THE NEssROES.

Five C0l0red men voted In LICK
township at the recent election. Under
Democratic decision, they were legal
voters, being more than half white
Some of the copperheads tore around
dreadfully, no doubt thinking that the
constitution" was tore up. There are
good many people who believe that a
loyal negro, (and negroes are all loyal,)
has as much right to vote as the sneaks
and towards who ran off to Canada to
avoid saving the country during the
Democratic rebellion.
Gen. Butler, in his speech at Column
bus two weeks ago, thus treated of this
subject:
"Now our "boys in blue" at Pitts
burgh say, "we vote as we shoot" and
l believe if we were to give the negroes
the right to vote, they would vote as
they shoot, on our side. And without
insisting at this time and this hour upon
any other qualification, ! take my stand
with Gen. Steedman, of this State, on
this proposition, that they who have
borne arms in defense of the Govern
ment should have the privilege Of voting
in that Government.
| call your attention to the fact that
this principle is not and may never be
the platform of the party; but have
spoken of it as my personal platform,
because had certain personal reasons
for making this statement. By order
of the Government | was authorized to
take three thousand colored troops and
put them in battle array. They went
behind the abbattis on the 29th Of Sep
tember, to take the rebel fort at New
Market, the highest key to Richmond.
The fort was surrounded by double
lines of this abattis, and below, the mar.
gin of creek ran through. That fort
had resisted the attack of Hancock'E
corps on the 10th and 10Th Of August
The commanding general ordered Inc tc
take that fort
| put in a column of 5000 negro
troops, with guns upon their shoulders
at right shoulder shift. l had ordered
taken from their nipples, the caps, St
that they might have no temptation tt
fire. | then ordered them to take tina
fort, and forward they went on doubl
quick. They went forward under
terrible fire of that double line and stop
ped only on the hill side to breathe, ant
then went over with a flash, and tn
rebels never stopped running for fou
miles.
1t became my duty as commanding
general to ride over that track they ha
charged, scarcely twice as wide as thi
} platform, $50 yards in length, and witt
in that space lay SAG dead and wounde
negro soldiers And as l guided m
horse this way and that way lest b
3 should tread upon what seemed to m
the sacred dust, | saw lying there wit
their faces gistening in the summer su
r as they were turned toward Heaven, an
, | appealed to God for justice, and the
and there as looked and thought no,
S we'll they fought, and how little the
t had received, | swore then and ther
that my right hand might forget her cul
D ming, and my tongue cleave to the roc
g of my mouth, if | failed to stand b
a them and labor for their just right
: since they had thus laid down theirlivo

HOW THEY LOVE SOLDIERS.

It will be remembered that the Dem
ocrats always opposed soldiers voting
At the recent election the crippled SOL
diers, at the Soldiers Home, near Co
Iumbus, were not permitted to vote, by
the copperhead trustees. These men
were totally disabled, in defense Of our
country, and the State of Ohio provided
them q Homs--all the homo they havei
yet, because trey desired to vote against
the rebels that disabled them, the cop
perhead trustees refused their votes.
Oh how these democrats love tho
Soldiers!

VNHIS Is an article for washing without rubbing,
Il except in very dirty places, which will re-
quire very slight rub, and unlike other prepar-
ations offered for like purpose t0iN not rot tho
clothes but will leave them much sohiter than or
binary methods, without the usual wear and tear.
II removes grease spots as If by magic, and
softens the dirt by soaking, so that rinsing will in
ordinary cases entirely remove 1t.
This powder is prepared in accordance with
chemical science, and upon process peculiar to
itself, which is secured by LIE tiers Patent. 1t has
been in use for more than year, and has proved
itself an universal favorite wherever 1t has been
used Among the advantages claimed are the fol-
lowing, viz:
1t saves all the expense Of soap usually used on
white and linen goods.
1t saves most of the labor of rubbing, and wear
and tear
Also, for cleaning windows it is unsurpassed.
With one quarter the time and labor usually re-
auired it imparts beautiful gloss and lusre much
superior to any other mode. No water required
except to moisten the powder
Directions with each package.
And can be readily appreciated by single trial.
The cost of washing for afamily of five or six per-
SONS will not exceed three cents.
The manufacturers of this powder are aware
that many useless compounds have been intro
duced to the public which have rotted the cloth,
or failed in removing the dirt, but knowing the
intrinsic excellence of this article, they confident
ly proclaim it as being adapted to meeta demand
which has long existed and which has heretofore
remained unsupplied.

