The XeRla TOrch-LIght Cores
pOndent.

The Journal Of this morning copies letter
purporting to have been written in Washing
ton, and originally published in the Xenia
Torch Light, charging that the present pro.
prietors Of the EMPIRE purchased the paper
at the instance Of and with funds furnished
by, the Administration Also, that Col STF-
FORD "has stock in the Dayton EMPIRE and
that one of the partners is taking the census
in Hillsborough" The article purports, We
say, TO have been written in Washington; we
doubt it. But whether it was, or not is inn
material The author Of it is known, and by
those who know him best, as one of the most
conceited men in Dayton. In addition to his
former reputation, he may now add that of a
deliberate and oilfal liar, and coatemph-
Die puppy, which we brand him, Without
the brains necessary to secure prominent
position in his party, by fair and honorable
action, he is compelled to play the part of a
tool TO achieve the notoriety for which he is
itching.
AS for the charges referred TO above, we
pronounce them false Neither the Admins
iration, nor any member Of it, had anything to
do with the purchasing oft EXPIRE They
have nothing TO do with its publication. We
have not received one cents worth of Govern
ment patronage since we have been here as
the paper itself will show nor have we asked
for any Col. SrFFoRD has no stock in the
office, and whoever says to the contrary, states
q. ~, ..a,tln.,o,, t, No
taking the census in Marlborough, received
the appointment while one of the editors Of
the Gazette in that place, not only before the
EMPIRE was purchased by the present proprie-
tors but before he even knew that this office
was for sale.
The Journal in aluding TO this letter states
that "it is very significant that the U. s
Treasury should be brought into requisition to
combat the Republicans of Montgomery coun-
IT, That SUE aid is given in this locality is
doubtless owing to the fact that Montgomery
county is in Mr. Yallandigham's district The
people of Montgomery will doubtless be re,y
grateful for the fatherly care which the ad-
ministration has extended over them,' and
thus creates the inference that those engaged
in the publication of the EXPIRE, do so
through assistance furnished from the U. s,
Treasury. We again repeat that the Admins
tration has nothing 10 do with the success OF
this paper. We receive no aid from IL The
present proprietors are in no way dependent
upon it. They rely solely for success in the
enterprise in which they are engaged upon
the patronage of the Democracy of this section
of the State. They are determined to publish
Democratic paper su6serpient 10 the bid
ding o. oTnO man or SET Of WeH,--neither the
Administration, or any body else-and doing

A Inst Rebuke,

The Cincinnati Press in commenting upon
the refusal OF Gov. DENNsoN, of Ohio TO de-
liver KENNEDY on arequisition from the Gov
ernor of Tennessee, for stealing slaves in that
State and selling them in Virginia, on the
ground that slaves are not recognized as pro-
perty by the laws of Ohio, and therefore it
can not be crime under our laws, TO steal
them, very Justly rebukes the hypocrisy Of the
party of freedom and its failure to practi-
cally enforce the principles which it processes
when opportunity is given to test its sincerity I;
Perhaps we may be pardoned for mention
ing that the sovereignty and dignity Of Ohio
would be better exhibited by protecting her
own honest Citizens than by shielding rogues
from other States A free citizen of Ohio has
been confined in Jail in Kentucky for about
eight months, on the suspicion of being n
slays, and on Monday was sold into slavery to
pay the claims which aad accrued against him
a the effort 10 prove him to be slave yet,
during all this time, we have heard of no
movement on the part of the Executive Of
Ohio to protect this humble citizen nor to
prosecute his right to freedom in the Ken
tucky Courts From mere helplessness, grow
ing out Of his color and his proyerty, this citi-
zen of Ohio has beeen overcome by the fees
which have accumulated against him. and
Just us he is sold into slavery the Republican
Governor of Ohio vindicates the sovereignty
of the State by throwing its ggis over a knaye
who robbed his wife of her patrimony
How much we have gained by the ascend
ency of this party of freedom, as it is face
tionsly called, may be estimated by an incident
during the administration of Democratic Gov.
Wood, and Democratic Legislature, when
the family of Peyton Polly was kidnapped in
Ohio and sold into slavery, part in Virginia
and part in Kentucky Governor Wood pre-.
sented the case to the Legislature, who autho'
rized the appointment of an agent to reclaim
these persons The agent found no obstruc-
ton in the Kentucky courts and the persons
taken there were released In Virginia, he
met legal distractions and delays and that
pert Of the Polls family are wearing out their
lives in slavery, and no effort has been made
for their rescue during the five years Of Re
publican administration in Ohio.

