Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1858-10-14

On Tuesday last. when we offered on
ballot to the Inspector, NJ. A. 0. Packard
who was one ofthe Clerks of the Board
turned to Csprou, another Clerk, and sheer
lngly remarked to him that he hated to writ,
that name. We observed that we should
make him write it with sorrow if he did
not mind. He replied that he would write
1t to so to the Penitontiary.
This is a specimen, citizens of Marshall
OF ruffian office holder OF course he is
nothing but puppy and dastardly cow
ard or he would have discharged his Off
cial duty like man and gentleman
But he is neither one nor the other
All he has against us is that we demon
strated, while he was editor of the M C..
Democrat. that he was utterly disqualified
for the position. which the proprietors of
the Office themselves saw, and were for
ced.--to prevent their subscription from
dwindlins down to nothing.-to discharge
him. Attributing his disgrace to us he
naturally enough feels an implacablo ha-
tired toward us, and embraced the occasion,
when he supposed we could MT reach him
to give his worthless carcase kicking, to
insultas. He is as poorly qualified for a
lawyer as he is for an editor.
AT first we thought we would kick the
miscrcant upon sight. but upS> neacction
we have concluded not to honor him SO
highly. but say to him in the language of
Uncle Toby to the fly, Go. poor insect,
there is sufficient room in the world for us

Infamous!

One Of the most infamous anil menda.
cious hand bills we ever read, was issued
from the Office of the Marshall County
Democrat since the duplication of that pa
per on Thursday last, and clandestinely
circulated on the eve Of the election in the
out townships. The first intimation we
had of the villainous thing was on We'd
neselay morning last, when one of them
was placed in our hands by friend from
Union township. 1t was gotten up by
Monkey Reeve. We shall publish it en-
tire next week. TO let our readers see to
what low depths of infamy the leaders of
that party can descend in order to succeed.
But their Vaccinations failed this time
The people have believed their lies, to their
sorrow, already too often.

The success Of the Atlantic telegraph was received
with great satisfaction in London, and yet we find
that the English papers treat it very much as mat
ter of everyday occurrence. The most noticeable
sensation exhibited on Change, where the stock
Of the company evinced very considerable upward
tendency. We copy, in another column, from the
London Morning Star it's announcement OF the recep-
ton Of the news.
1t il remarkable coincidence that on the day the
Agsmemnon landed one end Of the cable at valentia
and the niagara the other at Trinity Bay the Queen
of Great Britain landed at Cherbonrg on friendly
visit to her imperial neighbor. Both were peace
movements calculated to preserve and maintain that
goodwill among nations SO essential to the happi-
ness of the world. While the visit of Queen Victo-
ria has its significance compelled to exclam,
with our London contemporary, that the landing of
tho cable was an event which throws the Cher
bourg meeting entirely into the shade"
