A Radical cOtcmporary, Of the "nc.
gro supremacy and humanity per
suasion, bemoaning the despotism of
Louis Napoleon's (Frcnch monarchy
Government, has the "chcek" 10 say {;
"In one sense IL may be allowed
that, if the French people like this
sort of government, it is no ones bu-
siness but their own. IL they like 10
have a chain about their necks, let
them have it. If they like to have
their press gagged, their freedom OF
speech taken away; if they relish be-
ing perpetually watched in their
houses, doggcd in the streets, ques-
toned for every act, called TO account
for their cemiugs and goings, told
what they may read, and what they
may not read, what plays they may
see acted, and what songs they may
sing; if nation be sunk so low that
it can love such things, for Gods sake
let it hug this loathsome corpse Of life
in peace; we can hold our noses and
keep TO windward."
Louis Napoleon may be very bad
man, and his government may be Q
very despotic one; but, if there il
going to be any holding of noses, OF
keeping to the windward, we suggest
to the editor that he need not cross
the Atlantic for his opportunity. H'
has it-he has helped to create it,
right here at home. He, and hi
party, have "put chain around th'
nvCh.s'' ~ se...s ss----. - sisyi.e ssiiisea'
of white men in the Southern Statel
ofthis Union, as calling as any French
men ever were obliged to wear undoi
a Bourbon or a Bonaparte. They
too, have haG "their press gagged
and their freedom Of speech takeI
away" "perpetually watched in theii
houses, dogged in the streets, ques
toned for every act, called to account
for their comings and goings, tolC
what they may read, and what they
may not read, what plays they may
see acted, and what songs they may
sing" etc, etc, etc. The Radical edi
tor, therefore, who has helped to builc
up this Yankee despotism on this sid,
Of the Atlantic, aud who is still labor
ing TO keep it up with all his nigh
and main, we again submits no
marvellous proper man to be shed
ding tears over a tyranny that is sup
posed to oppress foreign people, il
another hemisphere The whole thing
is but a bit Of Puritan hypocrisy
which can only inspire a sentiment o
unmitigated disgust.-N. Y. Express

of the Presidential movement is the
mention of Colonel Forney's name for

Geary has as little respect for the

because the people Of that city have,
on two occasions, rejected Mr. Thayor,
and they will do it again; yet, Geary

being the Hon. C. NJ, Conrad of Lou

approached and addressed by Mr..
Bolts, but responding to the salutation
by an unrecognizing stare, Mr. Bolts
said; Don't you know John NJ
Bolts ?" "No," replied Mr.. Conrad,
"nor do | want to. Not, however,
because of anything he did during the

war" Mr.. Bolts Immediately turned

ExPENsIvE.-The negro bureauites
charged the Government s230,000 for
assessing $4,000 voters in Virginia
about two dollars and twenty-five
cents head If the assessors of this
county would charge the same rates
this fall, it would cost the county
treasury just ticeiUe thousand dollars.
This is not the only way that the 10y
alists and negroes are robbing the
Treasury. The military establish
ment in the same State costs fpe mil
lion dollars. What the national rob
bers are doing in Virginia, they are
doing in all the Southern States. 1t
now takes more money TO run the
negro bureau than il took to keep up
the whole government in the days of
Democracx.
A loyal exchange says: at is truly
astonishing how the wrong men con-
tinue to be appointed to collect the
revenue. A notable instance we
might name in the neighborhood Of
New York. If such selections are to
continue, and if the one in question
indicates truly the kind of men who
administer the revenue laws, then
there is no wonder that one hundred
millions a year is lost fraudulently."
This writer evidently has a poor opin-
ion of his own party. He is, howev-
er, correct. AS long as loyalists rule
the country the people viii be robbed.

such rapidity as they do, is truly as
Itonishing. Numerous houses are in

will soon be commenced. Two church.
les are to be built this summer. we un-
Iderstand.
The stores are tastefully arranged
well stocked with goods, and the Mer-
chants, are doing good, lively busi-
ness.
The town is pleasantly located, and
surrounded by rich farming lands. Its
population is about 800.
The citizens are liberal, and the au
thorities men who understand theil
business, and work for the promotion
of the interests of the town. Nevada

Incomes.-Many people are under
the impression that unless their incomes
amount to over a $1,000 they are not
required to make a full report to the
Assessor. This is mistake, as all per-
sons are required, by law to report their
incomes whether they be large or small,
so that the Assessor be enabled to de-
termine whether they are liable to tax
alton or not. Those who fail to report,
render themselves liable to a fine Of 90
per cent. penalty.
1t is also made the duty, of persons
engaged in the manufacture of articles.
subject to taxation, to make return of
the amount manufactured each month,
ON or before the 10th of each succeed
ing month. Should they fail to report,
the law requires the Assessor to assess
the penalty. This includes all manu-
facurers of all taxabl article, whether
they manufacture much or little, the
return must be made in every instance
Persons whose business comes within
the provisions of that part Of the Reve-
nue. Law which requires them to pay q
| license tax, will do well not to be de
teeted in transacting such business
without having applied for the required
license. The penalty Is heavy.

soon as the goods arrived, they ISSUED
their proclamation announcing the col

general rush for the new goods, result

We reproduce the Following compli-
mentary notices of our paper, that have
come to our view. from our exchanges.
They are especially gratifying to us,
when we remember the sources from
whence they came.
From the Democratic Union
We neglected, last week. to notice the
decided improvements in the Pioneer, of
this place. which makes it one of the
best and handsomest Republican county
Journals in the State. We are truly
glad to see this evidence of prosperity
in our neighbor.
From the Hancock Jeffersonian.l
The Wyandot PIONEER. of Upper San
dusky has been enlarged. 1t is now in
size on an equality with other Republi-
can papers of this section. and we shall
expect to see it still continue to strike
strong blows in the interest of the
Union party
From the Marion independently
The Wyandot Pioneer has been much
improved in appearance lately as well
as enlarged. We trust the Union men
of Wyandot will stand by the Pioneer.
and enable Bro. Cuneo to make his pa
per all they could wish it to be. The
way paper is sustained has much to
do in encouraging the publisher. May
success attend the Pioneer.
From the Kenton Democrat
The Wyandot Pioneer has come to us
enlarged and otherwise improved. We
wish it success pecuniarily, but death
to it politically. Its politics are black
very black-blacker than a stack OF
black cats in dark cellar. Too much
negro, p. Cuneo.
