MODEST. The abolitionists have used the
soldiers in crushing out slavery They now
very modcstly ask the soldiers to vote with
them, and thereby enable them to give the
negroes a vote.

THE LAST STRAw.-Thcrc are many
men in the opposition party who were op-
posed to meddling with slavery in the States;
but since its destruction has been one Of the
results of the war, they say let it go. But
when they are asked to come down to an
equality with the negro and vote with him,
it is more than they can stand-it is the
straw that breaks the camcl's back.
DIsINTEREsTED.- is the men holding
Office who have discovered the necessity for
negro suffrage. 1t is required to keep
them in power. The country got along
three quarters Of century without their in
valuable services, and without having our
elections controlled by negroes. What has

ticket, and live uprightly before God and
man, and you have gained all the original

Nor QUITE DEAD. D.--Therc are two states
remaining in which slaves may be held,
bought, and sold with impunity. These arc
Kentucky and Delaware. 1t will be recol
lected the Emancipation Proclamation did
not apply to slaves in those states. The
constitutional amendment isnot yet ratified
and the states named have not by any act Of
their own freed slave. Therefore slavery
is not quite dead.
A CHANuE.--The Democracy Of Brown
county have changed their mode of making
nominations from the popular vote to the
old Delegate system. A number of othel
counties have done the same thing. Brown
is naturally one Of the strong Democrat,
counties Of the State, but under the popular
vote system, they quarrcled about nomina
tions until they were overtaken by defeat
Hence the change
FAST GIRL.-A Miss Manson, a bewitch
ing "school marm'' who sojourneth abou

lady TO ride with, that. If its all the sam,
to her we had rather not 90 out alone will
hGr-not much.
RATHER MIXED. D.-The returned soldier
of this locality, who have been down Soutl
''whar niggcrs is" generally fail to see tn,
necessity of giving darkies the right to vot,
in order to protect the liberties Of the coun
try. They generally adopt the theory o
President JOHNSON, that the States should
settle the question ofsuhragc for themselves
and those with whom we have conyerscC
are decidedly opposed to Ohio allowin,
nigscrs to vote.
