To the People of Indiana. The Stale Central Committeee of Indiana congratulate ibeir Democratic biethren of all parts of the State, up m; the unprecedented and brilliant victory so gloriously achieved at tbe State election held on Tuesday, the 12th Ootober inat. Never has soch a sweeping and decisive result crowned tbe efforts of the Democracy of Indiana at any previous election. Never has tbe banner of Democracy been brne so gallantly ns in the recent contest. Tbe whole State has risen in her might, and with a most unanimous decision declared thai she will not permit the Whig party to role r to govern her in tbe grea Legislative, Judicial. M Executive departments. You have a No emphatically decided in ten of the eleven Congressional Districts, that in the councils of tbe nation, Indiana must be represented by good and true Democrats. lo these selections you have chosen men of sterling integrity, of talents, and of reliable Democratic principles men who are truo to the State, to tbe people, and to tbe Union; who will nobly and honestly sustain a Demooralic Administration of the national government, and zealously labor for the gl'iy and welfare- of the whole people, and of our common country. The political character of our General Assembly is such as to give full assurance that a deserving Democrat will be returned as Senator of the United States, in place of the lamented Whitcomb. This result is not only gratifying to us, and to yourselves, but it is hailed with joy and exu'tation throughout the States of this great confederacy as a prestige of complete victory in the approaching Presidential election. Indiana has fullilled he expectations of her Democratic friends iu tbe other States of this mighty Republic. Her Delegates to the Baltimore Convention had pledged her as a true am! reliable Democratic State. Her oi a tor . h-r statesmen, and her citizens, had given pledges of her fealty to principle, of her adherence to bei faith, and ol tbe readiness and ability of tbe people to carry the State for Pierce and Kinp. Whiggerv lie- prostrate and defeated in Indiana. Her vain boastings have doubly overwhelmed her. Her prophets and her wise-men are astounded and have no valid excuse to offer. The people have spoken, and the truth has flashed upon tha astonished and infatuated men who claimed this as a Whig State. Every artifice, every design, and every stratagem has been used and attempted by our adversaries, to entrap and mislead our Democratic friends; but all their attempts have proved abortive, aud have re-aeled upon the authors. Wc acknowledge oar many obligations to oar naturalized and adopted citizens, and are proud that their good sense and unflinching integrity has enabled them to vindicate themselves and tbe Democratic party ol the State from the malign aspersions and influences of the Whig leaders and orators who have endeavored to dissuade them from acting with us. The past Is full of glory is cheering and pleasing to contemplate The future promises a double repast of pleasure and of tiiumph. To realize our well grounded hopes and to secure permanently all that we can rationally desire, in a political point of view, we must make one more great effort one more grand display of our power and our numbers. On Tuesday, ihe 2d day of November next, tho Presidential election will 1- held i.i every State in this Confederacy. Every patriot will uive that day to his country. Every true Democrat will go to the polls and vote for tbe sake of his principles. He has every inducement, every encouragement to do bis duty. Although we have so signally defeated our opponents, they still cherish their hostility to our men and to our principles They will adhere to their secret organizations; they will hope to find us lethargic and neglectful ; md that bv industry and management ou their part they will despoil us of our strength while we are asleep. Already have some of their leaders asserted that we cannot maintain our strength. Already have they hurled defiance in onr teeth, and said they will overwhelm us in November with shame and defeat. Sball this be true, or shall we again and forever crush their now broken ranks and routed forces! Let every man consider himself n committee of vigilance, and see that no raud or deception be praoticed upon himself or upon his neighbor. Let every voter be brought to the polls, and 'et vigilance and rare be the watch-words. Our proud old Democratic standard has been borne aloft triumphantly through the State contest, aud now waives over us gloriously Who will be so base and recreant as to permit that standard to be wrested from us and

to trail in the dust beneath the tread of Whiggery? Our sister States are gladdened by our noble deeds Indiana takes the lead. She is the van-guard of De mocracy in the Union. Her sister, Obin, has done nobly, and will try to swell her numbers to equal our majority. Whilst we will roll up our XU.UOU or Z3,U0O majority, Ohio sends form from 15,000 to 20,000; and that noble old Keystone State, Pennsylvania, has gallantly spread out her roll with about an equal majority with Ohio. Maryland, ever glorious Maryland, gives token of her Democratic strength and spirit. Connecticut, by her late elections, promises a full Democratic victory; and every sign from almost every State, pro claims the almost total annihilation of the Whig party. Indiana bids lair to be tbe banner state All that is wanting is, that no Democrat shall be found asleep on his post. Only a lew days and the tale will be told, and that tale will be the death-knell of Whiggery. Where is the man who will stay at home when s ranch is at ataksl Brethren, Indiana has covered berselt with a mantle of richest glory, and her sons are proud of her name. Her standard bearers have nobly led her on. The center of the enemy has been broken, and his fllanka are turned, his forces aie scattered and beaten, bat we must press on to complete the victory. Ihe price of liberty is eternal vigilance. He .- not a ooou citizen who reluses to vote his principles We hope, in conclusion, in a few davs, to be able to announce to you that the majority for Pierce and King in Indiana is greater than that given to our highly esteem-J Governor and the State ticket. Will yo'u all help? Will you, every man of you. turn oat and voter Let the result at tba ballnt-box answer these questions. W. J. BROWN. A. F. MORRISON. A. D. GALL, N. BOLTON. J. P. DRAKE, JOHN CAIN.

