A NEWSPAPER

TLIE Journal seems to delight in slandering respectable neighborhoods, where the larger portion of tho inhabitants are Democrats. In'speaking of a revival of roligion at Jacksonville, in Fountain county, it says: "Tna RtviYjtL

SENATOR DRAKE talks about of degradation in the senate." "day" must be one of those scriptural

days which are the equivalent of forever. So long aa radicalism controls the senate, every day is liable to be one of degradation. Let Drake tell the whole truth next time, or alse stop quacking.

TlIE Journal is as mum as an oyster on Brother Godfrey's prayer, iu which lie denounced the Radical Administration as "thieves, murderers, and debauchees." While it finds time to traduce respectable Democratic neighborhoods, it fails to notice the infamies of its own party leaders so graphically and truthfully depicted by Brother Godfroy.

THE signs of a healthy reaction, iu

tbe political sentiments of tho voters of Montgomery county, is becoming apparent to the most careless observer. Many, who a year ago voted the Radical ticket, now swear that they nre tired of the griovous taxation and the iniquities of tho party in power, and long for a change. Tho County may be safely set down for a largely iniereaaed Democratic majority nest fall.

IT is reported that the soldiers who enlisted in 1861, and were paid in

greenback*:, are combining to demand that they be now paid tho amount of the diflorcnce between gold and green'backs at tho time they wore mustered -out.

The government would only carry went the bargain and bo honest in allowing the claim. Thoso same soldiers are now heavily tixed to pay bondholders coin who were prom ised currency. Of how much more orth is the Shylock money lender than the soldier who risked his life?

JACKVILLB.—From a

friend who carao from Jackvillo early this week, we learn that there has boon a decided improvement in the moral atmosphero sinee tho inauguration of the religious rc- I vival which is still in progress there. Thirteen years ago, a minister of the Gospel was fired at through a window of the Louse in which he was preaching. Sinco that time no minister had (lircd to preach I at JackTille until the coming of Brant and Bannon."

It is needless'to say that the above

is malicious slander, prompted by an intense hatred to the Democracy ef that section.

The Tariff Vote.

On the vote to reject the anti-high-uriff robbery resolutions of Mr. MAR6I1ALL, of Illinois, in the House of Representatives, eighty-nine Republicans voted aye. Not a single Democrat, East or.West, voted with them. The voto against rejection, and in favor of the adoption, consisted of fiftyon* Democrats and ticenty-six Western Republicans, in all seventy-seven. Thus it will be seen that the Democratic party is a unit against the manifest robbery of the people, while more than three-fonrths of the Republican Congressmen sustain it. It is a fair question bow many of them have been bought up by the iron-moogers of Pennsylvania and the New England cotton mill owners.

The Spring Elections In .»w York. The township meetings io Now York are now being held. They are of fir more importance in that State thau in Ohio, aa the Town Supervisors constitute tho County Commissioners and transact all the county business. They are therefore contested with a great deal of sharpness by both partie*. Delaware County, which has been atrongly Republican, has been redeemed. Ditto Herkimer County which, for the first time in tea years, aa Delaware in twenty years, elects majorities of Democratic Supervisors. In Mootgomery aod Broome counties thara are also gain*. This ij a good beginning for 1870.

The Military Bills.

The efforts being made by certain radical politicians to get up a repudiation for economy under the pretence of r-duciog the army, area villainous sham. The art with reference to retired officers is that "no retired officer of the army shall hereafter be assigned to duty of any kind, or be entitled to receive more than the pay and allowances provided by law for retired officers of his grade, and all such as signmeots heretofore mnde hhnll ter-

of congress, who can never do too much for the negro who permit the disabled veterans of the rank and file to subsist by grinding hand-organs, and who hold economy in pence and lavishtiess in pounds to be such service as the country deroaoda and as their oaths and consciences direct. This fraud upon the men who remain to the country from the war of 1812, the Seminole campaigns, and the bloody conflict with Mexico, must be made to feci the effects of this shameless radical pretext of economy. The enormous subsidies to fictitious railways are not disturbed, the vast and useless expenditures involved in the present method of collecting the revenue are not done away with the truths uttered by Dawes arc met with denial, or passed by with iudiffcrence bondholders are paid their pound of flesh, everywhere in legislation Istvishuess runs riot and the only thing which congress does is to kick .« few daughters aud widows of soldiers from some of the clerical departments.JJdischarge a few mechanics from the navy-yards in the middle of winter, and cut down the pittances of the veteraus who, from wounds or age, have been retired from active service. To keep up the millions and keep down the pennies is what the loyal congress is doing, while its press and orators jubilantly announce that the work of economy, reform, ami retrenchment i3 in full and satisfactory progress.

