THE IOT)IANA. STATE SENTINEL; "WEDNESDAY MOHNTNG, SEPTEMBER 18, 1878;

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18. Tbk Massachusetts rada wish Ben Butler -was bottled up, sure enough. This indications are that the people will retire the- national bank bills, and substitute greenbacks. The Journal In its efforts to whitewash the three radical defaulters lays the-' blame on the "stabs." Tin news from Maine grows better. The tads lose the legislature, two members of congress, the governor, and a U. 8. senator. Good enough. The kid gloved aristocratic son of bis grandfather is growing old rapidly. Radicalism has a weight of infamy so great that If General Ben doesn't get from under it every bone in his body will be crushed. The Journa.1 Is still pitching into Messrs. Voorhees and Manson about salary grabbing. It ought to wait until these gentlemen go into bankruptcy and see how much of their estates is taken care of by their wives and children. Or the two thousand Indians In Lower Canada one-half are Roman Catholics. Their greatest vice i intemperance, and the priests are kept busy trying to persuade them to live lives of sobriety. When they get the whisky the religion vanishes, and the entire work of reformation has to be eone over. Christine Kixsson, the prima donna,' has lost 1,500,000 francs by the shrinkage in value of real estate in America, in which she Invested heavily during her stay in this country. After a careful calculation as to her los3 a few days ago, she said philosophically: "Well, I shall now have to go to work 'to rebuild a house of cards." . Social literary lubs are being formed all over the country for the winter season. Where a definite system of reading is pursued much instruction, as well as social pleasure, will be the result. It is well to have the course of reading, the essayists and the critics determined upon for at least six weeks In advance, and if the work for the whole period could be clearly mapped out it would be executed much more satisfactorily than wtan little or no notice ic given those who arc expected to. take prominent parts. The Rev. Mr. Vosburgh, pastor of the Jersey City churoh, has resigned his charge and left the city. He will be remembered as the minister who was tried for attempting to kill bis wife by giving her poison instead of the prescribed medicine when she was very ilL The jury acquitted him of the specified charge, bu during the trial testimony of the most damaging nature was given-by honor i-' ble witnesses. His congregation gave the matter full consideration, and as the final result of their deliberation asked for his resignation. He is now waiting for a call to another church, but it seems scarcely probable that he will secure this, the nature of the testimony against him being pretty well known. His wife remains with her friends, a'wreck of her former self. The only thing for Vosburgh Is to go as a missionary to the north pole. A Bible which had been carried during the war by a soldier was offered by him at the Minneapolis fair as a contribution to aid the southern sufferers. In his letter he says: . Minneapolis, Sept. 7, IS78. This Bible Is the property of a United States' soldier In the war for the Union In 1861 and 155. It is the only gift in my power to make This is the gift of a friend, and is prized for this reason above all price. I accept moat cheerfully this opportunity of expressing the sincerity of my friendship for those brave boys who fought in the defense of what they honv estly believed was right la the war of the rebellion. We were enemies lu war; we are friends in peace. May this be the means of carrying joy to the hearts and - homes of some poor sufferers, and I shall be a thousand times paid -for the sacrifice, it is especially requested by the donor that the Bible be sold and the proceeds given to a family, or families, of southern confederate soldiers suffering from yellow fever. D. Nkwtos, of Severance. A lady purchased the well worn volume paying for it $100. The money was sent south at once. Jl'DUE H&RTIHDALE AT RICHMOND. We are not informed as to the precise time required for the gestation of Judge Martindale's Richmond speech.' It Is a remarkably small affair, however, and we conclude could not have been more than five or six weeks in taking shape something more than the period required to produce a blue tailed fly. The judge, having bees a "life 'long republican," and.baving the "habit of getting at the gist of ' things," soc?e "new 'views on current questions" were expected in fact, promised. Bat the judge "failed" again. The speech, if pnt up at public auction, would not sell for a sufficient amount cf cash to purchase a second hand tooth brush. Judf e Martindale' speech continually remindd the reader of the Journal's tishwater articles on "current questions," and the egotism displayed in republishing such remarkably thin and stale and moldy utterances as "new views," is equaled only by the impudence of the transaction. Judge Martindale is not a statesman any more than a bug eating English sparrow is an eagle, and when he assumes to go out as a teacher of the peo pie, he plays the role of the indiscreet monkey we read about. While Morton was alive Judge Marti ndale was not given to such Indiscretions; but now, since the eon of his grandfather is making the radical party ridiculous, the judge is pushed to the front and compelled to play clown, for what purpose U is difficult to divine, unless it be to take on himself a fair share of the ridicule which Ben Harrison excites whenever he speaks. If we are correct in this surmise, then the judge answers an important purpose, for certainly Judge Martindale is never mere ridiculous than when "get4Ung at the gist of things," and exploding his ''new views" on "current questiona." There could be nothing in the whole realm of facetise better calculated to tickle a fun loving people than to see or hear

