The official proceedings Of the Democrats
State Conventian will be found elsewhere in our
columns this morning. This assemblage of the
Democratic Party of our State was equal in a
bility to any similar body that ever met at the
Capitol. Every part Of the State was fully rep
resented and a spirit of universal harmony pre-
vailed. The ticket nominated is composed OF
good men, who will not only receive the sup
port of the whole Democratic Party ofOhio, but
will rally to our standard q host OF voters in
every part ofthe State, who have heretofore act
ed with other organizations. Our candidates
one and all are competent men who love our
institutions as our fathers made them, and are
worthy of the confidence Of all who desire to
respect the Union Of the States and the rights
Of the States according to the compromises OF
that sacred instrument. The Resolutions were
unanimously adopted by the Committee oftwen-
ty-one, to whom was delegated the duty Of re-
porting them to the Convention, and passed that
boly without a dissenting voice. We fling our
banner to h! breeze with a firm belief that the
people OF Ohio, on the second Tuesday of Octo-
Der next, will ratify at the polls the nominations
made on yesterday, by the triumphant election
of our ticket.
We congratulate not only our own party, but
all other law abiding citizens Of our noble State,
on the bright and cheering prospects inaugural
ed by the proceedings of yesterday. The spir.
it of our Convention will animate the people,
and in the canvass now begun we shall over
whelm the Republicans and Danish them from
power in Ohio.-S Statesman, May 9Th.

On the goth day Of May, 1859, Mrs. JANE
REA, in the seth year of her age, and wife OF
Mr.. Joseph Rca, OF Cadiz Up.
The deceased was united in marriage to heI
surviving husband, in the 18th year Of her age,
and for Al years they shared with each other,
the lows and sorrows common to this life; but
death entered and broke up this domestic ar
rancement which had so long existed; leaving a
husband and five children to mourn this bereav-
ment. In the early part o. her life she had the
privilege of attending upon the ministry Of her
father.inlaw (Rev. John Rea, ID. d. and un-
der his pastoral care, she made a profession Of
religion at the age 20 years, in the congregation
Of Beech Springs, and a short time after this,
together with her husband removed into the
bounds of Nottingham congregation; to which;
thew transferred their church membership, and
in which relation she continued until her death.
Mrs. Rea suffered much in her last illness; her
complaint was protracted and Severe-at times
produced excruciating pain and ~agony-and for
the last two months Of her life, she was entire.
ly confined to her bed-her disease was one OIL
its own kind, and it has never been my lot to
witness any person, laboring under a similar
affection, although her physician was wonder
fully attentive; yet the subtle progress OF the
disease worked ltS way, anu paineo All uleulca'
skill. At intervals Of more acute suffering, she
would ask me ITO talk about Christ and then
pray with her." she thanked God for her hope
in a crucifed Saviour, and often prayed for
stronger faith and "thirstcd for God" and long
ed to know more Of him, and his consultations.
For the last three days Of her life, she was con-
cious of the nearncss of death, and expected ev-
cry hour to be the last Of her stay upon earth,
but said, "Thy will be done"

No FiCrIoN, BUT TRUTH.-We are aware
that it is customary to speak of many Of the
remedies of the day in a light and frivolous
manner. This may answer where the case to
be cured is of a trifing character, and the rem
edy presented simple, although perhaps ade-
quate to the case required. But when we are
called upon to prescribe for diseases, endured
only by excruciating pain, and whose termlna.
ton is often fatal, we leave jesting aside, and
proceed with earneStness to utter iacts that Will
perhaps rescue a fellow being from a bed o.
sickness or the grave. 1t is thus that we would
introduce to our readers kennedy's Medical
Discovery, and state that for the cure of hu-
mors there is nothing in the world can equal
this popular and extensively used medicine

OUTRAGE IN OBERLIN!

