TIE DEMOCRAT. D. . VANVAI.KENBL ROH. I mmMmm TLATr McDonald, JWltor Tkuridir, December ft, IM. MARMI ALL COIVTY DEMOCRATIC; C9ÜTEVTMM. At the ineetinir of the Democratic Central Committee, on the 13th instant, it was decided to hold thi Count? Con ention to aelect delegates to attend the Htate Conrention, on Saturday, Deoembor I I , '69 ai one o'clock P. If., at the Court Ilouse in Plrmouth; and it is recommendod that the democracy of the respective townships in the county hold their township conventions on the Saturday preceding the day of the county convention, and select their delegates to attend the county convention. It 19 hoped that every township will hold a convention and that they will all be fully represented at the county convention. Now is the time to lay the foundation for the next campaign. Lot the primary conventions be well attended and good democrats ?elacted to attsd the sounty and State conventions. By order of Committee. A. C. Thompson, Chmn. M. W. Bowüey, Sec.

TownMliip Convention. It if reoomended that the Democracy of the various townships in Marshall rounty meet on Saturday next (the 4th inst.) and select delegates to attend the county eonvention to be held at the court house on Dec. 11th, and that each township tend the same number of delegates as nt the last county convention; in accordance with which recommendation the democraoy of Center township will ureot at the court house at 2 o'clock, p. m., Dec. 4, and select delegates accordingly. By On i ' f& of Committed. Bourbon Townwliip Democratic Convention. The Democracy of Bourbon township are requested to meet in Bourbon, on Saturday, December 4th, 1869, at 2 o'clock, p. m., for the purpose of appointing delegates to the county convention to be held in Plymouth. Dec. 11th. CONGRESS AXIt THE IIXAXCES. The approaching session of congres is looked to with much anxiety, especially iu the west, where monetary tightness seems to he encircling every department of trade and productive industry within its iron grasp. In the eastern states, which hold an undue pro portion of the national currency, the general prostration of trade is not so gTeat as here in the west, where the volu ue of currency in circulation is lesu than at any timo daring the past ten ytars. It is said that western members of eongress, by reason of a recent commingling with the peple, will favor the immediate passage of a general banking law, lor the purpose of supplying currency to all parts of the country, in nch portions as may be required; or, failing in this, they will work for a redistribution of the national currency, by taking from the eastern states, and giving to the west and south. The probability is that they will fail in both these undertakings. The money influence of the east is all-powerful. Western courage and endurance may 6ubdue forest, build a railrad across the continent, and face the most appalling dangers on land and sea, but when a clash of interests brings the west face to face with the monied aristocracy of the east, we are as chaff before a mighty wind. Western men start to Washington with their pockets full or financial measure.;, calculated to benefit their section of the country, by eqn ilising the burdens and favors to be derived froai congressional legislation; but it is srtfe bo say that in nine caes in every ten, that is the last of them. There is no help fur this so long as the Republican party maintains its ascendancy, and works harmoniously on all parfy measures, as it hxs . done heretofore. If the Democrats tshould not succeed in getting a majority in congress, at the next election of nesiber, there some hope that a schism will be effected betweeu eastern and western Republicans on the tariff and other financial measures, among whom there is now a ' radical" difference of opinion, which sectional interests may no embitter that the cohesive power of public plunder may prove unable to hold tho incongruous elements together But this result can only be attained by edu cating the masses to that point where they vill refuse to elect any man. Democrat or Republican, who fails to battle earnestly and successfully for their rights, and against monopolies and dsM leguluiiou of every nanio and kind. Then, and not till then, may wi eonfi - dently lo k for an equal distribution of the tax-; and currency, and a tariff framed for revenue purposes only. J We find the subjoined extract in the proceedings of the leruocratic convention of St. Joseph county. We sincerely regret that Col. Eddy has deoidwd upon the course indicated. A more popular man does o4 reaide iu this section of the -state, and we had hoped his name would head the tieket thi tall. We now hope he may be prevailed upon to permit the uae of hi name : Tho following resolution wae unao-imu.-iy adopted: Rewlved, That wc deeply regret the poeitiro deelination of our belored fellow citizen, Cetnd Norman IMdy, to

become a candidate for the office of Secretary of State. He would have made a standard bearer whom the Democracy would delight to follow.

