E The Trustees of Gallipolis
township, in another article in this
paper seem to think great injustice
was done them, in our remarks on
the introduction of certain classes OF
psupers into the county Infrmary.
The facts, as we detailed them, we're
given US by one who is presumed to
know. We had no design to reflect
upon the official character of the
Trustees. or il any way dctraet from
their merit as trustworthy and up
right men. Our object has been at
tanned in placing them in an attitude
of defence, and affording them an
opportunity of correcting any erron-
eous impressions on the public mind.
How far they have succeeded in do
ing SO, we leave the public to judge.
They admit the fact of sending one
family there. That family was left
on our wharf by the steamer Allen
Collier, from Charleston, and no one
pretends to claim for them a resi-
dence in this State.
We were assured that three of
those 'bawds" were then in the In.
frmary. 1t is not asserted by our
Trustees that there are none there
Why they have neglected to say SO
they best know.
We wish it distinctly understood
thatwe have no design or desire to
imply censure or blame to any one.
but merely to advise caution in tax
ing up cases, that might be disposed
of more profitablv in some other
way.

EThe Government buildings i

HThe Government buildings in
Gallipolis, except those connected
with the Hospital, were sold on Fri
day last, under direction of Capt.
Fleming, A. Q. III. of Charleston
The prices ranged from S12 to $3.50.
New lumber brought from sl,30-to
31,s5 per C. The sale was wen at
tended and very fair prices obtained
for every thing. The unsightly edi-
fees are already rapidly disappear
ing, and in every direction you meet
teams laden with old lumber. Our
town will probably be built up before
the 1st of May next. One good ef
feet it will produce, and that is 9
very considerable reduction of rents
of tenant houses, the meanest and
most insignificant of which have
been rented at most exorbitant
prices.
Capt Fleming won golden opin.
ions from all sorts of men for his
pyomptness and energy, and his af.
! liability and gentlemanly department
towards persons having business
with him.
The sales amounted to something
over $1,000
