The Judicial acQuittal Of the Mob

We have too much regard for common S(asc,
to attempt to dispute this matter with man or
fool. Some things lose c%lcarness by being dis
ttirbed-all anXioms are such. Are the vague
and misty conjcctures of Buckeye lawyers to
outweigh the letter of the constitution and pure
reason! 1t was a one sided affair, gotten up by
the mobiles; they presented, tried, and acquitted
themselves.
lfany man or set Of men may abate by yio-
lence what he conceives to be a nuisance-what
or who can stand =! This reminds us of the
quack who with red hot iron converted all his
patients sore into burns-hc could cure burns
The Rebels on the 18th said they were ac-
ting without Iaw-lhe long cared jury of acquit-
tai say they acted with law-which lie? We
suppose we shall now hear no more of bitter and
relentless Remuneration Of Andrew Jackson, for
overriding the laws to save New Orleans. The
one was fighting an enemy the Lexingtonians
a (rlend, jackson fought one against a thou
sand-the Lexingtonians a thousand against one!
If that one were ~sick-would not the world
be lost in admiration? True 1mrican.

A noble-hearted Kentuckian in an interior town of
Kentucky, who has long supported our paper, occa-
sionally sends us a word of greeting. In a letter dat
ed October %, he communicates several interesting
particulars. He says:
"Some of your subscribers seem inclined to patron
ize the True American, as it is published in our own
State, but several again say they must continue to take
the Herald.
" A | informed you, l thought the proceedings at
Lexington would increase {. NJ, Clay's subscription
list here. 1t is even so his list since the r~esuscita-
ton of the True American is more than trebled.
ellis appeal is generally well received and spoken
of as an independent, able production. have no idea
that his list of subscribers here would have been in
twelve months what it now is, if it had not been for the
removal of his press.
81 have still more to tell you. -, an old
citizen here, on the Goth inst, emanci2ated his twelve
slaves. understand he had made provision by will
for their emancipation long since, but learning that
his children or heirs would, after his decease, attempt
to prove him incompetent to make a will, he said he
could not die with clear conscience without doing
his duty.
"Also, at the a time, my friend Wv
emancipated his eight slaves, making twenty slaves
emancipated here that day. The time must come
when such acts will be appreciated-C Cincinnati Her.

A New I%nlpOSture.

A fresh plate-digger, translator, and prophet.
has arisen in the West. A lot of brass plates,
bearing marks of antiquity, have recently been
brought to light in Burlington, Wisconsin. It
appears that a certain man who has for some
past believed himself inspired, had it reveal
ed to him, that by digging under a certain tree
he would find a vessel containing plates with in
scriptlons relating to the aborigines of the coun-
try He accordingly selected three of his neigh
bors to dig in the appointed place, who, (asthey
affrm) after carefully examining the ground, to
be sure that it had not been disturbed, dug to
the depth of several feet, and found at last the
said vessel, which, after being exposed to the
air, crumbled to pieces, exposing three plates of
brass covered with characters, of the meaning
of which they were entirely ignorant, but which
the prophet has since translated. The language.
from the translation, purPorts to be that of a
King or Chief describing the destruction of his
WHOLE people and the places where they perish
ed. Several persons have been to see the proph-
ct, and many of them after seeing the plates,
believe them genuine. Whether this will resolve
itself into Mormonism, or become the basis Ct ii
new sect, is matter Of speculation. In either
case, it will find adheYeDts,

The Ballot Box.

There is no spot on earth more sacred and where we
need the guidance of heaven more than at the ballot
box. 1t is there we create and uncreate-kill and make
alive. We are there clothed with power almost divine;
the destiny of a whole nation depends upon a single
act which is there performed; our christianity-our lib
critics and virtues cluster around that hallowed spot
yet how few understand this or act as though God had
any thing to do with politics. The man who prays for
good rulers, but regards politics as having nothing to
do with religion, and goes to the ballot box unmindful
ofGod and his prayers, gives fearful evidence that he
is not honest. There is the place for men to show
their real character without disguise or concealment.
All we ask of any one, is, to be honest in politics,
and 90 to the ballot box like an honest man and Il
Christian. If you believe in a God, don't pray to Him
one moment and insult him the next by voting contra
ry to your prayer. If you have any religion worth
cherishing, carry it with you to the ballot box as well
as elsewhere, and not attempt to be a Christian in
morals and an inidel in politics. If you find that you
have been acting a part that you cannot longer hon
estly sustain, abandon it at once and not act on the
principle that you must support the men the party nom
mate, regardless of their moral character, and vote
with a party to which you have long been attached,
right Or wrong. The ballot box is designed as the
great l~eveler-the rich and the poor should there eX-
ercise equal power, and when our nation is honest
there, every one will be protected in his rights, and
the slave become a man.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1845-11-20