EDITORIAL BREVITIES. The Columbia City Post says that for the first time in many years corn is bringing as much per bushel as wheat. Also, that the grocery and provision store of Mr. John Brannon wasburned on Friday night of last week; loss about S3, 300, no insurance. On the evening of the 17th ult., a youug man in Marysville, Allen county, accidentally shot himself with a horsepistol, horribly mangling his face and head. He lived less than five minutes after the fatal shot. The dead body of an infant was und in the vault of an outbuilding belonging to tho house occupied by one Martin Haley, of Monroeville. The evidence of guilt pointed strongly to one Sarah Oats, whe had made her home in tho family, for some time, and who, about ten days before, had given birth to a child; and said child was missing. Frank Zimmirman, of tho Warsaw Union, has taken unto himself a wife. The ministers of the various churches in Peru have formed a society for the advancement of the religious welfare of tbsir several congregations. If we mistake not, their example is commendable. The Catholics of Peru have placed in the tower of their church a bell which far surpasses any other in the city. The Sentinel says Miami is the only county in the state which does not present one Of more candidates for nomination by the 8th of January convention. A mistake. Marshall, with her reliable Democratic majoiity. presents no candidate. In LaPorte, tho Democratic convention will meet on the 18th of December. Pork selling at 11 cents per pound, and live hogs at 8. Oue porker brought $50. The Disciple church is being improved by the addition of a baptistry. The Aryns chronicles the fact that a dealer in furniture in that city shipped six chairs and a sofa to a gentleman at Plj-inouth, the price of which vras $250. The growing wheat crop does not look as well as could be desired. The old settlers of LaPorte county have organized a Pioneer Society, consisting of 108 members GG men and women. We noticed many familiar names in the list of members. The lit raid, in exceeding bad taste, accompanies the names of members with a statement of their politics and religion. GüRNEY, of the Valparaiso Yidctte. objects to having his "church relations" referred to by members of the press. He excoriates the LaPorte Herald for thus alluding to him. Tho Herald1 misfortune shall be a warning to us. The Viu tie publishes in its issue of November 25th a rep rt of a Sunday school convention held at LaPorte on the 2Gth and 27th of October. We rejoice that the exhaustive effort required by such enterprise has in no way affected the editor's prospects for long life and happiness. The Yidettc speaks in strong terms against the nomination of Judire Frazier, of Warsaw, for re-election to the office ofsupreuicjudge,and announces its intention of battling against his elec tion it' he should be put upon the Republican state ticket. The cause of ita opposition we It HOW not. A public meeting has been called in Warsaw to devise ways and means of enforcing the law regulating the sale of intoxicating liquors- Better elect Democrats to office, who will enforce the law without the aid of public meetings. Look at us! The Indianinn gets up n pretty good local, composed principally of self-laudations. It is surprising the number of changes that may be rung on a single string. A daughter of Sam'l Wilson, who lives three miles west of Warsaw, was fatally injured by falling with her side on a pail of water which she was carrying; she died iu fifteen minutes after falling. The Indianian advises young ladies to get up clubs for it, The young ladies can doubtless be more respectably employed. Vanatta, who was sent to the Penitentiary from Kociuko county, and afterward brought bnA to Warsaw, upon a decision made by the Supreme Court, on some legal point involved iu the trial, has had another trial and has been acquitted. A stabbing affray occurred at Mishawaka on Tuesday, of last wock. Slocuni. a livery man, attacked Fisher, a painter, on account of some misunderstanding botwecn them, when Fisher turned upon him, and gave him three severe cuts with a knife. Slocum will not die. Nasby lectured in South Bend on Monday evening of last week. As a a failure in the lecturing business, he is said to be eminently BMMMÜtL The Singer Sewing Machine company exJ p-.-r-ts bo turn out from 815,000 to $18,000 worth of work per week, next Mffasg. Joum Gibson, an old aud esteemed citizen of South Bend, died on Monday of Inst week. Thanksgiving was generally observed in South Hend. A very different state of affairs existed in Plymouth. The Ligonier Davner says: "It is invariably the case that those who promptly pay their subscription are the best satisfied with their paper." If there are any dissatisfied patrons of the I) km OCR at, they have their remedy. The Ft. Wayne Democrat, complains that after the city has given $100,000 to the Ft. Wayie, Maneie & Cincinnati railroad, there is no train ! May be taking care of the mouej i all the railway company can do

An election was held in Mississippi, Nov. 30. and Dec. 1. The returns indicate the election cf Dent, the conservative candidate, over Alcorn the radical.

