THURSDAY, 3WAY23, 1867.

The Democrat's Party. You can generally judgo very correctly of th& character, feelings and mental advancement of men and parlies by tho character of their literature. Men of moral principle and high endowment of mind, do riot relish low blackguardism and malicious scurrility, but generally select papers and books freo from theso indications of the brainless buffoon and rabble-amus-ing clown, both in tho writer and reader. But a man who prints a newspaper must adapt it to tho tasto of his subscribers, and we ought not to criticise too harshly, tho writers for some of our democratic papers, who continually indulge in the lowest and most scurrilous attacks on the character of honorable men/:'If a bogus democrat, of rebel* instincts, for instance, wei-e to publish a decent paper, ho would bo in danger of losing tho patronage of the Copperhead party. It is, no doubt, very amusing to tho readers of such papers to see TIemy Wilson, tho-able Senator from Massachusetts, and Hon. W. D. Ivellcy, Congressman from Philadelphia, denounced as vagabonds," &c., &c. A vagabond means a person who wanders about from place to place without any home or any honest means of a livelihood, and the men who make their living by tho species of low, lying blackguardism we have referred to, como much nearer being vagabonds," than those whoso charactor thoy thus assail. But it matters not that tho charge of vagabondism is •wholly without foundation, so far as Messrs. Wilson and Kclley aro concerned. It stirs up the low passions of tho readers, makes them feci good for a time, gives them a high opinion of democracy, and a very low opinion of all who aro not democrats and they feel better after taking a dose so well adapted to their vitiated stomachs. Any decent dignified criticism of a public man's conduct and principles would so disgust them that they would stop their papers at once, and democratic journals would bo without subscribers or readers. Their minds aro like a buzzard's digestive apparatus, they won't digest anything that is not rotten and filthy.

"COL. S.

WILSON,

tho energetic and

Indefatigable President of this company, informs us that tho prospects for the construction of ^fche east and west road, are brightening daily. Ho has just returned from a visit along the "west end of the line, where ho found tho people fully aroused to the importance of the subject. They aro taking hold of tho matter with alacrity— transferring and increasing their subscriptions, and working vigorously for tho accomplishment of this important enterprise. Tho Col. addressed tho citizens of Covington and other places, and by a lucid exposition of tho advantages and importance of tho road, incited, the lukewarm to renewed action, and enlisted tho co-operation of many who were heretofore indifferent. Now, that tho ball has been set in motion, under such favorable auspices, we hopo tho citizend of Montgomery county will act with commeabablo spirit, and push on the good work. If wo but uso.proper industry, wo may consider tho road a certainty.

G. A. R.

It is stated in tho Lafayette Courier that preparations aro" making for a magnificent celobration of tho coming Fourth of July by tho Grand Army of the Republic of Northern and Central Indiana, at that city. An encampment will be formed on tho 2d, in truo soldier stylo, and continue -until tho evening of the 4th. Ono thousand tents have been secured by tho committeo having tho matter in charge, together with infantry, cavalry and artillery accoutrements for all who may wish to participate, It is contemplated to form, for tho occasion, at least one battery, one squadron of cavalry and a regiment of infantry. General Milroy will probably bo placed in command, and General Logan or General Calmer is expected to deliver tho orati'oS-

Wo aro glad to witness this movement for calling together tho heroes of the lato war, and donotdoubt that the affair will bo a grand success in tho hands of tho soldiers who havo taken it in charge. ',

The Finality.

Tho Southern friends of reconstruction under the law, derive strength in their discussions from the emphatic assurances of Senator Sherman' and others, as to the determination of Congress to abide by the torms it has proclaimed. Senator Wilson has given encouragement to tho samo view during his pi*esent tour. ILo has declared more than

once,

League

that the lie-

publican party has no desiro to depart from the implied conditions of tho Military Government Act, Speaker Colfax, in his speech at .tho Union

Club, in New York city, last

-week, took

the

same ground. The party

=====

which has made tho laws intend, he said, "to stand by them faithfully and literally, if their terms aro complied with by tho rebel States in good faith and without evasion. They would be branded with dishonor," ho added, "and their fame-tarnished forever if thoy did not."

