CONDEMNATION CALLED FOI?.-It bas
boen pretty well ascertained that over
300 white men in this County failed to
nttoud the polls in the 10th ult., and that
a like uputby in other Counties has
caused tiie defeat of Governor Perry,
our candidato for Congress. If this bo
tho case, and there is abundant proof to
substantiate it, wo know of no language
strong enough with which to condemn
and denounce their course. How can
freemen ever expect to be tronted as free?
men when they "lie supinely on their
backs and hng tho delusivo phantom of
hopo?" People that won't help them?
selves can't expect assit ance from others.
Aud just so long as a largo number of
our white men seem content to remain
at home on election day, and fail to cast
their ballots on the sido of right and
honesty, just so long will we continue to
bo oppressed and misrepresented.

Every Mian Should
DEAL with the merchant who makes a
specialty of his business, and by this
means
Refuse to Fay
Extravagant prices, which, like
Exorbitant Taxes,
Fall heaviest on tho man who works the
hardest. Tho "Indian Girl" having made a
specialty of domestic Cigars, has proven to
all who have called on hor, that in this line
she offers inducements that places her far
ahead of competition in prices, and is now
determined to run ahead in Havana Cigars,
having* rocontly received the largest assort?
ment iu tho city. Parties wiab ing to purchase
by the box will please send for price list.
Michigan Fino Cut in bulk, just received.

THE ORIGINAL
HOWE SEWING MACHINE.
THE beat now in nao. Challenges the
world in perfection of work, strength and
beauty of stitch, durability of construction,
easo ot operation, and great range of work;
makes tho same stitch on each eide, and is as
noiseless as any other shuttle machine.
It contains the material for its own repair.
It has loss wearing pointe than any other.
It gives off thread in proportion to the
thickness of fabric sewed, thereby avoiding
Blow motion over seams.
Tho presser foot is easily swung out of the
way, making it convenient to set needles and
adjuut work.
. All those who have used tho "HOWE" will
have no other. Give it a trial.
