But, having passed the prime or life
In stfiving q bseons . wife, s4k<
Without success, she thought a. time ~-
To mend the foliies ef her prime.
Departing frpm the nasal course
OF paint, and such like, for resourcs,
With all her might, this sneisnt maid,
Beneath an oak tree kuek and prayed;
Unconscious that grave old owl
Was perched above-the mousing fowl,
ooh give-a husband giver she cried.
while yet l may become bride,
Soon viii my day of grace be DER,
And then, like many maids before,
I'll die withe 1t early love,
Aud none to meet me there above

Then answer thss, my humble prayer,
And. oh husband give to me-
Just then the owl up in the tree,
IN deep bass tones, cried, " Whoe-skoo-oaAoo p

The Coming Election.

Less than three weeks are now left in
which to make arrangements for securing
full vote at the approaching election
What is to be done must be done soon, or
be left undone. Democrats should remem-
Der that so far as local effects are concern
ed the election this fall is of more import
ance really than the election Of State of
fcers or congressman Once let the coun-
ty Offices pass into the hands of the radi-
Gals, and then comes the same series Of
frauds and REGULATIONS that has always
characterized the party wherever and
whenever it has obtained power. Besides
this, the effect would be bad on the Pres
idential election. Radicalism would be on
a constant rampage from now till then, and
the ohly way to prevent such consummation
is for Democrats to maintain their accustom-
ed majority, and by dint of earnes: effort
If possible increase it. Our opponents are
assiduously engaged trying to persuade
Democrats and doubtful Republicans to
vote for the radical candidates this fall
As yet they have endeavored to labor in
very quiet way, making as little ado as
possible about it, Installing falsehood and
fanaticsm into the minds of the honest
and unwary, hoping thereby to escape no.
tice until it will be too late to undo or
counteract their nefarious work before the
election. No Democrat should forget that
eternal vigilance is the price of liberty"
nor that radicalism is desperate and will
leave no stone unturned to insure success.
Our cause is right, our candidates in ev-
cry way qualified for the several Offices
for which they have been nominated and
should De elected by an overwhelming ma
jority. We institute no comparison be-
tween the candidates of the two parties :;
that is not necessary to any man not blind
ed by prejudice, and with such an one no
light would enable him to see Let every
Democrat consider himself committee of
one to secure as far as in him lies. a sweep
ing majority for the Democratic ticket in
this County.

BEN WADE ON FOREIGNERs.-Old Ben
Wade, who wants to be President in place
of Andrew johnson, made speech at Ma
riettn, Ohio, the other day, in which he
alluded to foreigners i'll the following
chaste language. He said:
"They come here from foreign country
and we give them the privilege to vote
when they know no more than the horse
thew drive. If you will
take the POOR freshman or other foreigner
who comes here and knows nothing of your
iustitutions-if you will permit him to
vote after a five years residence, then /
insist upon the same right for this other
class of persons, (negrOes.) < AS a
mass, in my judgment, they (negroes) are
better qualified to discharge their duties
under this government than the great mass
equal to them in numbers, that we have
ALWAYS permitted to vote | am glad to
say that these people whom your Lesisla-
ture has referred to you to say whether
they shall be voters or not, are infinitely
above the class (toreigners) l have allud-
ed to- in all that Intelligence that qualities

The editor of the Northern Mdianian
thinks financial afflirs in kosciusko have
been better managed than in this county,
and in proof of his statement asserts that
the levy of taxes for county purposes was
greater last year and the year before in
Marshall than in Kosciusko. This is a
sly dodge, and well calculated to deceive
1t is we'll known to the IndtdniQn man
that Kosciusko has not appropriated one
farthing for public improvements for years,
while Marshall has special levy for the
purpose Of building fire-proof Offices and a
court house. 1t is also we'll known to the
Mdianian man that there is not dollar
in the Kosciusko treasury that belongs to
the county, while the treasury of Marshall
has surplus of funds on hand exclusive
of her fund for county buildings. 1t is
further known to the Mdianian man
that only two years ago there was defal-
cation of S12 600 in the admirable man
agement" of the finances of Kosciusko, and
that report, from the best Republican au-
thority, says the matter has not been adj
justed by the defaulter's sureties to this
day, and that $4,000 of that lost money is
giron in the auditor rornrt CO mnch
'smoney on hand" 1t is furthermore
known to the Ind,anian man that it does
not take extraordinary fnanciering to keep
a treasury empty all the time, but in sus-
tanning the credit of the county, making
improvements, and keeping the treasury in
healthy condition financially. consists the
nicely of managing county affairs.

Master and Servant.

Some time ago the office Of the Eagle
paper, of Camden, Ark, was destroyed by
soldiers, led on by Major Pearce. Col
Gilbert, commanding the post, wrote to
Gen. Ord, in which he said "The GEN.
sure of the press directed against the SER
wants of the people may be endured, but,
Gen. Ord, NeiFs force, detailed to enable
him to perform his duties, are not the SER
wants of the people o: Arkansas, but
rather their masters, and it is felt to be
great piece ofimpertinence for newspapers
In this State to comment on Neil under any
circumstances whatever"
Gen. Ord. in reply, says: Your letter of
the 18th ult., in which you attempt to
Justify the act of party of soldiers who,
misled by an officer, forcibly entered cit
zens house and destroyed his property, is
received. You will please explain why
this act was not prevented by you, as post
commander, and if the requirements of
the sd article of war have been complied
with. Your assertion that Neii's forces
are not the servants Of the people of Ar
kansas, but rather their masters, is unjust
to both the people and Neil, and unbound
ed in the laws. and the laws are for the
benefit Of the people. The assumption
that party of soldiers could at their own
option, forcibly destroy citizens proper
ty, and commit gross violation Of public
peace, would not be tolerated under Ma
poleon"
Shades of the immortal Washington =
has it como to this, that few men dressed
in army uniform, commanded by an up
start in shoulder-straps, have become the
masters ofthe people? Well did our faith
ers dread the influence of a standing army
in time of peace. What they dreaded and
guarded against has become a present ex-
isiing reality-"not the servants Of the
people, but rather their masters" And
this is the legitimate fruit, the first crop
of reconstruction under radical rule The
tendency of radicalism, and its teaching
from the beginning, has been that the
military were the masters and not the ser
wants of the people,
All honor to Gen. Ord for giving expires
sion to the manly sentiment: "The as
sumption that a party Of soldiers could a
their oun option fo.ciJly destroy a citizen
property, and commit a gross r'olat'o" Q,
public peace, ,rould not be tolerated under q
Napoleon" And yet such things were
''tolcartcd under" Lincoln, commanded
by Stanton, aud submitted to BY the
people True, they submitted under pro
test, not having the power to make sue
cessful resistance But now, we of the
north at least, have the power to rebukt
the perpetrators of these outrages on the
liberties of the people Let the people by

BooTH's TRUNK.-A Washington dis
patch says the War Department has refus-
ed to allow the trunk Of Wilkes Booth
which has been detained at the National
Hotel, to be forwarded to Edwin Booth,
who requested it from the proprietor Of
the hotel in order that the family might
obtain all of Booths effects. A queer law
indeed, which makes a mans private prop
erty pay forfeiture for his crimes. Our.
is government of jaco5inism, not gov
ernment of law, as administered by radicals
