The Real Issues,

Whatever issues have existed in former
Presidential contests in this country, the
following statement of the present position
of parties, by the Nel0 HaUen Register, is as
correct as it is clear and concise
There are practically but two part les in
the present con test-the Democratic, which
is guided by the obligations of the Constitu-
tlon-whiCh seeks to render equal and ex-
act justice to all men"--whiCh protects every
man in the enjoyment ofhs religious opin-
lons-which leaves to each State the ar.
rangements of its own domestic affairs
which endeavOurs TO cement the bonds of the
Union, by iraternal feeling among the sey-
erOl States-and which would make our
country an asylum of the oppressed of all
nations.
The opponents OF the Democratic party
are Of all creeds and colors-and have two
well defined characteristics one OF which is
the persecution of men for their religious be.
liet--(a hideous spirit)--and the other, a de-
termination to dictate to the people Of other
sections OF the country on the subject of
slavery, or breuk up the Union! They are
now urging The people on to civil war in
hansas--throwing obstacles in the way of
carrying out the laws of Congress--denounc
ing the Constitution as in the way of their
internal schemes--and doing their best to
destroy all lraternal harmony among the
people of the different States. 1t will not
take a patriotic voter long to determine
which party he ought 10 support.

-, - Ohio Slate Journal.
1.-THE above be true, and, coming from the
leading and central organ of Fusionism in the
state, we have no right to dispute it, what,
III the name OF common sense, is the use OF
plhng up the taxes on the people, by holding
an ertrd session Reasons sufficient saw
The Guernsey Times, although the editors
last fall to make the people of this county
believe they would be greatly relieved L
Fusionists enough were elected to carry the
sway in the Legislature, boldly proclaimed
that the taxes were "TOO HIGH BY ONE
HALF" Now, however, we see them bow
the craven knee to party, and slavishly raise
Their voice contrary to their better iudment
we verify believe, and below out "REA-
SONS SUFFICIENT !" The Farmers,
Mechanics and Merchants, who will have to
bear the brunt of the burthen of Taxation,
now that the rich Bankers and eighteen mil
lions Of dollars Of State stocks, in the hands
OF rich spectators and shavers, have been
exempted from taxation-we repeat, the
Farmers, Merchants and Mechanics of
Guernsey county, and all over the State
will have chance to give in their expert
ence, and say their say on the second Tues
day of October, as to the 'sufficiency' of the
reasons for holding an extra session and
appointing three smelling committees" to
sit during the recess, for electioneering pur-
poses, to be paid at the rate of four dollars
per day out of their hard earned funds
Any body with half an eye can see, by the
way the elections this spring have turned
out, that the great mass of the people are
getting heartily sick of the 'lying promises
OF the fusionists, and their class legislation
in favor of the rich at the expense ofthe
hard working bone and muscle of the coun.
try with their pretended love of the colored
man to cloak it all !--GuernSey Jefersonian.

NEW YORK, June =.
The 0riziba, from San Juan with 450 pas
sengers from California, brought down by
the Sierra Nevada, brought Nicaragua dates
up to the 20th..
The transit route through Nicaragua is
again open. Quiet is restored in Nicaragua,
the Costa Ricans having evacuated the count
ry without risking another battle.
President Mora and staff left on the 26th
of April. his army followed almost immedia-
tely. The cholera has made sad havoc in
the ranks of the Costa Rican army.
Gen, Walker landed at Virgin Bay on the
30th, only a few hours after the last detach
ment of the enemy had left.
Walker is in good health. The Nicaragua
army is generally in good condition, except.
ing at Grenada, where the fever has been very
severe. Several Americans have fallen vic,
Tins to it. General James Walker, the bro.
ther OF the GenOsnl died on the 18th, at Ma.
saya. Edmund Randolph Is dangerously
ill.
General HOrnsby is appointed TO com.
.mand the meridinal department, comprised
of Guiana Costa Rica.
Advices from Costa intimate that the
country is full Of internal commotion in
prospect to overthrow Gen. Mora
The election being held at Nicaragua, il is
considered certain that Rivas would be elec.
ted President.
The British frigate Eurydice and steamer
Hemies were at San Juan, but made no op'
position to the landing of passengers.

