After much persuasion on last Friday night, the lovely Carrie held forth in the Court House to a large crowd of Irrepressibles. Her remarks wcrcrccencd with enthusiastic applause when she portra3'cd in fivid colors the condition of the African in the Southern States. Her speech was undoubtedly the strongest that has yet been delivered here in favor of the Republican doctrine. Her denunciation of the Democracy was severe, while her panegyrics upon the candidates of the Republican party were magnificently flattering nnd caused a few of them who were present—" flowers'of modesty"—to blush at their hitherto unknown merits. Carrie is the goddess, the Magdalene, .of the Republican party in Indiana, and in the language of the poet, we may well exclaim

The Little Giant, the people's candidate for the Presidency, will be at Indianapolis on the 28th inst. The question now is, how shall we go and sec the great Statcs-
It has been resolved by the Rangers, to go in wagons, and for that purpose they have concluded to call upon all those who arc provided with.teams, to as.sitt them in visiting Indianapolis, and taking part in the ccrcmonics of that occasion. The plan proposed is, that every Democrat who is in the possession of a wagon and horses, to come to Craw.fordsvillc on the morning of the 27th, prepared with feed and provisions for himself and horses, for three days and, if he feels himself able, to bring provisions for as many as three men for the same lengtli of time, as there will be some who would be anxious to go but who have not the means to enable them to do so, unless assisted by our Dcmociatic friends throughout the county.
You do not want big wagons and teams but two-horse wagons, that will carry from four to five men comfortably, and the necessary provisions. Let the wagons be coven d, so as to make a place to sleep in at night, and so that you can enjoy your solves on your own hook. •,
As many of our friends from the countrv as feel wiling and able to assist in tli great cause of the people ruling, in the manner above proposed, will in the course of the next ten days, leave their names with any of• the following persons, viz.:

JST Jerry affects, great indignation at the charge of his party being in favor of negro equality, and intimates that wc lieWe would respectfully inform our neighbor that vulgar epithets and slang arc not arguments, and the man who.uses them only exhibits to the public his ignorance and low breeding. When wc cliargc your party with being in favor of negro equality, wc producc the evidence and that outweighs all your denials.. Here is the evidence, the witness, Abraham Lincoln- himself to corroborate our charge. This is the language lie used in a speech delivered at Chicago "Let us discard all the quibbling about this man and the other man—this race and that race and the other race being inferior, and therefore tlir-y must be placed in an inferior position—discarding our standard thatwc have left us. I.ct us discard all these things and unite as one people throughout this land—until wc shall once more stand up declaring that all men arc created free and equal."

Lane was a warm advocate of tho infamous liquor law passed bv the Fusion Legislature of 18 »U. wc will state that on the 13th of July, 1S55, there was a great Republican mass meeting at Indianapolis, of which Ilenry S. Lane was President. Upon taking the chair, Col. Lane made a speech, which is thus reported in the Indiana St :tc Journal
If temperance is to be made another issue, upon it wc will meet with a war to the knife, and the knife to the.hilt. Since coming (to Indianapolis) he (Lane) has learned the fears entertained ot the decision that might be
made
by the Supreme
Court. But if "that decision is 'agatnsi tho lawTit cannot arrest the action ot the'people A breath has made the judges and breath can unmake them Let the law, he made null, and Old Lineisui will hear a howl it has not heard for twenty years
Here it will be seen Col. Lane threatens the Judges of thc Suprenid Court and the Democratic'- party with his vengeance if they dare destroy the Maine Liquor Law. They did destroy it, and the question now is whether the people will sustain them for so doing, or by voting for Col. Lane, endorse that measure, and sanction his threats of vcn^eancc against the Supreme' Court for deciding it unconstitutional.

