The Daily Journal. EVANSVILLE, IND. ———————TUESDAY MORNING........JANUARY 22. =======

January J: Oar New XT. S. Senator, Governor, anil Lieutenant Governor. The greatest satisfaction is experienced amongst Republicans over the elevation three very worthy men to high and honorable offices in the State by the recent action of the General Assembly, and in consequence of the fact that the two highest State offices and one of the United States Senatorships are bestowed on gentlemen ot first-class qualifications for these positions respectively, and ot great desert on account of public services rendered. We allude to the instance where Henry S. Lane was elevated to the V. S. Senatorship to be made vacant on the 4th of March by the expiration of Senator Fitch's term, and the vacancy made by that election filled by the Lieutenant Governor, Oliver P. Morton, and the Lieutenant Governorship filled by the election in the Senate of John R. Cravens, as President of the Senate. : They are all gentlemen whom their party delight3 to honor, and who are entirely worthy all the honor conferred. Col. Lane, two years ago, was fairly elected to the United States Senate, lie went to Washington, made application for admisRion to the seat to which he had a clear right, but because of an overbearing parti zan majority against him he was prevented frnm Rwiimiricr the nrivileges to which he was entitled. And as if to make the indig nity to our State more glaring, this refusal to give Col. Lane his seat was made in direct opposition to another similar case de cided by the Senate a few years previously; Thanks to the Republicans of Indiana, Mr. Lane can now go to v ashington with a certificate that cannot be questioned. lie will go there soon and assume a seat that he should have occupied for the last two years, and which he will reflect unusual honor upon. In him the State will have an able representative in the Senate, and free principles an influential advocate and de fender. In 1856 Governor Morton ran on the Re publican ticket for the place he now fills. By means of fraudulent votes, pipe laying importations, &c, he was defeated. Had there been a perfectly fair election he would have been Governor of Indiana for the past four years. Now, thanks also to the Re publicans of Indiana, he occupies the chair of State out of which he was wronged and he occupies it fairly, constitutionally honorablv. He, too. will reflect rare credit upon the gubernatorial office. He will at tend faithfully to its duties, will require the pledges of retrenchment and reform made to the people to be carried out to the letter, and see that their interests are pro tected. Governor Morton will make one of the most efficient and popular Executives the State has ever had. As President of the Senate, Mr. Cravens will make a model presiding officer, having had much experience in that way and as a legislator. If, in God's providence, the Go ernor should be called awav, Mr. Cravens, a3 his successor, would fill the place raos worthily. The members of the party are well satis fled, so far a3 we have heard any expression with the course matters have taken in re spect to these offices, and the people of the Slate generally will never have any reason to complain. These gentlemen are emphatically " the right men in the right places." ge, We have three documents in our possession that de3erve attention and shall have it in a day or two, if we are not prevented from giving the replies space by a press of more important matter. We refer to some remarks of the Cincinnati Enquirer on the Journal's treatment of the resolutions of the Union Meeting held here on the evening of the 12th ; to a communication of G. W. McBride, Esq., of this city, communicated to the Louisville Journal; and to a Tery peculiar effusion supposed to have emanated from the scheming brain of that very peculiar individual, Mr. F. Y. Carlile, formerly of this paper, contributed to the Memphis Appeal. The latter document we shall probably copy entire. It is Carlile-ish all over, and is most fearfully and wonderfully gotten up. Life Members. Maj. Anderson and wife, President Buchanan, Lieut. Gen. Seottj Gov. Hicks, Mr. Lincoln, and Mr. Stephens of Ga., were, on Sunday, made life members of the Green Street (M. E.) Church Missionary Society, in Philadelphia, by contributions of $20 in each case. It will be seen by the Legislative Proceedings that our fellow-citizen, Mr Richard Raleigh now Trustee of the W. k E. Canal received the compliment of the Democratic vote for re-election. B3,There is no reason or necessity for any one in this community to go shabby dressed ; as it costs but little more than half the usual price to procure an elegant and tasty outfit at the fashionable and popular furnishing House in Foster's New Block, where Devlin's splendid Clothing is sold at thirty-five per cent, less than the regular prices. Lyons is furnishing many of his friends with choice articles of Apparel nt ten per cent, less than the wholesale cost in New York. USf We have received a copy of the proceedings of a Union meeting in Princeton on the 17th, which we shall publish soon. The resolutions are in the right spirit. The meeting was held without respect to party. Tbank3 to Joseph P. Edson, Esq., Joint Representative from Vanderburgh and Posey counties, for a copy of " the Fimil Report of the Committee of Wnys and Means."

