The Late Kidnappiur Cases.

The Columbus Journal of the 25th gives
some further and reliable particulars OF the
Morrow county kidnapping business. It
says: r
The slaves were three brothers belonging
to Messrs. Reed & Pollock, near Germantown,
KY, and they escaped from their masters the
latter part of May last. Marshal Sifford and
party, who succeeded in se;zing the negro at
the house which they went to, took circuit
Gus route, and reached the railroad station at
Ashley, some sixteen miles this side of Iberia.
They had walked through a drenching cold
rain the whole distance and were tired out
At this point they took a freight train for
this city, adm from this place went to Cincin-
matt, arriving there on Friday evening"
They Immediately took the fugitive before
Commissioner Nswhall, the usual ceremonies
hurriei through with, and be was remanded
into the custody of the claimant and taken
to old Kentucky.
The deputy and assistants who were detail
ed to 60 to the other two houses were not so
successful as Marshal Siford. At one of the
houses they found that the negro had left,
and as they were returning from the house,
they were met by several armed men who
asked them where they had been. They an
sWered that they were railroad men, and car
rying colored lantern, they were suffered
to pass, and they Immediately concealed
themselves. The other party, however, which
consisted of four men, were less Fortunate
They entered the house, but found no fugi-
tives. A couple of old women who were
seated by the ere quietly smoking theirpipes,
laughed heartily at them. Not liking to be
made fun of they left the house and were
met by large party Of men who surround
ed them. A struggle ensued, in which one
of the slave catchers states that he shot the
right hand fingers off negro, and also shot
a white man in the groin. This, however,
is his story. Several shots were fred, and
two Of the slave catchers were taken pris-
oners, had their arms taken from them, and
their clothes considerably torn. They state
that their money was also takenS and that
rope was procured to hang them, but aban-
doning this, platoon was drawn up to shoot
them, but they were prevented by the inter
ference of one Of their party. They procured
a pair Of scissors and cut their hair of close
to their scalps-lectured them on the evils of
slave catching-set them free, and chased
them with clubs and stones out of the neigh
borhood. The sad experience of the slave
catchers on that dark, dolefaI and rainy night.
will be salutary lesson to them through
life. E5 -
We Learn, from the. Cincinnati papers, that
the whole matter will be laid before the gov
eminent; but the difficulty win be to sscer-
tain the names of those engaged in the trans
action. s.fs.5i.i..i4l 81 a.,.

The Unburiod Dead Of srrin.

The Boston Traveller says its Syrian cores
pondent writes that more than ten thousand
human bodies still lie upon the sides of Mount
Hermon, in full view from the Sea of Galilee
and the Mediterranean, upon the Plains of
Sidon, the ancient Phenicia blackeninQ in
the sun, and their blood still cries out to
heaven for vengeance. It isan Oriental Gus
tom toleave the murdered dead unburied un-
til justice has been satisfied, and although in
Syria the effect of the climate upon dead
body requires its burial within twenty-four
hours Of the departure Of the spirit from its
earthly tenement, these bodies have remained
unburied and in a complete state Of preser-
vatiOni
In the court yards Of the palaces, in the
barracks, and wherever the Christian has
fallen there lies the body now, still awaiting
the vengeance of heaven upon the oppressors
and the slayers Of the Christians of Mt. Leb-
anon. Without entering into an explana-
ton Of the physical causes which have pro-
duced this miHlaSyfoatioH, it is sufficient to
say that the testimony of all confirms the
statement. Wolves and hyenas have of
course done their work, but in all enclosed
premises the presence Of the unburied dead
remains a silent appeal to Him who declared,
'fVengeance is mine, win repay, saith the
Lord"

Editors Leader;-The Republicans Of this
place and vicinity met together Saturday al-
tOrnoon, Tor the purpose Of raising a Lincoln
pole. They procured enc an hundred and
ten feet long, but on account of the liberal
quantity Of rain which fell in the afternoon,
they thought it best to suspend the raising Of
the long pole, and therefore, instead of uu-
furling the banner, with The names OF Lincoln
and Hamlin, to the breezes, at the height Of
ITO feet they unfurled il at the height Of
about 60 feet. A place had been prepared
for the speakers on the common, but for the
reason above stated, the crowd repaired to a
hall. A banner WIS tackled scross one end
Of lhe hall, upon which were the names of
Lincoln and Bamiin. Geo. L. Wood, Esq.
Of Warren, was then introduced, and spoke
for an hoIr, in an eloquent and impressive
manner. He traced the history of the par
ties up to the time Of the final split of the
Democratic party, when he took up s. A.
Douglas, and ptinted him in colors which
were not euViable. w. D. Forrest of War
rem, was then presented to the meeting, and
made one Of his charaG eristic speeches.
His speech was eloquent and logical. He laid
down his premises, and then drew his concu-
sioas with master hand. He spoke of the
tariff, the homestead bill, the Pacific railroad,
and tae Hesitation of the government gener-
ally. His speech will long be remembered.
After the close of the speaking, Demo-
crat asked Mr.. Forrest some questions, which
were answered in such manner as was not
very satisfactory to the questioner, as tine re-
peated cheers of the audience plainly indisa-
ted. There are but three Democrats in this
vicinity. After three cheers for Lincoln and
Hamlin, the meeting adjourned. You may
set down " Old Geaugan as true asever. The
people are al lenthusiam. ]. C

