' RADICAL ASSURANCE. It is really amusing to notice with what ‘pretended confidence radieal papers pre--dict the defeat of the ticket nominated on -the Bth of January, and the consequent election zf the Republican ticket next Octuber. ‘They treat the subject with an air of cértainty that would lead one unacquainted with the pohitics of "ndiana to suppose that the radical majority reached many thousands—forgetting, it would scem, that their majority at the October olection in 1868 was barely enough, after. all the “dectoring” of the returns, to save them from ign&miniot_ls defeat. Whilst we do not pretend to say that the success of the democratic party is already assured, we are unable to discover anything bin’the signs ofithe times that +would serve as a justification of the assumption that a re publican victory in this State is as certain a 8 these editors would have us believe.—We are quite sure that the republican party has done nothing to entitlé it to renewed confidence, nor to inspire its adhe rents ‘with a degree of enthusiasm calcuJated to suppress the ardor ot their opponents, - ' : : . The facts are, these radical editors base their-hopes entirely on the consummation of that villainous plot agunins popular _ rights, the fifteenth amendment, With the aid of 10,000 or 12,000 negro votes they expect to be able to dverride the will and wish of the legal voters of Indjaana, but let them take heed that an in dignant and.ontraged white constituency way put the seal of condemnation on the “imfamous proceeding that will forever destroy the hopes of a treacherous and revolutionary party. = ‘ |

Speech of Gen. Slack. Gen. James R. Slack, of Huntington, who was unanimously elected permageizt chairman of: the Demoeratic State Caovention on the Bth of January—a poéfifiin for which he displayed the most emipent qualification-delivered the following neat and eloquent little speech in entering upon the disohiarge ot his duties :

w. Qentlemen of the Conmvention :— Accept my sincerest thanks for the distinction you have conferred in calling upon me ta preside over.your deliberations, and permit me to indu!ge the hope that all your proceedings will be characterized with the utmost harmony; that your conclusions may resultgin blessings-to the country, and that you: may nominate a ticket which the combined hosts of Radicalism can not defeat. . [Cheers.] - It is only repeating the truth of history to say that when the Democratic party rule, the people of our whole country reJoice, and that when Radicalism rejoices the people of our whole ¢ountry mourn. To restore the Government to its original purity and perfection is now the mission of tlie Democratic party. ([iuheers.] , Ta sccomplish this purpose Radicalism must ho excluded from tle councils of the nation. Then, and not till then, will peace, and quiet, ‘and prosperity, be restored to the people.. Again, gentlemen, I return to. you my sincerest thanks for the dis tinguished honor you have so generously conferred on me.. The Convention is now organizeéd and réady for business,

. School Statisties. The State Superintendent of Public In struction has completed his bienniad report, and from fit’the following interest. ing items are taken: Total number of * children between 6 and 21 yehrs of age, 605,661 ; colored children, 4,994, The . enumeration of colored children bas been 80 irregularly taken that it is impossible to present even a fair estimate, a small majority of the examiners only having reported them separately. The total amount of the.school fund of the State i 8 $8,350,368.69.

; Whisky. The Indianapolis: correspondent. of the South Bend Union has the following in his report of the proceedings of the Bth of January convention » : “‘The whisky plank usually charged to lie & ;;)rmninenc item 1n all Democratic assemblies, was, in this convention monopolized: by the republicans, as the only bottle of whisky which gour correspondent saw was under the table of the republican press, in charge of Col.. Holloway, of the Indianapolis Journal.” iy ot 8 e B N CoL. Jonx 8. WiLrLiaums, of Lafayette, seems to be the choicerof the Democracy of this district as their next candidate for ‘ Congress. The Colonel is a staunch dem oerat, an effective canvasser, and deservedly. popular. We apprehend he would make a 8 strong & race asany gentleman that could be selected, and we hope he may be nominated,— Lebanon Pioneer. We have no desire to meddle with: the affairs of other districts, but we cannot refrain from saying that in our opinion Col, Williams is just the man to overcome the radical majority in the Seventh.

| ‘May the people undo what the people { have done ? . Or, to put the more ac{'@umtely, may the people “ae fi as been improperly done in theif name: i The Republican party, almost gth .one. | voice, say, no; their opponents say yed | The, event (says the St. Louis Republican) that broaches this important question “in-the repeal by the Staté of New York of its ‘ratification of the Fifteentl amend. the last Legislature sofithe State ; the repeal has been enacted by the present one. | ‘ The latter act goes before the world with ‘ a clearer stamp of the popular authority, : and as a more aecurate expression of theiJ | popular will, in that it js the work of rep- | | Tesentatives freshly chosen by the people, { i and chesen, t>oo, partly on' this very issue, ‘| i The ratification by the last Legislature . wae in disregard of the will of the people ; [ ,'the undoing it is an obedience of the pop- f ’ ular will. If this is not true, then Both | acts, the ratification and the vepeal, are ! j faithfal’ expressions of the people’s will, f the one of their will in 1868, the other of i their will in 1870. But, even in this | view of the case, the repeal is the expres- ‘ sion of sher latest and freshest and best ‘ matured will, and should ' therefore overtide the other..

