pantaloons-which were taken from his bed

kindness, left the pants, but stole the par
sons hat, and proceeding to his house,
deposited in his hat dozen ofeggs and then
left. He afterwards entered Fred Smith s

them. and left the following apology.

Law AT TIMpucToo-A correspondent
furnishes us the subjoined decision of JUS
tice of the peace, recently rendered at Tim
buctoc.
1t is necessary to premise that the blocks
in question were dumped for the plaintiff
on spot of ground used by the miners as
commoo property The defendant had pre-
viously occupied il as place OF deposit for
blocks, and deemed, therefore, that this pre-
occupancy of the soil, vested in him all right,
title, interest and claim to whatever species
of property might be found there Acting
on this principle, he converted the blocks of
plaintiff to his own purposes. The magis-
trate, it will be seen, supports and defends
him in his singular claim. The man Mullen
alluded to, is the one who delivered the
blocks:
DAVIS VS.. McALLIs.-It is held by the Court,
that the right to the blocks vested in Mullen at
the time of their delivery at the usual place for
delivering the same, and that the only hold that
plaintiff could have upon them, would have been
by lien for material furnished and that failing
to assert his lien, plaintiff must look to Mullen
for his pay and, consequently, cannot maintain
an action against defendant for the same. Case
dismissed with costs to plaintiff.
Tie inference is, that the blocks were
seized by defendant to satisfy debt of Null
lens, although our correspondent does not
say so.

Deer Crock Tnnnsl Company.

Any person who. within the last four years,
has travelled along the San Juan and Marys-
vile road, and had arrived at the hillside
between Browns Hotel and the Anthony
House-not more than heaf a mile from the
laiter-by looking down into the bed Of
Deer Creek, would see that some extensive
mining operation was going on. The report
of blast would probably be heard, or the
immense derrick observed to move upon Ets
pivot, or the cleaning pick descend upon a
flinty substarce-all denoting the.activity Of
energetic labor. II he were to go down to
where the workmen are employed, he would
find them in ditch from twenty to thirty
feet deep, with wall of stone on either side.
He would ind that these workmen, in the
period mentioned, although employed most
of the time, have only accomplished the dis
tance ef;about 500 feet. This will convey an

A Miserable Device.

The Douglas papers are very coolly de-
nyiug all responsibility for any of the sins
Of Buchanan's administration. They are
willing to give it and its acts over to the un-
merrited condemnation of an indignant peo-
pie. How refreshing They helped to
elect il and have supported it in almost all
its acts and yet they want to be accepted
by the people as clear of all its sins. Like
Herod Of old, they wash their hands in to,
ken of innocency. But the people will ac-
cept of no such pleas in bar. They will
bold them as common criminals and will
make sure of the future by placing no con-
fdence in any of the set. They must share
in the results of the work Of their own
hands. Such device cannot win.-San-

GFrom the Paris (Ky.) Citizen, Southern Opposition
A southern Tribute 10 Mr.. Lincoln.


A southern Tribute 10 Mr.. Lincoln.
Mr. Lincoln though decided Republican
and a complete exponent of the purposes
and spirit of the party, is not the object OF
those popular prejudces that attach to Mr..
Seward, his strongest competitor for the
nomination. He is man of ability, not
equal to Mr.. Seward in culture or in his ex-
perience of public affairs, but is considered
by many as MS equal in natural force of in
tellect. We heard one of the discussions
between him and Douglas in the famous
campaign of 1858, and VIC certainly regar-
ded him as full match, at least, for that
distinguished politician. There are some
things in the personal character and career
of Mr.. Lincoln which will give him great
popularity, if they do not excite enthusiasm
among the people. Born Of humble pa
rentage, and passing the years of his child
hood, youth and early manhood amid the
hardships of the backwoods of Kentucky,
Indiana and Illinois, acquiring an education
by his own labors as best he could, and grad.
ually working his way to distinction, his
life has been one we'll calculated to excite
the admiration and sympathy of voters
most of whom are themselves working men,
When to this is added the purity of his
private life, the general recognition oi
which has given him, in his own State, the
sobriquet of "Honest Old Abe" we are
compelled to admit that the Chicago con.
vehtion has nominated the very hardest
man TO beat that it could possibly have Civ.
en- us.
Mr.. Lincoln's antecedents were Whig.-
He was warm friend and admirer of Mr..
Clay, and was, for many years, the acknowl
edged leader of the Wing party in Illinois
x 4 4 The question now is, chow is
this ticket to be beaten?" We confess that
in the divided, detracted and chaotic condi
tion of all other parties, the problem is ex
tremely difficult Of solution.

How Lccompton was Carried,

The public may remember that we were,
for some little time unable to believe that
the Lecompton constitution-the endorse
ment of wholesale fraud and villainy as
condensed in and represented by that celo-
brated document-could be forced through
Congress by the management of Mr.. Bu-
chanan. This disbelief was founded on
some lingering faith in the honor of that
Executive coterie-a faith which it is hard
at any time to yield up wholly We were
in error, however The infamous concoc-
ton of fraud named above, did pass the
House of Representatives, and now we see,
in the revelations of Mr.. Covode's commit
tee, the reasons for its passage. Men in
high places were bought with money for
that purpose. Thirty thousand dollars
at least were used by the great agent in
the purchase and sale of votes under this
administration, directly to influence few
men; and while Wendell thought three
votes would be enough, the President in
sisted on obtaining five. For this reason,
undoubtedly, the sum used was larger than
the immediate purchaser thought necessary,
indeed the chief Executive proved himself
the more liberal handler of the money re-
ceived froro fat public contracts than any
other man.
This investigating committee is doing
the country a service greater than could
have been expected, much as it makes our
ears tingle with shame TO find the public
service so thoroughly peryaded by corrup-
tion. The whole management of great
questions by this Administration has been
disgraceful beyond parallel; dsgraceful not
only for the intrinsic wrong of those meas
ures themselves, but in the utterly unprin-
cipled and dishonorable means by which
they have been pressed. To exert partisan
influence, aud to be urgent in advocacy Of
measures resolved on by any Administra.
tioD, is reasonable, perhaps, or at least tc
be expected, but to buy the wanting halt
dozen votes outright with money, is an
event not recorded in our history previous
to the Lecompton shame. Besides these
revelations, the hypocritical solcitude of a
certain person in regard to the use of mon.
ey in elections becomes shade too loath
some even to recall it to mind u. s. Gag
The people of Sandusky county should
understand that M. p Bean, editor of tho
Democratic Messenger, of this town, go
$4,000 of this money.
