the u. s, Supreme Court as of higher authority
than their own, and had so decided in 5. M Booths
case; at which many if not most Of the Republicans
were dissatisfied, and brought out A. Scott Sloan

TSs Democrats almost unanimously sympathized
and voted with thOse Republicans who sustained
JuSse Dixon, who has thus been elected by ma

As Wisconsin is Republican by at least Ten
thousand majority, and has been regarded as one

gave great advantages to the more conservative

"A correspondent writes us that the real end of the
sudden der for Europe of the Hon. Emanuel B.
Hart, Surveyor Of the Port, was not to look after
frauds on the revenue to receive legacy leit him
by an enauored Jewess, but to attend the fight be-
tween Heenan and SayeIs. 1t is well known that
Heenan and Hart are great friends the latter having
employed Heenan, for long time, to do nothing N the
Surveyors Office, at salary of $500, and that Hart
lost considerably by backing the Benisa Boy in his
contest with Monissey He has also now beted hesv-

TIE WRsTERE FREsHErs.-The telegraph gives all
vital particulars Of the Western freshets The risng
of the Scioto river has covered miles of valuable farms
with food carried away railway tracks, rooted up
telegraph poles. In West Columbus the inhabitants
have been driven from their lower floors, and their
visiting and outdoor work must be done Ia boats, A
canal tug is moored to blacksmith's chimney. On
the Central Ohio Railroad the freshet hiss done great
damage. Near Newark 4. is eaid that the track 10
covered with water for long distance. The Pits
bugh, Fort Way ne and Chicago Railroad, the Cleve-
land and Pittsburgh road the Steubenvs and Indians
road, are all very much injured. This sudden rise in
the rivers of Southern Ohio Is without precedent in
the history of recent year, When the swollen wates
reach Cincinnati and points below, the most disastrous
accounts must be expected.

THE MURpKn Ar OrruMwA, IOwA.--Thls mystsriOus

The MURDER AT OTrUMwA, Iowa. mysterious
murder seems now about 10 have some light thrown
upon It. The facts, briefly recspitulaed are these;
1.-TWO strange men, accompanied by beaut fal
young woman, apparently about lS years Of age, ase
lrst noticed at 0skaloosa next Ottqmwa and finally
at Eddyvle at all of which places che passed the
sister Of one Of the men, and occupied the same room
with him at the hotel The last aeen of them they left
Eddyville at dark pretending to I5turn to 0ttumwa
and the body of the murdered girl was found In the
river the morning Of the Both ult bearing marks Of
violence"
great excitement was raised at 0ttumwa, and q
public meeting was held. Officers of justice were in
pursuit of the supposed murdcrers and at the last ac
counts it thought that they would soon be taken.
1t is now supposed that the victim, at 6rst unknown
and mrecognized, was named Harvey, and that shs
had only few days before eoped from Rockford d.,
with man named Lawrepces who had either married
her or pretended to marry her. Measures were taken
to identify the body, and the case viii undoubtedly
sOOn be cleared up far as such an affair can be made
clear.

ALBANY, Friday, April 10, 1860.
The Governor has vetoed the West Washington
Market bin, which was laid on the table, where it will
very likely remain till the Governor sends in few
more of the same sort, when they viii be disposed Of
in a batch.
Nothing has yet been developed to show whether
any measures viii be taken to increase the revenue,
other than increasing direct taxes.
The Quarantine bill went up in balloon in the As
sembly tonight. Mr. Dwight moved to recommit the
bin with instructions 70 strike out the ensctng clause
and spoke forcbly against the BILL Mr.. COnking fol-
lowed on the same side and the motion prevailed by
large majority.
The Assembly passed a Bankrupt bill to-day, Or
rather amended the Two-thirds act so that debtor
may be discharged on his own application. The act
doe 9 not take effect till the first of April next.
The Senate is now (l0;4J o'clock discussing the bill
to abolish capital punishment, with fair prospect that
il will pas. The bill is essentially it came from the
Assembly.
There is now no reasonable prospect that The Legs
latme can aaionrn this week.
p. S.-ll:l5p. m.-The Capital Punishment bill
has passed. 20 to7. 1t slightly but not materially
amended SO Il has to 90 back to the Assembly, which
VIII undoubtedly concur. Thus there is at least one
measure Of this Legislature which the public will
