The 10th District.

One or two or the Democratic papers
in the 10th congressional district speak
rather snappishly about Democrats in
other parts of the STATE meddling," as
they term it, with their affairs, and an
nounce that they are competent to at
tend to all matters pertaining to their
own interests. Strange to say, all this
kind of talk comes from Democratic
papers that are anxious to have an OPP
poltunity to lick the hand of their OPP
pressOr by supporting Gen. Ilascall,
boiling Republican, for congress. We
have no ambition to be looked upon as
a meddler, or one who puts his lip in
where it does not belong; but with all
due difference to the superior wisdom of
those who so CURLY advise outsiders to
mind their own business. We think a
casual glance at the political situation
will convince any unprejudiced mind
that the people of the state-of the
xholc coun.ry-are interested in the
election of congressmen-the member
from the 10th district the same as the
member from any other district. The
votes of the present member from that
district in favor of land-grabs, high Ia
riffs, and monopolics, affect the people
of this district the same that the votes
Of Gen Packard do. As our cotempo-
raries certainly cannot fail to see this
point in the same light that We DO. we
will gently elucidsse their understand
ing on another point, which is, that
Democrats cannot be In honor bound.
without their consent, to support any
nominee for office. unless that nominee
is Democrat. When the party, or its
representatives, go outside Of the panty
organization for a candidate, members
of the party are at liberty to support
such nominee, or not, as they may
choose; and il is not considered very
meddlesome for Democrats anywhere to
discuss the propriety of such action,
either favorably or in opposition.
The position assumed by some of the
Democratic papers in the 10th district,
in their support of Gen. Hascall, is so
inconsistent with the principles Of De-
meeracy that we arc not surprised that
they should exhibit little petulance
when it is referred to. There ia not =
Republican in the state whose record il
more at variance with the principles of
true Democracy, than is the record of
Gen. IIascall; and we do not see how
Democrats can support Linn for any
Office.
If We look upon the probable cardi-
dacy of Gen. Hascall in the light Of ex-
pediency, it is entitled to as little Con-
sideration as when viewed from anv
other standpoint. His nomination would
secure him Only such Democratic votes
as would be eest for an independent
candidate; and as a Democratic candi-
date he would lose more Democratic
votes than he could bring from the Re.
publican party; thus proving him to be
\ weaker candidate than a straight
Democrat wonld be.
We hope our friends in the 10th dis
trict will not consider this article med
d'esome, as we are oaly speaking our
mind, just as we expect to continue do
ing until Gen. Hascalrs "General Or.
der No O. is again put in force.

The goslings who weekly infict their
senseless twaddle upon the readers OF
tie Marshall County Republican, have,
after an incubation of four weeks,
Matched out a notice Of the speech Of
Hon. Horace Corbin at the Democratic
county convention. With all the pen,
derous dignity and whitening denuncia-
ton which Clay or Webster could
bring to bear on an opponent, they
proceed 10 denounce him as a "shyster,"
and annihilatc him with such sarcasm
as they only can employ. The article
bears the evidences of severe mental Ia
Dor, and was doubtless intended to for
ever deter Democrats from making
speeches If the article should fail to
accomplish this result, it is sad to think
of the many weary hours wasted by the
goslings during the period of CESSATION,
as well as the time spent in its revision
by the professors in Wabash college, to
whom it was probably submitted for
revision, and for which service they
have emo doubt sent A. Bill to the RepuJ-
Hcan Office If Mr. Corbin were to no.

The lying, senseless, personal article
in last weeks Republican. signed
Elixir" written by DR.. Gould, of Ar
COS, requires but short answer, as it
was written for the purpose Of sounding
the Doctors praise, which we care
nothing about. His references to the
editors of this paper show him to be a
man of so little sense that he imacines
he can aid bad cause by personal allu-
sions to those in no way connected with
it.
Among the false statements which
DIR. Gould's article contains, is the fol-
lowing:
When st. Joseph county had voted, Mr..
Erwin, of Bourbon, moved that the vote of
be cast for Col. Sumner, (which
was carried. At this juncturc the prime
mover in the withdrawal matter, who had
been denominated Prince, and who had
hoped to be followed by the entire delega-
ton, declared the vote "out OF order as he
was the man to cast the entire vote of the
county. The chairman, however, received
and recognized the vote.
This statement, or any other to the
effect that Marshall county voted for
at the time referred to, has not
even the semblance of truth in it. Mr..
Thayer and others then and there de-
clared that Marshall county was not
voting, the chairman of the delegation,
with others, having withdrawn. Mar

Further along in his article, the Doc
Tor says: with joint representative

plain why Marshall has the candidate

had the same officer two years ? To be
he must support a man from

,iety, and We hope he will obtain it.

ineligible to seat in this body and whereas
j. r. Bennett received the next highest num-

