HABEAs. CoRPus.-L. d. Vansandt,
magistrate in Addison township. a few
days since issued warrant for A.
CUsHrKe, Esq, to be brought before
him forthwith on the charge of profane
swearing. The constable subpenaeo
the witnesses and then started Tor the
violator of the law, whom ne found
comfortably seated with his family and
made known his business. Cushng did
not relish much the idea of being taken
40 far to be tried for such an offence,
and consequently demurred--he couldn't
ride horseback for he was afflicted with
a boil in tender place-not being ac-
customed to walking it was out of the
question to attempt that distance on
foot-being rather weak nerved he
couldn't stand the jolts of buggy,
and what was to be done the constable
could not tell. Cushing asked the Of
ficer to let him see the warrant, and
then requested him to step over to
Judge Nash's Office to see if the matter
could not be arranged here. In a few
moments after they left for the court
house where Cushing procured writ ol
bobaas oornus ond niacinO II in the
hands of the constable demanded to be
taken before Judge Nash forthwith,
who discharged the prisoner, the mag
istrate's warrant having charged him
with five distinct offences instead of on
and was otherwise invalid. Magistrates
must be careful to have their documents
correct before they proceed against law
yers, for they are hard customers tc
| handle.

CRoPs IN ILLINoIs.-The following
letter was published in the Cincinnati
Price Current of last week. 1t is dated
Macomb, Mcdonald county, Illinois,
Sept. I'd:
Mr.. Ep1roR:-we find ourselves in
the midst of one of the most destruc
tive drouths that we ever had in this re-
gion of country.
It remained seasonable up to the
middle of June, since which time we
have had no rain. Wheat and oats a
good average crop, hay grass about
two-thirds of crop, corn crop about
one-half average. Potatoes will not
more than yield the seed for the next
season. This, we think, will be cor
rect report for the following counties:
Hancock, Warren, Mercer, Schuyler,
Pike, Fulton and Knox; further than
this, we cannot say. Stock hogs are in
good order and a greater number than
usual; we had tolerable good supply
of old corn, and may safely calculate
that all hogs of suitable age and size
will be brought into market. In this
section of country our dependence fol
pasturage is alone upon the commons
and unless we have rain within the mex
twenty days, will have to commence
feeding. Vegetation is literally parched
and there cannot be any full crop o
grass.
But very little preparation is making
for seeding this fall, as the ground is 81
dry that it cannot be worked.
I Respectfully yours, DC.

Eone week from next Tuesda,

~One week from next Iuesoay,
the people will be called upon to elect
enc member of the Board of Public
Works, one Supreme Judge, one Con-
gressman for this district, one Clerk of
the Court, one Probate Judge, one Re-
corder, one Auditor, and one Commis-
sioner, and the question will naturally
present itself-who are the best men for
these stations. So far the Democrats
have made no selections, and to judge
of the names at the head Of our col
umns, there is little necessity for any
movement this fall on their part. They
have no material in fact to work upon
in this county. 1t is true Vance Is up
for Probate Judge, but dishonesty will
strike in and kill him before-the election
comes of. The honest man that is will
ling to vote for him is about as hard to
find in this community as Know No
thing.
The Wing candidates are mostly men
well known to the public, and for this
reason they require no more at our hands
than a simple reference to their names:
Hen. OSCAR F. MOORE, the candidate
for Congress, is one of the ablest men
in the State of Ohio. He has been
twice elected to the Legislature from
Scioto eounty-if there was anything
wrong about him would not the people
have found it out ere he received the
nomination for Congress?
Jos. DRoUILLARD, the nominee for
Clerk of the Court, is the present in
cumbent, and is well known as one ol
the most correct, systematic and eff
cient clerks in the State.
SAMUEL B. RArHBURE, the present
Judge of the Probate Court, is candi'
date for reelection. He has heretofore
served the people in different capacities
with credit and honor, and has little tC
contend against. There are few indi
viduals in this county that can be placed
in his station that will render as mucl
service and be as prompt in the dis
charge of all the duties of the Office.
SAMUEL JoLLEY, the nominee for Re
corder, is but little known except in the
upper part of the county. He is Just
the man for the place, and the only one
mentioned in connection with the Office
that is capable of making neat record
He is a splendid scribe and will make 6
faithful officer.
DAVID B. HEBARD, the nominee fol
Auditor, is the present incumbent, ant
is known as one of the most accurate
faithful and accommodating Auditors tt
be found in the State, while a more de
serving man can no where be found
He is decidedly the best Auditor W
have ever had.
JosEPHUs CHERIEeToN, the nomine
for Commissioner, is well known in thi
county as a gentleman well worthy c
the trust. He is an active and sterlin
business man, and we doubt not will rt
ceive the support of the people.
Our ticket is strong one and "
predict for it a triumphant election.
