The Exclusion of Negroes from the State. In the Indiana Legislature, on Tuesday the 20th day of November, 1865, Mr. Buskirk read a long argument against the repeal of the 13th Article of our State Constitution, which prohibits negroes from coming into the State. His argument was intended as presentation of the Democratic side of the question. Mr. Buskirk classified his reasons and arguments as follows. We copy his own language: 1. The two races can not live in harmony. 2. If an inferior race live in connection with a superior, history shows that the superior deteriorates to the level of the inferior. 3. The presence of any considerable number of negroes in the State, would bring on a war of races, and result in the extermination of the degraded race. 4. Being degraded, the negroes will contaminate the moral atmosphere. 5. Amalgamation is sinful and wrong, repugnant to virtue, and its prevention will be impossible, if any large number of negroes come into the State. 6. Negroes are unfit to be admitted to social equality. 7. The experience of the past demonstrates that homogeneousness is necessary for the happiness, prosperity and power of any people. 8. The government of Indiana was made by white people for the benefit of the white race. 9. If negroes are not excluded from the State, the South will send her crip-

pled

and worthless negroes into the North, to which they would be thus invited. 10. Industrious negroes would compete with white laborers, compelling the latter to work side by side with the former, which would tend to the degradation of labor. 11. The granting of political rights would impair free election. 12. Our soil and climate are not adapted to the status of the negro. 13. Justice, humanity, philanthropy, and christianity demand the separation of the races, and the colonization of the colored people.

Thirteen propositions containing more sophistry and nonsense could not be written out by the most experienced sophist the world ever produced. We propose to review them seriatim: "1. The two races can not live together in harmony."

Pray, why not? What is there to prevent them from living in as much harmony as people of the same race? Where have negroes and white people ever failed to live together in harmony? Where there has been a want of harmony between the two races, has it not uniformly been caused by the oppressions of the white race? If they do not live in harmony, whose fault is it; the fault of the negro or the white man? And what if they do ot live together in harmony? Is it anything uncommon? Men of the same race are often very unharmonious. There is often a want of harmony in the family circle among brothers and sisters; the husband and wife are often unharmonious. There was certainly some lack of harmony between the Northern and Southern people of our own race and country. If two races of people who can not live together in harmony are to be separated, why not separate two factions of the same race who fail to live in harmony? Why not colonize the Southern rebels as well as the negroes? The want of harmony between them and the loyal people was so great as to result in a stupendous war.— Where was there ever such a want of harmony between the whites and the blacks? We dismiss proposition No. 1, as scarcely worthy of serious comment. "2. If an inferior race live in connection with a superior, history shows that the superior deteriorates to the level of the inferior."

History shows no such thing. If it does, it shows what is not so. Different races of people have lived together from the earliest ages, and the world, instead of deteriorating, has been constantly growing better, which could not be the case if proposition No. 2 were true. In our own country, where all races and nationalities live together, from the highest to the lowest, we find a higher civilization, greater practical knowledge, energy, power, true statesmanship, &c., &c., than anywhere else on the globe. The association of inferior races with us has not dragged us down—we have been constantly going up. The gentleman's proposition involves the absurdity that the school teacher, instead of imparting his

knowledge to the pupils, deteriorates to a level with the pupils; that if you put a wise man and an ignorant one together, instead of the ignorant growing wise, the wise will grow ignorant. It is very true, if you mix water and whisky, the whisky is deteriorated and the water not much improved; and it may be from a practical experience in this matter that the gentleman draws his philosophy.

In Ohio, negroes and white people have lived together ever since it has been a State. Ohio has never excluded colored people. Is Ohio in any particular inferior to Indiana? Did not Ohio give us the Generals who finally crushed the rebellion? Grant, Sherman, Rosecrans, Sheridan, all come from a State where negroes reside in great abundance, where some of them

vote, and where all are competent witnesses in Court. "History" does not, then, show that Ohio's intelligence, military talent, statesmanship, physical power, or anything else that goes to make her a great State, has deteriorated by admitting the African within her borders. The man who goes to history to disprove the existence of a state of palpable facts under his very nose, is evidently trying to deceive and mislead. "3. The presence of any considerable number of negroes in the State would bring on a war of races, and result in an extermination of the degraded race."

