The father of Senator Voorhees died on Monday last. The smallpox has broken out amoi g the horses in Canada. The exodus has struck Evansville. No women and children in the consignment. - Grant did not go down to a watery grave as was feared; Ceeaar lias returned, and Blaine, Sherman, et al, are happy and serene. Can an instance be shown where a cumbersome and expensive registration law has proven a protection against illegal votingV Every vote east against,' the State constitutional umendniMits will be a Democratic vote. —Republican. If so, their fate is sealed —defeat is sure.

Attorney General Woolen, in a recently published opinion, holds that a Board of Commissioneis cannot appoint one of their nr mberto superintend any public wot k, and such at act “is not only in bad public taste, but contrary to public policy and il legal.” The New York Evening Express says that Senator Logan’s four day. ’ pitched battle against Fitz John Potter has closed, and the Held is strewn with dislocated parts of speech, and wounded adjectives and lost nominu tives trying to find the verbs they belong to. The Peoria National Democrat says' The currency question is like Banquo’s ghost. It will not down at mi} man’s bidding, let him think himself ever so great. The best way is to meet it manfully, and meet it in the Interest of the masses, and not in the interest of privileged classes. General Thompson and T. “Major” Bitter* are exceedingly incensed and exasperated at the delay in settlement of the pensions to which they are entitled! caused by the Democratic congress. After all the suffering and privations they endured it is truly sad and awful. Give ’em a dose of your justly celebrated “hog-wash” Bitters, ‘Major.’ -

An organization young Republicans bus been formed at Boston which has declared that neither Grant nor Blaine is fir, to be President. The Repubii can party cannot name a man within within its ranks against whom there is not a strong opposition and threats that ho shall be defeated if he is forced upon the party. Surely the outlook for any Republican is not very flattering. The Indianapolis Sun is tho organ of the Greenbackers of this State and it is strongly opposed to the adoption of the proposed amendments.— It says: “Wo believe registration laws are convenient aids to political thieves, and huvo no hesitancy in opposing any amendment to our constitution that shall require the enactment of law’s providing for the registration of votes. Wo hove no objection to the < onsolidation of elections, but as re gistration has been tied to the amendment changing the day of election, we shall cast our vote against it in the interst of American liberty and tho purity of the ballot box.”

LaPorte Argus: A gentleman from the South part of the county, writes us a letter this week, in which he takes strong ground in opposition to the Ist and 3d Constitutional Amendments, and shows wherein they will work hardship. We understand that Presiding Elder Cissel, of this city, suys if the Ist Amendment is adopted it will disfranchise fully one thousand Methodist preachers, and he is strongly opposed to it. Our South Woods eorrospoudent says the people of tho Eastern part of the count} are generally opposed to these questions, as they are of great importance to all clusses. Every man should carefully read them and then vote according to the dictates of his judgment.— There should be no partisanship mixed up in this question.

The law providing for the submission of the constitutioral amendments to the electors of the State enacts that “the secretary of State shall procure ballots of blue paper on each A which shall be printed the proposed amendments and below each amendment shall be printed the word “Yss” in one line, and in another line the word “No;” that any qualified elector may vote for or against any amendment by depositing one of those said-ballots in the ballot box. If he intends to vote for any amendment he shall leave thereunder the word “Yes” and erase the word “No.” If he he intends to vote against any amendment the word “Yes” shall in like manner be stricken out and the word ”No” left; and if both words are allowed to remain, without either of them being erased, the votes shall not be counted either way.” The law re quires that the tickets be kept in the hands of the Inspectors of the election and that they be given out one at a time, as they are demanded by the person wishing to vote. Says the Indianapolis Sentinel:— “Nearly all of our Democratic State exchanges oppose portions of the amendments; some of them are opposed to all. A registry law seems to he particularly obnoxious, simply because the Republican party perpetrated a greater ami nnt of rascality under the only registry law we ever had in Indiana than under any other instrumentality ever used by the sleek,

smooth political rascals of that party. j This H quite a sweeping assertion, | but during the reign of the old regis- i try law wo knew a young Republican lawyer, of this city, who has since seen the errors of his way and become a Democrat. He said that one Sunday before a certain election in Indianapolis, lie consumed the sacred day by copying names from a New York City directory, that there might, be enough signatures to tally with the stuffings of the ballot box. This was a better plan than that used in Morgan county on another occasion by the Republicans, w'ho ran out of ; names, and then voted the graveyards of Morgan ceuuty. This, howuvei | w\is not under the registry law, but serves as an illustration of the brilliantly rascally tactics of Republicanism.”

