PACKARD. August lO.h, If C'l. Hia Only Argument. For some three or four weck, in particular, our fiiend up street, has been taking the short method of answering O.vi various things that have appeared in the Dnuocrat, from time to timf:,tht he did not like and could mt answer to suit himself nur his masti-rs. Wh-n ve ,ivo his and their own !:mc:igc and figures . hi says we "lie," or the conclusions we come to arc " lies ;' but he does not show wherein, we have "lied," from the fact tiiat he cannot, lie knows he cannot, and that is why he takes the short m'-thod of answering these niiic h -. When ho pre tends to answer an) thing it is something of very little importance, and he only does if to ilireet the minds of his readers from ina tt era of much greater importance, which he, Fcli.fr, Oi.i.jeke i. Co., do not desire to have discu-s -d at any greater length. There are some stubborn fact ' that stare him in the face and he can think of no better way to get along with them than to say that we " lie," when we state these facts. lie knows the annual exhibit of Auditor I i i.i.er was a miserably botched rjp, unsatisfactory and incorrect report of the firiinteea of the county, and that if the first two were -correct, that .Mr. Fili er failed to account for the snoncys we have before spoken of, which in the last exhibit t rejxu ts, n mount to $1.072.65. If they sre rilt, then the Auditor has authorized the ditor f tie BspuLlican to mutilate and chauge the exhibit, ia the hope of deceiving the peoplo and making them think that everything had been reported correctly. If there exhibits are incorrect, astley certaiidy are, then Mr. Fuller is not .th " L'uMrmyr w:it'il the ithtor wishes to make thu iojVe of the oomrty believe he h, and filter ntakibg ri'.ch bhmder, t, after having at-M-ctpted ro swindle the coimtytit of over $1.000, it comes with a poor grace from yim to be croaking about the inewprteuKy M or "dishonesty" f jther he waj an hoieft man, every time he roV the wnl incompetent.'" that riunefxbi'rt of his would rise up before him, and lie would there begin to subtract, as in his first exhibit; and, if he slill contend that Iiis first exhibits were rig.ht, tton th $1.072.65 stands before hi in a witness tliat civics hi m of trying to deceive the taxpayers of tiie county. If .he third exhibit was correct, then both the others were wrong,-and th county Coinmisioner are alike guilt f with the Auditor fr having signed a false or untrue statement of the moneys of the county, for they exatrdneJ and approved" tho exhibits, and if they were not correct, then these " honest and competent ' i.lliiials have shown the mselvetf to Lor either " iiiconipefe'it' or not as hont a' they have professed to be. Right here, we say, that so fir as some of them are renowned, we impute it to their ignorance, as we believe them, or at least oife of thorn, to le an lionest man ; but they hve be?n blowing about their "competency' as though it -as impossible for thtm to make a rr.lstr.ke, and Jiar accused other men, of just as good character r:s their own, of dishonesty and " embezilemant," to ucS an xttnt that they should be ashamed to A.k or epeet the sympathy of the people, for, how cao they expect the lenity and fairness that they will not grant to others, who tby hare verr reason ti Vlievtj are ai hoiieot as they j retend to be. The vditor of the ltf publica knows that the "competent" and "obliging Treasurer' has gone contrary to law, and received unlawful money for the payment of taxes, and he knows that thu people are beginning to see the partiality of this official, snd the old gentleman is afraid they will administer the rebuke ho so richly deserres for hifl partial and unlawful cour.- as an officer. All these things, and more, our neighbor knmrs to be true, airl he knoirt also, that he cannot nnke them appear in any other light than m "stubborn facia," and he and hi advisers or owners have FCUlVd on the policy of raying these facts are " lies," a thoy all understand, that the more they aUfiapt to rjplaitt, the worse they make it.

