lowed work at this particular iuncture Of the
affairs Of the country, nevertheless we are in
duced to direct public attention to the rumor,
because Of its novelty in this section of coun-
try, and the respectable association which is
said to be connected with it
That there are not wanting those who would
find pleasure in the disruption Of the great
"Union party which has SO long acted in
harmony in this county, we will not assume to
controvert: and that they would we're it posi-
BILE divide and conquer" is no doubt equally
true; but in fomenting disaffection in this 10
cality they have committed mistake, equal
to that of the tricksters who would have put
Gen. Sherman in nomination as the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of this State
and from any honest supporter of the govern
ment, whose Imagination they would dazzle
with the hope of Office through their instru-
mentality, they will be entitled to and receive
a similar answer "what have | done to merit
this indignity" as though by the commission
of some low mean action, he had lost honor
able position and become a fit associate of the
incorrigibles;-had fallen into their embrace,
and ceaseft to be the associate and equal of
his former loyal companions!
In this connection it is not improper for us
perhaps further to remark, that there is anoth-
er scheme in progress, designed to operate in
the same direction we allude to the establish
ment Of newspapers to compete ciM those
1hich are dcroted to the maintenance Of tie
good cause, which when it becomes necessary
to bag the game, shall hoist their true colors,
and enflade the party with their partisan war
fare, whom it was dcternined from the first to
destroy. Our accounts from various sections
of country warrant the reference we make to

STATE SESAToR.--Wcdnesday the 23d inst.
has been designated for assembling "Union
Convention" at Gallipolis to nominate can
didatc for Senator from this District, when
suitable selection will be made, which no
doubt will receive the cordial support of the
friends Of the Union throughout the District:
The counties composing this Senatorial Dis
trict, consist of Lawrence, Gallia, Vinton and
Meigs, the three first of which, have furnished
the encumbcnts to this dignifcd position since
the organization of the District The County
of Meigs in the meantime though pressing no
one of her able citizens, giving hearty and
cordial support to the nominee of each
preceding convention. Now however the peo-
pie of Meigs, presume to think, their turn has
come when she should bc equally honored in
the person Of one of her citizens receiving the
nomination for this position, which VIC know
will be gratifying and cordially endorsed by
the popular vote of this County; Though the
people Of this County hereafter as heretofore,
will heartily support the nominee of the in
coming convention no matter from which
county he may be selected still it will be graf
flying if the Senatorial gown should fall on
the shoulders of one of our citizens, which &C.
cording to usuages on all similar occasions
should be the case, and doubtless will be so,
if the delegation from this County shall unite
with signal unanimity on one Of many Of our
able citizens. ...- .-..t..,...

PROLONGED:
lst by appointing territorial Governor,

I'd. That the Governors thus appointed,

treason, shall finnish the President with a
list Of all such delectallc persons, who shall
receive full pardon and immunity, be washed

they launched out in the commission of un.

they may leisuroly reunite ,eith their old as

and play the very deuce if they are SO mind

the Union; thwarting its measures, beggaring
the Treasury, and rolling rocks in the path Of
the Government, which debris cannot readily
be removed. Admirable plan this to quiet
the country and dispose of treason: we won

other measures has been remarkably discreet
and successful, will see cause to stay this sui
cidal policy, and adopt the only course whici
is calculated to still the storm which his un
