yourself, and see that every one of your

nothing to do with it, and it was for the
public convenience and good John said
that if they desired him as Democrat.
TO take the Office. he would do SO,
and on no other condition. The appoint
ment was accordingly sent on Hough-
tons first act after receiving it, was to get
up club OF twenty subscribers for the

litionists to such an extent that at meet
Ing of the Union League Il committee was
appointed to take steps to procure his ar
rest as a seccssionist; and from that day
to the day of his resignation, lie was re-
garded and denounced by the abolitionists
of Bourbon as u copperhead Of the worst
stamp. No class of people were more sur
prsed to hear the sin Of republicans II
laid to his charge than his abolition neigh
bors. Houghton has been neither an alb
olitionist nor seccssionist. With the
single exception Of having once voted for
Colfax and the Bourbon Ponce, for ncr.
sonai reasons merely, unGvnnocted with
The Pest Office at Bourbon, his record has
been that of a straight-out Democrat.
The efforts of the Republican to bring
Mr.. Houghton ''into disrepute" among
Democrats, and moderate, fair-rainded re-
publicans, will only recoil on the heads OF
the abolition slanderers in this county
they cannot in any event secure llough-
tons defeat, and the election Of his aboli-
ton competitor.

THE County, AsYs.a:sr j..

We understand that the abolitionists
are raising quite howl over the fact
that the board Of Commissioners let the
county farm to Mr. Boyd instead Of one of
the radicals who put in less bid than
that Of Mr.. i. Out Of this stock they
are trying to manufacture capital for the
election next week They seem to forget,
that, not every man who is pccuniarly res
ponsible, is fitted to have the care of the
poor of the county, and much must nee
essarily be left to the discretion Of the
commissioners. They seem to forget the
fact that several persons underbid Mr..
Taplin when he took the farm, yet We
have heard no note Of dissatisfaction On
that account from the radicals. Was it
because Taplin was an out and out radical
one of themselves? Again, Mr.. Tapln
got 500, year and the county furnished
all the hired help both male and female.
The amount paid Taplin for salary and
help amounted to more than what they
agreed to pay Boyd who by his contract
furnishes his own help, and has consider
ably more land to tend than Tapln had
We venture the remark that the principal
bid less than Boyd was made BY an ;bo-
litionist of recent importation, and who SO
far as known here, has shown himself a
hardhearted, close listed, overbearing man.
totally unfit to have charge Of the poor
of the county. If this be true the com
missioners certainly did their duty to the
poor and to the public at large to refuse
his bid at any price: Notwithstanding he
may have been pecuniarily responsible
The experience of the past is sufficient tC

ZIONIST, for inhunnanity aud cruelty, is he

The Reported Attempt To Assas
sin:sfc Gen. Grant.

From the Cincinnati Commercial Sept. 80
We dispatched Il special reporter to
Guiiiord station, on the indianapolis and
Cincinnati railroad, the scene ofthc acci-
dent to the special train upon which Gel
Grant was passenger, and the detail of
the information be was able to acquire
will be found elsewhere. The sum Of it is.
that it IS exceedingly improbable that any
design upon the life Of Gen Grant was
entertained by any person in the state of
Indiana. 1t was not known in the ncig',-
borhood of Gulford station that Gen.
Grant would pass through that night; and
the switch was one that was unattended
and not in gond order. We have much
satisfaction IN thus clearing up this matter,
aud the whole country will rejoice to learn
that instead of there being a deliberate
| effort to murder the lieutenant general. he
was merely subjected to one Of the risks