Getting . ,, .... . , The lornudable, severe, sagacious, n,,d experieiice! "Hell" editor of the Republican is bepining to whine pitcotwly, and we did not know him to De gUCi a vjje aj malicious slanderer and defamer of the c haracter of all those who happen to differ with him on political matters, we might give him som res!. Under a display heading of four lines and three 'lashes, the old gentleman attempts to be severe 0,1 U3' bnt hef,,rc he got halfway through, he commenced puppying ami whining, about our ma king charges against hi pets and keeping him all the time answering them. We do feel a little sorry for the sagacious old gentleman, when we see the position he has gotten himself and friends into by trying to explain and answer questions. He is evidently very tired of it, seeing that he is all the time making a bad matter worse. For some month past he lias been etding, worming and twisting about until he find his "back bone" is failing, hs knees are begining to knock together and he is getting short of wind. lie has said that the present county officers were all competent and honest, we have shown that they were not both, that they were cither incompetent or dishonest, and the sagacious editor dos not know which horn of the dilemma to take (he would rather lake a "horn" of brandy than either,) and he is in a perfect fret and funic. After saying that we have published the "most barefaced nnd mendacious statements in regard to the Auditor and Treaure, .Messrs. Fuller and Odesbec, than whom Marshall Countv never h ul more faithful or competent officers." the si vere old gentleman gives us "Hell in tho follow ing whining manner: "His object, or rather, the object of his owners, who not only dictate to him the course to pursue, but actually" assist hini in editing his libelous and licentious jdieet, is four-fold. They hope by making one false charge after another against the Republican ofiiicers to direct the attention of the people from themselves, keep us busy defending, so that we cannot find time to arraign them for the corrupt and dishonest acts they have been guiltv of themselves, and erect a perfect breastwork of lies behind which they can fight.' If our d iteincnts are such barefaced falsehoods' whv does he not show them tobe such. He merely makes tho assertion that they pre lalse, but does not even attempt to show wherein they are incorrect. The truth h, that he knows the charges we have made, of "incompetency" or "dishonesty," are true and dial he cannot by his long, complex and tangled up sentences disprove our assertions. Th;. is why he writhes so. If he could show that they were untrue, the first thing le would go at would be to extricate himsc'f and particular friends from the position their noraiie or willful dishonesty has placed them in; but the facts arc against him and he can only call them "false hoods, lies, slander, barefaced and mendacious statements," nnd the Democrat a "libe lous and licentious sheet." lie is exasperated and almost entirely exhausted on these questions and charges, but true to his r.ture,he sticks to his old vocabulary of blackguard words "lie, libelous, tdander, licentious," ic. ic. We hope that his last moments may be peaceful and calm, but we fear the last thing that will ever emcnate from his lips will be "lie, tdander' libelous, falsehood," or something of tLe kind, and his last malediction, a curse on all who differ with him on politics- Were it not that the last words of all great mt ware generally made apart of their "life" we would rather that the above quottl would not be his "las: words," but, as his biogradhy should represent his true character, these word should make up at least one-half the volume, as, without them, the reader would fail to form anything like a correc t idea of the real charactvnstie of the man. Jor-.s' Manliness. Jihw C. Jones, the Repub lican candidate for " Representatives," is a'inanof but little sense, but is possessed of by far less manliness than he is of bruins. Ry this we do not wish it to be understood that wc are paying his good sense any compliment, for our opinion of him is, that he is a much prcater fool than James C. Parks, our resent " Representatives." Jones is cowardly and sneaking. He will not make any arrangement to canvass the counties with Packasd. Mr. P. offerc! to let him (Jones,) set the time, and he (Packard,) would accommodate himself to the appointment Jones might make. But Jones declined, saying that he would not canvass this county, and thought he would only " bush-whack " fiver it when Coi fax came back " through it. lie ha,s already made one poor apology for a speech in tho c ounty, at Maxrnkuckec, and about that he told Mr. Packard a straight out falsehood, saying thai lit Tas rot going to attend the meeting, and then went up and rehearsed his granny story about Packard not l'.uing in Starke county, and statetl falselv that ti e Democrats of Starke county were not going to support him. If he believed such was the case he woulu' be laying low, but be knows it is false ..nd he is whistling to keep his courage up. We 'idmit that there a few voters in Starke county who arc opposed U Packard, but fortunately for us, they ALL belong ta the Iilack Republican party, and we have never expected tbeir support. We know the Democrats of that county are all right, so "go in " feranny Jones, tue "uusiiwhackcr." The Great Storm on the Gei.r Coast. Accounts stdl reach us of damage anil Ions of life from the great utorm of Saturday, the 11th inet., which raged along the Ci ulf coast. 'Hie New Orleans True Delta, of the lfth, has accounts from Belize, which represent a large numbe r of vessels etranded or wrecked. On the plantations many lives were lost in addition to those already detailed on Friday Isst. On the Nairm plantation one negro was killed, and others seriouly injured, Threo children of Mr. Barr were kiled. At Grand Prairie fixteen lives were lost in attempting to cross the river in small boats. Among tliem wero J. Berowsand family, and Antonio Moustac and famils. Four miles above the Pannes, to the soutk - westh of the city, trie sail wonts rectnc.y mm coninlttidr awav. and eleven negroes with them. The Ions of a few lives at different noirits is civen. The amount of property destroyed ' jH impo?aiblc to estimate it must be immense however.