Badly Afflicted.

Somo of tho copperheads of this county are so terribly afflicted with tho political delirium tremens, that they continually sco all kinds of horrid monsters around with foul designs on their freedom. In their insane dreams, thoy call loudly on the peoplo to ''awako to tho impending danger that imperils their libertieo," and at onco draw the sword, the only instrument that can reach theso monsters! A teacher of the sword exereiso is very urgently demanded by the copperheads in these parts. Who will send them one? Whcro is "Jack tho Giant Killer"—perhaps ho could bo induced to tako a contract in their behalf.

THE

copperheads of this county aro

now fuily convinced that tho Southern plantation negroes are destined to outstrip them in moral and intellectual advancement, and they aro calling loudly and piteously for discriminating laws in their behalf. They aro so enraged at tho thought of becoming inferior to tlioso negroes, that they are talking about putting the poor darkles to tho sword. They aro so conscious of their natural inferiority, they feel that nothing but a flaming sword can preserve them' from negro equality. Wo think their fears aro well grounded, and wo hereby petition'the radical Congress to inaugurate somo measure for their rolief. We know they don't sleep well of nights while tho momentous calamity they contemplate, rests so heavily on their minds.

HENRY

the author, for a neatly bound

volume, entitled Ned Nevins. the News Boy, or Street Life in Boston. Of this interesting volume tho Christian Era says

Kevins' is a most excellent

book. It is the story of a news boy who lived in Boston, and who had all the various vicissitudes of his class, until he met with better fortune, and found a comfortable home. It is such a story as young peoplo should read, for it shows them tho temptations to which the poor newsboys are exposed on overy-side. It will lead them to sympathiKO with tho unfortunate, and guard them against certain temptations which sooner or later will besot all young people. It is a good book for tho family or the Sunday School. Its teachings aro all pure, its tendencies philanthropic, and its'lessons religious. Every boy should read it."

The book is selling rapidly. Persons wishing an Agency should apply at onco to Itev.

HENRY MORGAN, NO. 9,

Groton street, Boston, Mass.,

Wilson—liOiigrstreet.

Tho Copperhead sheets of tho North are very abusive of tho Hon. Henry Wilson in conseoucnco of his Southern speech making tour. They, will have it that lie excites tho negroes against tho whitC3. and is acting the part of an incendiary generally. They ought to bo ashamed of such calumnies. Mr. Wilson is a man of too much sense to look to the negroes alone as allies of the Union party, for in all but two or threo of tho rebel States tlicro is a large majority of white men. Mr. Wilson presents the claims of his party to men of all colors, and is no less solicitous to see white voters embrace the political principles he advocates, than negroes. He is doing a good work in the South, not only in a political, but in a national sense. It is not well for parties to organize on geographical lines. Slavery coinpelled that once, butslavery is dead now, and there is no reason why the .Republican party shall not bo as freo to act, and as freo to declare its principles in Alabama as in Indiana. Tho mission of Mr. Wilson is to enlighten tho masses of tho South as to tho purposes of tho North, and to remove the prejudices which havo co instilled into their minds by lying demagogues—a work in which he is meeting\vith gratifying success.

General Longstrcet was ono of tho Vico Presidents of the great meeting addressed by Mr. Wilson at Now Orleans. Ho was a fighting rebel, but has been cured of rebellion and secession the Northern flunkies of tho secession leaders did not fight, and arc rebels in feeling still.—Ind. Journal.

May 10.

Notice is hereby given that I have received the annual tax list for the year 186G-7, for Mo^omory County, and will attend, by John Brittorl, deputy, at tho Collector's office in the city of Crawfordsvillo, daily from 9 o'clock A. M. to 4

o'clock P. M., until the 30th

day of May, inst., to receive the duties assessed on said list, after which tho penalty imposed by law will be enforced. This penalty must bo collected in all cases when a tax payer has become liable thereto, as tho Collector has no discretion in the matter.

