GEN. MARMADUKE.
From the Herman Volksblalt.1

From the Herman Volksblatt.l
There is no county in Missouri, al
most entirely settled by Germans,
whose inhabitants had better oppor-
tunity to get acquainted with General,
or rather the man Marmaduke, than
Gasconade county and its county seat,
Hermann. When Marmaduke march
cd on Jefferson City through Franklin
and Gasconade counties, in 1864, there
were hardly any ablc-bodicd citizens OF
Hermann at home, most of them being
i'll the militia or home guard. Never
thcless, some hotspurs got hold of d
cannon, and with more brrvcry than
common sense, opened fire on the ap-
proaching suuthcrmcrs. 1t was in vain
and Marmaduke's troops occupied tho
town on the night of October Sd. Who
would have wondered if Marmauuke's
army, intlaincd by this scnseless resist
ance, had ransacked the town? Bu
Marmadulle, on the contrary, respect
ed this proof of patriotism, and did ho
make the people of Hermann feel tho
hand of the cOnqucrOr. He protected
the property and the lives of the inhab
itants of Hermann against every and
any trlnsgression on the part of the
soldiers, and this the people of Her
mann never have forgotten.
lie may not be great statesman
but we, the people of Hermann, know
him to be man Of sound Judgment
strong will, and strict honesty, anC
think these qualities to be sutlicien
guaranty that Mr.. Marmakukc's ad-
ministration will be a good one.

JUDGE WAGNER.
Branded as n Liar by Governor
Crirtcnden.

In his speech at Brunswick on
Wednesday evening, the oath inst.
Gov. Crittenden made reply to the
animadversions of Judge Wagner,
chairman of the late republican con-
vention, in the following emphatic Ian
guage:
''It has been the policy have laid
down and pursued in lite not to un-
necessarily abuse anyone, and have
never broken that rule except when
compelled to do SO in self f-defcnce. At
tho meeting of the recent state conven-
ton at Jefferson City, David Wagner,
all ex-judge of the supreme court of
this state and candidate for renomi-
nation to the same office, was made
chairman of that convention. In
speech delivered OIL takiug his seat, he
took occasion to make some severe
charges against the state government,
and especially against the executive
department, which, I hold, has not
been supported, and cannot be sup
ported, by particle of proof. l have
not been able up to this time to get or
see copy IN haec Ver6a of that speech,
and have only seen a synopsis of it
published in the various political Jour-
mails of the day. He declared, SO have
been advised, in that speech, that had
cOnfederated and combined with assas-
sins. lie declared that the criminal
laws of the state arc not, and have not
been administered with honesty and
vigor; also, that criminals were par
doned out of prison by tho executive
on account of their political affiliations.
oh f,,, Ia
ing, in fact, three separate and distinct
charges of the gravest character, which,
If true, should condemn the dominant
party i'll this state as being unworthy
of the confidence of the people, and
should condemn me, as the executive,
as being unfit for the high position l
now occupy. If these charges are not
sustained-and hold they are not sus-
ceptible of being sustained by any
character of proof that would satisfy
even bitter partisan, unless it be such
fls nJHaiaial leais eapac{ty, ftS has not been able
to look beyond his partisan views. AS
for the charge against myself for hav-
ing pardoned criminals on account Of
their political affiliations, l pronounce
Judge David Wagner, the president of
the late republican convention and can
didate for the supreme judgeship OF
this state, as a base and Infamous liar
and calumniator loud cheeringl and
desire to stamp this condemnation upon
his forehead as the Scarlet Letter was
borne by Hester Prime OH her bosom
I further desire that it shall go forth to
the people of this state, to be read by
every man, woman and child OF every
political hue and bias. AS the repre-
sentative of the republican party for
that Office he must either prove what
he has said, or must go forth during
the balance of his life bearing the
brand as deep on his forehead as that
on the forehead of Cain himself. Loud
cheering, now leave Judge David
Wagner unnoticed during the balance
of this campaign, to be dealt with by
the people as they i'll their wisdom
shall deem best"

ADDRESS OF THE NATIONAL DEM
OCRATIO COMMITTEE.

HEADQUARTERS NATIONAL DEM-
oCRATIC COMMITTEE, III WEST
2lrH ST., New YORK,
Sept. 22d, 1854.
TO TIE PEOPLE OF TIE UNITED STATES:
The National Democratic .party of
the United States has pledged itself to
purify the Administration of public
affairs from corruption; to manage the
government with economy; to enforce
the execution OF the laws and to re-
ducc the taxation to the lowest limit
consistent with just protection to
American labor and capital, and with
the preservation Of the faith which the
nation has pledged to its creditors and
pensioners.
The open record Of the man whom
it has named as its candidate for the
presidency, has been accepted by
thousands OF independent republicans,
in ever state, as an absolute guarantee
that, if he is elected, all these pledges
will be exactly fulfilled, and that, un-
der his administration, good govern
mcnt will be assured.
To secure these results all good cit
liens must unite in defeating the re-
publican candidate for president His
history and political methods make it
certain that his administration would
be stained by gross abuses, by Official
misconduct and wanton expenditure
of the public money, and would be
marked by an increase of taxation
which would blight the honest indus
try OF our people.
Against us, and against those honor
able republicans who, for the sake of
good government, have made common
cause with us, notable comb nations
have been made.
These are chiefly made up of four
classes.

by choice or compulsion, are now giving

To scale the height and set me free,
