their homes By Federal officcrs, and held
10 bail oreast into prison. the State could
give them no aid could not even investi-
gate the legality Of the seizure orimpriss
onmeut. as Federal officers have the rigdt
to resist s'by any degree Of .Joree," such
unlawful y interference, And righthe
Is the gist of the whole matter. An un-
suspectjng citizen Of our State is seized by
minion Of Federal power, under SOME
pretense--it matters not how falsc--and
the State government, the old Democratic
safeguard Of popular rights---is absolutely
iacoupetent to make even legal inquiry as
stl.s ,4eisalra- But naore css
pecialIy is this the case in anything relating
to the rendition Of fugitive slaves. There
the interests Of slavC bare Indirectly at
stake, aud of course every loop-hole must
be doubly guarded. 1t was. In fact, a case
of the kind which gave rise to the dccis-
ion. Some Of our fellow citizens in Clarke
county laughed at ,he impotent attempts
Of half-a-dozen drunken rascals to arrest
poor fugitive, and the consequence has
been, the decision Of Judge Leavitt and
their subsequent seizure imprisonment.
How long, we would ask, are the free
men Of Ohio to submit to ,stich tyranny
and usurpation? When shall Federal
power be taught to respect the rights o.
the States and the people ?
However, this Leavitt decision not only
violates State and popular rights. it also
cont rayenes fundamental provision o.
our National Constitution. That glorioti:
instrument guarantees the privilege of the
Habeas Corpus in all cases, and under al
circumstances, except of invasion or re
bellion; while the doctrines of this decis
ion annul it in the very case for which i
was intcnded-the preservation Of person
al rights.
But we find our article is getting lengthy
| We should not have said as much as W.
have, were it not for the fact that the Lea
witt decision is endorsed, to the fulles
extent, by the iehdsrs of the Democratic
party in Ohio. They boldly proclaim th'
doctrine that the State cannot protect tn
liberties of its own citizens, as one of tn
issues of the campaign. The Republican
party did not seek, didnot drive this isste
But when it is forced upon them by thei
opponents, like their Republican predeces
sors eighty-one years ago. they accept It
and confidently appeal to the people. W
believe that the honest, laboring massc
are with us. They certainly will not yiel
their liberties, without a struggle, to tn
alarming demands of Federal power.
One more thought and we are done.-
There is philosophy, plain as the noon
day sun, which underlies this whole mat
ler. These doctrines were demanded b
the slave interest, their endorsement b
the National (D Democracy was demand
ed by the slave power, and forthwith th
doctrines and their endorsement were fortl
coming. Will the people endorse the eI

Thou Art Growing Old, My Mother.
BY IYLY LEA

BY LILLY LEA.
Tbou art growing old. my mother,
And thy brow Is marked with care,
All furroved is thine aged cheek,
Once beautiful and fair.
The soft brown locks are sadly changed,
Chill trusts have settled there,
Ard touched with many freezing kiss
Thy gently flowing hair.
Thou art growing old, my mother,
As catch the half drawn sigh,
We'll know that years of sorrow
Have bedlmmed thy melting eye;
But with gentle light 1t beameth,
Beameth on me even yet,
With love that never changeth
Till the sun of life IS set.
Thou art growing old, my mother;
Many of our household hand
Have before thee journey ed onward,
To the far of better land.''
But thy voice IN tender accents,
Still is falling on my ear,
Sveetly Frightening my pathway,
Which without thee were SO drear.
Thou art growing old, my mother;
And around thy youngest born,
shadows gather-darkly gather
Even in LIES early morn.
But the blessed Saviour spa reth
Thee to still protect thy child.
While the storms of sorrow hover,
Hover Ger me dark and wild
Thou art growing old, my mother.
Soon feel that thou wilt rest
In the land of the hereafter"
In the regions OF the blest.
Who will love me then. my mother,
When the last life cord is riven:
Let us pray that both together
God will take us safe TO heaven.
