THE OLD LIKE "TENDER-FOOTED'1

CONVENTION.

Judging from the remarks made ly many of the Old Liners in relation to the unfairness of the Republican convention the clique influence which was brought to bear on certain persons the pro-determined purpose of certain Republicans to nominate certain men and crush all opposition by right or might, induced us to expect ai least some little fairness in the management of their own Convention. We had expectcd to sec an open, fair, frank, democratic Convention—that no clique influence would be used that no under-handed games would be played that no secret machinery would be set in motion to thwart popular opinion and bring certain PETS beforo the people. We had expected to see the Old Liners of this county come up in the might aud majesty of a popular assembly and select men as their standard-bear-ers who had the voice of a majority clearly uttered in their favor. So much had we heard of the trickeiy the duplicity, and clique influence of Republicans, from Old Liners, thai we had almost forgotten the

and blindness of politicians. Doubtless some members of that body may have thought that all things were fairly and honestly done but the knowing ones, the clique members, the wire-workers, know full well that popular opinion was thwart

But alas, for the frailty

which were odious

and repulsive to all the feelings of freemen. The other branch led on by Douglas, advocated the government principles of our republican institutions.— This issue they dared not present to that Convention, for the views of Lew W allace & Co., would have clashed with those of J. E. McDonald & Co. The difference in their views was as wide as Heaven and Earth, and they dared not meet on a common platform. Neither branch had the manliness to stand up for their principles— like cowards they dodged the question— they skulked away. Shame, shame, upon those Douglas men who quailed beforo the threats and pewer of the Old Line tyrants. Henceforward you must forego all independence and become thc willing slaves of your tyrant masters! But there were still other elements at work there were old Whigs, and old Democrats, and some of each wing were aspirants for office. Esqs. Caniue and Gott, old Whigs, were each flattered with certain success, when at the same time, tho triggers were all set to defeat them both. Wm. Wallace and Ben

Misner, old Democrats—Misner was cut off without ceremony, and with,little concern as to the effect it would produce on him or his friends. Wallace the nominee (whom we admire and esteem as a man) has been Anti-Lecompton and Douglas, and opposed tho Administration in its Kansas policy—all outsiders could see that he was to bo the man for Sheriff.— But Gott and Canino were so blinded by artful fiutteries and pretended friendship that they hoped and expected thc nomination. Deluded men! you are the tools of a party who seldom place an old Whig in office. We come now to the darkest and most rascally part of the proceedings.— We allude to the controversy between Lee and Schenck. Let it be understood that

had tho office, at the close ofhi3 term, for two years that Sch.cnck is poor, in very bad health, has been as firm and as consistent in adhesion to tho party, as Lee or any other man. The tide of popular favor was evidently towards Schenck, and with any thing like fair play he would have had the nomination. Remember there was to be no resolutions passed candidates were to be asked no question, no test was to be applied. None excepting to Schenck—his claims clashed with those of John Lee and Schenck, though feeble iu body and borne down by long and severe iliness, must have the inquibitoiiul tc-.it applied by one Jesse McAlister, Esq He must know

OUO uesse

did to Schenck, wo verily believe that Wallace would have kicked him (as he doserved to bo kicked) out of the Court House yard. After Schenck had passed this species of inquisition, then went round the reports that he was off the track, that he had withdrawn, and of course the votes would be east for Lee. But more—we have heard it stated that when Franklin township was voting and stood 17 to 17, that Lee run around and brought up a man who slipped on to his side, but was at once recognized as not belonging to that township and ordered to stand back a second time he did the samo thing, and thus by the vilest species of trickery succeeded in getting the nomination. But why apply a test to Schenck and not to Lee nor to any other candidate? and ho the only man without support, whose health was failing and who absolutely needed it for tho support of his family? Is it fair, is it honest, is it just, is it democratic? Will the people sustain such intrigue and corruption? Can men sleep soundly with such spots upon thsir skirts? Can money or office or station hush the voice of an out-

tice

integrity, when they resort to in-

trigne and trickery to secure oflicc, wo can only say, beware! Trust not too far! Republican institutions demand and need officers of high-souled honor, of proud unflinching integrity, unspotted justice, unbending purity of character. Let such

Eloquence of the Bar!

Our whole community were much pleased on Wednesday of last week, at the able manner in which our quondam friend B. W. Hanna, 0/ Terre Haute, conducted the prosecut?on of thc State vs. Ihomas Keo-

and the Irishman, we understand originated as follows: Mr. Campbell, the father-in-law of Keeney, had a dog which the Irishman said had bitten him, and he would kill him. Harsh words were uttered —then followed the stab. Mr. Hanna, in his speech to the Court, related all the circumstances with as much minuteness as did Edmund Buik—tho circumstances of the East India Company—in his speech on tho Impeachment of Warren Hastings and then wound up with the sublime peroration of that great British Statesman, in his most eloquent effort against Hasting6 —but in still more eloquent language exclaimed, "itf THE NAME OF THE ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE OF INDIANA, we Call

L'orrcspondence of the Journal,

FRANKFORT, Aug. 4, 1858.