Resolved, That J r. Bennett he anG he is

trict in the place OF A d, Elam, Who is dis
qualified
After this quick but summary proceeding
j. r. Bennett stepped forward and took the
oath of effice and A. D Elam took his hat and
| left, feeling no doubt very much like the un-
fortunate Billy Patterson after he had been
struck by an unfriendly hand. This busi-
ness was done neatly and expeditiously and
without any Of the usual delays of legisla-
ton.
The same rascally game has heretofore
been successfully played in other Southern
States, whose Legislatures have been literally
packed with creatures who had been repu-
republic, where the voice Of the people is
| cmnipotent. In Radical slang, it is 1.-the
freest and best government in the world"
What an insult and farce! General Rey-
nolds has exercised more absolute and impe-
rial power in Texas than is entrusted to any
potentate in Europe. He can make and un-
make Legislatures at his own ungoverned
will, placing the civil in subordination to
the military power, thus reversing one of
the fundamental principles of the govern
inert. While this is being done by subor-
/ dinate, his superior sits in the Presidential
chair and applauds the lawless act. The
verdict of the civilized world has gibbeted
Nero on the pillory of public infamy for
having fiGded while Rome was burning.

Reconstruction in Texas.

The villainies Of Radical reconstruction
are difficult to comprehend, unless the shift
ing scenes Of the disgracefuI drama ere care
fully studied. Georgia has passed through
the bery ordeal Of reconstruction no less than
three times. and yet, for all the practical
purposes of a State, she still occupies the
position of conquered province. She may
be said to be political shuttlecock, tossed
to and fro in the wild ard reckless game of
Congressional battledore. Two sets of u. S.
Senators, both claiming to have been legally
elected, arc now knocking at the door of the
Senate for admission. The two who were
elected last summer, Hill and Miller, are
gentlemen Of character and ability, and are
to the manor born, while one of the last
batch is under IN indictment for the crime
Of perjury. and is openly charged by the
State Treasurer with being an incorrigible
thief. But of such stuff are Radical Sena-
tors from the Southern States now made.
Take the case Of Texas. That State, on
the 30th of last November, adopted copsti-
tuition and elected State officers, as well as
members Of the Legislature. That BODY met
at Austin, the capital of the State, in Janu-
airy last. General Reynolds. the yiceroy or
military commander Of the Fifth District, Of
which Texas forms part sent the following
brief but eloquent communication TO the
Legislature, soon after it had assembled:

stevens and his Statue.

A short time since a bill was fftred in
the House of Representatives of this State,
providing for the erection, at the public ex-
pense. of bronze statue of Thaddeus Ste
Vens. The bill was referred TO a committee
aud on last Friday it was reported. as it
ought to have been, with negative recon-
n.snddtioH. If the Radical admirers of Thad.
Stevens in this, not the State of his birth
but of his adoption, see proper, as an evil
dence Of their high appreciation Of his char
acter, to erect bronze statue Zone made of
brass would be more appropriately to perpet-
uate his memory, no one will iuterpose an
objection. But we solemniy protest. in the
name Of the taxpayers Of the Commonwealth,
against the right Of Radical Legislature to
appropriate the peoples money for any such
political purpose. If this thing were done,
the next movement would probably be the
erection Of q statue in honor Of that sainted
Radical, old John Brown, OF Ossawatamie,
who was a horse thief in Kansas and red
handed murderer at Earper's Ferry.
How out of all character is this proposed
statue to Stevens. rs well as a similar tes-
timonial t. Grant. for when bill has been
presented in Congress, when it is remember
cd that Washington's monument, in the
city that bears his honored name, remains
upfnished-a deep humiliation and burn
ing disgrace to his countrymen. In this de-
generate age. he seems to be almost forgot
ten, while such statesmen as Stevens and
such heroes as Grant eclipse the bright lustre
Of his name. If George Washington had
been an Englishman. as he was an Ameri-
can, and if he had done half as much for
the mother country as he did for her revolt
ed colonies. his ashes would net have lain in
the tomb, for almost three quarters Of a
century without a fitting and appropriate
monument having been erected in his honor,
to make posterity reverence his great deeds
and to cherish his unsullicd fame But it
must be borne in mind that we live, not in
heroic times, but in an age of bronze

A DILL has been introduced into the Sen
ate Of the United States to repeal the odious
test, OF as it is more Familiarity called, the
iron clad oath, which was enacted in 1862.
It is high time that this relic of barbarism
should be erased from the statute bo ok based
AS it originally was on tie detestabe doc
trine. "once rebel always rebel" At
short Intervals bills have passed through
both branches of Congress, removing from
scores of prominent Southern men what are
termed their political disabilities. The
law ought to be made general and not be
confined to special cases. mas smuch as the
Southern people were all in the same boat.
As it is the Radical boast, that universal
suffrage is about to prevail. let universal
amnesty come with it. We will then have
the bane as we'll as The antidote, so far at
least as the Southern States are concerned
When this bill shall become a law. as it un
doubtedly will, it will sound the death kneli
Of the carpet-bagger.
