Verily 8 dozen bigger stealings by your friends. Do you un- ed a weight of 12, 000 pounds up the distance of five feet 1 perpendicular, five times every minute. This weight was put on by way of experiment, and doea by no means indicate the power ot the engine. The name of the inventor is Soloman. He is about 55 years of age, a native of Prussia, and has resided in this country uver twenty yar. His talents and abilities raised him to the honorable and responsible posLi tion of a President ol a College in his native land, before he was twenty-five years of age. In the year 1821 he united with a large iiumber of his country-men in asking of the King of Prussia certain constitutional rights and privileges for the people, which the same sovereign had repeatedly promised to them several years before. For this often ce against the " divine right," Mr. Soloman and many of his compatriots were caat into prison. Mr. Soloman waa sentenced totwenty-one years' imprisoment on bread and water, and had served out eight years of his term, when he escaped. His escape was effected by tho kindly assistance of Mr. Henry Urachman, a well-known merchant ot ihis city, and who now resides on Fifth street, betweeu Smith and Park. Soloman and Brachmau both fled to Vienna, in Austria, and were there overtaken by the Prussian police. Bra ch man, however, made out to elude his pursuers, and finutly reached this country in safety. Soloman was taken hack and aguin con lined. On the iJOth of Jauuary, 18tl, Soloman mode another attempt to escape, and wns this time successful. Ho soon aftor settled in Ibis city, and hero he has found facilities fur prosecuting those scientific researches and experiments which now promise to result in fume, wealth and honor to himself, glory to the city of his adoption, and incalculable benefit to the whole human family. One week from to-day the engine will be agnin in operntion at the Machine shop on Main street, opposite Thirteenth. All interested in such matters, wilt (lien have an opportunity ot investigating the luvention for themselves, Mr. Soloman will immediately commence the construction of another engine on the same principle, of 351) horse power. We expect to see steam entirely superseded by carbon, in the course of a lew years, for loco-motive and mechanical purposes. Cin. Aflat. Mr. WtRSTin is now at the Revere House in Boston. His health is much improved, nnd he will return to Washington in two or three weeks.

Lit evert tub stand or its own bottom. It is yet fresbWi the recollection of the people how Mr. Chase, in the campaign of 1848, pressed forward iu proclaiming the utter worthlessness of both the old parties and the necessity for a third party i how be spoke of the Cab men as the " mean 0u men," and bow then and aeverul yean previous he insisted upon the idea that slavery, as a topic in politics, was paramount to all other topica ; and that no man, whatever might bo the tendency of his feelings in regard to slavery, could he trusted unless he would pledge himself to make that the paramount business. It is also fresh in the recollection of all, how the " mean Cass men " in a few mon".hs after these denunciations, turned around and rewarded him by electing him to the United States Senate, just as a dog that has been kicked and whipped licks the hand of his master and how Mr. Chah, after being elected, fed these same " mean Cass men " at tho American Hotel by a fine supper, which he did not stay to holp eat; and how soon aftor he declared himself " a democrat unreservedly." The metamorphosis was pretty sudden on both sides, but as it was very much a question of tusto, third parties could do little more thou consider themselves, as Gen. Cabs did in regard to the River and Harbor bill, " mure spectators."The pretence on the part of Messrs. On ask and Town shkhd waa that they hoped to indoctrinate the Demo-crt:'!'; party with abolition sentiments, and make it an Aiola very party ; on Oir same plau, pruhtihly, that a man puts a lew spoonsfull of water into a glass uf brandy to make it all water, Locofocoisni wit ho nt Opposition. The Locofocos have been modestly hinting that the Whigs had no business with politics or olhcea under the new Consiilutioo, but lhat everything in thosu lines belonged to the special friends of that instrument. They must havo forgotten that the band of union in the L"cofoco party was an outside baud of opposition, and not an iuternnl attachment to principle; nnd that the removal of this outsido baud would dis-unite thepud-ding-stoiio conglomeration of Locofocoism, and the whole rudo mass would tumble into its original elements, which, little and big, would clash with each other like " atoms and systems iuto ruin hurled." Just withdraw Whig opposition, and a scene would ensue among the harmonious Democracy, which the spirit of prophecy con alone predict, and the pen of prophecy ahuio describe. Our young friend of the Circleville Herald, feeling something uf that spirit, describes that scene as follows: " Then would commence a war which it makes the heels of our boots turn pale to contemplate then the hards would ' prevaricate the softs ' similicote patriotism fulminate, heroism splurge, and progress 'go it whilo it's young,' while all tossed themselves into 'positions of altitudes Then would conduct bo exposed, time-honored doctrines be denounced, nnd 'rogues fall out and honest men get their dues.' The great Sanhedrim of democracy would bo iu 'confusion worso conlounded,' and the priests who minister at the altar would profane the sanctuary by their violence and villainy. There would be encounters, developing heroes compared with whom the far-famed Ajnx and Ulysses would he 'small potatoes The grent champions whose blows only foes havo felt, would, from inherent cumhativeucas or the hive of booty, attack each other. "Col. Mednry would mount Rufus P. Spalding with a 'yip,' and give his sorrel-top a deeper red. Kdson ...... ..

