Tfee Journal la ekquently indignant on account of Its fearing dlaeorered that In a few Democratic eounttea la this State, owing to some unexplained local causes, perhaps art stag from railrosd subscriptions, tfee building of court bousee and jails or from bounty tax, tfee rate of taxUlon D somjwhat larger than in this oouaty. It prophecies that a development of this fact will work a political revolution in those counties, or, to use Its own words "We hazard nothing In predicting that they leill have a more economical administration of their local affairs, or that in default thereof they will dismiss their unfaithful officers irom any further charge of their county finances, and cease to gtve Democratic majorities.” If there is m feesard In making that prediction, we enquire of our neighbor if the same rule will not hold good when applied to Republican officials and Republican mismanagement of Unsocial siTalrs? The Journal makes a much ado, If its complaints should prove well founded, over a little financial waste at the spiggot so lar as Democratic politicians or officials are concerned, but falls to notice the tinmeuae loss from the bungbols,ths profligate expenditure and enormous robbery of the public funds, which have marked the Republican administration since it has been In power. ’I had. STXvxns, in his Iste letter upon the public finances is constrained to ndmit, when alluding to the magnitude of the public debt, and the burden it imposes upon the Industry of ibe ci Nutry, that billions bed, and that million:) were yet being wasted by Republican mismanagement. And a Republican member o' Congress stated In a speech, that the stealings under the Republican •<*->»-**«*asion would amount to — ««™ P°Mlc ,,pwr.ffrnre» during the presidential term of Mr. Buchanan. If It Is Important, as the Journal Insists, for the people of a few Democratic counties to be relieved ef the "extortionate taxes” Imposed upon them bv the mismanagement or di-honesty of their officials. Is it not of far greater importance that the people should be relieved of the extortionate taxes Imposed upon them by incapable and dishonest Republican officials, whohavs had ( barge of the government since 1861, and have wasted, as the leader of the Republican party of Congress admits, billions by mismanagement, and who still continue to squander the public funds. The vote of the people In the recent elections made the Republican plunderers squirm. It is evidence that they will not be long content to pay enormous taxes for the luxury of Republican rule. It has proved, by a few years trial, s very costly experiment. Even the Interest upon Indiana’s portion of the public debt of the General Government, is more than our entire tax for the support of the State, county and local governments. Including the interest upon the State debt and the levy for its extinguishment, a debt, the gigantic proportions of which have been swelled by the mlsmanag ement an< * robbery of the Republican officials, yet the Journal can only see a lack of economy in the administration of the local affairs In a few Democratic counties. In view of the financial condition of the country, and the enormous burdens Imposed by taxation, do we hazard anything In predicting that the people will have a more economical administration of the government, a result which can only be sttained by the dismissal of their unfaithful officers, and the party who have imposed extortionate taxes upon them by their corrupt management of public affairs. - ^ The Public Debt Question. The Republican press peralutently misrepresent the position occupied by Mr. Pendleton upon the public debt question. They charge that he is in favor of the is'ueof greenbacks to the amount of the Interest paying debt to be used in Us payment and, also, a violation of the plighted faith of the Government in the paj ment of its loans. Mr. Rknouxton has at ail times expressed himself, when discussing the financial policy of the Government, directly tbe reverse of what the radical preae aStrlbote te bins. Can any radical who believes a public debt a public blessing Insist upon a more faithful fuifllliLent of the national engagemants than did Mr. Pkndt.kton In hie late Milwaukee speech? We quote the following passage from It: The public debt of the United States, as I stated to you before amounte to fJ,000,000,000, $2,200,000,000 or more le In a liquidated form, and bears Interest. $800,000,000 more are in greenbacks and unliquidated claims, and bears no interest. This is an enormous amount, and yet, gentlemen, I believe, and I think the Democratic party believes, that It should be paid, every dollar of it, principal and interest, at the time It comes due, exactly In accordance with the terms of the contract under which the loans were made. [Loud applause.] And in several speeches he made during the late political canvass, Mr. Pkxdi.kton, in