THE BARBARIsM or SLAVERY. It
would seem by the following para
graph, cut from the St. Louis Express,
that the Reign Of Terror is no longer
in France, but IN our own land. The
Express says:
sSome time since very respectable
and well known citizen of st. Louis,
named Henry A. Marsh, established a
news depot at some point in Texas.
Subsequently,, he established other de-
pots in Camden, Ark, and Memphis,
Tenn. A few weeks since he received
an order at his Camden depot tor fifty
copies of the N. Y. Tribune. As a
matter Of business Marsh undertook to
fill the order, and the package arrived
in due course OF time, while he was alb
sent at Memphis. Ithaving been nois-
ca annccmt Camden that the Tribune
was about being circulated through
the medium-indirectiy, apwever-of
Mr.. Marsh, committee OF three men
were appointed to 60 after Mr.. Marsh
and bring him back. Accordingly,
they proceeded on their mission, and
one night captured their unsuspecting
victim in Memphis, and conveyed him
on board Il steamer and locked him in
y state-room. The captain ofthe boat,
on learning their intention, refused to
convey the party, and they were oblig-
ed to convey their captive across the
river in yawl. Arriving in Camden,
Mr.. Marsh was arraigned on the charge
Of circulating seditious and incendiary
documents, was convicted and SEN
FENCED TO BE HUNG. Time was, how
ever, given him to send for his wife,
and permission granted him to procure
from citizens Of st. Louis certificate
Of former good character, rcsectability
and loyalty. The wife Of Mr.. Marsh
arrived III this city enroute for camden,
and is stopping At Barnum,s Hotel, a.
waiting the completion Of 4 petition al
ready signed by many well known cit
liens Of all political parties, for the re-
lief OF the unfortunate man, whose only
crime is embraced in the faithful dis
charge of his business relations. Mrs.
Marsh will leave for Camden with the
petition, numerously signed, with the
heartfelt prayer Of the citizens of st.
Louis forthe safety of her husband from
the hands Of fanat.cal ire-eating cap

influential Speakers.

Under this head we must place the
Democratic Stump Speakers Of this
county. We are forced to this conclu-
sion from learning the numbers that
usually attend their stated meetings.
But it happens, however, their influ-
ence is all exertcd toward making peo-
pie stay at home, to read Republican
documents and other good books. A
salutary influence certainly. Thank
you gentlemen, for the good that does
come from your evil intentions.
One week ago last evening one of
the 8 Immortal two Democratic speak
ers OF this county went forth to
preach to the lost wolves of the house
of Douglas, at the Gallagher School
House in Howard township, when be-
hold after considerable drumming and
bowling he could gather but eight
within the fold; and two Of these be-
ing Republicans refused to partake of
the political bread Of dealt, there bro
ken so freely. Obstinate fellows! you
deserve to be promoted to office by the
Republican party.
A short time ago ono Of these gen.
tlemcn, in company with one whom
they now lament as departed, held
forth ut the McGee School House i'm
Indiantown township, where we are in
formed they had the significant eight
again; two of whom were minors and
one Republican, Quite number as
sembled there, but upon learning who
was to address the meeting, immedi-
ately returned home. Poor fellows |!
Poor fallows!! We will excuse them
for indulging slightly in the spirits Of
rye, for we presume by this time, they
were possessed Of no other At other
places they have had the same number;
the favorite eight.
The fact is. this peculiar s, in being
the most crooked of all the digits, is
svmbolical Of the course pursued by
the party in this campaign, while the
cipher will fully express the result Of
their labors.

Crystal, Oct. l6, 1860.

