D. & P. McDONALD,::::::::::::::: Editors. PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY, OCTOBER-- - - - -7, 1858 The County Expenses. As the County expenditures are the bnrthen of the delinquent Republican candidates' song, we hare taken the trouble to examine the record in reference to the indebtedness of the County;and the means of liquidating the same. ' The Auditor's Report to the County Commissioners at their June torm, 1853, shows tho entire indebted ness of the Coun ly, at .that time, to be $3,C30. The amount of delinquent tax Teturned to the Auditor, by. the Treasurer, was something over 8 12,000; of thi?, tlv?re was about the sum ef S5,570 County tax, proper. A portion of it will not bo collected, of course; but it is reasonable to suppose that there will nor be more than 81,000 lost, which would leave 84,600. In addition to this, there is the sum of 8924 due from the Pittsburg, Fort Wavno k Chicago Rail Read Company, for 1857, which the Auditor of Allen County informs us he has made arrangementiMo have paid in April, 1859; this, added la tho 84,500 wouid make 85.40J, which is about $l,C00over and above the Countv indebtedness. The Republicans are circulating the statement i i different par.a of the County, thai our Coun'y itidelyedness is 85,000 :m put it as high as 810,000 but are very careful not to say a word about the amount due the County. Any person, with ordinary discerning powers, can see from the foregoing figures that the bug-bear story of the Republicans is for political effect, and not fot the purpose of posting the people in regard to the ticts. The expenses of the County cannot be calculated one year in advance; but the Commissioners estimate the probable ex penditures of the County, and levy the tat accordingly. If the year should prove to to bo an unhealthy one, the expenses of the Poor, Insane, fcc, may bo double that of the year from which their estimate is taken. It was not expected that they would foresee that there would be a storm which would damage our Jail to the amount of three or four hundred dellars. The Pv-or are taken caro of by tho Township Trustees, and the Commissioners allow their orders, or those interested appeal. The fees in criminal caßes, the allowances of Jurors, Bailiffs, Assessors, Commissioners, Road Viewers, Judges of Elections, tkc, are all fixed by law. The law makes provision for taking care of tho Insane, and spcifius the allowance for the differ ent items of eipense connocted therewith. From these, and many other allowances made by law, it will be seen that but few of the county expenses can bo reduced, nie:, the lawg are changed. -The Commissioners have but a very 6mall margin left to operate upon for the purpose of reducing the expenses of khe. County Last year, the amount of receipts wis-, within iwo dollars of being equal to the expenses. After examining the County records. and the acts of our County. officials, we are assured that every officer lias discharged his duty faithfully. TJieir ; duiiesare plainly marked out, and if they fail, to discharge them properly, any citizen of the County can file an affidavit, setting forth cause of complaint, and have the matter investigated. If they fail to do thin, but. sneak behind the contemptible and cowardly plea that "it's no use, they have all the money," tec, you 5may conclude that they know ' their statements to , be be false, else they would, bring .foryard some ; lestimouy for tbe purpose of substantiating them. 'Until they do thi3, set them dovn as those who 'falsify the record." '.The delinduent Republican candidates do not tell ;, the . peopie , that . nearly one half our County expenses are frora-or-ders and allowances of Republican Judges. We da not charge them "with making allowances not authorized by law, but mention the fact to show the unfairness of those who are so anxious to get the management of the County affairs. i' i " We have given a general outline of the state ofour'Qounty finances; tho statements are all taken from the record, and are net mere idle rumors, but :are (acts: that dare not be denied." -Their' leaders manufacture fatso 'statistics in regärd to the expenditures of-the County,' "Theycharge '.our officers m-m fr I I mIi tain wmawa Cs m 4 V. m m V 1 m ot aITawwm , &. squandering other crimes equally .blackbut bricg-'no proof. Un;il they do prove their statements correct, we shad consider them wholly and entirely false.

