ASSEMBLY, CANDfDATEs

TuB MEMBER OF TIE WESTERN DISTRICT
THOMAS SLADE, ESQ, of Wheatland was
nominated for the Legislature from the Western
District of this County.
This is an excellent nomination. and will be
we'll supported At the polls. There is not the least
question or doubt about his election. There is
some feeling in the western part of that District
on account Of fanced interest in the Fox River
Railroad, and while those in the eastern part care
nothing about that issue, Mr. Slade will satisfy
the most particular among those who feel any in
terest in it.
1HE CANDIDATE FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT.
C. l.. SuoLEs, of tins city, was nominated for
reelection. Tits but just Mr. Sholcs TO say that
he WAS absent from the city when this nomination
wA' made, and thar he neither sought or desired
it, twas the free offering of the Convention and
we doubt not will prove acceptable TO the party of
the District. The cause of real true democracy.
and We may add, of correct sentiments generally,
has no truer friend both practically and thcorcti-
cAIlF, than Mr.. Shoes, and as the friends of such
sentiments are in the majority in this district, we

TERRIBLE AFFATEt-JOTEN LACE SHOT
DEAD--A WOMAN,S REVENGE.

The whole community was shocked at an early
hour Yesterday forenoon, by the report that John
Lace man we'll known for the last ten wears in
this city had been deliberately shot in the street
The facts, as near as they can be gathered from a
thousand rumOrS, rs follows
The name of the murlcrcsS is ANN WHEELER.
Rumor speaks of an undue degree of intimacy
having existed between her and the deceased
She has lately complained of his having abused
her She wrote TO him one or more notes, or
rather letters OF remonstranCc. One of these
Lace read in public place to a number of listen
crs. Tuesday night the fact came to her ears. and
apparently confirmed the intention which she had
long entertained. Yesterday morning she met
Lace on Wisconsin St. between Main and Water
SITS. She then asked him quietly ifhc would mar.
ry hcr-a question frequently repeated by her
within few weeks. He gave no reply but brush
cd past her, showing her one side with his elbow.
She then left him-and he walked down Wiscon-
sin street, stopping with two others to examine
some pictures in the windows of HulPs book
store. She 1t seems, turned into the alley, cock
ed and adjusted pistol and followed down the
street after him, and as she passed him, placed
the muzzlc of the weapon at the back of his neck
and fired. The ball took effect in the spinal mar
row, killing him instantly.
She Immediately dropped the pistol and did
not stir from the spot, until Deputy Sheriff Page
coming mp arrested her know what | have
done-I meant to do it." A large dirk knife was
found upon her person. with which she said she
calculated to have killed him if the pistol failed.
ADDITIONAL PARTICULARs.-Thc deceased

She was small in stature, rather pointed features
and went neatly dressed. She was frequently in
the street, and no one would dream by observation
that she was of character TO illustrate the words
of the poet
Shell hath no fury like scorned."
She purchased the dirk the dav before AT n
hardware store. The pistol was double barrell-
ed one, and one retained the loading the first one
having proved efectual.
She talks calmly of the affair-expresses no re- /

The Hale storm a: EIkhorn.

Mr.. CLEMENT, D-m Sir AS it may afford
your Free Soil readers some pleasure to know
that the is prospecting in the interior, take
the liberty of reporting our Hale mass meeting
and the effects thereof. Tuesday was Il clear cold
day. The going was very bad, and the hunkcrs
had busily circulated the report that Mr.. Hale
had no thought of coming into this state much
less the village of Elkhorn. Notwithstanding all
these little discouragemcnts, at two o'clock p. NJ.
there was an influx of men, women, Children hor-
scs, and vehicles of every description, such the
Coolest inhabitant had never before Witnessed
The court house was soonr crowded to the over
flowing with ladies. A rude platform was hastily
constructed out of doors, which at once became the
nucleus of q crowd of cXpectant men. The pcO-
pie were still streaming in from the country by the
hundred wagon loads, when Mr.. Durkec call
to the stand TO occupy the short time before Mr..
Hale arrived; he was treating the principles which
influenced the various parties in mastery man
ncr, as the carriages which contained Mr.. Hale
and escort appeared in sight. A CLEAN of pleas
urc appeared in the eyes of every friend of free
dom, as the joyful shouts of greeting rent the Au-
tumn air, And the glad excitement seemed con-
tagou$, for the old hunkcrs, though they after
wards denied it, followed the promptngs of their
better natures, unconsciousv raised their hats and
huzzacd loud welcome to the champion of lib
erty. Oh, it was proud day for the Free De
mocracy; day that will be remembered by many
with agreeable emotions.
Mr.. Hale occupied the attention of the multi
tudc from half past three till sun down, vet not
one of the vast audience were weary. Ladies
fairly purple with cold, hcroicaIly stood in the
open air, unwilling to lose a single word and men
forgot the discomfort of the body in the enjoyment
of the heart. The enthusiasm of the audience
was unboundcd. The meeting closed with nine
rs hearty cheers as ever wcllcd from the souls of
an approaching audience of four thousand peo-
pie.
Since the meeting, the Free Democratic party
have had continued acccs>ions; not only single
individuals, but whole families, ncighborhoods
and school districts have been converted. 1t is adj
mittcd by the opposite parties that the Free Dem
ocratic majority at the ensuing election, will far
exceed that of any previous one. Everything
wears a most encouraging aspect, and the success
of the ticket is certain. yours in haste,

