FOR GOVERNOR OF OHIO,
DAVID TOD, Of Trumbull.
We have received no news from Washington
City since the meeting Of Congress.

OHIO LEGisLATURE.--Just as our paper wal
going to press, we received the accounts of the
organization of the Ohio Legislature; which VIZ
publish below.
Both branches of the Legislature organized this
morning, by electing the following officers:
Senate--Gen. SEABURY FORD, Speaker; OvI-
ATT COLE, Clerk; VIM. M. PATTERSON, Serge
ant-at-arms. In the House, f. F. DRAKE, Speak
er: A. H. Lewis, Clerk; and THOMAS BRAD
SHAW, Sergeantat-Arms
The officers Of both branches were elected to
serve permanently during the session, instead of
pro tenn, which would have been in accordance
with sound legislative rules By the course pur-
sued, the Speakers elected before their right
to membership was reported upon by the Commit
tee on Elections, and. therefore, before il were
known whether they were members or not, or that
hose who voted for them were entitled to their
eats - Ohio Statesman.

BRITISH PHILANTHROPY.

Much has been said OF the phian-
thropic nature Of the British towards
slaves, but their benevolent feelings
have been more aroused in favor oi
ours.ave population than favor Of any
other. This kind feeling does not emf
nate from any real fellow feeling they
possess towards the colored race, bul
it springs from desire to overthrow
this institution OF our country. AS a
very pretty sample Of the disinterested
and philantropic views Of the British to
the ameioration Of negro slaves, we
will lay before our readers what the
Washington correspondent of the N.
Y. Journal of Commerce says, with
regard to the tender mercies shown to
the negroes captured by the British on
the open seas, and taken by them to
Brazil. In speaking of the dispatches
received by Mr.. Wise, our minister at
Brazil, the correspondent: says:
"The documents are volumlnous, and
present deplorabe picture of the ex-
tent and miseries of the traffic, and OF
the aggravated evils which have sprung
from British interference. The docu-
ment shows that the system is convert
ed into n mode of enriching the British
naval officers at the expense OF unheard
of expressions and cruelties exercised
upon the African race. Africans are
stolen with the connivance of these
officers in the Mozambique channel,
for the mere purpose of putting the
price money into their own pockets.
"The dispatches of Mr.. Wise prove
that the British system of African ap-
premiership is the most barbarous and
oppressive code Of slavery hitherto
known to history. The negroes
brought from Africa are apprenticed,
that is, sold for fifteen years, to pay
their passage, in Brazil, Guiano. and
Demarara, and generally are worked
to death before the expiration of their
term. The day of redemption never
arrives to the African apprenticed un-
der the British laws. His life ceases
when his master has no interest to
keep him alive.
"rhese documents will come before
the world in due time, perhaps not un-
til after Congress meets. They will
expose, in true light the pretensions
of the British Government to phian-
thropy, and to an exclusive right to
guard the black man."

WHAT WE LIKE TO SEE.


The democracy Of Columbiana are composed Of
as pure men as the sun ever shone upon. They
are always triumphant A meeting was held AZ
New Lisbon on the fourth ult., during court, and
delegates were appointed to the Democratic State
Convention, at Columbus, on the 9th of January
next. The resolutions offered to the meeting bv
our friend w. d. Morgan, esq.,, editor of the Pat.
riot breathe spirit which pleases US very much.
we have only room for two of the resolutions:
Resolked, That we have witnessed with deem
regret, the wide spread and embitered strife which
has sprung up in different sections of Ohio, and
that we earnestly enjoin upon our friends the ne.
cessity of re-esablishing brotherhood Of feeling
-banshing all consid erations of personal or pri.
vate character. and making common sacrifice up.
on the altar Of the common good
Resolved. That on the subject of banking, the
democracy of Columbiana county steadfastIy ad-
here to the doctrines which they have heretofore
avowed, and respectfully, yet most earnestly, pro-
test against any effort which may be made, on the
one hand, to drive the party forward with destruc-
tive impetuosity or. on the other hand, to retara
its steady progress by an unworthy abandonment
Of the ground already assumed"

BILE conversation with him. Mr.. Ste w
art. tailor in Concord, testified tha
he made a pair of pantaloons for tn,
prisoner on the twenty-ninth of July
and from peculiarity of make identi
| fed those now worn by the prisoner
in court as those he made. Anothe
witness testified that he saw the pris
oner about the first Of August. in Mon
mouth, on his way to Nashua. Sew
eral of the witnesses were recognized
by the prisoner in court, and called by
name by him; every one of these wit
nesses swore that they had not doubt
that the prisoner at the bar was the
same man they saw in New Hampshire
as described.
"The counsel for defence here rest
ed their case, having proved the most
remarkable case of abb that has ever
been known in this country. The
counsel for the government admitted
the aRbi on the twenty-sixth and
twenty-eighth of July; but thought the
government witnesses were mistaken
as to dates, and thought it might have
been on the nineteenth and twenty
first Of July, but the dates could not
be altered, and the jury acquitted the
prisoner without retiring from the
court room, and he was discharged.
"There is one thing very remarka-
bic about the case; that is, that per-
son so nearl y resembling the william
who committed these enormities should
be Immediately recognized by all these
witnesses for government, at the well
of Mr.. Houghton, drinking, only two
weeks after the offences were commit
ted; it would seem still more strange
that the prisoner, if guilty, should have
been found there; there probably new
er was fact more satisfactorily prov
ed than the innocence OF the prisoner.
II has been most remarkable case,
the witnesses for the government were
all mistaken as to the identity of the
prisoners; a fact, as the Judge well re-
marked, almost sufficient to shake all
C onfdence in human testimony"
