THE DEMOCRAT.

T. McDOHALD, . . . .Editor. PLYMOUTH, IND. Tharsdav3Iorniug. iVusust 20tb -1S57. Circuit Court. The Marshall Circuit Cour .iiwd last Friday afternoon. There .t ij? v.onsid rable interest manifested, as there vere sereral important cases to be tried. The case of Gipe, a notice of whose sentence ire published last week, was generally con lid red to be the most important of the criminal cases, but his sentence would in dicate that his crime was a small affair. AYe have heard a general expression of dis satisfaction in regard lo the sentence of the court; and although we submit to the bur then with a full knowledge of its injustice, yet we Know that our taxes are high enough without supporting criminals after final trial, when we have paid our proportion of the expense of furnishing a place where they may be kept without being a burthen io anybody. Caughlin wa3 sentenced to the penitentiary for two years, (which is generally considered a just sentence,) for stealing a watch worth 875; if Gipe had received a sentence in proportion to the amount of money taken he would have been sent for a fraction over one hundred and one tcarsJ We suppose that In will board out bis fine of 8100 at 50 centf. per day, which will make about nineteen months that the county will have to sapport him. If we un derstand the subject, "which we think we do," the citizens of the county ard to sup port him for the commission of crime. We understand that there is about to be a petition circulated praying the "powers that 1k" for an "immediate and unconditional parden" for all the past offences of our cit izens, and that we may be relieved from ihe pending punishment. A boy by the name of Thomas Roach, iras sentenced to the county jail for 30 days for stealing a clock. The usual numKr nf ?vil fr.ip were broucrht ud and disVW W W ' Q A posed of, the greater portion by being con tinned, as usual. The Late EIcction,--The result of the lato electioas in Kentucky. Tennessee, Missouri, Texas, Alabama, 'orth Carolina and Louisiana, indicate, unmistakably, that the people tf those States have seen enough of the hideous proportions of the defunct "Sam." In Kentucky the Knov. Nothings had six of the ten Congressmen in the last delegation; now tW have but two. At that rate of discount by the time the next Congressional election takes place, they will be less than "nothing." At the Gubernatorial election, Morehead, Know Nothing, bad about 4,000 majority over his Democratic competitor; now the Democratic Stale Treasurer has a majority of 12,000. The Democratic gains in the other States arcvery near equal to those in Kentucky, clearly proving that the "sober second thought" i3 invariable in favor of the Democracy. Reversions of the prosperity of the Democratic party sometimes occur by an appeal to the passions and prejudices of those who are guided more by excitement than a just conception of true and genuine principles; but when that excitement dies, as - it must at some time, they .will return to the "first principles," which are the elements of the Democratic party. Its objects are the good of the nation, and hence the nation supports it. ; The last M. C. Democrat says The Plymouth Bank refused, a few days since, to redeem its paper even in currency t unless the bill holder would submit to shave of 2 per cent. People in the country having Dills on' this concern, would do well JLD get rid of them, even at a discount, for the time will most certainly come, when ' bills.oa the Plymouth Bank will not be re--deemd at any price." - .There is no such institution as the TlymouihSank," but the "Bank of Plymouth" is what the editor had referenca to, we presume. We understand that the chargein -reference to the rsfusal of the "Bn"kto redeem'its paper even in currency .unless the bill holder would subjuit to a bare of 2 per cent.' is incorrect. The editor was misinformed. Jtf. CJ Republican, 1 A inadvertently wrote, "Plymouth JBank," instead of "Bank of Plymouth," ff7e stand corrected on that point, but as x the shave, 2$ per cent, E. Moor of Union township, whose character for truth and eracity has neyer been ' questioned, says that. during- the last Court of Common Pleas in this place, he had a two dollar bill on the "Bank of Plymouth,'? which, he wanted to exchange for something that he -eoukL use. Ha went into . the ; Bank and presented. the bill and demanded the coin. He vas told by .the Bjtnk official that.; he could not, or would not redeem it unless : he tjould take ft percent less 7 than , the . üct oMia bill; this Mr.-Moor: refused Jo -do :il3-'tba requested, the bank officer to redcem.it in currency which.ha slso. refus-1 ,d tote, unless toiroald. eubmiV-.t the J:3Ir. Hoot wj thjd csTWilothfJ were present when he presented Lthe .bill t tnd tt3- so doubt bu t som ro f:tVo lect the circumstance. ., -