Enron ENrRr--In yesterdays Journal
appeared m article from the Cincinnati Ga.
setfe, which, as Il i copied without comment,
suppose We are a. liberty 10 assume express
es the opinions Of the Journal and Of the
Republican leaders generally.
In The article referred Pfheissuf aliempt
ed 70 be thrust upon the Drmocraiic parsy,, ~
"Shall the laborcrs Of this land he compelled
10 take the position or degraded caster
Whence Is this issue dcrivedG Isit from the
teachings of the Democratic pres'9 No Is
Il from the known and expressed opinions Of
prominent Democratic leaders, No. Is Il
from the natural results Of Democratic prinei-
ples9 So il is pretended Yet, not an argu.
ment is advanced TO sustain this position--nos
a reason given why such results should follow
Had this been attempted its utter failure
would have obviated all necessity for reply
Il only because they dare not state their
principles openly--because they dare not
meet the true issue, that, by appealing to pop
ular sympathieS, the people are ever beguiled
into the support Of their candidates Because
the Democratic party is in favor Of allowing
the laborer the same privileges in the Terrific
ries he enjoys in the States--because we are
opposed TO Congress debating laws for the
Territories Of whose wants il knows nothing;
to usurping powers which belong to the people
because we are in favor Of that principle for
which the Revolution was fought, that we
will not obey laws which we have had no agen-
cy in making, g,'-because, in fine, we are in
favor Of giving the people liberty therefore
we are in favor Of their degradation.
Such is the reasoning on which the conclu
sion rests. Away with all such nonsensel Tn,
question is, can our Government, exist as our
fathers made IN
"The idea Says the article Of which W,
are speaking the idea that four millions o.
laborers can be held in slavery at the Soutl
without degrading the white laborers boti
North and South, is absurd In other word'
we must choose either disunion or degrade
ton. On this the Democratic party join'
issue-this is the question to be tried in tn,
present campaign The Democratic part,
says, we can live as our fathers lved--we can
as one nation, be free and happy. The Re
publicans deny it The people must try th'
issue, and as their decision is, so will our fu
ture destiny be, $.

Facts About the Japanese.

A gentleman who had some communication
with the Japanese at San Francisco states it
as his belief that Masonary, or some institu-
ton nearly resembling it, exists in Japan
Captain Mongaroo, who acts as interpreter for
the Admiral binted at some such an order, but
did not seem TO be very communicative, above
it, alleging that its propagation was restricted
by law in his native country. Another still
more curious fact is, that the Japanese think
they can establish some distant relationship
between the native California Indians and
themselves While the Candinmarruh was at
Mare Island, an Indian lad, from the vicinity
of Clear Lake, who had been domesticated as
servant in the family Of Captain Frisbe, at
Vallego, was confronted by some of the Ja-
panese, and a number Of the words in his and
their languages were found to be nearly alike
The boy left his tribe at so early an age that
he had forgotten most Of his natiye tongue but
many words which he could recollect almost
tailed with those of the Japanese,
Some of the japanese servants were axious
to see some cbiefor grown person Of the tribe,
and establish the similarity more completely.
At first, one ofthe officers insisted that the lad
was runaway from Japan, and wished to take
him back with them. They we're also some
physical characteristics about the boy resem-
bling an inferior class of Japanese. That the
northwest coast was originally peopled from
Asia is new theory and even Mexico and Cen.
trail America may have received their first in
habitants from the West Japanese junks
have visited the coast of America in time past
The wreck of one has been lately found ON the
coast of Lower California. The Japanese, in
deed, may bRye reached the coast by an almost
continuous land belt, formed by the Aleutian
and Fox Islands, along the iifty-frst parallel
of latitude. Some learned pundit might take
this as a text for u pamphlet

a Pretty Little Shakeress runs OF
with y Young Man.

IL is well known that the Shakers do not
marry The sexes are kept entirely separate
That us n sect they faithfully and rigidly adj
here TO this principle, cannot be doubted. But
sometimes human nature bursts out among the
younger brethren and sisters, and they go of
and get married The doors of Shakerdom
are forever barred against them while they live
as man and wife The Shaker village at War.
rensville, some six miles from the city, was re-
Gently the scene of an elopement
Lizzie Martin was adopted by the Society
when she was eight years old. At that age she
thought celibacy was very nice arrangement,
But when she reach the interesting age Of
seventeen, she slightly changed her mind She
encountered pair Of black eyes one day; said
eyes being the property Of a young man named
Murray She thought there could be no harm
in those eyes, and wished the owner of them
would renounce the world, adopt long waist
coats and take up his abode with the Shakers
altogether, so she could see him and talk
with him every day. But the young man did
not incline favorably TO long waistcoats, and
after he and sister Elizabeth had had a few
stolen interviews, she began to doubt the pre-
eminent benefcence Of long waistcoats herself
The Shakers learned of these interviews,
and in accordance with the teachings of their
belief, tried TO prevent her seeing him more.
They meant well, but Of course their efforts
were not crowned with success. Quite the
contrary. When young girl gets her mind
made up that young man is about as near
right as he can be- her parents or guardians
may as well "let her went without any fuss,
for she is bound to go.
On Friday last two friends of Mr.. Murray, n
Mr. Foot and student in the Law College in
this city, arrived near the Shaker settlement
at the close of the day. They fingered near
until dark when they passed the house con-
tanning the pretty little Shakeress She knew
Of their intended advent and promptly answer
ed the signal they gave her. Soon she appear
ed in the street and accompanied them to
Doane's Corners, where Murray awaited her.
The meeting was ardent The young lady was
attired in her plain Shaker dress, but the garb
could not disguise her beauty, which is of the
dazzling kind The couple are one by this
time, and we extend our blessing after the
manner of stage fathers -CIeue Ptdindeaier.