JOHNS. WILLIAMS, Collector.

Mr. Amos Barker, who lives a few miles out of Aurora, on tho Dillsboi'o turnpike, was on Tuesday last, whilo on his way home from Aurora, robbed of about §120 by two villains who came along oft foot, and presenting revolvers demanded his pocketbook. The same two rascals, shortly after, met Mr. Beckot, of Dillsboro, dnd him of §100.

Yankeeplaobia.

Tho Copperhead party lias done a multitude of mean things, butnothing in a small way ia more contemptible than its efforts to excite^ hostility against tho Now Engjand States.r— There is no reason for this, other than tho inability of tho pieoplo of that soction to entertain an attachment for tho party which robelled against the Union and covered tho land with blood. The Knights of the Golden Circlo, Sons of Liberty, and other scoundrels of-like degree, made the air vocal with thoir howls against New England, while the fato of the country hung trembling in tho balance, and since those hyenas of politics have been driven to their lairs, their hatred of theso Republican States has- become an article of faith with the entire Copperhead party.

Tho people of Indiana havo not forgotten that in tho gloomy wintor of 1863, when the rebel organizations in our midst wore laboring to disorganize the army by exciting discontent among tho soldiers, encouraging desertions and discouraging enlistments, that it was a favorite Democratic project to havo.another division of tho Union in addition to that caused by tho Southern Democratic rebellion, and to "leave New England out in tho cold." That treasonable scheme failed, along with its originators, but its failuro has intensified Copperhead malignity towards this part of tho nation.-

Tho cost of putting down tho rebellion of tiie Democratic party against tho ballot box, is charged by the guilty authors of tho crime to New

England

demagogues who did all that was possible to prolong the war and add to its expense, by encouraging the rebels to continue tho contest after all hopo of its success? had perished, snarl at Now England because of tho magnitudo of our public debt and the increased cost of maintaining tho Government, consequent upon tho rebellion, is charged by tho advccatoa and friends of rebellion to tho account of Now England.

The latest and most farsical exhibition of this copperhead peculiarity is found in tho .justification of tho attempt to murder Judge Kelly at Mobile, on the ground that he was a New England cmissaiy.

Another, a little loss silly, is a nunciation of Massachusetts by New Albany Ledger, becauso hur gislaturc voted down a bill to pay 000,000 in the form of additionol bounties to tho soldiers from that State, who assisted in whipping tho Democratic rebels of the South.

detho Lc05,-

Democrats have livelier sympathies for soldiers than they entertained when Milligan and his associate conspirators were organizing to open a firo in the rear" of tho Union armies, and to deliver tho homes and families of Union soldiers to the enemy. Massachusetts has already paid somo millions of bounties to her soldiers since they returned from tho war, and before copperhead newspapers t.raduco her for not paying more, they should demand that their own States do as much as she has already done.—Ind. Journal.

Feniasa Ear&e's-Speeds. Per Steamer from Liverpool the 2d.— Tho following is an extract. from the speech of Fenian Burko, after hia conviction

