
pleas, do not vote for them. Now we say to eve
ry voter IN the County, who prefers an intelli-
gent, upright, competent and honorable man for
YOUR Proba te Judge, inste I'd OF a mere 1Uooden

ton, without any thing, read the above article
carefully, inform yourself thoroughly CT the ma
ture and character of the office, and also of the
qualification aud fitness of the candidates then
go to your neighbor and advise with him upon
the subject, aud leave him not until you have
made the matter plain. 1t is YOUR DUTY TO
DO so-you owe it to your self, to the public. and
for the honor of the Judiciary of your County.

siders himself fur beneath many of the old fd-

These we assert are his quali6cations-thcse are

if these recommendations fit and qualify him to

rather be excused from having him judge in your

You all know the qualifications of Mr.. Cans. you
know know his length, and his breadth, his
hsigth and his depth, and we think we speak
advisedly, when we say that many of the duties
of Probate Judge are ashonorous and difficult, if
not more so, than Judge of the Common Pleas
Now. we ask you in all sincerity, what would
you think of walking into the Common Pleas
Court to try an important issue OF Law with this
man Cans on the Bench for Judge Would
there not be a rattling among the dry bonesH
Now if you think you could ca Imly submit TO that

Mr.. Cans. But if you think you would rather
not risk your clients cause in q mill of that
character, we say to you, reflect a little before
you vote. and be sure you are right. We need
not say TO you that a learned and upright Judi
ciary Is the strongest safeguard that is thrown
around our country. Look well then, in this
matter, to the way in which you lend ypurinauA