We never did think, and do not now, that party
attachments should induce voters to elevate incom-
petent men TO office but when the party TO which
men profess TO be attached, put forward unobjec-
tonable candidates, they ought to receive the uni
ted vote of the party. The defeat of incompetent
men will not imply any weakness of the principle,
but the defeat of good man cannot be attributed
to any thing else therefore, if we desire that our
principles should be understood as clearly in the
ascendant in this county, we must not let any good
candidate who represents them, be defeated
In saying this much then, we are asking from
the Free Democracy united vote for their present
county ticket, for say in all candor, and think
it neither or will be denied, that every man on
it i, excelently well qualified for the duties propo-
sed is irreproachablc in a moral point of view and
II firm adhcrent of the principles involved. We
cannot make any distinctions single out any
one for commentator, where all occupy common
position of merit We say again, all are excellent
men, all are excellent democrats all are excellent
candidates, and the Free Democracy owe il TO them
selves as men, and as party, to give them all a
cordial and united support. Such support will,
W. think, secure their triumphant success, for which
result under all the circumstances, We feel We may
look with confidence.

Another Collision on Lake Eric.

We nre informed by Mr.. S. T. SIadc, who was
passenger on the Ocean, that that Steamer was
run into Friday morning last, at about two
o'clock, by Brig, off Long Point, within half a
mile where the Atlantic went down. The night was
beautiful and bright starlight. The Brig struck
the Steamer with all her canvass on, on the fore
part of the larbo ard wheel-housc, and stove her
completely in, unahipping the shaft and breaking
the crank in three or four places. The force of
the blow carccncd the Steamer over upon one side
The crash of the light work of the boat made a
Il terrible noise in contrast with the silence of the
peaceful slecpcrs who occupied her sides. The
passengers panic stricken and alarmed, as well
they might be, ran screaming and frantic to the
deck. Ladies forgot to dress themselves. and
some for the first time bcthought their PRAYERS.
One Dutchman fell to hi. knees, and after throw
ing out few CALCULATIONS in the best Enqlish he
could afford, regretted that his prayer would
have no more effect on account of his not being
able to talk better English. The Brig immedi-
ately changed her course and kept on, without
caring whether the Steamer sank or swan. The
The Steamer came to anchor being entirely dis
ablcd and in the morning Il Schooner came to
her relief and went into Erie where they Telc-
graphcd to Buffalo, and in the afternoon of the
next day, the May Flower came 10 her relief and
lowed her back TO Buffalo If the owners of
these steamers don't make the owners of that Brig
sweat, they won't discharge their duty to the pub
lie. If a Brig which can be seen three or four
miles off in II starlight night, can't keep clear of
a steamer which can be seen five or six miles off,
the fact ought to be known for the safety of the

THROWING AWAY VOTES

A great many people in their anxiety to " do
about right" are very fearful (if we may take
their own words,) of throwing away their votes
These consistent souls are not afraid of throwing
away their votes in voting for the Wing or Hun
ker ticket, although they are positively certain
that the candidates of one or the other. and in
some cases of both of the parties, las in this
county and district are sure TO be defeated
But if you insist upon their voting for Hale and
Julian whom they are willing to admit are the on
~ true opponents of their sentiments, they tell
you they would do So it were not for {" throwing
away their votes" The Democratic Party in
Vermont throw away their votes every year-and
the Wing Party in New Hampshire does the same
thing every year. Yet these people are not singled
out as BedlamiteS, because they thus persist in
throwing away their votes every year. And how
long will men of sense make fools of themselves
by voting for men whose principles and policy
and Platforms do not suit them, on the silly plea
that they do not wish to throw away their votes.
The fact is, if the men of the nation who saw
they would like to have the principles of Freedom
succeed, should just throw their votes for the
Candidate who represents the Freedom prnci-
pie, John p. Hale would be the next President
of the United States As it is, the granny politi-
clan of the Slavery party will be powerful enough
to induce nearly half the voters of the country to
throw away their votes in attempting to elect
Scott or Pierce. While those who vote for Hale
will have the satisfaction of knowing that they
have not thrown away their votes but registered
them in the great Ledger of justice, where they
will be found credited when the balance sheet for
all men shall be struck