tice- Two Negroes Attempt 10

tice-TwO Negroes Attempt 10
Murder one of the Government
Witnesses in the Rescue Case.
A correspondent in Oberlin sends us the
particulars Ola fendish attempt on the part OF
two colored men, night before last, to murder a
respectable citizen of that town, named Mr.. y.
A. Wood, who was one ofthe witnesses for the
prosecution in the late Rescue trial. Mr..
Wood keeps a livery stable in oberlin; and his
residence is about q Of a mile from his stable.
About nine O'Clock in the evening as he was
proceeding home from his stable and when
nearly opposite Mr.. Plumb's residence, two ne
groes appeared and walked along behind him.
Surprising they desired to pass, Mr.. Wood step
ped to oHe side, when one Of them suddenly
caught him BY the shoulder, and made a desper-
ate thrust at him with a large knife which he
held in his hand, aiming at his head evidently.
Wood then threw up his arm in time to ward
off In blow, which otherwise might have proved
fatal, and the knife passed through his coat
sleeve, and raised the skin upon his wrist. The
other negro then dealt him a powerful blow Tn
the head, with some kind of a weapon,
which brought him to the ground, when the
murderous a~ssailant with the knife, gave him
another stab, which they seemed to think mad
done the business for him, and jumping over the
fence they ran away before they could be rec
ognized. The second stab, like the first, prov
identially missed its aim, and grazed his side.
cutting every article of clothing with which II
came in contact through and through. Mr.
Wood doubtless owes his preservation to the
darkness; which prevented the knife OF 1.-THE muir
derer finding a vital spot, as was the undoubted
intention it should do. The darkness ptcvent-
ed his recognizing the r%ufiians.
That murder was the object Of their attack
no one can deny, though what should Undue
them to attempt it, unless it was a desire to
have him out Of the way before the July term
we cannot conceive.
We look upon the occurrence as one ofthe di-
rect fruits of Joshua r. Giddings' devilish and
malignant teachings, and if the negroes had ac-
complishcd their undUubted aim, and murdered
Mr.. Wood, Giddings would have been res
ponsibIe for his death. Giddings tells the
blacks OF Oberlin that in disregarding law they
do right; that their errcr consists in sparing
men who do not think and act as they do
The niggers are only following the precept o
their Great Leader. He had shown them IT
his letter to Plumb hat their error consisted
before in sparing life, and their murderous attack
on Wood last Wednesday night exhibited a de
termination on their part to merit no Longer
such reproach. They meant to "teach the Ad
ADMINISTRATION a lesson not soon TO be forgotten
in the very manner Gid had taught them, il
was their duty to do.

The Next Governor Of Ohio.

The news that came over the wires yester-
day afternoon from the Democratic Convention,
announcing the nomination by reclamation of
Rufus P. Ranney as our candidate for Cover.
nor, was received with hearty CALCULATIONS by
the Democrats Of this city. 1t is an earnest of
the good feeling and harmony ofthe Convention
and of its high appreciation of the qualifications
of Judge Ranney for the important post he is
to fill as standard bearer of the Democratic par
ty, that it was able to give its unanimous voice
to the man who is to be the leader Of the cam
paign.
Judge Rsnney is a we'll tried and true man
In the highest and most responsible positions
which his fellow citizens Of Ohio could confe
upon him, his discharge ofduty has been alike
honorable to himself and creditable to the great
principles of the Democratic party. Especially
as a member of the convention which formed
the present constitution of Ohio, did his great
talents, wisdom and practical good sense tend
to mould the institutions Of the State, and
to mark them with a true Democratic stamp.
On the bench OF the Supreme Court, the solid
qualities Of the man. combined with patience,
suavity and high integrity, not only comman-
ded the respect, but won the admiration and
attachment OF the entire bar Of Ohio. His nom
~ination will everywhere in Ohio be greeted with
hearty satisfaction. No man has a larger num-
Der of personal friends out of his party, nor
enjoys a more general confidence on the part
Of his W political friends. than Judge RAN
ney. We do not doubt therefore the proprie-
ty ofom assuming for him the title which we
so confidently place at the head Of our article,
that of" The Nt1t Governor Of the Stateof Ohto.''

which was enthusiastically received and unani-
mously adopted: 'a
Rssolved, That no former legislature OF Ohio
could cripple, and impair, the sovereignty OF the
State by contracting away its power to pay tax
es upon banks as upon other property; and that

empting the banks dom the ordinary burdens
of taxation, il utterly void as against the pro-
visions of the new Constitution aid the laws

other property is taxed,
Mr.. Mckenzie, of Allen County, then moved
the following which was passed unanimously
with great applause:
Resolved, That the Report Of the Treasury
Investigating Commission in regard to the
frauds in the State Treasury in connection with
the Banking Institutions Of the State, has de-
yeloped a startling and alarming degree ofabuse
and corruption in the management Of the inan-
ees of the State BY the Republican party, de-
handing the earnest attention of the People,
and vigilance in the execution Of the Indepen-
dent Treasury system.
The President read a resolution reported by
