Congress has never passed law fol
the protection of any kind of property in
the territories.-Douglas Speech.
This little giant but great knave, ha:
the impudence to assert to an audience o.
what be called the Intelligent citizens o'
Ohio" in the face of law which has beer
extended over every territory, authorizing
men to enter the territory and seize any
persons to whom they may lay claim as
property, and drag them away to slavery
without trial.
He talks as if it would be an innova-
tion for Congress to provide any different
protection for slave property, than for
horses and mules; as if Congress hsd not
already enacted slave code for the entire
Union, States and Territories; Just If the
party had not planted itself on this as the
sole democratic principle in Ohio, and re-
solved to sink with it.
If the principle should be adopted that
slave property was entitled to no other pro-
lection than other property, what would
become of the fugitive slave law?
What kind of an idea must this trick
ster have Of the intelligence of the Ohio
democracy, when he can utter, and repeat,
and amplify this lie n their presence with
q brazen fronti What kind Of democratic
organs must they be that can hear this,
and by their silence endorse it, Colum-

justified in saying that he will make

He defies competition, and claims that he
will make better pictures-on an average
than have ever been made west of the Mississip-
pi. My results are certain.
He would also call attention 10 the artistic
and graceful position in which his subjects will
be seated. 1t is unnecessary TO remind the
enlightened citizens of this vicinity of the in
estimable value of fine ar life like picture of

Last Saturday evening, eight persons
escaped from the Columbus jail. The jalol
was about to give them their supper, ant
confne them in their various sells, when he
was knocked down, and 25 prisoners rushed
to the door to make their escape. A servant
girl seized the key and locked an upper
door after eight of the 'jaii birds" had
flown. When the rascals found they were
baffled in their attempts to escape, they re.
turned to murder the jailor-but prisoner
named Brown had dragged him into cell
and protected him until assistance arrived
The Postmaster at Warren, OHIO, writes
at the request Of Mr.. Timothy Bradley Of
Johnston, Ohio, to say that the story Of q
correspondent announcing that Mrs. B.
was the happy mother Of eight children al
birth is malicious hoax, and adds: "Mr
and Mrs. Bradley are both respectable per-
sons of respectable families-haye been
married about six years, and have never
had any children"
The Soldiers of the last War held a
Convention at Painesville, Ohio, on Mon

to take some steps towards securing the
passage, by Congres, of new and liberal
pension law. There were at least 250 Of
the Old veterans present. "a flag was
presented them by the citizens of Pains
vile, with appropriate ceremonies. The
Hon. ]. R. Giddings touchingly responded,
on behalf Of his old comrades in arms, and
awakened many "reminiscences of the past,
by reference to the frontier scenes of 1912,
which he saw, and in part of which he was" "

KENNEDY's MEDICAL DIscovERy.-It
should ever be the duty of an editor TO lay
before his readers anything coming under
his observation that would be of interest or
benefit to them. Impressed with this idea,
we wish to introduce to the perusers of our
paper Kennedy's Medical Discovery. We
know it is like introducing familiar friend,
for this remedy for twelve years has ever
been in our midst. Yet still there may
be some who have never availed themselves
of its superior powers of healing. To you
who are suffering from Serofula, Ulcers,
Canker and humors of every kind we would
say, delay not, but try the greatest remedy
that kind providence has ever youchsafed
to make known to man.
