LAWYERS ON KISSING.

The Providence Journal contains re-
port of the trial of John Donahue for an
assault with an attempt to kiss one Mary
German whom he alleged is his second
cousin. The Journal says that the evil
dence gave rise to some very interesting
questions of law especially to young men.
The counsel for Mrs. Gorman did not
contend that the usual proposal to kiss a
lady was an assault; but parties should,
before proceeding to eXtremities, ascer
tain beyond any reasonable doubt that
the lady would not be unaccommadating,
and especially should forbear such at,
tempts in the presence of a third party,
All men, especially young men, would be
justified in using reasonable diligence in
ascertaining the disposition the lady
under such circumstances, but he must
be careful not to press his suit after it be-
came apparent that his fondness was not
reciprocated. Burey, counsel for John
Donahue, did not fully concur with this
view of the law, but contended that the
transaction was all in good nature, as far
as John was concerned, that Mrs. German
was his second cousin, and there was no
intention Of committing an assault on his
part.
The Court found John guilty, and fin.
ed him one dollar and COSTS The fact
that Mrs. German was the second cousin
of John was not considered sufficient JUS
'i6cation for his persisting in the prose
cution of his desire. The Court gave Mt
opinions as to what would have beer
their decision ifthe parties had been frs
cousins, or if the kiss had been stolen be
fore the lady objected. Without mean
ing to commit ourselves fully on so i'm
portant question. we would inlimat,
the opinion that such state of fact
would be perfect Justification

Gen. TAYLOR in Canada.

The Kingston British Whig of Satur-
day thus speculates:
"It would appear by our Telegraphic
Report, that General Taylor has been G.
lected President of the United States Of
America. Prior to the election the hopes
of the Wing party were very strong, and
it is seen by the result that their hopes
were we'll founded. We hardly know
whether we should congratulate the coun-
Try on this elevation of Gen. Taylor or
not. He himself is an estimable man,
and his party is composed of nearly all
the wealth and intelligence of the Uniou;
but on the other hand, that party is, and
ever has been opposed to low Tariff
and the introduction of British goods.
The cry is Protection for native produc-
tions. Whereas Gen. Cass and the Dem
ocrats, although opponents in speech to
Great Britain and her interests, have al.
ways advocated low Tariff and Free
Trade. Thus while the Wings speak
the farest to Great Britain, and treat her
with the utmost courtesy, they close the
ports to her merchandise, and manutac'
lures; while the Democrats, furious in
denunciation, and threatening war every
instant. nevertheless freely admit anc
consume the commodities Of the nation
| they provoke"

The Mode Of EIoo1ing the President.

The Electors of President and Vice
President will meet in the capitals OF
their respective States on the 1st We'd
nesday of December next, being the 9th
day OF the month, and will proceed to
vote for President and Vice President.
which vote will be duly recorded. Copies
of the record will be made out, and au-
thenticated, and sent to Washington by
special messenger, theIe to be delivered
to Congress.
On the Cd Wednesday in February the
records of the votes will be opened in
the presence Of the two Houses, and the
result declared. General Taylor will, as
known, be declared to be the elected Pres
ident, and Millard Fillmore, Vice Presi-
dent. Messengers will then be despatched
to these gentlemen, informing them of
their election, aud asking them to attend
at Washington, 10 take the oaths Of Office
and enter upon their duties.
The term of Mr.. Polk will expire on
the 4th of March, and that is the day
fixed for the Inauguration of the new
President. But as the 4lh of March
comes on Sunday, the inauguration will
not take place until Monday, the 9Th. In

Pursuant toprevious notice, the Wings
of Bloom Township met, at the Buckeye
House. in Llhopols, on Thursday eve.
ming, November 10th. DR.. R. r. SHER'
WOOD was called to the Chair, and G.
A. FLEMING appointed Secretary.
The object of the meeting was the pre-
sentation ofthe Banner, prepared by the
Wing Ladies of Lithopolis, to be given
to either Liberty, Violet or Bloom Town
ship to animate them in the discharge oI
their duty at the late Presidential cleo
tion-the banner to be awarded to the
young Taylor men of that Township
which should give the largest increase
vote for General TAYLOR overthat of Gen
eral FoRD. And it having been ascer-
tained that Bloom Township had won the
Banner, it was presented to the young
men of that Township, by Miss E. Corr
MAN, as follows:
WmIGs OF BLOOM TOWNSHIP:
To inspire you, if possible, with more
ardent zeal for the noble cause, in which
YOU are enlisted, aud in token of their
sympathy & the deepinteresl they feel for
the success of this Cause and the Honor
and welfare of their beloved Country,
in behafof the Wing Ladies Of Lithopo-
lis aud in their name, present you with
this Banner. May it ever be borne aloit
triumphant, as truth must ever be!
In behaIfofthe young Wings of Bloom,
Mr.. ALFRED WILLIAMS responded as fol-
lows:
VINO LADIES OF LITHoPoLIs:
would return to you, on behalf ofthe
Wings of Bloom. their warmest thanks
and their uufeigned gratitude, for the gal
lantry, and generosity, which you have dis
played in getting up and offeringth this mag
aifcent Banner as a reward for their pa.
triotism, on the 7th, in aiding the promo
ton, to the chief magistracy OF our union
of one of the best and aoiSeSt of our citi
zens.
Words will fail to express the deligh
with which we see you taking so mucl
interest in the welfare ofour great repub
lie; and it may we'll be considered as {
sign of brighter day for her. History
affords many instances in which female
have shown themselves to be not in tht
least degree inferior to the opposite se'
in patriotism: and if such cases are no
frequent. it is entirely owing to the fact
that the peculiar circumstances in whlcl
they are generally placed, render such

and noble exertions recorded Of woma

and modern, and merely refer to one
