OUR NEST SENATOR. SPIRIT OF TUE INDIANA PRESS. cohmbxt prom aix' parts ck the state m'donald thk favoritk. From the Salllvan Democrat. Mr. Voorhees is making a canvas for the enatorsbip. He was lately at Lawrenceburg and Washington, Daviess county, and la posted for Vincennes on the 17th. f From the Richmond Irdependent. Candidates for United States senator are looming up. The U one named is Mathew R. Hull. Mathew i preferable to the "tall Sycamore," but the sute djea not require the services of either In the Senate. From the Columbia City Post. The Hon. J. E. McDonald's chances for the enatorsalp from Iudiana seem to be improving every dy. Voorheen U practically out ol the race. The democracy ot Indiana will not send a salary grabber to the Senate. From the Terre Haate Uazet te.J The Cincinnati Commercial is authority for tbe statement that a branch office for the election of D. W. Voorhees to the Henate has been opened in that city. V erily a prophetic not without honor save in his own C5unty. From the ymonr Democrat. We say without fear ot contradiotiou, that there were but tew tuen in Congress duriDg th mneyears the II m. D. W. Vo-jrhoes wa a rcprrentaiivP, who were absent from their diiti in the house more" frequently than Mr. Voorhees. Kroni the Litnsport Pharos. The printers of Terra Haute have held a meeting and p4Ho l rwdutfons expressing their a Jmirv loa of Mr. Voorhee.s, and recommending bim as a suitable candidate for the United Stares Sönta. ft would seam that every string is to be pulled. From the Waterloo Pre. Toe McDonald rneq charge that Voorhee pledged hiuose'f last summer not to be a candidate kr the Uuited States Senatorsbip. At the time Dm committed this little indis cretionbe suppose.! that the republicans would carry tbe legislature. fFrom the Seymour Democrat.l

Voorhees friends claim that

he stands

upon the financial plank of the late state platform. Does ha indorse that plank which says that we favor a return to specie payments as soon ai the busiues of the country will iustity t? If ho favors inflation he

caunotcoDsis'.eiitly iu Jorse thit part of the platform. From the Bartholomew Democrat 1 Voorhees ha thought it necessary to take the stump in the senatorial race. This course is infreoun', though there is at leant one promiuarit precedent lor it, with the difference that this was a joint canvass, while Voorhees docs not even invite a reply to his argument. ' From the Sullivan Democrat.

It is now claimed that the salary-grab accusation against Mr. Voorhees has been most successfully answered Dy Mr. V. in his late speeches, it turnsout, then, that the de nunciation that act in our late state platform was an error. Ben. Butler shoui 1 have an opportunity to run his race over again. If not let him öe cauonized as a martyr to an unjust prejudice. From the Lojanspart Tha-os. Nine-tenths of the democratic voters of Cess county, could they give expression to their opinions upon the subject, prefer Mr. McDonald to Mr.Voorheos for United States enator. We have yet to meet with a single prominent democrat but who regards the election of Mr. Voorhees as inimical to the beat interests of the party.

From the New Albaay Leiter-Standard. The Hon. D. W. Voorhees will make a speech at Vincennes to-morrow night. It is tobe of a political character, but we sincerely trust that the honorable gentleman is not inaugurating a system of appearing on the huntings as a claimant lor the enatorship. It would be in bad taste, and injure bitn in the estimation of many of his own friends. From l bo Winchester Journal. The Richmond Free Press freely forgives Dan. Voorhees for hia vote in favor of the salary grab, but can not forgive McDonald, because be is charged with being false to the great financial principles of the democratic party. To the average dmocrtic mind, that salary grab business was not so bad after all they only used it during the campaign for political effect. From the Washington Enterprise.

Tbe Hon. D. W.Voorbete delivered a speech in this city, one week ago last night, to a

large and attentive audience. His views

tirxm the currency question were very gen

rally indorsed, but many who expected

to hear a pch without politics were disappointed in that particular. We believe be

is tb choice of a large majority of the people in this part of the state lor United States

senator. He is undoubtedly the ablest states man in the state. From the Logansport Star.

