FALSE PRESERVATION AT CRITICAL MOMENT.
The Cleveland Paindealer puts forth the following
extraordinary statement in regard to Jesse Boorn,
one of the gang of countereiters recently arrested
at Burton, Ohio:
"There is strange history connected with
Jesse Boorn, one of the men arrested at Burton.
Some forty years ago a cold blooded murder was
perpetrated in the State of Vermont.-The
murdered man was a brother in law of Boorn,
named Cooley, and circumstances pointing to Boorn
and his brother as the guilty parties They were
tried convicted aud sentenced to be hung. The
execution day came, and large crowds poured into
the village to see the murderers swing. They
assembled the scafold and the moose was placed
around their necks, when the supposed dead man
appeared in the crowd! The Boorns were set
free just as they reached deaths door, and imme-
diatey fed the State. jesse Boorn, now nearly
seventy wears old, confessed to Mr. Hackett of
Burton, that he and his brother did murder Cooley,
the person who appeared before the gallows being
a man from New Jersey, who bore striking
resemblance to the deceased, and who was expressly
hired to play the vllanous part. The affair created
a great excitement at the time throughout New
England, and lawyers retained for the defence in
desperate murder cases have since quoted the
Boorn case for the benefit of their clients"

An Old Error Corrected,


The assertion OF the Times and
Herald oil yesterday, that louisa
na was slave territory whea ceded
by France to the United States;
and, hence, thu, the enactment OF
the Missouri Compromise was an
entertainment OF the North upon
the South, inasmuch rs II excluded
"Southern Institutions from a vast
country in which they legally
existed at the time that country
was acquired, is purely gratuItous
and false.
Fortunately, an eminent legal
gentleman OF this State, (Goy.
koerner.) we'll qualified by his
habits oil research, hislegal acumen
and general scholarship, to investi.
gate a question oil this kind, la.

once the legal tenure by which

and that though they were na
