The Evunsville Journal snys: "The .State Sentinel has opened its batteries ou the Granger organization, yet it supports Henderson and Biddle. Possibly Indiana Republicans may be so deluded as not to detect the trick by which it is hoped to defeat Col. Wil3man, one of the best officers the State ever had. How any Republican can %'ote for Henderson because he was nominated by the Tenth of June Convention, when Democrats repudiate the Republican nominees of the same convention, as well as its platform, we can not understand. We think there are very few who will be humbugged to

that extent."

The LaFayette Journal presents the name of Judge D. P. Vinton, of that city, as a suitable man to be nominated by the Republicans for Congress. Of him it says: "He is a man whose character is well established for integrity, having been for years on the bench of this Circuit, 2nd filled the'place so acceptably that his name has shed a lustre upon the judiciary of the State. It is well known that Judge Vinton is not an office seeker, but if the Republicans of this District are wise enough to place their standard in his hands, he will accept the nomination and beyond the remotest doubt be triumphantly elected."

Oxe of the greatest calamities that ever befel any part of this country was that at Pittsburg last Sunday night. It was one that could neither have been foreseen nor guarded against. There was no dam, weekly built, that gave way no reservoir that had at last yielded to the slow action of ti me. A suddeu and terrific storm, lasting only about ninety minutes, but of a violence unprecedented, filled the gullies or runs about the city, and the houses that clung to the sides of the hills were washed away. Even the very earth itself was removed, so fierce was the force of the swelling flood. People were surprised and overtaken by the rushing waters, no time was left in which to flee for safety, and the consequence was a loss of life that is

simply

shocking. The loss

TJIEN AND NO \V.

A lew weeks ago Hon. Thomas A. Hendroicks came, by invitation, to this place and delivered a beautiful address to the literary societies of Wabash College. In that address Charles Sumner was held up to the young men as the American statesman above all others most worthy of imitation. He commenced his public career, he said, with few believers in his peculiar doctrines, but he persistently advocated and labored for what he thought the right, and to-day more of his ideas than any other man's, were embodied in the constitution and laws of

and admiration of all the professors and students, and moral citizens generally, of our little city. Everybody seemed glad that he had so strongly urged upon the young men the idea that they should

three weeks later, they beheld him stand-

With Mr. Hendricks there is but one step from the highest moral elevation to the lowest degradation. He goes, at a single bound, from the grave of Charles Sumner to the door of a whisky saloon. He stands one day on the platform of the Wabash college in the presence of a large audience of religious and moral people, pleading for the right. The next day he is in a crowd of political tricksters, pleading for license to whisky shops! One may try very hard to lespcct such a man, but it is mpossible. He is so little like Charles Sumner that one can hardly believe they belong to the same species.

If Mr. Hendricks possessed one fortieth part of the moral courage of Charles Sumner, he would have said, "Gentlemen,

ready to do their bidding as a dog lies a: the leet of his master, ready to go wherever he points. For such miserable truckling the world tun have nothing but contempt.