Roes a Registry Law Protect the Bal lot?

The Indianapolis Sun, Greenback organ says: “We question the pro. ptie'y of tiie enactment of registration laws Such laws usually aid rather than prevent dishonest men in their fraudulent transaction. If a law shall he passed requiring all voters to register la-fore entitling tl.emjto a vote, it amounts to two elections, and gives the political ringmasters great advantage in the election that is to determine any matter at issue. There are at least live hundred thousand voters in Indiana; it will take one day out of each year to attend to the registration. Now put the wages of each voter at one dollar a day, and you find that it will cost tin; people live hundred thousand dollars a year to get ready to vote, besidse large outlays for registration books, clerks, &c. It does not protect the ballot, but makes it easier for the fraud merchant to carry on his business Me will know the number of registration, and will at once prepare to carry his point by fraud. As the law now is, every man eun, if lie wishes, keep iiis purposes to himself so far us voting is concerned, *nd thus it is that the political ofliee-liuntor is at a loss to know just how to move in the matter. The ballot box should be free to all citizens who have the legal right to use it, nor should the world be informed before hand as to the number of voters in any given district. No citizen should bo compelled to advertise himself as a voter, or be denied the right of an American freeman. Wo are therefore, at present, opposed to the registration amendment. We had better | have two elections every four years I than to give such advantages to the \ enemies of constitutional liberty.

REMINGTON ITEMS.

The roads are again in a passable condition, and die fui mere are busiiv at work marketing their corn, and making preparations for sat ing work. Mr. John T. Ford, a highly esteem «cl citizen of Reming ton, was married to Miss Laura Timmons, Saturday evening the 13th iust. We wisii Mr. Ford and his fair bride may meet with prosperity and happiness, enjoying all the pleasurs of earthly life, Mr. Williams, a noted elocutionist, gave an entertainment at Exchange Hall Monday evening the 15th iust. which was attended by a good aud>euee and pronounced a success, although the parties by whom he was employed did not increase their wealth sufficiently to entitle them to be termed millionaires.

The wheat looks very well but tho recent freezes and thaws has no doubt injured it considerably, and probably will decrease the yield one fourth from what was expected Miss Myra Price’s school closed Friday the 12th. Quite a number of present were entertained by literary exercises. Spelling was indulged iu on the evening and pronounced a success. The dangerous and dreaded diseases, diphtheria and scarlet fever have entered the tamily of Mr. Carson, a merchant of Remington. Four children are quite sick, but their recovery is hoped for. The temperance meetings still continue to be largely attended and members very enthusiastic with ex. pectations of effecting much good in the near future. The sermon delivered to the young ladies at the Christian church Sunday evening the L4th was largely attended, very interesting, and if heeded by the young ladies will be productive of much good. gjonsiderable excitement manifested in the election of Trustee for Carpenter, there being so many competitors, all honorable and competent for the office. Tie Tuss.

It is. presumed that public officers will procure supplies for public business where they may be bought for the most reasonable prices. Good articles must be liad, because they are most durable, most servicable, most economical.

All—old and young, married and single, invited to attend. A dime at the door for incidentals. For good writing papers, for elegant writing papers, for cheap writing papers, foa flat-cap, legal-cap and foolscap papers, for print paper, go to the post office. .

White Husbands or None.

Republican daughters of the old Iloosier State. Please choke down your wrath— hide your blm face with faus — While I read from the Journal of no lernote date. Something about your matrimonial plane. It says ‘-Nobody's daughters"* in all the broad land. Demand for their husbands “white men or none. “Except those of Democrats." and the vile insult must stand As a plague spot upon every Republican home. Fair Republican daughters, docs the vile intimation. That carries poison abroad and testers at home. Aronse in your hearts intense Indignation That is felt in each fiber, in marrow and hone? Do you demand, when you kneel at the altar. Like “Democrat daughters," “white husbands or none?” In leeu it is true, and you never will falter, As long as you cherish love longings for home.

The Constitutional Amendments.