The Crittenden Resolutions before t he Council Aid for tlie Soiitli Carolina Sufferers The Union Saved a Little. A memorial wag presented to the Coun

cil on Saturday evening, signed by some j two hundred and fifty persons, praying the Council to save the Union by assigning a day for an election to take the sense of the people of Evausville for and against the Crittenden Compromise. . . , , . Councilman Sauer moved that the prajer of the Petition be granted, which was seconded. - , Mr. Cook was opposed to making such an order. He was afraid the Council had no authority to meddle in such matters. He would be glad to do anything to save the Union, and if he could be assured that the election asked for would certainly have that effect he should feel disposed to stretch a point and vote for it. But as he doubted the power, unless snch assurance was given he must vote aeainst it. Mr. Chandler said he had intended to con tent himself with a silent vote against the petition, but since he came into the Chamber his attention had been called to a communication of the gentleman who claimed to be its originator, in a Louisville paper, which satisfied him of what he before had a shrewd suspicion, that the movement bad its origin in partisan and not m patriotic motives; that its object was not so much to preserve the Union of the States as to restore the umoa between the offices and a certain most unhappy class of politicians, which had recently been ejected from them. He had observed in other quarters in the North where similar attempts had been made to foist this absurd and impracticable compromise prematurely upon the consid eration of the people a3 the only alternative to a dissolution ot the Union, it had usually been under the lead of men who before the November election had refused in the most significant manner to adopt the principle of that proposition in a much less repulsive form, though they were assured it was the only way to save the Union. But they declared they dared not go before the people of the North on that principle. Why dared not ? Because their offices were at stake, and they knew that the masses of the North of all parties were determinately opposed to the doctrine of the protection of slavery in the territories. Now they are willing to abandon the great principle that they pre tended was dear to them as the apple of their eye and concede this monstrous doctrine in its most repulsive shape. Why? Because they have nothing at stake noth ing to lose and all to gain, ibey are po litical bankrupts, eager to seize upon any means however desperate to mend their broken fortunes. Hence they coolly sit down to calculate bow out of this nettle, danger to the Union, they may pluck the flower, safe ty to themselves. They make the same use of their country s misfortunes that old Mrs. Sniggens did of her husband's body ton ml in the milldani "chock full of eels." When the fact was reported to her, and she was asked what should be done with the body, she said she reckoned they had better take out the eels and "set it again. These men have just as higli an appreciation of the du ties ot patriotism as the old lady had of hu man decency. The proposition was a downright insult to the people. Just look at it ! More than 2,100 of the people of Evansville voted in November against the idea of the protection of slavery in the territories; just 100 voted for it. This prayer for another elec tion upon this question assumes that these 2,100 are now ready to go over to the 100, and under coercion and becauso there are traitors in arms against the Government, concede a great principle to threats and me naces, when they would not do it to reason and argument. What a " calm, dishonor able, vile submission " would this be. He did not believe they would do it, and if he did believe it, that alone would decide him to refuse to give them the chance. They should have no aid irom him in exposing themselves to the infamy of such poltroon ery. The memorial asks the election in" order to restore peace and harmony, &c. Is it not a strange way to restore peace and harmony to renew again the angry political conflict we hava just passed through Thtse gentlemen must not flatter themselves that this question is to be taken by default There are some of us at least who have not bowed the knee to Baa!, and who will be heard before the verdict of November is reversed. Is it good policy to enter upon such a controversy now ? What good would it enect even it decided as the petitioners desire ? Would it save the Union ? Would even the Crittenden Compromise, if passed and proffered, save the Union ? Why, only the other day in the U. S. Senate a vote was taken upon that scheme and resulted in what was considered a substantial defeat, southern men voting against it, and the news of that defeat was hailed by the Secessionists in Charleston, Washington, and elsewhere with unbounded rejoicing. They don't want any compromise. They spurn and despise you and your gifts : and yet these doughface friends of theirs can see no other way to save the Union but by saving slavery. . Their constan. and sole petition is " save slavery!" "O, for Heaven's sake, save slavery !'' They are the fellows whom Parson Brownlow describes in his prayer, who believe that " the 'ehief end of man ixrtigyer.'' ' In their treatment of this great question they reminded him of an incident he witnessed when a boy in Nashville, Tennessee. George Kitt, an " ebo-shinned, gizzard-footed nigger,'' as Gov. Wise would describe him, wbo belonged to old Kitt, another nigger, and stood in as much awe of him as a Northern dough-face does of his masters down South, in attempting to dip a bucket of water from the river, tumbled in, and after making a trip to the bottom, got bis head above the surface, and seeing the bucket floating off down the river, bawled out "Save old Kitt's bucket;" a second time he rose, and again hicry was, " Save old Kitt's bucket ;" and still a third time he appeared above the surface, and with drowning voice gasped out, " For God's sake save old Kitt's bucket." Just then Somebody in a skiff got him by the wool and dragged him ashore, and at the same time the bucket was saved, seeing which, George, as soon as he recovered his breath sufficiently, in the gratitude of his heart, sputtered out, " Gor a 'mighty bress you, massa, for savin' dat bucket. Old Kitt nearly kill dis nigger if he lose dat bucket." So with these gentlemen. It is not the danger to the Union that troubles them, but it would nearly kill them to lose slavery. It is so useful to them. .-.-.. . He wa3 for saving the Union first, then if anything in reason could he done for slavery, he was willing to do it, but he had little respect for any man who would offer compromises and concessions to traitors in arms against their country to be spurned by them. The way to save the Union was for honest Douglas Democrats and Republicans, who gave more than 3,000,000 votes in November against the protection of slavery in the territories, to stand firm to the convictions of their mind, and by displaying somewhat ot the manhood the crisis de