CINCINNATI u, Sept. 70.
Intense excitement existed in Newport,
Ky, to-day, by the arrest of Rev. DR..
Huston by three negro soldiers, who, un-
der guard, conducted him to Louisville
The charge against him is that he is a nos
torlOus rebel preacher. The arrest was
made by order of Gen. Palmer. On Fri
day, Judge Doniphan granted an injunc-
ton against certain parties, alleging that
they prevented Dr. Huston from ofiica-
ting in the Taylor Street NJ. +. church
South. This injunction opened the church,
and this morning the house was occupied
by DR.. Houston for quarterly mcetIng.-
The leaguers, however, immediately went
to work and caused the doctors military
arrest as above stated The president has
been tclegraphed on the subjects and in
dorsed by Gov. Bramlette. and the release
Of DR.. Houston is confidently expected.
The church difficulty waxcd warmer and
exciting events are yet expected.
CINCINNATI, O., Oct. ).
There was much excl tement in Newport
yesterday over the arrest of Rev. l.. ID.
Huston. This morning party Of promi-
nent gentlemen called upon Liet. Gen.
Grant at the Burnet house and laid be-
fore the general all the facts of the church
difficulty which eliminated in the arrest
of DIR. Huston Gen Grant Immediately
tclegraphcd Gen Palmer, at Louisville,
directing the unconditional release of the
distinguished divine. Subsequent to this
sction by Gen. Grant, Rev George Malcy,
an OLD acquaintance of the general and
his famiiy, called upon Gen. Grant, and,
after a brief interview of n social char
acter, Father Maloy, inquired:
General, what can you do for DR.. Hus-
TONI"
Gen. Grant-'I have already ordered
his unconditional release. 1t is time that
military arrests and military commissions
were at an end. We are now a. peace.
and if a citizen commits any political of
fence he should be taken before tho civil
courts and there tried for his crime"

The report that John Houghton voted
the republican ticket to procure the APP
polntment Of Post Master at Bourbon Is
too silly to refer to; yet as some of our
readers may not know all the circumstan-
ces relative TO the matter, We viii state the
facts as we kaow them and as We can prove
them unqualfiedly:
After Linc0ln's election the democratic
Post Master as bourbon was ousted and an
abolitionist appointed, who look the Office
and in few weeks proved so VIGOROUSLY
incompetent that it became necessary Tor a
better man to take the Office. The prin-
cipal abOlItionists looked about them. and
could find no member of their party quail
fed to attend to the business; whereupon,
"a some one must attend to it, Dir. Parks
was authorized 20 secure the office for some
good man, regardless of politics He call
cd on John Houghton and asked him if he
would take the Office. John replied that
he did not want the Office; that he was a
Democrat and always expected to be one

States let them vote for Kendall 81 CO.
The Plymouth weekly Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1860-1869, 1865-10-05


The question TO be settled at the polls
on Tuesday next is whether the voters oi
the County desire to endorse the princi>
pies of the Democratic nominees or the
principles OF the abolition nominees. We
presume it Will hardly be contendcd by
any honest, fair man, that the abolition
candidates are better qualified, or are per-
sonally better men than the Democratic
candidates. Then the question to settle
in determining how to vote is as to which
set of principles is preferable. The
Democratic candidates oppose negro-suf-
rage and negro equality. They oppose
cxcmpting the rich man from taxation at
the expense Of the poor man. They OPP
pose the doctrine that one State may
pass laws to govern another State. We
oppose the violation Of the great American
principle expressed in the Monroe doc
trine; and we oppose, in time of peace at
least, making the civil authorities and
civil law subordinate to the military au-
thoritics aud military llw.
The abolition candidates believe in ne
ero-equality and negro suffrage, as is evil
dcnccl b. the general action of all the
State conventions, this year. OF their party,
and of the express ayowal of this doctrine
by the leading journals Of their party, to
which they give their support They

evidenced by their exempting rich bond.
holders from all tax, ari paying to them
an unlawful rate of interest; and by tax
ing the nscessaries Of life heavily and
almost eXempting the luxurics Of life
They favor the doctrine that one State
may pass laws to govern another State;
as is evidenced by the effort Of their party
TO say who may and who may not become
voters in certain Of the States They OPP
pose the Monroe doctrine, by supporting
the administration which permits its VIC
latioa; and they favor making the civil law
subordigate to the military BY every action
oftLe party they support.
Now these are Ire issues. and issues
which the people will soon be called upon
to settle definitely. Voters of Marshall
County, reflect, and then say how you
stand ON these questions. 1t is question
of principle, and we only ask a candid,
sober thought on the question.