From Ron r bun. Bourbon, Nov. 29, 18C9. Ed. DrMocRAT: Preachers, as a goneral rule, are a very respectable class of men, but as '-In Adam's fall, we sinned all," it does not surprise us when we occasionally hear of one leaving the paths of rectitude and virtue to travel the road that lead through the quicksands of sin and death. We heard of one, who, not long ago, attempted to impose on some of the good people of a town not far distant. He came in possession of a very poculiar kind of workmanship, and having no use for it himself, desired to dispose of it, but finding no one who deemed it fit for use, he did not succeed. But he determined not to give it up so, and presented a bill for services not rendered, the payment of which, of course, was vcry promptly declined. Had it not been for the timely interference of a friend who knew him to be a man who had alwuys borne a good character, he would probably have got into serious trouble, as the ''joke" he was perpetrating was partaking of quite a serious nature, and those for whom it was intended were slow in seeing the point. He says he is now out of the scrape all riuht, and his experience in the business will be a striking lesson to him never to attempt the like again. All concerned agree that the matter should be hushed up, and so mum is the word. Thelast seen of him he had come into possession of a broad brimmed hat, and was taking lessons in parliamentary law. Some of our boys being filled with the musical afflatus, having read that "Mn-oe hath charms to soothe I ravage, lieuil a rock, or bust a cabbage." have organized a string band, whose dulcet strains are expected to charm our music loving people during the holidays. So. A revival me ding is in progress at the U. B. Church, under supervision of Elder Manvillc, of the Christian denomination. He has a wide field for operations, and it is hoped that much good may result from his labors. Our Methodist brethren have already commenced making preparations for a "Christmas Treo" and the little folks are on "tip toe" for the coming sweets. Oue patrons will bear us out in the statement that wo have not been verv importunate in our demands upon them for the amount due us. But we do desire to make settlement with every one of them between this and the first of January, 1870, that we may commence the new year with a clear record. Wo are making out bills reaching up to the time indicated, and hope that all will see the necessity of conforming to a rule which is being adopted by our best business men , that is to havo the books balanced at tho beginning of the year. GOLD is now down to 22ft,23 premium and silver is quoted 1213. The chief eauso is the stringency of the money market and lack of speculation A Simm'1i by Napoleon. Paris, Nov. 29. The eaion of the cnate and corps legislatif was ie-opencd with great ceremony by the emperor, who delivered his openiug speech from the throne. "It was hoped that the empresa night possibly return in time to take part in the ceremonies, but she has not yet reached Paris. The emperor said: It is not easy to establish regular and peaceful liberty in Franco. For months past society seemed to be men aced by subversive pnasiona , and freedom compromised by tho excessiveness of tho press and of public assemblages, but common sense has already properly judged these culpable exaggerations that have, after all, sorved but to prove the solidity of the edifice founded by popu lar suffrage. But this uncertainty and trouble must last no loueer. The will of the people must be made known in France, the wants of liberty, with order. Order, I answer for. Help, Messieurs, to secure liberty. Between those who would change all, and thoso who would grant nothing, a glorious cause may be chosen." The emperor then referred to to the senatus coiisultum of September last, which, he said, he had proposed with the purpose of inaugurating a new era of conciliation and progress.

Tho potatoc crop in Pike county is so abundant, and the price so low, that some of the farmers are feeding their potatoes to their hogs, rather than haul them to market. The Lafayette Journal learns that a girl named Nolan, living near Oxford, commit ted suicide last Friday night by taking strychnine. The only cause which can be assigned for the rash act is that her father had purchased her a dress in the city which did not suit her. Joseph Smollett, of Jasper countp, Ind., went to Chicago, the other day, to be treated for a mild case of tapeworm.

This rapid progression is the more satisfactory because it is made by so staunch an institution, which, liko its name, is synonymous with tho sterling itialities of solidity, ateadfastues., and security Its popularity is doubtless proportionately attributable to its abolition of the usual restrictions on travel and occupation, its helpful acceptance of note in part payments of premiums, the division of its profits, in the shapo of dividends, among the insured, and the engraftment of tho non-forfeiture pta i on its system."
