WKhMWUAY liowrma. 4AN.23. I8S6 ' , ti 1 Valedictory. Wirh th« jrrwnt ntmiber, my com>ection with tire Sentinel aa nn editor and proprietor, ceMee. Tfcfc ancoaocemeot, ie eooo After rotnTng Into (lie concert, wITT Be anexpected to rooei of our reed to, end needs ex plenation. That explanation I now propose to gleet M briefly m may be. It is well known to aenm, though .not of murse to the friends of Urn paper generally, that I came to ft rery reluctantly, and at the riffled* and lotig contitmed solicitation of many prominent Democrats, who tlmaght my ct[>erience In the printing business would l»e vsirniile to the party in putting the central organ upon a firmer footing financially, titan it had I teen for some time j<nst. It was prescod upon me also as a reason why I • hould do so, that in that case my worthy friend Mr. Norman would consent to assume the position of principal editor of the Sentinel, an arrangement which would evidently l>e highly afcccptaMe and btxielicial to the party, lie had made a reputation in another held which seemed unerringly to point him out as the man for the place. lie had been my early friend in onr more youthful days, and the association in the present enterprise promised to be both pleasant and profitable. 1 feel five to confess, too, that the memory of an early resolve may have bad something to do in tnrning the scale. I came to Indianapolis seventeen yeers ego, a stranger, without social advantages, and worse than penniless. 1 was met with opposition and persecution from the printers then here; and I . •Iftteriuined, that if I lived, I would one day Htand at the head of the profession in this « ity, and in the State. There are a few yet here who can witners with what patience and perseverance I pursued this ambition through many years of toil. But tiiat feeling an- • werf to nothing that is in me now ; for after having a few short weeks occupied the coveted poeition, I find there is nothing in it that is desirable; and my only ambition ia to spend the remninder of my life in quiet retirement, and to deserve and rotain the esIfctn of Urn friends whom I havo Wen so fortunate as to make. I hesitated, frem the fear that my health had become so far impaired by severe application to printing-office lal*ors heretofore, that it. was um.afe again to enter upon this em-
ployment.
I, however, yielded my own convictions of duty to those of my too kind and partial Irieuds who meant to do me a kindness in this matter, and entered, with many fears and misgivings as to my ability to meet the expectations of tho public, upou the duties <d position which I now gladly surrender, J was at once convinced that my first impressions as to the influence of close conlinenjctit upon my health, were correct, and that it waa necessary to abandon the enterprise. In doing so I regret that the step which I have deemed it necessary to take, iuiiy have liu<.t Kornw inUuonce >u dvtermiuiug my talented associate to retire also. He has, however, other reasons, which he will present in another place. But I am glad to know that the party will have the benefit of Inn accomplished pen in another editorial field. For myself, I believe and trust that this is my final leave-taking of edilorial and
printing-office life forever.
We do not leave the Sentinel for want of
pecuniary profit. In our hands it has been a paying concern, having at the close of every week, a surplus of cash, after meeting all expenses. But it has never yet received near the patronage which the capital and lalor re-quind-to run it, ought to command. I hope that all our party friends in the State will look to thh thing, and sec to it that the pa-
per has'a largely increased support. Jt affords us the highest satisfaction that
wo are enabled to leave the paper in good hands. The now proprietors, Messrs. Wm.
Lahkadkf: and Chari.es W. CorroMaro
worthy the confidence and liberal snpport of tho party. Tho name of Prof. Lakrarkk is hWimSf as household words in Indiana, and in the Western States. His education and ability as a writer, his age and expelienee, his general acquaintance with the people of the Stale, his largo acquirements in literature, aud knowledge of the affairs of the 8tale and nation, and his sound democracy, eminently qualify him for the chief editorship «>f the feeding Democratic journal of Indiaua. 1 Its accession cannot but be warmly received by the party. With Mr. Cottom, the readers of the {tailinel are well acquainted, and he
to Ifltving; fritbds !|f*d relatives to reaide in a place in which she would be alnsost an entire stranger. But HrcniMt—cM haring changed, I was finally i(Minced to abandon to others the field I then occupied, and, in connection with Mr. Spann, to aftram* the management of U>e Sentinel. I may here say, too, that tho consideration of having the advantage of the borines* ami financial talent of this gentleman it the concern, waa the leading inducement (or changing my determination and acceding to the wishes of my too partial friends. But the 4>rief experience I have had has served to convince me that my own first impressions were correct Whatever qualifications I may possess as an editor, I am satisfied that /Am is not the )ioint st which 1 can exercise them most successfully and advantageously to the Democratic party. It is expected than an editor at Indianapolis shall be extremely circumspect in the expression of his opinions as to men and things. The timid are fearful that he will become too radical and commit the party to measures of doubtful propriety or popularity ; while the ardent and enthusiastie are impatient if their party “ organ,” as the Sentinel is styled, is not at least a decade ahead of the times. Accustomed to write frem the impulse of the moment and to express my own convictions of right and wrong, without considering the immediate bearing they may have on the position of this or that politician, or how each prominent member of our party may be affected by the expression of my own views, this restraint is to me peculiarly annoying. By these remarks no personal allusion is intended. I am not aware that any serious exceptions have been token to the manner of conducting the paper since it has been under my charge as principal editor. But the tendency is as I have stated. Under these circumstances, I have deemed it pioper to follow the example which a regard for health has compelled my partner to set, and retire from the concern. Other associations, too, formed during a period of nine years, have proved stronger than the revival of those of more youthful days. I leave the paper cheerfully and voluntarily, and against what I know is the disinterested ad vice and candid opinion of many warm friends. I thank them for their good opinion of my ability to serve tho party, but justice to myself and the party with which I am proud to act, seems to me to demand that it should be transferred <o those who can bring to it more enthusiasm and more energy.