suggesting plans for the liquidation of the debt at an early day, never "proposed to Increase the taxes,” or sdd one farthing to the currency. The New York World differs with the financial views of Mr. Pkudletox, but in a recent article It admits, and we use Its own words, " that Mr. Pexdlktoh Is no reckless projector seeking to disturb the confidence and unsettle the business of the country by a new and desolating Inundation of paper money. He does not even propose to inflict any considerable hardship or disappointment on the public creditors, es we think we can show by a simple and perfectly conclusive argument. The five-twenties have been selling In the market for the last week at about 107. If, therefore, their holders were paid to-day in currency they would lose seven per cent. But these bonds have, on an average, say about three years to run before the expiration of the five years, and the Interest is payable In that time In coin. With gold at 140 the excess of interest during three years would amount to seven and two-tenthe per cent., which le • little more than the premium on the bonds. It le obvious, tben, that a person who should purchase five-twenty bonds to-day, at tfee current quotations, and be paid In three years hence, would receive six per cent interest and recover tfee whole of Ms investment. Such a person would have no reason to complain either of hardship or Injustice. Tfee feet that tfee bonds are held at precisely the earns price they would be worth If payable in currency, chows that the public creditors have little reel expectation that they will be redeemed in gold. It is not, therefore, hardship and disappointment to the public cmlltore that stands In tfee way of Mr. Pxxdlxtom'n plan, but rather a high sense of nationel honor and a punctilious regard to the public faith.” BrWhen doctors disagree who Is to decide? Tfee Eveusvttle Journal moet vehemently and Intemperately denies our report of the proceedings of the Republican powwow recently held In this city. That psper eaye, referring to the radicals present, that "they didn’t squabble at the meeting,” that Mr. 0*TH was neither -'flevy nor eloquent” and "nobody proposed to humbug ibe Germans.” Our information came from a gentleman present at the meeting and be had no object In misrepresenting Its cheracter or (be acton la It. Was the editor of the Eraaevllle Journal pretest upon the occasion or does he dispute our report upon hearsay testimony? The Madison UovrUr, whoee radicalism can net he queetlosed, sustains our report in etnting that "the diversity of oplaioi would hove prevented the adoption ef any programme Her the future.” A representation of the fact was the •urn and subotaswe of our eCeaea.

BatertatuMWI at Use Herald •ffflee. The following appeared la the Indianapolts Journal ef yeaterday, and wa taka this occasion to express our oMigatloas for the uniform courtesy that has bees maatfeated by the proprietors and sdttors of that paper towards us in all our business and personal Halations, nnee wa have had charge of the HeraldSays the Journal: « With last night eloasd the first year of the Daily and Wxexly Hxrai.d under the administration of Mr. Lafe. Devlin, and upon the occasion thiTgentleman Invited n number ef bis business associates and prominent gentlemen of the city, with the editors and attaches of the papers, te n commemorative entertainment. About 6ns hundred peraone met at half past eight O’clock In the editorial rooms of the Herald, and after a half hour spent In social conuprse, an adjournment was made to the room over Lehretter ft Co.’a restaurant, where a supper bad been prepared by that firm, which, to any the least, was as fin# aa was ever set In Indianapolis, upon any occaslon. fish, flesh and fowl, of all varieties, did duty, together with ell theentreas,relishes and desserts, that a French blit of fare could have afforded. A very praiseworthy feature was the absence of any intoxicating liquors. The table was free from coarseness, and during the hour of the discussion of the various viands, the most pleasant and agreeable converse wee held between guests and boet. During Mr. Devlin’s connection with the Hkrald It la not amiss to say that the tone of the paper has boen greatly Improved, and the ability and courtesy with which It has been conducted le the beet and aurest indication of the journalistic ability of Its conductor. The relations subsisting between It and Its dty cotemporaries personally have always been of the friendliest character under Mr. D., and our beet wish Is that ths new year it enters upon this morning may be characterized with marked prosperity. We are Indebted to our evening cotemporary, the Commercial, for the following kind notice: ANNIVER8ARY SUFFER.