Of all tbe democrats prominently spoken

of for United States senator Judge Hoi man I certainly to be preferred. He baa made an

excellent and honorable record of himself

and the state, as a member of tbe lower House, and we doubt not would make one

-equally as excellent in the Senate. He is

net taiuted with tbe salary grab, and is

mentally tbe equal cf any of the gentlemen

mentioned in connection "villi the place, Iiis friends are urging bim vigorously. From tbe New Albany Ltdger-StandarJ

The Indianapolis Sentinel is publiscing from day to day the opinions of the press ot

the state upon the senatorial question

Frooi the extracts published it appears to

be about np and tack between Mr. McDon

ald and Mr. oorbeev it anything tuck Las a little toe advantage, with a fine pronpect between tbe t vo ot bringing about just suen

a result as was descrited by the Arkansas

woman between her husband and tbe bear,

a little ol toe d est hght" that any one

ever saw. f Fron the Salllvan Democrat.

There la a disposition men I fee ted in certain qua ten to extenuate tbe conduct of ihoae vbo voied for the salary grab because

the same congress repealed tbe franking privilege law. inus saving two milliou oi

dollars to tb9 poatofllce department. If

tbe revenue of that department

A the government had increased

that amount, or If by virtue ol tbe abolition of the franking privilege tbe mails wero earned that much cheaper, there -oiizbt be some force In tbe argument. Tbe

carrying 3f tbe mails cost precisely as much aa before, and a debate inongress on the day Mr. Voorh made bis speech In Washing

ton. Daviess couuty, brought out the fact

that the d?loH in the postal revenues was

greater than tbe year betöre. From the Terre Haute Joarn&l. We have beretoiore explained Mr. Voor

bees' absence at tbe time of tbe passage of

the gold bill in the House. The committees

of the House were not jet appointed, and no regular business was being callsd od. Cen. Sehen ck sprung the gold bill In tbe House on Friday, February 12th, when there were firtv-five members not in their

under tbe geg rule, without an opportunity for a word pf debate, forced its parage. Had Mr. Voorhees been present he could not have opened his inoutn in dlacussbrn and bis vote would not have prevented its passag. A to h!s position in regard to it no one ever entertained a doubt. From tbe Terr Haute Express. The communication from Mr. McDonald, di-cuseing his candidacy lor the Senate, published in this issue, is very creditable to that gentleman. By saying so much we do not intend to indorse the views that he expresses, but only to commend the candor and manliness of tbe man. Mr. McDonald has been accused of a disposition to compromise with his own convictions in order to secure a seat in tbe Senate. He says in his letter that he stands squarely by the financial utterances in his Greenca9.Ie speech, and that he is very anxious to go to the Senate. This is explicit and straightforward, without the shadow, even, of "irlmming." Mr. McDoiald would honor the state if be should ie elected to tbeSsna.e, but bis views on tbe rroney question are such as to commend bim to the sweets or prirate life for some tima to come. From the New Harmony Enquirer. Wereproduca in another coluaiu an article from the Evansville Journal quite complimentary to our disiinuised representative in congress, th Hon. W. K. Niblack. This compliment is all the more valuable be?auseUU just, an 1 coming as it does from a political opponftnt, may be counted as disinterested. We know that Judge Niblack does not aspire to senatorial honor, but should he be chosen lv toe incoming legislature to succeed Mr. Pratt, we feel very confident that Indiana will be honored" by tbe selection. If Southern Indiana sapplie the next senator, and we certainly think it 1 entitled to do so, we know ot no gentleman

who would be more acceptable to tbe whole poonle than -J 'juge Niblack. From the Vincennes Sun.

In favoiirig the election of the Hon. D. W. Voorhees for United States senator we do not wlihtobe understood as making any personal warfare on Mr. McDonald. We regard Mr. McDonald very highly as a gentleman and as a lawyer, but his views are not what we believe to be for tbe best interests of the Western people; therefore we oppose him. We have carefullv refrained from saying a word against Mr. McDonald which would wound the feelings of himself and friends. But we can not sav the same for the papers wiiich

have advocated his claims. Ou the contrary, tlif ir columns have beou filled with tbo most unmeasured abuse oi Vooihees. This abuse has sometimes decendf d to the lowest depta of vulgarity and ill-breeding. Voorhees and McDonald'are both too good men to bo slandered, and we have regretted very much tbeoourseof soiueof the journals towards Mr. Voorhees. We propose to keep on in the wav we have cothmenced, and, wt.ile fighting for Mr. Voorhees, we shall not abuse Mr. McDonald. From the New Harmony Register. Our friend Dr. Thomas, editor of the Vincennes Sun, is so strong in bis advocacy of D. W. Voorhees to the senatorsnip that, in our humble opinion, be lacks discretion. He says: "We do not know what Gov. Hendricks thinks or intends to do, but if he knows what is good for him ho will keep bis flnger out of the senatorial pi's this w inter. It be is an aspirant for the presidency he can not afford to make enemies of the hosts of friends of Mr. Voorhees, who are scatterod from Maine to Texas. Their influence would likely be felt in a national convention."

