on Back Bay, on Sunday, he broke through
the ice, and John Lambkin, eighteen years

been in the water about an hour, he was

Immediately set to work to search for the
body of Lambkin. which was found In
about an hour after the sad affair occur

of Mr.. Martis, on the Mill Dam, and the

at five minutes before two, on the eighth

ted in the Jail yard of the town of Free

said the Court and Jury, of the young
man Moses, the particulars of which are
familiar to our readers The victim of

rating it to the last. tits terrible pic
ture, and cannot be dwelt upon long
without almost shaking ones faith in the
iufallibility of trial, in bringing out
facts upon which such awful consequences
must result. Here is a young man, whose
hands have been unstained by any crime,
educated with no idea of the enormity Of
an act of msrder, charged with it, convict
ed upon circumstantial evidence, and on
the scafold, in possession:of all his facul-.
ties, moral aud otherwise, dies persisting
that he has been the victim of q dreadful
error on the part Of Court and jury. He
knew that he was to go Immediately be-
fore Him from whom there are no secrets,

a lie on his lips If lieit was, yet. knowing
this he deciared himself not the author
of the death of Moses, and was, IN the

Ohio Legislature.
From the Ohio Statesman.

Tue Senate, yesterday, passed the
House Bill, to repeal the act of the last
Legislature, to prottc; investments in Mu-
nicipal Corporations. The vote in the
Senate was unanimous. We alluded to
this bill yesterday, and We ave only to
repeat that the repeal was demanded by
both public policy and public interest.
The House Bill to increase the eompeu-
sation of jurors in cases before Justices
of the Peace from fifty cents in each case,
to seventy five cents per day, was defeat
ed in the Senate, by a decided vste.
The report of the Commissioner of Sta
tistics was laid before the Senate yester-
day, and referred to the committee on
Printing.
Mr. sArF1N's Bill (House) to repeal
the law authorizing the purchase of Parke,
was ordered to be printed, with the House
amendments.
The House, yesterday, passed Mr..
LANGDoN's Bill (Se ate) reducing the fees
of County Officers, with an amendment
excepting its operation in criminal cases,
and another providing that no deduction
shall take place unless the fees are paid
within ninety days after they accrue

lone in the House.

Ohio sub.Treasury Bill.

We are gladsto observe by the Legisla-
tive proceedings, that Col. HATCH, an able
and experienced Senator from Hamilton
county, has introduced into the body of
which he is a member, q bill for establish
ing the Sub Treasury SYSTEM in Ohio.
We have not we: seen this bill, but gentle
men who have looked over it hastily, speak
we'll of it's merits.
That this great measure might be matur-
ed and placed on the statute book by a
party which was unGu ,stionably in its ia
vor, was the main controlling motive which
induced the people of Ohio to place a
majority of democrats in the present Leg
islature. 1t is a matter of the utmost
importance, therefore, that every care be
taken to make the bill as perfect as posi-
bic; and to this end, it will be well for the
friends of the measure to give it precedence
oyer all other matters of Legislation 50 soon
as it is ready to be taken up.
The lesson to be drawn from the defeat
of the Sub-Treasury bin at the sessions
of 1853 and 1854, may convey a useful
admenitiou to ths present Legislature.
At both those sessions, the Treasury bill
was defeated by the success of its enemies
in s%taving off final action thereon until the
last days of the session. To guard against
any similar miscarriage at the present
session, would it not be wise for the dem
oeratic members, in caucus, to decide
that this great measure shall receive final
action at least two weeks before the close
of the session Neloark Advocate.

seneca ~Advertlser.

This paper of the l7rh inst. contains q
very sensible article upon the Kansas
question, throwing the entire resporsibili-
~ of past ADD present difficulties upon
the aboli'ionists OF that Territory, acting
under the guidance Of Republican agita-
tors in the States. The spirit and tem-
per of the article are commendable. The
Major is evidently persuaded that the
true solution of the difficulty is the i'm
mediate admission of Kansas under the
Constitution which the People of that
Territory have adopted, through their
delegates, in conformity to the terms Of
the Kansas Nebraska act. We shall en-.
deavor to find room for the editorial Of
the Advertiser.

The PARTY Lash.

