Governor Chase's Pilgrimage to
Illinois.

Every Ohioan, whatever may be
his political predictions, must feel
deeply mortified and chagrined at the
Governor ofthis great State, so far
forgetting the dignity and proprieties
of his station as to neglect its duties
and become an itinerant political
speaker in another State, in a more To-
cal contest, IN which it does not be-
come Ohio officials to intermeddle.--
No other Governor ola State ever set
such a precedent before, and we
do not believe it will ever be followed
in future. 1t is an outrage upon de-
cency, and an insult to his constituen.
cy for Governor Chase thus to belittle
and lower the character of his great
office as to run to Illinois and take
part in its politics. The Republican
papers of Chicago, by omitting to re-
port him at any length, seem to be
conscious Of the indelicacy of his posi-.
tion, and to be satisfied thai it was
better for him to be at home attending q
to his legitimate duties. Gin. Eng.

Gems from John Van Buren.

John Van Buren, who has recent.
y returned from Europe, addressed a
Democratic meeting in Tammany
Hall the other night. His speech is
characterized by the humor, wit and
refined sarcasm which so eminently
distinguishes all the efforts of this
gentleman. We copy one or two Of
his capital hits. In alludlng to the
troubles and outrages in Kansas, now
so efectually ended, John thus noticed
the murder Of Jenkins by the notori,
GUS General Lane. He said:
"The last murder had been commit
ted, and that by Republican leader,
of a Free-State man who came to a
Free-State we'll for a Free State drink

lie made an excellent allusion to
the Republican support of the rene
gade Democrat, John B. Haskin, in
the Congressional District, rendered
memorable by the discovery Of the
treason of Arnold and the capture of
the British spy, Andre:
"Seward was working his points,
hoping by multiplying the Democrat
ic candidates for the Presidency that
the question would bo thrown into
the Congress in 1860. Seward was
laying his plans to get Seward mem.
bers Of the House. They had chased
down a Democrat in the Ninth Con-
gressional District and had made him
a candidate at Tarrytown. In Revo
lutionary times a great treason had
been discovered at Tarrytown, and if
they would catch John B. Haskin
and search him they would find pass
from Seward in the heel of his boot.
Laughter. !"
Here is a laughter provoking shot
at the dickering and bargaining coal,
ition between the Americans" and
the Republicans for the spoils. Mr..
Van Buren remarks:
"These two parties-the American
and the Seward parties--have been
occupied throughout the whole sum.

That Picnic StOTy---SmaII Beer
Politicians.

On the first page of this paper will
be found a communication from E.
F. Bingham, Esq, relative to an elec,
tioneering story which a few small
beer politicians of this county ped
died over a portion of this Judicial
District, just previous to the election,
and which originated from a little diff.
! fculty that occurred between a few
ladies at a picnic party on the 4th Of
July last. Mr.. B. has related the
circumstances correctly so far as we
are personally acquainted with them,
and we distinctly recollect his advice
to the ladies, that the company had
better all eat together. There was
considerable talk about the matter at
the time, caused by the supposed in.
tention of those who sent the celebra-
ted labeled basket, to Insult the bal.
anco of the company. Communica,
tons were proffered us, some of which
blamed the ladies, and Others both the
ladies aud Mr.. j. W. McBeth, who
had accompanied the lady that called
for the basket. Satisfied, from what
we knew of the affair, that neither
Mr.. Bingham, Mr.. McBeth, nor any
other gentleman was to blame, and
not wishing to have our paper take
part in women's quarrels, we declined
to publish anything upon the subject.
Tie reader may imagine our aston.
ishment, therefore, when we observed
in Mr.. McBeth's paper, just previous
to the election, an editorial paragraph
reading, in part, something like this:
"If the candidate for the Judgeship
desires 10 keep up the codfsh distino-
ton, he can preparea a separate table,"
We thought then that, considering
the part Mr.. McBeth took in that
separate table" affair, this fling at
Mr.. Bingham by him, was as shame
less piece of work as we ever heard
Of, but we had no idea that McBeih's
political friends had circulated 30 foul
a lie in regard to the matter, as tho
one Mr.. Bingham exposes.
This circumstance shows the utter
recklessneSs of the the opposition in
this county. Men who pretend to be
good Christians, and who carried the
big, thirteen-hundred page Kansas
Report over the county in 1856, are
found, in 1858, peddling out dirty lit
tie falsehoods of their own invention,
and "chronicling" the "small beer" of
gossiping women. For such political
grannies we can find no word in the
English Ian nguage sufficiently expires

Superiority OF American Rail-
road Iron,

The chief engineer of the Reading
Railroad declares that investigation
shows that or tue 60 pound English
rail the wear is from 81 to AZ per cent.
while that on the American is only
II to II per cent. The breakage on
the English bar was one in 40 to one
in 50, while on tie American it was
one in 127 to one in 343. This utter
worthlessness of English iron, he
thinks, accounts for many ofthe fright,
full accidents which occur OH Ameri-
can roads.
And yet the policy of the so called
Democratic party has always been to
force our railroad companies to 60
to Europe for their iron, not only at
the sacrifice Of one Of the most i'm
portant industrial interests of the
country, but, as is shown above, at the
sacrifice Of human lifel How long
will the American people keep it in
Exchange.
Fudge! The policy Of the Demo
cratic party has been to let railroad
companies and everybody else buy
just where their interests or inclina-
ton led them. 1t is this forcing sys-
tenn to which the Democracy have al.
ways been opposed. 1t is well known
that the price Of railroad iron and its
quality are not the most important
considerations with railroad compa
nies in constructing their works. They
want to sell their bonds, payable il
, ten, twenty and thirty years, for iron
| and il they cannot soil them that way
: in this country they are apt to try t
do so in Europe. Railroad compan
les want longer time IN which to pa,
for iron than American manufacturer
5 can generally give them, and from th'
peculiar manner of building railroad
in this country, this has been one O
the most important considerations.
Wesuppose, however, that the abov
was intended as a fling at the Demo
cratic party because a higher tarit
was not put on railroad iron. Low a
this tariff has been, it has proved to
much for many railroads, retardin
their construction and embarrassing
the companies as much as anythin
else. Indeed, numerous petitions hav
been presented to Congress for the re
mission of duties on railroad iron
and the Republican Senate of Ohio
in 1855, recommended that law b
passed refunding such duties to com
panies which had paid them sine
1853.

THE REPUBLICANS AND CUBA.-The
New York Times, a leading Republi-
can paper, states that it is doubtful
whether a single member of Congress
will vote on the CuOan question in
the manner desired by Mr.. Giddings,
in his late letter, and adds that, "when
we acquire Cuba, it will be with the
general and distinct understanding
that she shall come in as a slave State.
1t says very justly:
"There are many reasons, political
and commercial, why it is desirable
that we should acquire Cuba; and
when time and opportunity serve, we
shall accept her, slavery and all. II

John Van Buren, and the "IsIknt
Search"

In his last speech at Tamany Hall,
John Van Buren thus referred 10 the
quietus given this old pretensiou of the
British Government by the finn posi-.
ton taken by President Buchanan on
the subject. He said:
"The right to search our vessels-to
visit and examine them-had been
asserted by Great Britain, and was one
OF the main caIses of the War of1812.
1t was again asserted, when it was
alleged that our fleet was shelter of
the Infamous slave traffic, and under
circumstances calculated to enlist the
feeling of the whole country, where
the opposition throughout the South

Britain, and the very end Of the law

prodigy Of physical and intellectual
vigor, proclaimed that the American
doctrine was true-that James Buch-

that no power on earth could interfere
with that right. Loud applause. =
