The speech of Col. T. W. Higgins, OF
the % Ohio Volunteer Infantry, delivered
at jackson, Ohio, September 18th. at q
reunion soldiers meeting. contains 4 mas
sage so pithy that it forces its way into
our columns. The Colonel says on the
Communication tax
The Democratic party of the State of
Ohio opposes the four dollar militia com
mutation tax, and declares it is oppress-
i've and ought to be repealed. Now. if
the Democracy of the State of Ohio had
been in the army, they would be EXEMPT
from this tax; but as they all staid at
home, and as they are almost the only
ones who have the tax to pay, in conse-
quence of staying at home, they think it
oppressive. Poor souls ! They are to be
gltIed tor their many and sore Affections.
They can avoid paying this oppressive
tax, however, by joining the Ohio Nation
al Guard, and drilling a few days in the
year; and why don't they do it ? They
might practice target-shooting as a recre-
alton. if nothing else, for they must have
a deal of ammunition on hand, as they
have expended very little during the last
four years. They have burned scarcely
any powder in battle, and, save what was
used In shooting returned soldiers and
Provost Marshals, and what was expen-
ded In rejoicing over ValIandigham's re-
turn to Ohio, they must have their entire
stock of ordnance yet on hand. Let them.
by all means, join some military %organi-
cation, and save the oppressive tax of
four dollars, of which they complain so
much

RECORD OF TRE DEMOCRACY UPON THE NEGRO

-
We advise Union men whenever charged
by Democrats with belonging to a Negro
suffrage party, to tell them you're anoth
er, and prove it by the following state.
ments:
I. The Democratic party gave the ne
groes the right to vote in New York, re-
quiring only that each black man shall be
worth $3.50. This gives the franchise to
about 5000 blacks. Martin Van Buren,,
a DEMOCRATIC President of the United
States, was Chairman of the Convention
which conferred the privilege.
2. The Democratic party made the ne
gro a voter In Maine, with the same quail
fcations as white men.
B. The Democratic party made the
negro a voter in Massachusetts. giving
him the same political rights with white
men.
The Democratic party made the ne
gro a voter in New Hampshire. 81
8. "A Democratic Supreme Court. of
which Reuben Wood was Chief Justice.
and who was afterwards elected Govern
or ofOhio by the Democrrtie party, made
mulattoes voters in Ohio.
Whenever Union men are charged with
inviting the immigration of the blacks.
let them respond by showing that the
democratic party, repealed the laws of
ONO requiring the negroes should give
bond and security before settling in the
State.
Whenever Union men are charged with
being In favor of -miseegenation, strike
back with the following facts
1. That Richard NJ. johnson. a can
dIdate on the democratic ticket for Vice
President, married a woman of pure At
blood, and was the father of mulat-
to children who were educated in North
ern seminaries. And that, had Mr..
J Johnson been elected and had the Pres
dent died, a negIess, through the instru-
mentality of the Democratic party, would
have been mistress of the White House.
2 That the Democratic shareholders
IT n South, have for generations prac-
iced m%iscegenation, and that the mulat-
:oes of the Southa are the offspring of dem
,cratic parents. That while northern
Union men have not even contemplated
niseegenation, Southern democrats have
'ractlced it, frequently with their blood
Citations, and have added the horror Of
their W offspring.

THE CINCINNATI Hoe TRADE.-The
Cincinnati Price Current, of "Wednesday,
says The demand for hogs, for Novem-
Der, continues, and 5000 head sold on
Monday and yesterday at 49,, 49, and IA
cents net for all November, and holders
now ask 10 cents net. And we may add
that II to ID cents gross are being freely
spot; and further, that such prices as
these have never been realized before in
this market for hogs. The cry of short
crops is increasing, and outside parties
are travelling looking for hogs, but report
they can find none, and the conclusion
they arrive at is that there are none to
find. We will take the liberty of sug-
costing, however, that we believe it is
not customary to find hogs by the way
side, when they have an abundance of
food. To pork packers the future looks as
discouraging as can be imagined, for they
reason that it is folly to suppose there is
any profit in pork at the current prices
paid for hogs"

one man and mortality wounded a lady,
before the desperadoess could be forced
to desist On Wednesday following,
Lieut.. Harper, of the 18th Indiana, with
three men and three citizens of Carriers
