The Lieutenant Governor laid before the Senate several memorials on the subject of the consolidation and combination of railroads In this State, with those of other States, praying for legal interposition agalasttbls evU. They were reforred to the Committee on Corporations. He also laid before the Senate the State Librarian's report, which waa ordered printed—900 copies. . _ A message was reosfved from the House of Representatives announcing the vote of that body on yedlerday for United Mutes Senator.

now seeks at the bands of the Republican party an election to that same otlloe. In our opinion, w^esa not give it to him without compromising our own honor, and fining a atsln upon the Republican party that years of well doing-will not efface. It will make a weak spot in our ann»r that no aklll will enable to cover. But be bus been nominated by a caucus, and vrbat shall wedoT Do this: Tell the world that right Is mightier than a cauctln; that the Republican party does not exact from Us followers any fealty higher than that which they owe to their consciences; that one of ita members who goes into its caucus thereby submits to the Judgment oi the caucus his personal preferences among fit men: but that he does not bind himself, hand and loot, to the aupport of whomsoever may be cboeen, regardless of his substantial qualifications of mind and n> >ruly, hot the Republican members wi.^ feel that the election of Mr. Cumback, In the present situation, would be a calamity to the party and the Bute, stand In a body and refuse to veto for Mr. Cumback; let them demand another caucus and stand by the demand until it is acceded to; and then, a man being chosen whose election will not outrsge the moral sense of the world, let them vote for that man, whoever he
may be.
Tue Cask or Mn. Cumback.—The Indianapolis Journal, and a city cotemporary, vary warmly advocate the "whipping In” of the memberi who refuse to support Governor Cumback for the Henatorsnip. lloth proceed avowedly upon the prluclplekhat "to the victors belong, the epoils.” The one has the State printing and the other wants It, so their course
Is not remarkable.
The foote la this case are very different fretn thoee usual In a caucus nomination. To refuse, because of a mere personal preference for some otber candidate, to support a regular eauoue nominee, and thus promote distension In the party ranks, Would be censuruble In the extreme. But to refUMsupoort to'a nomination made against their most earnest requests for a postponement until charges against the supposed nominee were cleared up, while that nominee la still under the censure of the Menate and of the Governor of the Bute, seems to us a
very different matter.
It has bepn said that the proposition contained. In the correspondence is such an one os any politician would have made under the cinsumstances. Tbia may be true. It may bs trim thnt all politicians are dishonest. If so. the people should throw them all overboard; and the present may not be a bad time to commence. We should, however, be very sorrow to believe it. The confession that all the leaders whom we have followed through! an many campaigns are solely looking af- t ter the "apoUa.” (which we arc told be4 long to "the victors,") would be a moat, humiliating one. “ ' More than this, Mr. Cumback hlmeel# evidently did not regard this correspondence as so entirely innocent In Its nature,' or he would have cleared himself at once of suspicion by laying It before thtf Senate. ills "strategy” in refusing to a flow a postponement or the nomination, until the charges were disposed of, snd endeavoring to shield himself behind a caucus nomination, waa certainly unfortunate, and we can conceive that under the circumstances strict party disciplinarians would bs Justifiable for refusing their
sujpport.
Whether Justly or not, a Tetlgma attached to Mr. Cum back on account of this correspondence before the meeting of theoauoua. We would not Judge harshly) but It seams to us, that to send a man to the United States Senate with the shadow of such public imputations, snd the oeneure of bis ewn Senate, pending over him, foould be hnmlllatlng to the ; Stats and the Senator thne elected. Mr. Cnmback’a friends InJudiclouely strove to fores this Issue, and the "boltera.” aasing this disposition, withdrew from the caucus before any action waa had. The “bolt” seems to have been In the internet •f no particular oabdidate, but for the • hOBOr of the state: and" we are Qfitsotlo enough to believe it right; The qneation certainly has become one of individual ooneolence and not of patty discipline. That such a disagreeable state of affairs •heuld have coma about Is deeply to be deplored; but having come, each member should act as he conscientiously believes to be right—bolt or no wtt,—£ofaytUt Jotirnal, Jie/iubl/oan. 4 —It is more than hinted that the first proposition for a barter of offices came from Governor Ilsker.—Cincinnati Oa-
telle.
Whoever Intimates tbst Governor Baker mafia Ntich a proposition la guilty of basely slandering one of the purest men who ever filled iiifexecutlve chair. Conrad Baker would not turn aside from the path of moral rectitude, If, by a single atop therefrom, lie could reach the Fresl- • foleney of tho United States. We hn ’e sedulously avoided saying anything unkind of Mr. Gufnburk, believing It best to a give our rea<|prA the facts In this most unfortunate affair, ami let them form . their own ismclusiersi, We have viewed the jucapMon him!-progress of tho contest with unfeigned regret and serious apprehensions, lint we will not submit, in alienee, when an attempt is made to fasten a atlgma on the name of a man who deserves to bo honored wherever probity and virtue are respected. Such a character as that of Governor Baker may tall o: appreciation among trained, tricky politicians, but those who breathe a less fetid moral atmosphere will find one of their chief causes of pride and gratitude in the foot that our State is blest with a Chief Magistrate of incorruptible integrity—a man whose aets and niterances gratefully remind one of the noblest characters of the best days of the Republic.—IVrre