How does Mr. Buskirk know this? Does "history

prove"

it? No, but the

history of almost every State in the Union disproves it. In what instance have negroes ever made war on white people that Mr. Buskirk would not have done just as the negro did and even worse, had he been in the negroes place? Negroes have sometimes knocked white men down for trying to "lash" them. Would not Mr. Buskirk have done the same thing? We venture to assert that Mr. Buskirk has never known of a difficulty between a negro and a white man, where the white man was not meaner and more degraded than the negro and mostly to blame for the difficulty. The difficulties between whites and blacks almost universally grow out of attempts to trample on the rights of the negro by a class of white men much the negroes inferior in both

morality and intelli-

gence. It would insure harmony to remove these white men. Why not remove them instead of the negro?— Again, there is a much

greater

antipa-

thy to rebels in Indiana, than to negroes, and "the presence of any considerable number of" rebels in the State would bring on a war much sooner than the presence of negroes. If Mr. Buskirk is so much afraid of war, why had he not better move to exclude the rebels. We were once very nearin a war on account of the presence of a considerable number of Knights of the Golden Circle. We believe Mr. Buskirk never thought of removing them from the State to preserve the peace. On the contrary, we believe that "history proves" some from abroad were invited to the State, and harbored here by men who are now so "down on the nigger," to use a vulgar phrase. "History shows" that in Ohio where negroes live in great abundance, there have neither been wars nor rumors of war between the negroes and white people. But after all, we suppose that Mr. Buskirk simply means that if negroes are permitted to come into the State, a stupid, degraded, prejudiced, mean and worthless class of men who spend their lives in drinking bad whisky and voting the Copperhead ticket, will be always raising difficulties with the negroes. And in this, perhaps he is right. If so, it would furnish an excellent reason for putting these white men in the penitentiary or a house of correction, but no reason for removing a peaceable negro from the State or keeping one out. "4. Being disgraced, the negro will contaminate the moral atmosphere."

As a commentary on this, we don't know that we can do better than quote the reporter's remark about the closing paragraph of Mr. Buskirk's speech. It is as follows: "His closing paragraph was an earnest appeal against the division of the school fund for the benefit of the children of negroes, and that the end of all legislation should be the development of the white race, and the resources of our country."

The negro, being degraded, is well calculated to contaminate the moral atmosphere. Therefore we should refuse to educate him, and keep him in a state of degradation. The two pro-

positions together make a most excellent argument in favor of a "contaminated moral atmosphere," but we fail to see the force of the gentleman's logic when he urges proposition 4 as a reason for removing the negro from the State. 5. Amalgamation is sinful and wrong, repugnant to virtue, and its prevention will be impossible if any large number of negroes come into the State."

Our law has, for many years, prohibited marriages between whites and blacks, and we know of no instance in which it has ever been violated. We much doubt if there has ever been a single prosecution for its violation.— We doubt whether there is a single white man in the State (considering the fact that negroes and white people can not live together in harmouy) so anxious to wed a negro as to run the risk of being sent to the penitentiary in order to form such a union. "6. Negroes are unfit to be admitted to social equality."

If they are, gentlemen will not associate with them. There will be no compulsion. If Article 13 should be repealed, we suppose all would be left free, as now, to choose their associates. The Legislature does not propose to compel negroes and white people to associate upon terms of equality. "7. The experience of the past demonstrates that homogeneousness is necessary for the happiness, prosperity and power of any people."

Experience has demonstrated the very reverse. China has attempted to preserve her "homogeneousness," by excluding all foreigners. We have not learned that this course has made her more happy, prosperous and powerful than other nations. Neither has she been more exempt from servile wars and insurrections. The world never saw a more heterogeneous mass of people than now constitute the United States of America. Are we behind all other nations in happiness, prosperity and power. We must be if proposition 7 is not false. Here, English, Irish, Welsh, Scotch, Dutch, French, Indian, African, Norwegian, and almost countless other races of men have come together and founded the most prosperous and powerful nation on the earth. "8. The government of Indiana was made by white people for the benefit of the white race."