EDITOR JACKSON Standard
Dear Sir: In viewing the monopo-
lizing condition of this village, we are
led to believe that our little village is
winding its way in business unnoticed
by any one, save our selfish monopoli-
zers, who are few. 1t is astonishing
that our worthy representative from this
place.in the State Legislature has not
made some motion to modify the pres
ent course OF business in this place the
reason | say this place, is because l do
not think there is place in the State of
Ohio requiring modification as this place
does. There are here altogether six
teen stores, fourteen of these controlled
by the other two. They are controlling
them by compelling the laboring class
of this place to deal in their respective
stores at ten per cent higher than at any
other establishment in town.
Now l will ask our worthy represen-
tative, Mr.. Trip, is it not shameful and
outrageous, that after person has been
in the coal mines, battering his brains
from six in the morning until six in the
evening, he has got to deal in their
stores at exhorbitant prices, instead of
getting his money (at least once month";
to go and buy where he can get his
articles ten per cent cheaper9 Must the
laboring man, because he earns his
bread by the sweat of his brow, in an
humble sphere, for himself and family,
be looked upon as degraded being
Is it not absolutely necessary that our
State Legislature should, at the first
opportunity, make some laws, so that
the laboring class may be protected from
the imposition which they have to re-
ceive from the hands of those devilisf
fends who would have them to labo
for nothing. Could they any way de
wise plan, it is to the interest of tn,
whole community here, TO have som,
enactment by which the laboring clas
can be protected in advocating thei
; rights. The idea of one man monop
olzing the whole place is an outrage o.
the community. Our business mel
> feel it from the higher to the lowe
! branch.
, What would this place be if it wer
> not for the mining operationsi Ther
would be no business at all in oompar
son with the present state of things
t therefore we will hope that our con
D plant will get some attention in OF
9. Legislature this fall, and that Mr. Trip
= will take the thing in hand in earnes
for which he will receive not only II

This gain was III JEFFERSON, ml'toh anu
Lick, where large numbers of Irish were
hired to wort, just Mry-three days before
the election. In Jefferson there was a
rebel gain in one year of one hundred
and fourteen. While the Union major
ity in Jackson was reduced, the Union
gain was increased in all the townships
adjoining our county. Bloom in Scioto,
Washington in Lawrence, Raccoon in
Gallia, aud Clinton in Vinton, made
large Union gains. This explains it all.
But send them in. We can stand a
strain of couple of hundred more, and
then come out right.

BRITISH LIBERALnTY.

The London Times, thought 1t an out
rage that Jefferson Davis should be even
imprisoned, not to say that be should be
tried and hanged, is now demanding that
Stephens, the head of the Fenian conspira-
cy, shall by hanged, if he is recapturcd,
and not only he but all his confederates.
In long article on the approaching trea-
son trials in Ireland the Times says:
"No Government can afford, in justice
to itself or its subjects, to deal lightly
with suca combinations. While we re-
joice that no extraordinary measures of
coercion, have been necessary, we should
regret to see any of these prosecutions
abandoned. The law should be left to
take its course and If conviction be OBJ.
tanned against any of the prime movers in
the contplracy, his punishment, without
being yindictive, should be exemplary. 80
The Times denounced, as tyranical, ,des4
potic, uncomfortable, and demanding the
intervention of England, Mr.. Lincoln's
few interferences with the liberty of the
press during the crisis of our tremendous
civil struggle; but it now not only ap-
proves the suppression of an Irish news
paper, but applauds the ingenious trick Of
the British Attorney General, by which
Luby, the proprietor of the IRISH People,
1c ho 60 h,,S
press prosecution" says the Ttnses-oh
uo!-the Attorney General will treat the
seditious articles of the Irish People as q
series of overt acts" rg;s
The Times held. when our war was
closed, that immediate, unconditional and
universal amnesty of the South was the
only statesmanlike and righteous policy of
our Government but it supports aud
praises the Jamaica planters who continued
to fog and hang "rebels' for more than
three weeks after resistance had ceased
and the so-called rebellion had been ex.
tinguished; and it will no doubt Justify
the planters in their proposal to entirely
extiDguish political and religious liberty
in Jamaica by acts which are now before
the colonial legislature. .r-.- Eae

MeerSChaum, /,

This is a German word aud means sea-
foam, that is, the color of the sea-foam.
The:idea that the pipes of that name are
made cut of sea-foam, or anything like it,
is erroneous. Meerschaum is mineral
proper, found in the serpentine or magne-
sian rock. 1t occurs chiefly at the head
of the Mediterranean, where it is dug out
of its native bed, and sent to Europe in
blocks or rude pipes 1t is of a white OF
whitish color. The brown or reddish
cast is obtained by saturatlng them with
oil or wax. Meerschaum is composed OF
flint silex, magnesia and earbon--iihLa
carbon and flint in an oxydized state. It
is soft aud porous. It's porosity gives
1t its properties as a pipe, absorbing by
it the poisonous qualities of the smoke.
1t is, however, inferior to clay pipe in
this respect but better than the briar
pipe, which is next to it. There 10 one
fault with the meerschaum pipe-the
bowl is too short. Tobacco itself is an
absorber of the poisonous qualities Of the
smoke--a0d when the smcke passes thro'
tobacco--as it will 10 long bowl the
column of smoke in it being long--it will
become purified precisely the way it does
in cigar. The first half of the cigar
affords harmless smoking, the latter half
less and less SO, till the poisoned stump
remains. So with tobacco in the bowl of
a pipe. A long bowl puts it in toe foFu
of cigar. The first smoking is tue best
Gas every smoker knows is the case with
pipe-smokiug), especially if the distance
through the tobacco is great One st0u,d
always stop smoking when the tobacco is
half out. The remainder is permeared by,
the poison-aud in that is the hurt We
get from smoking. ... -...-