We wuh tue farmers "to recollect that we hare clerred our skirts of this wild-cat concern. '

Road Work. In the last M. C. Republican, an article1 over the signature of W. J. H., which seems to be designed in part as a reply to an article we wrote some two weeks fcince. under the caption of "road work." The writer seems to entertain the idea that some legal gentleman wrote the article. In or der to 6et this matter right, we will remark that we wrote the article the unkind allu- e(j sion was uncauea ior in tnis connection. 11 1 .1 . uem oi news, ana .n we were not mismfarmed, we gave a correct statement Yej learn mat J uage : JLgoert ana tne J ustice .11 I ?.l -1 1 .

As there has been an average harvest taken care of in our county, we hope our patrons will remember the printers and give them a lift if it is nothing more than a "half-sheet," it will be verv acceptable, C. I. & C. It. It. In our issue of the 5th inst., we staW that we were inclined to the opinion that . . , . , . . - . . ihn Kmrt wnHid not hp nuilt from this w..s, - place to Peru, unless the present stockholders would consent to give up all ihey had subscribed, &c, and that the present - . Äu v,,,nr.AnA nnA A company would be disbanded, and a new one formed, which vould probably build it. The Peru Republican understands, from our remarks, that, we are in favor of that , . j.j ir ' 1 J course beinjr adopted. If our language of o o justifies that conlusion, it was not mtentional on onr part, for we cerLmnly thiuk it would be doinjx the stockholders great injustice for a new company to step in and i i i . i ii r.u k e - k,.:u take the last dollar of the Assets for building the Koad ana apply it to tneir own Deufit. We know several old men in this countv that have wive the last foot of land they J - - had on Birth, to-assist in. building the Road, believing from the representations of its Agents, that it would be a good investment; but their hopes are likely to be blasted. We should exceedingly regret to see the stockholders euchred out of the last farthing, but if the road is ever built, we predict that such will be the case.

The Trouble in India. The news from India evidently excites alarm in the British Government, for though the final issue of this outbreak must result in the subjugation ot'the revoke rs, followed by a terrible punishment as an example, yet the contest may be carried on for a longer period than is cTMiient or profitable to the British' Government. Commerce suffers b7 the exactions which are required r:. : .: r i t i v 1 " " v ' 4 AMU '"uierueas expensive anu as recuperative as u may t . n t De, must sun ieci severely tne cost et the continual hostilities in which England seems to be involved, wi h a prospect of turther long-continued and expensive, operation6 in India and China.

That they will do it is ceriain, for England cannot afford to lose her to maintain. But with this example of a talsö principle before her, on which to base her commercial greatness, why'seekto repeat it in China? The intention to conquer the latter country is repudiated in the speeches of British statesmen, and in the comments of leading English journals, yet if conquest is not intended, what is? How can English views prevail, unless force is continually applied to a government which excludes all outside interferencewi.h its policy? Willnot any power which undertakes 'his formidable task, with so intractable and self-sufiicent a nation as the Chinese, bo driven from, one step to another, till finally conquest and subjection will be the only remedies left it for its own safety? Can any one poa-er long maintain such a colossal empire by force China and its three hundred millions of natives, anu India, with its one hundred and seven-ty-two millions? Pkila.Lzdgr. High Water is tue Lake- The 'cater of Lake Michigan is now sard to be higher than it has ever been known since J 838, when the rise was so great as to kill trees over one hundered yers old . The level now is but fourteen inches 4 below that of 1838. This fact is not in accordance wiih( the supposed periodical rise and fall known as the seven years' theory. The 3 mouths of the completed city sewers are half filled with water, which demonstrates that they have not been constructed too high. A heavy north east blow, raising the water a foot and a half higher, might do considerable damage to goods stored in many of the cellars of the city. , . i i . .

Hite.as agent of the owners, accompanied them to Middleburg, Pa., where, with a present to each of 640 in money, and sufficient clothing, they were set at liberty. , . An enormous sunfish was captured in Hampstead bay on Sunday last. The species of fish is a stranger, to our part of the world, betng usually found in tropical latitudes. It seemed altogether a nondescript sort of animal. ' Its dimensions were some nine feet six inches in length, by about four in breadth, and its weight was nearly or quite one thousand pounds. - Goldsmith mentions one which was captured near Plvmouth, England, which weighed five hundred pounds; but we believe they : do not often exceed half that size.