~ This is the simple logic of all the accepted maxims of popular government.— But the_republican party boldly disputes It, and proposes to deliberately disregard it. The philosophy of that party's whole policy is that the people of a State have not the right to govern, except with the assent of the peoplé of the other States.— The majority in a State ma'y{ do what Congress wishes them to do, but it cannot do what Congress wishes theni not to do. Nay, a minority in a State may falsify the wishes of the people of that State, in obedience to the caprice of Congress, and Congress will accept and establish the falsehood as part of the Constitution » but, if the majority fairly and so’emnly undo the wrong, Congress will take no notice of it. This is Republican -dogic. Tts chief characteristicls its unbounded ef. frontery. 1 /

Some party will, perhaps, have to decide the question. There will, in a few days, be on file in the office of the Federal Secretary of State at Washington New York’s repeal of that ratification. Will the Secretary of State decide between the two? Or will he submit the matter to the President? Will the President decideit, or will hesubmit it to his Attorney General? Most probably he will submit it to that body which, of all others, has the least business with it—Congress. The question is a legal and a litigant one, and Congress is an interested party on one side. It would therefore decide in its own favor. Iu other words, it would ratify the améndment itself, and call the act the ratification of the people of New York. G

This would be an application of the ;I{ec"nstr\\ct‘l:()l! theory to a Northern State—the most powerful of the Northern States. 1t would be a Congressional invasion of New York, precisely similar in nature to the recent invasion of Georgia. Tt would, in short, be the reduction of the Empire State of the Union to the cendition of” vassalage in which the “ieconstructed” States are held. Several of these “reconstructed” States were compel led by Congress to ratify the Fifteenth amendment, “against the will and wish of their peoples. Congress instigated a minority of their peoples to enact a false ratification, and then accepted the: falsehood as the true voice of their peoples.— Would not the acceptance by the President, or by Congress, of the so-called rat ification of New York, and the disre. gard of the latter repeal of that ratification, be treating New York as Georgia and Texas have been treated ? Would it not in truth, be an instant reduction of a great Northern State to the humiliation of the “reconstructed” Sates? Nay—since what may be done in azd to New York, may be done in and to any State and all the States—would it not be placing the yoke of reconstruction on the necks of all the States, and lashing them together in the bond of a common degradation ? The Southern peoplé, while being dismembered by the machinery of reconstructidn, have warned us that the turn of the loyal States come next. And it has, ~indeed. ' The machine is about to be carried into the heart ot the North, and the proudest State of the” Union selected as the first yictim. The predominant sentiment of the Republican party, which is the unerring indication of what we are to look for from Washington, demands the acceptance and ) recognition of New York’s : ratification of the amendment, and the dis- - regard of its repeal of that ratification ; and as the party has made the amendment a mortal issue, and resolved to carry it in defiance ulfl,tbe will of the people, we msy be certain that the present Congress will not adjourn until it has deelared, or forced the President to declare, the amendment adopted. ' In doing this it ‘will have to extort the ratification of New York, as it has exotrted the ratification of Virginia, ‘and thus, by one daring stroke, made thirty-seven State autonomies the dependent creatures of a power which was once content' to be ‘their simple agent. The Republican leaders hope. this will be the | end’ of their party usurpations ; but as each of their violations of the Constitution has been the provoking necessity for | others, so this daring act will, instead of being the end of a.career of usurpations, | be, in fact, the beginning of a new ove.

| CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. |ge o e | Aftera holiday ad;ournn.;ent of I | cessary length, 'bqt'h l;omeuf Jongress ed on Monday, thie 10th inst, it jsomething for the goad of the w—'if indecd, the g6od of the ‘coustry would not have been best promoted by a perpetual adjournment. The feature of the “opening day in both Houses was the at‘tempt of the Grant Radicals to restore ~Virginia to representation in Congress:During the discussion in* the Senate of a bill for that purpose, Senator Drake, of Missouri, .proposed the rather novel and revolutionary proviso that 'if Virginia should ever dare to rescind her ratification of the 15th' smendment she should be ‘ remanded to the territorial condition. A bill abolishing the franking privilege, and’ ‘ resolutions looking to the annexation of | Britisk Columbia, and the breaking up of | the taxes on passengers levied by Mary. | dand and New Jersey were introduced in f the Senate. i

i In the House, a bill was introduced to -amend the national banking law so as to authorize the establishment of free banks. A bill was also introduced by Mr. Paine to apportion representatives among the Several States after March 3, 1870, which provides that the House of Representatives shall have three hundred members, and that no reduction in the present repre_sentation of any State shall take place in the 42nd Coogress. = Mr. Mungen, of ‘Ohio, attempted to get in a resolution of inquiry into the extravagant purchase of carriages, liorses, &c., by the heads of the departments, on government account, but was choked’ down by the radicals, . TuksDAY, JAN. 11.—In the Senate; the debate,; on the question. of the admission of Virginia, was continued, and an effort -of the ultras to procure the postponement of the bill was defeated, 25 to 26—a number of Radicals voting with the Democrats in thé negative. A discussion on Drake’s infamous amendment followed ; Mr. Williams, of Oregon,— one of the ablest of the Radical Senators—giving it a complete riddling, but the arrival of a message from the President prevented action. Shcgipaale PR

‘ln the House of Representatives several bills and resolutions of no special interest were presented. e WEDNESDAY, JAN. 12.—1 n the Senate, Mr. Conkling presented the resolutions. of the Legislature of New York, rescinding the ratification of the fifteenth amendment, and accompanied them with a sneering commentary. The debate on the Virginia bill was resumed, all the great guns on the Radical side participating pro and con. No vote was reached. : In tbe House, Mr. Farnsworth's Virginia bill came up for consideration.— Speeches were made by Farnsworth and Paine on the Radical side, and by General Morgan for the Dewoerats. Waithout action, the House adjourned. The Virginia muddle will probably bother €Congress for scveral days to eome. Butler has not yet opened his batteriés upon the Grant faction of his party. ] o

THURspAY, JAN. 13.—1 n both Houses of Congresss the Virginia exclusion question was debated without reaching a final vote. The Senate discussion was made unusually interesting by a fieree set-to between Trumbull and Sumner, in which the latter charged the Western Senator with lukewarmness in, and even apostacy tothe “great eause” of radicalism. Mr. Trumbull retorted by ridiculing Sumner’s pretensions to the leadership of the party. The Senate was delighted to witness the writhings of their big_bully under the scalping . knife of the IMinois brave. Drake’s rascally amendment to return Virginia to military government, if at any time after -admission it should repudiate radicalism, was voted down, 11 to 45. Mr. Edmunds introdueed a test-oath amendment, ‘which was under consideration when the Sepate went into executive session. = i

In the House the debate on the Virginia bill was distingunished by a- logical - speech from Fernando Wood and an amysing passage between Logan and Lawrence of Ohio. Mr. Mungen made a personal explanation relative to his repudiation speech, for which he claimed the en tire responsibility. : ey Fripay, Jan. 14.—The fight on Vir- ' ginia continued in both branches of Con--gress and - ended in the House in a Conservative victory. . The vote was on Bingbam’s substitute, which admitted Virginia without any' conditions whatever, and was very close—99 to 95. There was some skirmishing on the part of the ultras to prevent the bill as amended from passing, but it finally went through, 143 to 49; & large number of those who voted against | Bipgham previously, going over to the ‘Conservatives on the final struggle. —.. Cheers broke from the gallery when the battle was won. The Senate discussion continued until nearly midnight, the sensation of the evening being a calm, pol. ‘ished, and dignified conservitive speech from Carl Schurz. The following is the bill as it passed the Honse: - : A joint resolution declaring Virginia en- . titled to representation in Congress. ; " Whsreas, The people of Virginiis have adopted a constitution, republican in form, - 'and have, in all respects, conformed to the, ‘rekiuireine’:‘;ts; of the act of Congress, entitled an act aunthorizing the submission ~of the Constitutions of Virginia, Missis-’ sippi, and Texdsto a vote' of the people;’ authorizing the' election of ‘State officers’ gz:;ded by said Constitution; and mem-: ixs of Congress, approved April 10, 1869; - therefore be it - LS o