The Hartford Times ol Wednesday, has returns from 83 towns, of which fiftrj-five are Democratic, and torn-ty-eight Whig showing a Democratic gain e fen tosen j against a Whig gain ol five. The Times comments on these important and brilliant j results as follows: 1 "We did not expect to do bettor tban last fall, when we had it trongly on our side, but we find that we are i making handsomo gains on last fall's result! Whig- ! gery is no where in the Connecticut fall eleotions. ! 'This glorious result tells an unerring tale. It , heralds to the world the fact that the popular tide is . witn toe usmooratt, and that the Democracy of Con- 1 necticut will be triumphant at the Presidential election ! next month." The Whigs made au effort in these elections. They made great preparations, and sounded load appeals to their friends. The Courtnt of last week said of the coming town elections: .i t-l - . . ... iney are important elections important in their ! aaltance in carrying tho State next Sprincr but still more important in the influence which they have over this Fall's election, in this State and others. Every town that you gain from tho enemy next Monday, will be hailed as a Scott victory, and an omen of success.

James W hitcomb. In our paper of yesterday a telegraphic despatch aunounced the death of Hon- James Whitcomb, one ol tbe senators from the State of Indiana. Mr. Whitcomb had, during the last twelve months suffered from severe indisposition, which disabled him Irom giving his usually zealous and ethoient attention to business. He was a gentleman of great and varied attainments, a profound lawyer, a ripe scholar, a wise and honest statesman. He had held many offices of honor and trust under the State and general government. Ho had been governor of Indiana. Commissioner of tbe General Land Office, and at tbe time of his death was a member of the United States Senate. It will bo remembered that in 1840 General Harrison carried tbe State ef Indiana by an overwhelming majority. MrWhitcomb was then in the city at the head of the General Land Office, and soon alter tbe iustallation of the Whig administration he was removed from office at the bidding of the inexorable Ewing. The Democrats of Indiana hailed bis return to the State with joy and immediately selected him as their champion in the gubernatorial contest whieh was then ooming on. The odds were greatly against him. Bigger, tbe Whig governor of the State, and the Whig candidate for re-election had at the preceding election triumphed over the popular and eloquent Howard by some eiht or ten thousand majority. The Democrats considered the contest hopeless, and the Whigs detided Whitcomb's presumption in sutienng his name to be used as a candidate, boldly as serting that he would be beaten by more than twenty thousand majority. Whitcomb was nothing daunted but entered the contest with cheerfulness, resolved to do his whole duty to his country. He visited every county in the Mate, made more than one hundred speeches and, to tbe astonishment of friends and opponents planted the Democratic banner in triumph on the State Capitol. The State was thoroughly revolutionized, and from that day to the present has been unfaltering in her support ot Democratic measures and men. i Senator Whitcomb was well acquainted with General fierce and Lolonel King, tbe standard-bearers ol De mocracy in the contest now coinr? on : and the last nub lie political letter he ever wrote was addressed to the committee of th6 Tammanv Society, on the occasion of ' their celebration of the reunion of the Democracy of the j State of New York, in favor of Pierce and King. Th I letter will be read at this time with interest: Washington City, June 25. 1S52. Ge.vtlxmen: I most sincerely thank you for your kind j invitation to participate in the festivities with which the I Tammany Society propose celebrating the approaching i anniversary ol our national independence. iNothing oould afford me more pleasure than to be present on an i occasion which promises the gratifying entertainment to every true democratic heart, ot betioldin the noble ; sons of St. Tammany smoking the ealumet ot reconcili ation a sure augury of a triumph to the great republi car Par,vi which baa never been defeated but by di-sen 810,18 ,n lts own ranks. The standard-bearers chosen to lead us to victory in the approaching contest are worthy ef tile high honor that was conferred upen them by the united Democracy of the w! ole conntry. Franklin Pierco and William R. King are men whose characters ' (he strictest scranity. No blot will be found on their moral reputations, no inconsistency in their advocaoy and support of Democratic principles, no want f devotion to their eountry in all situations and under every emergenoy, aud no equivocation or evasion in the enunciation of their opinions upon questions of public policy But gentlemen, I am an invalid, and recret that I cannot be with you. I therefore respectfully request iim you win propose in my name, to our brother Demo crats who may be assembled on the occasion, the following sentiment: The Union of the Democratic Partv and the Union of .i - . mm.:. .. : -sr. me Mates: With this motto inscribed upon our banner nu cnensnca in oar Hearts we co lorth lo battle: and l. .

