Dement. .:... l . ,A dispatch , was received here Saturday, dated Pittsfield; 'Mass., 23d, statin that Mr. ''Asa.B.'Bement had died of an apoplectic , fit, while riding in a sleigh that day between Pittsfield and Stockbridge, Our community, almost every citizen of which had personal acquaintance with the deceased, and but a few months ago had seen him in the full enjoyment of. health, heard with sorrow this news. Mr. Bement was the senior in the old wholesale grocery firms of Bement & Viele of this city, Bement & Co. of Terre Haute, and of a-house at Bowling Green, Ky. He had a widely extended acquaintance in this region of country, and had earned by indefatigable i industry, native Bhrewdness, ( and t superior, knowledge and experience In v all the waysand windings of business, a reputation as a merchant second , to no other man probably, connected with ' this region by business ties. His home of late years had teen at Steckbridge, Mass., -hut he made annual' visits to this city, snd was expected here again in a few days. Hav , ,ing seen Mr. Bement but so short a time since in ill the vigor of life in its prime, and surrounded by warm friends in whose society .his social - attributes seemed to be the more fully developed, it is difficult to realize that those who loved him", shall see him no more. . . . . . . He left a wife, sister ' to Judge Law, of this 'City, but no children.- Two of his younger .brothers are connected with the houses alluded to above. - ,"" . , . -- SUlf (tuft she Itcsponslbltiw. ; The ''artful dodging" of the Old Line Democracy on the Senatorial question, so as to relieve ( themselves from some measure of the responsibility in ease of no election this session, exhibits very plainly their full appreciation ol the fact, that the people intend to hold them to u rigid responsibility in case the election of U. S. Senator ' be postponed. It is really entertaining to notice the efforts they, are making to rid themselves of this'responsibility, and even to shift it upon those who are anxiously; endeavoring to bring about - an election. ' But the facts stare them in the , face, and they .cannot dodge them, that every . Senator has1 sworn to faiiblully discharge ms . . duties, and that one ot his prominent duties this . session is to assist in electing a TJ. S. Senator, and that the majority have shown themselves not " only willing but anxious to proceed to this flec- '. ' tion, and that these Old Liners; the minority, alone are preventing an election. ' ' At first the Old Liners excused themselves by .f declaring thai thev wonld either have to elect as Senator a mischief-making, pcace-disturbin 0 j Abolition Ut. or postpone the election. But the t " fact, that the Republicans rerer thought of run in? such a man, made this eicuse too ridiculous . . .... lor anything more serious than ridicule., Inen 'they would either have to vote for a Know IN'othin : or postpone.' This theyharped upon but 15 'slightlj', as it wouldn't go down even among ' J themselves. ' ' I . But finally, as the last resort to escape respon sibilitr. ther are claiminz that thers is no law . ' . . for the election of U. S. Senator provided by the ' . new Constitution, and that the two Ilouses can hold concurrent elections, that is, each House . vote tor its candidates separately, and of course ' as the S;nate is Old Line and the House Repub5 man, and therefore the election mast be postpon edtill next session, and the Republicans thus be compelled-to bear half the responsibility of no ; election. This idea .is worthy oi its source n is worthy of the corruption and real anti-Popu i Ur Sovereignty feelings of the leaders of the Old Line party. : Under the old law, cur Legis lators elected U. S. Sinator by loint ballot. 11 nn new law is made Relative to such elections. the natural presumption is that the oil custom shall be continued, and that until a specific law is made luture Senators shill be elected just pre ' ciself as those men were elected who are tow ' Senators from Indiana in Congress. Tbe Republican ticket succeeded last election by 15,C00 majority in this ötaie. ui me imeen new öena '"tors elected nine were Republicans, and of the "one hundred Representatives fifiy-eigM were Republicans. The true way then to carry out legitimate "Popular Sovereignty," or the will of the people, is fof the majority of the representa tiresTof the people in the Legislature, on joint . - ballot, to declare through their united votes who, or a man of what principles, the people prefer for Senator. Had the whole Senate been elected by the people at the late election, who doubts but the Republican party would have had an o.-er whelming majority in the Senate as they now hre in the Housel Bat the Old Liners having ' aa accidental majority, are determined the minority in the Legislature shall rub. If they defeat the will of the people as embodied in the majority, how dare they claim that this defeated will shall bear the responsibility! They know . that a "concurrent election" is contrary to ai precedent in this State, and opposed to he will .. of the people as declared at the last fall election. The responsibility of "no ' election" will rest ..upon the Old Liners, and they cannot shift it by any action of theirs. With this responsibility upon their" shoulders let them appeal to the peo- ' pie for appi oval if they dare. 07" The House adopted a resolution on Wednesday inviting the Senate to meet in the hall of the House on Thursday morning for the purpose of electing a Senator by joint ballot.