This looks too much like an attempt at nlimidation and a desire to crack the whip

over tho shoulders of the members of our

next legislature an act that is no longer

tolerated in this age ot progress. Go a

little slow, doctor. You can't make the

people believe that Governor Hendricks, not being a candidate himself, will condescend to have a finger in " the senatorial pie" for the purpose of electing or defeating either of

the aspirants.

From the New Albany Ledger Standard. The war made by the friends of Mr. Voor

hees upon Mr. McDonald, and the personal canvass of the former gentleman for the

United States Senate, aa was tobe expected.

is producing a bad influence upon bis

prospects, it has invited discussion, and that discussion has brought to light the record made by Mr. Voorhees while in con

gress. That record is inconsistent even with

the late state platform, of which his friends

claim be was tbe autbor. It denounces tbe

salary grab, and be was a salary grabber; it condemns the gold act, by which the 5:20 wore made payable in gold, and be completely dodged that isue, deserting his democratic friends in congress: besides

there areother points which bis own canvass brought to light that are having the etlect ot

not been a very preat success. Tbe expressions of opiniou by the press cf the state are decidedly unfavoralla to the election of Mr.

Voorhees.

However, it is not our intention to go deeper into tta:; we only .want to show in a few words which effect this election would generally have. Iiis self-understood that tbe victory of tbe democratic party at tbe las: electiou would not have been possible without the aid of the independent element, which formerly stood on the side of the republican party, and turned arcund nnder tbe belief that it bad to expect from that party, only puritan hypocrisy and suppression, btit- no earnest reform. Reform, not from above, but .up from below, was tbe tocsin of tbe last campaign. Reform, not on account of tbe state, which naturally could not be better than the mass of Individuals of which it consists, but reform ot the individuals, in as far as we hohl everybody severely and without indulgence responsible for bis actions. This was and is a popular device. Tbe republican partv has always understood to beat tbe opposition in promises f reform from above. But the people have become tired r f this kind of reform, consisting in the credit mobilier s'windle, in the wholesale stealing in tbe southern Kates, in bribery and corruption, in temperance and other hypocrisy. So it turned away of these promises ol reform and decided for the ot her system, wbich promised reform from below. Then tbe salary-grablx-rs were emerged from congre3. ' Butler, Pardons and ethers were covered with tbe political pall. But, w bat etlect would the election of Mr. Voorhees have for theo,pr sitiou in Iudiana? Would it not amount to a confosMon that the promise of reform was used by it only at a trap to catch tbo voters? Would ft nut signify that U.e opposition refers only to tbeir opoonects, if speaking ot individual

responsibility, internum? not to measure

tbeir own representatives by the same

ineRsmr. Mr. Voorhses' political career is one w hich

must make bim impossible to the democracy

if this partv expects a future. He does not

stand upon the fundamental principle of his partv and never did. li s first debut in high politics has hown this, and he has never departed from this way. He commenced his official career as Uuited States district attorney for Indiana, witlt the outspoken and generally known intention to influence and lead the people in tbe sense of the dynasty at Washington ; rot to give expression to ths ideas and wishes of the people, but to inllaence the people in such a way that at elections it would timply proclaim the will of those governing. And theidoas of th9 government at that time culminated,

as is well known, in considering . negro slavery as tho greatest blessing for the United States and in nationalzing if. In tbo Sinthern conspiracy, following shortly afterwards, snd leadii g to seet-ssion, Voorhtes was to much suspicioned ot a secret understanding with tbe conspirators, that be was never able to purify himself perfectly. His congressional activity is a further proof; nobody has been absent as otteu as he vben important questions wero discussed or important votes taken. But at the time of the salary -grab he was there; seven times out o: 10 different votes which were taken before it

passed Voorhees voted in favor

of it, and only three t!mcs was be absent, and this persistency in voting for the salary grab was Mr. Voorbees last official ac'.ion.