The locofocos show unusual disposition
to succumb to the dictates of their lead
ers. When President Buchanan submit
ted to Congress his views on Kansas,
there was on the part,ef leading democrats
in this place a strong Douglas feeling and
quite an expression of hostility to the po-
sition taken by Buchanan. But it was
wnoderful how soon after Mr.. Knapp's re-
wheeled around and embraced the views
of the administration. In other things
some of these individuals lave independ-
epce of thought and action, and their SER
Witty in this case is therefore the more
surprising. We could mention a few
names in this town whose checks ought
to blush at the very mention of being
misled by Fl. S. Knapp. We now n
derstand that the 9Th of January supper
got up by Knapp, purely for the pur-
pose to bring these men into support OF
his views.-AshLand Times.
EE Justice to every Democrat in ASH
land county who participated in the meet
ing referred to, and justice to myself, de-
mands that I should say that every state
ment in the foregoing paragraph is erro-
nsous. We left Columbus, in company
with the Editor of the Times On Monday,
the 4th of January. On our arrival home
on the next day we learned that arrange
ments had been made for a Democratic
meeting at Ashland on the 9Th. We had,
therefore, just as much agency in "get-
ting up'' the supper as Mr.. OSBORN, and
no more. Indeed, when We learned that
the arrangements had been made, we TX
pressed regret, but was overruled BY
those who had resolved to rave the meet
ing. We are very glad, however, that
we toere voted down, as the proceedings
appear to be a source of great annoyance
to the haters of the Democratic party
The effort of the Times to get up i'll feel
ing among Democrats By charges of die
t~ation, &c., will utterly fail.

cupies much of our space this ueek, Our
intelligent readers, however, will not re-
greet its length. 1t is a logical and tri-
umphant vindication of the true princi-

the Territorial questions, and is crowded
with presidents which challenge the high
est respect of every Democrat, and of
every 4fiend of the Constitution aud ID 9

birth, there has nothing appeared in its
columns which meets with SO hearty a
response from such of its readers as con-
to love their country, in spite OF
their sectional and fanatical party ties.

A HYENA LOOSE IN PAULpING COUNTY.
On Wednesday morning last, between
5 and 4 o'c.osk, a striped hyera broks
.o1se from Lis cage in the barn of Mr..
Eli Watson, a few miles west of Pauldipg
in Paulding County. Tho beast is the
property Of Nj. Gaming, formerly of
the firm of Maybe. Gaming 81 Co., we'll
known circus and menagerie proprietors)
who quarters his collection of animals
during the winter season at the farm of
the above named Mr. Watson. The mon
ster was not missed until daylight. Rails
ing a numerous crowd of farmers, Mr.
Watson went in search of him. Know
ing the terrible instincts of the animal,
the party proceeded to a graveyard about
a mile distant aud there found him, He
had disihterred two newly buried bodies
and mostly devoured them. He had also
partly dug up other graves. To capture
the monster alive in his then Infatuated
state was of course an impossibility.
Mr.. Watson therefore fred a rife at him
but did not hit him. The monster sprang
in among the men, bounced upon a Ger
man named P~affenberg, killing him almost
instantly. A boy and two men in the
crowd were also knocked over and consid-
erably though not dangerously injured
The German was the only person killed.
The hyena made for the woods. It was
reported that he killed a man on his way
thither, but the report is not authenticated
A largo force was Immediately raised,
and the animal was pursued, but at last
accounts had not been found. The hJena
formerly belonged to Van Amburgh &
Co., and is said to be the largest one of
his species in America. He had, we arc
informed, been reared in a cage and had
always been considered as tamo and peace
able as animals of his kind can be rendered.
His escape, fearful work, and his pursuit
have, wenoed hardly add, created great
excitement in the vicinity of Paulding-
CLerezand PKandcaLer.

Batchelder, a young farmer of Plainfeld,
ten miles east of Montpelier, VT, was

a span of horses aud a mill log, the sled
sluad against the hammock by the side of
the road. caFsized and brought the full
weight of the log directly across the chest
of the PROSTATE driver, killing him in

more striking, is the sad coincidence that

Paintings FOR the New state House.

We agree with Bro. GILL, of the Ohio
Patriot, that the General Assembly would
do we'll "to let paintings, to adorn the
rotunda of the State House, alone, for
the present." In these times the people
will not sustain q member who votes to
incur any future liability that is not de
handed by absolute necessity. Better
let the panels of the 1otunda remain bare
and unoccupied until the State can cele-
brate her emancipation from debt. 1t
was follies like these, which the Reput-
licans were always running into, that
brought their political days to q prema-
ture close. We regret to notice that the
measure referred to was introduced and
advocated by one of the best men in the
Senate, but hope it will be defeated.
