CONGRESSIONAL

The Republicans of the 8th Congressional District will meet in the city of Lafayette, on

THURSDAY, THE 2GTII OF JUNE, next, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Congress, for said District.

The delegates appointed to attend the Convention, from Montgomery County, will please bear it in mind, and go to the Convention. As the nomination of a Republican Candidate for Congress in this District is a matter of grave importance, we hope no delegate will fail to attend. Let every body attend who can. It will be a mass meeting—a meeting of tho free people of the District. Lot them all attend.

&3T We call tho attention of our readers to article on first pa go, "A Chronicle of

Reuben" written by "Bildad the Shoeite." Our young Author is a native Hoosier, sad seems to be a Chronicle of truth—especially in thc article referred to. We wish him much success in his labors.

JtSsT The article by "Templeton" also appears on first pag?. He has formerly written under the cognomen of "Lone Star." His articles hereafter will be signod "Templeton." He is an excellent writer, and is well known by many of our readers, although he now hails from "away down South." His communications are welcome visitors to our table.

"Alpha," we cannot publish your

communication without your real name. Send it on if you want to become notorious.

J&r The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Iudiaisa, will hold its next Session at Indianapolis, commencing on Monday the 26th inst.

BBf" We have quite a number of communications on file, a few of which will appear as soon as we can find room. Some ona has said, that in this day of progress, writers would write, and printers would print—and we add that our printer says, he will not print every thing that is written. We would like to accommodate our correspondents, and will take pleasure in inserting their articles, whenever found worthy. When yon write, friends, write legibly, briefly, forcibly, clearly. Write what you mean and mean what you write, and be very careful to write yonr own thoughts and above all be brief.

Organize! Organize!!

We say again to tho Republicans of Old Montgomery that it is higli time for every township, district and neighborhood to organize. Many townships and neighbor hoods are already in the field and are doing good service for their country, but we are not well enough organized yet—a great work yet remains to be done, if we succeed in ridding our country of this miserable Old Line policy now cursing and blasting the fairest prospects of onr country, from Maine to California. All we need to be successful in the coming crisis, and inscribe victory on our banners next fall, is to thororoughly organize. We have numbers sufficient in our gallant land of Republicans to beat the Old Line, Black Border Ruffian party, if we could get them all mustered into service at the proper time, and now is tho time. It won't do to defer this matter any longer, a few days postponment might write the death-warrant of our defeat, and thus seal the destiny of tho glorious Republican party for years to come. Republicans of Montgomery County, there is no time to idle in the campaign that is now fairly begun. The struggle is for freedom in Kansas, and freedom from whisky, which now reigns like a demon tyrant all over our fair State. What do we need to arouse us from the lethargy which seems to pervade the ranks of tho Republican party What can be said that will revive us to a lively action—to an action that will tell for the future well being of our now bleeding country

Can the unmitigated wrongs of Kansas be presented in a more glaring and shocking light, than the manner in which tlicy have been unfolded to our gaze a thousand times Can the withering, blasting, milldewing effects of the whisky traffic, be presented to our minds in a more dark and I pestilential manner ." .y

The Black Line Border Ruffian party are in favor of perpetuating these bloody outrages, and establishing the dark and damI ning curse of Slavery on every foot of the

Territory of Kansas. They are also in fa-

vor of free whisky and all its attendant 'evils. In a word they are in favor of the

Devil and arc trying to set up his kingdom

fight. Let us then to the rescue, march! Let not an hour be lost in organizing thoroughly for the campaign.

Col. Lane in Lafayetts.

Col. Lane, on Saturday last, made an able and telling speech to the people of I Tippecanoe. Notwithstanding the inclemjency of the weather, Mr. Lane addressed a |la: ge and enthusiastic audience, numbering about one thousand of thc yeomanry of the

County. Since writing the above, we understand the Old Liners of Tippecanoe have given up all hope of carrying the election next fall. Col. Lane has turned the scale, no doubt, in that ill-fated County. He makes dead shots wherever he goes. Success to him. Ho has promised to visit Crawfordsville in a fow days with his artillery of death—we mean death to Old Liners. We will give due and timely notice of his coming through the columns of the Journal, and by posters. So look out! he will be here certain. Old Liners of Crawfordsville, can't you prevent his coming some how? Better have him arrested before he Comes. For the sake of yoii§^ear party and Bo wen, don't let him comff If he does, you'r £joners—but it doesn't make much difference, you'r goners anyhow. Nothing on earth can save you from an oblivious grave so be making your peace calling and election sure.