Logan's bill is another economical liumbug. Its advocates say that there are some 600 officers who are under pay, and who are dotaehed from tho army. Here they stop, and leave the impression that these GOO officer.- are doiug nothing, aud that to cut them off will be a master stroke in savins. They do not inform the country that of these 600 or more detached officers, all save about 150 are doing duty in surveys, Indian departments, military

The Xew Tariff.

If there is any department of expenditure in which the present high prices need abatement through reduced, taxation, it is in the cost of build iug and repairing houses. Shelter, like food end clothing, is a primarynecessity to ail. And the taxes impoged on building materials enter directly iuto the cost of rent, and thus effect the expenses of every family. We have already sceu how the proposed tariff revision enchance« the price of all the metal fabrics that enter into builders' hardware, whether they are of iron, steel, zinc, brass or lead. Let us now look at another great class of articles which are in large and incesant use in the construction and repair of buildings, namely, paints aud oils.

To paint or repaint an ordinary house, in city or country, adopted to a family of six persons, costs, at prcsent prices, from S150 to 8300, according to the size of the dwollingand the quality of the material? used. The cost of paints and oils is the di

rcct result of the high tariff under which we have lived so long. It is one leading cause of the high price of

acadcmic*, and iu scores of other af- rents and of real estate, and helps to draiu the pockets of all the communi-

fairs which they could as well perforin as, or better than, anybody else. The real motive underlying Logan's biil is not economy, but a desire to make positions for loyalists who are out of office, and famine stricken for want of government pap.

From the successful experiments already made, it would appear that for illumination of the whole body it is only necessary that the lights be sufficiently vivid and the lei.ses sufficiently powerful. If the whole internal machinery of the human system could thus be brought directly under the inspection of medical practitioners the advantage to science and humanity would be incalcuable. Every person will remember the semi-transpar-ent appearance of the hand when held between the eye and a powerful light, and if the vision be aided by artificial appliances, there is no difficulty in immagining an immenseincrcase of our clairvoyant powers.

This is said to be a progressive age and we were most happy to ses it verified on the 3d inst., in the marriage, at tho residence of Mr. William Kuowle and the well known and popular speaker Mrs. Frank Read. It was expected that sister Horton would officiate upon the all important occasion, but she was prevented by illness. Under the circumstances, it was decided that the next best thing for them to do would be for the parties to marry themselves. Accordingly, after a few moments' consultation, the follow

Swrct History of the John Brown

oil Harper's Ferry.

Brown and five of his men arrived iu Detroit with fourteen slaves from Missouri, in the rummer of 185S. One of the slaves gave birth to a male child on the way. The boy was named John Brown, and now lives iu Windsor. By a] strange coincidence Fred. Douglass happened to be lecturing in this city the samejevening that Brown arrived. After the lecture the leaders of the insurrectionary movement got together in the house of William Webb, on Congress street, near Antoinc street, and arranged the plan for the raid on the South, which brake out prematurely at Harper's Ferry. Mr. Webb wa» for years man

Douglass objected to Brown's plan, which originally was to make raids on siogle plantations until he h?d collected a force of about 1,000 slaves aud then swoop down on the large towns and cities, collecting'forces and material as he progressed. Brown grew wrathy, and asked Douglass if ho was a coward, and referred to his sucof the replied

"PROGRESS" is the order of tbe day with REECHER nud his church, the last

step being to do away with the good old orthodox idea of CALVIN, that eternal punishment must pursue the lost.

TBE Indianapolis Sentinel states

that the total amount of the dog tax on the duplicates of the various counties in the State, for the year 1869, foots up the handsome sum of S169, 980. As a general thing, only about one-fourth of the dogs have owners when the assessor is on his rounds. So, from the figures, our dog population must be pretty numerous.

WE have never yet known a good, wholesome, healthy woman to clamor for political lights. As a rule, those who have the ambition to enjoy such privilages are hip paded, bosom stuffed peak-nosed, thin liped, cracked-brain-ed, barren, babyless women—female monstrosities and victims of nervous debility,
