XoO Ooo4OO As@es 49,
That unfortunate Republican organ
the Dubuque Times, has 'got it, foot
in it" again.
1t charges the Democratic Party
With . willingness to do almost any
thing ITO keep the jib boom Of the
Union erect aud the stars and stripes
waving"
Barring the bad metaphor. suggest,
ing the possibility Of the jib boom Of a
ship being erect, We are willing to plead
guilty to the charge Of being possessed
of q very strong love for the Union,
and are ready to- answer for our crime
at the bar Of our country.
1.-THE Union, first, last, always, is
our motto.
Under that banner the Democratic
party has ever fought.
1t has been advanced to the forefront
of the contest as an end, and an iuspir-
alton.
BY the pen of Washington, by the
logic of Jefferson-by the heroism OF
Jackson and the energy Of Benton, on
the Tribune of Cass, on the death bed
ef Marcy-by the eloquence Of Clay
and the ashes of Webster, it has been
forever canonizcd and sanctified. We
have sinned, if it be a crime to love
our country.
The Times having accomplished its
mission in Dubuque had better remove
with its press, type, rules chases and
other etcetara's- including the Editor
to Davenport.
1t has succeeded most effectually in
ruining its party in Dubuque and max
ing it the Democratic Banner county
of the State, and we think it still pos
sesscs the power to work a great good
for us in Davenport.
BY boldly advocating the absurdities
Of Rcpublicanism, it has brought its
party in Dubuque to the very verge OF
dissolution.
Our friends of the Gazette, although
very worthy individuals personally,
have wrapped themselves up so effect
ually, in the armor Of dullness, that we
dislike to disturb them. They have
done no harm to the democratic party;
and their platitudes have worked but
little damage to their own party but
if we could only persuade the Times
to locate here, we should be able with
in a very short time, to show ire
mendous democratic majority in Scott
county.

The ssMad Stone"

Mr.. SETH B. STANTON, of Cincinnati, Appa.
the 18th of March last, and was soon after
attacked by the worst symptoms of hydro
phobia. In anticipation OF the horrible dis
ease, he had gone to Macoupin Co., iii , near
Brighton, where one Samuel Treble owned
what is vulgarly known as mad stone,
the very existence of which is deemed as
much of fiction by many people, rs its re-
puted virtues are usually attributed to the
grossest superstition. He applied the stone
and was cured and now writes a story OF
his case to the Mt Pleasant Journal (Henry
Co. } which very respectable paper vouches
for Mr. Stantons reliability in every partic
ular and assures US his statement is entitled
to credence.
We quote q portion. beginning with his
condition before reaching Mr.. Treble's:
For three days before we got there felt
the terrible disease coming on had high
fever; my eyes were red and swollen, with
rumbing sounds in my head found it diff.
ficult to swallow any liquid; my left leg
turned as spotted as leopard, to my body !,
of dark green color, with twitching of the
nerves; had some paroxysms, with hard
cramping; drank no water for eight days.
The stone was promptly applied to the
wounds. 1t stuck fast as leech until it
was gorged with the poison, when it fell off
voluntarily. II was then cleaned with 81 eet
milk ard salt and water, and was applied
again. and so on for seven times, drawing
hard each time, when it refused to take hold
any more. The bad symptoms then all left
me, and the cure was complete, and l re-
turned to my family and friends with a
heart overlooking with thanksgiving and
praise to God for his goodness and mercy
in thus snatching me from the very jaws Of
death"

account of another murder in that

Mrs. Rose Kelly, wife Of John Kelly,
died IN the City Hospital, Brooklyn,
on Saturday morning, from the effects
Of stabs received Friday night at the
hands of her husband. Kelly was sent
to the penitentiary a few days ago as
an habitual drunkard, and was dischar-
ged on Friday morning. He immedi-
ately sought his wife, who was at her
sisters in Navy, near Prospect. street,
and, after a few words, stabbed her in
the abdomen and other places. He
was promptly arrested, and the.injured
woman was taken to the Hospital,
where she died as above stated. Kelly
says he intended to kill her for incon-
stancy, and alleges that she had child
only three weeks ago Of which he was
not the father.

tB The king OF Prussia has become stark
mad. He occasionally believes that he is a
private soldier, who has just received his
commission as ensign, but has since lost the
parchment, and therefore he anxiously seeks
it in all the hidden corners of the palace,
and hooks Of the garden. Prince Frederick.

portunity to try his hand at governing.

Republic an Inconsistency Again

On a previous occasion, We made
some remarks touching upon the in
consistency exhibited by the Republic
an Party, in abandoning the position
which they took in 1856, in opposition
to the principle Of Popular Sovereignty
We have now another charge of incon-
sistency, to add to their long account
of self contradictions.
We refer to the action Of the Repub-
licans in the House of Representatives,
in relation to the Deficiency Bill. A
few days since we remarked upon the
absurdity Of their action in voting to
starve the army of Col. Johnston-and
now we purpose to show that their
conduct is irreconcilable, with the prin-
ciples which they advocated at the time
of the last presidential election.
The platform adopted by the Repub-
lican convention, which met at Phila-
delphia on the 18th of June, 1856, con-
tanned resolution against the institu-
ton Of Polygamy, couched in the
strongest terms.
1t was characterized as a relic of
barbarism, and the members of the
convention were loud in their promises
that if the Republican Party came into
power, Brigham Young with his horde
Of outlaws, together with the institu-
ton ofpolygamy, should be wiped from
the face of the land.
1t was, therefore, to be expected,
when a proposition was made by q
Democratic Administration to prose-
cute the Mormon war, with vigor-a
proposition so entirely co,nciding with
the views expressed in their platform
that they would seize upon the oppor-
tunity with avidity, and give their en-
tire support to carry it through.
But no. The measure was demo-
cratic measure-a measure of a Demo-
cratic Administrations measure sup
ported by the democrats in the House
therefore, no matter how great con-
tradiction was involved-no matter
how totally unreconcilable with their
previous course and principles, they
voted, to a man, against the deficiency
bill.
Although, but two years since they
were loudly advocating the most ex-
treme measures against the Mormons,
they voted to tie the hands of the
President and cripple his efforts in the
prosecution of the Utah War.
As usual they attempted to saddle
their course upon the unfortunate ne
gro and to cover up the abandon
ment of their principles with the cry
of slavery but the trick was too trans
parent-lt had been played too often,
to be successful. Their sole and only
reason for the course which they took
was, that it was an administration
measure.
Whether right or wrong-just or I'M
just they were totally indiffereut-if
they could only vote against, and de-
feat an administration measure thew
we're satisfied.
Verify the Republican organ in
the city Of Burlington was right when
it stated that Republication IN poll.
tica is secession rather than . pro-
creation; nsgotion rather than On
affirmation Of principles"