, Old tine Convention ' In making a call for the Democratic Convention at the Capital, the Sentinel says: : Let us meet, to-day, not as our opponents; merely to distribute the spoils, brut in a spirit of harmony, and with no other motive than the greatest good'of the greatest number. That would be a remarkable Old Line Democratic Convention indeed and the first

of the kind ever held in Indiana. Talk about those old professional office-seekers and of fice-holders who lead the Old Liners in this State, meeting for any other object than to stody how io secure or keep spoils! They talk about the Republicans being office-seekers! Why, there is not an Old Liner of any prominence in the whole State who has not been more or less an office-seeker, and who has not at least once in his brief history been an office-holder. They are the last men to talk of other men being office-seekers. A pole-cat might just as well find fault with a musk-rat for not smelling sweet. Some of these Old Liners are of the Chapman class The love of office was born in them, and if they can't revel in office always in their own party, why they will join some other offering abetter chance. fJCfThe Memphis Appeal accuses us of "attacking" Mr. Coleman, of tbe Memphis telegraph line, and of complaining to him that he did not pay his postage on a letter to us. Now we have only to say that we never attacked Mr. Coleman, further than to remark that when Mr. Coleman complained of experiencing so longa trip on tbe Ohio river, it was fortunate for him he hadV straddled the wires of his own line, or he might still be on the way. We did state in a letter to Mr. Coleman.that he had not paid his postage, and so we shall to every man, di rectly or indirectly, who in these times sends us a letter with .postege not paid. It is a small matter in fact, but great enough in principle generally, to tell very plainly whether a correspondent is acquainted with the proprieties of business intercourse, or if acquainted with them,whether he has enough respect for the courtesies marking business men to practice them. ' 3" The Enquirer calls the prohibitory act an infamous law an outrage, and an absurdity. A week"' a jo 'the same . writer said: "The people should allow this law to be ex eculcd fairly and fully. Let it be. tried and let experience test its excellence or its worthlessccss. I would counsel no man to interpose needless obstacles in the way o the execution of the law." We presume then, the editor thought anything he might say would be no obstacle whatsoever in the way of executing the law. Very likely no but such language as calling this law in famous, tfcc, from a responsible source, might do much towards encouraging the mutinous spirit already exhibited by some in reference to this law. This "pauper clerk" has opin ions of his own, but he don't own the same opinions any two days consecutively. Far tb Journal. A : Mr. Editob: A week or ten days since the subject o our State naturalization law was adverted to by the Evansville Journal, and a correepon dent, who suggested to our legislators the propriety of repealing the law, or striking it from our Statute book, and conforming to thohws of the United States. Since that time I have heard nothing on the subject. Are tbe members of our Legislature afraid to handle so delicate a subject!. Are they afraid , to deny the foreigners who arc pouring in upon us by thousands, , the privilege of the elective franchise before they have become citizens of the United States! I hope not, and trust that the members of our present Legislature will give the subject that consideration it deserves, and retrieve the State from that odiurn which is attached to it by every other State in the Union and by every honest American citizen. ; - CIVIS. Something has been done, Civis, enough at least to show the subject has not been entirely overlooked. On the 14th inst., a report was made in the House by Mr. Clark, of Rush, that amendments to the constitution are properly to be made by joint resolution; and one report among others embraced certain amendments of which the following was one: "To permit no foreigner to vote unless naturalized under the laws of the United States, and a resident of the State six months." A motion was made to indefinitely postpone the joint resolution containing these amendments. Lost ayes 33, nays 53. Laid on the table and 500 copies ordered to, be ptinted. We presume the matter will be attended to before the close of the session. Patests to Ikdiahiaks. Mr. G. T. Ketchum, of Bedford, Lawrence county, in Indiana, claims the invention of an apparatus to prevent tbe cars running off the track in consequence of passing over obstacles. The Scientific American thus describes it: Upon one of the axles of each truck, a pair of arms are placed loosely and the arms of each pair of trucks are connected with a longitudinal rod, and so arranged that when either pair of wheels is thrown off the rails the ends of the arms mentioned will come in contact with tbe rails and serve as guides. Messrs. F. B. Hunt and Elias Nordyket of Richmond, Indiana, have obtained a patent for an improvement in bolting Hour. The American says of it:. It embraces the expanding and contracting of the rotating brushes which act against the inner surface of the wire cloth of the bolt a nd force tbe flour through the meshes, the brush es bearing with a greater or less pressure against the wire clotb, according as they are adjusted. Adjustable spouts are 'also employed and so arranged that the : bolted flour may be separated at various points under neath tbe bolt, according to the nature of the grain that is being ground.