prbacluog, and jrpa^rili soon be called up-, on to'decide ^he destiriy of ydur State for. the next two'years,'and perhaps for years to come.
You have arrayed against yo.u an insidious and powerful political adversary—^he Black Republican party^a-party wherever it has achieved success has used its power for the purpose of arraying one section of the Union against, the other, and for advancing the odiqus doctrines of "negro equalitya party that has shown itself capable o£ resortingrto any means, however disreputable op dishonest, to:succeed a party whose political record in Indiana is stained with election frauds and official perjury committed in their unholy efforts to grasp political power a party that is confessedly in the minority in our State, and always will be when the issuers tried upon its true merits, and which only hopes to succeed by the divisions in our ranks.
It is with such a political organization you have to' contend at the Octobcr election. Are you willing to yield up the contest and.pTace the affairs, of the State in its ln^ds? Arc you willing to carry on an unnatural warfare, among yourselves, and thus, by your divisions, suffer this arrogant, intolerant and corrupt minority to succeed in grasping the reins .of State Government?
Wc have State/Congressional and local tickcts in the field,—good men selected by the whole party, most of them nominated before any division discloscu itself in our ranks, and all without, regard.tp.individual preferences on the Presidential' -question. These men have the right to cxpcct an holiest ami faithful support front all Democrats,. disregarding any" divisions or dissensions that have arisen subsequent to, or. even prior to, their nomination, because the. honor of .all Democrats by the usage of. our party, is pledged to them, and that pledge should be faithfully redeemed.
Let us then unite together as one party and for the time lay aside our family quarrels and present a solid unbroken front in our State election, and drive back once more the cohorts of Black Republicans and achieve a: victory for the Democratic party and the whole party a victory which can not be claimed by any wing, but that shall be due alike to us all, in-the name of a united Democracy/over our common enemy, the Black Republican party. Believing that the triumph of a party, such as is the Black Republican, based upon sectional issues and geographical divisions, would endanger the peace, prosperity, and even the perpetuity of the government, wc call upon all conservative citizens to aid us in its defeat, both in its State and general organizations. Wc regard this the dut.^ of all who desire to maintain the Constitution and the Union as it is, as handed down to us by the patriots who framed and ccmeuted thcin, a-.ul under wlrch \\c h.i\e become a powerful and prosperous nation.

HOW IT STRIKES A NEIT1UI,. The following is from the New Harmony Advertiser, a paper neutral in politics
There is one thing wc can not understand. The Republican speakers, as well as the papers, as a general thing, declare that Mr. Douglas is not in the racc—that he cannot, in any contingency, carry a single State and yet he is the very man they denouuee in. the strongest terms. If he is not in the way arid cannot get an electoral vote, it would be an act of maguaniniity to let him alone. If he is as they say he is, whj'.not let him slide, and direct their efforts against their more formidable opponent Mr. Breckinridge, instead of eulogizing him and his wing of the party

After- marching through the streets, a meeting was called at Market Square.' The meeting was ably addrcssedJby Col. Williams, James Young,
Esq., of Benton Countyand Mr. Myers, jnXki-man. Notice wasigivenfthat a pole was to.be raised on South -street, near the residence of Owen Ball. The Douglas Rangers led the way, .headed by the celebrated Pickards' National Band, and an immense crowd sopn.assembled on South street, and.the pole, with a beautiful flag, was .soon ercctcd. Loud shouts were made for speeches. Leander.McClung.of Cl.intbn,.county* the Democratic candidate for Representative in that county, was called to the stand, and made an eloquent and enthusiastic speech. Judge Blake -was next called, and closed the meeting in an effective and powerful appeal to the people in belialf of Judge Douglas, the nominee of the Democratic-party, and the great Doo-ti-inc of Noii-tntervention on the subject of slavery. The crowd roared—it was more than applause—during the speeches and adjourned at about 12 o'clock, amid the greatest enthusiasm.
Before daylight the masses commenced pouring in, and by ten o'clock every avenue and street was thronged. The Douglas rangers were on the strccts-again, in full force, with a large increase in.numbers and received the delegations as they came in on the different railroads. At 1.1 o'clock a procession was formed, .under the charirc of John Dauphin, Pat Tobih,- Milcc Walsh, John 'It.' O'Mara, and otlicrs.— Capt. Ewing's company of Douglas Rang-' ers presented a beautiful appearance,'rind marched in fine order. The Rangers lrom Crawfordsville, under the command of Capt. Morgan, were finely "uniformed, and went through their orders with the precision of trained soldiers. They made a plendid show, both by day and night.
The innneiisc procession headed by the Lafayette Brass Band and accompanied by Pickard's Martial Band whose music is unsurpassed, anil the Band from Grccncastle reached the grounds in Stockton's Grove at 12 o'clock precisely. The crowd seemed to be already on the grounds, the su« irar irrove was black already with masses of people. E. M. Weaver, Esq., Chair
was an unanswerable argument for Democratic policy and went home to tho hearts of the people. Mr McDonald, was once the Representative of this District in Congress, and had for his competitor in the contest, 11.Miry S.

