Gen. Burns in !, street Fright.

At the township election in Roscoe last
Saturday, GEN. Burns descended from his
high position as Congressman from the 18th
Ohio Congressional District, and undertook
to thrash Mr.. Charles Ellis, (who is a very
small sized man, weighing about l2o fbs)
because, as we'are Informed, Mr.. Ellis had
refused to vote for Burnsat the late October
election. The fight, it seems, lasted sever
al minutes, during which time the combat.
ants fairly wallowed in the mud. Ellis
succeeded in planting well direc,ed blow
with his fist Immediately under one of the
Generals eyes, which had the effect Of
blacking it considerably. Had not the by
ISLANDERS interfered and parted the combat
tant>, it is thought Ellis would have sound
ly thrashed the General. -
Such scenes are, TO say the least, dis
graceful for United States Congressman
to engage in street fight, with one of his
constituents, on so siighla provocation.-
But then, in the language of a cotenpora-
ry,'"Genetal Burns dies hard Coshoe-

The Illinois Election

q The Washington Union, the Presidents
organ, in its issue of Friday last, devotes
an editorial to the result of the recent
election in Illinois. 1t says: i7a.
If the Democratic party have triumphed
in Illinois it has been at its own expense,
in consideration of joining in the Black
Republican clamor against the "Lecompton
fraud and swindle." It is triumph bar
rem and ignomenious; it is triumph over
which the Black Republicans have reason
to exult, and do exult more than the good
and true Democracy. The platform of the
party in Illinois on the great slavery ques-
tion, in the canvass just ended, differs but
little from the Buffalo platform of ls4s.-
1t was the leading tenet of the Buffalo
platform that Congress might prohibit
slavery in the territories and, debar
from those common possessions of all
the States, the citizens Of half the Union.
Ilisshe leading tenet of the Illinois plat
form that the subordinate agent Of Con-
gress, tho territorial legislature. may do
this thing-in the manner most becoming
an underling and tool, ly indireclion. bal
faith and perjury. r.B
We repeat, that victory, won upon
charge of fraud and delinquency of princi-
pie, against the Democracy-a victory won
upon platform of doctrines differing but
shade from the odious platform of Buffalo,
is not victory over which We can rejoice,
or from which We can expect any advan-
tage or honor to the great party in whose
service We labor. e7 a.F iiti9 H.,
1t also publishes letter from cores
pondent in Illinois, 'swlio has travelled the
whole State" in which the writer saws:
sit was the impression among th. lead
ing Democrats at Springfeldct cthut Douglas
will not, under any circumstances, be re-
turned, even though his friends BE- in ap.
parent majority in the Legislature. They
believe that among them will BE- found
sufficient number of members elected to
beat Lincoln who will refuse to vote for
Douglas, and thus prevent the election Of
either. ~. -.

Execution of the Boy Murderer.

The wreiched criminal, young Rodgers,
who murdered Mr.. Swunston, quiet ciii-
zen Of New York, in public street on the
2Isl of Ociober, 1857, was executed. on
Friday. Rodgers belonged to The numer-
Gus class in cities of .fiSt boys" IL com
pany with two other drinking rowdies they
met Mr.. S. and wife on the pavement, one
of them reeled against Mrs. S. and on be-
ing demonstrated with, Rodgers plunged a
knife into Mr., S., killing him instantly
Every effort to obtain a reprieve or COM
mutation failed, so alarming has youthful
crime and rowd, ism become in New York.
Rodgers was oniy about Is, and almost
feminine in his appearance. He was exeeul-
ed il the yard Of the City Prison. The
Times account says: f.es, q. t..,...e.
= At twenty-five minutes before twelve
o'clock the rope was cut. For nearly a
minute he swung around, and vibrated TO
and fro, from tie force of the fall. Then
he commenced TO struggle, and for eight
minutes his quiverings were fearful. He
so far loosened his right arm from the rope
that pinioned him, that he was able to
thurst his hand within his bosom,
where lie tore at his heart as if there was
the seat of all his pain. He had probably
no conscnusness-the doctors said the ac-
ton was merely muscular and involuntary,
but it was sickening to behold After
eight minutes his pulse cen bat
After hanging forty mn e was
lowered, and deposited in plain stained
coffin. His brother and male relatiS
his bro,her-in, law, as was understood
entered the yard while he was suspended,
and received his remains. And then ter
rible scene occurred. .--.-r s,s.........
His mother, sisters and brothers were in
in the prison, awaiting the custody Of his
remains. On the coffin containing the
body being brought into the outer yard,
they threw themselves upon it and the
spectacle that followed was too narrowing
for description. The face of the deceased,
which was horribly contorted, was exposed.
but they bent over it, kissing the swollen
lips, from which the tongue prntruded, till
finally one after the other tainted, and the
oldest habitues of the Toombs had to retire
uQable to bear the scene. Eventually the
cJrpse was removed in hearse to the res
id-nce Of the parents, and thus the execu-
tion ended. 7,r,

The Man.fieId swindler.:

tie. The father, it will be remembered,
decamped from Chicago, leaving a letter
in which he pretended he had been robbed
of his money.
The Chicago Press says that efforts on
on the part of the Dorland's to get their
bail reduced has failed, as has also an at
tempt to get released by means of writ of
-habsas- -cOrpus.-That paper Of the ls,h

On Wednesday morning last. a letter
reached this city addressed 1ild, ITO Mr.

The letter is written from the place Of

DEAR SIR:-I see by the Chicago pa.
pers, that you have got into trouble with
Mr.. G. Dorland, of this county, man

days. While here he sold his real estate

ties and then left. Ifyou should not sue

This epistle was evidently bluff, and
merely intended TO throw the prosecuting
witnesses off the track, or probably alarm
them INTO an easier settlement. .--.-.
Not long after the letter thus came into
the hands of the police, an agent Of Gar

from the Rip Van Wipkle sort Of stupor
in whicl, it has lain for few years past.
Considerable ssproperty has changed owners
within the last few days, and We hear Of
other purchases contemplated. There is
also considerable talk Of new tenements to
ba put up the coming summer. Among
the buildings proposed to be erected is a
School Building, suitable for Central
High School. We do hope this project
may be successful. Dwelling houses are
much in demand and rents consequently
pretty steep, hat fifteen or twenty addi-
tionnl good houses could be rented even at
the present high figures. 81, ~.
