WARSA W BAND.

In another column will be found a COM
d unication from the Committee who EN-
ployed the Warsaw Band to play for our
County Convention. We had written an
article in relation to the matter when the
communication was handed in. As part
of the article from the Lndianiaa brings us
into the "mix," we notice it.
One of the members of the Band spoke
about one ofthc Committee being dis
satisfied because Band gave the editor of
the Republican serenade, and said some
thing about not getting their pay. We
remarked that if their days work was done
they had a perfect right to serenaae who
they pleased, and as for getting their pay,
we told them that we the Plymouth folks J
had raised BY collection, about eighteen
dollars which was to go toward paying
their expense. We did not intimate that
we "paid most of the bill out of our own
pocket"
The members of the Band expressed
themselves well pleased with the days
proceedings, and the fact that they receiv-
ed their pay without any trouble. was suf
iciens, as we supposed, to satisfy them,
without bringing the matter into print. to
be misrepresentsd BY Republican editors,

up and dish out mess of falsehoods and
Misrepresentation for their readers to d.
gsst.
The Lndianan says that the Band "be-
ing all Republicans concluded to give
friend Nattingly, the Editor Of the Rspub-
lican little serenade." We supposed
that the serenade they gave US was of their
own free will and accord; but the Band
being all Republican," we may consid-
err that our thanks for the serenade are due
TO the Committee who employed them in.
stead of compliment from the Band.
We have heard of mean men--men SO
mean, according to the Vernonter. ''that
you could take the little end of nothing,
white it down to point, punch out the
pith of horse hair. and put in ten thous-
and such souls and they'd rattle" but the
littlensss exhibited by the editor of the Ia
d;anian in this Band matter is still smaller
in our estimation.

wGov. CoRwIN seams to be bent on
mischief, or at least to annoy seriously the
"rugged issue" branch of his suppartes
In his speech accepting the nominate on,
he contridic,s the assertions Of slaveryren-
roachment upon the North, which is con-
stantly made in the Black Republican Jour
nails.
He said:
If the North only exercised the conf
dence which belonged to power and mag
namity which blonged to conquest, here
would be ne danger to the country. For,
Notwithstanding all that we had heard Of
the enroacnments upon the North, freedom
had en- croached upon slavery. After that
barrier between freedom and slavery had
been broken down, freedom had rushed in
and taken possession ola portion Of the
Louisiana Purchase. So it would always be
with freedom and slavery.

For the Marshall County Democrat.


Messrs. EDrroRs.--In a late number Of
the Warsaw Indsanian, we find an article,
which reads as follows;
"Our Band went over to Plymouth to
play for the Democratic County
Convention, one day last week, and
after the performance was over, they be-
ing all Republicans. concluded to give
friend Matiingly, the Editor of the Re
publican, little serenade, after which the
Committee refused to pay them for playing
on that day, and would not have Gone so
had it not been fer Mr. Mcdonald. Editor
of the Democrat, who paid most of the
bill out of his own pocket. We would not
have mentioned the matter at all, but as
cur Band always old themselves in read
mess to play for any party that may choose
to employ them, they also reserve the
right of playing just where they see fit,
after their days performance is over. We
consider the attempt of the Democratic
Committee to swindle the Band out OF
what they were justly entitled to, as deci-
dedly small, and the pretext for doing SO,
still smaller"
This article was copied in the Marshall
County Republican. with the editorial re-
marks. as follows:
1--WE did not suppose that even Demo
cratic meanness could descend to SO low a
depth as the above reveals"
Nor did it. The article thus copied
and commented upon is false. is false in
every particular. save one. The Demo
cratic County Convention did employ the
the Band to play for them. and price a
agreed upon pad in txH scithoat any hesi-
fation, being the liberal sum OF s25 and
about SIS Band expense.
The facts in the case are, first, the Band
was promised the liberal sum mentioned,
with the understanding and expectation that
their services would be had for the day
and at least part of the evening But,
after tea, when the arrangements OF the
day rendered the services of the Band nec-
essary, the Committee could not ind them.
After while, hearing them play, they

The Congressional Convention, in the
lJth District, which asse mbled at Kendall
sile the other day, proceeded to read John
w. Dawson, editor of the Fort Wayne
Times. out of the great Republican party.
IN tho following preamble and resolution:
WHEREAS, John w. Dawson, Eiitor of the
"Fort Wayne Times has by the political doc
trne he advocates, and by his own declaration con-
WINGED that he is not enieayorng TO promote the
principles success Of the Republican party, and
hat he is not indeed, member thereof, and
ghsceas he was, while pretending to act with said
i'Arty, unfortunately appointed a member OF the
Republican State Central Committee, and still per
sists IN holding that position. Therefore
ResOiced, That We recommend that he be no
longer consulted one OF said Commi ttee, and
that his paper, the Fort Wayne Tunes be spurned
by the Republicans of this Con erosion al district,
so far as ii may attempt IN counsel o.reaect the
settlements of the Republican party at large, or of
this district, or auy part thereof.
The Editor of the Northern Indianian
goes into connip:ions over the above reso-
luton. on our account, because we quoted
en article froni Johns paper week or two
ago. rejecting on the Republican party for
putting men up for Office who they could
no: keep In the harness any other way,
while men who have always belonged to
to that party-used their best energies to
promote the Republican cause-were laid
on the shelf. The Lndianian refers us to
the reolution to show that the quotation we
made does not reflect the sentiments of the
Republican party. We don't suppose that
il does. Dawson is too honest politician
to reflect the sentiments of the Republican
party. A man to keep up with the Re-
publican party, must turn summerset
every change Of the moon, and we sup
pose John got tired Hopping about, and
concluded to anchor.
Al to the question of stink under the
arm,' We do not know of two men who
could discuss that question better than
yourself and Msttingly of the Republican.
