THE PLYMOUTH DEMOCRAT. J. G. OSBORNE, S. L. HARVEY, } Editors. PLYMOUTH, INDIANA :

TU OA V, OCT. I'd, lSG7.1"ur lihois will ho crowned with the fullest

VALEDICTORY. In consequence of ill health, and a press of business matters, the undersigned has concluded to dissolve his editorial connection with the Democrat. In so doing hc desires to return thanks to those who, for several years during the darkest days of the Republic, stool manfully by him in support of sound Democratic principles, He leaves his position with kind feelings to all, and takes this occasion to say that in the past in all he has written there is little he would change if he could. He has been ably seconded by Mr. Harvey, the proprietor of the paper, in his efforts to disseminate correct political principles, and leaves the paper in his sole charge with no fears for the future. J. G. OSBORNE. "Tliroilir the I'rti'Scnt So says Wendell Phillip, in the A?J.'Shtceri Standard. He calls for a policy of defiance on the part of Congress und the Republican party. The sayings of Phillips arc those of the great leader of the Republic in pirfy, ari l although they any seem a little premiture, they will become hc popular doctrine ( f lllack Republicat -ism.centu tl!y. The nation, hc says, has gazed "cn and seen Johnr-n in.-ult and defy Congress. Congress i. too stupid to u rulers t an d .r too ! puseilhniinous to resei;t thi inMjU. Han i out the banner of imp m;al suHrr-e and rebel disfVan; hisen.cnt on the outer wail says Phillips. We copyoelow a few extracts from the article in question: What shall we do? Press bravely on. Impeach the traitor of the white house. Menjwith white lips, who fancy themselves statesmen, cry "Oh, no. that will create sympathy for him aud wreck the party." Utter want of self-respect has wrecked tha party. nothing else. Tu bear blows unrcfistingly nny'l c clear duty f,r an imli-' vidual: it is death to a rartv. The nation ! jia. gaeu on ana seen Johnson 1 1 .1 Tl insuit and defy Congress. Men conclude that Congress is too stupid to understand or too pusillanimous to resent the insult. The panacea that Senators and (loveinors! propose now is, that we go on and iniitc more presidential insult, in hope that the people will jity Congress and hate .Johnson. It is a fatal policy. Such ty prisse soon into contempt. The old Whig party marched to its grave in the fond conceit that its patience would win sympathy. It found too late that the masses distrusted its foes but despised a whig. Nothing but daiing courage, gallantry, will win back por ular sympathy. Hang out the banner of impartial suffrage and rebel disfranchisement on the outmost wall. Throttle the President. Clean out the nest of uticlcjn birds the cabinet. Rally patriotism to the fr.-nt. The disheartening of Rail Run was never wholly cured till Crunt coved on Richmond Teach men to iort Ohio and Pennsylvania in the blaze of a fiercer onset. Kvcry other policy is death slow death. Slave masters despised the whig because they saw he f art d them. They respected the abolitionist because they saw he defied them. Republicans will find that the same feelings are at work now. As an eloquent western man says : "Wc have abolished hc skive. Wc l.arr aboh'shol th win- ." This terrible ruth senators are Ibrjetthg. The same policy of defence which saved us heretofore is our only reouice now. It will cow rebels alike in Carolina and Ohio; and it will teach, r illy tnd unite tl e reopie. No man doubts that the North really means to exact the full results of its victory. Act to day so as to convince the South that this u truer now than ever before. The Aineiicaii Fenian Prisoners. RcnQwel application u made to the Government to press the Rritish Government to a decision in the case of tho.c American Fenians whom it now holds in durance. This application is made under the supposition that the adniiuinistration has failed to act in the matter. From the proper official source it is lear led that the President recently referred t ic matter to the Secretary of State, who promptly communicated with cur Minister to Hnglund, instructing the h tter to lay the subject before the Rritish Government, am! ak for a speedy hearing and discharge of those prisoners against whom no proof of violation of law could be made. To this communication no reply has yct.bccn made. The Philadelphia Press says of Ccncra! Sheridan what Pvron said c-f the "rcat Sheridan : That ii -it nr.- fornud lr.it onn mm it m,;n.

