Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1878-12-05

The religious papers OF England
are discussing the momentous ques-
ton. "Ought clergymen TO wear
mustaches?" We think. as cold
weather comes On, they should, and
on days of extreme severity they
might add a pair Of trousers and a
thick yest..

At all times confidence and truth
are better preventives OF jealousy
than concealment.
We would gain more il we left our
selves to appear such as we are, than
by attempting to appear what we are

But now, while duty s.earnest voices call,
We will with courage strong and willing
Live for to-day.

The reason why people so seldom
know how to do their duty on great
occasions is that they will not dc

A looking-glass Is kinder to US

pable OF concealing how much the ef-
fort has cost them, and it is this con-
cealment that constitutes their value
There is peace in power; the men who speak
With the ioudest tongues, do least;
And the surest sign of a mind that is weak
Is its want OF power TO rest.

THE REPUBLICAN.
Somehow or Other.

Life has a burden for every mans shoulder.
Some may escape from its trouble and care;
Miss il in youth and twill come when we're older,
And ft rs as close - the garments we wear.
Sorrow comes into our life unlimited,
Robbing our hearts of their treasures of song;
Lovers grow cold and friendships sighted,
Yet somehow or other we worry along.
Everyday toll is an everyday blessing
Though poverty's cottage and crust we may share,
Weak is the back which burdens pressing,
But stoutis the heart that is strengthened by prayer
Somehow or other the pathway grows brighter
just when we mourn there were none to bcfriend;
Hope in the heart makes the burd. n seem lighter,
And somehow or other we get to the end.

The Indianapolis
journal

Has now been published for over Half
Century, and is but just to say that it has
done more to promote general intelligence
and establish healthy moral and political
sentiment in the State than any other in
stitution, either public or private. 1t is
the unanimous verdict of the leading news
paper men throughout the country that,
considering its field, THE JOURNAL
has no superior as newspaper in the
Government. There has been literally
no adverse cifticium upon either its gen.
eral or editorial management in the past
three years, except such as comes from
adverse political or rival business interests.

tinuous from year TO year..

THE POTTER RESOLUTION.
A Revolutionary Movement Full of mis-
chief 10 the COuntry.

A Revolutionary Movement Full of mis-.
chief TO the COuntry.
WASHINGTON, Nav 15-Mr. Hubbell of
Michigan, leading Republican member, says
the Republicans will persist in the effort of
defeat the attempt of the Democrats to reopen
the Presidential question. He was in hopes
the country would speedily take cOgnizance of
the revolutionary character of the proceeding,
and by public meetings and other methods of
expressing its condemnation, would make its
pinion felt on those who were instrumental
IN causing the mischief, and influence them to
desist He thought it pity that this agitation
should occur at this juncture, when the business
interests OF the country were beginning to
revive; The Republicans were not citing for
f Tres Hayes, he said, he knew one hun.
bred Republican members who did not care
how soon Hayes ceased to be President. But
they were solicitous for the welfare of the
country and its business interests, which would
surely be derabged if the Democratic program-
me is carried out. Mr.. Hubbell believed that
the master spirits of the movement had in con-
temptation the ultimate ejectment of Hayes
from the White House.
