Senator wade.

The Portage County Wing thus speaks of
the Senator elected:
The result will be hailed with universal
acclamation by the Wings throughoutthe state
and Union. Almost every person in this re-
gion is personally acquainted with Judge
Wade, and all know him to be straight-out
steadfast Wing and nothing else" He was
the first and unanimous choice of the Wing
party and press on the Reserve, for the post
of Senator, and is, we believe, the first indi-
vidual ever elected to that Office from the
northern section of the State. The Wings in
the Legislature nobly performed their duty
by supporting him for station which he is
eminently qualified to fill with honor to himself
and his constituents.
Although Judge Wade was elected by the
aid of Freesoil party votes, and has always
been consistent advocate of the cause of free
dom, We be has never been identified with the
distinctive Freesoil organization. He did good
service for Gen. Taylor in 184s. and has
never yet deemed it necessary to step outside
of the whig rank to exemplify his devotion to
Freesoil
In the Senate, Judge Wade will heartily
CO. perate with William H. Seward, John
Davis, Solomon Foot and other Wing defen-
ders of the interest of freedom in that body,and
his imprisoned cloquence and effective style
of oratory will win for him reputation equal
to that enjoyed by the distinguished New
York Senator.
II is almost unnecessary to state that Judge
Wade is right on all the leading question which
divide the two great parties. The Wing
doctrine of Protection to Home Industry will
| find in him Jealous supporter, and we have
every assurance that he will never betray nor
surrender the rights or interest of the Great
West"

Congressional Franking PrlEeIege.

Some of the Senators who fob constructive
mileage are also infamous for their abuse of
the franking privilege. The Louisville Cour-
ier states that ton and half of matter, frank
ed by Senator BoorIand, of Arkansas, passed
through the Louisville Post Office within
three weeks The Journal thereupon says.
The Arkansas Senator committed one little
oversight After franking all his books. old
clothes, and other moveables from Washing
ton City to Little Rock he ought to have
franked himself. By crawling into the same
mail-bag with him at the same time, under
frank, suficieney of bread and cheese, he
might have got home without the expenditure
of any portion of his mileage.
We would suggest to the postmasters to
have the mail bags handled very carefully
There's no telling how many of them may
contain live Locofoco members of Congress-
who might be sadly damaged by rough hand
ling.

For subscription. Apair
7o5 3O5

This gives majority of 400 in favor of sub
scription, and is full as large as the most san
guins anticipated. II will be seen, that should
the vote of Sandusky townshipb be thrown out,
there would still be majority of SO in favor
ofsubscription. of We mention this to show that
the people of The country are as much inn
pressed with the importance of a rail road
through Sandusky county, as are the citizens
of Fremont And had the townships of Town,
shend and Woodville voted on this question,
and cast their entire strength against it, (about
800 votes,) there still would have been ma
jority of 100 for subscription.
Huron CoUNTY-The Huron Reflector says
1--WE have the satisfaction of announcing
this morning that the vote for subscription
of $4,000 TO the Stock of the Toledo, Nor
walk and Cleveland Railroad, by the five
Northern townships of this county, was car
ried yesterday by a majority of about 600.
The majority in Norwalk, is 492 in Lyme 90
in Wakeman 5. Ridge6eld we understand
has given small majority for subscription,
and in Townsend the vote is about even"
We learn that Russia township, in Lorain
county. gave respectable majority in favor
of subscribing $4,000 to our road; also. that
Camden township, in the same county. voted
IN favor ofsubscribing 1000 to the road
The townships of Clay and Harris. in otta-
wa county, alone failed to take the $4,000 ap-
portioned TO them, in our road.
Thus it will be seen that the inhabitants
along the line of the Toledo, Norwalk and
Cleveland Railroad, have every confidence in
it, and are satisfied of its importance to the
country through which it will pass. The
road will now be pushed forward without de-
lay, to completion.

Late California news.

ed at New York on the 22d, with San Fran
cisco dates to the 18th of Feb The Crescent
City brought $50 passengers. and half mill
lion in gold. The Ohio / so passengers and
$325,000 in gold.
There was much excitement on the Isthmus
occasioned by the murder of party of trav-
elers between Chagres and Panama. Nine OF
ten persons among them two women and
three children, we're murdered by the boats
crew while ascending the river. -Four persons,
all Chartagenians, had been arrested for the
crime
The Gold Bluffs excitement had consider
ably subsided. The reported rich silver mines
beyond the Sierra Nevado. like many of the
gold stories, appear to have been sheer hum
bug.
The winter has been one of remarkable dry
ness The Sacramento Transcript says the
weather for three months has been delightful,
and the attempt to get up rainy season has
been a total failure The entire fall of rain up
to Feb. 18th had been only about SIX inches.
The temperature had been like the closing
DAYS of May in the Atlantic States.
The Transcript states that the intelligence
from tie mining country is rather discourage
ing, not from an exhaustion of gold, but from
lack of water to wash it out The bulk Of
the miners had gone to the mines IN the
Northwest, 10 the tributaries Of lthe Klamath
River, on the western slop of the Cost range
The Transcript has number of "big lump"
and ''rich digging reports.
