Democratic Treachcry to
IrfShmen

LIT llltuOll vi llltu luluiSuto iV pdio-
lei of party so utterly false to all its pied
ges as that which calls itself Democratic.
Not only has it proven false to liberty in
this country, rebelling against the decision
of the people at the ballot-box, waging four
years of desolating war and sacrificing hun
drcds of thousands of lives and wasting
hundreds of millions of dollars in its en-
deavor to break up this government and to
perpetuate man. stealing and woman whip
ping-not only is it guilty of these crimes,
but, in bowing to the golden calf, Andy
johnson, it has sacrificed Irish liberty
1t has always commanded the entire Irish
vote, and for the last ten years every vic
tory it has gained has been due to this fact
1t has profcssed the most cxtravagant de
yOtiOn to the interests of the exile and yet
when called upon to prove those profes-
sions by deeds, its members have clutched
their purses, its President elevated TO his
Office by bullet fired by Democratic as
sassip, tenders them a proclamation styl-
ing them ''eyil disposed persons and its
Senators vote to turn them away from the
public buildings of the nation. Nor is this
conduct strange when we reflect that its
sympathies are all for slavery and despot
ism. and we could hardly expect party
which had just emerged, beaten and van
quished, from a protracted war which il
waged against liberty, to feel much solicit
tude for freedom in Ireland or elsewhere
The real estimate which Democrats place
upon irishmen was expressed in Nanval-
kenburg's remark, characterizing them as
ignorant men, who naturally vote the
Democratic ticket" They are also a
convenient scape-goat for Democratic sins,
and the Chicago Times attempted to throw
upon them the responsibility of the muir
derous riots at Memphis, by speaking of
them as the result of natural antipathy
between Irishmen and negroes" Ofcourse,
the humane and Christian rebels therea-
bouts had nothing to do with the affair. 1t
was the Irish who shot down unresisting
men, outraged unoffending women, mur-
dered helpless babes, robbed and pillaged.
burned school-houscs and churches. and
reveled in blood, murder and arson until
their natural antipathy" was appcased.-
How much longer will the Irish people
consent to remain the vassals of a party
that would use them for such base ends.

combination of internal disorders greatly

The People Aroused!
Monster Meetings at Argos
and Bourbon.

Mr. Colfax spoke at Argos and Bourbon,
on Monday and Tuesday last, according to
appointment His reception on both oc-
casions could not but have been highly
gratifying to him. He was met at both
places by tremendous much
the largest that ever assembled before in
either place, and his speeches though
lengthy, occupying as they did nearly three
hours each in the delivery, were listened to
with rapt attention to tile close. We will
not attempt to give even the substance of
his remarks, but suffice it to say, he dis
cussed the issues and questions of the day
in courteous, candid and statesmanlike
manner, and to the entire satisfaction of
all Union men, at least, who heard him,
besides number of honest and patriotic
Democrats, who heard him for the first
lime.
Judging from the honorS paid Mr.. Col
fax, both at Argos and Bourbon, the Union
men of those sections Of the county are
wide awake and will give a good account
ofthemselves in October.
The crowds at both places were about
equal in numbers. we judge; if any, the
difference was in favor of Bourbon. The
lowest estimate we heard of the numbers at
Argos was $500, but we thought 5000
people were assembled on that occasion
There were at least that many present at
Bourbon.
The stands at both places were tastcfully
decorated, and the arrangements reflect
much credit on those who were concerned
in planning them

Taxation Of Bonds.

1t is urged, says an exchange, against the
constitutional amendment submitted by
Congress to the States, that the ith section,
if ratified, would forever prevent any Con
gress from repeating the exemption clause
in the act authorizing the issue of bonds
1t may be proper to show that the exemp-
ton feature of the act is not the result of
the provision in the law. but the legitimate
influence of the constitution itself The
following decision was given by the Su-
preme Court of the United States, with
Judge Taney on the bench, in a case at is
sue between one Daniel DObbins and the
Commissioner of Erie county, Penn. The
Commissioner had assessed for State and
municipal purposes the salary of Dobbins,
an officer of the L. S. Navy. He appealed
to the several State Courts with adverse re-
suits. He finally carried the case to the
Supreme Court of the United States, where
the judgments of the lower courts were re-
versed in the following opinion:
Taxation is sacred right. essential to
the cAlcttnCc vi 1oNtItIiltllt, III lnclUtut Ol
sovereignty. The right of legislation is CO.
extensive with the incident, to attach it up
on all persons and property within the juris-
dictiOn of State.
But in our system there are limitations
upon that right There Is a concurrent
right of legislation in the States, and the
United States. except as both are restrained
by the Constitution of the United States
Both are restrained by express prohibitions
in the Constitution; and the States, by such
as are reciprocally implied, when the ex-
ercise of the right by a State conflicts with
the execution of another sovereign power
delegated to the United States. That Oc-
ours when taxation by State acts upon
the instruments, and emoluments, and per
sons which the United States NAV use and
employ as necessary and proper means To
execute their sovereign power. The gov
ernment of the United States is supreme
within its sphere of action.
The compensation of an officer is fixed
by law made by Congress. II is its ex-
elusive discretion to declare what shall be
given. ANY law of a State imposing tax
upon the office. diminishing the recompense
is in conflict with the law of the United
States which secures the allowance to the

The UmiOnists of North Carolina.