—In response to an invitation from Lafe Develin, Esq., managing editor of the Herald, we attended a rapper, given the employes or the establishment, last night. Quite n large party of invited guests were present at the editorial rooms, and had a pleasant and social time, radical and conservative forgetting all political dlfferencea for the time. About half-past nine the doors of the Capitol dining rooms were thrown open, and the company sat down to one of the finest entertaints we have ever seen. The tables were neatly adorned with flowere and living plants, while everything edible In •^* on ^** ed in appetizing order. The h- Mr Develin. whose uniform courtesy to ihifrsSMBur during his connection with the flSRAU>, has made him personally popular. That paper has also greatly Improved under his management, and deserves the profitable support which It seems to be receiving from its party friends. We find the following In the Indianapolis special telegrams to the Cincinnati Gazette of yesterday: Life Develin. managing editor of tbe Herald, gave a fine banquet to-night to his employes, the newspaper men of the city and a number of in vited guests, It being the occasion of tbe first anniversary of the Herald under hie management. The ill-patches to the associated press from this ciiy say: The Herald Company having completed their first year to-day, under the management of Life Devlin, gave a magnificent banquet to their employes to-night. From the New York Herald. White Ham’s Garnraaraat. This paper has always maintained that the Governments of this country, as well National as State, are white men’s governments. Our fellow citizens of the Southern States have grievously erred In rebelling, against the established Government of the country, and grievously have they been punished for their error. It le quite too much to add to the punishment by subjecting them to the government and political control of the negro race; we protest against It, and we say that every white man who does not unite In title protest le false to his blood. In vindication of this view, we give place to tbe following letter from an old Whig, addressed to the late ratification meeting. He has touched the true note—* Ac negro it to be protected by law in all hit essential rights, but shall not be .admitted to the governing class: LETTER FROM HON. HIRAM KETCHUM. 29 William street, OcM§er2S>, 1867. Douglas Taylor, Esq., Chairman of the Committee of Arrangements, etc.: Dear Sir: 1 am honored by an Invitation of your committee to address tbe Democracy of New York at the grand Democratic Jubilee and ratification meeting, on the 31st ot October, instant. I hope tbe meeting may prove a jubilee of tbe whole people of tbe city of New York, and of all the citizens of other States who may happen to be present In tbe city at the time. 1 have read with high gratification tl* proceeding of the nominating conventiov, *Jb icl1 tbe meeting will be asked to ratify* proceedings were dignified, inielMS®??*- * nd highly patriotic. I rejoice to kn<*w that they have been published In pamphlet form, and hope that they may have wide circulation througout tbe State and the whole country. The utterances of that body, and tbe distingulsbed speakers who addressed it.are worthy of the State of New York. All good citizens should unite in putting down a party, now having the iscendancy la Congress, which dares to act outside and regardless of fundamental law, embodied In tbe ConatitutioB of tbe United States. What bond have we, as a people, butthe Constitution; and what security for liberty for us and our children can there be whea apolitical party, happening to be in a majority in Congress >hdl be allowed to dispense with the restraints and obligations of the Constitution? What right has such a party to be called a Union party, when It breaks the very bond of Union? Besides, there Is a question of deep interest Involved, Incidentally, in tbe expression of popular opinion to be made at the ensuing election. Shall the defendants of tbe African race among us, recently emerged from a state of bondage, be admitted to the governing cla»s? 1 object not to their freedom, to their education, and to their being protected In their essential rights of life, liberty and property; but to admit them to tbe governing class I do object; for In all past time tbe negro race have proved themselves unfit to govern States or communities. The governments of this country, and of all the States of which it Is composed, have hitherto been governments ot white men; and, in my judgment, it is better for tbe preservation of liberty to all Dices in this country that tbe governing class should remain as It was in tbe time of our fathers. These are views wfelch I should take great pleasure In elucidating and enforcing could I comply with your polite invitation to be present and address the meeting; but absence from tbe city will deny me the pleasure of uniting in the great popular demonstration. I am, very respectfully, vour fellow-citlzen, Hiram Ketchum.

