WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY q, I8i
A GENERAL RAILROAD BILL.
Tlio earnestness which many (it the
leading papers of llio Statu manifest on
thid subject, establishes the opinion tlmt
it is most heartily wished for by a ma
jority of tho people. Wo deem it an
eminently juit and proper movement
anil it is iiot saying too much when wc
' assert that all in this section, irrespective)
of party, grade, or condition, look to
" llio present Legislature for its passage.
' The benefits to accrue from such action
arc almost incalculable, not to ono par
ticular part of tho Common wealth but
to llio wholo, The ene-gies ot tho poo
plo havo been too long paralysed by
tho withering effects of our rigid sys
torn of railroading and there is no com
puting thn good which might follow
' wero tho b.ilti of monopolies onco
sprung. Situated as wo are, tho pas.
sago of a law granting charters to those
corporations that desire to act m the do
Tclopmcut of our resources, must eith
er nrouso our local priJu and activity or"
suffer the profits to pour into tho cof
fers ol those who woik f-jr our money
alone. " '
Should this bill coma before tho two
Houses this session, as it is reported it
will, wc shall expect nflirmatioii action
on tho part of our representative.
A NEW POLICY.
A rumor is current in Washington
that the President has under conidcra
lion a new plan of reconstruction based
upon "Impartial SufTiage" and "Univer
sal Amnesty," end that "it has been
moBt favorably received by the Cabinet."
It is to. bo presented by tho President in
bis message to the XL h Congress.
Ofcourso wo cannot vouch implicit
confidence in such reports, but thu pos.
sibihty is not improbable for all. The
life of tho Democratic Party, so-called,
is what "haunts tho spirit of their
dreams" The Chicago Times and oilier
of their leading journal i, havo prophosi
cd tho sinking of their craft and threw
them tho life lino of iicgro-suflYngu.
Slowly but steadily they arc boiu-jf haul
ed in. Yet it will not avail. They
cannot avoid the lee shore upon which
their rotten bark is drilling, She will go
to pieces and tho breakers of '08 wil'
sound a joyful requiem over the embed,
ded wreck.
, DISFRANCHISING DEMOCRATS.
The Legislature of West Virginia,
following the lead of its revolutionary
friends in Congress, Ins before it it new
registration law which is -intended to
disfranchise all the Djmoerats in that
bastard Statu. The sixth section is :
Have you at any lime since that
period, and during the late n bulliin. by
your conduct or conversation, opposed
the policy of, or the means used by,
the government of the United S ates in
suppressing said rebellion "
Go 1 ahead, gentlemen ; wo think,
perhaps, ono of tho best things would
be such an enactment whorever the rad.

