OUR city marshal, Mr.. Webb, was the
agent to work up Akron for the G. A.
Band, spending day or two there for
that purpose. 1t was poorly done, ac-
cording to all accounts, and did not pan
out, except out of pocket. By the way,
we suppose his pay went on as Canton's
city marshal Some years ago, when
George 0ld6eld was marshal, his pay
was stopped while away attending the
funeral of his father-in-law And, as
city marshal of Canton, Mr.. 0ldfeld at
tended to Canton-was not thief hunting
for other parties all over the country (;
nor was he running about working up
concerts He considered, as he was on
regular pay he owed the city regular SER
vice, for George Oldfield is a consCien.
tious man, and ever faithful to duty.

A FUNNY scene was witnessed few
days ago in the federal court at DanviIle,
Va, the Judge of which (Rives), it will
be remembered, recently instructed his
Grand Jury to indiCt number of coun-
ty judges for putting colored men ON the
juries, A Colored man named Gravely
was indicted for selling liquor without
license. When he saw the jury before
which he was to be tried about equally
diYided between white and black, he ex-
claimed, "For Gods sake don't let them
niggers try me-" Efforts were made to
pacify him, but he insisted that "niggers
would hang a man just to see him kick"

Of executing in New York city, the Uni

A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR STATE
TREASURER,

Hon. H. Il. Gregg, of this place, has
been named as candidate for State
Treasurer on the Democratic ticket at
the fall election. 1t is rare that a man of
such decided fitness is available for pub
lie Office. Mr., Gregg was member of
the Constitutional convention which
framed our present constitution, and is
not unknown to the people of the State.
His honor, integrity and general fitness
would make him a formidable candidate.

THE AKRON ARGUS ON @. A. BAND.

THE AKRON ARGUS ON g. A. BAND
The renarks'of the Canton Repository
concerning the recent dismal failure OF
the Canton Grand Army Band, in their
musical venture in this city, are decided
ly out of place. We know that from the
first there was no inducement held out
to the Band that it could make fortune
here. Those who knew best, predicted
before the final arrangements were made,
that the Band had better stay at home.
Akron is flooded with music Of her own,
and the pockets of her citizens are con-
tinualy being tapped to sustain her mu.
siCal organizations, They are sustained
somehow or other, but we know posi-
lively that three-fourths Of those who 90
down into their pockets, when asked to
render assistance, are "bored to death"
when compelled to listen to concert or
any other musical entertainment Of an
aesthetic nature. This statement may
not create any reputation for Akron as q
second Paris of America, but it is fact
nevertheless. We suppose that the
avant couriers of the G. A. Band consult
ed with few of the old Cantonians here
and possibly few of the small circle Of
beings who believe that Akron's musical
culture is equal to that of Boston. But
they certainly did not run across any
body who would bluntly tell them the
truth. If they had done so, they GER
tainly never would have come to Akron
enthusiastically expecting that a bonan-
"a would be deposited in their box Office.
AS to the Repository's personalities we
can say very little, but that refers to our
personal knowledge So far as it extends
and we have made wide inquiry, Prof.
Marble is not in the slightest degree re-
sponsible for the failure of the Band to
receive large audience. And we should
not say this if we were not confident Of
its truth. The Band was not properly
announced to the public; its concert was
not advertised to any great extent, and
its managers neglected to secure the in
terest of those who could have aided it.
This, and the other fact we have men
toned, is the whole secret of their fail
ure. The spleen of the Repository is the
result of a sour stomach. When the
boys have partially gotten over their
chagrin they will aCCeptour amendments.

ALLIANCE REVIEW ON CLARK's
VAPORINGS.

