NEGRO SUFFRAGE seems to fare hard
in the house Of its friends. In Ohio
the Republican candidate for Govern
or repudiates it, in Iowa there is a
point blank split among Republicans
on the issue, and at Republican
State Convention held at Madison,
Wisconsin, on the 9TH, report advo-
eating the doctrine, was laid on the
table. In New York, Pennsylvania
and New Jersey the thing is no go.-
Only in New England, the prolific
source of all the isms, whims, and
crazy theories which have well nigh
ruined the nation, is the Republican
party unanimous in support Of this
last pet scheme Of radical abolitionism.

"BoNp-ocRA cY."-The Montpelier,
Vt, Patriot says that there were about
three billions of dollars worth of slaves
in the country, owned by less than
half a million people. This was call
cd the slaveocracy. The capitalists of
the country have made war upon, and
demolished the slaveocracy. 1t cost
three billion to do it. The Southern
slaves are turned into government
bonds, which are held by less than
half million of capitalists. Slave
ocracy is turned into Bondocracy-
And the question comes, shall we ac-
cord tho Bondholder q privilege the
STAKEHOLDER never asked--an exenp-
toe from taxation? This is abolish
ing slavery in horn! 1t sets Sambo
loose, but binds the chains of eternal
servitude upon the white laborer.

Railroad from Toledo to Holly.

We learn from highly responsible
source that the probabilities in favor
Of the immediate construction OF the
proposed line of railway between Hol-
ly and Toledo, ra Monroe, are SO
strong as almost to amount to GER
tainty. This is highly important
link in tho chain of railway commune
cations between Saginaw Valley and
the 'rest of mankind" and must have
the effect to change materially the ma
ture of trade and the routes Of travel
between this section and the metropoli-
tan markets, East and West. BY means
Of this line close connections will be
made with the Michigan Southern,
Toledo & Cincinnati, Toledo & Cleve-
land, Atlantic & Great Western, New
York & Erie, and other railway lines,
leading West South and East and
more intimate relations established be-
tween us and the Central anu South
ern markets, which dispose of so large
a portion of our surplus lumber.
Toledo, only second to Chicago in
the extent of its grain trade, does a
heavy business in lumber, as well with
the Eastern shore Of Lake Huron and
st. Clair River, as with this section,
the transportation, from here, by rail,
in through cars used for that and no
other purpose, forming a sufficiently
prominent item of the business of the
roads over which they pass to warrant
a leading position in the daily station
reports, Notwithstanding the shipments
by lake are yearly ON the Increase
AS favorable point for the purchase
of supplies for this market, it has al
ways possessed many advantages
which must of necessity be augment
ed as the facilities for communication
are improved. 1t is a live city, and
its business men, not slow to see the
advantages of direct railway connec-
uon with the rlcn ana prosperous VAL
ley of the Saginaw, are moving i'll
earnest to effect that consummation,
in which enterprise we wish them good
speed

THE Dubuque Times, after noticing
the woll-known fact that whisky is a
sure cure fer snake bites, says it is a
preventive for hydrophobia. 1t gives
the singular instance Of little girl of
that city, five years Of age, who was
bitten by a mad-dog. The physician
prescribed whisky. She drank pint
before she was in the least intoxicated.
1t is popularity Of the remedy that
the whisky does not effect the healthy
part of the person until the poison is
noutra.ized. 49,

PoLITIcAL DIssoLUTIoN.-The New
York San thinks the opening of tho
political campaign indicates unn istak-
ably that life of the Republican party
was in the prospect and not in the at
tainmen! "a the liberty of slaves. 1t
was tho blessing of liberty in the alb
stract that it held up before the peo-
pie, rather than the plain, unvarnished
article which the negroes now enjoy.
Parties, like coquettes, usually manage
to have more than one string to their
bow, but the Republicans have but
one and that they have lost since the
adjustment of slavery is no longer a
thing Of the future, The radical
class, knowing what a strong card the
negro was while in condition of
slavery, have been foolish enough to
believe that he can still be made avail
able as a political instrument, and
with this view they are making des-
perate effort to get the party upon a
negro suffrage platform, beheving that
to be the next best thing to abolition :
ism. But it will not do. The con-
servative wing of the party are shrewd
enough TO see thatthe negro no longer
available to the Republicans after the
shackles of slavery fell from his limbs,
and he became a full fedged freedman.
The New England Republicans seem
to be almost a unit in favor of negro
suffrage. Those Of New York, judg-
ing from the complexion of the State
Committee, are very nearly tie upon
this question. In Pennsylvania and
Now Jersey they are anti-sufirage; i'll
Ohio they are divided; in Iowa the
party is wrecking itself upon the suff-
rage question, and in a number OF
counties each faction is running its

ally heard from, will show the same
state of decentralization in the party,
although the majority of them will
undoubtedly oppose the suffrage ques-
tion. 1t is evident therefore, that
the republican party is rapidly APP
preaching dissolution.

The Springfield Republican says "the
Democracy must find more lively is
sue than state rights" But its politi-
cal friend, tho Newburyport Herald,
seems to think differently. That pa
per thinks that issue very vital one.
1t says:
"The doctrine Of State Rights is
deemed great heresy when it stands
in the way and will of some men; but
let them look back and ask them
selves what would have become Of us
if the theory that the government at
Washington may impose its policy on
the srveral States had been adopted
twenty or forty years ago. Then
slavery ruled, and it had just as much
right to impose itself upon free States
as the free States have to impose their
ideas on other States. If there had
been no State Rights then we should
all been made slaveholding. Then
his hated doctrine protected u.s."

THE STATE FAn.-The approaching
State Fair affords the people of Le-
nawee county the first opportunity Of
having it in the immediate neighbor-
hood, and we should welcome the
priviledge with a spirit of pride and
ambition for several reasons. Among
them are the following: We rank in
an agricultural point of view equal
with any other county in the State
We have an annual production of
nearly half million bushels of wheat,
with as many bushels of other grains,
over forty thousand tons of hay, half
a million pounds of wool. two and a
half million pounds of pork, one mil
lion pounds of butter, two hundred
thousands pounds of cheese, with l, $50
horses, IL, 900 neat cattle, 1000 ewes,
100000 sheep, and a graet variety of
other stock usually kept on the farm,
with large amount OF capital inves-
ted in Touring mills, saw mills and
various manufacturing establishments.
These should be enough at least to
stimulate us all to bring out something
from all the different branches of bus
mess within our county, and particu-
larly of the focks end herds that are
now fattening upon the fertile and
pleasant frams of ''Old Lenawee." -

ton; show all, from the Bantam chick

Important Decision.

The Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue has decided as to the amount of
stamp duty on n deed Of trust and
mortgage, given by the Atlantic &
Great Western Railroad Company to
John r. Penn, trustee of the city OF
New York, banker, in answer to an
inquiry of 81 900 in internal revenue
stamps was sufficient to cover the
same, the entire amount of mortgage,
$50, 100000 that it would require in
ternal revenue stamps to the amount
Of $50, 900, and that if said stamps
were not affixed thereto, the bonds
of said railroad company would be
invalid. That looks like very hea-
Wy tax to pay the Government OIL
bonds of $50, 900, 900.

and located, as u tailor, at Findloy, in
the adjoining county of Hancock, which
was then quite new and covered over with
dense forest. The want of roads ex.
cluded him from Intercourse, almost en-.
tirely, with the more advanced SETTLE

that the population was so very sparse as
to furnish him an Indifferent patronage
and support. This state Of things, ow.
ing to the difficulty Of opening and i'm

cabins Of rude construction. They were
all in limited circumstances, without O

that gives them enduring vitality and
