answer. We shall cont1ne ourselves to political
matters, without impInging upon the fight of
private actioti or invading the prvacies of the
home circle. We claim we have the fight to
comment oh the political status of any candi
date presenting himself for the suffrages of the
people. Having just passed through one Of the
mightiest struggles ever maintained for the life
American nation to inquire strictly into the
action of those of her sons who renamed at
hotne taking ITO active part in the field and
especially is this the case in regard to those pre-
senting themselves for office-how else will she
ever eradicate the foul spirit of Secession, and
secure the future tranquility and prosperity of
her loyal children?
With respect to candidates presenting thctr-
selves for local offices; the discharge of whose
duties does not affect the politics of the county
or State, we contend that the people of the
county, before bestowihg their suffrage have
an undisputed fight to know whether the ap-
plicaht's support Of his country, during the
contest, was hearty and efficient, or otherwise.
Entertaining these views, we present the fol-
lowing queries to Mr.. DUNN for answer:
l. Did he, DUNN, not say" Damn the sol
diers' votef"
2. Did not the Union oppose Che efforts of the
Government to suppress the rebellion?
8. Did not Henry A. Hoyt, candidate for Aud
itor, take the Office he no~ holds, knowing
that Martin had beat him at least one hun
dred and forty votes-and whether it was
a very gentleinanly act TO take that to
which he was not entitled.
4. Did not Henry A. Hoyt belong to the "Sons
of Liberty" and was he not co operating
Is. with that society in all its opposition to the
Government?
5. Did not H. A. Hoyt say that the U. S. Gov
ernment was the AeGREssbR, by provoking
South Carolina to fire upon the Star of the
West?
6. Did not H. A. Hoyt declare that he had not
and would not encourage volunteering, and
that he regarded the war wrong on our
partG

THE PorAToE, BUG.-The potatoe bug
which has been so destructive of late to many
fields in the west, has at last been overtaken
by cannibal insect. 1t Is well known fact
that all insects which live upon vegetation
have their natural carniverous insect enc
mics. If 1t were not so, vegetation would
disappear from the earth. and the air become
thick with the buzzing of noxious vermin.-
The Hessian Fly, which in this country. has
been so destructive to wheat crops for half
century, is not, in its native country regard
ed with any degree of alarm, as there is
there an insect which feeds upon and keeps
1t within bounds, but being imported into
this country with the straw or grain from
Germany it has increased to such an ex
tent as to destroy millions of dollars annu-
ally. We have no doubt it will continue its
ravages till the caunnibal insect shall have
been set on it's track. Of the potatoe bug the
Dubuque Times says:
We are glad to learn that insect has made its
appearance that is making war the potatoe bug
in Its grub state. The insect provided with an
messing probocis, which it thrusts, after the
of swordsmen, into the body of the vile
worm, sucks out its life's blood and passes on to
another victim. Each insect destroys from six to
ten grubs. Verify, as Judge King says, 'te,ery
thing has it's enemies - and rejoice that the po-
tatoe bugs has come on the tapis

An amusing story is told of lady who tried to
smuggle a clock across the Canada border She
gave the bookseller particular directions to fix
the alarm apparatus so it would not strike, but
the Cannuck being somewhat of wag, set the
alarm so it would strike at the moment he knew
the lady would arrive at the Custom House -
The lady fastened the timepiece securely TO her
hoops, and started ON her homeward journey
Arriving at the Custom House, the officer found
nothing contraband among her effects, and was
passing to the next traveller, when loud wr-r-r!
was heard under the lady's skirts. The strange
noise was kept up for full space of minute :;
but to the lady it seemed an hour, and she be-
came tremulous and excited. The custom house
officer, not daring to lay hands on q woman,
'save in the way of kindness" obtained an iron
rcd, with which he felt around the crinolne for
the concealed clock. and finally succeeded in
bringing il down.

A Washington correspondent, speaking Of
the outrageous act of Stanton in closing Ford's
theatre says:
Can any man deny that he enjoys his per-
sonal liberty, and the use of his property. at
the sole will and pleasure of the secretary of
war? Here is Ford's theatre, closed by or
der of the war department., and Mr.. Ford in
formed by the secretary of war that he will
not be permitted to open his theatre at all, or
ever again to use it for dramatic purposes
Mr.. Ford looks in ell directions for redress,
but he can find none. He, applies to the
courts. They are powerless. He applies to
his counsel, learned in the Law. The man of
law tells him what his rights as citizen are.
and tells him to advertise his theatre and
open it. "Good heavens, sir, says Mr. Ford,
..lhas is just what + did last Monday night
j am ready to do il now. But you know il
would be useless. The secretary Of war has
told me. almost in so many words, that he
will send military force to close the theatre

my rights. Will they do it Pr % sa' = 10

Our MISTAKES ABOUT EACH OTHER-Not one
man In ten thousand sees those with whom he
associates as they really are. If the prayer of
Burns were granted, and We could all see orr
selves as others see us, our self estimates would
in all probability be much more erroneous than
they now are. The truth Is that we regard each
other through Avariety of lenses, no one of
which is correct. Passion and prejudice. love
and hate, benevolence and envy, spectacle our
eyes, and utterly prevent US from observing ac-
curatey. Many whom we deem the porcelain
OF human clay are mere dirt, and a still greater
number of those we put down in our "black
books" are no further eff from Heaven, and per-
chance little nearer than the censors who con-

Improve the Navigation of Western Rivers.


Improve the Navigation of Western Rivers
One of the most serious drawbacks to the
prosperity of the western states is expensive
carriage to their ultimate market on their
exports. Customers buy those articles which
are laid down to them at the lowest prices
Consequently the expense of transferring
from the producer to the consumer falls
wholly on the producer. The effect Of cheap
ening carriage is to raise prices at the point
of production.
Thus far the general government has
mainly fostered those enterprises which even
tually benefit the eastern states. Railroads
have been almost wholly built from the pro-
ceeds of land grants, the roads being mainly
In the hands of eastern capitalists and bond
holders. Their charge for carriage to the

cheaper outlet for that portion Of our surplus

however, remain pretty much in their natural