Then white people ought to have defended it when its existence was threatened. We heard no such proposition advanced when Democrats were hunting negro substitutes. It is rather a nice thing for white men to enjoy all the privileges of a government, and call on the negroes to discharge the obligations it imposes on white men. It is a white man's government in peace, but when war comes, the negro is always invited to "take a hand," and he has never yet refused to do it. "9. If negroes are not excluded from the State, the South will send her crippled and worthless negroes into the North, to which they would be thus invited."

Why would the South send her crippled negroes here any more than her crippled white men? Besides, it is not necessary to exclude all, in order to exclude the crippled ones. "10. Industrious negroes would compete with white laborors, compelling the latter to work side by side with the former, which would tend to the degradation of labor."

This is the first time we ever knew a democrat to admit there was such a thing on earth as an "industrious negro." We fail to see how the labor of an "industrious negro" is going to degrade labor. Upon this point we are sorry Mr. Buskirk did not explain himself. It is the first in all our life, that we ever heard the idea advanced that industry is degrading to labor. Perhaps this is not Mr. B.'s idea, but if it be not, we fail to comprehend his meaning. To suit Mr. B., perhaps the Legislature might be induced to so amend the 13th Article as to exclude only the "industrious negroes." "11. The granting of political rights would impair free election."

Yes, yes, in order to have a free election, the people should be prohibited from voting! "12. Our soil and climate are not adapted to the status of the negro."

Therefore he will not come here, in any considerable numbers; and this puts an end to all the rest of Mr. B.'s long string of sophisms. "13. Justice, humanity, philanthropy, and Christianity demand the separation of the races, and the colonization of the colored people."

The government was assailed by an armed and powerful combination which aimed at its total destruction. We were failing to put it down. We called on the negro to aid us in preserving the government—he came with alacrity and fought gallantly, while many white men fled to Canada. Now, "justice, humanity, philanthrophy, and christianity" demand that we should drive him from the country, in to everlasting exile, and pardon those who sought the life of the nation. Our house is on fire—we call on a bystander to aid us in extinguishing the flames. He does so, and then, under the injunctions of justice, religion, philanthropy and humanity, deny him shelter for the night under its roof! But enough. Such are democratic ideas of justice, religion, humanity and philanthropy. P. S. K.

Since the death of Lincoln, Johnson, as in the case of Tyler and Fillmore, has been gradually sliding off the Republican platform.—Indianapolis Herald.

It was not much of a "slide" towards the democratic platform he made the other day when he announced to the North Carolina delegation that the speedy ratification of the Constitutional amendment abolishing slavery, would be necessary to secure the re-admission of the rebel States into the Union.— Nor did he "slide" much towards democracy when he ordered the execution of the infamous and brutal Wirz, for whose pardon his democratic brethren had so zealously pleaded through the press and otherwise. If Andy is "sliding off" the Republican platform, he is sliding off on the side opposite to democracy.

New Jersey—Official Vote. The official vote of New Jersey for Govornor is as follows: Ward (Union,) 57,520; Runyon, (Dem.,) 64,731; Union majority, 2,789. The total vote last year was 128,747; this year it is 132,251. The Democratic majority last year was 7,301. The Union gain is 10,090. Not only is the aggregate vote considerably larger than that cast for President last year, but the returns by counties show that the Union gains are greatest in those where the vote was fullest. The two Union Representatives in the next Congress are triumphantly sustained in their districts, while two of the three Democrats have been disavowed by a majority of their constituents.

Smuggling.

Smuggling from Canada has attained the perfection of a fine art. The last plan discovered is a bogus baby. made of tin, filled with spirits, and then, swaddled in shawls, is carried in a woman's arms across the line. In a train of cars recently, a detective noticed that out of thirty babies only two cried in a journey of fifteen miles. This awakened his suspicion, and led him to the discovery of the trick.

Senator H. S. Lane, and wife, took their departure for the National Capital on Tuesday. Hon. G. S. Orth, Representative from this Congressional District, left for Washington on same

day.

The letter of our Indianapolis correspondent came to hand too late for insertion this week. Such favors, friend G., to insure publication same week, should reach us, at latest, on Tuesday ev-

ening.

