E'he IIabcas Corpus Cases.

The Supreme Court of Ohio has refuse
10 release Bushnell and Langston, in the
Habeus Corpus cases, and affirmed the de-.
cison of Judge Wilson and the United States
Supreme Court that the Fugitive Slave Law
is constitutional. This is q sad disappoint.
meHt to the ultra Aboltionists of the Re-
serve, who desired exceedingly to bring bout
q collision between the State and Federal
authorities. We are glod that Republican
Supreme Court has had the courage and
firmness to rebuke Republican fanaticism.
1t will do gocd-it will teach traitors and
higher law men that the laws, however OBJ.
noxIous they may be to them, are to be re.
spected and obeyed until they are repealed.
What will Giddings and his coadjutors do in
this new crisis =! Will they tear down the
Cleveland Jail or 60 to Columbus and drive
out the judges who have dared to be true to
their oaths ! Something must be done to
get up a sensation

Gen. William Walker, FiIItbustcr

The redoubtable William Walker, grey.
eyed man of destiny, and Ex.President ol
Nicaragua, like pug nose, is continually
turning up-in the newspapers. A few
months ago he affected the eccentricity Of
joining the Church at Mobile he next turn.
ed up in San Francisco, and we now hear ol
him having sailed from San Francisco and
arrived at Acapulco with band Of 800 ad.
venturers, whom he intended to lead into
Sonora, for the purpose Of aiding the Zuloa-
ga government, or what is styled the con.
stitutional party of Mexico. Now, the peo.
pie Of that unfortunate country are, and for
many years have been, in the habit of cut
ting each others throats without much re.
gard for SO doing; and that the bellcose
Walker will take hand in the delightful
occupation, is probable. Mr.. w. Walker,
Fillibuster, has q peculiar and original way
of always turning up somewhere at an un.
seasonable moment, but his turnings.up do
not amount to much. His enterprises are
usually very wild, generally unpopular, and
continually unsuccessful. His expeditions
have been failures, and in this fact lies the
misfortune of the grey-eyed chief. Even to
be great pirate it is necessary to be sue.
cessful one. "The world, the great big
world" likes success q mans fame ie meas.
ured by his success, and life of failures is
worse than life Of folly.
''The world hates tho fool, the sniveling fool,
Who scars but fails In the flight;
And talk as We please, we shall hurrah
For the uppermost dog in the agnt."
Walker seems determined to try his luck
again upon the sea of Filibusterism. Should
he fail this time, he is dead cock in the pit.
Should Mr.. Buchanan again stretch his hand
for the unlucky William, he will have to 20
under in spite Of his grey eyes and his des.
tiny.

The Democratic Platform.

In another column will be found the ad.
mirablo platform constructed by the Conven.
ton at Columbus on Thursday last. 1t is a
document that scarcely requires comment,
for it speaks for itself. We most cordially
and heartily endorse it as whole and in all
its parts, and we have no doubt but the De-
mocracy of Portage county will give it their
unanimous endorsement, as will olso the req.
sonable and rational men OF the opposition.
Upon the cherished doctrine of non-interven.
ton by Congress with slavery it is full and
explicit, and recognizes no man as inside
our organic ition who is opposed this funda-
mental article of our political faith, SO nee.
essary to the harmony and preservation of
the Union. The whole political views of
Southern as well as Northern fanatics is
heartily and warmly denounced.

Cow Swallowing n BrOomstick

Mr.. Samuel Adams, who lives in the north
part Of Medina, owns COW, which, in April,
1868, he discovered choking to death. Not
knowing what to do, he took u broomstick
lying near, and thrust it into her throat
The COW not relishing such proceedings.
broke away from him, and in her struggles
broke the broomstick in twain. Mr.. A.,
still more alarmed, caught the COW again and
thrust his arm into her throat, but before he
could reach the stick the cow had swallowed
it. The cow has recovered from the chok.
ing, and has since appeared as we'll as ever.
The stick remained in her until last Friday
upwards of thirteen months, and measured
Just eighteen inches. During last summer
Mr. A. noticed, while milking, portions OF
TODD on the ground, where the COW had lain
Trough the night, which had protruded
through hole in her side. Last Friday the
end OF the stick was visible at this hole,
when it was taken from her. The stick can
be seen OF Mr.. Aliens. The COW is doing
well, and probably feels somewhat relieved.

Democratic State Ticket.

The gentleman selected by the Conven-
ton to lead the Democratic forces of the
State, as the candidate for Governor, is
Hon. RUFUS P. RANNEY-one of Ohio's
most talented sons. Judge RANNEY is 80
we'll known to our readers, both personally
and by reputation, as to render needless any
remarks of ours concerning him at this time.
WILLIAM H. Stafford, the Lieutenant
Governor, is highly respectable citizen of
Ross county, and at present is member of
the State Senate from the counties of Ross
and Highland. He was formerly an old line
Wing, hut, like thousands of that class, con.
nected himself with the Democracy as the
only National organization that was ade-
quate TO the duty of preserving the Union
intact. His election to the Senate, from q
district formerly strongly Opposition, shows
his popularity at home.
Judge WHITMAN, OF Fairfield county, is
we'll known to the people of the State. He
has been prominent member of the Legis-
ture, Judge of the Common Pleas Court
and held other positions, in which he dis.
played talents Of no mean order. He is O.
good lawyer and capital jurist.
Mr.. DORSEY, of Miami, the nominee for
State Auditor, is gentleman Of fine talents,
and is well qualified to fill any position in
the State Government. He has twice been
candidate for Congress in the Fourth Dis.
trct, and in 1856 came within few votes
of being elected over III. H. Nichols. He
is not only an able and vigorous debater,
thoroughly posted in American politics, but
possesses first rate administrative and busi.
ness qualities. He would make a worthy
successor to VIM. D. Morgan.
DR.. WIN. BUSHNELL, of Richland county,
is the nominee for State Treasurer. The
Democracy of that county unanimously re.
commended him for the position, and indorse,
in eulogistic terms, his integrity and capa.
city.
The Secretary OF State, Mr.. JACOB REIN
HARD, Of Franklin county, has long been the
editor of Democratic German paper pub.
lished in Columbus. He is q liberal and
patriotic citizen, of good character and abil-
tiles, and we'll deserves the confidence of the
Democratic organization for whose princi.
pies he has always stoutly battled and main.
tanned.
Mr.. ALLEN, Of Harrison county, the nom.
inee for State School Commissioner, is the
editor OF the Cadiz Sentinel, one of the
old and long esta blished Democratic jour.
nails OF tho State. Under Mr.. Allen g man.
agement it has well sustained its reputation.
JAMES ToMLINsoN, an estimable citizen of
county. man of unquestioned
integrity and capacity, is the candidate for

tidings from the plains. ItaPpears that some
OF the Pixies Peak emigrants have died ol
starvation, and haze been eaten by their fam
Ishing comrades. The suferings of many
more are such as human nature cannot long
Withstand. This state of facts is not so much
due the want Of gold in the region where il
is sought, as TO the surprising imprOvidence
Of multitudes Of the emigrants, who rushed
forth without money, food or knowledge o

not, therefore, leave on Friday with her
California mails and passengers for the