Turn them out.

The Fusionists, it is well known, have an
undoubted majority in the present House oI
Representatives. That has been DEM
onstrated in the election of Speaker, in
ejecting several Democrats from their seats
and in appointing a rowing Commission to
take Fusion testimony in Kansas for purpo'
ses of the Presidential campaign. Two
outrages have recently been committed by
members of that body, one by Herbert, a
Know Nothing member from California in
the shooting of waiter, and the other by
Brooks, in the caneing of Sumner. Let this
Fusion House now purge itself of both the
obnoxious members. They have the power.
Let them do it, or forever after hold their
peace ClevS. PLaindedler.

The Scene in the Sennte.

In the whole history Of the legislation of
Congress day Of greater violence and more
excitement than yesterday was. is unknown.
The two days speech Of Senator Sumner, we
are panied to say, was little moe than It's
sue of personal accusation and assault, and
charges against all Of his opponents without
the slightest effort u sustain their truth 9TH
er than here and there citing newspaper
paragraph penned in malice and for the ex-
press purpose Of deceiving the public. Such
was the substance of Mr.. Summers violent
harangue, which was of course interlarded
with clssical illusions; many Of them drag
ged in by the ears, as it were into unappro-
pirate connections, His personal viIlif-
cation and abuse of Senator Butler, than
whom more considerate and higher toned
gentleman never graced seat in national
councils, caused a blush ofshame to mantle
the cheeks Of all present who respect the
charcter Of the body before whom it was ut.
tered; becuse it was wholly unjust and un.
true, and, in style, far better suited to some
low uoggery in a region Of country where
billingsgate is uttered with impunity, because
it is not customary there to resent and pun.
ish such language personally Senator Douglas
olcourse came in. for due share Of the choice
epi the is which the graceful senator from
Massachusetts, showered around with volu-
bility that would have graced the fou lest
mouthed fishwoman in all London. His
reply,was as well as those of Senators Mason
and Cass, were marked with much more
moderation Of temper than we dreamed Ell.
ther of them could command under the cir
cumstances. 1t was made very clear to us
that no olher man who ever served in either
branch Of Congress could "hold a candle"
to Senator Sumner in the elegant. dignifed
and respectable work of "slinging slush. -

died of dropsy, and was buried in Middlesex
VT, and it being desirable to remove the
corpse to Pomfret, recently, the body was
disinterred, and found to have become per-

least altered from the appearance of man
at his death. The corpse weighed five hun
dred and fifty pounds. What is more re-
markable the body of girl, buried by his
side, was wholly consumed, only few of

carried by Black Republican at a very early
day-the victory having been achieved, as
all the victories of that party are, by bribery
and deception.

More about Mail Routes.

We stated last week that, in consequence
OF the mails between Chillicothe and Athens
being now transported upon the Railroad.
the stages had been taken off of that route,
and that several Postoflices were therefore
deprived of their usual mail facilities. We
then suggested that route should be es-
tablished from this place through Aliens
vile to Ratliflsburgh, and back via. Locust
Grove, Cat which point there should be an Of
fice) and Elk P, o. to Macarthur.
We have since learned that there is no
mail from here to Prattsvile also, that an
Office is badly needed at Aiken's Mill. The
latter place is the center of thickly settled
neighborhood, and is situated about seven
miles from any post office. Efforts to es-
tablish an Office there have been made here
tofore, but from some cause, unknown to
those interested, have failed. A postofIice
should also be established at Hartley's Mill,
the people around which are in much the
same fix as those of the Aiken neighbor-
hood. A mail route running as follows
would accommodate the people in the best
possible manner: From Macarthur via
Prattsville, Atkins Mill to Wilkesvillo and
back via. Hartley's Mill, Eagle Furnace and
Vinton Furnace to Macarthur. The coun-
try through which this route would run is
rapidly improving, and the people anxious
for better mail accommodations, are willing
to aid in any manner they possibly can, in
procuring the establishment of the route.
