Tuesday's Elee Indian Rf dee med and the Rrpnbl cans Glvm Tcut to Ttielr Fiing - Last Wednesday was Indiana's grandest day. It was a day when all patriotic citizens rejoiced and made merry. It was the day that brought the news of Indiana'? redemption. It was the day that told us ihat our great commonwealth, which has for twelve long years been steeped in Democratic mire, was again free and placed in her proper place. It was the day that etruck terror to the hearts of the Rebel brigadiers and the enemies of free government. Ere the rising of "Wednesday's sun it was ascertained beyond a doubt that Indiana was a Republican State. Every good Republican gave free vent to his feelings. Business was almost entirely suspended. Old friends and associates were clasping each others hands as though they had . been separated for yeais. The crowd gathered around the Post-office by the thousands and woe be unto the prominent mr, that had taken an active part in the campaign, who in their course they met. Gov. Pinchback sallied out of h;s hotel, to see what the trouble was. Violent hands were immediately laid on him. Ue was lifted clear oft his feet and placed in the first convenient place, which happened to be a wagon, and told to speak. The Governor catching the inspiration of the day, in short but earnest speech, congratulated the people of Indiana on their great victory. The grand old veteran, Gen. Streight, the hero of Libby prison, wag treated likewise; and in his usual forcible manner expressed the joy that was bein experienced by millions of loyal Americans North, East, South and West. Other speeches were made and the entire day w is given up to rejoicing. In the evening the climax was reacned. Iluge processions formed and paraded the principal streets. Speeches were made and a general love feast was had. 'Twas enough joy in one day. CINCINNATI DEPAETMENT. The colored troops voted nobly. -We had an election here Tuesday. - Hon. C. W.
