displaying her jowelry to the best advantage.
I'm the evening the man returned To his hotel
alone, sending the horse and chaise to the livery
stable ut which they were owned. The sama
night, at ABOUT u o'clock, he informed two pc
lice officers that girl had robbed him Of 5000
mud offered them 800 If they would arrest her.
Inciled by the reward. they made diligent search.
but without avail The next morning, the stran-
ger, pretence of seeking for the girl, left tho

posed that he murdered the girl for her
iewclry. as mono of it was found upon her person
She was in feeble health and is said to have been

cate him in the affair; on the contrary. he was
provided with sufficient evidence to place him

deraton as to who will compose the moro public

On tho other hand, it seems to BIO generally con.

by Mrs Jessie Benton Fremont taking the head Of it,
who is conceded to be one of the first women of the
nation in her ability, her purity, and we may add,
her love of freedom and free principles. Here is O
grand attention, and we commend it especially

r. s. Lowell, ESQ.

This is a name which needs no formal introduction
to the people Of this section of the counry-nor in
doed to the older residents generally of the state who
recollect it in connection with honorable and respon
sible trusts conded by tie constituency Of the old
county of Racine. Mr.. Lowell has always been an
active democrat and in 1S4S remained firm in his de-
votion to tho democratic principle and Refused to
bolt under the leadership of Cass to assist in prop
agatng slavery. In 1852 with thousands of others
he accepted Pierce as fnality" for the troubles
of the times and assisted in his success But unlike
many others he supported Pierce from honest and
patriotic motives conhdng in his pledges and that
of the platform on which he was nominated. In oil
the active political shiftings and turnngs Of the past
few years by which the political bed fellows Of one
night found themselves opponents the next day, II
has been Mr.. Lovell's luck to preserve on oil hands
an entire confidence in his purity of motive and po-
litical integrity Very naturally under such crcum
stances, Mr.. Lowell breaks without hesitation frem
his late political associates and leaps boldly to the
republican platform the advocate Of its principles
and candidates Atthe Fremont ratification on Mon
day evening in a few well.tmed remarks Mr.. Lowell
announced himself enlisted in the cause and rea
dy for the labor of the campaign.
We congratulate the cause on an accession of sc
much practical value to it-for we doubt whether
any other one individual in this part of the state
ries with him much strength rs Mr. L.; and we
congratulate him on taking position in which his
real democratic instincts and generous feelings
find their legitimate action and havo full scope.
This. of course is only ono of many similar cases
and mention itmore from its significance illus
trang the present position Of that class and charac
ter of men, .. 1s cv.,.-. s,s.. . /.
