curious DenlocracY.

The Lecompton faction Of the Domocra-
cy in Sandusky county have organized a Sc
cret society of the "dark lantern" order, for
the purpose, the Democrat says, Of monop-
olising all the Offices and giving their pat
ronage to the Messenger. OF course the
editor of the Democrat and his friends are
not counted in.
BY the way, the Messenger is now edited
by pair of brothers named Foulke, who,
eighteen months ago, were publishing a
rank Know Nothing paper in Pennsylvania.
Being kind of convertible property, that
may be put to any vulgar use, they con-
sented to become the "organ grinders" of
the Lecompton "chque" at Fremont
Frank Foulke is the same one, we suppose,
who wrote to us last Spring, desiring to
purchase an interest in tho Tribune and
citing bis Pennsylvania paper, as proof that
he was "sound on the goose" He was
formerly rabid X. N. and in 1854 had a
controversy with the Catholic priest at Ere
mont, in which he called the Catholics and
"boody furriners" all kinds of naughty
names. The Democrat is now publishing
instalments of these bloody articles of
Franks for tho purpose Of refreshing his
memory. They are indeed curiosity

Monday, April 4th is the day appointed
by law for holdingthe township and munic-
ipal elections in Ohio We have not heard
yet of any action on the part of the repub-
licans Of this town or of the county. We
know the democracy, who have deceived
the people Of this county year after year,
arc already making their selections, and
are determined to run strict party tickets in
every township. There will be no relief
from such miserable rule as we are obliged
year after year to submit to- unless tho re-
publicans take hold of the matter in earn
est and set matters right. Thore is no
propriety in saying they canrot elect their
men. The only reason that the republican
party of Sandusky county is in the minority,
is that they do not take hold of the matter
and attend to il with determination to
succeed Let us keep up our organiza-
ton at least. Make nominations and give
them hearty support unless the other par
ty are wiling tounite and run tickets irrespec-
tive of party,-which course we think is the
wisest and best 1t is our opinion and we
know the same is concurred in by many
democrats of Fremont, that meeting of
the citizens should be held and ticket for
township and corporation officers be nomi-
mated, which could be supported by all.--
We hope to see good men nominated for
these Offices. Thewell being and prosper
ity of our town demand it. Unless this is
attended to by those who are interested in
the welfare of our town, the morning of the
election will show ticket composed ofmen
who do not care straw for anything else
than their own success, and the furtherance
of the miserable legislation under which we
have lived for years

The present aspect of political affairs in
the federal government is gloomy enough.
We have reached that stage of disease when
death must ensue or speedy change for
the better. To remain where we are is i'm
possible. Mr. Buchanan has bankrupted
the government, and sustains it only by Dor
rowing The only means by which to re-
plenish the empty Golfers is rejected. The
nigger drivers will not have tariff that
will support the government. In the mad
schemes for national aggrandizement, all re-
straints Of the constitution is thrown aside
The sword and the purse are both demand
ed by the executive, and plant tools are
found to second his will The government
is given over to plumber and corruption
Even democrats themselves cannot endure
the revelations made by the navy investi-
eating committee. Such stealing and lying
such meanness and duplieity, such yenality
and bribery, from the president down, were
never before exposed to the adherence o
tho nation, II is openly declared by lead
ing democrats that the only salvation of the
democratic party viii be found in repudiat
ling Mr.. Buchanan and his administration
The peculiar dogmas Of the democracy hay'
worked their Datural and inevitable results
10 vote the ticket, the whole ticket anc
nothing but the ticket, has been tho cardi
nal principle Of that party. No matte
what demagoguc, or thief, or peuure'
lscoundfel got the nomination, be was cnti
sled to tho vote of the party. The result j
that professional politicians, tho meanes
and most corrupt of mankind, the offscour
4 ing Of all things, have seized on nearly al
Offices. These men have two ideas only
One is to enrich themselves, The other +
sustain their party, in order that it ma
sustain them. The evil has reached its eli
max, The American people must eithe
break down the system of party organizs
ton, out of which it has grown, or be brol
en- down by it. The point Of waste, corruT
lion and ruin which we have reached, is tn
inevitable result Of that system of primar
meetings and conventions by which the bu.
iness Of our elections has been carried OF

courteous and eminently proper II the
majority wished TO refuse to print a doc
ument addressed to the General Assembly,
by the chief Executive, eminehtly proper
in its tone and character, he was content.
Senator Taylor contcnded chat tho mo
tion TO print the Report, which had been
adopted, carried with Il the message. He
was supported by Senators Winans and
Greene; but the President pro tem,, Mr..
Laugdon, decided against that view of the
matter, and Mr.. Taylor offered a resolution
ordering the message to be printed with
the Report That was voted down. After
Mr. Safford's resolution had been adopted,
Mr. Taylor moved to print the message
His motion was decided to be out Of order,
and the Senate refused to suspend the rules.
The message is now on the table in both
bodies, but our readers will find it in our
columns this morning, and can Judge for
themselves whether the refusal of the ma
jority in the General Assembly to allow the
Governors constitutional protest. to go to
the people with the Report, was not an act
both of weak spite, and of transparent cow
ardice.
The Senate resolution to print the mes
sage with the Executive Documents, will
probably come before the House to-day,
whom some lively talk will no doubt be had

Fremont & Indi.na KaiIroad.

