This, the True Telegraph says, is what

We think the case Of Captain Hurtt
DOES in reality require ''immediate
searching examination" if ever case
! did, or ''the butternuts' will make it
ring. lie and his accompliees first
used their paper, the Ohio State Jour
nal, to denounce the men in their way
as "disloyal' and "sympat thizing with
the rebels" This dirty trick was well
Elaid, TO operate on the authorities at
Washington, just as such infamous
language is used to deceive the people
and cheat them out of their honest
votes. e.... -. ,--a..N .
As soon as Hurt got his position
as Quarternaster at Cincinnati, "with
the rank of Captain" he and his
partner, Allen, both proprietors and
editors of the journal, laid their plans
to rob the Government. HURT wrote
Allen to employ Ex-Governor Denni-
son to go to Washington and arrange
matters, and urged Allen to pay Den
nison literally, to not stop at cost as
they had good thing of it.
| Governor Dennison did go to Wash>
ington, made the arrangements, and
one Of the most extensive systems of
fraud, peculation and outright THE
wing was commenced that has yet oc-
Cured in this thieving war.
1t appears that the enormous "horse
swindle' by brother Of Governor
Dennison, exposed by the Louisville
Journal some months ago, grew out Of
this good thing" which HURT and
Allen had gotten up.
Scott, an Agent, in some way con,
nectcd with j. Cooke & Co., Secretary
Chaso's travelling Treasury Of green
backs, was arrested soon after HURT 8
arrest. Since then several others,
and among them Mr., Smith, who
has been 1lourishing ten thousand dol
lar match horses and diamond breast
pins,' which are the "loyal' sort, at
the White Sulphur, is also among the
arrested. .......
Governor Dennison's completely in
these swindles appears to be clearly
established, but how Senator John
Sherman is mixed up with it we have
not learned.
Now, mark you, the Ohio State
Journal, owned by Allen and HURT,
is the organ Of the Republican. party
Of the State, and Governor Dennigon
and Senator John Sherman are the
chief Speakers at the Republican
meetings. They are careful on all oc-
casions to denouuce the Democrats as
"disloyal," traitors &C., &c., and
threatened to BAYoNET them into SUBS
MISSION. . .. .... ...
HURT got into his post at Cincin,
natl by starting the cry of "disloyalty"
upon his predecessor, (Capt, Dicker-
son, an old army oficer,) because he
would not permit these ':loyalists to
steal through his Office. Now to hide
their thefts, the Ohio State Journal,
Gov. Dennison and John Sherman
howl through the State the charge of
"disloyaity,' treason upon every
one who dares expose their nefarious
transactions; aud the whole brood of
Government contractors, Tax gather
ers, excise men, Provost Marshals,
Post Masters and tools of every sort
and character, reiterate the cry, ho-
ping to f0ol enough Of innocent peo-
pie to cover their frauds and escape ex-
fposure. m
Such men would of course for the
sake of carrying off their plunder
with impunitye drench Ohio in civil
war and blood. And this accounts
for many, if notall the evidence exhi-
biting itself all oyer the State. Let
the people be watchful and wary, ac-
tive and sleepless. There is more yet
to come ~ Crisis.
