From ths Herald Of Thursday
Intense Excitement in Court.

The arrest Of Jennings and Mitchell by
Deputy Sheriff Whitney, Of Lorain county,
in the United States Court Room, created
much excitement.
Il seems the officer from Lorain has beon
endcavoring for two weeks past to get sight
Of Jennings and Mitchell on the street, but
they have kept themselves in close custody
of The Marshal in the government walls
At last It was decided that they should be
arrested in open Court.
For timo there was great fear coils
ion might occur between the officers. The
Deputy Sheriff had assistants who were
men Of metal aud the presence Of the late
Chief of Police and large body of interest
ed spectators, showed that the Marshal had
provided before hand, for any emergency
II is said he had fifteen men in the room &c
be used, il necessary, as special bailitfs. II
looked oiniuous for time,and tho Kentucky
witnesses wero evidently thankful they had
no bail to offer and could be committed tC
the keeping Of the Marshal.
Up to noon of this day, Thursday Jen
uings and Mitchell have not made their ap
pcarance in Court. Deputy Sheriff Whit
ney, of Loraiu, keeps watch and ward il
the court room, but the mgis Of the bench
warrant shields the Kentucky witnesses from
sight and from arrest by the Lorain officer
We imagine he will be forced to return hi
warrant somewhat as the constable di'
whose prisoner ran into the morass--to wit
non come-dti5us IN swdmpo.

THE BURIAL OF DEMOCRACY.

We remarked few weeks since that the
putrid remains of the sham democracy were
a stencil and offence to the public nostrils.
We are glad to see that the undertakers
are engaged in shoyeling the body decontly
under ground In the New England States
the last shovel tull was piled on when Con-
necticut voted. In Pennsylvania the same
work has been accomplished by Forney d.
Co., in 8 state convention recently held
In Ohio and every western state, the work
will be Thoroughly done as soon as a general
election occurs. In the southern states
alone some feeble efforts are made to cleanse
and deodorizo the democratic carcass. We
begin to be afraid that we shall have no or
ganized opposition to contend with in l $50
As they say in the prize ring, we fear the
democracy will not come to time, and that
we shall have the victory without the bat
tie. We dislike to kick PROSTATE foe
We hope that our old enemies will be abb
to stand up that VIC may have the satisfac
tion of knocking them down. But a'
things move, the democracy will be dead
buried and damned before 1860.

A Cry of Distress.

The Richmond Enquirer sounds the
alarm Of the democratic citadel vociferously
He may arouse the balance of the flock, but
the time has gone by when birds of such
feather can avert danger The Enquirer
says: eHt
"Tho ascendeney Of the democratic party
is seriously threatened, net only in Pennsyl-
yania and New York, but in the Federal
Government, in all its departments, by pre-
vaiing dissensions.
"In more than one-half the Congression-
al Districts in tho south, where vacancies
are to be supplied for the next Congress, is
sues have arisen full Of peril to democratic
success.
"We counsel harmony Never before
in the history of our glorious party, or o.
our country, have such perils beset u.s."
These 'peras" will continue to increase
they will "beset," seriously threaten" anc
TOTALLY DESTROY, root and branch, the out
ragoous and iuiquitous ''nigger democracy
with which this impotent and reckless admin
istration has Internationally and withou
reserve made an alliance. Tho caus
of justice and right viii ultimately prevail

of Office holders throughout the land ar

If we may be permitted to offer a sug-
gestion, which we will endeavor to do in
the politest manner possible, it will be this
That our new council tako hold ofthe bust
ness Of improving our sidewalks vigorously,
and compel owners Of property where such
walks are needed TO set about il at once or
do it for them, and at their expense. If
there is town on the habitfble globe Of
the size, wealth and business of this, where
such rotten, scraggy, warped and dctcstable
mantraps are spread out for side walks, VIC
havo never seen it, and hope we never shall.
Ifthe hogs that infest our streets could
break all their legs and necks in them, we
would 60 in for them, at least, till that good
work was accomplished.
We are sorry to hurt the feelings of last

their friends, but our "feelinks" must have
vent or we shall burst. If a man attempts
to escape the manlraps by setting his foot
on terra firma, the chances are three to ore
that he steps into hogs - commission,
or into a mudhole plowed by these demo
cratic servants. People who live here get
used to these things, but when a stranger

from our hogs and sidewalks. o, ye dig
