Ol'ESLXG TBE CAMPAIQS The Jacobin candidates for representative from Marshall and St Joe. and Marshall counties have opened the campaign in the must startling manner. Evidently not possessing general infer mation much to discriminate between a

of a single string, an 1 tliat string is county affairs," "only this and DOthing more." After au execsaive amount of mental labor, (perfectly wonderful in them) they have arrived at the conclusion that the taxes of Marshall county are too high ! That the por centum of Marshall county is higher than that of LaPorte, St. Joseph, Elkhart or Kosciusko ! And while they do not attempt to show how they as members of tha legislature will remedy the evil, they insist on the votes of taxpayers ''because this u thus.'' Truly a wonderful argume&t, and a wonderful pair. They present facts and figures to shew w PaJ" enormous taxes, and without a figure now at our disposal in reference to the subject J -tri Iii. .i-i V - m .1. .. 11 mm mm -.41 we eenturs the statement that Marshall eolleet8 less eoimtl ts than either La - Pirt.

Millions of dollars! have been thrown away on the impeach-j ment farce; the freedmuu'i bureau is made more expensive instead of being abolished; the standing army nas not been reduced, and in no one thing has an action been taken to lighten the burdens of the tax-payers j to restore the government : to render tbo fundamental law of the land upremc, or to promote tho happiness of auj oiass oi pcop.c save omce-nolding and i i .... .i omee-asptriog Jicobins and ncaroes.

GRANT AND COLFAX VS. JEWS AXD FOREIGNERS." "Abt. IT. Which is the tarty of rational Liberty and progress?" Continued. Under this head I shall include both

the first and second of 3Ir. M.'s continued articles! The first was devoted to the gathering ; raJB generated by the enlargement of the ' terrible word humanism." No new argument was produ ced, but a strenuous effort upon his part j was made to draw to a focu? such rays and only such as would mostly conduce to thc establishment of his common will the ory upon the bais of humanism." The common will theory was a trick to induce his readers tu believe the phvsical and mental equality of races, and that the white race has no pre-eminence over the ne - gro,who "must vote for, and be voted for" and hold office in common with the white U)aa. We are ncvr n0 onor i ft t . , the meaning of Mr. M.'s doctrine, and ifaes the radicals concur with him we arc I coufirmc'l ID the opinion that he proI 1 1 " - . . . njuisates ra'Ucaiism as it trulv is. - Kadi - cai8? generally, arc too ant to adopt a ?purious .' tyle of oratory, the end of which i.J whtn their cause is such that i cannot bo supported even by special fallacies to say something, when there is in fact r.othI ; A v : ,1 : il : l"6 a w ie ignominy of being silenced. ' To this end", says Whately in his Elements of Rhetoric, "thc more coutused and unintelligible thc lan-