question of right to an issue- of strong

THE HOME PAPER.
Mr. Eoiron: I havo often hoard it
remarked that it is extortion to charge
two doll.irs for a County paper, when a
city pnpor, containing raoro mattur,
aould bo procured tor kn money. This
is tho solo roiaon urgnd tor patronizing a
foreign press, simply because it is tho only
one that can be given with any show of
consistency ; and this is moro limgi
nary tha i real. Every other oonddura
tion yields an unmistakable preference to
tho Home piper.
Whilst your city paper miy be larger,
maybe printol with smaller type, and
thus mado to contain a volumes of matter
moro than can becrowdod into a County
paper, the supsrfljial observer soonis to
overlook tho important part, that most
of this gra id agrogato is d:al in !'cr
Much of it is local, in which a country
raider has about as much interest as ho
would have iu so much original Ile'orow!
Ono h lit is takou up with advertise
monts, to which you look in vain for
any reliable an 1 benchVtal information ,
whilst the advertisements in tho county
paper aro a source of groat usefulness to
tho business pubiio. Through thorn tho
oar. ful reader booomos acquainted with
the location an 1 biisiunss of all the lead
ing aulnnit enterprising citizens of tho
County.
Tho Marriages and Deaths of the
County paper are a fund of information
that every body appreciates whilst those
ponderous columns of the city paper aro
every whit as interesting as thus much
blank spaco 1
The difference of cost is sheer moon
shino. A single copy of any good city
paper costs $2, in advance an 1 20cts
postage besides, Truo,S30 wili procure
20 copies of tho Tribune, Times or Her
ald. Just soj and I vouturu the opinion
that 830, in advance,.' will procure 20
copies of tho Ukpuiimcan for the somo
length of time. So, make up your clubs
and s ivo tho postage, ami risks by mail
Hence I cwolu do that "more reading
for less pay," is a mistaken idea, and a
most mi.-enilily peuuiious delusion.
Those who make such frivolous ox
cuscs for supporting city papers to the
exclusion of the County paper, do not
seem to realize that they are paying
tribute to city enterprise, are building
up city inlorosts, ami are neglecting to
stimulate and support those homo enter
prises which are of such vit d importance
to us. '1 hey do not appear to reflect
what Greene County would do were
there no paper published at horC.iunty
S;'at. How much would land be worth!
How far would our county be known?
What would bu her character? Would
it not be very ineonvoinent to do with
out a county papei? Would it pay to go
to Pittsburg or Philadelphia, and pay
city pries to havo our leg il and other
neccsr-ary advi'ili-iug, and our local
interests alteiuli d to 1
I will not consume more space in tho
de-eussion of this siilj"et, and will close
tills article witli the language of one of
the leading and m ist prominent business
men of thu C nmtv. Said he, "I take a
half doz.iu weekly pipers. They all
reach ir.o by the same mail. I5.it I in
variably read my county paper first.
In my estimation tho local news is of
the first importance."
The Tri'ivnn noticirg tho municipal
election held in Wheeling. West Vir
ginia, on Jan,2S,says tin-Democratic can
unlate lor Mavor.togcthcr with the rest
.of the Democratic ticket, were, as usual,
elected; but it is gratifying to learn that
tho Democratic majority was this year
considerably reduced. Last year Mayor
Sweeney, out of an aggregate vote of
2.481, received a majority of 515 over
his Republican competitor! this year,
out of a poll of 2.421 votes or CO less
than last year he received but 191
! majority, a falling off of 324 votes. An
equal decreaso in tho Democratic vote
would next year elect the Republican
ticket, and put Wheeling in harmony
with the rest of the Stato, which at the
election in 180G again showed itself
firmly attached to the principles of tho
Uepublic.au parly, giving to tho Repub
lican candidate for Governor a majority
ofC.Oll. Thorn' were, in 1800, only
ten out of fitty-two counties which gave
a' Democratic majority. In five of the
ton Democratic counties tho Democratic
majority was less than ono hundred, and
iu nino it was less than three hundred.
It the Democratic vote in these counties
should fall off, as in Wheeling, the
number of Democratic counties at the
next election will be very small
..The 7 Wiide of tho 30th inst ,says that
in the' IIouso yesterday Mr. Williams of
Pennsylvania moved to strike Irom tho
Civil and Diplomatic Appropriation bill
the item providing for tho salary of our
Minister ut Rome: and Mr. Stevens
moved to add, as a reason lor so doing,
a protest against the recont denial in that
city of tho right to worship God accor
ding to tho dictates of their consciences
by American Protestants. Mr. Steven's
Atuendmant was practically defeated
the preamble being struck out by ayoto
of 05 to 32-

COLD BLOODED MURDER OF A UNION
LEGISLATOR IX TENNESSEE. '
Tho N.ashvillo 1'reu and rimofthe
1.1th instant contains tho following ac
count of a most atrocious murder, com
mitted by a a Tennessee rebeli
We wore overwhelmed with grief
last cvoning on bearing the intelligence
ot the briitnl assassination ot Dr. Almon
Caso, Union Slate Senator from Obion
county, Wust Tennessee, who was shot
dead at Ins residence a lew evenings
since by an assassin. Our present infor
mation is as follows: Senator Cae had
gono to a neighboring town. Late in
the evening a man rode up nnd called
fur hi in to come out. Mrs. Casu went
to llio door, and in .answer- to thu man's
inquiry, replied that ho had gono to
town. Tho man rodo off in thu direction
indicated, and met Senator Caso on his
return, with whom ho rode back. On
approaching tho house the nssassin pre
tended to depart, but immediately at'ter
wanVtwheelcd and shot his unsuspecting
victim dead, and mado his escape.
Senator Case was a good, brave faith
ful man, an advocate of progress, and an
enlightened public officer. He was nn
early friend of colored enfranchisement,
and il is worthy ot particular note that
he was in favor ot universal amnesty
and-allowing all citizens to vole, irres
pective of their political antecedents or
color. Hut his liocral views mado him
no less obnoxious to rebel malevolence
lie has fallen by tho hands of ono of the
very men whom bo was ready to pardon
and restore. Only a ftw days prior to
the beginning of tho present session bis
son, an exoel'ent. lad ot sixteen, was
shot dead while tho family wero return
ing from church, whero the youn;; man
had just, mado profession of religion.
Tho father was wearing the crape for
his murdered son at thu limoot his own
assassination.
Thus another name, full of honor, has
been added to thu mirtyrology of our
State tho name of ono who lived with-
j out tear, nnd perished without reproach.