A writ was Issued for ths arrest of Bivens, and be will have to suffer the law’s punishment for his scoundrelism. —The Mobile Tribune gives the following as some of the results of negro rule in thst city: "In this dty of Mobile cur white wi turn have been dragged through the streets by negro policemen; our city government has been overthrown and tbe people's money put into the haudb of irresponsible adventurers; s jury of negroes, necessarily ignorant and easily controlled by unscrupulous whites, has been empanneled to serve as a tool of the terrorists. We shall see how far the latter will succeed In using them. The negro b»rber Lankford, found guilty of a cowardly outrage, bu b«. n discharged with a ®om1nal fine. It remains Paul the editor of tbe Mobile Times, indicted for an lmaR i03r y <Sense, is to fare as well as tne negro barber convicted of a crime.” Some of the Freedmen of New Albany—How they Live. — The police, Mon. day night, in a seareh through that part of the city in the West Union suburb, known as "Contraband Quarters,” learned some startling facts as to the manner in which these negroes live. All of tbe inhabitants of the quarter Indicated were formerly slaves, and most of them are from tbe Kentucky counties b rdering on tbe Ohio river below Louisville. Iu one house visited, consisting of two rooms about twelve feet square, the police found six families, with an aggregate ot twen-ty-three persons, men, women and children, it was late at night when this house was entered, and its dense population had retired to bed—no, not to bed, but to pallets on tbe floor. There they lay, mixed up indiscriminately, and without reference to the marital relations existing between a portion of them. In this bouse four or five negro girls and men were arrested in flagrante delicto; regardless of all the decencies of life, being huddled down upon pallets made of old quilts, among babies and little children, married women and men. The sight Is described by tbe officers who made the arrests as one of tbe most shocking exhibitions of moral depravity they ever witnessed. A number of other bouses of these "contrabands” or freedmen were visited. All the houses thus visited were small and of mean appearance, and none cf them were hardly fit habitations for a brute. Yet each one contained a large population, reeking in filth, and most of them giving evidence of the lewdness of their occupants. Many of these freedmen have no proper conception of the sacred ness of the marriage relation. Most of those visited on the night in question were vicious and brutal m their actions as well as instincts. There are, however, many familiee of freedmen in tbe city who are Indnstrlouely and honestly trying to make a support for themselves and improve their condition morally, and these deserve tbe sympathy and aid of all our people. But the class of vagabond men and women we have referred to in this article is much too large, and tbe laws they daily outrage by the vileness of tbe lives they lead should be enforced agsinsttbem, and the community ridden of their presence. Such a course would be but a simple act ot justice toward the Industrious and religious portion of the freedmen who have come among ns; but against whom a strong prejudice has grown up In consequence of the bad conduct of the depraved class we have referred to. Let the police break up the negro bawdy bouses in the suburbs of the city, and drive from the town the many dusky harlots who daily fill the police court and disgrace tbe honest and decent portion of the colored population.—JTew Albany Ledger.

Logansport and Union Railway.—Our citizens will rejoice to learn thst this impor tant railway is rapidly approaching completion. Mr. Converse telegraphed from Union city on Monday lasL November 18, to William Foster, Esq., superintenpent of the Peora Railway, that seventeen miles and a half of iron will connect the track from Union city to Logansport. The grading of the road is nearly done the whole line, and there is every prospect that the road will be completed and trains running by tbe first of January. The season baa ban unusually favorable for the work, and it has been pushed rapidly.

portrays than:

That Cambridge City has become the great railroad center fa Eastern Indiana, is no longer a doubt, but a fixed tact. We have faeiiltiss for shipping to all parts of the country equal to any town in the Western States, to say nothing of the two additional lines of railroad that will be extended from our town during the next year. Manufacturers and shippen of produce hsve the advantage of shipping seven different directions, and, in fact, to all points of the compass, at this time, which Is certainly an inducement for the capitalist to seek this point. Thst Cambridge City, with its water power, and surrounded by the best agricultural land lathe Western States, togetber with its healthy location, has a bright future ahead, no sensible man will deny. It is true our town, like all othersjias its drones, men who are ready to discourage any enterprize whatever, but, notwithstanding these men, the natural advantages, together with our railroad facilities, our numerous turnpike roads, which enables the former to bring bis produce to town at any and all seasons of the j ear, is sufficient to the eye of the most skeptical, that Cambridge City is destined to be not only a great railroad and manufacturing town, but a commercial town also, and the capitalist who will now come forward and assist in developing the future of Cambridge City, will, in a very few years, double his investment. As to the character of our citizens, they are, with tew exceptions, very liberal in all their view*, socially, religiously and politically leaving every one to enjoy their own religious and politicai opinions without being

proscribed therefor.