His trrm in congress had ceased, the people

had elected another man lor his successor, and the question was, whether be should in

the last moment, transfer by his vote, $5,000

to bis pockets or not. I.-i which light would tbe opposition party

of Indiana, which has used this crime in

the bitterest manner against their opponents, stand, if they would recompeo

with tbe ofnee of a United States senator

the man who, besides Butler, has done all in

his power that this crime was committed?

Would thev not tramp into tbe ground for

tbe next ten years all confidence, all belief, and every hope on the honesty of their intentions for reform.

THE LEXINGTON CELEBRATION. THE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION OK THE BAT

TLB OP LEXINGTON, MASS. THE FLAN OF

EXERCISE.

The New York Tribune, of the 31st

nit., says: Tbe residents ' of tbe town

of Lexington, Mass., have determ

ined to celebrate, with ceremonies befitting tbe occasion, the one hundredth anniversary

of tbe "Battle ot Lexington," on April 19

1875. Messrs. Charles Hudson, M. H. Mer

riam, and "W. II. Munroe, who have been

appointed a "Committee or Invitations," have .ssued a circular, in wbich thev make

tbe following statement: The revolution

which made us an independent nation

is worthy of the very highest

consideration, and no locality can be more appropriate for commemorating

its opening sceneä than tho very spot where

oroducinc distrust in tbe minds of the dem- the fcrst blood was ned, the Urst martyrs

ocratic members of tbe legislature as to the fed, d the first resi-taxce in arms was cf

propriety of elevating him to the Senate,

tbus virtually committing the party in the state to an indorsement or bis errors and his short-comiugs. In another columu will be found an article copied from ine Indianapolis Sentinel, which pretty tborongbly exposes the course of Mr. V. in congress, as well as the Inconsistency w hich would be charged againet tbe democratic party in yielding bim a support. From the Logansport Pu&ros. Mr. Voorhees has brought that criticism upou himself of which he so vehemently complains. If Mr. V. would escape criticism

be should at once retire to the rear, where

he assured the public a few years ago he intended Kiog. There is no compulsion in

this thing ol his being a candidate; and there

is certainly no necessity in hte making b candidature bo prominent. -However, he

has the great . American privilege to work

out his own destiny in his owe way, and if

he lnl-tt on putting up bis bead be

must expect others, who 'don't like that head, to hit it if they can. In his speech ihe other day at Washington, this state, Mr. Voorhees indulged in a good deal of special pleading, bordering very closely on tbe demagogue order a thirg utterly inconsistent with that gentleman's character, and very mtch below his notions of the proprieties belonging to tte high oifice which hei so assiduously, .and somewbat in a novel way, seeking. But then that is Mr. Voorhets wr.y, and it is not for the Pharos to sa that it is an improper way to him. Such a course, however, would be inconsistent for Mr. Meonald, who doe not resort to or so much rely on the argumentum ad homkiem, of which Xlr. V. is an adept. TUR DAILT tELEÜCAPa (EKMAN,) ON TUE SENATORIAL QUESTION.

In tbe struggle, or, if you wish, Luc be can

didacy, for tbe position of a United States senator, to be appointed by the next legisla

ture, they, of course, also play the game of

exaggeration. This is done mainly by presenting the chances of the two principal candidates. Especially the friends and advocates ot Mr. Voorhees adbore to tu system of bragging in a great measure. This victory is presented every moment as unavoidable only to bring to hi side those who are not determined yet.

As far. however, as tbe press of tbe Mate is

.seats, called th previous question, and i the rofiex of public opinion, this effort has

Tbe New York Times thne speaks of tbe berolfte cf "Foregone Conclusions:" Florddi Vervain ia not only a new woman, but a thoroughly American woman. Tier mingling of .independence and modesty; hex perception ot her mother's weakness of intellect, and yet her respectful treatment of hetJealotLHy of others, resp'ect for her, and her self-reliant ection, in wbich she does not entertain one moment the tbonght even as adctubt, that she shall do what she feels to be rict all the?, and many minor little traits entirely consistent with them, indicate a creation unknown to European novelist. Mr, Iowe4is i to be congratulated on a creation which is original "in every way as a new type of womanhood, And a type truly American. This aort of Americanism in literature Is that which is to be wished for, and welcomed when itcoiuea; and it comes not by n effort for Americanism, but by the SjOontaneous and almost unconscious action of. true creative genius.
