Douglas at WOOster--DOuslas
Rabid.

Senator Douglas addressed a large meet
ing at Wooster on the 10Th, for two hours,
mainly rehearsal of his Magazine mani
festo. The review of that article by At
torney General Black appears to have stir
red up the bile of the Little Giant tremen-
dously. He charged him with falsifying,
and seeking to destroy the Democratic par
ly-doing it anonymously, and with the
purpose Of striking down not only Douglas
but all the leaders Of the Democratic party
in the Free States. The bitterness. exhibit
ed by Mr.. Douglas towards Judge Black
shows that his withers are wrung, and in.
dicates his intense hostility toward the Bu-
chanan administration.
Mr.. Douglas not only denied that he
held doctrines in. opposition to the bred
Scott decision, but claimed that decision
sustained his doctrine of popular sovereign
ty. He also slandered the Republicans by
asserting that they held doctrines in regard
to the Territories identical with those of
King George the Fourth and the Tories of
the Revolution, regarding the Colonies
His speech was racorously partisan.
Judge Ranney and Senator Pugh follow
ed Mr.. Douglas in speeches of an hour
each. Judge Douglas left Immediately for
Washington. We trust that he will keep
on the stump until the Charleston Conven-
tion. His stereotyped speeches, and copy
righted essays on Popular Sovereignty will
"return to plague the inventor. p Cleve-
land Leader.

MEDINA.-A rape was committed las,
week Wednesday afternoon, at York Cen
ter, by M. B. Fletcher, man upwards Of
forty years of age on the person of
little daughter of Rev. Mr.. McEw
en-, aged ten gears. Fletches called
the child to his house saying he would give
her some nice apples if she would go in,
and after she had entered he laid hold of
her and committed the hellish deed hold
ing his hand over her mouth, to prevent
her screams. The parents of the child
were just starting on journey, and were
not apprised of the deed until their return
nearly a week-when they caused Fletch-
er's arrest. Instead of bringing him to
Medina Jail, he was placed in charge of
constable Herrick, who permitted him to
go home, when be took leg bail and has not
since been seen. Fletcher owns large
farm in York, and has wife and family.

STARTLING CoINcIDENcE.-While Rev.
S. B. Webster, of Painesville, was preach-
ing before the Grand River Association at
Geneva, last Wednesday evening, and at
the moment while he was Illustrating a
truth, by startling allusion to a burning
dwelling, the flames were actually consum-
ing the house ofan aged couple who wore
sitting thrilled with the eloquentworls of
the preacher. srza sal vlez-i rl-g
Comfort Wetinore and wife had early
in the evening left their home in the care
of two little girls aged about / 4 years, one
an adopoted child of the old people, the
other grand child who was on visit to
her grand parents. As they neared their
house, after the evening service, they dis
covered the house to be on fire, and soon
found the adobted child badly burned, but
not fatally, she had crawled out at the
window, and vainly entreated her compan-
ion to follow, but frightened cut of her
reason, she took refuge under. the bed and
perished. She was soon after drawn out
with hooks, her head and limbs mostly
consumed. The father of the girl is Barn
ard Wetmore. The origin of the fire is
not known, but there is no reason to attri1
butte it to the carelessness of the girls

H At every point where Mr.. DEN
N1soN and Judge RANNEr have thus far
met in discussion, according to the ar
rangements entered into by the State Cen.
COMMITTEES of the two parties, the Latter
has been accompanied by several Of the
leading speakers of that party, who aid
their candidate in every way possible for
them to do so. They set on the stand
with him and by means of slips, of paper
and by outspoken words post their man
up, and on several occasions they have
gone so far as TO contradict Mr.. DEssIsos,
whilst he was speaking, and ask him ques-
lions irreyelant TO the matters under dis
cussion. Why is this, if our opponents
have the confidence in the ability of their
candidate that they profess to have? They
claim that he is more than match for our
man. Ifthis is so, why not let the discus
sion go on between the two gentlemen
themselves. Their actions give the lie to
their words of confidence. But let them

Important 10 Tax Payers--State
Board of Equalization.

We hopeit will not be forgotten BY the
tax paving voters of this county, that q
fair and equitable adjustment Of the taxes
in the different counties depends upon the
election Of an intelligent and discreet State
Board of Equalization. 1t will be remem-
bered that it is by law the duty of this
Board to revise the assessments returned
to the State Auditor by the Auditors Ct
the several counties. Thus, practically, the
assessment of the taxable value of all the
real estate in Ohio is placed in the hands
of the Board. This assessment, moreover,
remains without alteration for sic years
the basis of taxation. The trust reposed
in the Board is therefore one of great mag
nitude-greater if possible than that COM
mitted to the Legislature. 1t is of the
highest importance that this trust should
be confded TO men competent and willing
to discharge it in such manner as to do
justice to every county, and injustice to
none. - "a sssz 81 10
We hope the voters of Holmes and
Wayne counties, will look well to the quail
iications of the candidates presented for
Members of the Board of Equalization, by
the two parties, before they cast their votes
for either. The post is an important one,
and if an incompetent man is selected, the
taxpayers will have to suffer for it, in the
way of increased taxation. 1t is matter
that all are interested in, and choice should
be made without any reference tothe pol
itics of either candidate. 1t is fact
known to all intelligent men, that the land
owners of this county, are now paying
more than their proportion of taxes, owing
to the unequal appraisement of the land
by the last State Board of Equalization.
Had the Member of that Board from this
District been competent to attend to the
duties for which he was elected, hundreds
of dollars in taxas would have been saved
to its tax payers. Mr.. JAMES GREER, the
candidate presented by the Republicans, is
a man of sense, of experience, of high char
acter for honesty, integrity and intelligence;
of courteous and gentlemanly bearing, and
and is, in fact, just the man to fill credi-
tably and proftably, the place for which he
has been selected.