The negro organ in Richmond, Va., edited by a very moan white, named Ilunnicutt, threatens tcirible things if negro suffrage is iut carried throughout the country.

On Thursday, Prof. Laird, of Wcstville, lud , lectured on the following topics : 1st. The advantage of classifying pupils, and the necessity of a teacher having a programme. 2nd. Ts c necessity of a teacher making preparation to conduct a recitation. "A. The duties of a teacher out of the school room.

Also remarks on the same subi same subject were i i it ir n .t i i madc by Hon. Horace Lvibin auu iiO. Jj J P. Tschcffeley. The Committee on Resolutions male the following report : Wiikrf.as, wc believe that it is essential to the proper progress of our educational interests, that teachers should meet and interchange their thoughts, plans and methods of teaching, asoften as convenient. Therefore, Het'tli-til, That we will use our utmost endeavors to have an Institute held in our midst at least once a year, and that we pledge to it our presence and best efforts to nuke it successful, and of the highest value to each of us.

From official sources it is learned that the case of Jefferson Davis will undoubtedly be tried next month, whether Chief Justice Chase shall preside or not. Mach party desires and expects .Judge Chase to hear the case, and there is at this time no good reason known that would prevent his presence, should there be no extraordinary delay in bringing the case before the court ; but as it is ext-eetod that the trial will last four or five weeks, thus running oTer part of the time of the Supreme Court, which meets on December 1st, it is barely possible that Judge Chase may not feel warranted in entering upon a hearing, lest he shall be prevented, meantime, from attending to imperative duties in the Supreme Court. Regal questions of the highest importance are prepared for judgment before the Circuit Court, which it is desired shall be decided by the Chief Justice ; but rather than the ease shall again be continued, both parties are represented as willing to Kiihmit the points to Judge IJndorwood, hoping to get them before the Supreme Court finally by a writ of error.

It is a preference that none who kuow the sentiment of the American people, who have seen it Manifested in many ways, iu private letters, and in political couventijns, will dispute. " We rejoice, in the name of the victorious Democracy, whw but the Cthcr day sent greeting to the Democracy of the nation that Ohio was redeemed from the rule of fanaticism, that she had vindicated the Constitution, and had arretted the bold career of the men who had been trampling on the rights and liberties of the people. In their name, we this day seize upon the honor of presenting the claims of Ohio's noblest son, Hon.tJcprge II. Pendleton, to the democracy of the country, as Ohio's c!o co for the high office of President of the United States. lie is not only Ohio's choice, but he is the favorite of Kentucky, who will send a full delegation for him to the national convention.

He :s, by all odds, this day, the strongest candidate in the northwest, and, wc have reason to believe, in the United States.

In three of ihc five wards the conservative ticket is f0 to 100 ahead. The negro voters arc prevented from voting the conservative ticket. In the Jefferson ward, at half-past V this morning, a colored man openly voted the conservative ticket. As hc lelt the polls he was assaulted by a mob of Ilunnicutt radicals, the mob threatening to hang him to the nearest lamp-post. He was chased from the place of votit g,and when the police endeavored to urotect him, the mob offered forcible resistance. Clubs were used on both sides for a short time, when the military came up the infantry with fixed bayonets, and the cavalry with drawn sabres. They charged upon and dispersed the mob. The ringleaders were arrested and lodged in the station-hou-e. Fear of the soldiers prevented any attempt to rescue them. No disturbance has occurred up to this time at any other place of voting. The tobacco manufactories and other places where nero labor is employed, are closed, the employes refusing to work until the election is over. lodies of troops are stationed at different points in the city.

At one time, Acting (lov. Raker had apparently a dear track for nomination, but it will be contested hCumback and Colfax, and the feeling is growing that the latter is tho most availa ble.