— In pursuing this course I am aware that I sacrifice the most flattering pecuniary prospects, and also that which men of my age regard as little less im|K>rtanl, because it appeals to their vanity and ambition—the hope o’f acquiring a widespread professional reputation, and consequent influence. But the advocacy of Democratic principles has ever been to me a labor of love, and now, on the eve of an important contest, when the black cloud of Abolitionism and Know Nothing bigotry is biwerinc over us, it would be criminal in any Democrat to fold his arms and listlessly await till the gathering storm shall burst. My poor abilities shall be exerted to uphold the glorious qld Democratic banner, which now as ever, has inscribed upon its ample folds the Union an© the Cowstittttion. If the field of operations upon which I may enter be more circumscribed than that from which I now retire, I have the consolation*of knowing that the wider field will be occupied by those better qualified to do it justice, and whose services might not otherwise be secured to the party. To our readers I would say, give to our successors a cordial and generous snpport. They are worthy of it. Prof. Larrabee will bring to the editorial columns of the Sentinel enthusiasm, learning, talent, and a large political experience. As a writer he has few or no superiors in the West. Mr. Cottom is also a spicy writer and a young gentleman of unconquerable energy, of which fact the readers of tho Sentinel have already had amide proof.* From my late partner, whom I have known and esteemed for fifteen years, I part with no other feelings than those of TBuducss. To my brethern of the press who greeted my accession to the Sentinel, with so many expressions of kindness, I wish every success and prosjierity. In Indianapolis I haveformed many new and valued acquaintances, and have revived friendships which commenced more than twenty years ago, in school boy days. Their familiar faces bring up memories of events long since passed, but which time can never efface. The glistening tear starts to the eyelid as we call to mind some cbotel spirits, endeared by early associa-
e tore rflpired fjltrtteT from ppamro- j who received Ike appointment of “Con tingent EJerto»~ from the late Democratic State Convention, asking Of# views aa to the nature of that appointment; whether it is expected that, by virtue ofabts appointment, the '•Contingent” will can vans bis district, or the Slate, as the case may he, or whether he is merely to supply the place of the Klector in the event of bis death, resignation, or withdrawal from the ticket. It seems to na the "Contingent” could occupy both these positions. First, Jet him assist the Klector in canvassing the territory assigned, to him ; and second, let him take the place of the Klector in case of a vacancy. Perhaj* it would be well enough, however, for the State Central Committee to issue a circular to the Contingent Elector*, giving their understanding of the matter.

Our Ticket. Our old line readers will undoubtedly bo plcaseS to notice the National Democratic State Sicket flying at our mast head. A better set of candidates we will venture to say haa never been presented to tho voters of Indiana. That the ticket will succeed is un questionable. We predict its election by a triumphant majority of not Jess than twenty thousand. Tho good feeling and harmony existing in the ranks at the present time, is an indication of success too sure to be mistaken. Democracy when united has always been invincible, and it is only when dissensions, sown by traitors to divide the party, that they ever succumb to any combination of political foes. In our own county as in every part of the State, the National Democracy presents a firm and unbroken front. The same glorious principles that have always blazoned upon its banner are inscribed there still. Like the Hydra-headed monster of fabulous mythology, fusionism presents at each successive campaign a new head. The one that Democracy struck off with its flashing sword of truth in the late election, hid its visage underneath the dark mask of hypocrisy and deceit. But the new one that presents itself, show's an African parentage; its features are dark as Erebus, and through its veins courses none of the whito Circassian blood.— On its forehead is written Abolitionism. It seeks the happiness of tltree millions of blacks at the expense of twenty millions of w’hites. It has in every instance, where its power has been shown, placed the negro ou an equality with the white man. The Democracy in tho coining contest have no such noble foe as the old W hig party to combat,* but a miserable, woolly headed gang c r fanatics, that have already commenced with unblushing effrontery to advocate the amalgainatio of the whites with the Lawny African. Can such a party holding such odious principles succeed? Wo think not. Their dot»m is certain. The national spirit of the American people will hurl such traitors from the Tarpeian rock ol retributive vengeance, to the dad|.fathomless abyss of infamy and disgrace. V We have not time this week to discuss the merits and qualifications of the respective candidates, but shall do so at onr earliest convenience. In the meantini^, we hope the old line Democrats and Whigs will be up and doing, and fighting shoulder to shoulder, sweep away the last vestige of treason and black-hearted republicanism.—Cratofprdsoille llecirw.