Teachers' Association.

The Teachers of Montgomery County, and others interessed in tae cause of Education, will remember that the Montgomery Association meets at Ladoga on the 30th and 31st of the present months. Let there be a general attendance. Ladies engaged in teaching will please attend. Re-

mem{

er the address of Dr. Fry, on Friday

evening, the 30th. Other addresses will be delivered during the meeting. The citizens of Ladoga will please tender us the use of a ^comfortable house, besides their usual hospitalities.

Sunday School Lecture.

We are requested to say that Mr. E. O. Hovey, Tutor in Wabash College, will deliver a lecture on Sabbath Scools, at Mount Prospect school house, one mile and a half East of Alamo, on next Sabbath at 10 o'clock A. M.

Mr. Hovey, is an experienced lecturer, on that subject, and we cherfully recommend him to the good people of that neighberhood, believing that ho will have a large crowd to hear him. Let all attend who can.

Polities In Kansas.

At a Republican Convention held at Lawrence, on the 3d, William Hutchinson Esq., presided speeches were made, and Messrs. Gov. Robinson, P. C. Schuyler, M. F. Conway, G. W. Brown, J. S. Emery, G. W. Smith-, G. W. Hutchison, S,N.Wood and Jamas Blood were appointed Delegates to the Phiadelphia National Republican Convention.

$8T The Republican Central Committee will meet at thiis office on Monday evening next, for the purpose of attending to

important business.

Arrest for Treason*

learn that thd President, in his anxiety to conciliate the pro-slavery party, hus determined to have Col. J. H. Lane, of Kansas, who is now speaking in this State, arrested for treason on a requisition of the Govenor bf Kansas. Whether the requisition has yet reached here we do not know, but it is certain that if it does come* the tools of propagandists in this State will clamor for the blood of Col. Lane, whose worst offense is that he advocated the admission of Kansas as a free State. He will be arrested, and will, of course, demand a release on a habeas corpus, and then we shall see what Indiana Judges think of the infamous political maneuvre that would condemn to death the man who has offended only in a free expression of his sentiments. Freemen of Indiana, the times are full of evil, and to you in part belongs the task of bringing back the day when free speech shall be no crime, and a man can work for the establishment of Free institutions without fear of being arrested and hung for treason.—Ind. Jour.

Go it Old Liners—that's right, arrest every man for Treason who dares to oppose the present corrupt administration. Hang every man, as high as Haman, who is bold enough to assert in the face of the Old Line party that Kansas ought to be admitted into the Union as a Free State. Call every Free State man a traitor, every preacher an "itinerant vagabond," and the Republicans, call them as black, as Erubus.

Brutally assault, tar and feather, all who stand "fernent" you. Pitch in, that's the motto, but we have a kind of an idea that you will find it some what of an up-hill business, to do all these thing? in this land of "live Hoosiers." If you must arrest Col. Lane, why go to work and do it, and don't be always talking about it, the sooner the better. Again we say pitch in.

ZSTThe Republican Convention, held at Chambersburg on the 10th, we are informed was largely attonded. Some 1500 of the bone and sinew of the county, woro present and took part in its deliberations. Set down old Fountain for S00 majority, for the Republican Party.

The following Ticket was nominated: For State Senator, ISAAC A. RICE.

Representative,

WILLIAM YOUNG. Treasurer, WILLIAM M. FRENCH.

Sheriff,

THOMAS LYONS. Judge of.Common Pleas, CHARLES TYLER.

This is a good Ticket, Repnblican to the core, and will be triumphantly elected in October.

Governor Robinson—Latest News. By the St. Louis Republican of Tuesday, we have the following latest news of Gov Robinson, whose arrest at Lexington, Mo our readers will recollect: "We learn by the boats from the Mis souri river, last evening, that Robinson,tho pretended Governor of Kansas, was still in custody at Lexington, and as the contin gency upon which his detention was based —that of his being indicted for treason had actually occurred, it is not likely that ho will leave there, except to go to Kansas for trial. Reeder, who seems to think that his bogus office of Delegato and Senator confer special privileges upon him, will hardly be so successful in getting oat of tho Territory, as Robinson did."

So, it seems that he was arrested not because he had been indicted, but because the "old liners" of Lexington believed he would be. Any pretext will answer for the outrages of those who aro working for the Administration. The 'Sentinel,' we presume/ will justify this sort of anticipatory arrest, as fully as it does the lynching of Al. Patrick.—State Journal.