The bark What Cheer, which arrived st
San Francisco from Yokohama, July 1871
brought news of considerable interest fror.
Japan. The japanese corvette Candinmar-
ruh had arrived at home from San Francisco
carrying the news of the arrival of the EN-
bassy in the United States. The Japs'
were taken by surprise at the fattering news
received o. the gorgeousness and hospitality
extended 70 their representatives, but anxiety
still existed to hear the official report from
the Embassy. The hostile attitude, reported
by previous advices, between the Princes Of
the empire, has been reconciled by eompro-
mises. The real cause Of the difficulty is not
known TO outside barbarians, on account of
the conflicting and contradictory reports
Foreign merchandise hsd found its way to
Jeddo; American cottons and wooIlens were
principally displayed for sale from the stores
Of the principal merchants. A well defined
hostility exists between the native officials
and merchants, the former being afraid that
the others viii get wealthy with the trade
with foreigners, and thus WELD a money pow
er. Consequently spies are placed over the
merchants, end every means employed to re-
duce their income, in order that they may
have no wealth. A Portuguese man-of-War
had arrived st Yokohama, prepared TO enter
into a treaty of commerce with Japan. At
last adVices the officials empowered to nego-
tiate were at JeddO.

A happy medium has been found for bon
nets. While there is less Of them than ever

not thrown up in the preposterous way which
has incurred suchjust eensure. One duck"

ofblack and white lace, the front trimmed
with white on either side Of band Of light
green velvet, a white marabout feather tipped
with green dropping deliciously, and the in
side trimmed with white and green and gold
Magenta is a color very much in repute--a
brilliant red-and here is a bonnet Of Ma
gents velvet, trimmed at the front with lilac,
the cape and crown Of white tulle, trimmed
with Magenta, and the inside with white flow
ers and silk. The unanimous verdict, is, that
the front shall be close to the face There is
q charming bridal bonnet Of plain White-cord-
ed silk, with double cape. Round the
crown is a pointed leaf, and the trimming is
white illusion and lace. The decorations on
the outside are white roses, green leaves, and
beads, and inside orange blossoms. OF orna-
mems there is no end of delicate and divine
ideas Gilt figures largely in all, but Madam
Demorest clearly asserts that tinselis +" in bad

is also an entirely new and very clever idea
IA chain Of medalions to encircle the bon
net. Prices were never better.

has been furnished money and means by
Black Republicans to stump the country for

one has right to an equal division of the

himself or not; repudiates all religion, the

SUMMARY.

If we have indicated in this hasty sketch of
the well-dressed woman desire to keep up
with the fashions, our duty is done, and the
grave talk of infinitely detailing all the in
tricacies of the toilette, may be left to pro-
fessiOnal mOdistes. We will say, however,
that Bayadere stripes have gone out now
altogether, and will seeno more opening days;
that the bodies of dresses are made round;
that small fiounees are mostly employed for
evening dresses; that the favorite material
for children's clothes is plain Irish poplin;
that walls are still worn round; that pocket
handkerchief are stylish only when embroid-
cred in the smallest and most minute borders;
and that the fashion Of this world passeth
away, which is Ia good matter for fall open
ing.

may be turned down from the delicate ankle
for the house, or may closely encase it for the

CLoAKs AND MANTILLAs.

1t is generally conceded that the loose sack
will be most commonly worn. There are nu-
merous designs, adapted TO all ages, and, ap-
parently, to both sexes. A new idea is the
Zouave jacket which fits neatly to the waist
and is accompanied by a cloak, so that there
is accommodation for all conditions of the at
mosphere The fringes and embroideries are
very elegant, and the cost Of a silk sack varies
from $50 to $3.50. Velvet maintains its
proud supremacy. A cloak of this rich
material lined with purple silk, and embroid-
cred at the edges with machine-stitch in
vivid colors, may, VIC think, be called a
"stunneE" For the opera, silks Of the most
gorgeous stripedness have been imported in
bewildering profusion.
A novel and pleasing invention is Turkish
cloak, over which, from the left shoulder, de-
pends a graceful scarf, while the right shoul-
der is perfectly plain. For misses, there is a
cunning cloak denominated Zara, quite Ara
besque in design. 1t is fitted to the shoulders
in sack lorm, with Bishop sleeves and Japan
ese cuffs, and has two collars.