the family consented to prevent it from becoming a runaway marriage. She was tltu daughter of Edwaid Thompson, and became entitled under the will of her father to the above mentioned estate, which was at first held by her grandfather a* trustee. After the birth of her three children she left her husband and went off with another man, with whom she appears to have lived for upward of a year, nhe paying all the bills, and spending money at a farious rate. The husband cominencetf a suit against the paramour; but finally to atop the proceedings and to relieve herself from the pecuniary destitution to which she was reduced her expenses far exceeding her income—she

McBride, the defendant in this suit, who was her uncle, agreed to set as her trustee, and together withhis family, appeirs to have used >every effort to bring her bock to the paths of
prepriety.
Before long, however, she quarreled again with her husband, and eloped with one Dolsen, who in some capacity or other had become an inmate of her family, with whom she appears to have since lived, though indulging also at the same time in very promiscuous dissipation.— Her calls for money on her uncle and trustee were urgent and frequent, till having already advanced much more limn had yet become due, and perceiving the base purposes to which the money was put, he declined any longer to supply her extravagance. To frighten him into submission the present suit was commenced, it was an application for his removal from the trusteeship ou the ground that he had made use of his position to attempt to seduce her, withholding her money to compel her to submit to his wishes ; and tne evidence relied upon to establish this atrocious charge were the friendly notes which the trustee had from time to time addressed to his erring ward, partly in relation to business, partly in hopes to win her back to decency, with which it was attempted to intermingle two or tfiree slips of paper which might afford some slight color to the allegations of the paintiff, but which were proved not to be his handwriting. Of course to meet this extraordinary charge Mr. McBride was obliged to disclose to the Court and the public the true character of his unfortunate niece, who was presented by the evidence putin as having put herself on a level and subjected herself to some of the horrible ’evils attending on a life of abandoned prostitu
tion.
The counsel who appeared for the plaintiff could scarcely have been ignorant of the true character of their case and their clieiit; and yet as Mr. McBride would yield nothing, they per sisted in going to trial. After the second day’s proceedings had been published, the plaintiff sent a paper signed with her own name to Mr. McBrine’s counsel in which she* notified him that she had withdrawn all authority from Messrs. Smith A Norton, who acted as her counsel, to proceed with the suit. This paper having been served upon the counsel, they proceeded to her boarding-house, where they were received at the door by the mau Dolsen, who refused to allow them to see her. However, the next morning Mr. Norton contrived to get access to her, and persuaded her to sign a paper revoking her revocation and authorizing Smith A Norton togO On. But, pending tOeproceedings thethird day, Dolsen himself entered the Court room and handed to Mr. McBride’s counsel a third paper, signed also by I he plaintiff, in which she declared that she had been compelled by Mr. Norton’s threats to sign the second paper, and again revoking all authority to Smith A Norton to act for her. Mr. Norton, being put upon the stand, denied lire use of any threats, but only representations tiiat to withdraw the suit would be to confess the truth of the charges against her; and he insisted, on the other hand, that Dolsen had, as she said, compelled her to sign the first paper by threats, ami that he had also compelled her to execute a paper assigning him the trust property—rthe whole of her estate —and that she had the day before accompanied him to Wall street to sign these papers. Finally Messrs, Smith A Norton backed out and abandoned their whole case, acknowledging that the charges against Mr. McBride were wholly unfounded. We can conceive but one reason why they should have persisted in trying aca.se the result of which they must have foreseen. They must have wished in a friendly spirit to bring the la? mcnlable case of their client,surrounded as she is by sharpers and guilty as she would seem to have been of grous violations of law, to the notice of the Grand Jury and the prosecuting officers of the county. Could > nything better be done for this unfortunate young woman than to place her in the House of Correction, where she would not only have leisure to reform, but would be protected against the villains who inflame her evil propensities as a means of plundering her? And if some of the persons who have acted a conspicuous part in contributing to her degradation, were sent either to the House of Correction or the Penitentiary, wc conceive that they would do the public more service there than they are likely to do in any other position. Fdaad Out. The editor of the Madison Banner Has at length become acquainted with him of the Lafayette Courier, and appreciates the /ootenese of our cotemporary. Hear him : The Lafayette Courier, the editor of which was hi attendance, a* an outsider, upon the democratic convention at Indianapolis on the HUt, asserted the other day, that Mr. Gordon Tanner, nominee for Supreme Court Reporter, used to ben whig, joined the knuow nothings to get office, but, being defeated, went over to the democrats. Relying upon the truth of the Lafayette Courier’s statement, we made a paragraph (hereupon. W« supposed,of course, Ihat its editor knew what he was talking about, but it seems he did not. The last issue of that sheet contains a retraction ami an apology with respect to Mr. Tanner, in which the editor excuses himself by saying that he was mistaken—that he meant one Judge OurUoa, *e. Those who are satisfied with this explanation can take it For our port, we sincerely regret whatever injustice was done the democratic nominee through os.