nage, the better, provided it carry withjPk of the territories until they became

lit the appearance of wisdom and of being ! something to the purpose." Had Mr. M.'s I article the resemblance of profound wisdorn, aud being something to the purpose, we might cite it as a fair specimen of spurious oratory, but being deprived of such resemblance it comes under that kind known as "Utopian oratory.'1 This, then, I' ll 1-11 . -. . . r . n is the kind of oratory Mr M. has referenee to when he says "tbo genius of the republican party is to build up the frame of their constructions from below, from primary principles." That is, thc republij can party, with a view to deduce fact from primary principles, adopts Utopian oratory ; thus it follows that in all their reasoning they select Utopian assertions fr the foundation ol their constructions.'' Hence they commence with vision and Buss end in vision, la a matbcmatical problem an error at the cmmencenieut will lead to error ad infinitum. So in argument, if che primary principles are Utotopian the deductions will be Utopian as! infinitum. ; Jt seems, says M., ' the dem ocratic party is rather inclined to construct irom above (i'Aoi Thai m the rfcfnoCTtttio party -4 dedaeef there comnionces with facts lerefrom principles that ad Uit 0f practical application. They k that which men most seek for are jrcncral r.,'! i;,,:,, . iAMt.A. ro nnrnn j i uukiuic nv..iij-i ni wauaca auvj 1 rf!.rfu 7'ir ar. tit tlio Sha11aaC xrliit ! . I : i , V '. 4,. II. ,-:m t a 'priori argument and leave to you the Utopian, and arc glad that you do not misunderstsod our method. In pursuance to Mr. M.'s request I would with pleasure write ray thesis in (Icrman if it a J were possible to have it published in that language, but for want of (lerman type and a German compositor I am obliged to use the English laoenace. It lias been ! through the request of (lerman citizens ol this place that I have undertaken the reviewing of Mr. M's 44 assertions," and to long as my thesis written in the English language meets their approbation I presume it will so appear. The last article written by Mr. M. is characteristic for its veracity and moral ideas, lie argues that ' the children of' while emigrants were sold into slavery on arririag at New Orleans"; that "no free nce;ro could .o soutli without being sold into slavery''; that "slavery was thc cause of Texas separating from Mexico' Thus you see the radical jr is not content to lot thc dead eareass of slavery alone, but must resurrect it that they may have sjouictUn to harP bout Ia short Mr. M. wnuM imPreM il uPon hUl nst.tuents that slav. ry is still the issue of the day if he could but mask himscll more f illy. Slavery is dead and no democrat wishes to see it revived. They are cognizant of its evils and influence in a free country. Then why, Mr. M., argue a subject which exists but in name? No one can be benefitted by discussing it and I would not notice thc l"i"ts allude 1 to were it not to .how h 0W grossly you nave ausreprcscmea tnem. mm ... .... By white emigrants is to be understood Europeans; then American slavery consisted of Europeans' as well as Afrieans, Europeans were sold as slaves, tlie supreme court decided the the European a property, it said tho salve-holder might take to territories' his European slaves. .Such arc thc conclusions which must follow Mr. M.'s assertion, lie cannot deny them, but, another radical writer who had not lost all honor fur truth verifies thc statement of white ilarery by saying " so white at least as to pass themselves off as sui h," thus in a word he denies European servitude, and had Mr. M. examined carefully tho civil code of Loaisiana he would not havo vento ofhu1 uIuora, J d ideas" iu New Orleans.

being sold into slrvcry is another of his popular ideas. According to the census of 1850 the free negroes numbered ia the slave states 228,138, and in the free states 100,116,

making an excess in favor of the slave j states of 32,022. Why this excess, Mr. II. ? According to your position there ! would not have boon any free negroes in the south, but unfortunately for your case j we find 32,022 more there than in your free " America." Did you not know this

when you penned your assertion f Or i 1Ä tne OeautlUll little city oi .Sterling, estihave you willfully misrepresented the case? j ud t contain six thousand inhabitants.

I am inclined to the opinion that youlilie streets arc like those of too many

could not have beeu so ignorant of the census of 1S50 as to have committed the error. Then we conclude that you did it i on purpose. This is the way you propose I t0 build your construction, is it ? Had ! you read the declaration of independence of Texas at Golliad.Seotem - ' by the people 1 ber 20, lo5, you would not have said of ' Texas what you did, because you would I have learned that slavery w.;3 the cause of ! separation. What object have you then 'n tnat self-assumed style of making many I I J T T -i ' assertions ana proving notnintr. now uo you suppose to inspire your readers with confidence iu you by such allegories? I ' am convinced that an intelligent German accePt the truth from au American citizen before an untruth from a foreigner So keep on Mr. M., you will soon have many disciples to your lofty moral teachings. Mr. M. dwelt to some extent ou the right of congress to legislate for the peoit is upon mis principle tue radi cal? claim tlie to legislate for the lsoutn- They regard those states that weio in reueuion as territories ueionging to the United States; Now for argument! let U3 admit this to bo the case; that is regard those states not as state-, but as I : i. -lit . i i . - m ' territories belonging to the United States, n.-. - .

It is difficult to explain this aetion upon any other hypothesis than that they intended no such power to be lodged iu thc federal government ; for it cannot be rapposed that t'ipy were o fond of imnheationa as to strike from the frama of ,v . . . tu u'j si n ucu l w ii icn lucv vier prepariuK 1 1, M.l M L.m. ,..

In thc next place he ues rsp. as a Latin abureviation ; bence we regard it as abbreviated from thc Latin ajord rcspi putting off. The word "aaof does not sound LatlQ-bke.

No doubt thc writer meant the Latin noun causa cause. " Radicali" of radicalism comes nearer being Italian than Latin.

For tho Dixncr.AT. NOTES BY THE WAY.

