The great issue before the people is,
whether all the powers of Government
shall be concentrated in the hands OF the
General Government-the States being re-
duced to the condition of counties-and
consolidated despOtism be thereby estab-
lished; or, whether those rights OF local
selt-goVernment which our fathers enjoy
ed and which we inherited from them, and
without which there can be no real liberty,
no wise government, no public economy,
no light taxation, shall be preserved
A powerful faction, represented bya ma
jority in Congress, have conspired to over
throw the free and beneficent institutions
of our fathers, and to substitute therefor an
Oligarchy of privileged classes, crushing
the mass of the people and all individual
liberty, under the weight of despOtic and
unrestricted General Government. To eff
feet this object, they, in plain violation Of
the Constitution, exclude eleven States
from representation in Congress, and insist
upon comforting upon negroes the right
to vote-not out Of regard to the negro,
but because they expect to be able,
with their money, to control his vote, and
thereby perpetuate their party ascendency.
Let every man who is opposed to the
schemes of the conspirators, who cherishes
the institutions founded by our fathers,
who appreciates the necessity and benefits
of local self government, who is opposed to
seeing the great State of Ohio shorn of her
dignity and reduced to the dependent con-
dition of a county, or who is opposed to
Negro Suffrage, join with the Democracy
in rescuing our country from the grasp of
the Malignants.

tral Committee of Ohio. ..-.. .rr,ru-.

A MatrinoninI restorative.

Hartford (Wisl Cor. Milwaukee SentiI ell
A singular case of matrimonial fits, a
newly discovered disease, has lately come
before the attention of the good people of
this village. 1t was remarkable, not so
much by its manifestations, as by the man
ner in which a speedy cure was brought
about. g ... . #a.. |r..s.,r.--.
A young man of this place, not yet out of
his teens, had been paying his attentions
to young lady some three years his junior,
and has for some time been pressing upon
the parents of both parties the necessity of
an early marriage, but being refused this
very reasonable request, he was compelled
to resort to strategy of the most ingenious
description. ,l.- .. I...-n.
He was seized with fainting fits, and a
council of the village physicians being call
ed, the most powerful remedies known to
the profession were tried, but to no pur-
pose. His case was given up as hopeless by
his friends, and being asked if he was fully
prepared for the dreadful solemnity Of
death, replied that he was, with the excep-
tion of one thing. If he could but marry
his Mary Ann he would die happily. His
dying request certainly could not be re-
fused, and Mary Ann having no objections,
the minister was sent for, and the solemn
OrdinanceOf marriage was performed be-
fore the most solemn messenger of death
should step in to snatch away the gasping
bridegroom from time to the regions of
eternity. uu..Hgl 1s 8god way sli.
The end of this should-haye-been solemn
occurrence has transpired in thiseonclusion.
The sick man arose from he'd Immediately
after the knot had been tied, well man.
What school of physicians will be the first
to take advantage OF this new curative in
their method Of practice? sar .u ...H

hints were expensive Ones) to silence their
opposition and secure their votes. The bill
passed. He posted back to Boston, and
copied from the books of the receiving ship
at the Charlestown Navy Yard the names
of about six thousand men who had enlist
cd there, giving this city as their residence.
The list was passed to the credit of the
city on the books of the provost officers, the
quota was filled, and Boston was saved from
draft.
The rejoicings of the city authorities
over this preservation were interrupted by
the presentation of Mr.. Burrilfs bill, $l25
for each name which his exertlons had OBJ
tanned, amounting to about three quarters
of a million of money. The contract, Civ
en- with the hope that he might enlist a
hundred men, seemed to stand equally as
good now that 6,000 names had been obtain
ed at a cost for single recruits but appal-
ling in the aggregate. The Mayor, in de-
spair, wished TINT by the sacrifice OF his
entire fortune, he could wipe away the
debt under which he had placed the tax
payers. Propositions of compromise were
made, and Mr.. Burrill was allowed an
amount which would have made him
wealthy to relinquish his claim. He de-
manded the whole sum, however, and would
not abate jOt. Consultations with law
yers followed. The city authorities took
heart, aud determined to fight the case in
the courts. An imposing array of counsel
was engaged on both sides, Gen. B. F. But
Ter heading the plaintiffs force. The trial
was begun last week. After Mr.. Burrills g
testimony was all IN, the defendants asked
the court to take the case from the jury on
questions of law to be decided by a full
bench. After some hours OF argument, this
was done, and although of course the de-
cision was not final, Mr.. Burrill's claim, for
which five days ago he would not take five
hundred thousand dollars, is now worth
nothing at all. The point made by the de-
fendant's counsel, of course, was that the
Mayor had no authority to make such a
contract, and there is every probability
that it will be so decided. Had the amount
claimed been tenth of what it was, it
would undoubtedly have been paid without
resort to law; but Mr.. Burrill's voracity
was not content with a small sum, and no
taxpayer is sorry that he has now lost the
whole. ....r .......... ..

LOGICAL Parallels.

The Bellefonte Press (shoddy) lately made
a comparison between p. Gray Meek, of
the Wdtchmdn and negro, as follows:
"The same sun pOurs its warm rays upon
the humble negro as it does upon Meek {;
the same clouds sprinkle the gentle rains
over the garden of the negro as over that of
Meek; the same springs yield for the negro
the sparkling beverage of Gods creation as
they do for Meek; the same air God gave
Meek to breathe, he also gave the black
man /; the same grain that grows for Meek,
God also directed to grow for the African ;
all, everything, has the Creator, the Father
of Meek as well as of the African, placed
in this world for the enjoyment of Meek as
we'll as of the African. Where, then, is the
distnction?" ...
Meek thereupon "went in" and used up
the Press man in the following happy and
logical style: ...
"What a sumner! The same sun pours its
warm rays upon the lazy Ass that does up
on the editor of the Press the same clouds
sprinkle the gentle rain over the back of the
Ass that does over the head of Hutchinson
the little springs yield for the Ass the
sparkling beverage of Gods creation that
they do for Hutchinson; the same air God
gave Hutchinson to breathe he also gave
the Ass; the grain that grows for Hutchin-
son God also directs to grow for the Ass
the same sleep that secures rest for Hutch
insOn secures it also for the Ass. Where,
then, is the distinction? Hutchinson eats,
drinks, sleeps, breathes, walks, runs. gets
tired, rests, and so does the Ass. He has
ears. eyes, nose, mouth, body, legs and feet;
so has the Ass. He is stupid, greedy, long
cared and homely so is the Ass. Where,
then, is the difference2 Only in this: he is
an Ass that gets round on two legs, while a
majority of that breed get round on four.
We leave it to our readers to judge if the
logic in one case is not as conclusive as in
the other" ......f.

the legacy to the Queen of Prussia was
never paid, though her son, well known as
rough demands for settlement, which l. is
royal uncle never made. Horace Walpoie
has stated the particulars in full. That
Queen Victoria, whose fiat gives compile
tiOn to all laws framed and passed by the
British Parliament, should thus personally
violate the common law of succession, is
much wondered attn England. But "what
is everyone's business is nObody's busi-
ness" so that it is not likely that she will
be called on to register, deposit and prove
her defunct husbands last will and testa-
ment.