By consent Mr. Wolcott, from the Committee on Finance, returned the bill of the House [823 making an appropriation of 175,000 for expenses of this General Assembly, reoominending Its passage because many members are anxious that it ahall pass, though It la defective in not making provisions for the pay of committee clerks and darks of the State Libra-
rian.
On hts farther motion the rules were suspended—yeas 48, nays 0—the bill was read the third time ana finally passed by
yeas 80, nays 17.
[A message from the House announced the passage by that body of a concurrent resolution tor a joint convention ot the two Houses at noon this day, for tbe purpose of going Into an election of ths
United States Senator.]
Mr. Hughea and Mr. Carson Mated that they should vote against the bill Just passed, because the compensation to certain
clerki
iployes* therein embraced, Mr. Hughes referred to a
or em
waa too high,
case where a newly elected County Treaanrer was here as a clerk—be thought this waa wrong. There was a Senate biRon this subject which aultsd hla vlswa bet-
ter.
Mr. Laaaelle voted for the bill under protent—hoping that Its objects may be remedied by a subsequent general act. M r. Turner also voted for the bill under
protest.
Mr. Rice presented a petition praying for the repeal of the act on tbe subject of gravel roads, which was referred to the
Committee on Corporations.
Mr. Cravens called up the message from the House for a Joint ceu ventlon to-
day at high noon.
Mr. Hughes did not understand the necessity for this resolution. The two Houses are to meet to-day under a law of Congress. He thought the resolution obscure and mysterious, snd that It waa un-
necessary to pass It.
Mr Bellamy thought It proper for the House to Invlts ths Senate to their Hall, and hoped that part of the resolution
would be concurred In.
Mr. Cravens waa of opinion the resolbtlon meant simply that we should meet In pursuance of an set of Congress; but It waa unnecessary as he viewed It. It would be courtesy to take some notice of It—he waa not prepared te say what that
notice should be.
Mr. Hushes supposed there was nothing inoreTn the reeolution than matter of form. This will be the first Joint convention ever held In this State under tbe law, and It is proper that tbe precedents •bonId be carefully laid down. As a matter of duty, tbe two Houses go into
Joint convention. Tb* l t he joint convention, sad
d aigreemet t ths Joint convention won have no duty to perform, os he understood It. Then there Is nothing to compare. He moved to lay the resolution on
the table.
Ths motion was agreed to. Mr. Hughes then offered a concurrent resolution, that both branches of the General Assembly meet at noon this day, In obedience to a law of Congress, to cast tbe votes separately given for a Senator in Congress on the second Tuesday after ths convening of the Legislature. Mr. Church called for the reading of the •c„ of Congress. It was read by the Secretary. Mr. Hughes then modified his resolution, so oslt shall read that members of the Senate meet with members of the House, In the Hall of the House, at noon this day, and take amth action as la reared by the act of Congreea of July 25, The resolution waa adopted. Mr. Johnson, of Montgomery, moved to reconsider the vote of yeaterd ty, authorizing a Clerk for the Committee on Claims. He waa satisfied the committee does not need a clerk, and denied the right of a chairman to ask for a clerk without tbe consent of tbe committee. Tbe motion waa agreed to by yeas 44,

And be thought itveiy proper at this time to state that the reiiofutlon Just passed does rot deprive the Lieutenant Governor of any Jurisdiction, but that on tbe contrary he baa tbe right. If be so desires, to act as President of the body, even pending tbe decision ef tbe case reforred to In the resolution. Mr. Gifford, from tbe Committee on County and Township Business, returned the bill [S. 4] regarding nnlformity bf teat books In common schools, recommending that It lie on tbs table. Tbs report wsa concurred in. Mr. Carson, from tbe committee thereon, returned the bill, [H. R. 1] fixing the times and terms of courts in tbe twentieth Judicial district, recommending Its
passage.
Tbe report wsa concurred in.
Reports frem tbe Normal school and from tbe Superintendeat of Publio Instruction were laid before thfi Senate, and reforred to tbe Committee on Education. Mr. Carson Introduced a Joint resolution, [S. 8] reciting that whereas, tbe bark Torrent, bound for Alaska with battery F, United States Artillery, to establish a fort, wsa wracked on tbs 16th of July, 1868, whereqy officers and men lost
their baggage; therefore,

