For the
Statesman.
Jacob Gross, P. M. at Zanesfield, Logan Co., Ohio,
removed to make room for one Squire Barton, a
special guardian over "female virtue."
John Webb, P. M. at Quincy, Logan Co., O.,
removed to make room for a blue bellied fed, by the
name of Osbourn. Not a charge can be
brought against either of these individuals, further
than the mere preference of Mr. Van Buren
over "Tip. and Ty." Go it whiggery -
hang out your 'coon skins.
