Remarkable Self Confession of an In
quisitor THE Way the InquisitO-
rial Business was Carried on!--Skin-
ming Him Alive!
From the CsrcleviUe Ohio Union, March 4th.
THE clRcLEvILLE WATERMAN.
Mr.. Editor In September last, cut out
number of articles from the Circleville Watch
man, which deemed treasonable and for
warded them to General Cameron. In short
time afterwards, | received the following re-
spouse from the Assistant Secretary of State,
and request you to publish it. Recently,
perceive, the Watcbman has modified its tone,
but it would be well fer its editor to remem-
Der, that justice may yet overtake him.

rotary of War, and by him referred to this
Depar tment, has been received. In reply,

to, continues in the course complained OF,

Assistant Secretary OF State.
REPLY OF THE Waterman.
We have no acquaintance with this Samuel
Hill-never heard of him beforehand did not
know that such vile and dirty reptile ever
disgraced the face Of Gods green earth, by
existing upon it. Where did he get copies OF
the Cireleville Waterman from which to "cut
number of articles, which he (I deemed
treasonable2' As Postmaster at Deer Greek,
he stole them from our regular subscribers
who receive their papers at that office, in d.
rect violation of the laws defining his duties
as Postmaster, and also Of a solemn oath
which he took with uplifted hand before Al
mighty God to obey those lawsl He is a dir
ty, contemplate, negro-thieving scoundrel,
and perjured wretch What fit subject
for pimp the dirty 6end and libel upon hu-
manity that he is He would not only steal
negroes--he would steal horses-he would
steal chickens-hc would rob the widow and
orphan--and the devil himself would refuse
such an infamous wretch admission into hell
He is tory, a traitor, a thief, TO the extent
OF his very limited brains, and if he has any
at all of that article, they are the brains Of
the Shiny viper that God never intended as
"a
vile animal called hyena is to have an exis-
tence after death, it should be with Samuel
Hill, in some pollution far beneath the bot
tomless pit.
Notwithstanding the disgrace that would
attach to any respectable man for paying any
sort of attention to such vile brute, we will
promise now that If he ever comes within our
reach, and we hope he may, he will get the
best cowhiding that ever fell TO the LOT Of a
dirty dog. He shall have a good cause to
sympathize with his negro brethren upon whom
the abolltonists say the lash is laid in the
South--he shall have the extent Of the law of
New England in the days of witchcraft, thirty
nine good lashes well laid on
Who is this f. W. Seward A slave of a
base fanaticism, who has been taught and be-
lieves that he is no better than the negro and
God knows we are willing to admit that he is
not--indeed he is not as good--he is meaner
than the meanest negro we ever knew for he
is hypocrte and a traitor to this Union like
his father who breaches the t'irrepressble con-
flict," and "higher law" than the Constitu-
toni We reckon this thing called Samuel
Hill, is Mr.. Stewards pimp and spy for Picka-
way county. He is to sneak around and lis
ten for something to drop from lips Of hon.
est Democrats, to steal the papers of those
who are obliged to receive them through the
Deer Greek Post-office, and to report to the
despots and perjured traitors who rule cow
ard-like behind military despotism at Wash
ington, trampling under foot and crushing
out the constitutional rights of the people
every day under the false and hypocritical plea
OF military necessity'-a plea made only
BY despicable tyrants and despots, like those
who rule heather Dahomey and Ashantce.
We have but one favor to ask Of Mr.. f. W.
Seward, or of his omnipotent and kingly sire
That is, that they will give us as much as twen-
ty-iour hours notice of the time when their
minions will arrive to crush out the treasona-
Die Circlevllle Watchman, and they will be
met with the hottest reception they will re-
ceive anywhere this side Of their final destina-
uon IN the internal regions of eternal danna-
ton They win get lead as hot as that which
Beezeouo wild give them, and steel SO cold
mat u VIII freeze their cold blood. We will
promise the cowardly despots as hot recep-
aon as they received at Bull Run
MARYLAND FREED.-They have had grand
ball lately in Richmond according 10 female
secession authority in Baltimore, at which