Judge Martindale bounce Senator Voorhees. The scene must have been the climax of rhetorical gymnastics. A grasshopper astride of an elephant does not 'airly illustrate the disproportion. Tire judge trying to brujh back a tornado with his old straw hat would tucceed as well as in going down to Richmond to commence a revolution in public sentiment against Senator Voorhees. If the judge wants to know how be is likely to succeed, let him purchase a tin whistle and hie away to Niagara, and toot for an hour and a half. If he succeeds in drowning the roar of the mighty rush of waters, he may hope to hush the enthusiasm.of the people in their . devotion to the Indiana statesman. The judge is unfortunate in his selection of democrats to attack. He does not hesitate, to place himself in antagonism to Governor Hendricks, seemingly oblivions of the fact that he (the judge) wears a No. 6 hat. The men who are responsible for putting Judge

Martindale on the stump ought to have given him positive instructions. He should ha7e been made fully acquainted with the calibre of his guns. The idea of blazing away at Hendricks and Voorhees and other distinguished democratic statesmen and leaders with a squirt gun, loaded up to the muzzle with gruel, is so preposterous that it is another evidence that Judge Martindale is not in the hands of his friends. In glancing through the Richmond speech for the "gist of things" and the "new views" we arrived in due time at the "financial" subdivision, which reminded us of the exploit of the Kansas poet describing a s'orm on the prairies, "in words as follows, 'to wit" : "The buUfroK rained hi tail oa high. And went bounding o'er the plain ; The bumblebee came rushing by, And then came down the rain. And, sure enough, here was a deluge of financial dishwater. Now, of all subjects that Judge Martindale ought to have steered clear of, tbat of finances, It will occur to most people, stands at the bead. For Judge Martindale to approve and applaud, and hug and caress, and toot a policy that has taken him, with his blocks and lands, houses and shop, and thrown him neck and heels into bankruptcy along with several thousands of other enterprising gentlemen, is an exhibition of imbecility, of blind adhesion to party, of pure unadulterated demagogism so wretchedly out of place, so puerile and at the same time so dishonest, that in contemplation it commiseration and contempt contend for the mastery. There is in it such a cruel disregard of the distress that pre vails, such a goose like cackling over the spoils that Shylocks have garnered, such profound Ignorance of the needs of the times and such idiotic devotion to partisan rascality, that the only palliation is the fact that Judge Martindale is deficient in brains, and this tells the whole story of the Richmond speech. THE PKES1IIE!VTIAI. FRAtU OH THE NATIONAL DEBT. Hayes, whose occupancy of the white bouse is a standing insult to decency, who wears the crime stalna upon his name with the indifference that a third term penitentiary convict wears his chain and ball, who is so insensible to' the unutterable loathing of all honest men that he still rewards the scabby scoundrels who helped to cheat him into office, is constantly wandering over the country exhibiting himself at county fairs and eating free hash. For a time this representative of crime, this rewarder of psrjury, this foul blot upon the good name of America, was content to say but little. But of late his impudence has got the better of his sense of shame, and he has commenced reproducing John Sherman's figures relating to debt, yiterest, etc, as if they were his own. He has taken the stump for the radical party in the hope, doubtless, tbat his appearance on the rostrum will suggest to the radical managers that the cam paign of 1878, like that of 1876, by the employment of frauds, forgery and perjury, can be made to pan out all right in spite of the votes or the people; that be has offices still to reward conspirators, such as "stand firm" by their frauds and willing to support them with blasphemous perjuries. .Hayes, in his St. Paal speech, like every other radical demagogue, attempted to prove the prosperity of the country by the rednction of the public debt. He places the debt, when at its highest point, at $3,000,000,000, and says that in thirteen years It has been reduced $1,000,000,000. Admitting tbat the presidential fraud states the truth, and that his reference to Hugh McCullocb, to whom he gives the credit of the financial exploit, is true, is there anything in it calculated to excite the admiration or approval of the American people? In view of events that have transpired during the period named the reduction of the