TnE TREsSuRY M,TrER. As the Courier
maintains stubborn silence on the Vanlue
mOtter, md as our paper has not got into
quite all the hands of the people OF Han.
cock county, we feel it our duty to make a
statement Of the Vanlue trouble. On the
5th day Of September, 1861, Mr.. Benjamin
Huber took possession of the Treasurer ,
Office. The books showed that there was
IN the treasury the sum OF SIS. .s25 10. Van.
lue paid over TO Huber So ,5l9 A. leaving
a balance against him Of s2,s0s %. Van
lue said that there were errors IN the books
to that amount, and he would shortly inves
ligate the matter and make them appear.-
The thing run along. We believe that al
the investigations instituted did not change
the balance due the county from Van
lue. The County Commissioners held sew
eral meetings, but nothing was done unit
asst spring; after having been stirred up
they did call a meeting. Mr. vanlue ap
peared and told them that on the first o
June he would pay the money, and at som,
future period examine the books, and if tn,
errors really existed, the county could levi
that amount next year and refund to him.
singular ss it may seem, the Board accepte,
this proposition. The first OF June com,
and passed--the money was not paid, an,
has not been up to date. We heard yester
day that Mr.. vanlue has promised sgain e
pay In week or two. In the meantim,
over sl00 has been paid in interest on coun
| ty orders, that could not be paid for want o
this money. How do the tar. payers OF Han
cock like this style Of managing mattersf-
MI. Vanlue and his bail are good for TIM
money, and yet it's allowed TO remain II
his hands ten months after the expiration o
the term, with not even q arespectsbls effor
to collect it. and all this time the count,
paying interest for want ofit.

TnE GUITAR GRADES. - The village Mar.
cleaning up the bitches and alleys in Find
lay, and the matter is pretty generally being
needed. But we hear great complaint on
the part OF some thus compelled TO work on
the streets year after year without receiving
any compensation for il, except the eQuiva-
lent OF good health. or these fre luent
complaints we would say, they are well
grounded. This thing of cleaning street
cutters before every shower. in order to coax
the water of the streets and lots, is very an.
noying, and is simply an accommodation on
the part OF those who thus labor. With the
amount of fall which the cutters Of our town
might have, il properly graded, every rain
shower would clean them. The truth is, we
could mention some street gn,ters which
might obtain dec!ivity Of eight OF ten feet,
that have not fall Of so many inches.-
Then again, We might refer to several streets
which are not macsdamized, yet still hi igher
than the adjacent bitches, thus washing the
mud into said bitches in wet weather. And
citizens are compelled TO compensate the
stupidity of some former Street Commission
er or Supervisor by gratuitous labor on the
bitches and alleys. The Marshal is not in
fault for carrying out the spirit of the ordi,
nances in this respect; but the Council
ought, in justice to the citizens. TO lower the
terminus OF every ditch leading either 10 the
river OF Eagle creek. and grade them suiii
cently to carry of the water with swiftnes,
enough to keep the cutters clean.

A War Mar OyraArios. = Last week
the Auditor received request from the
Governor 10 srpoint7s Military ovmmittes
for Hancock county. II is probable that,
from some cause, the Governor did moi
know that this county had . committee aud
an efficient one but outstanding that
the requ est must have been made under q
misspprehen OF facts, II was too good an
opportunity to wresk a little spite upon the
Union men OF the county, TO let pass. 81
the county officers got together for the pur-
pose OF appointing new Committee. The
original Committee was constituted as fol.
lows: Republicans j. S. Patterson, J. B.
Rothchild. Union Democrat - DR.. J. F.
Perky. Democrsts--James A. Bope, Bdson
Colt. or these, while all did their duty,
Messrs. Patterson, Rotbchild aud Perky
were particularly active and prompt. Dur
ing the raising Of the 57th regiment they
spared no labor, time or money to facilitate
the raising Of the regiment aud to provide
for the comfort OF the msn. Yet our county
officials threw these men out, and put instead
u. G. Baker, Joel Markle and A. p. Byal
thus making the Committee four Demo.
Gratis and one Republican. This, however,
did not suit Mr.. William Gribben, the gen
ileman who owns the Democracy OF Han.
cock. He protested against the appoint.
ment Of any Republican - claimed that the
Commissioners had a voice in the matter,
and tha, they must be consulted. Meek as
lambs The officers acquiesced, and at his
bidding the letter to Governor Tod was
taken ont Of the Poslofflce. The Commits
sioners met, and onirmed the action Of the
Board, so one Republican is yet on the
Committee. Nr. William Gribbcn, took
Mr.. Slddall, the Clerk, to task for the crime
Of allowing Narklc 10 remain on the Com.
1ittee. He 'waked up the wrong customer
Mr.. Siddall, IN very decided terms, inform.
ed him that he did not own him, aud that
what the county officers did was none Of hts
business. Gribben stOrned and raved for
time; but Slddali stuck to hls colors. FL

THg FAiR.--The Board OF Managers OF
the Agricultural Society are pushing the
work for the Pair next Fail, with q great
cal Of energy.
The Fairs OF our Agricultural Society. for
several years past, in regard TO the quality
and variety OF articles on exhibition, have
been quite equal, il not superior, TO those
of neighboring counties. They have also
shown constant progress in the productive
resources OF our soil-each exhibition being
materially better than that which preceded
it. We feel warranted in the prediction,
that, from the present fatterng indications
OF abundant crops OF grains, fruits and veg
etnoles, and the lively interest manifested d
in the matter by our citizens, the mex, an
nual Fair will be decidedly the best we have
ever witnessed in Hancock county. To
make The approaching exhibition OF greater
interest each individual should vie with his
neighbor IN eSertions to produce something
worthy OF exhibition. We commend the
enterprise oall our citizens as worthy their
eouDtenance and support, and doubt not
that they will make every exer,ion to add
interest TO The coming Fai BY compari.
son We learn the true character and value OF
our productions, and by an interchange Of
sentiments with our neighbors, we acquire
that information which enables us to pro-
duce with the mos, facility and best econo
my. This being the case, it is not only ne.
cessary that we see the articles exhibited
but we must talk TO those whose products
demonstrate have more experience than us
CLEAN from them everything Of interest in
our peculiar line OF business, and at the
same time impart for our neighboi's beneh
any information We may possess.

are lamentably IN the rear. We have com