Samuel C. Crane, Esq., formerly of this city, we understand, contemplates commencing the publication of a temperance paper at Indianapolis. Success attend the enterprise.

The Weather.

Till within the past two or three days, the weather has been most gloriously beautiful—clear and mild, like unto that of October in years gone by. Slight fall of snow, however, on Tuesday night; and to-day (Wednesday) the heavens are dark and threatening and the prospect fair for bad weather, and that early—rain, sleet, snow—freeze, thaw, freeze—and so on, to the coming of spring.

The Banner at Cost.

It will be seen from the new advertisement of our friend "Bill" Bowers, that the old Banner is to be closed out root and branch, positively at cost, and no mistake. Our readers will find by calling, that Mr. B. means just what he says, and

A report of the vessels destroyed by English pirates acting in the interest of the South, gives the total number destroyed at 275, with a tunnage of one million tuns.

The Cotton Crop in Illinois. The cotton crop is the largest ever raised in Illinois, and is rarely exceeded in what are known as the Cotton States. The product per acre this year will range from 1,000 to 1,500 pounds seed cotton. The quality is good, is first rate as compared with upland cotton at the South. We have heard it estimated that Jackson county alone will produce 10,000 bales, while Perry, Williamson, Saline and Union counties will more than double this amount. The weather this fall has been peculiarly favorable for maturing and opening the bolls. We have had no killing frosts yet, and all the late bolls are maturing and will be as good as the early ones, thus making the yield extra heavy. There are now six gins in town, running constantly, and they cannot dispose of the cotton even now as fast as it comes to market. Wagons are continually arriving in town loaded with the staple, and our buyers are eager to meet them. The price has ranged from ten cents to twelve and a half cents per pound for seed cotton, the latter figure for one load only, so far as we can learn.—Carbondale (Ill.) Era.

An Advantage Derived from our Protective Tariff.

The high and almost prohibitory duty on French brandies, has stimulated the wine dealers of Ohio to produce from their prolific vineyards, Catawba Brandy, possessing all the fine qualities of European importations, thereby making us independent of the foreign market. This brandy is made by a careful distillation of the Catawba grape, after extracting the fine flavored wine, making it the very essence of the grape, and its purity per-

fect.

It is undefiled by any foreign substance. Druggists and physicians should always be supplied with this choice stimulant, as no other brandy will be purchased by the people hereafter.

The finest article of Catawba Brandy is made by C. W. Roback, Cincinnati. [novlm.

DIARRHOEA AND DYSENTERY.—A sure remedy for the worst cases of acute or chronic Diarrhoea and Dysentery is Dr. Strickland's Anti-Cholera Mixture—thousands have been cured by it—our Government uses it in the hospitals. It has cured many of our soldiers after all other means failed, in fact we have enough proof of the efficacy of this valuable preparation of astringents, absorbents, stimulants and carminatives, to advise every one of our readers to get a bottle and have it in readiness, and to those who suffer try it directly. Sold by Druggists everywhere. Ask for Dr. Strickland's Anti-Cholera Mixture. [1]

A VOICE FROM VICKSBURG. VICKSBURG, Miss., Aug. 9, 1863. Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: I am happy to state to you that I have used your valuable Cedron Bitters with great benefit to myself, in general debility and prostration of my system produced by the unhealthy and miasmatic influence of the Mississippi river around Vicksburg, having been with Gen. Grant's army through its whole southern campaign. I confidently recommend its use to all persons who are exposed to unhealthy climates. H. W. FOGLE,

Agent U. S. Sanitary Commission.

On the 23d of July last, I submitted, through an agent of mine, to the Medical Director of the Department of the Army of the Cumberland, a sample of my Cedron Bitters, for inspection, and requested if, after analysis, he found it meritorious, to sanction and approve its use among our soldiers. The following is the Medical Director's reply, and also Gen. Rosecrans' permission to ship 300 dozen at once, to have it sold to sutlers.

JOHN BULL.

I am satisfied that Cedron Bitters will do no harm to any one if taken properly and in moderation. I see no objection to Dr. Bull's being permitted to dispose of it to sutlers.
