RHODE ISLAND ELECTION.

The election In Rhode Island for Governor, Lieut.
Governor, Senator'S and Assemblymeu, took place
on "Wednesday. The vote is much smaller than
usual on both sides In other respects there appears
TO be no great change from last year. The Wing
majority in the State then between 400 and 5O0
and is not less at present But owing TO the fact OF
there having been three candidates for Governor
(two Of them Whigs) there ISL choice for that Of
fce For similar reason there Is no choice for
Lieut.. Governor; nor for Senator's, except two or
three out Of ten There is no doubt Of the election
Of Samuel w. King and Thomas Holden Wings,
10 the Senate, and perhaps one Van Buren, man;
they having been two tickets. Last year all the
Senators were Wings, being elected BY general
ticket.
At the next trial for Governor, a plurality will
elect. OF course Mr.. Sprague will be continued in
Office.
There will be Wing majority in the Assembly.
Last year, Wing majority IT, fthe towns veto be
heard from, come in the same rs last year, there

MR.. RIVES AND THE GLOBE.

IL we mistake not the character OF the peopk OF
Virginia, they will regard with scorn and indisna-
tion this high handed attempt Of The executive IN
terfere with their local. affairs, and TO blast the cha
rac,er of their most accomplished statesman. Like
The memorable effort Of the Van Buren, party inNew
York, to expel De Witt Clinton from the Board Of
Canal Commissioners, and 10 break him dow as
politician, this attempt Of the same party, TO drive
MIR. Rves from the Senate, and 10 PROSTATE lin IN
Virginis will recoil on their own heads. There IS
100 much penetration in the people OF that state TO
be deceived and TOO much honesty to be swayed by
such Vaccinations. The vindication Of ME- Rives
Is before the people, and the prospect now Is that ne
will be restored TO the Senate, and be able TO con-
found his enemies and add the weight OF his talents
in support OF sound constitutional principles Such
contamination is devouily TO be wished
Had the Virginia Senator preferred official power
and influence to the good Of the country, the highest
Office under the government was AT his option No
MIN has been more couried by the executive pro.
vided he would pledge himself to blind support Of
executive measures, right or wrong But Mr. Rives
was not composed Of such plant stuff He was not
to be converted into the passive instrument OF any
man or sci Of men at the sacrifice of his own honor
and self respect. He preferred being Senator from
Virginia the highest honor in the gift OF the Pre-
sidenl. Hence was his support Withheld from the
party discipline. was lie 6dea5o6tsde BY the ofe al
organ, and has been hunted and pursued by the mi
mons of power, from the centre to the extremites Of
the Republic.
His appeal contains full vindication OF his con-
sistency. Soon alter the accession of Mr.. Van Blu
rem, April T. 1884, he wrote the President letter, in
which he stated explicitly that he was opposed othe
sub-treasuTy scheme In course of the next month,
| MIR. Van Buren, wrote him letter, soliciting his
rteps on the financial policy to be pursued. 10 an
swer TO this direct appeal, Mr.. Rives set forth his
views in detail, In opposition to the sub-treasnry
| plan, and exhibited his own conservative views Of
the subject. His sentiments had, moreover, been
clearly revealed 10 the Senate long anterior TO this
correspondence. With what proprieiy then, could
even the Globe charge him with Inconsistency? The
fact Is, MIR. Rves has always been consistent Like
Mr.. Tallmadge of New York, he has been true
conservative, and SUCH faithful to The constitution
and laws, while the President HIS shown dispose
on to abrogate both, for party purposes, aiming at
sell-aggrandizrment Under such circumstances,
the more Mr.. Rves Is abused by the administration
the more likely he will be to prevail in hsown State,
and the higher he will stand in the estimation Of The
| republic

Be IL erer 50 Humble there IS no Place like Home
We think the annals Of Prisons will hardly furnish
parallel with the following facts, for which we are
indebted TO correspondent:
about the year 1920, James Osborne, of Sher-
man, in this county, was convicted of charge of
assault and battery, and sentenced to pay small
fine and cost The precise amount OF the whole we
do not recolect, but II was quite inconsiderable.-
The amount not being paid, he was committed TO
the jail of Danbury, where he remained eightees
years As the law has stood during that period, he
could be discharged from his Imprisonment only
upon either paying the fine and cost, or giving his
note for the amount. This he ever steadily refused
to do. The Judges of the County Court, the Sherifs
and States Attorneys have all endeavored to get rid
Of him, and to persuade him TO execute the note for
without the note, neither one nor all OF them had
any authority to release him. But all has been in
vain and he has remained tenant ot the prison
During the session OF the Legislature, in May last
representation of these facts was made TO that
body, and resolution passed, ordering him TO be
released Internationally. Even then he refused to
leave the Jail, and was forcibly termed out He
returned TO his native place. but his friends and ac-
quaintances, with only few exceptions has disap-
peared. Some had removed and others Msre no
longer among the living, and he found their places
occupied by another generation Of men. He was
stranger In the land of his fathers and sighed for
his former habitation within the walls Of the prison
He wandered about for n few months, and in Octo-
Der last, returned 10 the jail In Danbury ard sought
admission. The jtilor received HIM, and there he
now is, occupying one Of the cells OF that Jail. and
paying the keeper two dollars per week for his enter.
