At the outbreak of the Rebellion, Gen.
j, Bankhead Magruder abandoned the
Union Army wherein he had been glad to
abide for many years, and took service in
that of the Coniederacy. He fought the
Union til the Iast Confederate flag went
down; then returned to Maryland, and was
there solaced by The proffer of one of the
very best offices in The gift of her Govern
or Swami. which he still enjoys.
Com. Franklin Buchanan in like man
ner abandoned our Navy at the outbreak
Of the War, and became prominent in that
of the Rebels lie brought the NIerrimac
(alias Eirginia) out of Norfolk and des-
troyed several good vessels of the Union
Navy near Fortress Monroe: but the Mont
tor at length drove him off, He fought
us again in The ram Tennessee, which did
us great harm in Mobile Bay, where lie
had bis leg broken; but Farragut at length
captured her, with most of her associates
He, too has just been provided with a
good Office by the Maryland ''Conserva-
tives." We have Mt heard of their giving
any to one-lcggcd Union soldier or sail
or; but we hope they will all get along
some how. 1t is we'll that they don't de-
pend foe living on tire generosity or the
loyalty of Maryland.

FROM WALkERTON.

WALKARToS, Aug. IL,
Ed. REPCBLICAN:- ...s .....s, ~.
In the Plymouth Democrat of last
week, is an account ofa rainstorm the
night after the reception of Colfax.
The account to which / refer, was
written by renegade rebel wLo was
so frightened that he conld not tell
the truth. He says the lightning
struck the pole near the top--slivered
it-jumped the splice and slivered
the pole to within ten feet of the
ground. He then moralizes upon the
effect of the storm, admits that God
who controls all things, was and is
pleased with the policy of the great
liberty party. Having called the
Stars and Stripes an abolitionist flag,
and completely exhausted himself
he closes, a "much alarmed friend. "
No wonder the Democracy are
alarmed. Their doom is plainly writ
ten and they sremble as they read it.
Shame on the man who would wish
to be called q white citizen of this
great land Of liberty, so low and de-
graded as to wish to cast a slur upon
his country's flag.
This pole was not party pole; it
was liberty pole raised on the Alb
OF July. A Friend of
LIBERTY.

Our worthy fellow-citizen, Anderson Yost
superintendent the work. In less than one
hour from the time the first hoist was Civ

County Taxes.

The Plymouth Democrat is very
much exercised over the fact that it
has recently come TO light that Mar
shall county pays just double the
amount of county tax that our neigh
boring counties do, and the office
holders, who own and run that paper
in the interest of the Democratic
clique. are busily engaged In trying
to divert the public mind from inqui-
ring why it is that Marshall county
is taxed so outrageously high, by ly-
ing on the Republican candidates.
The people are, however, determined
to know where the county taxes 60,
and they ask why it is that st. Joseph,
Laporte and Kosciusko counties pay
only half the tax on the one hundred
dollars that Marshall docs.
1t is to the interest Of the Court
House Clique to tax the people heav
lily, as the heavier the tax the better
their pay, and the more money they
will have in their hands. 1t is GER
tainly not to the interest Of the peo-
pie to be taxed enormously from one
year to another for county purposes,
and then TO have special tax levied
for the purpose of building a court
house at some future day that the
clique may designate, and let the
money drawn from the farmers and
laboring men of our county, lay idle
in the treasury, or he loaned out to
the court house clique as has been
done. Notwithstanding our high
county taxes, there is very little to
show for it, unless it is the large sala-
ries of our county officers.
Let the people bear in mind that
our model Democratic officials tax
them just double what the adjoining
Republican counties are taxed, and
let them also remember that this does
not include the special court house
tax.
Should our county continue TO be
taxed as it has been for the past few
years, the Democracy will have to
send for Pendleton and procure one
of his printing presses to manufac-
ture greenbacks to enable the people
to pay their county taxes.
If the Democracy had control Of
our State and National affairs rs they
have Of our county, and exhibited
the same Extravaganza our entire
nation would be bankrupt in less
than four years.

sALUTATORY.

In this issue of tie REPUBLICAN,
the reader will observe that the SUBJ
scriber has entered the Sanefum and
assumed part of the editorial labors.
To us this is new business, and how
well We shall perform the task must
Ne submitted to the criticism of the
public. We are aware, however, Of
the responsibility involved, and our
own defects.
Te many Of the readers we are not
. stranger, but pirate life having
been more congenial to our temper
ament than public gaze, it could not
be otherwise than that many should
be strangers to us politically. 1t is
therefore proper that We should at
least intimate some of the principles
which shall govern MS in our work.
Whatever may have been the de-
sign of monarchies or other forms of
government, It is certain that the Re-
psSs;e Of tie United States was estab-
ished for the protection of the Abso-
lutte Rights ofthe citizen, the chief of
which arc life and liberty. To secure
the end sought in the formation Of
our grand structure, strict reference
should be had to those rights in all
our legislation--the greatest good to
the greatest number, is the policy of
our government. To determine what
Is and what is not for the interest of
the masses, becomes the subject of
discussion out of which grows nu-
clensaroundwhich parties are formed.
AT this time there are two great
political parties holding principles
antagonistic to each other, and as
we believe thu. rights of man are best
secured through the policy Of the
Republican party, it will therefore be
our purpose to strictly adhere to and
feaflessly advocate the principles OF
that party
On such questions, however, as are
open for discussion, and which are
