THE VorE OF 0HIo.--The story started by
the Ohio Statesman to the effect, that the vote
OF Ohio for President would not be couBted
because the Governor did not issue bis election
proclamation until three days after the time
prescribed by law, has pretty much died o ut
and nobody seems to be seriously affected by
II. As sensation item, it answered well its
brief purpose. Upon the discovery that all that
was required was q majority Of the electors APP
pointed, a2d that Mr.. Lincoln had that, the in
tsrest Of the thing died out very good natured.

could hardly be expected to nullify an express
provision Of the constitution. The conception

The Harper's Ferry Trials.

The trial of STEVENS, was concluded on
the 4th inst. The speeches of counsel,
for the defence and prosecution, were merely
OF political character. Mr.. SENNorT of
Boston, for the prisoner, went into history
of the rise and progress off the Republican
party. Mr.. HUNTER for the State, had
20 confidence in the Union meetings held at
the North. The John Brown invasion had
been benefit to the South, as it had shown
them the position in which they were placed.
He referred to Mr.. H1cKMAN's Boosting of
the eighteen millions of Northern men, and
declared the South was prepared for any
emergency" The jury, after an absence of
but fifteen minutes, returned verdict of
guilty. STEVENS received the verdict with
most perfect Indifference, and smiled at the
announcement.
The trial of HAZLETT was commenced on
the 9th. The latest despatch says:
CHARLESTON, Feb. mime witnesses were
examined today, and their testimony was con-
clusively to the point that Hazlett was ono of

timony was as to the color of the prisoners

that it was of light color. His hair at the

We have news from London to Jan. 26.
The Geographic summary is as follows:
FRANcE.-Tne Liverpool Post contains
the following We are in condition to
affirm that the following statement is true:
The Emperor of the French has written a
second letter to the Pope. 1t was brief but
emphatic. His Majesty is willing and
anxious to remain, as hitherto, the eldest
son OF the Church, and continue deferential
to the Holy Father in all things spiritual
but if his policy opposes the late PROPOSE
tions, let him remember Henry With.
The Pope having called for the withdrawal
OF the French troops from Rome, the EN-
peror in the same letter, says they shall be
withdrawn if his Holiness persists, but that
the Emperor will cause months notice to
be given to all strangers resident in the
holy city.
The Paris Pays says that on the conclu.
sion OF the treaty of commerce between
France and England, negotiations with 9th
er Powers for the conclusion of similar trea,
ties will be commenced
The rumor had been current in Paris that
the Emperor had intended, as an earnest of
his pacific intentions, to reduce his army
100000 men.
An official report was in preparatinn on
the question of abolishing the heavy cavalry
in the French army, on account of its value
having been much diminished by the recent
improvement in artillery.

A letter from Leghorn states that an
English frigate had entered that harbor and
saluted the town, the batteries OF which at
once responded. The English salute was
interpreted as recognition by the British
Government of the fall of the Grand Duke,
and as a first fruit of the combined French
and English policy on Italian affairs Yer.

The Canada news is of no Importance
farther than it indicates a continued differ
ence between the Pope and the French
Emperor, relative to the surrender of the
province of Romagna. The Pope, after due
deliberation, refuses to yield to the Emper-
ors request, and there is no probability ola
change of policy at Rome. NAPOLEON has
not yet given the decisive order for the
withdrawal of the French troops from
Rome. As soon as that is done, we shall
probably hear of a rebellion in Rome.

A Bullet in Mans Heart Eighteen Years

On Friday, June 18th, 1860. we made post
mortem examination upon the body of Mr.. John
Kelly, who resided at tho time Of his death in the
town of Black Brock.
In June. 1912. he was accidentally shot at
Chatham Four Corners, o place on the Western
Railroad. about twenty five miles east of Albany.
The bullet passing through three boards before
striking him, entered bis right shoulder, passed
towards the heart. and lodged under the collar
bone near where it is united to the breast bone
This is substantiated by the amount OF disease
found at this place, and the farther fact that the
surgeon passed his probe in about four or five
inches before reaching the ball. We found one
