voItaIre on Marriage.

Yoltaise said: The more married men
you have the Fewer crimes there will be.
Marriage renders man more virtuous and
more wise. An unmarried man is but hulf
Of perfect being, and itrequires the other
half to nuke things right aud it cannot be
expected In 'this inperfectsiate he can keep
the straight path OF rectitude any more than
d boat with one oar, or a bird with on3
wing can keep a straight course. Ia nine
cases ont OF en,whero married men become
dTunkartis, or where they commit crimes
against ihe peace of the community, the
Ioundation Of these acts was laid while in
a single state, or where the wife is, as is
sometimes the case. an unsuitable match.
Marriage changes The current of mans
feelings and gives him center for his
thoughts, lds affections and his acts. Hers
is home for theeentire man and the counsel,
the affections, the example and the interest
Of Ills better half keep him from erratic
courses, and from falling into thousand
Temptations to which he would otherwise
be exposed Therefore, the friend TO mar.
riage Is the friend to society and to his
COinlfry .lEIl al .l-rs.

10 the Voters of Marshall
County.
THE WAY THE MON
EY GOES!

VOTERS; Take this iiSme with you and
examine it at your leisure, calmly and de
liberately. 1t is, as you will see, the Off
cisl ENlii''it of the Receipts and Expendi-
lures OF Marshall County for the year S6G.
Look at the enormous expenses of the
Clerk, Sheriff and Auditor and compare II
with the sums paid those officers under a
Republican Administration. In 1862 a
Republican Clerk drew out of the Treasu-
ry Tor services SIG; in 1866 Democratic
Clerk is paid out of the Treasury S7ss!
How is this. Is there any law for this:
We do not think there is. At least we
have never been able to find any. Then
look at the Sheriff's allowance this year
and compare it with the amount paid a
Republican Sheriff in 1862, which was
S30s, extra allowance and all, or $2GG less
than the Democratic Sheriff draws this
year. Make your own comments. But
look at the enormous expense of the Poor
In 1862 this expense amounted to $iS6O,
this year it is nearly double; but then. a
Republican Board did not employ a ply
sican at FOUR DOLLARS a visit when
another equally competent could be had
for ONE DOLLAR. In addition to the
Poor expense nearly as much more is paid
out on the County Asylum. What was it
for? No one knows. The people in the
vicinity, who ought to know what has
been done in the way of Improvement on
the farm say they cannot see where that
sum has been applied. But if these facts
are astounding, what do you think of the
policy of drawing $4,000 of your money
out of your pockets to build fire proof Off
ces, and then letting it lay idle in the treas
ury. or using it to speculate on: Draw
your own conclusions.

Gen. SteedMan on Negro Suf-
frIge.

Among the NEST prominent supporters of
Mr. Johnson, in Ohio, is General Stced-
man, whose praise is in the mouths of all
the Copperheads ofthe country. The gen
eral served in the late war, and at the bat
tie of Nashville commanded division, one
brigade of which was composed of colored
troops. In May, 1865, he had public re-
ception at his home in Toledo, and in a
speech delivered before the board of Trade
of that city, he paid this compliment to his
black soldiers:
sHe did not hesitate to- declare that but
for the assistance which our cause received
from this race, our arms never could have
made the progress which has so astonished
the world. In the battle of Nashville his
division comprised a brigade of 400 col
ored troops. of whom 420 fell within fifteen
minutes. He knew them TO be brave and
true. and it ,rouh be a lasting shame TO deny
The ballot to men who had done so much
for their country. Men who have proved
true in camp, on picket and on the field oil
battle, can be trusted at the polls
l. General Steedman then declared that it
would be lasting shame to deny the bal
lot to negroes who fought for the Union,
and he has not since disclaimed that SEN
timent. In this he agrees with Andrew
Johnson, yet the hypocritical papers that
pretend to support the President bristle
with exclamations of horror if a Southern
! Union man declares himself in favor OF
lconlering the right TO vote upon General
Steedmans black veterans

negro Suffrage.

C.. III. Reeve VI. y. O. Packard and 9th
er Copperhead speakers, insist in theirpub-
lie addresses that the Constitutional amend
mcnt proposed by Congress. making all
persons born or naturaliZed in the United
States citizens thereof and of the State
wherein they reside. confcrs the right of
suffrage on negroes.
|, Is a little singular that whenever a
Coppcrhcad takes a false and untcnablc
position. the more its untenablcness and
al,Surlity is exposed the more tcnaciously
he adhcrcs to il. Every man of common
sense knows the position Reeve. Packard
and others take on this question is absurd
and ridiculous; they know it themselves;
yet, because they think il calculated to
rouse the prcjudices of the ignorant
against the poor, down troddcn and oppres-
sed negro, they pcrsistin making the as
Scrti0n.
~ it will require only few words to
demonstrate the absurdiiy and untenablc-
ness of the position Copperheads. Turpic
a. well Us lesser lights like Reeve and
Packard have taken on this question, we
propose To 90 so now.
Under the laws of Indiana a man may
he a citizen and not have the right 20 vote,
while person who is n)t a citizen may be-
endowed with the privilege. The young
man of ! = iS ciiiZer. and liable to per-
form military duty. but he cannot vote; 50
are women and children citizens, but who
ever contendcd that they had Il right to
vote? Is rot DISTINGUISHED criminal n
citizen: II not what is he: In South
Carolina and some other Southern States.
previous To the rebellion. a property quail
fication existed and no man not worth a
certain sum was allowed to vote. viii
NeSsrs- Reeve. Packard, Yanvalkenburgh
and all others of the same tribe say that
the white men in those States who were
poverty, were not citizens? They were
subject to military duty as well as other
duties of citizens. In one of the Northern
States suffrage depends upon knowledge.
and in another. in the case of black man
upon his wealth, but in both those who are
disfrancised are regarded as citizens equally
with those who can vote. What would
the English government say to Copper
head in case he were to act upon the pre-
sl1DptiOn that n man born and reared i'm
England. and who had never expatriated
himself, was not citizen of the kingdom
and consequently not entitled to its protec-
ton. because he was not endowed with
the elective franchise?
II any man is so blinded by party preiu-
dice that ne cannot see the absurdity ofthe
Copperhead position, we pity him from the
bottom of our heart.