Just as we have often stated, the Border Ruffians of Missouri,- and the Old Liners of Indiana, are precisely the same. There is no difference of principle in regard to slavery. The former are doing all they can to establish slavery in Kansas the latter are upholding and justifying every act of the Border Ruffians. When the Old Line party of Indiana speak, they speak in favor of the Ruffians and when they write, they write in their favor. In every outrage committed by these bloody villains the Old Line party of Indiana sympathize while on the side of the Free State men of Kansas not a word of sympathy escapes their polluted lips. Even when one of their own brothers is assassinated, as was the case with Mr. Patrick, they utter not a word of sympathy for him, but contrary to the natural feelings of men, they call him "an abolitionist,a villain,and a scoundrel, and justly deserves such treatment," for no other crime than that of telling the truth, and exposing the villainy of their brethren in Kansas.

Mr. Pleasant Chitwood, of Boons-

boro, Iowa, writes us that the Iowa Capital has been permantly located at Fort Desmoines. The State House will be built on the east side of the Desmoines river, and in one half mile of its junction with the Coon. It will be erected this season.— Mr. C. also informs us that he will attend to paying taxes, locating lands, Ac., in Boone and adjoining Counties.

We take great pleasure in recommending him to the readers of the Journal.

J&3T We received a communication from a friend of ours, who is now traveling in the "far west," giving a. description of his travels, which, by some means( is misplaced or, in other wards, cannot be found, or it would appear in this week's issue. He gives a romantic description of the Mississippi river on first sight.- Speaks highly of Burlington-, Iowa,and many other cities and towns which he has visited in that State. Says many portions of Iowa

are not very far behind our own Hoosier' you—when opportunity offers, we will try Stato. ,-t

Cadidatefor Sttperintcudant bfPublic InStructlon Declined.il!i Tho following, communication from John L. Smith for Superintendant of Public Instruction tendering his declination, appears in Monday morning's Indianapolis Journal. As it is a matter of great importance we hasten to lay it before onr readers, hoping the Central Committee will place as good a man in his stead, and that man we hope will be the present incumbent, Prof. Mills. We know of no man in the State of Indiana more iminently qualified to fill that high station than Prof. Mills, and we sincerely hope the Committee will give him the appointment.

We anxiously await the decision of the Committe. THORXTOWN, May 16, 1856.

J. D. DEFREES, CHAIRMAN CENTRAL COMMITTEE—DEAR SIR:—Permit mo hereby respectfully to decline the nomination given me by the People's Convention, held in the city of Indianapolis on the first day of May and also to state a reason or two for this declination. 1st. Although I have felt and still feel a deep irtlerast in the great questions agitating tho public mind, yet 1 have not at any time sought office, but have ever felt an undisguised repugnance to being a candidate for any political preferment.

Having, as 1 humbly trust, in my early manhood been called by Providence and the voice of the church, to the work of the Ministry, I cannot conceive that it would be compatible with my profession now to abandon that work for any consideration.

With the views above expressed of tho high responsibilities of the Christian ministry, and yet, with a deep sense of obligation to my highly esteemed friends of the Convention, 1 subscribe myself.

Yours truly, JOHN L. SMITH.

[The members of the People's State Central Committee will meet at my office, in this city, on next Friday at 3 o'clock P. Mi to fill the vacancy on the ticket, occasioned by the above declination. A full attendance is dosired..]

JNO. D. DEFREES, Ch'm.

Food (Mental) for the Old Liners—Bowen on "Human Nutriment." As our readers arc not posted on the particular quality of Literature the Count Royal of the Review feeds his readers, we beg the indulgence of our readers while we present them with the most high-toned and readable specimen of the stuff which he weekly stuffs down the open throats of his ignorant dupes.

The following is what Charley calls the mightiest effort of his giant mind, and his readers swallow it like young robbins swallow worms.

We present it to the intelligent readers of the Montgomery Journal, without note or comment, leaving them to make their own comments and render tho verdict accordingly.

