The qaestioo is before the eoontrj end we renew the icq-ilrj in a differeat for in. Is the Journal against egro suffrage and in favor of the supremacy of the white race?

That te, the Journal is in favor of exempting the bondi of the öoeernment from all taxation for local and State purposes, and placing the hardens of taxttioa upon the merchant, the minnfrtnrrr. the mechanic, the farmer, the property holder and tbt prodacioc claMei gent rally, whose labor is the wealth of the country.

There is hardly an iue of the Journal but it chsrgea the responsibility of the iudividnal acts of members of the Democratic party upon the part j generally; but wheo "chickens come home to roost.

We give space this morning to an interesting agd lengthy report of the proceedings of the Ilatbor Convention, held at Michigan City cn TueaJay lat. The Convention was largely at tended by gentlemen froia varioua parts of tbt State, aud the speeches upon the occasion set forth tbe neceity of the hrbor to Uke navigation, and the advinttgea ni.;ch would be derived from it, rot only by the people of Indiana, but by the country generally. 1 ha estimated coat of tbe Improvement U $3 DO .(00. and about bait of that sum has already been pledged by private aabeeripiione.

The subject will be brought to the attention cf ti e next Congress, but ia the meantime every effort should be made by those immediately iutcrcstcJ to raUe the amovnt required, so that the work will be fnt through In any event. t a: a sc Dreret Brigsdler Major Genersl Hoyiy hs been appointed Minister to Peru a second elara mission.

Specisl Ditpatch to tie Tbl Chicago Time s. . Micuioa Cite' Ind., Augut 17. At an early hour this morning the streets ot Michigan City were thronged with residents of tbe Northwest, who bad come from the surroun ding Statei, to attend tbe Harbor Convention which had been called for the purpose of providing f unds to construct a harbor at this place. A18VMEXTI 15 rATOt OF Till IU1B0B. A few preliminary explanations may serve to rive an idea of tbe advantage claimed by the lndianiana for the proposed harbor at Michigan City. Tbey claim, and somewhat justly, that tbey have no outlet lor their produce; that they have rich internal resources, both agricultural and mineral, which would sod enrich tbe State, and greatly enhatce tbe value of property, it ao outlet to the large maikets could be made In diana has several railroads traversing its territory which would find a common centie at Michigan City, if a ahare of the commerce of the lkee could be obtained there Tbe Louisville, New Albany and Chicago Railroad crosses the State io a southerly direction, affording a communication with the Oaio river, almost direct, a distance of 300 miles. Tbe Cinciunati. Peru aud Chicago Railroad would find its Northern terminus at Michigsn City, instead of Laporte, where it ends at present. This interregnum is only twelve miles in length, and the ground ia nearly all graded. Thus a direct route from Michigan City to Cincinnati woulJ be opened which would greatly enhance the commerce of the lakes. In CJay county, Indiana, extensive coal fields have reientlv been developed, which demand a route to mttket. A gentleman from Peonsyt vania is ready to build extsosive iron works at Michigan City.it the harbor can be made navi gable. He will bring bis coal from the mines tu Clay county, over the New Albany Railroad, costing on ita arrival at the lakes ouly $5 per ton. Thus, an immense trafüc would be esub liahed, which would enrich both Michicao City ud the entire State, a well as influence the Cbicsgo msrket. 1 he principal shipments of Indiana will be made from Michigan City, being sent to port over the railroads above named. 1 be will consist ot hard wooJ, coal, grains, and many other art des of commerce. Mr Strain, the Pennsylvania iron merchant, will bring bis ore from the Ltke S'ipetior mines, and smelt it with coal brought Irom Clay county. The products ot northern Iuliana will find a ready matket at Chicago, whereas tbey are now shipped by rail to the Ohio river 'Another argument for the construction of the harbor is, tint south of Chicago there is no haven for vessels driven a?t.ore by north and northeast winds, and that many thousand doiiars worth of property ani mtnv lives are lo.-i every year in conacquet.ee IuJixc aio a locat i ride in the cutter.