The Pittsburgh - Gazette, relates u pitiabli.tale of the suffering and starvation of four families of German emigrants, who arrived in that city from New York during the sever winter. They.were all , sick, half naked and half starved, and, notwithstanding the families have been cared for by the benevolent of Pittsburgh, thirteen of the party have died. When they left Germany the families consisted of twenty-two persous, feer men, four wemen and fourteen children.! Two of the women died at sea, one child in New York, and now but six of the whole number are living, all of whom are still sick. The Gazette says: The cause of this terrific trajedr in real life must be written down in the annals of emigration. When these families trrived in New York, they were scarcely covered with clothing; the weather being intensely cold and they without muney, they were consequently freezing and starving to death all the way from New York to this city. Their constitutions received a severer shock than they could bear, and they lingered in agony a few days, beyond the power of man to save them, and dropped into untimely graves. Kind bands, prompted by generous hearts, were ready to soothe their dying agonies, but they could not averet the impending death, a (0. We still sey the Enquirer snd.other Old Line organs "favor Chapman for State Printer." We do not mean to say that Chapman would be the choice of these over all other Old Liners, but that they favor him. The Enquirer has been- showing him especial favcr on several occasions; and we have no doubt would regard his election as a triumph over the wishes of the Republican party. Machisery Blacksmithisg. We call attention to the advertisement Of Sir. J, J. Morris, who is prepared to do all kinds of machinery Llacksmithing and heavy forging at Mr. Newmau's old stand. Mr. Morris is an old experienced workman snd can give satisfaction. We recommend any of our steamboat or mill friends who. want the services of a blicksmith at Evansville, to give Mr. Morris a call. He is prepared to do all kinds of work sppertaining to his business at low prices and in the best style. Fkee Passes The editor of the Piqua Register learns from reliable authority, that editors and others are still allowed to pass free over the Dayton and Michigan Railroad from Piqua to Toledo, the Columbus, Piqua and Indiana Road from Piqua to Union, and portions of various other roads of tbe Slate affording equal facilities. The roads named, a3 well as those refer red to, says the Louisville Courier, are, of course, as yet unfinished, and therefora need the good offices of the press to push them forward to completion. After that event "the lax imposed upon them by carrying editors free," will be discovered .to ;be an incredibly onerous one," and "retrenchment" will be the order. ITIurdernt Ilarou Sara. A resident of Jackson, Louisiana, furnishes the Baton Rouge Advocate of the 7th in stant, with the following particulars of the highway robbery and murder. of ä youth named Mays, on the 2d instant: ' "Mr, Mays had gone to Bayou. Sara, and on Friday night, on hh return home, when about fire miles from Bayou Sara, he was murderedj then dragged into the woods and robbed of all the property about his person, which consists of money, a watch and pistol. His body was found on Saturday, and brought to this place yesterday for interment. He was killed with a stick or club. No particulars have been ascertained yet of the act. Tbe general impression is that, he was killed by negroes. ; Mr. May was a young man fifteen years of age." '

"A' SlJtcRD ClTThe New York and Erie Railroad ofEcc in this city was vesterdav the scene of an incident which Is worthy of be ing rectrded with the evenU of the day not oniy Because h wh a gooujoke, but because it bears on its face a moral. An old man enters the office in age' apparently verging on three4 score; his clothes arc of coarse texture, ventilated in some places, and rather dingy withal; his head, with its long locks, is covered with a hardworn beaver;-his, face, the lower part of which la Ornamented with a grizzly gray beard, has an humble appearance, and his dull eyes have an imploring expression; he lias a folded paper in bis hand, and, advancing to the desk of the first clerk, he extends it. Clerk Go away," sir; I havu't anything for you; . Old Man- (Brightening up with a look of surprise) But, sirClerk No buts about it, sir; I tell you I have nothing for you. Go out. The old man, With a mingled look of surprise and indignation, parses on to the desk of another Clerk and oilers the paper. Clerk Dont interrupt me sir; get out of the office; I give nothing to beggars. The truth begins to reVeal itself to the old man's understanding; that last word has re kindled the fires of his youth; his face glows and his eyes ilash with indignation; he is about to retort sharply upon the man who called hi ei a "becrjrar,", when a third partv interferes, and directs Iiirh lo'lhe Cashier, to whom tho old man hands the papers. The Cashier unfolds them, and finds, instead of begging ccrtificotes, New .York and Erie Railroad Income Bonds to the amount of ten thousand dollars! , Cashier looks "surprised the old man demands his money Clerk No. 1 takea a seat on the cross-bar of his desk, out of sight Clerk' No. 2 turns red, purple arid white by turns; the old man receives UU money and makes a noisy exit, mumbling something ab jut counter-jumpers and broadcloth. .V.