| TERRIBLE TRAGEDY AT ELKHART ’& i#he Fatally Shot by the Hushand of tie ] 5 w:’l &1 ;w '.....W'z»fl e Vx— )‘--?;’f | ELkuARg, Jan. 17.—One of the most errible Wdiagvetrnww&«imi!mte,. ) bn_":j ‘ed m!’e at 9 o'cl Ock thifl’m‘. X that a wan named Edward § Russell “deliberately shot down, wi%):t ' previous warning, a fellow human bei lnamed W. A. Williams. The murderefi ' man lived only 20 minutes. The circumstances attending this terrible crime are as follows : e - : [ Mr. Russell; 2 Blacksmith in the em- | I ploy of the Michigan Southern Railroad ' shops at this place, hasa young and inter_esting wife, whom it was the ill fortune of Williams to become infatuated with. - It isiclaimed that Williams was in ; the. habit of visiting the house of Mr. ' Russell at frequent intervals, and as Mrs. Russell was his niece, this action on his part excited but little comment. Indeed, it is charged that the deceased has often gone to the house with his two daughters, —they to visit their cousins, he to further his hellish designs.. After a while, the suspicions of Mr, Russell were aroused, and he advised with his wife on the matter. She informed her husband that her uncle bad done nothing wrong, but that if be did she would tell her husband. — One day last week Williams, who was foreman of the blacksmith shop in which Russell works, ordered the latter to Laporte on some business, and ‘during Russell’'s absence went to his house and succeeded in ravishing her person. It ix asserted that he then threatened to kill her should she ever divulge the circumstances toa living soul. On the return’of Mr. Russell from Laporte he noticed that his wife was suffering from some secret trouble, and his suspicions beiig aroused by having been sent out of town, he questioned his wife as to the cause of her tiouble. After a short interval she disclosed the perfidy of her uncle, as already related. Mr. Russell was ovewhelmed with sorrow, and he thirsted for revenge. But first of all he went to the shop and putting the case as a supposed one to his fel-low-workmen, asked them what thay wouid do under such circamstances. They all replied that they would shoot & man who ‘would steal into their family and do

them that great wrong. Russell then tried to borrow a revolver, but as none of the men had one he finally called at Pope’s hardware store and obtained the weapon. This was on Saturday last. On Sunday be spent the most of his time with his wife, brooding over the matter, she endeavoring to comfort him, not thinking that he was harboring murderous thoughts. : - Early this morning, Russell went to the shop, and, passing through the forge department, entered the little office in one corner of the building. There were two persons in the room, and he turned about, and went back to his forge. 'ln a short time he again went to the office, but still the stranger was there, and Russell again returned to his work. After waiting patiently he saw the man depart. He then Jeft his work, and for the third time approached the unsuspecting foreman. He saw Williams seated at a desk, busily engaged in writing. He deliberately raised the weapon and fired. P L The :ball entered the right side of the. head, just above the ear; and the man fell torward, dead. e : - Whben Russell saw his victim fall, he went out to his forge and asked his helper if be knew of any constable. The man replied that he did. “Then come with me- to see him,” said Russell, and when the man, wonderingly, asked what was wanted with a constable, Russell told him that he would soon be told. They then went to Marshal Bostwick, and Rusell gave himself up. Not. knowing whether to believe the story or not, Mr. Bostwick banded Russell over to the safe keeping of a deputy, and, hurrying to the shops, found the dead body of Williams. * . The murdered man, Williams, was an Englishman, aged about 50 years. He: had been in the employ of the Michigan Railroad company for 16 years. Heisa widower, but leaves two children, both daughters, aged respectively- 14 and 16 years. - pi N Russell is about 28 years of age. The present is his second wife, he having been divorced from his first wife. By birth: he is 3 Canadian, and has been in the em-ploy-of the. railroad company about two years. It is claimed that Mrs. Russell is slightly insane, or that she is non compus mentis, but of course, it is only a rumor and cannot -be relied upou. ‘ The excitemen is intense, the general opinion being, however, that Russell was perfectly justifiable in the course he pursued. !

JOHN B. STOLL. This gentleman is the editor, and perhaps the principal proprietor, of both the Ligonier Banner and the LaPorte Argus, two of the most caustic and influential democratic newspapers in northern Indiana. Mr. Stoll was a candidate for auditor of state hefore the late Democratic State convention.. He was defeated for. nominatien by Mr. Shoemaker, of Pen‘{ county, by a very few votes, simply because he was a northern Indianian, and Col. Eddy, also from the northern .part of the state, had just been nominated for secretary. If Col. Eddy had not been successful, it is highly - probable that Mr. Stell would have been the democratic candidate for aaditel. . e A
