Constitutional Amendment.

The Republican press without exceptions, are
giving vigorous support to the proposed amend
mcnt 10 our State COnstitut ion, while the oppo-
sition press are out In all manner Of objections,
such as il adopted and the negroes are permitted
to vote they might vote for repudating the pub
lie debt and are in agony of soul over the
thought Of dlsfranchislng the soldiers Poor fcl-
lows, don't they know that the amendment does
not contemplate DISTINGUISHING single honorable
soldier, but just those who like the South, brought
disgrace and Acknowledgement upon themselves.
The laws Of all nations punish deserters in time
Of war, more severely than this amendment pro-
poses to punish those who after taking an oath
to support the government, and being fed, clothed
and paid by said government, when the hour Of
trial came, left their comrades and went over to
the enemy or fled 10 some other country 10 pre-
vent being compelled to return to their standard,
Why Is II they feel SO solicltous about the soldier
nowS Did they not during the war sav all man
ner of false and malignant things about them,
calling them Llncoln's hlrelings, satraps, thieves
and robbers, and pronounce the war u failure |?
But now the soldier is u gentleman, and next to
the dear southern brethren, they love him. Let
the soldier bo not deceived by these oily tongues
IL is only your vote they want, after which YOU
will still be hlreng and Jacobin.--The Republic.

DEMOCRATIC VERACITY.

Those who were in the habit of read
ing Democratic papers four or five
months ago, will remember seeing an
account of a SANDER suit brought by
Gen. Butler against "Bnck" Pomeroy,
editor of the La Crosse Democrat. This
low, dirty blackguard, Pomeroy, pub
lished what purported to be letter
written by Gen. Butler to him, propos-
ing to withdraw the suit, provided
Pomeroy would not say anything more
about his (Butler's) stealing spoons &c.
Gen. Butler then wrote to the New
York Tribune, stating that he had never
sued Pomeroy, and had never written
to him, and that the whole thing was
lie and forgery. Buffers letter was
copied into the Union papers all over
the country.
Although Pomeroy's vulgar, dirty,
lying letters were copied into the cop
perhead papers in every county, yet not
ONE of them, except the Adams county
Defender, ever had the honesty to pub
lish Gen. Buffers short note, or even
refer to it.
And now we see another batch Of the
low efusions of this dirty dog Pomeroy
going the rounds of the Democratic
press. But lies, forgery and slang,
keep the rebel party alive.

There was no return from Jackson
township, the people there perhaps not
voting either way.
1t was found absolutely Indispensable
TO have Court House and Jail, and
the only way to get them was to have a
special act passed for that purpose.
Tho county Commissioners and Mr.
Trip took the matter in hand, aud after
hard work in the Legislature by Mr.,
Tripp, assisted by Mr., Glover and 9TH
ers Of tho IIousc, and our Senator, Mr.,
Wilson, Mr. Bradbury and others, the
act finally passed the Senate on the 9Th
of March, 1866, having previously
passed the House,
The people Of the county made no
opposition to tho passage of the law
during the time that it was before the
Legislature.

MORE TYRANNY.

: Now that the United States army
prevents the lazy drunken rebels in the
: South from compelling the negroes to
work for them for nothing, the rebels
are starving, and have the copperheads
in the North begging money, grain &c
, from the hated Yankees, to keep them
alive while they lounge around corner
groceries, drinking poor whisky, ours
ing Yankees, mobbing Northern speak
: ers, shooting negroes &c.
I What little grain there is in the South
, is manufactured into whisky, to give
courage to the chivalry, while they beg
i their bread from the Industrious people
r of the North. Gen. Sickles has put a
stop to this, by ordering that the grain
/ be made into bread instead of whisky.
,r'S The Democratic press raises its usual
howl about this act of tyranny, Why
!. should not our highminded Southern
. brethren have their corn made into
cheap whisky, while the Northern mud
sill is compelled to furnish bread for the
Southern gentemen2 Oh the tyranny
of Congress!

NEXT PRESIDENT.

The papers are beginning to suggest
candidates for next President and Vice
President. The New York Dag Book
is out for JEFF Davis for President,
The Ironton Register names Horace
Greeley for President, and jeff. Davis
for Vice President. This is wrong end
foremost. Let Davis be put at the
head of the ticket, and Greeley at the
tail. That would show more magna-
nimity, and that is what we are all after
just now. And that is the way in which
these two ilustrious names appear upon
the bail bond, first Davis, then Greeley.
No doubt the philosopher Of the
Tribune would prefer this arrangement,
as he is great admirer of the injured
statesman just now. He recently said
in the Tribune, that instead Of the Gov
ernment requiring security of Davis to
appear and answer, it ought to be re.
quired to give security that it would
treat Mr.. Davis fairly.
Then we hoist the following conser-
vative, Democratic, magnanimous tick