The Col. made a brilliant speech of over an hour in length, and it told upon the crowd he exceeded tho anticipations of his warmest friends. Judge Picrson of Illinois, followed Willson" The Judge is an old war horse of the Democracy of Illinois, and strikes hard blows his speech was warmly applauded. Next came Holler theGornian Orator ot Dayton Ohio. Mr. Holler is not only a very able lawyer, but an orator and thinker, his spccch was able and effective. He spoke in English and has a remarkable command of language.
Mr. Seidsticker of Indianapolis, also spoke for a short time in an able and eloquent manner.
The old Brass piece of Carrol, Dr. Stewart, was loudly called for and made a short and effective speech which was loudly applauded. The Dr. is always at home in a Democratic crowd.
The crowd, after listoiming attentively -to all the. speeches, adjourned with nine cheers.for Douglas and Johnson. The marked feature of this meeting was, that there was a true and intense enthusiasm. It was the index of the popular heart.
There was a grand torchlight procession in the evening, in which the Rangers from Indian: polis, Crawfordsville and our own city participated.—Lafayette Daily Herald.

DEATH OV t'Ol" AI.I.IO .11.% V. AVc siuccrcly regret to announce the death of Col. Allen May, a geutlcman who was well nnd favorably known to the citizens of Indiana. He was, we believe, a native of Kentucky, and from thence emigrated to Montgomery county, in this State where lie resided many years. lie was a blacksmith, and pursued his trade there for a long time. In 183- lie served a year in the Black Hawk war in a corps of mounted

bsc-
.piently a Lieutenant Colonel in the Fifth Regiment, of Indiaua volunteers, which position lie filled with credit to himself. Aftcr his return from Mexico lie was elected
Agent of State, succeeding M. G. Bi.gl t,
Esq., in which position lie served one term. He then removed to this city, and engaged largely in beef and pork packing, and baiTkiii". These operations turned out unsuccessfully. For several years past lie struggled toovercome his embarrassments, and finally determined to remove to Washington Territory with the hope that in a nc°w country he might find a reward for his energy and enterprise. lie sailed from New ork on the 20th of June
for San Francisco from whence
lie wrote to his family oil tho l'»th of July. While traveling in a stage coach near Ruckville, on Smitli river, lie" was attacked with sinking chills. lie stopped at the house of MiCD. C. Lewis, formerly a citizen of this State, fro in whose family be received the kindest attentions, lie died on Thursday. the 19th of July, at half-past 9, p. m., after two days illness. He married a daughter of Mr. Allrcd, of this city, and lie leaves an interesting family. Wc understand that his family wore just about leaving Michigan City, his late residence, to join°hini in his new home, as they received the news of his demise.
Col. May did not have the advantages of an early education, but lie possessed strong native "sense, with untiring energy and industry. These qualities, with good habits and fixed moral principles, gave him an honorable position amoiig his fellow-citi-zens. A sanguine temperament led him ever to look forward with hope ami upon the bright sidj of life. 11c had many friends who will receive the news of his death with unaffected regret.—State Sentinel.

