Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1857-05-14

The Lafayette Courier of Thursday says
that the -fmeri.Gn, the Democratic sheet of
that place, announces its suspension from
and after that date. The Connersville
Times says that the "Rushville Republican
is the only paper left in that place now"
from which we infer that til. Jarksonian,
the pet and property Of Mr.. Marshall John
l.. Robinson, is also dead. We have not
received any Nashville papers for two
weeks, from some cause or other, and
therefore have no direct advices as to the
facts above stated. If the Ja,ksondn is
dead, it has certainly died of diffusion of
its own venom through it. system. Lack
ing the ability to use all that his prolific
apparatus distilled, it has died of the eff
fccts--smothcrcd, like sink with the vent
choked, in its own dirt. 1t was, while
it lived, and il is now. if it is not dead, the
meancst paper, mean in ability, and mean
CIR in disposition, that we ever saw. Most
of this happy distinction it owed to the
prominent part taken by Mr.. Robinson in
its conduct This collapse of two leading
Democratic papers, for both were among
the most prominent In the ctale, Is iSntH- :
cant. Democracy is not making quite
twenty per cent. on its investment in de-
feated appropriation bills, and rejected
extra Sessions" What with the money
lost in bets and paying for imported votes
to carry this city election, with defeats
and diminished maiorities in most OF the
city elections. and with decaying .newspa-
pers, and all we hope is that its epitath
may not be read in the language Of old
tombstones,
"Affli-tions sore, long time it bore"
The sooner tides tho cleaner the world will
be, and the readers to receive the comet
creditably.- Ind. Jour.
If the Journals supposition, that the
Jcckso,;an died of ''diffusion of its own
venom through its SYSTEM is correct,
there are two or three others Of the same kid
ney in this State that are in danger daily of
dissolution from the same cause.

Frank B,air's Brother on the Stump for
characterization.


Hon. FRANK BLAIR, of ST. Louis, has a
brother, JAMES G.. BLAIR, residing in Lewis
county, Mo-, who, like Frank is in ia
vor of Riding his State of the curse of
slavery. The National Democracy of
Clark county held meeting at the county
seat, Waterloo, few days ago, and JAMES
G. BLAIR was called upon to address them,
which he did.
He declared his opposition the agita-
ton of the slavery question, but at the
same time admitted that he looked forward

stare. y aroula be doftea ont IN Aissouri.-
Mr.. BLAIR said that while he endorsed the
principle of non-intervcntion, he felt that
he hal a right to entertain private opin-
with regard to the subject of slavery
He gave his private opinion on the sub
jcct at considerable length, and in bold,
manly language against the continuance of
slavery in that Stale.
He said-'.Not far distant in the future,
can behold the extinction of negro slave
ry in Missouri, and in the morning of that
day the fresh footprints of the departing
slave will be 5lotted out by the advancing
steps of thousands of white frecmcn, who
will come to people your rich lands, quick
en- your energies, derelope your natural re-
sources, increase the value of your farms,
build up your cities AMI towns, spreal wide
your commerce, extend your already COM
mencel railroads, erect your iron and
manufacturing establishments, and make
yours the brightest, the proud st and most
prosperous star that glittcrs in that nation
al constellation which gives light and life,
and hope to the worlds Let Missouri but
keep TIN. future in view, and she must be-
come the great interior agricultural, COM
mercial and manufacturing State of the
Union.
Yours is the white mans State; AMI So
cially, politically, or any other way, the
negro question cannot control its dcstines
Further south, the slave may be of service
to the people, but In your State he is a
curse, both to those who hold him and ev-
cry man who does not hold him to service
He does not belong to the fixtures ofyoul
State, and it will be the brightest day in
your history when he is emancipatel, or re-
moved from your soil. Missouri possess
es elements of greatness not exccllei (i
equalcl) by any State in the thirty-one
ana is destined to be the finest State il

from among you will date the the perio'
when Missouri will step to the heal of til
sisterhood of the Union?''
1t may not be improper to say that til
ncighbors of AIr. BAR are talking of run

AT the Municipal election in Fort Wayne
ON Tuesday the 4th inst, the Shamocrats
met with signal defeat. This was en-
tirely unlocked for. If Fort Wayne can
be redeemed, where there are SO many Ro-
man Catholics, no other place, certainly,
ought to be despaired of.