mands, assist in giving the administration the backbone to enforce the laws, and main- ' tain the Union and the Constitution as they i are. There were other things besides the Un

ion to be saved more important than slave- ; ry. These were poor suffering white men, women, and children, in South Carolina, to be saved from famishing for want of food. All accounts represent them in the most ! distressing condition. Starvation stares i them in" the face. Now, as these gentlemen want a vote to show their sympathy with the Southern people, let ns accommodate them. Here is a better peace-offering than the re-opening of bitter partisan controversies. He moved the following preamble and resolutions as a substitute for the motion : Whereas. We have reliable information that our fellow countrymen of South Carolina and especially of the city of Charleston are already suffering the deepest distress, and are threatened with all the horrors of actual starvation unless speedily relieved by extraordinary supplies of food; and Whereas, the dic'ates, of humanity, and the tie3 of kindred blood, overcome in our regard all considerations of the hostile attitude in which these people stand toward our common country and our beloved Union, and of the great injustice they do us of the North in the views they profess to entertain of us and by which they seek to justify that attitude, and impel us to look upon them only as men and brethren, and to proffer them of our superabundance such prompt and generous relief as brother should extend to brother in the season of his calamity. Therefore, Resolved, 1. That it i3 the sense of this Council that the city of Evansville should contribute from its Treasury, and its people from their abundance, to the relief of our suffering fellow-countrymen of South Caro lina. . , That in consideration of the necessity of prompt action to effect a beneficent result the citizens of Evansvihe be called upon to vote on Saturday the 26th inst. to authorize an appropriation of $5,000 from the City Treasury to be invested in provisions and stores for the said purpose. 3. That His Honor the Mayor and the following named citizens, to-wit : Blank) be appointed a committee to receive private subscriptions from the people of the city and county in money or provisions, and to forward the proceeds of the same and ot the city 'a contribution to Memphis enrouie for Charleston. Mr. Cook would have to vote against the substitute as well as the original motion. Mr. Chandler talked of the impracticability of the Crittendeu Compromise, but he thought his plan of pacification quite as impracticable. If we voted the relief, there wak no certainty the supplies would ever reach the suffering poor. The traitors would intercept them and appropriate them to the support of their army. It would, in fact, be giving aid and comfort to the enemy. We would be laying ourselves liable to the charge of treason uj tlefinod by Judge Smalley, of the U. S. District Court of New York, the other day. Men who had no more respect for their rights of private property than to seize ripen powder belonging to merchants of their own section, would not hesitate to confiscate supplies contributed to their own poor. Mr. Roelker agreed with Mr. Cook. He would be perfectly willing to make an appropriation for the relief of the distressed people of Charleston, if he had any hope of their receiving it. But he did not believe they would be allowed to do so, and should therefore vote against it. Gen. Gavitt and Col. Hmey were present among the audience and deiired to vindicate the object of the petition, but the Conncil declined to hear them. Mr. Foster was satisfied for the reasons offered that the object of the proposed appropriation would be defeated, and therefore moved to table the whole subject, which was carried, and the Council proceeded to its nsual business.