public debt to the extent stated by the presidential fraud, and of which he boast, has been a national calamity of fearful proportions, and Hugh McCulloch, instead of being a statesman deserving of applause, played the part of a pirate deserving of universal execration. It should be remembered that while Hugh McCulloch nd his sncces-, sors in office, in the Interest of Shylocks, .were drawing from the people the means to pay this $1,000,000,000 of the public debt, radical officials, as has been officially shown, were stealing the revenues of the country at the rate of $100,000,000 annually, and this stealing was carried on for thirteen years, so that it is on record that radical thieves, during the period named by Hayes, stole $1,300,000;000, ths two items, paying and stealing, amounting to $2,300,000,000, within $700,000,000 of the public debt at its highest point While this paying and stealing was going forward, draining the life blood from business, the contraction of the currency was steadily progressing, and as a result of paying, stealing, contraction ami shrinkage of values, we have arrived, in thirteen years, to widespread business desolation. The country has tramped steadily to the dead march of radicalism, from an era of prosperity to a period of business prostration, bankruptcy and the poverty of the people that defies description and challenges exaggeration. Hayes and his cabinet an I all the crime cursed scamps who are holding federal offices as rewards for their villainy may continue to mass the fizures showing the reducI tion of the public debt, but their efforts in that direction will not modify the purpose

of the people to , inaugurate a policy that shall revive the industries of the country and give the people work and wages. The indications now are that Hayes will, in due time, be impeached." Tbat he bargained for the office he befouls is placed beyond question, and his deposal is demanded by every consideration of national honor. His recent efforts to keep the radical party In power by taking the'stump discloses, as nothing' else could do, the fact that he is looking forward to a trial that will bring into the boldest outline bis political deformities, and to a conviction that will sink him to fathom less depths of Ignominy.

MAIWE. Radicalism has lost its grip in Maine, and Ben Butler is knocking the wind out of it in Massachusetts. The radical 'press seem to think that the defeat of the radical party in Maine is not a matter for democratic boasting. We notice, however, tbat the Maine democrats are jubilant, and since they are satisfied, we fee no reason why democrats in other states may not rejoice. The Philadelphia Times, in commenting upon the revolution, which, It says, "was as sudden and 'unexpected as it was overwhelming," remarks: In 1854 the democratic majority of 8.818, given in 1So3, was reversed, and a republican majorIty of 16,136 cast for governor the vcte being: Morrill, republican, 14,862; Pauls, democrat, 28,306; Reed, wnlg, 1,417. Morrill (since senator) was re-elected in ISia by 8,115. In 1856, Senator Hamlin, who had Jut resigned his seat as a democratic senator and declared for Fremont, was elected by 21,540, and Fremont swept the state the same year by 23,2)9. For a full quarter of a cantury, from lo3 to 1878, there has not been even a partial defeat of repub.lcanlsm In the state of Maine, and her rising and declining majorities have been the unmistakable barometer that indicated sunshine 01 storm for republicanism throughout the nation. Ah no president was ever chosen, during the Inst half century or more, against the October vote of Penny tvanla, so republican Maine has ever declared the fate of the party by her September judgment. The election in Maine yesterday dated the overthrow of the republican supremacy in the state. It is. in no sense a democratic restoration, but it Is an utter and apparently hopeless republican disaster. Governor Conner, one of the most faithful and acceptable executives Maine has ever had, is undoubtedly defeated by the people, the' first republican candidate who has st-red discomfiture In the state for a quarter of a century. It seems quite probable that the house will contain a majority of democrats and nationals, and if so it will inevitably defeat Conner's election by tha senate, as the house, if controlled by?he fusion opposition, wi'l return only Garcelon, demo crat, and Smith, national, as the men between whom tho senate must choose. Powers, republican, is undoubtedly defeated for congress In the Fourth district by Ladd, democrat, and supported by the nationals, and the return of Hale is in doubt, with chances apparently against h Ira. In the First district, where the republicans feared defeat, and the opposition was confident cf success, Heed, republican, is re por'ed elected by a decided maj ority, showing that all calculation has been at fault in foreshadowing the result. The lesson of Maine is brief story to record. It is n republican disaster that Is revolutionary In its results. K does not recall the democrats to power In that hitherto unfaltering republican state, but it places her authority In the custody of a democratic receiver to be held until the damaged assets of the republican bankrupt can be properly disposed of. It is not a victory born of trust