r. . . - , . . . , , , . uv i;iai luiscnouu oi iiATTiNSLT s in regard to M. A. O. Packard, is that he (Packard,) tried to extort illegal fees from a poor man. The facta Jire these : A certain Mr. Hagermax committed n assault upon Josem IIibbs, Jr. He was tried . . hefore II. McFarlaxd, Justice of the Peace, was . , ., , , found guiltv and fined. Packard prosecuted the . J ,, , . . case on hphnlf nf tli Stot.i n n 10 MV Tnnv. ' r soNwho was otherwise engaged. At the close of the trial he asked a docket lee as prosecutor, throwing off however, one dollar from what would have been allowed Mr. Johnson had ho prosecuted the case. The opposite couniel, (and reporter of this case to Mattingly.) objected to it, and . . . A. "' jus-; ociug u.jucciucu us io uie law m me , . . case, Packard at once stated that he would have i, , no controversy about it and that he would pive the . e ' . , , , , . man the foe, and also Ftate l, that at no late dav he , , , ' . wouia givo me jufuce cooa aumoriiy mat wnai ne ... . . . . ... claimed was the general practice of good judges of the law. During our last term of Court Packard procured o - - -1 from JuJ Stasfield. a Kood judge of the law, ! and, by-tho-way, a Republican, the following certificate. Further comment is unnecessary : I have always been of the opinion that the Trosecuting Attorney, prosecuting cases of assault and battery before a Justice of the Peace, was entitled to a docket fee on conviction, and that any other Attorney prosecuting the pleas of the State, in place of the Prosecutor was entitled to a likt fee. At least so far as ray observation goes that has been the practice. THOMAS S. STANFIELD. Aug. 17, 1?C0. Here is another certificate to the same effect, and signed by gentlemen whose legal attainments are undoubtedly as good as either Mattingly's or i hia reporters : In my opinion an Attorney prosecuting the pleas of the State in place of the official prosecutor, in cases of assault and battery before Justices of the Peace, is entitled to a docket fee upon conviction of the defendant. At least such is the practice witk us. JASPER PACKARD, J. P. La Porte, Aug. 18th, 1660. I concur in the above opinion. WILLIAM ANDREWS. Letter from Staxke County. For the Democrat. Knox, Starke Co.

Iu regard to the ute t mcnt of "Zeke" that "alter t'ie meeting adjourned, the speakers were marihcd to the cars, headed by a girl, beating the bass drum," ''Zeke" knew he was lying when be wrote it. The speakers wire nut marchi'dtn the cars. The young ladv referred to, who is the sister of tw o of the musicians, and is acconplMied iu mus'c herself, Mas requested by several ladies and gentlemen, at tho Howard House, to beat time to two or three favorite pieces of music, which she consented to do, j and the performance gratified and delighted all who heard her. Wc would now say to "Zike'' that he had better remain taro, as the brothers of the girl wdio bat the bass drum, are both good drummers themselves, and if they discover who he is, they will very likely take a notion to beat time on his carcass to the tunc of M the Rogue's March," "Go to the Devil and shake yourself," or some other piece equally fashionable and popular.

Tlie Deputy Marshals estimate the population of New York at over 900,000, Within the last eight years, Ireland has lost j one-tenth of its inhabitants by emigration The drouth has prevailed in many places in j the United States most severely this year.

The Elkhart Times says a man named Perry S. Beiden, hung himself in that county last w eek, from a disappointment of 'ove, it is thought. Tho Democrats of the 1st District of Michigan have nominated George V. N. Lathrop, of Detroit, for Congress. According to the best calculation now made from the census report the population of the United States is not far from 32,000,000.

A correspondent of the Alabama Argus, writing from Chicago, says that Douglas will carry Illinois by 8,000 majority, and Indiana by 17,000 majority. Lincoln will get Wisconsin by 3,500. The correspoupent of the Argus is too modest by half in regard to Illnois, and November will show that he is just about as far at tray iu his estimate of the vote of Wisconsin. At the last judical election, Wisconsin went Democraic by about 500 mnjotity. "Revolutions tievr go backwards." The Cleveland (Minn.)

A Few Gems. As Mr. Bright's people take particular pleasure, says the State Sentinel, in publishing our record before we had any adliation with the Democratic party, we take great pleasure in returning the compliment upon this opportune occasion. We have manv more of the eame sort in reserve. Read the deliberately expressed opinions of men who at the time they were claimed to be pillars in the Democratic church: JOHN FETTIT SPEAKS. I am devoted to free soil and free labor, and no vote of mine shall knowingly ever be given to polutc the oue or oppress the other with slavery. Slavery can only exist in a State or Territory by authority of the sovereign power of such State or Territory; hence, as it does cot now exit in any of our Territories, it cannot be carried there until authorized by the power exercising sovereign authority over the same. That power can only be exercised while thrv are Territories, by the Coi'jrress of the Unit cd States. TKE IMM ACCt'LATE FITCH 3r '.SETH. Plymouth. August 4, 149.

GRAHAM N. FITCH." We would most tespcctfully inquire whether Doctor Fitch found in Abraham Lincoln the abler membr, whose influence was greater than his, to introduce a bill to abolish slavery in the District of Cobimbia? Perhaps tliis. fact may account for the sympathy now extended to old Abe, and tho help given him in Indian by our "distinguished" Senator? A fellow feeling makes them wondro's kind.
