Orleans independent standard. [volume] (Irasburgh, Vt.) 1856-1871, 1859-05-06

limited States Marshal johnson was set
to work to select new panel. Being
somewhat of stranger in the city, he
procured the services of on0 Bob Brown
ell, who perched himself behind the
Clerks desk, and pointed out the good
Democrats in the audience, the Marshal
and he critically discussing the position
'on the goose of each person proposed.
Unluckily for the secresy of this affair,
the good Democrats became few in the
Courtroom, and at last Bob B. was him
self a candidate for juror, and being
closely questioned told the whole story
and was excused, though not without
several speeches, in which he urged his
right to a seat in the jury-box. The
Marshal extended the area of his opera
tons, and the number was made up. If
we are to believe what the new Jury say,
they are certainly most noteworthy, I'M
biased and unprejudiced. With few
exceptions, none of them take or read
any papers; but one or two had ever be-
fore heard of the case"
A panel of" good Democrats" having
thus been secured, the Court proceeded
with the trial of the second prisoner
Charles II. Lampson. OF course he will
be convicted, if the " democracy" of the
jury is strong enough to stand the exac-
tons of slavery and defy the Prescriptions
of innocence which the law allows, back
ed, as it appears to be in this instance, by
the sympathy of the people. 1t is quite
likely that the State Courts will intervene
a writ of habeas corpus, and so bring
Ohio, as we'll as Wisconsin, in collision
with the U. S. Supreme Court. Then
"we shall see what we shall see"
Since the foregoing was written We
find that the Ohio authorities have com
menced upon the man-hunters. Thu
Cleveland Leader, in its report of thu
trial on the Goth, says
After the examination of Mitchell
was closed, Deputy Sheriff Whitney, 0
Lorain County, stepped forward into th
area of the Court and arrested Andersen
Jennings and Richard P. Mitchell, on
warrant issued in Lorain County agains
them, upon an indictment found in tha
County, on charge of kidnapping. !
United States Marshal then stepped u
and exhibited to those officers warran
by virtue of which the two we're held
the custody of the United States Marsha
for the purpose of retaining them as wi
nesses in these trials.
| "The counsel for the Lorain Count
E officers, L. G. Thayer, Esq, stated to tt
5 Court that the arrest was made subje
+ to the claim of the Court, but forthe pu
n pose of obtaining possession of the tv
:. as soon as the Court should have 2
e through with them, and that they shou
}, then be delivered into the hands of t
l. Lorain Sheriff. The Court said it won
" take the matter into consideration. t
5 Lorain Deputy Sheriff made the ARE
d and with his assistants took seats best
y Jennings and Mitchell. There the nj
Ig ter rested, and the trial proceeded for
le time, but Marshal johnson soon remov
a. Jennings and Mitchell from their sea
and then cleared the bar of all save Les
pit gentlemen, putting the Lorain Dept
lie Sheriff out with the rest. At the adioul
n ment of Court, the two men were tax
to in custody by the United States Marsh
ch they having signifed their inability
in enter bail requisite to secure their fir