A PRINCELY REQUEST. We arc exceedingly gratified to learn that our Board of County Commissioners have generously presented our personal friend and fellow-citizen, JOSEPH A. GILREY, with the little chateau which has stood for some years in the rear of the Clerk's office, in the Court House yard

This edifice having seen considerable service and fallinginto a dilapidated condition, has recently been replaced by a fine brick structure of more ample dimensions. In view of Mr. Gilkey's distinguished services in the cause of "education" and "Teacher's Institute," we know of no one with the exception of Judge Peter Smith, more worthy to receive this magnificent public gift. We were not present at the presentation, but understand that Mr. G. accepted the gift in a very appropriate speech, and remarked that after making a few slight repairs he should occupy it as his editorial sanctum.— Several gentlemen who have recently called to view the edifice, inform us that the repairs contemplated by Mr. G., are progressing in a satisfactory manner. The main entrance has been adorned with a pair of folding doors hung on leather hinges. Mr. G's. private entrance is through a circular trap in the floor, connecting with an extensive subterranean gallery. In view of the mammoth size of Mr. G's. head as demonstrated by Prof. Barker, and its adornment by a pair of Jackass ears recently presented by Mr. Tarbox, Esq., this entrance has been considerably enlarged. The apartment will be well ventilated and purified by the free use of lime and the Balm of a Thousand Flowers.

Previous to white washing, Mr. G. will at once proceed to copy the poetical gems that have for years been accumulated on the walls this venerable and ancient structure and submit them for revision to the bard of Alamo, who will have them appear under his own signature as original, in the Montgomery weakly Journal.

Visitors calling on our neighbor will find him seated on his ea6y stool, surrounded with the implements of his profession, and

a score of tailless devils under the immediate supervision of dot & go on. He will also keep on hand a large supply of old papers for the benefit of his guests.

AN EDITOR'S LABons.-^-Some toiling son of tbe press—that press which sternly squeezes the sparling cider and the rich wine of thought out of so many fresh minds and hearts, and then flings them aside too often as refuse,unnoticed and unknown, thus comments upon the life editorial: "How little do the majority of readers of newspapers know of the expenditure of thought, of labor of the head, and brain, and hands, which goes to make up that which ministers to their highest wants!— And also how marry truths, thought out with brain throes, pass unnoted, unobserved, even if not received vrith relentless hostility! Nevertheless, the true man must work, and work, too, in the martyr spirit contented with the thought that his mere relics, when he has laid him down in the dust, will constitute a kind of superstructure and basement, upon which the glorious and eternal temple of truth shall stand.

^"We are under a thousand obligations to our dear friend L. S., Jolliet, 111., for a huge package of California papers. Thank

and return the favor. ., i.

We are promised by one of our .able contributors a sketch of a love aceaie in which our neighbor Mr. Gilkdy was the principle hero. Do you take brother G. —Review.

Yes Charley, we "take"4—the privilege of informing yon that we have just completed arrangements with a gentleman in Chicago, who proposes giving us a brief history of Chas. H. Bowen, while acting ai "Sonpe" in a Chicago Theater. We have the first two chapter, which we will lay before our readers as soon as our "Illustrations" reach us.

jtSP'Godey's universally admired Lady's Book for June has just been received. It is not necessary that we should speak of the beauty and excellency of this Book, as we in connection with every other newspaper publisher in the Union, have often recommended it to the reading public.

The present number, like all former ones, we think cannot be surpassed. Any lady or gentleman, wishing to subscribe for this invaluable work, can do so by just calling up to our office, and we will take great pleasure in forwarding their subscriptions, or they can send foi it and get it themselves, on the following terms.

Mrs. Robinson's Statement* ST. LOUIS, May 13. Mrs. Robinson arrived yesterday, and this morning publishes a statement of her husband's detention at Lexington* It says Robinson is going East on personal business and denies that he knew of the indictment previous to leaving tbe Territory otherwise it does not differ materially from yesterday's dispatch.

A Lawrence correspondence of the Democrat, under date of the 7th, says indictments for high treason had been foUnd against Reeder, Robinson, Roberts, Lane, Deizler and other permiaent Free State men. News had been brought from Lawrence Missouri slaveholders that secret handbills were circulating and forces marshalling in border counties. He warned the people to prepare for defence.

The Case of the Fillibusters. NEW YORK, May 13. A motion was renewed in the U. S. Circuit Court this A.

A dispatch from St. Louis dated May 9th, says that a correspondent of the Re publican writing from Palermo, Kansas 5th, declares a messenger just from Frank lin, states that Jones is si ghtly better, though faint hopes are entertained for his recovery.

We wish the death of no man but at the same time we are free to say that we have no tears to shed should Jones be providen tially removed. He has earned the fate by which he has been overtaken. Border Ruffians was the rule by which he lived why should his death be otherwise than violent and sudden?—Chicago Tribune.