Seven important amendments to the Constitution of Indiana have been agreed to by a majority of the members elected to each of the two Houses of the General Assemblies of 1877 and 1879, and by an act of the last General Assembly, approved March 10,1877, these said amendments are to bo submitted to the electors of the State of Indiana for ratification or rejection, at an election to be held on the first Monday in April, 1880. The law providing for the submission of these amendments to the electors of the State enacts that “the secretary of State shall procure ballots of blue paper, on each of which shall be printed the proposed amendments, and below each amendment shall be printed the word “Yes” in one line, and in another line the word “No,” that any qualified elector may vote for or against any amendment by depositing one of said ballots in the ballot box. If he intends to vote for any amendment he shall leave thereunder the word ‘Yes,’ and erase the word ‘No’ by drawing a line across it, or otherwise. If he intends to vote against any amendment, the word ‘Yes’ shall in like manner be stricken out and the word ‘No’ left; and if both words are allowed to remain without either of them being so erased, the vote shall not be counted either way. These amendments are designated by numbers, and are numbered 1,2, 3,4, 5, 0 and 9, numbers 7 aud 8 having failed to receive a majority of votes of both branches of the last General Assembly.

1880 ™ 1880 Indiana Weekly STATE SENTINEL. Enlarged, Improved. 81 .OO Per Annum THE PAPEIi FOR THE PEOPLE. PROSPECTUS FOR 1880.

The coming presidential year promises to be the most eventful and thrilling in a political sense that we have ever witnessed, und twill determine questions of the most vital importance to every citizen of the State and nation. It is not improbable—indeed it is almost certain that, upon the determination of these questions, will depend the perpetuity of our present system of free government. These questions will be thoroughly discussed during the present session of Congress. The Sentinel lias arranged for a lirst class, experienced, special correspondent at Washington, and in addition to giving a true account of all tliegeneral proceedings iu that body, will give the leading speeches of our nu st prominent states men, and without depriving our patrons of the usual amount of reading matter. Tho Sentinel will hereafter contain supplement, {making iu all Sixty Columns of composition. In a Word, it is the purpose of The Sentinel, as a steadfast watchman of public intelligence, to do its whole duty iu affording information to its subscribers upon all these topics of such vast moment. Asia ‘7O so in ’Bolndiana will lie called upon te. take a lirst position iu the front of the great contest, and upon the success or failure of the great and gallant Democracy of our State will depend the fate of issues the most, portentous ever submitted to the arbitrament oi a tree people. We shall also specially call attention, from day to day, as occasion may require, to an entirely New’Phask iu the politics of our State—we mean the forced emigration for temporary partizan purposes of pauper negroes from the South into Indiana. The managers and leaders of the Republican party, in our State and at Washington, are now engaged in this nefarious work, and are attempting by every means in their power to promote its advancement. They have failed, utterly failed to convince our people of the correctness of their political principles, by reason or argument; their appeals to hatred and prejudice have fallen harmless: their lavish and corrupt expenditures of public and private moneys have proved wholly futile. They propose now by an African invasion of worse than a vandal horde of beggars and mendicants to override the voice of the people of the State, and to drown the Democratic majority. The last resort, the forlorn hope, the assaulting party, the picket assaulting corps of Republicanism in Indiana is thus made up—not from the Hunters, Harrisons. Heilmans,or Sliacklcfordsofthe State; not from the intelligence or ability or that party, but is composed of a motley, parti colored gatig wretched field negroes from the South. The froth and scum of this worthless importation are made use of to destroy the free franchise of resident citizens. and to tax onr moans of home labor and domestic subsistence for the support of the political tenets of a defeated taction. The sleepless Sentinel, upon the heights of popular rights and popular liberty, predicts that this movement will also he a failure. With respect to this before unheard of method of manufacturinjpartymajorities in a State, wo shall at all times ive the latest and most reliable intelligence. The American Democracy, the Federal Union, the rights of a lePeople and the States, one and inseparable—now and forever. The merits of The Sentinel as a general newspaper are so well known among the farmers of this State, especially those of the Democratic persuasion, that commendation of it is considered imperil nous We will add, however, that the man ugement has arranged and fully determined that no paper shall furnish so great practical value to its patrons for the money. In itsnews, its editorial, its literary and miscellany—in a word, in its general reading it shall not be surpassed by anv paper circulated in the State. It will be particularly adapted to the family circle. We do not believe that any reading, thinking man ia the Stato can afford to do without the Weekly Sentinel at the small cost at which it is furnished.