or a flection for any party. It is a defeat of republicanism not because the people of Maine loved the republican Ciesar less, but because they loved Rome more, and it is an admonition to all parties that there must be a nobler rule in state aim nation. It is a crashing blow to Blaine, the ablest and most heroic of all the republican leaders of the country, for It makes him the undertaker of all the troops of republican leaders in Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania. It Is the death knell or republicanism In Ohio and Indiana for 1S78. The knowledge that the radical party is to be overwhelmed with defeat in other states thrills the country with inexpressible joy. There is devout thanksgiving. The reign of thievery is to expire. The era of fraud is to disappear. The government is to be released from the tbaldom or radicalism, and there is everywhere satisfaction. The great work accomplished in Maine is largely due to democrats, and for the aid secured from nationals due credit is given. ' Indiana democrats rejoice, nationals feel good and glad only radicals are down hearted. The news will strike John Hanna like a shower bath in mid winter, and his chances for reelection a.e about equal to his being made an angel by radical votis. Democrats will take courage, and the campaign will be more then ever aggressive. riciiard w. tiiojipsox. To simply state the fact tbat Richard W. Thorn p3on, of Indiana, holds office by the appointment of Hayes, the infamous creature who occupies the office of president by virtue of the most villainous frauds that were ever perpetrated, would, under ordi nary circumstances, be a sufficient notice of his speech in the interest of his crime black ened master. Rut since Dick Thompson abandons his office to harrangue the people for the purpose of perpetuating the pawer of the radical party, he voluntarily takes upon himself thefull share of the obloquy which attaches to Hayes and to the vile gang of conspirators who cheated and lied him Into office. To be the abject lickspittle of such amoral deformity as Hayes, the co worker with such a gang of forgers and per jurersas placed him in power, and the apolo gist of a policy that has brought about finan cial ruin with all of its attendant calamities, i3 to consent to an infamous degradation, evidencing political depravity for which the English language furnishes no words adequate to a faithful description. At a time when the country Is reaping a harvest of distress, the result of cutsjs forced upon it by the radical party; when 'business is prostrate; when confidence is exiled; when industries are crushed; when idleness, poverty, hunger and rags are to be seen on all bands; when radical scoundrelism is the theme of conversation In all civilized countries; whsn investigations are dragging to the surface the men who committed frauds in the interest of Hayes, who perpetrated forgeries in the interest of Dick Thompson's party, and who under the promise of office, spit in the face of Jehovah, and outraged heaven and earth by perjuries that will stand to the last moment of recorded time as the most perfidious that were ever uttered; when all honest people bow tbiir heads in deep humiliation under the burden , of ppprobium that radicalism has

fastened upon the American name; when all these things combine to make the peo

ple demand that the radical party shall retire from power, Hayes, the disgusting political ulcer, and his cabinet tumors, start out to flood the country with streams of falsehood and fiction. Dick Thompson, sec retary of the navy, In Indiana; McCrary, eecretary of war, in Iowa; John Sherman, sec retary of the treasury, in' Ohio, and Hayes swinging round the circle, are all engaged in attempting to resist the indignation of the people and arrest, if possible, the doom of the corrupt radical party. The spectacle is one of scandalous significance. It evidences that with the radical leaders shame has lost its blush and crime all sense o.f guilt. That forgers and per jurers, thieves and the associates of thieves, public plunderers and political pirates, having won in Florida and Louisiana in 187b believe that by putting on a bold front they may win again in 1S78, and that the people will forever submit to the rule of villains. Dick Thompson's speech was in the interest of radicalism. Drawing his pay from the pockets of tha people he takes his place in the list of hash eating radical swine, elevated to office for the simple consideration of their treason to a majority of the people, and goes forth upon a mission of politicil debauchery that makes him in all regards a fit successor of Robeson for If Grant's secretary of the navy could steal under the auspices of radicalism, Hayes' secretary of the navy is found to be a convenient tool, under the auspices of the same party, to defend the reign of fraud. Dick Thompson spoke for about three hours, and it is sife to say tbat during the time he exhausted the contents of his political intestines. An emetic and a cathartic, both in full operation, would be a fair representation of the exploit of Hayes' secretary of the navy in the agony of defending the radical party. It abounded in everything but fact It was an apology for all that is deliberate in malignity or depraved in crime. It was in all regards an