- Mr. Colfax Backs Down. . Countrary to the expectation of ever man who loves truth's sake, the Republican candidate for Congress uttetly refused to meet and divMo the time in a free and fair divcussion of he issues between tho Democratic and Republican parties, when the proposition was submitted to him at this place on Saturday last, through Mr. Barnett on the part of the Democrats. 'Mr Beech of Indianapolis, having on appointment in this place on the same day with Mr. Colfax, and a large number of both panies being present it was hoped by all the Democrats, and urged by the more honest part of the Republicans, that a fair and friendly discussion would elicit truth and expose error, and that no publio man should fear to have piinciples investigated upon which he belived the future happiness and well being of the government depended. But no, this could not bo done, by this Hero of Republicanism; he is ery clear of meeting a Democrat when one is ready, willing, and ablo to expose and unmask the hypocrite ard demagogue; od hold up to merited scor.i and contempt his publio acts as a Legislator. This Hero is willing to meet at some school-house, any demo-, ciat who has not given the subject of politicoes his atten ion. There ho is a pcfect lion and can defy all contradiction! . Many Republican were mortified at the refusal of Mr. Colfax to eo reasonable anil fair a proposition, and declared that if they could not hear both sides of a question discussed, that they would not listen to him. And dkl not. Mr. Colfax sung the same old song, to the sam old tune that he has ever since the canvass commenced. He bored his hearers for over two hours! Mr. Beach delivered to address's, one at two o'clock and the other at niht t the great satisfaction of his large and attentive audience. The Democracy never felt better than they did during his two ablo speeches. Pulaski Democrat, 14Ä inst. EVEIIY VOTE CAStFOR J. O: PARKS IS A VOTE FOR

. Gone! Ah, that word sinks like a funeral knell upon the heart! Gone, all those dear old scenes of childhood and youth's more thinking, hours; they rose like the sun of infancy's morn, flung down their meridian -blaze -in youth, sank beneath the horizon ere manhood. . Gone! she of the rosy lip and dew bright eye, sank down, among June's roses, in the pleasant sleep of death, the soul's . idol. She died; smiling, for her soul knew no sorrow. Gone? Where? "To Heaven where the angels, are. j The forgotten melodies of old came thronging back through tho halls of memory as sweetly as when they were sung by loved ones, and plucked the shadows from the years of long ago. Gone! But not forever. The golden gates of Heaven are not bolted, and loved ones are not parted on that radiant shore. Gone! noble hearts and true; gone to swell the countless millions in the dim land of spirits. Warm heart3 that beat no more but moulder in tho loathsome tomb. Gone!

A goneral panic seems to pervade all, and each man waits for his neighbor to set the example of going to work. So long as we supinely bewail oar misfortunes, no better time will ever come.

The soil will again be made to yield its fruit in due season; trade will revive and all will go on well till another season of prosperity makes reckless, and we fall back again into old habits.

IVo Young: Lady " Can be too well instructed in anything that will affect the comfort of a family. Whatever position in society she may occupy, she needs a practical knowledge of the duties of housekeep?ng. She may be placed in circumstances that it is not necessary for her to do much domestic labor; but on this account she needs- no less knowledge than if she was obliged to preside personally oxer the cooking stove and pantry. Indeed, I hare often thought it was more difficult to direct others, and it requires more experience, than to do the same work with our own hands. Mothers are frequently so nice and particular in their domestic arrangements, that they do not like to give up any of them .to their daughters. This is a great mistake, for they are often burdened with labor and need relief. Children should be early taught to make themselves useful to assist parents ia every way in their power, and consider it a privilege to do so. Domestic labor is by no means incompatible with the highest degree of cultivated refinement and mental culture. Many of the most elegant and accomplished wo.nen hayo looked well to the household duties, and have honored themselves and their husbands in so doino.

The Citizen, an indpendnt Republican paper of conservative proclivities, in com menting upon the management cf our State affairs under the Democratic administra tion pays the folkmir.g deserved and just compliment to the State officers: .Setting political influence entirely aside, wo, as independent journalists, take occasion to say that the course ot the present financial officers of tho State hau been marked by ability and wisdom.

They did the best they could under uch circumstances they did right. Ihey prevented the people of fhe State from being ground to powder between the upper and nether milestones of opposing panies, and sa.ved us from devastation and social ditsoluticTfi For this they descrre thanks instead of denunciations and tl3 least that can be done for them in return, is for live people to sanction and legalize their official acts at the earliest opportunity. If it be objects 1 that they acted without law, we remark that, the people, through their representatives acted without law. The four years lau pist has been an era of lawlessness. Bering without law, tho officers In question have ben a law unto themselves;" they haYe not avoided responsibility; and future generations wi'I?, if tho present doe3 not. bless them for preserving the State from the horrors of anarchy and disgrace.
