UNION TICKET
ELECTED.

TIE ELECTION here passed off quietly
as usual. There were 443 votes polled,
which is 32 more than was ever polled
before. The sun shone out brilliantly
nearly the whole Of the day, which be-
tokened defeat to the Lecomptonites.-
We stayed with the enemy from early
dawn to the close Of day. and we feel
confident our efforts have been crowned
with victory. We have every indica-
ton to believe that the vote throughout
the county is large and that our major
ity will fall but little short of four hun
dred--it should be thousand il there
is justice in any cause. We advise our
friends not to bet on majorities.

ct A majority; Trimble 93S. Miller

she is redeemed. Notwithstanding the
polls were crowded all day with pure
patriots who stood up with tears in
their eyes and strichnine in their stom-
schs crying wool, wool, wool. Nash's
majority over Jackson in this township
is only l09l but don't say anything
about it.
Our Land Appraiser, Gen. Geo.

the purse without an effort.

TIE American LION IN PARIs.-The
great chess match, between Germany
and America, between N. Harrwitz. Of
Prussia, and Mr.. Paul Morphy, Ofths
United States, is now going on in this
city at the Cafe de Ia Regence, in the
Rue st. Honore, the headquarter Of
this scientific game. The match is to
be won by the gamer Of the first seven
games. Harrwita gained the first two
games, Mr.. Morphy gained the three
next, the last Of which was played
Yesterday afternoon and evening. In
the third and fourth games Mr.. Morphy
made some of the most brilliant and
startling moves that had ever been seen
in the Cafe de Ia Regence; and so great
was the enthusiasm that teleg aphic dis
patches were sent to the Rhine, to Merry,
to the Duke OF Brunswick and other
great players, begging them to come
and see the wonder of the world. Not
withstanding the watering season, when
all the fashion is supposed to be out of
town, the Cafe de la Regence is the
scene Of a crowd, or rather a mob, OF
distinguished men, and even women, OF
all nalionslities and all tongues. 1t fs
believed that Morphy will beat HarF-
wilz. though it is not by any means sure,
and, in that case, he becomes the cham
pion Of the world. for no man in Europe
can beat Harrwitz. Harrwitz is 81
years Old-MOrphy but 29. Morphy
plays much faster than Harrwitz, and
in fact faster than any adversary he has
yet met in Europe. and the boldness
and originality Of his moves strike the
lockers on with amazement and admira-
ton.
A gentleman now in Paris writes as
follows:
The greatest of living French sculp-
tors. Lequesne, the pupil and successor
of Pradier, has asked Morphy to sit to
him for his bust in marble. The bust
will be exhibited at the Exposition des
Beaux Arts. This is. think, the high
est honor Morphy has received; but 1
can assure you they treated him here
like god. He dimes with his Royal
Highness the Duke of Brunswick, on
Sunday. The other night at the thea
tire Francis half the audience stood up
and looked at him-be perfectly uncon-
scious until it was pointed out to him.
Everybody seeks introductiOns to him,
and the old players of the time of La
bourdonnais, treat him with the great
est reverence.

Another Lecompton Lie
Detected and Refuted!.--
GA True Statement Pro-
we'd to be False. A Word
to the Tax Payers Of Gal
liza County.

The Lecomptonites about the court
house. to meet the damning effects Of
our statement relative to County Print
ing, issued private circular for circu-
lation in the country, not a copy Of
which could be found in town. We
have just received one from friend in
the country. The charge that we made
is not denied, to-wit: That the county
printing during one year Of Lecompton
rule, exceeds that of the four previous
years BY over $40. They admit the
fact, but try to evade its force by claim
ing that extra printing has been done.
Allowing their claim for extra print
ing as follows:

is not included in three preVi-

Deduct this s413,4o from the
amount paid for ordinary prin-
ting in 1853, and it leaves S97, ,13
Thus by their own showing making the
ordinary printing under Lecompton rule
in one year more than the same work
cost the county the three previous years
by S97,13 The fact that the county
money has been thrown away TO sup
port Democratic paper in Gallipolis
cannot be denied, and is thus PROVED
by their own circular. The circular al
luded to states that Harper's bill for
printing the Commissioners Report sis
supposed to be s2O," and is thus car
ried into the statement. The author
tnsw that Harper's bill was on file with
the other bills in the Auditors Office
and amounts to
50 33
instead of S2O-thus not only showing
that the circular contains deliberate
lie, bat q fso that Harper only charged
the county SO 33 for the very same
work that the Dispatch charged
S21 80.
This is the way the peoples money
has been paid out for the support of that
paper, and thus it is that bill of
S7O2 76
in single year has been made for coun-
ty printing.
And now tax payers, to meet this ex-
travagance of their Court House off.
cials, the Commissioners of your coun-
ty have made levy on your property
for the present year for county revenue
purposes twenty-five per cent higher than
that Of either of the t,OO previous years.
The levy for each of the years Of Sc
and '57 was II mills-the present year
it is mills to each dollars valuation.
This extraordinary levy is to meet and
pay up the extraordinary expenses of
these Court House officials. They found
county orders at par and none in circu.
lation when they came into Office, and
there are now thousands of dollars in
the hands of the people and no money
in the Treasury-continue them in Of
flee another term and your county or
.ders will again go about the streets beg
ging purchaser at discount of 95 and
so per cent. Look to your interest

THE CHARGE or ABANDONING A SAL
LoR UPON DESERTED IsLAND.-In the
U. s. District Court at Boston on Mon.
day, was tried the case of Jeremiah
Austin, master of the ship Betsey Will
Jams, of New Bedford, charged with
having left on a deserted island John
Francis, a cOlored man. one OF his crew.
in the month Of November. 1855. The
mate Of this vessel. Mr.. Weston. has
already been convicted Of an assault
upon Francis with AN iron Delaying pin.
by which the sight of one eye was des-
trOved.
John Francis testified to the fact of
his being put ashore. Al the time that
the orders were given by the captain,
the witness was below in irons; his
irons were knocked off and he was put
on board boat, the captain insrructing
them that if they could not land Francis
without staving the boat, to throw him
overheard and LET him get ashore as best
he could. He says that as he was
leaving the vessel the captain gave him
one or two smart kicks and said that IL
he should live and any one should ask
who put him ashore, he should reply,
Captain Austin kicked me ashore"
They gave him few articles of clo-
thing and landed him alone on the
beach, after which the ship sailed away.
and he was left the only solitary in
habitant of the island. For 96 days he
lived on raw crabs and young birds
soaked in water, taking refuge in hut,
which he made of sticks, at night
Every morning he was in the habit Of
going down to the beach before sun
rise to look for ship. because his in
famed eye could not bear the reflection
of the sun upon the sand.
Finally. the ship Old Hector touched
at the island. and he was taken of and
carried to Talcahuana, where he re-
mained seven months and half in the |
hospital. There was eorroborative evi-
dence of his being put ashore, and also
some evidence for the defence which did
not deny that fact. The case viii be
argued tomorrow.
The Island in question is one Of the
Galapagos Group, and was formerly
used by the Peruvian Government as a
penal station; it was afterWard aban-
doned, but was sometimes visited BY

1--WE publish the following correspondence
to show what influence partyism has oyel
some men. Mr. Nash's letter and Judge
Morehead's answer were published last week
1t will be seen by Morehead's letter to Mr.
Nash, that he distinctly denies ever having
been called upon by Nash or any other person
to assist in a settlement between the Treasurer
and Auditor, that he knew nothing about their
settlement, and in his letter to Hebard, he
distinctly declares that he did assist in a SET
Element bet,oeen Mr.. Nash and the Auditor."-
The gentleman by these statements has placed
himself ina position befose the~PeopIe of
Gallia county that is anything but enviable.
Here are the three letters-read and Judge for
yourself:

Dear Sir:-I see by the Dispatch
this morning, that it is charged that l could
not make my settlement with the Auditor last
June, and that you were called in to do it,
Please state whether l ever called upon you to
arrange or assist in my settlement, or ever
spoke TO you in regard TO the same, or even
had anything to do with you about the settle
ment with the Auditor, when went out of
Office, in any shape or form.
Yours truly,