It is not my desiro now, my lords, to givo utterance to ono word against the verdict which has been pronounced upon mo, but fully conscious of my honor as a man, never impugned fully conscioug I car. go into my grave with name and character unsullied, I can only say this that theso parties, actuated by a desiro either for their own aggrandizement, or to save their paltry, miserable lives, havo pandered to tho appetite, if I may so speak of justico, and my life shall be tho forfeit. Fully convinced and satisfied of the righteousness of my every act in connection with tho lato revolutionary movement in Ireland, I have dono nothing that would bring a blush of shamo'to mantlo my brow. My conduct and career horo and in .^mcrica, if you liko, as asoklior, aro before you, and even in this, my hour of death, I fell a consciousness of having lived an honest man, and I will die believing that I have given my life to givo freedom and liberty to tho land of my birth. I havo dono only that which every Irishman and every man whoso soul throbs with feelings of libcrt}* should do. I ask not tho death of a martyr, but if it is the will of Almighty and Omnipotent God that my devotion for tho land of my birth should bo tested at tho.scaffold, I am willing there to die in defenso of tho right of men to be free to givo to an oppressed peoplo tho right to throw off tho yoko of thraldom. I am an Irishman by birth, and an American by adoption, and by nature a lover of freedom, and an enemy to tho power that holds my native land in bonds of tyranny. It has so often been admitted that the oppressed havo a right to throw off tho yoke of oppression, oven by English statesmen, that I deem it unnecessary to advert to ic hero. Ireland's children are not, nor never were, and never will bo willing or submissive slaves, and so long as England's flag covers 9no inch of Irish soil, sho will devise means to hurl its power into oblivion, and erect in its stead a Godliko structuro of selfgovernment. ..

There aro several battle-worn and battle brused iron cannon, thirty-two and sixty-four pounders, at tho New Albany roling mills,.to be melted and converted into implements of peace. If tho sword there is not beaten into tho plowshare, the cannon is litorally melted and rolled into a railroad track. Wo greatly prefer to thunder, in a steam ear over these cannon as they will bo, to having them thunder over us as they onco were.—New Albany Commecial.

Russia is gradually encompassing tho dominions of tho Sick Man of the jfiast" with her legions. Two hundred and fifty thousand Muscovite troops have been concentrated at Sobastopol, which is more strongly forti-

robbed fiod than ever before. Odepa ia also filled with troops.

Democracy As It Is.

Ono provision o.f tho constitutional amendment now awaiting ratification by tho. rebel. States, tis" thoy may beoomo reconstructed, that Neither the United States nor any Stato shall asSum^i or pay any debt.or obligation indurrcd.in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of anyslave --but all such debts, obligations and claims shall bo held illegal and void."

Tho wisdom of Congress in proposing this amendment, and insisting upon its adoption as a condition precedent to tho final restoration of tho revolted States, is constantly vindicated by events. Tho lato rebel Democratic, or Democratic rebel Legislature of Maryland passed an act for tho appointment of commissioners in e.ach county, to take proof of the number of slaves lost by emancipation in that b'tatc, with their supposed value and tht? names of their owners. This was done with the purpose to claim compensation at the hands of Congress, if tho Copporhead Democracy should ever command a majority in that body, or if that doubtful period should never come, then to tax tho people of Maryland to make good tho losses of tho late slaveholders. That tho rebels of that State intend that tho negroes shall be paid for, is further evidenced by tho action of tho Constitutional Convention now in session, which has voted down a proposition to prohibit the Legislature from making compensation for slaves.

A restoration of. tho Copperhead Democracy to power would bo disastrous at any time, but would prove a national calamity if brought about boforo the amendment becomes apart of tho Constitution. Our debt would be doubled at onco by paying for slaves and making good the losses of tho creditors of tho rebel govornment.—Ind. Journal. ."

A SaSRS6IJBlLE STORY.

A Slaip of Death Floats into a Fori of Hie SlaetJaiad Islands. Sinco tho timo when tho Ancient Mariner told tho terrible tale of tho curse laden ship with her crew of ghastly corpses, no more thrilling story of tho sea has been related than that of tho whale ship Diana, that recently drifted into ono of tho Shetland Islands. ff-

A year ago she left tho Shctlands on a whaling voyage to tho Arctic regions. having on board fifty men. From that timo nothing more was heard of her. Tho friends of those on board becamo alarmed. Money was raised and premiums offered fcr tho first vessel that would bring tiding of tho missing ship, but all to no avail. Hopo was almost abandoned.

On the 2d of April tho pooplo near Kona'o Yoo, in ono of tho Shetland Isles, woro startled at sooing a ghastly wreck of a ship sailing into tho harbor. Battered and ico crushed, sails and cordage cutaway, boats and spars cut up for fuel in tho terrible Arctic wintor, hor decks covered with dead and dying, the long lost Diana sailed in like a ship from Headman's Land. Fifty men sailed out of Lerwick .in her on a bright May morning last year. All of the fifty came back on her on the 2d of April, this year the same, yet how different!