Wo yesterday gave the official proceedings of the Judicial and Senatorial District Conventions. With the nominee for the office of Senator, Mr. John- Cochran, of Pickaway, we have not the pleasure of a personal acquaintance, but from those who are acquainted, we learn -that he is an excellent man, and will make a good Senator. The political connection between Franklin and Pickaway counties, will soon make them better acquainted wiih each other, and the Whigs of Franklin now have a chance to introduce themselves favorably to their brethren of Pickaway, by giving Mr. Cochran a glorious vote. He will be found to be a truo and substantial man, fit to be trusted, and worthy of the wunn support of the Whigs of the district. The Judicial Convention had it not in their power to mako a bad selection from the candidates before them, and the only possible question was one between three gentlemen, the merits of either of whom could not be questioned. They took the one who was the oldest of the candidates, and who has had the longest practice at the bar. Wiih Mr. Bates weAiv a per sonal acquaintance, and know that in speaking our own sentimonti, we spenk tho sentiments uf all who know bim intimately and well, that a more upright and true man never drew breath.

IIlKhcr Low In Another Shape. We hove had some controversy with our friends, about tho "hicherlaw" notions which thoy have en- rtiiiiud nn the slavery question. They have felt it their duty to oppuite the execution of the fugitive law, cause they thought it interfered with their duty as Christians and as good citizens. We have endeavored enforce Iho idea that any such notion is fatal to all law and order, and that, when we admit that every rson n n a right to decide for himself what lawa he obey nnd what ho will uut obey, wo bike a sten hat lends us at once into anarchy and confuaiou. We avo told i hem that the idea would be seized upon to stily mobs and riots in the South, and all kinds of iolations of laws that ve of the Norlh think ought to be Held sacred. When we reproach the South, thoy make the same eicuie that our Northern friends urge. There is a higher law that calls for a different action. id who can object?

This js all plum and understandable. It is tho su premo law of the land. The President, and the officers of the government everywhere have .worn a sol emn oath to see that the laws are enforced and obeyed. This means all the laws io force, whether they wore passed in 1818, when the above was enacted, or in 18.'j0, when the fugitive slave law was passed. I Now, we have a class of people at the South, who have clamored most violently, and ridiculed most se verely, the higher law notions of the North, and who were great on the necessity of obedience to the law; but who, now that the case is somewhat changed, assume tho same course of argument, and justify themselves in the violation of law on the score of paramount duty, so-cred obligation, &c., just as flippantly, and apparently, list bs sincerely as their "higher law" friends of the Norlh. Let us cite some cases. Our citizens want to arm themselves and crossover the Gulf to the assistance of the Cubitus. Rut the above law stares them in tha face, and forbids. It cannot be done as they ansa to do ' t, without a palpableviolationof law. They know if. Every body knows it. What is to be donef Why, hold a public meeting, and resolve that duty and sacred right, and all that sort of thing, demand that we should trample tho law under foot, and go in for the Higher law. Accordingly, we find ihis thing doing alt over the South. The " Higher law " idea, is as prevalent there now as it ever was in the north, in the palmiest days of anti-slavery excitement. Let ns cite a few instances t A large and "t"J"it. mroiitig was held in New Orleans, on the evening of the 3;)d ull., convened upon Higher LawDivine Law. These phrases are used interchangably by some, as f they meant the same thing. We do not so under stand them. Divine law is Quchangable truth, revealed or norevealed, and man's subjection to that at all times, and under all circumstances, we admit and even advocate. Higher low is the opinion of the individual, and varies with bis whims, cup rices, education, inter ests, wishes. That such a " higher law " should be as sumed as the governing, decisive rule of action in cases where it disagrees with the legal enactmenta of the land, we deny. This higher law may coincide, in many instances, exactly with ihe Divine law, and again they may disagree entirely. The"higher law," not the Divine law, is the rule of action urged for univer sal adoption by Chase, and others of his school, when they urge the duty of every individual to judge of the law as well as the evidence. Against the application of such a test to the laws of any country, as a rule for obedience or disobedience, we protest. This is our reply to the Ohio Timet, and others of that ilk.