We are informed by one of the officers Of
this road, with whom we had talk few
days since, that the prospects aio very flat
tering for an early completion of it to this
point.
The cars are now running from Fremont
to Fostoria, in Seneca county, and with the
opening of canal navigation the Company
intend to push forward the track laying with
energy, and have the line open to Findlay
by the first of June next.
Sufficient iron has been purchased to lay
the track to Lima, and we are assured that
the means are obtained for putting it down.
The Company hope to have the line open
to Lima by the first day Of September
next. AT this point good Southern con
nection will be made with the D. & NJ Road,
and insure them large'sharc Of travel and
freight.
Tho opening of this road will be of great
benefit to Allen county. Stations will be
made at Beaverdam and Shannon, and a
healthy and vigorous growth of those towns
may be looked for.
The energy exhibited by the managers Of
this road, is sure guarantee that il is well
conducted While most other roads are
laying idle during the present dull times
this is going steadily forward, and will soor
be so far completed that quito an income
will be realized by its receipts from freight
and passenger business. When once it j
open to this point it viii become a paying
insttutiooy and those who have looked upoH
it with distrust, will begin to have a NOR
favorable opinion of it. Those residen
along its line should lond helping hand il
the enterprize, in order that the manager
may be able more effcctually to bring ii
consumation to a certainty. Lima Gdz.

OUR SENTIMENTS, ExAoTLY.-Our pro-
position made several weeks since through
the JOURNAL, that Hon. RALPH P, Buck
LAND of this place, was a man eminently fit
for the high station of Governor of Ohio, is
meeting with favorable responses in various
portions Of the State, and we arc inclined
to keep it before the people. The matter
stated in the communication, which we find
in the Cleveland Herald Of the 18th, is a
Just and merited compliment to Mr.. %.
Governors Nomination and Ralph r..
Esuckland, of Fremont, q.
The subject of nominating and eecting a
governor for the great State of 0hioinvolyes
such vast interests to her people that it is a
matter in no way to be tritied with or done
without duo Difference to the interest iu-
volved
The ever increasing demand for the fos-
toring care and protection of her varied and
complicated interests reaching from the far
mer's plow through all tho phases of incor-
porated interests, including lake, canal and
river commerce, railroads, mining, banking,
manufacturing, her common schools, litera-
ry and benevolent institutions, &C., &c. lays
upon the Ssato Executive a load adequate
only to the best talents, the most untiriug
industry, vigilence and fidelity.
In regard to the location all will concede
that the Northwest part of the State is en-
titled to the nomination. Aud having liv-
ed in the same county with Mr.. Bucklaud
fourteen years, 81 know whereof / affirm"
and can say that he is a modest, unpretend-
ing upright man. In legal requirements
profound, of untiring industry, looking
straight to the justice of the cause involved
discharging his duty fearlessly, wholly inca
pabe of being bought or bullied, not defc-
lent in backbone, highly esteemed by all
parties at home, both for the liberality of
his views and the rectitude of his principles; !;
man that has by his talents, and the as
siduity with which he has applied them to
the interests of the State, placed himself
among the foremost in the Ohio Senate,
and who possesses the requisites to poll a
large vote, and to discharge the duties per-
tanning to the Gubernatoral Chair in a
manner ereditable to himself, and satisfac-
tory to the people; and who should by all
means, be nominated and elected.

and fifteen years, eloped from Albany last
week, and went to Utica, stopping at the
residence of the boys uncle. 1t seems that
The young people attended the same school,
and had formed romantic attachment for
each other, so much so as to receive the
reprmaDd of their teacher for improper
conduct. The girls parents threatened if
she did not cease receiving the boys visits
they would send her away. She informed
her atrue loyyer,p who stole 500 from his
father, and the two took tho ears for Utica
on Saturday last. On discovering his loss,
the father Of the boy started in pursuit,
reached Utica Sunday morning, and took
the pair back to Albany. The girl has
since been locked up, the boy has received
a good cow-hiding, and their young love has
been brought 70 an abrupt termination.