The Rome Sentinel states that Mr. C. C. Coe, of that village, is constructing a monster balloon, which will be completed in a short time. Wc quote the following

It mil thus bo mm that Mr Coe ha3 made aud prepared his balloon on the largest scale, and is making ample preparations for a splendid exhibition and ascension. lie now intends to go to St. Louis, or some city West, to make exhibitions, and endeavor to find that easterly currcnt in which he is such a firm believer and which has had many seekers.

four of which have now expired. He has also been presented with several purses, which amo.up.t_, in ^the aggregate to nearly or quite $10,000. "r This', added to the sum he Drought from England, the result of his exhibitions there, will make a sum not far short of $25,000. This short exhibit ef the finances of the two great fistic heroes of the country, will demonstrate the fact that both have money in abundance, and neither need wait for friends to back him when he chooses to enter again the magio of the twenty-four feet ring.
Heenan has been ever anxious to press another encounter with his old conqueror, and Morrissey is the one who has held off —doubtless he has becri making too much money, this summer, to care to leave his business'and devote two or threo months to severe training. And, at present, it SGP.n*s that ITccnan'o WltD Messrs. Wood & Nixon will bind him for two months longer.
As soon, however as this- period ha» passed, the challenge from,Heenan to Morrissey will positively appear. The sportins1 world may look for it by the 10th of November next. It will be immediately accepted by Morrissey, and both parties will then go into active- training, although it is true that cveu now both IUCU are in training.
By this assertion wc do not mean to say that they have given'theinsclves up to thost? preparations which arc necessary for a bat-tle-so toughly contested as.this one will'be^ but Morrissey, while at Saratoga, has beeiv in tho habit of talcing his regular exercise on the little trotting course at that place, and has been for the last three months accompanied by a inan who has acted as trainer, and with whom Morrissey has had and still does have, a set-to every morning, or at such intervals as may be convenient.
In conversation at Saratoga, ono day last week, Morrissey was asked: "Shall you light Heenan again?"
He at once replied: miM "I certainly shall, and I shall Kcli him, too."
He went on to say that lie wanted tho challenge to come from Heenan, ns llecnan having been-defeated by Morrissey, ought, of course, to issue the defiance, lie-said that he would at once accept the challenge, and, added he, "If you've got any money to bet on the event, put it on me, and I'll win it for you." He continued "I am confident that I can lick this man. Sayers would have licked him easy, if he had

Morrissey is full tif confidence, and wail's only as ho *ny.-'. 01100 more to face his old antagonist 011 the turf, to teach h!u» that he is still his master. Morriswy has ninny friend.-', who are equally confident with himself, and who,'with him, will stake every dollar they can raise 011 the issues of the fi'dit. Experienced fighting men also declare their belief that Morrissey will wii» the fi"ht, and they found their assertion on the same theory that is propounded by Morrissey, that .Morrissey can stay longer than Heenan, and can take all the punishment his adversary can inflict, and can then go in and lick him.
Like Morrissey, Heenan expressed tho most unbounded confidence iu himself.— Indeed, he looks upon the battle as already decided, although he knows too well the temper of his valiant foe to hold him unduly cheap. Confident as Heenan isr he will throw away no chance to secure tho victory. He will train with the utmost care, omitting no precaution to bring him-
There are 8,700 yards of cloth in the balloon over this is the netting, weighing 900 pounds. The balloon when inflated is wilj probably act on the next occasion. 208 feet high, its diameter 118 feet, and to fill it requires 1,731,000 cubic feet of gas. The cost of balloon gas in some localities is $2, and others less ordinarily $2 per M. At that rate it would cost over S3,000 to fill it. The car and basket are 3U£ feet iu circumference and 13 in diameter, and made of rattan, and arc to be carpeted with Brussels carpet, and scats are to be oil the inside similar to an omnibus.

This man has proved himself a thorough master of his business, and knows the physical requirements of Heenan better than any man alive. Of course, at this early ilay the seconds and their assistants or the great day are not decided on positively, though, we believe, there is little doubt that James Cusick and Ed. Price will officiate fur Heenan, and Frank McCabc will, doubtless, be his umpire. When these two men met before Morrissey was seconded by Australian Kelly and Dublin Tricks, neither of whom
