Indiana American. [volume] (Brookville, Ind.) 1865-1872, 1867-02-08

Here II IS, entire, as follows:
Our patriotic President dare veto the Bank.
Aud Americas true sons each give him a warm thank;
He boldly refused TO re-charter the same.
And the sons Of Columbia feel proud Of his name
The friend OF the poor msihis conntrys tried friend
Will neer be forsaken, VIII his measures all tend
Alike 10 protect the rich aud the POOR;
When he varies from that, "sin lies at his dOor."
The Hero of Orleans has been elected
To preside DER the Onion, aud than expected
Ability and skill he has ALREADY Displayed
Yes, even to those whom him Prcsder made.
Let Clay and the Bank against him conspTc,
They can't put him d,wn, raise him much higher;
Let Us be independent. keep on money at home,
Re-elcct Andrew jackson and let aliens roam.
But elect Henry Clay and the Bank he'll re-chartsr.
while foreigners and Clay united DO stand,
Our fayorite Old Hickory prefers its own land.
We Merchants Commerce and Smiths with your hammers.
Ye Heroes who bought snd who wish 10 be free.
In November rally TO your OWN Hickory.
And here again, in the same old smoky
paper, our eye falls upon an advertisement
illustrative of those days of primitive
Hoosierdom. The item of taxes was
smaller in proportion, apparently, than
anything else. What would those do who
buy pork and cabbage now for the Poor
House in Franklin County, if the entire
County revenue for one year amounted TO
only s66S. out of which to pay Judges,
Jurors, support the poor, pay Commits
sioners, Sherffs, Clerks. Treasures. and
all other expenses of the County. Yet
such was the fact.
But to our item. In 1880 John Spen-
Ger WIS Sheriff and Collector of Dearborn
County, and advertised the following lib
eral terms on which taxes and Sberiff's
fees could be paid, to wit:
Produce Receives for Taxes, &c.
NOTICE is given 10 tho>e who are IN AZ
rrars for taxes. fees or accounts, who wish TO
avail themselves of III oipori unity of pa wing

Hogs, or Onions with The stems. or any other
articles iha, may .uii; or | will take labor
such as chopping aud hauling wood and re-

Many of our public officers are getting
rather stiff to receive their pay in "Op-
ions tcith The stems" but as many of
them are in favor Of the "Conslitu-
ton as it was, and the Union as it is"
probably they would be willing to go back
to first principles and take "olions with
the stems"
Reading, the other Cay, the philippe of
Collect Us Smith, | was reminded of what
used to be done in your County. AT the
August term OF the Franklin Circuit Court
of 1880. Catherine Bilbee obtained a
judgment of 81 900 against Mark Harper
Tor SANDER, and Daniel Curry recovered
500 against Philip Jones in similar suit.
and Mrs. Elizabeth Doyle obtained one
cent against VIM. Walker, which it is sup
posed legally purified all their characters
Would the last amount purify the charac-
tiers of Smith and Collet?