J.. Clark of Canton, challenges some
body, and the Repository seconds him, to
argue the merits of the Worley compro.
mise bill. We would be glad if some in
duCement could be offered the gentleman
to begin his argument at once. We have
been following his vaporings for several
weeks, but up to this date he has made
no attempt at argument. Will somebody
knock a Chip off his shoulder and set
him agoing2 A little argument thrown
in now and then by way of spice, would
vary somewhat the monotony of the
Repository articles. Lest nobody should
accept his challenge, we will make Mr..
Clark and his "CoparCeners" a PROPOSE
ton, or, as it were, "cast our glove" &c.
1st. Let Mr.. Clark furnish proof that
the bond is noW financially responsible
for the amount of the deficit. ION this
point we decline to accept general sup.
positions
I'd. Let him prove that in the 7ent of
a lawsuit the county Uill get a judgment
for the full amount.
Sd. Let him prove that after judgment
is obtained against the bondsmen, they
vW then be financially responsible for the
amount of the deficit.
4th. AS an earnest of his sincerity and
faith in these propositions, that he give
the commissioners an indemnifying bond
to pay the costs of the suit, and the
amount of the deficit the commi, sion
ers may fail to collect after following his
advice AS Mr.. Clark has so much solc.
itude for the taxpayers he surely will not
object to giving them some security for
the money he wishes them to expend
according to his dictation.

This controversy over the Fessler def
icit has been productive of good. Though
commenced on the part of Clark and
Tom Saxton (by proxy with a view of
assailing the editor of the DEMOCRAT, and
no one else, it has had the effect of pre-
senting the matter quite fully to the tax
payers of Stark county, and made it pop
ular with the people generally. The AL
lance Review, MassillOn Independent and
Fulton Signal have helped in this good
work. These papers condemn the course
of the Repository in severe terms, and
confirm our statement that Z. W. Sdrton
favo, ed releasing the bail entirely.
1t will be seen, then that we were for
ced into this controversy by the venom.
ous, personal attacks cf Clark through
the Repository, over the signature of "a
Taxpayer"
He has been forced from his conceal
ment, and the weight of his bosh can
be more properly considered. His card
number two, challenging discussion with
the other gentlemen who took an active
interest in the Worley bill, as we said
last week, names none of them; but the
fellow shows his presumption and con-
Ceit, by fixing the terms and the topics.
1t is generally supposed that the chal-
lenged party have some rights as to the
points to be discussed, and the terms and
rules of discussion. Clark, it seems, has
no scruples, but wants to have it all his
own way.
What he calls his established facts"
as to the Fessler deficit and the bonds
men, also indicate the presumption and
cheek of this informer for Dun & Co.'S
piratical concern. Modesty is not one of
the qualities adorning this lawyer, emil
nent in his own conceit, who has studied
his profession IA or Is hours day for
some fourteen years He no doubt inn
agines himself heavy limb of the law,
though the public are not aware of it;
individuals, however, have realized his
heavy hand ere now, when he got helPs
legal grab upon them
We can excuse his foolish vaunting at
the close and throughout his last article,
for we perceive he was smartlng under
our exposure of his Dun & Co.'S piratical
connection, to which he devotes the
most of his card, acknowledging all and
more than We charged. He admits that
for years he has been their informer, a
scavenger to serve these internal ghous.
He seems, too, to have enjoyed his work
He claims he furnished true reports !"
Supposing it were so, which it is not,
what kind of business ls this for man
claiming to be a lawyer? And he actu.
ally now boasts of his position as scav-
enger and pimp informer
He ought to get "ready TO run away"
from such mean business. Bearing him
no malice, we do not want him to "fear"
us, but to fear doing wrong and acting
mean. The only "call" we would make
upon him is, to become friend of truth
and goodness, and a foe of evil.

REPUBLICAN papers profess great joy
over rule of the Senate of 1854, that
no changes can be made in the subord;-
nate offices of the Senate, without the
approval of the Vice President, meaning
de factO Wheeler. We guess the power
that made the rule can unmake it. No
such regulation stood in the way of the
Republicans ousting all the Democrats
they could lay hands on, and their
pleading it to save their own adherents,
shows love for the loaves and fishes
that has obliterated pretty much all self
respect. The Offices belong to the saints
and we are the saints, is the Republican
chorus, whenever any of their barnacles
are dislodged from place and patronage.
1t is hard for the radicals to realize that
their day has gone by, but they must
come to it.
