Senator McDonald on the Exodus.

Judge E. V Long, of Warsaw, is a prominent candidate for Supreme Ju Ige in the place of Judge Biddle. We miss tne sinning countenances of Consul James and Geuerul Thompson on our streets Where are they? "Oil, tell us, ye winged winds That round XHKta pathway roar.” .-«♦*- O r neighbor is engaged in patting Spottswood, of the Kentiand Press, on the back, and we 1 may the editor < f the Press in agony exclaim: "What have I done to merit the approbati n of this Bitter s foeof my party?” Zen, no doubt, feels complimuted by the friendly (?) notice his par’.}’ organ gives him. We announced what was sheet rumor, but bis organ ilur-.-s u[), and in a dictatorial spiiit gives Z to understand that his claims and wishes will not be considered. Wed may Z. exclaim: “Upon what meat liutb this, our Ciesar, fed!”

* * * “editorial (?) bog wash!” —fyepublican. Well, whatever the name that may be applied by the pall iotii ! loyal! and refined! genius who presides over the management of the Republican, one thing is very evident, and that is, the “hog-wash” has been successfully applied. It has washed off the hypocritical cloulc of loyalty and patriotism from the hides of the animals, and established the fact they had not been in the army, and would have resorted to Canada in preference to the camp, “Hog wash''is good, especially when we consider t' e use made of the preparation.

Speaking to the Washington cor respondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, Senator McDonald said recently; “You can say that the Indiana Democrat!! have been importing white voters over since she was admitted to th * Union in ISItJ. We have made Indiana the most desirable • tafe in the Union for them to locate in. As for colored voters the Indiana Demo crata have not encouraged them to come. The thirteenth article of our constitution, adopted in 1850, prohibited tiie bringing of negroes into our State, and we would have maintained it only for the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments to the United Statos constirut ion. The United. States got a number or two ahead of us. But I’ll say this: After the next election the Republicans will think we’ve been importing voters.”
