FIRST SETTLEMENT OF OHIO.

The recent lecture of Judge Lane on the Morayian
Missions, calls up question of history, which has
recently been much discussed: Where was the first
settlement in Ohio? writer in the Marietta
papers speaking of those who were born first calls
Marietta the first settlement in Ohio and such also
is the popular opinion. Another writer in the
Columbus papers, insists that the Moravian settle
ments, on the Muskingum were the first Now
there is no doubt who the first born white child
in Ohio. That was Mary lIeckewider born nj the
Morayian Mission But was the Moravian Mission
at Salem, or Gardenhutten the first settlement of
OhioE We say no. The first settlement of Ohio
must mean, either the first place where homes or
stockades were erected, the first permanent settle
mem. The last we take to be the true meaning of
settlement. But the Moravian Mission was neither
Of these neither the first transient or the first
permanent settlement The first transient settle
ment was made by the French on the Maumee
Naudreuil, Governor Of Louisiana, (scc Perkins
Annals,) in l75l, mentions Fort Miami on the
naumee: The Forts named, were Duquesne,
(PlttsburSh) Sandusky, Miami ON the Maumee etc
The French posts were doubtless the first tran
silent settlement. The Moravian Missions Of Salem
and Gardenhutten, was only transient settlement
1t was broken up and the whites carried OF. Sub
sequently the Christian Indians also in great
measure destroyed bv lawlcss frOntiersmen By
1903 Tue transient settlements were all broken up
and Ohio was without Il settlement Then came. In

we should hear more dispute about places than per-

IL Sick Headache Remedy.--A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
10 the public, is attracting great attention, only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials TO
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by il, but also because
there are so great number Of people who are al
aicted with the distressing complaint for which
no medicine has before been made public. DR..
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy Of his s'rem-
edyn is physician in this city, in high standing,
with large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for avery common disease, which
has been long needed, has auractedthe attention
ofal sufferers from headache who have heard Of it..
From our own knowledge of Dr. Easman's char
acter and practice, we have doubt that the med
cine deserves the favor il receives and that it will
prove TO be great benefit to all who may give it
trial.-Lynn Neics, December %, 1853.

ABOLITION FALsEHooDs.- Among the stories
fabricated by the abolitonists is one that Co.
vernon Washburn sympathized with them in
their diabolical proceedings. No one, we pre-
sumo, credited the statement, though the Com
monwealth went so far as to intimate that his
Excellency came to Boston for the express pur
pose Of ordering off the State troops and inter
fering, in some unexplained way, with the in
vestigation going on before the commissioner.
The Governor, however, who visits the city on
executive business, and to attend anniversary
meetings has thought proper to give an EN-
phatic contradiction to the statement of the
leaders of the abolition riot. AT the banquet
of the Cadets on Wednesday evening, lie repu-
dated the assertion with indignant earnestness,
pronouncing the report of his sympathizing
with the disturbers of the peace, an absolute
and unqualified falsehood, in whatever form it
was uttered. He also paid high and de-
served compliment to the military for the part
they had taken in preserving the public peace
during the week, and thanked them heartily.
Another gross fabrication relates to Mr.. Lor.
ing, the u. s. Commissioner. 1t was said that
on entering the Law School lecture-room at
Cambridge he was Kissed by the students. 1t
appears that upon his entrance, some southern
students indiscreetly applauded him, whereup-
| on other students commenced Kissing the ap-
plauders, by way of rebuke, of course,
creton Of the latter. There may be half dozen
violent abotionists among thestudents, but out
Of their select clique, no one would think Of offer
| ing insult to Mr.. Loring by committing so un
| gentlemanly an act asthat referred Boston

INHERITED POLITICS.

Political prejudices are among the strongest
of all preiudices. They are generally inherited,
and like inherited diseases are hard to eradi-
cate. The child naturally learns from his ia.
ther, and amongst other things he learns his
fathers politics. He imbibes both his princi
pies and his prejudices. He takes them with
out question, and keeps them without doubt
He cannot remember when he took them up,
and they thus seem like part Of his own ma
ture. This is with child perfectly natural,
but with grown person inexcusable Inherited
politics are the politics Of large class. Where
there is one who on conviction renounces them,
there are dozen who with convictions against
them still keep them. 1t is pride, the pride
of opinion and consistency, coupled with a
reverential regard for their fathers memory,
that induces them to cling to what even they or
many Of them regard as error.
Now, no man has any more right to choose
his sons politics, THAT son being capable and
matured man, than he has to force wife, a
profession, or form Of religion on him. God
made both, and he made them separate. The
sons convictions, the sons mind and soul dc
not belong to the father. Each is responsible
for himself, and neither for the other. It otter
happens that the child is a superior man to the
father, both in natural gifts and in acquire
ments, and it would be absurd to say that sucf
child should have no opinion of his own.
That father who would make his child slave
is not 6t to bs father, and that child whs

