tU6 UtueT St06 VI I'VE Osoess e~s
Story.
Two weeks ago the JOURNAL copied
from the Marysville Miner commu-
nication from English Excitement,
headed "A Crusl Father" accusing
Mr.. Andrew McMIcken Of severity 70
his daughter. We must now, In JUS
tice give the other side Of the story.
II appeared In the Miner last week.
Here II IL, In substance, but divested
Of some Of It's crudlties and bad gram
mar:
Mr.. McMicken finds In the Knox
Vile JOURNAL the communication re-
ferred to, and says when bis daughter
came TO Mr.. Jordan's he did not In
quire about the meeting, but went
home. He did not fasten the door
against her a. represented, but she
went to her brother-in-law's and
spent the night. In the morning
when he left home he thought she
was still ut Mr. Jordan's; but when
he came home In the afternoon he
was informed where she was, what
had transpired, and that she did not
intend TO come home. He sent her
sister to tell her to come home, and
she sent word back that she did not
intend TO come. Then he went after
her, and she still refused to come. He
did not threaten TO kill her, did not
drag her by the hair, and did not beat
her a. stated. Re did not see the
young man coming TO the rescue, and
if he had seen any one coming, be
would not have run, as represented.
He was never known to run from any
one In his life. He says be does not
mention the cause OF the whipping
because II Is not his place to Islander
his own daughter. He closes with this
notice: "If that coward OF a cores
pendent will come out over bis own
name will teach him to attend Ia
his own business and letothers alone"
His full name II attached TO the letter.
Mr.. McMicken makes what appears
10 be manly defense. and IL his state
ments are true, rs we hope. he should
force the disclosure Of the orrespond-
snts name or hold the Miner respon-
sibIe. No newspaper has any right
to publish such injurious stories and
withhold its authority.

The only foundation there Ia for
Motifs chronic growing Is In the fact
that the Dies Molnes river IL impass-
able between here and Pella about
one-half the time, and the carrier can
not possibly get the mail across.
Mott isa little jealous, too, and In his
madness makes grave and baseless
charges against the Post Masters here
and In his own town. The Post Mas-
tors cannot know whether the river
can be crossed or not, and when they
deliver the mail to the carrier they
have done their duty. Mr.. Crnddick
delivers the pe!la mail To the train
every day, and has nothing more Ia
do with 1t. The tom-tit who utters
his feeble twitler through the Demo
crdt finds immunity In his llttleness.
Let him twltter.

people, as a malicious liar and
coward, and when we talked of cram
ming the statement down his infamous
throat he skunk away like the miser-
able, dirty dog that he is. Now, how
ever, when we are hundreds of miles
away, the m~endacious liar mnsters
courage TO say things of us that he
would not repeat in our presence for
the Comstock lead. He is a loath
some thing, concerning whom reports
of the most beastly practices have
been current for years. More need not
be said of so degraded a cur.
The attempt of this gang of political
cut threats to read us III of the Demo
cratic party will not avail. We have
jeen in the harness too long, have done
too much hard work for the party and
spent too many dollars in disseminat-
ing its principles and promoting its
success to be driven from our alle-
glance by either personal or political
enemies. 1t is true that we have never
won military distinction and title by
cooking a gun on the flag OF our
country; that we are of those who re.
joice that the war is over, that secession
is dead beyond resurrection, and that
slavery no longer exists in the land;
yet we are vain enough to believe that
we average up pretty well as an
orthodox Democrat. We shall at all
events stay with and advocate these
principles ''within the party" SO long
as we have anything to say or do with
politics here or elsewhere.

A VOICE FROM THE SOUTH.

After listening to the stump speakers
aud reading the organs which declare
That the South is ready for another re-
b~ellion, and appeals to sectional pre-
JUDGES ard war animosities, turn to

600. 900 of people whom | represent,
and the whole<South as we'll, | de-
nounce the utterance as an inhuman
SANDER and a datnnable falsehood
against a brave, AND, God knows, a
long suffering people. Want war!
want bloodslied! SlrS, we are poor
broken in fortunes and sick at heart.
Had you stood AS | have stood, by the
ruined hearthstones, by the wrecks OF
fortune, which are scattered all along
the shore; had you seen, as | have
seen. the wolf bowling at the door OF
many a once happy home widow
hood and ~orphanage starving, and
weeping owe never returning sires and
sons, who fell with your honored dead
at Gettysburg and Manassas; could
you hear, AS 1 have head. the throb-
bing of the great universal Southern
Discriminating for peace and yearn-
ing for the old love between the States;
could you have seen and felt and beard
all these things, my countrymen, you
would, black or white, Republican or
Democrat, take me hy the hand and
swear hat the arm thus uplifted
against us, and the tongue which ntters
the great libel in our name, should
wither at the socket and become pal
sled forever at the root! / repeat again,
let our ''spears be turned into pruning
hooks and our swords beat into pillow
shares" to remain everlasting memo
rails of returning peace and good will