The Convection was called to order at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, by Mr N. N.

He eid they saw before them a broad lake, which with out harbor a wsa valueless aa a barren waste - lie believed that tbe time would come when the Government would be obliged to build a htrbor here, to protect its commerce from tbe enemy on the other aide of the lake; but be boped that day was far distant, it behooved tbem, as citizens of Indiana, to take some steps io the matter themelres Unless they helped them-elve.-t.ro-body would help them.

The organiztion of the Convention beine perfected, the Chairman it.ttvdated Hon H S Lane. Mr. Lane spoke at some length. He begau by relefring ti the commercial neceity of a h-rbor at Michigan City. The State of Illinois had her treat commercial citv ot Lrucngo the nmix wonderful creation of modern times; Ohij had her Cleveland, Toledo, and minor prt; but Indiana a State rich in products and in mineral wealth had not a harbor ou her whole coit It was a shame and a disgnce to her cit'zens.

The old Covernluent piers h id been inspected, and were found to be sound, and be good found ttioas for the new ones. Thus th expense ot the work would be lessened. Now was tbe time to commence it. Fe ace had her victories no les renowned than war. The whole commerce and prosperity f the Northweat depended upon the construction ot a haibor at Michigan City. But talking would not build it Alter all; money was the thing most needed. He trusted it would be forthcoming. Each man had a personal interest hi the wetk. Although sn old man, he should live to aee a harbor at the mouth of Trail Creek, and hundreds of ve-el. freighted with commerce, Ijing at her docks and along her wharves. . EEMABES Or HOX. O a OETI1. The next speaker introduced was Hon. G S. Orth, Representative of the E n.hth Indiana D a trict. He said tbey met as Indiatiiin; aa active and practical buainess men. They depended today upon Chicago and Dettoit, Cleveland and Toledo for their living, and nlmoit their life He appealed to them a citizens of the Kreut and - - m W a - . ... prosperous state oi luaiana, wrjetntr this state of things so humiliating and so embarrassing was for ever to continue. Tbey need not hope for anything from n.bington. ror many years Indiana had been taxed to build the piers and harbors of Chicago. Milwaukee, and other great frontier cilie Eerrry am had a per.uiul inie rnl iu this matter. They wete raising wheal in tne counties "of Tippacanoc, Lake, and Pulaski; were they anxious to receive an additional hve veuts per bu.nel? To be suie they bad an ontlet tbe Waba.n and Toledo Canal; but that canal taxed them as it pleased for conveying tbeir ptooucts to niaiket It was a monopoly from which they bad no appeal. Tbe coustiuc liou ot a harbor at Michigan City would do awy wub their allegiance to any such power. All the r.ch belt ot cereal counties in the State had a direct interest io tbe work, $300,000. the amount tequirtd, w a9 a eajall sum. it was not one cent an acre upon their land. The Louis Tille, New Albany nd Chicago Rulrotd Co would take $1UU,U00 worth of stock; the teot.te ol Michigan City had already subscribed $lb. 000; while the corporation would take $4.OoO more. This lelt but $75,000 to be sub-tribtd. He did not promise them a uivi4end. Tbe di vi dtuda would accrue upon their lumber, corn aud oats iu the luture.

Dr Robert Harris and John Trainor, while standing on the first fl jor of the latter 's three storv drug store, were struck and considerably bruised by biuk and other missiles that came crashing through the entire heighth of the building, from the falling west top brick wall of Bartlett's bakery. Dmiel Smith and bis son, of Clay township, who stopped with bis team in the covered new brL'ge, for tbe rain to pass over, went down with the bridge, horde's and wagon, and all. The horses and boy wete but slightly it-jured, but Mr. Smith was severely ii jured; he will likely re -over, however. Tbe total d image in S uth Bend and Lowell, from the tornado, will not, in our opinion, txceed $20.000. We with i'. underr-tood abroad, a many exagcerated reports hive got into circulation, that South Bend is not one heap of ruins, nor is the loss by tornado $200,000, nor anything near it.