The Detroit Free Press says: It is now generally believed that ihe noble Irishman, Smith O'Brien, the high-souled and daring champion of the people, against their hereditary oppressors in the Green Isle, is slowly and severely pining his life away under tbe influence of climate and the rigors of his' confinement in the faraway penal colony to which he was transported. The thraldom of tyranny to which he is daily subjeoted, is said to have almost done its fatal work on the noble victim. Yet there is no throb of sympathy for tue poor captive, in the boscms of the present Whig administration at Washington. No strong hand was stretched forth to interpose between O'Brien and his jailors, even though aid was besought by thousands and tens of thousands of our citizens. The Dublin Nation, in a stirring appeal to its countrymen, to be up and doing before it is too late, exclaims: There is no time now for coolness and deliberation ; for every word we speak there is a throb the less of life in the heart of the great exile. Is he to die far off in that dismal priaoa-house under the ministering hands of Dennison and of Hampden? Sball bo pass away with that terriblo lorging of the soul unfulfilled for sortie loved presence t For one breath of the air of freedom and of home? Is it written that Smith O'Brien shall die this bitter death, and no strong voice be lifted up in remonstrance and denunciation? There may be vmpathy in the hearts of the people, but it is weak and voiceless - Fatal Duel. On Tuesday evening last, after our paper went to press, a duel came on on tbe line be tween Favctte and Scott counties, at 5 o'clock in the evening. 1 he parties were Thos. White, a son of Mr. Zachnrv White, of Woodford, and Benjamin Johnson, a son of Capt. Henry Johnson, of tbis city. The challenge was given by White on the day previous, and tbe weapons were double-barreled shot-guns, loaded each with a sjngle ball, and the distance lortv yards. At the first fire, White fell, the ball of his antagonist passing through his brain and killing him instantly. Johnson wan not injured. They were both respeotable younjr men; Johnson not more than twenty or twentyone, rind White about twenty-five or twenty-seven years of age. Of tbe circumstances wich led to the unhanpy affair we know nothing. Lexington (Ky ) Statesman.

Scott's Communication in National InttUencer, Dec, 1844. Canght Again. Tern-coat Tilden has been caught again in his tiials to trick the Free-Soiiers. He first pretended to have confidential advices through Senator Wade, that Scott was a FrtfSoiler. This was proven false on all hands. Scott denied ever holding any such conversation with Wade, and Wade denied writing any such letter to Tilden. The next dodge, Tilden goes down to Mt. Vernon, and pretends that in a confidential talk with Hale, in this city, the latter expressed himself as satisfied with Gen. Scott's position as a Frte-Soiler. Hale hears of it through a letter addressed to bim at this place, and this morning publishes a letter denying the whole matter, and showing up Tilden as a bate irrpotttr. Senator Wade was caught in a similar scrape at! Ravenaa, and when brought face to face with Mr. Hale, hed to sat his own slanders, and slink ont of sight.

His services in tbe Senate however, were so highly appreciated that on tbe resignation of Levi. Woodbcbt.

While they have also so strongly appealed to tha confidence and regard ol his lellow-ooun-trymen throughout the Union, that IN 1 8 5 3, I He will, on the 4th of March, be inaugurated at Washington, as the CHIEF MAGISTRATE OF THE REPUBLIC. Eleventh-Hour Inventions The Democracy of the different States mast be pre pared for the usual eleventh-hour fabrications of tbe Whigs We know that a new series is about being let loose upon the country. The authors of tbe falsehoods and slanders of the present campaign , which have alreadv been so completely and so triumphantly refuted, will not hesitate to resort to the same system again before the election is over. In 1844, it will be recollected that a statement was set on foot at the last hour of tbe campaign, that Mr. Polk, the Democratic candidate, bad the negroes on his fsrm branded with the letters J. K. P.; and this atrocious calumny was used as a favorite weapon of Wbiu leaders. It was finally proved to be a falsehood, made out of the whole cloth, without a shadow of truth to rest upon Since tbe present campaign has opened, we have had a number of deliberate and abandoned fabrications from the same prolific source ; and it was owing entirely to the watchfulness and tbe determination of the Democracy that these fabrications were discovered and exposed. Our political friends must be on the look-out for all descriptions of these eleciioneerins infamies; and they should ba prepared for even viler vulgarity and blacker abase than that whioh was heaped upon Gen. Jackson and James K. Polk. IVathingttn Union. Who is General Seoul "We most question General Scott's qualifications for the position to which some of his admirers would elevate him.
