.AGoop EXAMpLE.-An exchange thus
records the good example of a prominent
Democrat in the proper dissemination Of
Democratic principles: "Onc of our sub
scribcrs came TO our Office one day last week
and renewed his subscription for another
year. Hc then ordered n copy otthc paper
to be sent to his two brothers aud his work
man, and then paid for them II year in ad-
vance, rcmarking that "these were times
when men ought to read the truth" We
record ,liscxample Of u humble but earnest
Democrat with pleasure. IL is worthy to be
followed by Others. Let the people read
sound papers aud understand FULLY the aim
and object of the Jacobn leaders, and there
will be change in the public opinion. Old
men should encourage the young men to
take and read Democratic papers. Let
them grow up with correct principles. We
commend the above to the consideration of
our friends in the county.

RAILnoADING.-The strong rivalry ex-
listing among the different railway compan-
les to direct travel to their respective roads
has been the means of securing many I'M
provcmcnts conducive TO the safety and
comfort Of passengers. And now expert
mcnts are being made with coal oil as fuel
Tor generating steam, which, if found prac-
tical will abolish another disagrccable an

stanton Kicked Ont.

Lnus Deol johnson has done one good
thing. He has kicked Stanton out of the
Cabinet. lie would not go out until he was
kicked out. In this respect we fear he rep
rescnts the Mongrcl party. 1t is doubtful
whether they will give up power until CON-
pclled to. Mr.. johnson asked Mr.. Stanton
to resign, when he sent most insulting le.-
ter, telling him that he would not, where.
upon Mr.. johnson suspended him, and
made General Grant acting Secretary of
War. We would fondly hope that the
linch-pin being knocked out the whole
wagon will fall to pieces. There has been
a mysterious influence surrounding Mr..
johnson, which no theory has been able to
unravel. Why he should retain Stanton,
who has opposed him at every step, and why
Seward should be the defender and support
or of Stanton, though pretending to differ
from him, and support the President, all
these are curious facts, and difficult to be
understood by outsiders.
Would that Andrew johnson would rise
like giant refreshed, and hurl the enemies
of our country to perdition. All he has to
do is, simply to Obey his oath Of office. lie
is Commander in Chief of the army. Let
him Withdraw it at once from the southern
States and send it to Gen. Sherman to pro-
tect our western settlers; Let him admin
lister the government on the Constitution
pure and simple, and pay no attention what
ever to the so-called laws of Congress, that
presume to wipe out States. Is he to turn
traitor Jeause Congress has? That is the
question for him to ask himself and answer
if ho can. With one grand effort now he
could right the ship of State. Let him put
Seward in the same boat with his friend
Stanton, and get rid at once and forever Of
the whole gang Of plotters, conspirators and
architects of ruin, who have dragged our
country into its present abyss of woe.
