HON. John CAREY.

With much pride and satisfaction do we
place before our readers, and the Republi-
cans of the Ninth District, the name Of
the Hon. JOHN CAREY, as our candidate for
Congress. Judge CAREY is Virgiuian by
birth, but for upwards Of fifty years has
been resident of Ohio. For quarter Of
a century he has been resident of Wyan-
dot county, and with nine-tonths Of the old
Inhabitants he is personally acquainted
His time has been principally devoted to
farming and milling, and he has established
so envisble reputation for capacity, homes
ty, and intelligence, that not a political op-
ponent can with truth, say augbt against
him. Therefore we say to you that
JOHN CAsEY, "if elected to Congress, will
oppose the extension Of slavery upon free
soil-wil resist the squanderiug of the pub
lie funds-and he will support with eficien-
cy, energy and zoal the doctrines of tho
great Republican party. Though opposed
TO the extension of slavery and firm be-
lever in the doctrine that it is curse to
the States in which it is now fostered, he
will do nothing to interfere with the rights
of tho people of those States. Amongst
their rights, however, he does not recognize
the privilege Of transferring slaves on to free
soil and, subjecting ii to the baneful influ-
snccs of that institution for an indefinite
time. He will regard slavery as creature
of law, and wholly unauthorized when moi
permitted by direct and positive provision
In short, he win be true to tho advocacy o.
that policy which claims that Freedom j:

pursued by Lawrence w. Hall in tho las

il. is not worth whio TO count il oil up.--
The people Of Kansas have rejected the

offered them, If ever tny question was
settled, il is now decided that Kansas is to
be free state. What do our readers sup
poso tho administration party say 10 the
defeat Of Lecomptop. Why they say that
the people Of Kansas have decided not to
come into the Union, till they have 93,34o
inhabitants. Tho Messenger will doubtless
claim il as democratic victory. After the
administration had exhausted every scheme
of management and bribery TO get the La
compton English scheme through congress,
and when tbo whole thing is stamped into
tho ground by the people Of Kansas, it is
forsooth only saying that they will not come
INTO the Union, and the administration af-
Ter all is not so badly beaten. Let these
men wait littlo till tho people Of Kansas
ask, as thsy will, for admission into the

A SUccEss.-O of our Democratic ex-
changes in the course Of a clarifying article,
says:
"Tho Democratic party never fails
Whatever it undertakes to do, it always ac-
complishes."
This is true in somc particulars, at least.
Thoy found an ovOrflowing treasury at
Washington, and determined to deplets it.
Their success was wonderful, and is strik-
ing illstration of what unsuimity of purpose
and perseverance will accomplish. They
left not dollar. They charged upon tho
treasury in one solid phalanx, and cleaned
il out in the twinkling of an eye. The
unanimity Of the President, his Cabinet, and
the Locofoco members of Congress, in this
matter, was refreshing. BucyruS Journal.

The pn,-ln.nnr Celebra,lon.


We commend tho following from the
Sandusky Register 10. tho. attention Of all
about tho Lake Shore and the towns and
cities contiguous. Tho note Of preparation
begins to sound, and there is no timo TO be
lost in making arrangements for duly hon
oring tho day to be remembered W
"Aslong as the globe on its axis rolls round"
we hare met the enemy and they are ours"
From the spontaneous aud favorable re-
sponses Of nll the leading journals Of the
Lake cities on the subject Of holding
Union celebration at Putin.Bay Island, on
the approaching anniversary Of the battle
Of Lake Erie, tho 10th day of September
next) to do honor to the memory Of the IL
Iustrious dead, therefore, the Executive
Committee of the Perry Monumental As
sociation," instituted on the 4th day of Ju-
", 1862, have deemed it proper occasion
TO invite all patriotic citizens TO cooperate
with them in adopting the best measures to
secure tho necessary funds, obtain designs,
and insure the construction and early com
pletion of tho structure.
Tho site selected for tho monument was
on "Gibralar Rock" an isolated and com
manding islet, whore Perry's lookout was
stationed, and directly in view of the battle
scene. Suitable materials for building can
bo procured upon the ground, thus render
ing its accomplishment feasible with but iri-
fling expense. ,.,,~ sz y-1.t.sq
Then let Buffalo, Erio, Cleveland, San
dusky, Toledo, Detroit, and all other inter
voning places, with the adjacent country,
come together upon this spot, conaecrated to
our common glory by tho heroic achiovs-
ments of our countrymon, and unto in erec-
ting over the long neglected dust of the
"buried brave monument worthy of their
deeds and their death.
The interest Of the occasion will be much
enhanced by the presence Of the only two
surviving officers Of tho battle, Capt,
Champlin, Of Buffalo, and DR.. Usher Par
sons Of Providence, r. l.
The Committee would earnestly recon-
mend that each Of the above named places
would correspond with them, and assist in
the selection of suitable speakers, the ap-
pontments of timo, the order to be observed
on arrival DC.
Artillery will bo on the ground to giyo
the necessary salutes.
The officers of the steamer Bay City,
with the generosity proverbial of our "gal-
liant soamen," have placed the services Of
their boat and proceeds Of the Trip to the
Monumental fund.
A statement of the present condition and
resources of the Monumental Association
will be made on the occasion and lis hoped
that by the corporation of other cities, ar.
rangcments may be made for the laying o.
the corner stone Of the monument.

Pay Your Taxes In Gold and Silver.
We are informed by the Messenger that
our county treasurer will receive gold and sill
yer for taxes if voluntarily tendored. Will
the Messenger tell us how our treasurer is
going to comply with the law requiring him
to pay out only gold and silver for all sums
les, than five dollars, il he does not demand
gold and silver Of taxpayers?
Undsr the old law the County Commis-
sopers might loan out the County funds
and thus gain somo 5000 per annum.-
Now we suppose the Commissioners will
expond about that amount in the purchase
of coin, which will be loss to the ta1-pa
ers of Sandusky County, of about 100000
Then add to tho above 100000 for an
iron safe for the treasurer to lock up the
funds in, and you have the nice little sum
of 81 10000 for putting the sub-treasury
in working order in this county, and then
the money Of the people is not one iota SAT-
er than it was undor the old law.