exhibition of official position prostituted to the basest purposes. It was the secretary of the navy licking the sores of the radical party and pampering the pestilence of Hayes' authority. The effort was destitute of a motive even inferentially patriotic, and so wanting la every political virtue that it died as soon ai it was barn. It was an exhibition of gray haired beotry with every foul accompaniment of crouching sycophancy and deformed falsehood, all die more to be deplored, because to a certain extent they are a blot and a stigma upon the navy. if. possible, worse thaa Robeson's robberies. This man Thompson, who holds office by virtue of the triumph of fraud and in defiance of the will of the American people, told his audience that the "democratic party is absolutely unfitted for the management of pub lie affairs." Under democratic management whatever glory and imperishable renown attaches to the American government was secured. Under democratic management the area of the republic more than 'doubled. Under democratic management there was honesty in office, and peace, contentment and prosperity throughout all the land. Under radical management all this was changed, and the consequences speak louder and truer than Hayes' secretary of the navy. We are, however, throwing away too much space on Dick Thompson's speech, for even as we write it is forgotten.. It was a plea throughout for a fraudulent administration and for a party black with the infamy of its crimes a party that, like some of the government th:ps, will have to be broken up for its rottenness THE JUIRNAL AND THE RADICAL DEFAULTERS. The Sentinel felicitates itself somewhat for having compelled the Journal to make some sort of a statement upon the subject of the defalcations of Wright, Erldemeyer and Riley, albeit, the article is worse for the Journal than its silence, for it is an attempt to extenuate radical crookedness in the fiscal affairs of the county, to whitewash radical officials shown to be defaulters, to impress upon the people that to taxe money from the county treasurer and hold on to it for years is something always likely to occur in keeping the county's cash account, and no evidence that these radical defaulters "intended any wrong." We felt assured from the first that the Sentinel would compel the Journal to speak. We were satisfied that the people's contempt for its cowardly silence and the S-.ntinera lakh combined would extort from it a squeal on one side or the other;, and sure enough we have it. The Journal's treatment of the subject is conclusive proof that an average radical organ will at all times defend radical officials charged with defalcations, frauds, embezzlements, or any other crime known to the law. We felt satisfied the Journal would pursue this course, for when a radical official is up for trial, the Journal's boasted honesty oozes out at its finger ends, and makes it a target for the flings and jeers of all honorable citizens. The article .shows the true inwardness of the Journal. We are by no means surprised that the Journal realizes aa fully as its stupidity permits the degrading position it occupies in the estimation of the honest taxpayers of Marion county, and its puerile effort to detract from the confidence the people have in the Sentinel for its lxld de ' nunciatton of official crookedness, will prove a signal failure, though, as In the cas of Mr. George F. Meyer, it deliberately lies like a dog. The Sentinel has cot charged George F. Meyer with embezzlement "in every Issue for a 'week," nor in any issue with the crime of embezzlement. The Journal thought that such a charze against the Sentinel would make a little political capital, and the idea was no sooner conceived thaa it was set afloat in the embrace of a lie. The Sentinel has simply stated that the four radical ex-treasurers of Marion county were defaulters, and has at no time charged embezzlement. It has dismissed from the list Mr. George P. Meyer, and referred gent-rally to the remaining three, who owe the county, as the report of the experts shows nearly $13,000, every dollar of which was illegally taken, and is illegally withheld, from the treasury. It will likely be shown in due time that there are circumstances well calculated to create the belief that the money

was knowingly taxen by some of the defaulting ex-lrtasorers, and that the books bear evidence of efforts to cover up the crookedness. It is quite likely that the . Journal was aware , of Mich rumors, and that its attempts to extenuate the defalcations by saying that the defaulters are not guilty of "intentional wrong," is designed to help the ex-treasurers down as easily as possible. The effort of the Journal to whitewash the radical defaulters is the weakest and at the same time the most impudent specimen of venal subsidized journalism we remember to have seen for many a day. A few extracts will suffice to convince all fair minded citizens. It Bays: These discrepancies, as shown by the report of the experts, may be entirely correct, and yet not a single one of.tLe officers be guilty of embezzlement, or of even any Intentional wrong. That is lo say, money to the extent of about $13,000 can be taken and retained for years, and the parties benefited by the transaction be as innocent as sucking babes. Good radical