Ten men,-or whom tho captain was ono, lay stiffened corpses on tho dock thirty-fivo lay helplessly sick, and somo dying two retained sufficient strength to creep aloft, and tho other threo crawlcd feebly about tho deck. The ship was boarded by tho islanders, and, as they climbed over tho bulwarks. the man at tho wheol fainted from exoitement one of the sick died as ho lay, his donth being announced by tho fellow- occupant of his berth exclaiming in a feeble voice, "Take away this dead man." On the bridge of tho vessel lay tho body of tho captain, a? it had lain for four lnonths, with nine of hia dead shipmates by his side, all doccntly laid out by thoso who soon expected to share their fato.'" Tho survivors could not bear to sink tho-bodios of their comrades into tho sea, but kopt them so that when tho last man died tho fated ship that had boon their common homo should bo their common tomb. Tho surgeon of tho ship worked faithfully to tho last, but cold, hunger, scurvy and dysentery were too much,for him. Tho bravo old captain was tho first victim, and died blessing his men. Then tho others foil, ono by ono, until tho ship was tenanted only by tho dead and dying. Ono night moro at sea would havo left the Diana a floating coffin. Not ono of the fifty would havo lived to tell tho ghastly tale.

Tho Evanvillo, Indiana ".Journal says: "From a young gentleman who has just returned from Tennesseo, we aro glad to learn that the prospects for tho coming season in that State are highly flattering. Tho crops look fine, and tho pooplo aro industriously at work on their farms, and the planting this year will bo very large, and by another year tho peoplo will be well nigh recovered from tho ravages of war"

Grasshoppers aro at the presont moment the terror of Missouri, Colorado and Kansas. They havo, of course, not yet mad© their appearance, but thoy were in swarms last fall, and it is feared thoy will return.

The Cruelty of Wlrtz—Wliat One of Ills Prisoners Says About 15im —Diabolical Cruelty.

The efforts .Of Mr. Louis Sehadaj. Wirtz's counsel, to whitewash the memory of tho AndersOnvillo jailor, have brought out, somo strong tpstiijaonj' from an eye witness of his pruelties. Mr. L. J. 'Perry, of-, the Waupaca' (Wig.,) Criterion, who served as a noncommissioned officer in tho Second Wisconsin, in tho Army of tho Potomac, was taken prisoner, and confined at Andcrsonvillo, writos in his paper as follows

In tho war we had tho misfortune to bo captured by tho rebels, and served as a prisoner twenty months, during the greater part of which timo we were in the hands of the demon whom thoy (tho Democratic papers,) led by Schado, arc making a martj'r of. During that horrible blank in our life, we saw this man knock down and stamp upon sick Union prisoners, who were too weak to get out of his way wo saw and hoard him order a rebel guard to firo at a group of Union prisoners, which order was oboyed, by whrch means a Union soldier was maimed lb? life by tho loss of a #eg wo saw .him manaol'o- two men together, then whip one of them with a riding whip, until tho man could not stand we saw" four men shot dead, coolly and deliberately, by rebel guards under his order, who were murdered without cause wo saw, during the twenty months, not less than fifty dead bodies of brother Union soldiers so murdered wo havo heard Wirtz, at Richmond, order and even urgo his guards to kill every prisoner they could, plausibly wo heard .him say more than a hundred times thav every d—d Yankeo prisoner in tho South ought to bo hung wo know that iiis watchwords wore Kill, Slay, Destroy and last, but not least, whilo thoso thirty thousand wretched beings were literally starving at Andcrsonvillo, during the months of July and August, 1SG4, his expressions of demoniac dere of a W he a say at that timo, if tho North could be whipped by starving prisoners, ho could put a quietus to thirty thousand in short metre.
