DELINQUENT List.

For the qualification of our neighbor. we
will state that we propose to have the ODE
linquent List" published in the Marshall
County Democrat" The publishers will
charge the county at the same rates they
charge individuals-no moreno Less
There is no good reason why a county
should nave her printing done for one hall
that individuals have to pay; particularly
when the delinquent taxpayers have to
foot the bill. We have posted ourself in
reference to the prices charged in several
of our neighboring counties, for printing
delinquent lists; and find that the amount
paid for the publication Of our list last fall,
was less than is usually charged for a list
of that size, and il was got up In a more
workman like manner, than many others
Who ever heard of Republican Auditor
getting the delinquent list published in a
Democrat paper, when there was IA Repub.
lican sheet printed in the county?

As 'the Local announced in our last
issue that We were gone, "vamoosed'' &c,
we have thought that probably portion Of
our readers would be expectinga short his
tory of our tramp.
We stepped aboard of the cars at o.
clock a. m, on the 10Th inst, in company
with several friends, and in 48 minutes, the
breakman cried out Warsaw" In mo.
ment. in comes Billy Williams, one of the
Directors of the road. Billy is quite So
ciable and. companionable and were he a
Democrat we should conclude he was about
right. In few minutes over two hours
from the time we left Plymouth, our ears
we're saluted with the sound, eft Wayne"
As We were leaving that place. Judge
Hannah. another one Of the Directors of
the road stepped aboard-off the train went
at the rate Of mile in two minutes. AT
day light We crossed over the line between
Indiana and our native State, Ohio, at Dix
on, which is nineteen miles east Of Fl.
Wayne. The general face of the country
from Wayne to Forest a distance Of ninety
miles)is low and wet, and comparatively
new. The Dayton and Mad River road
crosses the p. F. W. & G. road at Forest.
After leaving Forest we passed through
Upper Sandusky, Bucyrus, Crestline,
(where the Bellefontains r. r. intersects,
Mansfield, Wooster. Massilon, Alliance
the Columbus & Cleaveland Road crosses
at this place-Canton, Columbiana, and
many other smaller towns. The larger
portion Of the country from Crcsrline to the
cast line of Ohio, is beautiful, and under a
good state of cultivation; the farmers ap-
pear to be in easy circumstances.
After leaving Columbiana we passed into
Pennsylvania; the greater portion which
we could see was rough and uneven until
we came to the Ohio river, about twenty
eight miles below Allegheny City. (Which,
in fact, is part Of Pittsburgh, from there
the road runs up the margin of the river a
short distance, thence up the Allegheny to
the north part of the city, thence across
the river on bridge that cost the compa-
NJ a quarter of a million of dollars, we ar
rived in Pittsburgh about O'Clock p. m.
pretty well tired out. An omnibus was in
readiness, which conveyed us to the Mo-
nongahela House, which, by the way, is
second to none In the west In an incred-
'blo short space Of lime we were snugly
ensconced in bed, and soon became oblivi-
Gus to everything around us.
In thee..ih,0rning we went to breakfast
about 7'o'clock, bill of fare and a morn
ing paper was placed before us; we then
called for what we wanted, and while it was
being prepared we perused the paper. and
learnt that the democrats had a majority
both in the Senate and lower House, in
Ohio. In due time darkey brought what
we called for, when dropped the paper
and proceeded to business. Breakfast can
be had at any time prior to o'clock r. m.
Dinner at p. m. In our next number
we will give some further particulars ofour
visit to the Iron City.

The escort partook somewhat of a ludricrous iniita- ton of royalty, consisting first of the lads horse with its equippage, saddle, &c., and with a pair oi rea.topped boots strung across the sad dlc. Then faliowed the licarsr, and after it two hundred females, all dressed in deep monrn- ing, sud mounted on horseback in Hawaiian straddlc fashion Each female had a yellow !auhaIas <wreaths) around her heck, with long,

 black, with crsne on their left arms. After pasa;ng through the principal streets the pro ccsson went out to the new tomb, recently built by Nr piikoi, on his farm at Waikiei, where tents had been erected, and after the coffin was deposited in tine tomb, a feast was served up in original Hawaiian style.
