Fusion papers, ia reference to Mending Kansas since the Presidential eleetlon? Wo signified to our readers some months since, that we had no hope, that quiet would bo restored to that ill-fated conntry, as long as the republican cause could bo furthered, by sacrificing the lives and property cf innocent and unsuspecting persons; a large number of lives have been lost and an immense quantity of property has been destroyed, ia order to elect John C.Fremont President. It occurred to Greeley, Bennett, Seward, Giddings, &c, that if they could keep cp a civil war in Kansas and charge the whole dißicul ty on the Democracy, ia consequence of the repeal of the Missouri Compromise, and raise the cryofF.ee Men, Free. Kansas, and Fremont, thej could possiMj succeed, but ! suas! how .sadly thr hare Leen mistaken.! j TKfiat alxileJ. pec-pi caa look at thU fßV j-ei taora hz-pxrJ-lLlT '&ga Lerefe&re; hzn aal 'perti: "jjaifci & Iw&st sssea, täte hsesi c&ls to L!5yv6 jLU f$w kzxl 532 xra n ksc&ss tf i tparrr,! tUaifitf. eft vtiL ton Jnr''.x5wis5aSsft5 u aErxdÜotfeis's! r cwft.HaM tea fJKÄ?ai aOsaBtistti&w to 5Qiy ?i 3s sT s cafe litte eÄ3?4 '4 übe &ictf crxsäc ?artr Ibur la6 rdSttad tiseoHails, of da-ss joJilSaas Bau tobaaj CB

To all such we would say, como back, como ; " back. Whenever a person goes astray, the better way 'is to - immodiateiy retrace their steps. There is no political safely ..outside of the democratic party. The Old Lino Whig party, in iU day, wa3 national, but it has passed away. The Know Nothing party flourished for a . season, and ; ceased to exist as a party. Republicanism, 'which was composed of all the i3ms, the principal b gradient being Abolitionism, hi3 flourished for a season, but it, uo, is passing away. The most öuperficial ob-c-?.ryer cannot fail to see that the democratic party is the only. permanent political party that brj existed since th formation of the gern.cnt, ( v. the Dutchman justlv renjarkd;) U tiüs sara? yesterday; to-

clay and to-morrow; it is the gre.it conservative party that holds in check tho wild spiri4. of fanaticism, that sweeps over the land like, a f irocco. Our advice to all who value the liberties and privileges that we, as a nation, enjoy, is to act in future with the democratic parly,. you ;wi!l then have the proad.satisfactiouof contributing vour mite toward the perpetuity of those privileges that cost our forefathers so much

' : The Township Libraiies, when proper" Iy appreciated will bo prized 'very highly by those who have a lasto for information. The Library in this p!aco contains about 330 volumes, and has ben read, what is equivalent to-five- times. Parents .should encourage their children to form habits of reading useful books, which can be obtained at the Libraries free of charge, and when such habits are once formed, there will bb no difficulty in keeping them posted, if in addition to tho Library books they read the Democrat. ; ' - , Tremendous Gale.

Wc understand that there is a project on foot, which, (if those who receive tho mo3t ttfnefit from Road in case it should be built, will subscribe liberally,) will insure its speedy completion. Real estate owners could well afford to give bountifully, in case they should never receive a ccnt in return, only the increased price they would rcceh o for their produce ' and the enhan cing of the .value of their lands. This road willbc a . very important out let to Marshall county, and we hope that those of our citizens who art not in unfor bidding circumstances, will pui their shoul der to the. wheel, and help movo it along. All cm see tho importance of a road on this router at a glance, particularly to the north half of our county; and should this oppor tunity pass 'unimproved, another may not occur soon a?ain Success to the I lym-. outh, South Bend & "NilesRaii Road.
