From gentleman who has spent ten
days in this district We obtain most en-

wealth OF some OF the newly discovered
mines. Among the most noted of the
mines is the WOolsey, located by Wm.
Woolsey, and recorded as the San IRAN
cisco. The ledge is stripped fifty feet,
showing from FIVE to ten feet solid ore Of
a very high grade. 1t has been prospect
ed to the depth Of twenty feet. Fire men
are working on the claim, four sinking
and one stripping the vein. Cur inform
ant saw three shots pat Of, each one
throwing out solid block Of good $500
milling ore, the pieces weighing $50 to
500 pounds. The mine is regarded as a
regular wonder in the district. r.-.a.,

land then in possession of his enemies He
left Richmond in disguise, and Travelled ON
muleback, alone, for Texas. Dick Taylor had
also surrendered, and all the ferries and cross
ines were in the hands of the Federal forces.
Wipfall could pursue no other course but to
risk himself to be put across the Mississippi by
A detachment of Union soldiers. He was
well disguised. Observing that no allusion
was made to himself, and wishing to know, If
possible, how the wind blew, he began gen.
eral TRADE against the leading Confederate,
winding up by inquiring what would be done
with that scamp Wigfall if they should catch
him. The soldiers replied, they supposed
they would hang him. Eyes, they would do

facture of iron. well as for domestic uses --7

Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1872-08-08
North Carolina Election.

The result of the election held in North
Carolina last Thursday remains in doubt.
The first news gave the Democrats great
encouragement. They were confident of
complete victory with 10000 majorit,
for Merrimon, their candidate for Cover
nor, an overwhelming majority in the
Legislature, and seven out of the eight
Congresmen. They burnt considerable
powder, and drank an immense quantity
of whisky on the strength of it. But a
change has come-the negroes have voted
and they voted the Republican ticket.
The Democrats have elected a majority
of members of the Legislature; but Cald-
we'll, Republican, is reported elected Gov
erslor, by about 1,500 majority, and the
Republicans have four Congressman.
The vote of the State has no tall beer
heard from, and official returns may
change the result; but sufficient is known
to dampen the spirits of the Democrats.
North Carolina is safe for Grant anc
Wilson.

Morton at South Bend.

Gov. Morton addressed a large audi
ence at South Bend, last Saturday. The
meeting was presided over By Vice Presi-
dent Colfax. The Governor made a
strong speech was listened to by large
number of people from. the country and
neighboring towns.
Mr.. Colfax being called for, after Gov.
Morton had concluded, answered in such
unmistakable language as will put to rest
, the base SANDER upon his name, that he
is capable of deserving his party and unit
ing with It's enemies.
In closing his speech he said:
When our political enemies are COM
PEELED to indorse our principles, we GER
tainly should not think of dissolving the
organization that achieved their triumph
| When they abandon their warfare on re
publican measures, it is time for us to
ABANDON our banners, and bury these bit
ter memories Of the H1st. Bat let not the
work OF tAo past be endangered by dis
bandment OF the workmen. Let US Votc

Hon. Jasper Packard

Hon. Jasper Packard, Republican can
didate for Congress, addressed the people
in this place, last Saturday, late in the
afternoon, after a large number of per-
sons had left the ground. Mr.. Packard
was expected to speak at two O'Clock,
bat at four o'clock he had not arrived in
town-but came soon after. We had not
heard Mr. Packard address the people for
several years, and hardly knew what to ex-
pect of him. as persistent efforts had been,
made by the Democrats to make the peo-
pie believe that Gen Packard was with
out education, lacking in good sense, and
in every way very inferior man; but
his speech last Saturday, has SO com
pletely upset that argument that they
will now take some other tack
His defense OF the administration OF
President Grant, from the reckless and
false charges made by Mr.. Hendricks the
day previous, proved him to be an able
debater, and to be we'll acquainted with
his subject
The remark was made by many IN oul
hearing I'VE can see no reason why any
Republican should take exceptions to
Gen. Packard as republican candidate fol
Congress" No man has left a better i'm
preston upon the minds of the people
tlan Gen. Packard, AMI from indications
here ne will receive larger and more
hearty support in Marshall county, than
he has ever done; and we hear the same
favorable report from Fulton county.
Republicans should waste no time in
bandying epithets with personal enemie:
mics of the General. He has no word
of reproach for them. Republican:
should stand shoulder to shoulder in
support of principles leaving other mat
tiers out of the question.