~ oSHAS WV ASt ASOos
Mr.. EDIroR:-S Some two weeks since,
the citizens Of our neighborhood, with
out regard to politics, had u meeting
for the purpose OF appointing COM
mittee to invite Messrs. q. Il. Strnble
and A. Stoddard, to address the citi-
zens OF Crystal township, at Mckane' :
School House, Oh the political issues of
the day; which committee was APP
pointed, and the invitation given TO the
said gentlemen. The gentlemen both
1t the time appeared pleased and per-
tectly willing to meet each other and
discuss the political issues Of the day,
and readily consented to address the
citizens OF Crystal township at any
time and place which would be conse-
nient to both. The time rs agreed up
on by Mcssrs. Struble and Stoddard,
was last Thursday evening, and all ex-
pected as 4 matter Of course that these
gentlemen would certainly both be
present at the time agreed upon. But
when the time had arrived for organic
ing the meeting our Democratic friend
Mr.. Stoddard was not to be seen, De-
mocracy had again $ Sk,uked out
MIR. Strublc was on hand il. due time
and addressed the meeting i'll telling
speech OF about one hour and halt, in
which the Democracy were pretty
roughly handled.
before Mr.. Struble commenced speak
ing, he stated that MIR. Stoddard had
requested that he shonld state to the
meeting that owing to the illness Of his
family, it was impossible for him to at
tend and Mr.. Struble, out Of justice to
Mr.. Stoddard, SO stated to the meeting,
which, am afraid was more than
Democratic speakers would do for Mr..
Struble in like circumstances.
But this is not the first time Democ-
racy has lodged since the campaign
commenced. l see by your paper that
the Republicans have tried by every
honorable means to get the Democra-
CIV into the field, but as yet have not
succeeded.
Why is it that they are afraid to
meet our Republican speakers before
the people? Why don't they come up
like men and defend their principles,
if any they have, and not skulk away
like " kill sheep dogs, and hold secret
meetings throughout the county: The
people Of Crystal have come to the
conclusion that they are afraid, that
they have no principles but what they
are ashamed Of, and dare not meet the
Republicans in open fair discussion.
We would be pleased to learn that
the Republicans had ut last succeeded
in pursuading the Democracy of lama
county to meet them upon the stump.
But fear we will not hear such good
news during this campaign; and we
have good reason for so thinking, from
the unqualified assurances that Mr..
Stoddard gave us that he would be
present on last Thursday and discuss
with Mr.. Struble, and then making an
entire failure. CRYSTAL \ =.

The present prospects of the Cedar
Rapids, and Missouri River Rail Road
being located upon the Southern SUR
vey are not as tlattering or probable as
they have been. The Engineer, we
understand, reports the Northern route
he most feasible, rs well as the short
'st. 1t also more equally divides the
territory between the NJ. NJ. Road on
the South and Dubuque and Sioux City
on the North. These are strong in
ducements to the company to build the
road upon that line. Yet notwi,h-
standing these, they are inclined to
build the road upon the Southern sur
vey, provided the people along this line
will raise the required amount-sl. 900
per mile. Up to this time there has
been but little more than one half of it
raised, and we are told this is the last
week in which to manifest a proper
spirit to raise the remainder. Mr..
John Ware, the Treasurer of the COM
pany has again come among us to
make the last effort to raise the neces-
sary amount. Now the question is.
shall we have the road where it will
benefit our town and county, or shall
we allow It to 80 where it will prove
the final destruction Of our TOWN.
This is question which should and
mist claim our immediate attention.
Why will not our people, our farmers,
who are to be so much benefited, come
forward at once and settle it by SUBJ
scribing, each according to his ability,
from one to twenty or more shares p
We say to them the time is at hand
for action, immediate, prompt and en-
ergetic action. The time for propos-
ing, suggesting and talking he's passed.
and we now want responsible men to
come forward and give their names as
All assurance for something tangible.
This is the manner and no,c is the time
in which it must be be done. or we
shall he obliged to abide the disaster
Gus consequences.
The Executive Committee Of the
Board of Directors have authorized the
Chief Engineer to proceed immediate
lv to procure the right of way on the
Northern line, so as to facilitate the
work there in case the people on the
Southern line fail to make up the re-
quired amount. The President Of The
Company has also become much dis
couraged with our leihargy, and now
favors the northern line. Thus it will
be seen we are on our Last legs" and
if we do not step Immediately in the
right direction. we will be FRUSTRATED.
Come forward then we say every man
who can subscribe share and do it Mt
once. Do not wait for the committee,
but hunt them up and put down your
names, if it is not more than for sin
Gle share. Your prospects for each
share is the yearly returns upon the
same, and forty-three acres of land or
its equivalent value. You can also
pay as much OF your subscription as
YOU choose in materials for and labor
upon the road. Come forward then
and do your duty.
