Ol tu the approaching election It was intended as a ifisatn letter, enveloped, sea ed and placed in tbe Post ofice in this city. In no possibl way, within our knowle'-sre could this letter have com into the posscssi n of the Sentinel except by a violation of law that woa'd n I n e p-ip irator to the Star Prion. How fare il er is just lei in publu-hm-r
private letter, thus obtained, we leave for au honest
community to say.
In tbe first place, Mr. Defrees wonlJ have the public
understand that this was a written leiter, marked pii
vate. Men u not tue lact. it is pnmeu, ar.u contaii a
nothing to mark it as a private communication it is noi
a letter, bu' a printed circular. It was banded tons In

Under the circumstances, we considered it cur duty to
publish it. It was a plan for a secret operation to secure
Democratic votas for Gen. Scott. The State Central
Committee had a few days before published a circular
and requested tne Democra ic pap?rs in the Stite to eopy it. Their transactions had leen open and above board. The Journal, anJ the Wh;g ;arty may denounce
us to their heart's content, for exposing their corrupt
pians; but we lutend to go on to ''cry aloud and pare
ot." Their secret and hidden operations will b? ex posed. Tbe people shall know their movements John D. Defrees is too much of a bungler for such secret transactions. He plans well, but fails ia execution.

Whig leaders are deserting the camp.

In Indiana we have lost nothing, for we expected nothing the Locofocos boa that the soldiers in thai

mnced as cowards, "flying troopa," by Whig editors
who oppoaed the war, and prayed thai r.or troops might be welcomed in Mexieowilb "bloody hands, to hospitable graves " Will any man with one drop of manly re

"Gentlemen: We think the offinial returns will show

Plowing Match at the State Fair.
We were unable to attend tbe plowing match on last
Friday, but understand that muoh skill was manifest
d by the several competitors. The match took place n the farm of Calvin Fletcher, Jr., upon ground which
i ad been selected more than a week before tbe Fair
ommenced. Mr. Fletoher had taken the trouble toj tavc the lands staked and numbered, and everything
as arranged in the best style. The premiums being
acli a diploma and five dollars for the best speeimen f plowing not less than six inches deep, and the best
-pecimen ot plowing ten inches deep, were each award-
d to Mr. Benoni Newby, of Riehmond, a gentleman ho, wc are informed, has lived in the State for fifteen
eats, and, as the award of the committee proves, is
imong the best plowmen in the State. Tbe plow used
y Mr. Newby was from the manufactory of Beard 8t
Sinex, Richmond, Indiana. Democrats of Indiana.
The State Central Committee have issued no secret
ircul&r. Tbey have oppointed no influential oommitees whose duty it is to operate secretly and in tbe dark.
Al! tbeir aots are published to the world They appeal to their Democratic brethren to do their duty. Every!
Democrat in tbe State is placed od the great vigilance! ommittee. Tbey are expected to give one day to their
country, and to see that their Democratic neighbors all! ij to tbe election. This is ail we ask. We dont want
1
any secret tickets slipped ia their pockets. We ex-
jcct them to aot as become freemen. Tbey kuoi
heir duty and will do it. In ten days more we expect!
to be able to announce the election of Franklin Pierce!
President of the United Slates.
Fraud and Deception. Nothing more clearly indicates the desperate condi
tionof the Whig party in the present crisis, than thei
proneness to misrepresent the election returns. Floridi
is claimed as having gone Whig, when the returns show
that Broome, Democrat, has been elected Governor,
and Maxwell, Democrat, elected Congressman, and a
(decided Democratic majority in the Legislature, which
secures the election of a Democratic United States Sena
tor, in the place of Morton, Whig.
In Pennsylvania, the Democratic majority is se
down by Whigs from eight to ten thousand, when tbi returns show that it is eighteen thousand, at least.
In Ohio, tbey claim to have gained ten tbousan
votes, without stating that this gain is on the vote o
Governor Wood, who received a majority of 27,000
lof suggesting. You will treat it as it deserves.
Democrats, one word more. Stand to your arms
nc fire more along tbe whole line and the victory is
Iwou. Do your duty, and Indiana will be entitled to the
proud name of the "Banner State." Franklin Piere
will be elected President, and William R. Ki g Vice
President of the United States. Then, in tbe langua
lof Winfield Soott, will we build ban-fires and fire guns
So mote it be.
0As to the majority in those Counties, every man
knows it was made up of voters not apt to read any ot!
the papers published in those Counties, or to know!
Iraore ol Gov. Wright, than that he was on the regular!

Ividual had nothing to do in obtaining that vote. Ind. Journal.
