Secretary Of state.

We congratulate the Wings of Northern
Ohio, upon obtaining the nomination of Earl
Bill, of Erie county, for the important Office of
Secretary of State: This gentleman is anpabIe
and talented man, and is eminently qualified
to ell the post for which he is nominated. He
is emphaticly one of the people, having risen
to his present high standing by his own ex-
ertions and persevering will. A fewyears ago
he was an humble mechanic, and by industry,
strict integrity and good conduct, he has, step
by step. reached his present standing, as one
Of the most able and sound men in Northern
Ohio. Last winter he was known as one Of
the mos: hard working members, in the Ohio
Legislature, and exerted a greater influences
probably. than any other member in that bo-
dy. The masses in this part of the State owe
him a rousing vote.

A Brisk Campaign,

= We learn from the Toledo Blade, whose ed
itor was delegate to the convention, that the
Wing nominees for State officers, as soon as
the busy season is over, will take the stump,
and give our opponents battle. 1t will go hard
with US, ere we are beaten, with such men as
Vinton and Eckley. We ask our friends ev-
cry where to spare no exertion necessary to
secure the triumph of our principles. Let the
campaign open briskly. 1'5

A few weeks since the cotton lords at
Fall River, Massachusetts, combined to-.
gcther to turn the screw little tighter,
by reducing the wages Of the operatives.
Many Of the workmen and women oppos.
ed this reduction of their wages and re:
fused to work. BY the last accounts we
perceive that capital has conquered labor,
and that those who turned out have been
compelled to resume their work at the re-
duced prices, and the owners are chuck

fully does he remove the body into the
hat, and assisting the old squaw, ndsap.
plying her with food, he hastcns away
from the spot.
The daylight was just breaking when
the Indian again made his appearance,
accompanied by eight others. Again the
body was inspected, the cid squaw was
questioned, and the appearance Of the
murderer so impressed on their minds that
one and all were satisfied, they could re-
cognize him without trouble. His foot
steps, however, were examined and noted.
The lndian was consigned to his lowly
bed, the old squaw removed, and to all
appearances the affair was ended.
Not so, however, was the case. The
Indian who first discovered the deed had
silently followed the trail to where the
survey had been made, and then to the
nearest settlement, where, in his broken
English, he managed to gain information
that the head Of the party had gone to y.
York, and that he had a rifle along with
him purchased from an Indian, and that
his name was Shombcrg. With this in
formation, he rejoined the tribe.
In less than week after, various par
ties of strange Indians were noticed in
the streets of New York. Who they
were, whence they came, or why, none
could tell. Their faces were painted
black-al were fully armed, and might
be seen day by day prowling, now in de-
tached parties, now singly through every
street.
At length, Shomberg was seen, instant
! ly recognized and followed. His resi-
dence discovered, day by day, and night
by night, red skin might be seen either
watching his residence, or dogging his
steps. Twice did they attempt his life,
but were foiled each time: Shomberg,
however, saw enough to satisfy him that
he was "doomcd." For several days he
did not stir out; but still from his win.
dow he could always see an Indian some.
where.
His life grew burthcnsome. He re-
solved to leave the country; but instead
of sailing from New York, he was oblig.
ed to 60 to Montreal Taking his pre-
caution 10 find a party bound to the same
place, he set sail for Lake Champlain:
Such, however, was not the case. The
foes were on his track; their light canoes
were in pursuit; but still he gained on
them. But Indian instinct was not a
fault at Albany; they heard of him, anc
where he had gone.
Some days after he had been in Mon
trcal, he was seated in the cabin of the
vessel about to sail for England, when tn,
captain told him some Indians were inqui
ing for him and wanting to see him.
"Tell thcm, for Gods sake, that an
not here" was his reply, and from tina
moment he left the cabin.
The sails were losened to the wind, til,
vessel is at last under weigh, the indians
in pursuit. Having passed the ship in tn,
dark, down the mighty St. Lawrence, d.
they now glide, certain almost of thei