NUMBER II. Tn our former article we proposed to give some further notes, commencing with the village of Nelson. A short distance west from that place the Northwestern road crosses to the north side of Rock river the river at this point running : nearly cast and west. Three mile3 fur- : ther WC5t on the nrth side of the river, other wesrern towns, too narrow. The county scat was formerly there, but the Morrissouians were rather too share for the Sterling boys, and got it away from them. Sterling contains some seven or ! ciht churches, and a most magnificent ! whool-house which cost the sum of for-f3'-fivc thousand dollars; the old court hou86 is uted as a war(1 school-house. The c ex'en-'S along the nvsr some two or three miles. IJeiore thc rail road was I built steamboat came up to this point, and : it was naderatood that the east end of the town would be thc business part ; but when the rail road was built, the denot a was located a mile or more west of the steamboat landing, and business left the upper part of town, cr nearly so: since .11 . . then steamboats nave ceased to run up as nigh as this place. On the south s'ule of the river oprosite 3terlins a little rillase has anrnnir nn Tiuegn i.as sprune up which is called Kock Falb. It has some thivtr lmii.-nu n 1 .(V.r. 1 . J n . a large mitten factory in whirh it is proposed to furnish employment for from six . . i . i i l .1 i ty to one hundred girls; there are also boyeral stores and groceries, and a fhurin mill is being erected. The river at this point IS Said tO be eighty or ninety rods . t , wide. Ihere is a dam across thc rinr nt umv,i XIIV.IV 3 1 USUI ! . art of t wn I the lower part Ot town. J he W ater-powcr is excellent. There are some fifteen or sixteen different nulls and machineries, at this point, propelled by water, and prentrations are beinc made for several others. A little below the dam ia au island of some two or three acres, with a bridge ex - tending to the main land. We heard a capital joke while there. It seems there is a lodge of Good Templars at Sterling, who have different rules and regulations fioni many other lodges, as it appears from j the punishment they inflict on members who violate their law3. One of the order last spring got very thirsty, and concluded he would imbibe a little. As soon as it was ascertained that this was the case, his brethren marched him through the streets to the music made by cow-bells and tinpans, down to the river and ducked him eovcrcl , and told him to ' go and sin no more.'' From this point the river hears southwest and enmities into the MississioDi at . . . . Kock Island. Some fifteen miles west of Sterling ia Morrison, the county Feat of j tho tavern is cow used for a military school. From Sterling to Fulton the country alternates between dry and wet prairie, the latter predominating n;ir 1 Fulton; at this point llacine road crosses J the Northwestern. About three miles be-1 j low Fulton the rail road crosses the Mississippi, which, at this point, is said to be three-fourth or a mile wide and seventyfive feet deep. There is an island ;bout midway in the river, over which the road ; runs. Crossing that part of the river west of tin aiand is nn iion span in Uu luidt 1 1 to K a!j InrnoH ,v Iotdi flu the west bank of the river is the city of Clinton,--contains six thousand inhabitants is well laid out streets aro broad and ruu at right angles. We understood that Clinton and Lyons had taken up, or or were about to fake up, their charters, consolidate into ono city and have street cars run from oue place to thc other. Wc saw several steamboats ploughing through thc "boisterous deep," and there were a great many rafts of pine timber and lumber lying in thc river. Wfc visited some of the saw-mills OU the river bank which forcibly reminded us of a machine which was said to be invented for thc purpose of dressing sheep- The individual who reported that he seen '.he machine, said that the sheep, after beiag killed, were thrown into a kind of sink and immediately disappeared. Afterwards, in walking around thc machine, he discovered that the meat name out cut, well cooked, and ready for eating, thc wool came in broadcloth, the bones into buttons, and tho tallow into candles, etc. At tho mill referred to the logs were drawn out of thc river into the mill, and the first process was to cut them into the desired lengths; they arc thou thrown on a carriage where they hae a set of gang saws; once running through will pit pure thc log lor turning down, 1 . .1 ;i ..11 1 d .....titer -Om i. .11 into luu, ber -aians are asuue mw iimiog 01 saw

Hands Off. A good story is told by a New Orleans paper, of an individual who presented himself to the chief of the police, with a loud complaint of certain boys j la e llablt ot flowing stones into his ; house- One, he said, had only last eve- : .1 a I ninS 8nick his daughter on the breast. j Was tlie J'jUDS Iady badly hurt f inquired the chief.
