We find in the Brownston. Ia.) Dem

count of some most disgraceful pro-
ceedings:
LYNCH LAw.--On the night OF the Sd

disguised, entered the house Of Zebadee
Rush, took him from his bed in full
bloomer, and after drawing him naked,
save his shirt, through the bushes and
briers by the heels two or three hundred
yards, and administered full dose Of
hickory timber tea, with request that
he should leave the country in ten days.
or the dose would be repeated, he was
released. Mr. Rush's offence was that
of harboring his son, James Madison
Rush, whom they a short time before
ynched, The most unkind cut of all
was, that day or two before this last
lynching took place. young Rush fell
out with his father and gave him severe
castigatioE. Old Mr.. Rush is an old cit
izen, sober man, and has considerable
properly.
A man in the western part of the
county. suspected of knowing who were
engaged in the affair of lynching J. NJ.
Rush, was taken from his house and
publicly ducked until life appeared to
be extinct, but he is now recovering.
> This mob-higher law authority should
be checked. 1t is disgraceful 10 those
engaged in it. and TO the country. 1t
can, under no circumstances. be justi-
fed. If our laws are deficient. lie: them
be made efficient. There is no security
in any country where the laws are not
respected and passion goes unbridled.
We sincerely hope we may not be
panied TO record any more cases so dis
graceful, and so much at war with the
principles of good society.

reports in circulation relative to numer-

Mass CONVENTION PosTPoNED.-
The Wing State Central Committee
have postponed the Mass Ratification
meeting, which had been called al
Columbus on the 22d. This was
caused by the exaggerated report OF
cholsra in that city, which had in
duced large delegations from differ
ent counties TO abandon the trip
The State Convention was held on
the 2lst wednesday, as called. i.
is probable that some time has been
agreed upon by that Convention for
holding a Mass Ratification meet
ing hereafter.
The fact that the Mass Conven-
ton was postponed caused several
Wings from this county to abandon
the trip who otherwise would have
been present. But when such a
Convention shall be called, GalIia
county will be there in good num-
bers and in the right spirit.

How is this country 10 compets
with the nations Of Europe in manu-
facturesi Hear Mr.. Stevens again:
have heard Of but two modes
suggested to enable the manulactur-
ers Of this country to compete with
Europe. The one is, to lay duty
on foreign importations, equal TO the
difference between the cost of the
article in Europe, and the cost OF the
same article here. The other is, to
reduce the price Of American labor
to the average price Of labor in El-
rope.
Certainly, II practicable, either
mode would effect the object.
The duty, TO be protective, should
be equal TO the difference Of ths
wages Of labor in the two countries,
or we can never long sustain our
establishments. That would give
liberal wages, and all the comforts of
life TO our laboring classes. This IS
the Wing policy. The other mode,
advocated by able statesmen in the
South as well as in the North, whose
standard>bearer is General Pierce, is
to strike off from the price paid
American operatives the difference
between what they now receive and
what is paid in Europe to similar
laborers. Let US for a moment look
at its effect. The common price
paid laborers in Europe is one shh-
ling sterling a day, and they find
themselves. see by an address OF
large operator, published in 1851,
that he pays from Sd. to Is. BY a
later publication, ! find wages on
the Continent are eight cents. In
order to get cheap labor, they em-
ploy women as we'll as men in the
most laborious work. According to
the report OF a committee of Parlia-
ment, women are employed IN
mining coal several hundred feet
under ground. They were found
harnessed into cars. hauling heavy
loads from the long drifts to the shaft.
In consequence OF these low prices,
the laboring classes have scarcely
enough to feed and clothe them.
They live on poor fare, are meanIy
clad, and have nothing to bestow on
the education of their children
They grow up IN Ignorance, to re-
main hewers oi wood and drawers
OF water, from generation to genera
ton. This may be borne where the
people have no voice in the Govern
ment. This is the Democratic
scheme. For my part. ! prefer the
protective policy, which gives to
laborers the dignity and the feelings
Of independent freemen, and enables
them to fl their children to share in
the government OF The Republic; let
those who wish to degrade labor
choose the other.

The Will Of Mr.. Clay, drawn by
his own hand, and dated July 10Th,
1851, was admitted to probate at
Lexington, on Monday last. One
or two OF its features are of interest,
especially the one having reference
to his slaves.
By that clause, il is provided that
the children Of his slaves born after
the first Of January, 1850, are TO be
liberated and sent to Liberia, the
males when they shall have arrived
at the age OF %, and the females at
the age OF %; that the three years
Of their earnings prior TO the emanci-
patton are 10 be reserved for their
benefit, for the purpose of fitting
them out for their new homes; and
that prior TO their emancipation and
removal they are to be taught to
read, write and cipher. The slaves
in being before the lst January, 1850,
are bequeathed 10 his family.
OF the 35 slaves owned by Mr..
Clay, Abraham, the groomsman, is
the oldest, being near sixty. Adams,
the gardener, is SIS years Of age.
Thornton. Mr.. CIay's body servant,
received from the hands OF his mas
ter his free papers, but never left
him, even after death, until the corpse
was placed in the tomb.
Ashland is left to Mrs. Clay for
her sole use and benefit during her
life; at her death it is to be sold and
the proceeds divided among his
children.
The following are the only specific
devises made by Mr.. Clay, outside Of
his family:
| give 10 my friend, DIR. B. w.
Dudley, the gold snuff. box presented
to me by D. Hunt, late of Washing
ton City.
| give to my friend. Henry T.
Duncan, my ring containing piece
OF the coffin OF General Washington.

left executrix. and the Hon. Thos. A.

provision that security shall not br
