A Thought for Union Soldiers.

On the 21st day of January, 1861,
a resolution was offered in the House
of Representatives of the State of
Ohio, of which the following is a por-
ton:
"While we most especially con-
denim the spirit Of ,s,slljfcation and
aggression at the North, qohich seem
t. be driving the Southern States into
secession and revolution, as destresct-
ive Of oar peace and harmony, yet
it is the opinion of this body that
the employment of military force by
the Federal Government to coerce
the submission of seeding States
will inevitably plunge the country
into civil war, and entirely extinguish
all hope of peaceful settlement of
the fearful issues now pending be-
fore the country, &C."
For the resolution from which
this is an extract, Henry L. Dickey
voted.
Can there be doubt that, believ-
ing as he does that the spirit of
notification and aggression at the
North" drove the Southern States
into secession and revolution he will,
if elected to the Congress of the
United States, give his influence and
votes to repair the wrongs inflicted
by the North, by pensioning the
rebel soldiers, paying the South for
their slaves and property lost by
"the aggressions of the North" and
by iquidating the debt contracted
by the South in its war against "co-
ercion."

10 PER CENT.
First Mortgage Loans on I'm
proved Iowa Farms.

1 can place a limited amount of money
in this class of loans, at the above rate of
interest, payable annually, without any ex-
pense to the investor. Ten per cent. is le-
gal in Iowa, and the fear of ESUry being
pleaded is not known. The farms are well
improved, highly productive and increas-
ing in value-furnishing good basis for
security. Not more than one-third of the
cash value of the property is loaned. The
security offered has my personal inspec-
ton. Full abstracts of title are furnished
lender previous to making the loan.
For profit and safety combined, thesein-
vestments stand among the best. Core
spondence solicited, and all desired infor-
nation will be cheerfully given

sc. ID. M on Narrow Gauge
Railroads.

E. d. Mansfield, Esq, the we'll
known statistical writer, has an arti-
Elm the Cincinnati Gazette of Friday
last on the subject of Marrow Gauge
Railroads and their Future" He
argues strongly in their favor, on
the grounds of cheapness of con-
struction, and capacity to accommo-
dae the local business of the coun-
try as well as the more costly roads
of the standard gauge. He says;
'It is quite obvious that, in local
tiles where they will have little COM
petition, this class of roads may be
constructed very proftably. If a
Narrow-gauge costs but $4,000 per
mile, the stockholders need lose lit
tie by the brokers, and they can ope-
rate so much cheaper that they can
make a profit. If this be the fact,
the future of railroads will be as i'm
portant as the past has been. They
will spring up in all parts of the
country where, turnpikes and com
mon roads are leading to main lines
of the old railroads. They will not
compete with the great lines, but
they will bring business to them.
This branch of business is likely to
be a lively one. There are more lines
of railroad constructing in Ohio, than
there ever was in one year, and that,
too, when Ohio has already 5000
miles of railroad"
Speaking of localities where mar
row gauge roads will be profitable,
he thinks road along the Ohio river
above Cincinnati would pay well, and
adds:
$50, also, a Narrow-gauge from
Hillsboro to Maysville would be a
good one; another from Hillsboro to
jackson would be very useful and
profitable to Hllsboro. 1t would
probably make that town manufac-
turing place. 1t only wants the raw
material. In other respects it is one
of the best situated of our interior
towns"

WHO'S Scared.

The Hillsboro Gazette, speaking
of this paper and its articles regard
ing Mr.. Dickey, says:
"Another week of this parrot chat
ter, and we will open these columns
upon Mr.. Brown"
All, Indeed Will open up. But
''we suspect, as do many others"
that you will not dare to "open your
columns upon Mr.. Brown" in time
before the election to give the Repub-
lican press an opportunity to reply,
1t would be quite consistent with
Democratic ideas of reform to send
abroad almost any SANDER just on
the eve of the election, when there
will be no time or opportunity to re-
! fute it.

cover S1,OOO,OOO, principal and inter
est of bonds taken from the depart
ment, and for the amount received
by him from the Confederate States,
and which it is alleged reverted to

interest. Thompson says he noticed
in the newspapers, some days ago,
that Secretary Chandler had made a
charge that he had abstracted those
bonds, but now this charge has been
abandoned, and civil suit instituted
to make him pecuniarily responsible
for the acts of subordinate clerk.

Democratic ECONOMY"

SSthSS ~ q siS 6stShy
"The Democratic House reduced
the yearly expenses of the Govern
ment THIRTY MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS. They had passed.a bill
which would have accomplished a
reduction of expenses to the country
of SIXTY-FOUR MILLIONS, but
the Republican Senate, by strict
party vote, refused to concur, and
the House was hence enabled to
make the reduction of only thirty
millions. Yet when you point a Re-
publican to this fact he simply says,
'tDAMNED Confederate Congress!"-
Hills. Gazette.
Yes, the Democratic House re
duced the army, and we have the Gus
ter massacre. They stopped the ap-
preparations for the public buildings
which were being erected, and the
work has to cease. They cut down
necessary appropriations SO that
large deficiency bills will have to be
passed. These savi,egs will have to
be paid for by increased outlays, and
the Democratic House" know it.
And now they have saved thirty mil
lions, while Democratic leaders are
bringing in by the score, bills to pay
for rebel claims that would take
hundreds Of millions out of the
Treasury, and the Democratic
House" was only restrained from
passing some of them by the fear OF
losing votes in the North. This is
Democratic economy"

Hayes VS.. Tilden.

"In many years ofpolitical life, and
in the different public offices he has
held, Gov. Hayes has never been
known to raise hand or voice against
the crimes and corruptions of his
party. Gov. Tilden, upon his own
affidavit, arrests the leaders of his
party in New York, and prosecutes
them for their crimes until they now
languish in prison or wander out
casts in foreign lands, while their
property is confscated to reimburse
the public for their stealings. Who,
men of Highland County, has given
the better evidence of being a prac-
tical Reformer?" Hills. Gazette.
The leaders of Gov. Hayes party
in Ohio didn't need arresting for
stealing. That's the difference. Be-
sides, Tilden might have been want
ing to avert attention from that mat
ter of his income, when he made that
affidavit about the "leaders of his
party" Hayes didn't have to arrest
"the leaders of his party" in Ohio,
neither did he perjure himself to de-
fraud the Government out of income
tax. Tilden, pushed on by power
behind him which he could not have
withstood if he would, helped to
prosecute "the leaders of his party
for high crimes. At the same time,
unless mis- oaths are lies, his pocket
was full of cash fraudulently kept
from the Government. Hayes paid
his taxes, kept his record clean, and
served his country well.
"Who, men of Highland county,
has given the better evidence of be-
ing a practical Reformer?'