p@ The Alexandra Gazette of yesterday,
thus expresses itself in relation to the course
of the President in the recent fugitive slave
case in Boston. We would be doing injus-
tice to our own feelings, if we did not ackowl-
edge promptly our appreciation of the manner
in which the President has exercised his ex-
ecutive duties in support of the laws, in the
recent fugitive slave case in Boston. He has
acted SO as to command the respect of all par

circumstances attending the rendition Of thefugi-
tive slave at Boston, are calculated materially
to dampen the satisfaction felt at the final tri-
umph of the law. To know that in city Of
this Union the law has to be supported by an
armed array of troops, is melancholy indeed.
To know that but for the military, the civil
authority, would in all probability, have been
powerless, is humiliating reflection to an
American citizen. We receive then, with salts
faction, the intelligence, that there is power to
sustain the laws, but with deep regret and in.
dignation, that corrupt and traitorous rebel.

THE SUPREMACY OF LAw.--The Boston Post
of Sd inst. has the following article.
The decision Of Commissioner Loring, on the
law and the facts in the fugitive slave case, re-
manded Burns to his claimant. There is not
in the minds of the community so much as a
doubt, that under thelaws Of Virginia, Anthony
Burns owed COL Suttle service; that he escaped
from that service, and that according to the
Constitution, to the bargain Massachusetts made
with her sister states, and to solemn obliga-
ton, it becomes aduty to deliver him up. This
was accordingly done. Officers according to
their oaths, executed the laws.
The manner in which they discharged their
duties, in the present excited state of the com.
munity, must command the appreciation Of
every good citizen. The arrangements were
so complete that no serious attempt at rescue
was made, and no blood was shed. The escort
was several times crowded upon, and insults

THE ELECTION YESTERDAY-THE
"KNOW NOTHINGs.o

The District of Columbia is neither Terri
tory nor a State. The citizens can vote only
in municipal elections. In proportion as the
circle Of their powers and privileges is crcum-
scribed, so is their interest in their local cleo
tions intensified. This was exempli6ed yester-
day. The election Of municipal officers for the
city of Washington came of, and all Of our citi-
zens were profoundly interested. Men, women,
and children, partook Of the prevailing enthu-
siasm.
We have witnessed presidential elections,
congressional and county elections, but we
have never seen more interest manifested than
on yesterday.
There was an element in the election about
which there was much of mystery The "know
nothings." About this secret society we are
not informed. Their policy seems to be silence
and secrecy. They win tell nothing about the
principles and rules of their organization.
They affect ignorance about everything. But
they seem to be banded together in a firm and
compact society. In the absence Of all confes-
sions from themselves, we are left to conjecture
their character and their principles. We would
not do them injustice; but, as they aspire to be
a power in the State, and as they refuse to
CRAFTY the general and the natural curiosity
that prevails in regard to them, they cannot
complain if we take up, consider, and briefly
comment on the objects generally ascribed to
them.
They are said to be native Americans in dis
guise, and bitter opponents of the Catholics.
They are said to be enemies of both foreigners
and Catholics. If SO, they are secret politi.
cal organization. They are more than that
they attempt union of church and State and
to make their organization more odious and
detestable, they make it q secret organization.
They have stolen upon US like "a thief in the
night"
Now, secret political organizations are abom-
innble, even in despotic government, but in a
country like ours, where freedom ofspeech, free
dom Of religion, and Of action are secured, they
are evils that should at once be cut up BY the
roots. These people will tell nothing. What
though they hatch treason2 What though
they incite revolution? What though they
allay themselves with abolitionism and inf
deity, and endeavor to make them the law
of the land? The good sense of the people
ought to frown them down. In the south they
can never succeed. They are one of the many
isms Of the day, and like all isms they are de.
testable. aa
This is the first time we have spoken Of this
society. We do so now, because we feel it tc
be our duty as journalists, here at the national
metropolis where these Know Nothings" seem
to be strongest, to come out and denounce them
If they are an honest party, let them like all
other honest societies spread their rules and
regulations before the public If not ashamed
of their objects let them make those objects
known. But enough Of them for the present