doctrine, but since it cost Marion county about $4,000 to find out how to make discrepancies bo entirely honest, it is rather too expensive. The way it came about, according to the Journal, was as follows: We understand, however, that the greater part of the discrepancies in all the accounts resulted from the manner of pay i we taxes and keeping the accounts of the payments. We are of the opinion that the discrepancies resulted from putting the people's money in the treasurers' pockets instead of the county treasury. Deficits generally occur that way, and jincs it seems to have been the way that thrt e radical treasurers saved about $13,000 the people are displeased with it, and are not likely to pursue that method of paying tares in future. The Journal further explains: When a tax-payer pays his taxes hii name is checked by a mara indicating payment, and he is given n receipt. Daring the hurry of taxpaying time everybody in the office Is kept busy from morning till night, often crowds of tax payers waiting their turns. Now if, in the hurry and crush of business, some clerk omits to cross off the tax-payer's name, there is no way of discovering tho mistake except by verifying It by the receipt or the stub. " Here we have it that each of the three radical defaulting treasurers got into such a thundering hurry, wben receiving taxes, that clerks and receipts, treasurers, tax-payers and stubs; got sd mixed up that too much of the people's money found its way into the treasurers' pockets, and order has never been sufficiently restored in the office for the money to find its way hick into the treasury. The "stub" seems to form a basis for the stubborn facts brought to the surface by the experts. The Journal still further white-. washes the defaulters by saying: lhe law requires the treasurer to settle with

J he auditor from his duplicate, and not from the stubs or receipts. So if any one pays his taxes, but his name is not checked as having paid, the treasurer will be "long." Then when tills is discovered the treasurer corrects the error, and he Is "short" that much at the next settlement.. By this it would seem that the law is responsible for the deficits, and all because the defaulting treasurers tied to the 'duplicate' instead of the "stubs and receipts," As a result the game of "short" and "long" was played pretty extensively, the county com ing out snort every time, until it cost about $13,000. The Journal lays on more white wash by saying: Now, when we consider that each treasurer handled hundreds of thousands of dollars, much of vrhlcii was paid in in a few days, when everybody Is hurried and driven. It Is apparent that mistakes m-111 occur. Again, sometimes mistakes am made by the auditor in carrying out his multiplications m the du plicate furnished the treasurer. When this Is discovered the treasurer corrects It. This leads to mistakes when the settlement comes to be made. Sure enough; to handle hundreds of thou sands of dollars seems to be too big a thing for radical treasurers. They make mistakes. and continue to make mistakes; make them on both sides, but more on one side than on the other. In no instance did the county come out ahead of the. rads, which 8ho ws there was m'ethod in making the mistakes. Seriously, this county trees. ury business is most thameful. It stinks In the nostrils of every tax-payer, and the Jour nal's attempt to whitewash the rascality makes it still more offensive. The county commissioners should make short work of the matter. If the ralical defaulters can be made to pay back their illgotten money it should be done at once. If this can not be done, and there is no punishment known to the law for such crookedness. the people ought to know it. An election is close at hand. Radicals are asking to have the custody of the people's money. Good taste as well as common honesty suggests that before any mdre rads finger the funds the radical defaulters t hould be made to disgorge. The Sentinel will continue to make It unpleasant to the defaulters nntil they pay over the money. As - for the Journal, having compelled it to squeal in the interest of rascality, we dimiss it for the present. NAIHE A WD BLAINE. The news from Maine is good news, grand news, cheering news. It could scarcely be better news. It evidences the fact that in Maine, the home of Blaine, Hamlin and Hale, the stuffing has been pretty effectually knocked out of the radical party, that it has received its death stab, and now lies sprawling in its slime. The grand revolution has commenced in the right place. A more desirable battlefield could, not have been selected. Blaine and Hale, assisted by Garfield and other notorious radical conspirators, commanded in person. They employed all the stratagems tbat had previously won success. The bloody shirt was never waved more vigorously. Falsehood was utilized to the fullest extent Money from the radical corruption fund was need with the profligacy of freebooters, but the people were not to be cheated again. They tightened their grasp njion the serpent and destroyed its power. They achieved a victory. Shouts follow the lightning, and the people of Indiana acd other states will be encouraged to do like Maine and overwhelm radicalism with defeat And now Wabash county lays claim to the smallest living baby in the world.