MR. EDITOR: Since the Attica Convention of the 22d inst., the Republican, published at this place, has been compelled, from temporary embarrassments, to suspend its issues, and consequently there has as yet, been no response from this quarter to the action vf that Convention. Lest further silence might induce a suspicion, that we are indifferent to the honor conferred on this county, in the nomination of Mr. COWAN, for Circuit Judge a brief notice of this gentleman, and his standing at home, might not bo deemed out of place.

Mr. Cowan is a native of this State, aud is now about thirty-seven years of age. WTas educated at Wabash College, was in the same class throughout his collegiate course, with Hon. James WTilson, and graduated at the same time, in the year 1842. Ho also graduated in thc same class with Mr. Wilson, in thc law department of the State Univerity, in the Spring of 1845 and was, -with him, licensed to practice law., by the Supreme Court, at the May term of tho samo year, when the most rigid examination was required—Judges Blackford, Dewey and Sullivan on the Bench.

Ever since that time he has been actively engaged in the practice of his profession in this county and has for years enjoyed the enviable reputation of an able and honest lawyer and should ho he elected, those who now know him, only perhaps as a candidate, will appreciate him as an able and upright judge.

The only office for which he has ever before been a candidate, was that of Common Pleas Judge against Judge Blake, during the spirited canvass of 18512 and it is not unworthy of note, as illustrating thc relative standing of the two men at home, that whilst this county gave an aggregate majority of over three hundred for tho Democratic State and Congressional ticket, Blake's majority over Cowan was only eighty-four aud in Jackson township, whero they both reside, W right's majority for Governor was seventy, whilst Cowan beat Blake sixty-five. No nomination could have given more universal satisfaction to the people of thi county and he will not only receive tho unanimous support of his own party, but has the most flattering assurances of a liberal support from the opposite party. And all that is

,»

necessary to warrant his success is the uni-

ted support of the Republicans throughout the district. It might not be improper for me here to refer to the fact, that tho present incumbent has attempted to create the impression, that "Tho Frankfort Bar" were all iu for his re-election as a "no parly candidate and it is to be regretted, that one or two of th3 Republican members of the Bar,-afforded lum a pretext for this representation. But this was done before Mr. Cowan was spoken of as a candidate, and I am now fully warranted in saying, that he will be supported by at least half the members of the Bar of this county.

It is hardly necessary to state that the insinuation of the Crawfordsville Review, of the 2th inst., that Mr. Cowan is a whiskey candidate, is simply false! No man has a better character for sobriety and honesty. The statement of thc same paper, that Honey-Crock township of this county, has been attached to Howard, is equally untrue, as lhe records of the county will show. CLIN ION

Call and seo his stock, it is fitted up in superb order. Mr. Philo R.

Telegraph Cable Successfully Laid!

ARRIVAL OF THE NIAGARA.

TRINITY BAY, Aug. 5.

The Niagara has arrived hero, having successfully laid tho Telegraph Cable.— The shore end will be landed to-morrow. Thc signals are perfect, and the succcess of tho great undertaking is now considered complete. STATEMENT OF CYRUS W. FIELD,

CHIEF ENGINEER.

TRINITY BAY, August 5.—The Atlantic Telegraph fleet sailed from Qneenstown on Saturday, July 17th, and met in mid ocean en the^ 28th of July. The cable was spliced at 1 o'clock p. M. on Thursday, the 29th, and the vessels separated—the Agamemnon and Valorous bound to Valencia, Ireland, and the Niagara and Gorgon for this plaeo, where the latter arrived yesterday and this morning tho end of tho cable will be landed. It is 1,988 nautical miles and 1,950 statute miles from the Telegraph House, at the head of "Valencia Harbor, to the Telegraph House, Bay of Bulls Arm, Trinity Bay, and for more than two thirds of the distance the watei is two miles in depth.

The cable has been paid out by the Agamemnon at about the samo speed as from the Niagara. Tho electrical signals are sent and received through the whole .cable pcrfect.

The machinery for paying out the cable worked most satisfactorily, and was not stopped for a.single moment. Capt. Hudson of the Niagara, Messrs. Everett and Woodhouse, the engineers, electricians, and officers of the ship, and in fact every man on board the telegraph fleet, exerted himself to the utmost to make tho expedition successful, and by tho blessing of Divine Providence it succeeded.

DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY.

Mr. Buchanan has asked and obtained from a Democratic Congress, ONE IIUNDIIF.D I AND FOUR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS for one year's expenses of his Adminirtration. Six years ago the government was carried on for less than half that sum, The revenues havo fallen off nearly one half, and the President and his party are running the nation in debt at the rate of sixty millions of dollars a year. By the time Mr. Buchanan's ad ministration ends we shall have a national debt to carry of nearly TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. Those who have the money to pay for these expensive amusements of the President should seo to this.—Ind. Journal.

TRINITY BAY, Aug. 7.-The most complete success has attended the laying of the Atlantic Telegraph Cable, and telegraphic signals are being transmitted through its entire length. It is unlikely that tho line will be opened for business for several days, and perhaps weeks-—delay being necessary to give the electricians time for a series ofexperiments.