We call upon Shareholders to look upon this
picture, practically. Weigh on one side eman-
cipation, its certain advantages and its safety
on the other, slavery its dangers-its turmoils-
and then say if we are mad when we ask you in
all good feeling to carry out our system.
If they are however bent on their melancholy
and blind devotion to slavery-they have but to
open their eyes and see long lives oftumult-in-
sult-angry Observation-Disclosures and running
away ofslayes--agitaticn, in strife Of mobs sup
pressing papers-imprisoned citizons-murder-
ed patriots, bruken constitutions-lost liberties
then at last civil ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
and death. We pray you, my eountrymen, not
to deceive Yourselves be assured that though
you may carry the victory over the True Amer
lean, and an hundred other such papers, your
work is but Just begun. The world is your fee,
and truth, religion and justice its ally. AS sure
as God rules omnipotent in the Heavens, you
will fall at last, and bitter indeed will be the
end.
The great objection against my plan seems
to be that colonization is not annexed to it.
Now if colonization is agreeable to the mass Of
citizens, and found practicable, we say, amen.
We do not object to CoIonization.-We are for
emancipation at all events. We are for anything
but slavery Give us liberty and take all things
else. We are a life member of the coloni cation
socjety-we have paid our twenty dollars; I'M
til our defamcrs show their works let them be
dumb! We arc for colonization as a means Of
Christianizing Africa. We do not honestly re-
gard it as a remedy for slavery. We believe the
obstacle to liberty is the pecuniary loss from e.
marcipation-does colonization add to this loss
Then how can it aid the cause? We put it
thus, Suppose we were TO say that we would
not 90 fer emancipation unless ]. J. Aston should
give us a legacy of a million Of dollars at his
death. The impossibility ofsuch an event would
readily show The a%bsurdity Of our conditions
yet does any one suppose US SO silly as to re-
fuse such a legacy? Not at all.
We say then to colonizationists, come on; aid
us first to liberatc and we will aid you to emf
CRATE Let US not differ, but unitc in the same
cause. Let the end Of all be the same-the sal
walton of our county, and the freedom and chris
%tianity Of the world.

Atlantic and Pacific

A company, consisting Of Belgian, French
and English capitalists, is said to have been
formed, in conjunction with the Minister of For
eign Affairs of Nicaragua, to make a canal to-
unite the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. As the
lake of Nicaragua and a n%avigable river are on
the proposed line of canal, the expense is esti-
mated only at the very moderate sum of fifty
millions of francs, or 62, OOO, 900 British mon
ey. Already three committees are constituted,
and will assemble soon at Brussels, to concert
the mode of commencing operations. The
French committee is composed of M. NJ. Ga
celia, and Michel Chevalier, engineers, and of
NJ. Romieu, perfect of the department of Haute
Marine.

Texas Bonds, Ohio.

The Galveston Civilian thus speaks of the Texian
Bonds that have been issued:
"TeXas has at present no mode Of paying either
principal or interest of this species of paper credit. 1t
is not even receivable for public lands. Il the United
States Government hereafter chooses to redeem this paper
at par and take Our lands, Texas will probably offer no
objection but if Texas is to make payment, she will
possibly have some regard for the law of equivalents,
and may refuse or be unable to pay ten or fifteen mill
ions of dollars in specie, for that which neither realized
to her nor cost the holders one third of that sum-"
On this, the Courier & Enquirer remarks;
"The Civilian adds, that the prospect of redemption
of Texas money at par is "neither immediate nor
clear" Unless, therefore, our Government take some
precautions against it, if this statement accords with
public opinion, Texas is likely to enter the Union I'M
der the banner of reputation. We take it for granted,
however, that in no event will this be allowed to occur"
The Galveston man condescends to have our Gov
eminent pay the debt of Texas, if we insist OH it, and
will let us have lands therefor. He frankly states the
amount of Bonds at "ten or fifteen millions of doHdrs,'
[such u fraction as five millions is not of much conse-
%quenccI which, if ace don't pay, Texas will in a good
part r~epudiate. She isn't particular about it. But no,
says the Courier, Reputation is horrible. 1t must, in
no event occur-that is, Uncle Sam must shoulder the
debt Play out your game, gentlemen When you
are through the People have a word to s~ay.-TTbtne.