Tbe resolution was read and passed tbe
Senate by yeas 42, nays 4.
Mr. Cravens offered a concurrent resolution, which was adopted, authorising a Joint committee of four Representatives snd three Senators to take Into consideration the expediency of erecting a Guber-
natorial mansion. B1LIX VOB ACTS

In ths chair— By Mr. Laaelle, [S. 74] to enable Incorporated cities to aid In the construction of railroads. It was referred to the Com-

rived, tbe members of tbe Senate repaired to the House, In pursuanoe of a resolution passed this morning, and in compliance with an act of Congress to proeeed in the matter of an election of a Senator from Indiana in the National Legislature.
When the Senators returned to their
chamber, tbe Senate took a recess till two

AFTKRKOO!* SESSION. The Senate was called to order at two o’clock by the President pro tern. BILLS FOR ACTS Were Introduced, read tbs first time and reforred to appropriate commute os. [The Lleuiemint Governor In the chair.] By Mr. Bradley—[S. 77] to amend section 53 of the town Incorporation sot,

Tbe banker pays tbe depositor but six or four per oent., and loans It at twelve, fifteen or eighteen per oent. If this money could be collected promptly with ten per oent. Interest thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars wblcb now find their way Into tbe banks in tbe shape of deposits would be loaned upon real estate mortgage. Tbe Senator from Vigo [Mr. Soott] speaks of bard times, and one great causa of that is tba bad ebaraoter of our laws for the collection of debts. I have no objection to tbe reference of this bill to a committee, but it proposes a plain queation, and I suppose the Senators are as well prepared to vote now as they will be at any other time. *
Mr. Stein—I believe for tba last twenty
yean, with the exception of tbe law eougbt to be repealed, there baa been but one enactment for the protection of the debtor class In this State. I allude to that law which requires real estate to bo sold for two-thirds of its appraised value. In 1861, under peculiar rircumstances, this law was passed, and I think It a fortunate thing for tbe citizens of Indiana. Mr. Stein netted its provisions, and
ita baosficlal opmatlona. The 4 tee being in a very Barge mfiMri-
ty. he was not disposed to we from them
a desirable privilege.
Mr. Green, for the reasons Just given, was also decidedly opposed to tbe repeal of this law, altbough Ita repeal would be advantageous to himself, personally. Ho would like to see It amended, however, in several particulars; and consequently
favored the motion to refer.
Mr. Church, In order that the bill might be amended, would like to see it referred for that puroose. He spoke favorably of tbe amendment suggested by the Senator from Laporte [Sir. Bradley.] The repeal of this law would be taking a step
backward. *
The morion to reflr was agreed to. Mr. Cravens offered a resolution which was adopted, that when the Senate adjourned it adjourn till 16 o’clock to-
morrow morning.

The MU [S. 10] to repeal an act for the redempfjon of real pgaperty sold on execution, or redemption of sale, etc., approved June 4,1861, was read tbe third time. Mr. Green said there was a light bouse, and os this Is an Important btlFhs would rather see It postponed for tbe present. Mr. Fisher said It simply repealed a plain law passed to meet certain extremities then existing on the eoathern border of tbe State. The only reason then given for the pnsesge of the Mil wag that creditors In Kentucky would sell out all tbe real estate in tnst portion of the

r^HB proprietor of this celebrated medicine Jl justly claims for it a superiority over all remediet over offered to the publio for tbe eafe, certain, epeedy and permanent cure of Arue and Fever. or Chills and Fever, whether of short or long standing. He refers to the enure Western ana Southwestern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the assertion, that in no case whatever will it fail to cure, if the directions are Strictly followed and carried out. In a great many cases a single dose has been snfficient for a euro, and whole families have been cured by a tingle bottle, with n perfect restoration of the genetal health. It is v however, prudent, and in every ease more certain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and longstanding cases. Usually, this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels iu food order; should the patient, however, require a cathartic medicine, after havfcg token three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL’S VBGETABLN FAMILY PILLS Will be sufficient.