"wen Reaily.n

swell Really" exclaimed a countryman
the other day, on looking into CoHN's
Clothing Store. Well he might ssy as
much, and if he needed clothing, and like
US, hadn't the wherewith to buy them, he
would have been pardoned for saying har-
der things than he did of Conn. We in
tend to have him indited by the next Grand
Jury, for needless and unnatural punish
ment of the ragged. If we can get this
accomplished, and have Court grant an
order for the division of his stock, "Oh
Jehosephat," won't the ragged grow fat
and the hungry get clothed. But unless
there is special session called for this pur-
pose, there'll be nothing left to divide, for
they are carrying of theaaadsn by arms full.
Worse, and Worse:
Just as we had concluded the arrange
meuts for having COIN punished, S. B.
HOFFMAN, q Co., announce that they too,
have just received "clothing for the mil
lion." Not doubling their word but pre-
fering to see for ourselves, we dropped in,
and there, true enough, the ssovereigns"
were going it, hustle and justle, running
and jamming to get the first grab. The
only hope the poor-the poor devils and
the devils poor-now have, is, that some
body will die soon aud leave them rich
legacy of-old clothes.

wWe were present at the discpssi;

@We were present at the discussion
between Messrs. .DENNIsoN and RASNEY
at Canton, on Saturday last. The attend
ance was large, and each party seemed sat-
isfed with their champion. Mr.. RANNEY
had the usual number of bottle-holders
and spongers with him, whilst Mr.. DENIM
SON travels, alone. The debate thus far be-
tween these two men, has dissipated the
notion previously entertained by some, that
RANNEy was an ADLER man than DEYN1soN.
AT the close of the debate at Canton, rs
elsewhere, alarge majority of those present
held the converse of the proposition. Mr..
D. is eloquent, pleasant, logical and witty,
and proved himself more than match for
Mr.. r. The latter floundered, labored and
equivocated, like a lawyer with a bad cause.
The friends Of Mr.. DENNIsoN, greatly re-
greet that the two candidates cannot meet
40 discussion in every county in the State.

New York Hards and softs.

The harmonious Democracy" had de-
lightful time at the late Syracuse Conven-
tion. Ex-Mayor Wood, Capt. Rynders,
Heenan and Others of the Clancy" were
prominent in the political ring, and "Irish
weddings" were plenty In the efforts Of
the two wings to get the start of each
other in the organization two conventions
were officered, but not until Mr.. Slryker,
Chairman of the anti Wood party, was
twice knocked off the platform by Wood
contestants. Other blows were struck, the
widest excitement prevailed, several pis-
tolls We're drawn, and one was pointed at
Rynders. Wood had evidently the strong
est party, so far as fighting was concerned.
The sparring was miscellaneous and no Sc
rious damage was done to mugs, though
Stryker bore marks of punishment. The
second day the Convention so far harmon
lied as to put in nomination the same tick
ct, excepting only for the office of Clerk
of the Court of Appeals Leader.

The San Juan Island Difficul-

Pacific.

The San Juan Island Difficul-
ty--Gen. Scott ordered to the
Pacific. - - -
There is so much danger that the speck
of war the impetuous and sreckless Gen.
Rarney has kindled on the Pacific may
grow intoa flame involving the Govern
ments of tho United States and Great Bri-
tain, that Gen. Scott has been summoned
into council at Washington and the man.
agement of the delicate matter has very
properly been entrusted by the Admins
tration to the supervision of the skilful and
cautious Lieutenant General of the army.
The promptness and celerity of"Old Chip
may be seen in the fact that he was at
West Point on the 18th preparing for a
grand review of the Cadets, and in the
evening despatch informed him that his
presence was needed in Washington. At
sunrise the next morning he was on his
way; the 18th found him at the Capital,
and on the 10th he was on his way to N.
York to prepare to start ON voyage Of
six or seven thousand miles to our farthest
frontier. The Washington dispatch of the
10th to the N. Y. Herald says:
"The present delicate and complicated
state of affairs at San Juan, growing out
of Gen. Harney's movement, requires great
care and caution on the part of our govern
ment to prevent collision. -
The President, in conferring with Gen.
Scott in regard to the matter, suggested
the propriety of sending some one there
who was less impetuous and more prudent
than General Harvey. General Scott at
once informed the President that he would
90, and that as soon as his instructions
were prepared he would be ready 10 start.
"The instructions were partially pre-
pared and considered in Cabinet council to-
day. They will probably be completed
tomorrow, and forwarded Immediately 10
New Yolk. -,
"The administration received some ad-
ditiopal advices from Gen. Harney, brought
by the Star of the West. There had
been no material change, and matters re-
mained in statu quo"

the 18th ult AT that date quiet prevail
ed, the British vessels of war being at an
chor in the harbor, and the United States
troops in camp on shore. Gen. Harney
had ordered reinforcements of men, and
Gov. Douglass of ships of war. Special
messengers from both these commanders
had been sent to Washington, and have
reached the Capital. Col. Hawkins, the
messenger of Gov. Douglass, delivered dis
patches to Lord Lyons, the British Minis
ter, and sailed at once for England to APP

sengers led to- steps already announced;
and the determination to send the great
Paciicator to the Pacific. When the
suggestion was made by the President, the
prompt old soldier replied, Il will go as
soon as my instructions are ready"