A well known Unionist, in transmitting
the proceedings of several enthusiastic
Union meetings in Western North Carolina,
writes as follows to the Chronicle from
Raleigb: "The storm of obloquy and de-
nunciatiOn, both social and political, now
beating upon the devoted Union men of
this State, is heavier than il was in 1860. 1t
is regarded as worse to sympathizc even
with Radical than it was TO urge the peO-
pie in $50 to submit to MIR. Lincoln. But
the true Union men are firm and undismay-
ed. The fire of loyalty burns in their
hearts, if with a smothered yet an. undying
flame. We are looking with the utmost
interest to the pending Northern elections.
We implore the true Unionists fthe North
TO stand firm. as their triumph will be ours
Marshall County Republican., 1866-08-30

That brilliant luminary, the Bourbon .
correspondent of the Democrat. cast some
serious and scorching reflections upon us
in his communication last week, but we
are consOled by the knowledge that Dan
iel thought even worse Of Lincoln and 9th
er great and good men than he does of us.
He exhausts Shakespeare in his endeavOr TO
pile maledictions upon our head, and calls
us ''upas tree" and other hard names, but
we remember when he denounced Lincoln
as "a rObber or fool" and characterized
his Proclamation OF Freedom as "a bull
against the comet" and as IAN act of usurp-
ing tyranny" He also had very poor
opinion of our armies, and was inclined to
regard Sherman's march to the sea as "a
grand raid of thieves" He felt very Ger
tain that the South could never be conquer
ed, and hoped that ''Lincoln's hirelings"
would be welcomed by the chivalry with
bloody hands to hospitable graves" In
view of these facts, we conclude that the
Bourbon Democratic is not reliable
guide. In fact its delusive light reminds
us much of '-the-wisp, and, after
all, it may be nothing more than a tin-lan-
tern suspended in a dark vault.
The secret of Daniels hatred and hosiil-
ity toward us is that we materially aided
in his defeat for Recorder of Marshall coun-
ty, once upon a time. This he regards as
1.-The most unkindest cut of all," and as we
are not disposed to ask his pardon, we pre-
sumo we will go to our grave unforgiven-

JOhnsOn's Compliment to the
FeUianS.

Mr.. Hendricks, in his Circle speech, said
that no true Fenian could vote the Union
ticket. OF course not. He must vote the
Johnson ticket, of which Mr. Hendricks
is a distinguished champion. Did not John
son compliment the Fenians hugely i'm his
celebrated neutrality proclamation, and
roast and half starve several hundred of
them in an old scow in the Niagara river?
His proclamation opened by applying to
the Fenians the endearing appellation of
''evil disposed persons and his subsequent
proceedings were equally complimentary.

mans to vote against the Johnson Democ-
racy,-Ind. Jour.

a Demagogue Silcnced.

The Copperheads of the Tenth District
hive nominated one Bob Lowry, small
FRY lawyer of Goshen, who by some strange
means got 10 be Judge. as their candidate
for Congress. This worthy will he rcmcm-
bered as having made violent harrangue
at the first Copperhead gathering in the
Circle here, which disguised even his po-
liiical friends. He is also the man. who
being at the time a Judge, when brought
up for violation of plain law of Con
gress, plead ignorance of the law in excuse.
Well, this model jurist has undertaken a
joint discussion with Major Williams the
Union nominee. At the first meeting at
Goshen, Lowry, charging that great ingrat-
itude had been shown to the soldiers by the
Union party, cited the case OF. Mr.. Dear
doff, formerly of the 74th Regiment, who
had been wounded in the service, and was
defeated for nomination before Union
Convention. The rebel orator shed many
a crocodile tear at this sad case, and en-
pressed deep sympathy with the maimcd
hero. This, Lowry thought was very
strong point When Major Williams went
to speak however, the soldier referred to,
who happened to be present, wrote on a
card as follows, and handed it to the Ma
jor: II ,covh rather cote for The rebel fhst shot
me than for Bob Lomry." The effect of this
was perfectly crushing, and it is said that
Lowry has vowed never to attempt to
sympathize with the Union soldiers again.
