The Chicago Slave Case.

From the Chicago Tribune of the 9Th, we
learn that the hearing of the case of Johnson, ar
rested in that city as fugitive slave was brought
to close on the 9th, and at two o'clock Conmis-
sioner Meeker, before whom the case was pend
ing, proceeded to give his decision, which occu-
pied more than an hour in the delivery. The
following were the material points decided:
|. That the record was invalid because the
testimony of the witnesses was not set out there
IN, the commissioner stating that IN his opinion
II was the intention of Congress to authorize the
Judges of the State Courts merely to make a
record in the nature of deposition, and not in
the nature Of Judicial proceeding.

Swindling---Wa to Travel

We copy the following from the Buffalo Com
mercial Advertiser, because We know 1t to be
true a brother Of ours happened 10 be IN the
train at Rochester when the swindlc was discov-
cred. our advice to travellers is to patonize
lines which employ and recognize regular and re-
spousble agents only, and to purchase tickets Of
nobody bat such agents. For Western travel
the Ogdensburgh route is now the surest and
best
hlhumra Sirin4ler.-l yesterday witnessed
most shameful robbery committed upon Mrs Muir
ray, OF New York. Mr.. Murray, now IN LOUIS
VILE, Ky, sent TO his wife IN New York money
sufficient to pay her cabin passage from New
ork 10 Louisville. To avoid Inconvenience she
purchased Of Mr. Osborn, IN New York,
through first class passage ticket, paving him
SO, which Is about ! more than the aggregate
Of each first class passage ticket on the respec-
tive routes including meals. Mrs NJ. was well
accommodated on the steamer Isaac Newton, be-
tween New York and Albany and at the de-
pot IN Albany was told she must change her
ticket and was directed to an Office for that pur
pose. She gave up the original ticket and re-
ceNed in exchange a check on the railroad office
/ for first class tickets to Buffalo and another tick
ct, folded AMI enclosed IN an envelope, which she
dad not open tlll about at Rochester, when she
discovered tina she had been furnished with tick
ct which provided for Storage passage only,
examined the ticket aud found 1t signed {" Eias
Osborne,' and consigned to Otis Allen, agent"
Buffalo
The Disappointment and grief Of the lady on
the discovery that she had been robbed of her pas
sage ticket was among strangers, alone, with a
feeble infant, without money, and no better pros
pect than TO suder the exposure of a deck pas
sage, excited the sympathy OF the passengers
who contributed suffcien, for the repurchase Of
her cabin passage from Buffalo.

The St Louis Organ and Reyeille tells of
little boy who cut off his sisters nose. The
boy had attended the exhibition of McAllister.
the Magician, and saw him cut the nose off one
the audience, and then place it on again as nat
ural as life" This made an astonishing impress
sion on the boys mind, and he requested his sis
ter To let HIM try the experiment ON her nose
she consented, and he got big carving knife
and cut II of; his sisters screams soon brought
persons to the spot and there they found the boy
trying to put the nose on his sisters face again.
Fears are entertained that the little grl will not
live.

Train, employed in drawing fencing stuff, also
left Milton for the North, supposing that the

were pissed disappearing the law of no prohib-

he endorsed the doctrines OF the resolution.
convention OF the same party was held at Har-

for Judges, at which the Buchanan men arsin
beat the Castles. But who should be at Tins
Convention making speeches, but the redoubta-
BILE DAVID WILMOr, late member of Congress
the WILMor PRovIso." We give the fol-
lowing extract from letter in the Tribune:
Harrisburg, Wednesday June IT.. The dele
gates from Philadelphia instructed for judge
Campbell, were admitted to their seats by large
majority.
The Lancaster delegates were then taken up.
David Wilmot moved to admit the Frazer
Cas- delegates.
Mr. Cessna moved to amend so as to admit
the Buchanan delegates. The subject was dis
cussed until adjournment
At the afternoon session, Mr.. Amwake resum-
ed the argument in favor of the admission of the
James NJ, Reynolds replied, advocating the
admission of the other set.
David Wilmot addressed the Convention a.
gainst the admission of the Buchanan delegates,
and entered into detail of the difficulty, attrib-
uting the whole discord in the party at this time
to Mr. Buchanan and his schemes for personal ag-
grandlzement
Air. Whsllon followed on the other side.
Col 5 w. Black then in a witty speech repli-
ed to Mr.. Wllmot.
/ Mr. Wimot again spoke and declared he
would support the Reading nominations for Gov
ernor and Canal Commissioner, although he could
not give his adhesion to all the resolutions pas
sed. The vote was then taken and the Foney
or Ant-Frazer, lCassl Delegates were admitted
] by - 10 -. The Convention then adjourned
tlll 5 o'clock.
We presume that Mr.. Wilmot is in favor OF
Cass for President and that he has gone back
into the old line party. Certainly If he can sup
port the Gubernatoral candidate, he need have
no hesitation in supporting Cas-. This is a
changing world
