The time for wrangling and contention amonr Democrats, about th5 settlement of questions in which they aro very little interested, has now passed. This i3 tho time f r vigorous and united action, if we expect to achieve a victory that will reflect honor on the Democracy of the State. For the past few months, and even year3, the attention of all political parties lias been directed to questions of foreign interest, to the utter neglect and total disregard of matters of viud importance to the c'nhivs of our State. The Kansas question is now virtually settled, at least so far 3 the action of the people of tho States can eflest it; and it i3 the duty of every Democrat to turn his attention, wholly and entirely, to the State canrass, and labor earnestly for tha succcs3 of lha ticket; for on its success depends the prosperity, and wo might say, the perpetuity of our States government. It will long be remembered by the people of Indiana, that the Republican Senators, at the last session of our State Legislature, refused to allow the appropriation bills to pass, and as a natural consequence, the operations of all our benevolent institutions were suspended; and the inmates, whose helpless condition rendered them worthy objects of the charity of our State, were sent home, if they were so fortunate as to have one, or if not. were incarcerated in jail3 and poor-houses. We know that a portion cf tha Republican parly deny .that the responsibility rests on them, but the recorded vote, whenever tho question was brought before them, shows that ihey refused, by a strict party vote, to allow the appropriation bilU to pass. The only excuse that they ever attempted to give for such unheard cf neglect of duty, was marine democrats refused to oust a member, for the simple reason that his light to a seat was contested. It was clearly proven, before a committee of investigation, that the member (Mr. Miller,) had a xnnjoiity of all the legal rotes cast, and

Change of Propra eiusic. We have closely scrutinized our Repub

lican exchanges for some time past, and cannot find ono word about tho "sovereign power of Congress over the territories." It has been but a short time since that was their cardinal, and we might say only, principle, if principle it might bo called. If you ask a Republican why it is they do not urge on the people .ho acceptance of this principle at the present time, ho will declare that it is a part of their creed, and will refer you to speeches and resolutions of 1831; but cannot show you one word in favor of it, in any of tho lato speeches or editorials of their leaders. The prediction of the Democrats, that this untenable plank ia their platform would bo dropped bofore another Presidential election, ha3 already been veriGeJ. It would be difficult to form a correct idea of what their next dodge will b3, or what will be their rallying cry at tha next general election. It would certainly be very inconsistent (although consistency is not a part of their creed,) for them to marshal their forces under tho banner of "Freedom'. "from the fact that they voted, almost unanimously in Congress, against tho admission of the free States of Minnesota and Oregon. In both of these territories, the election of Delegates to form their Slate constitutions, Avas admitted to be in accordance with tho provisions of the acts authorizing the election their constitutions wero republican in form, and were submit ted to, and ratified by, tho people; what could havd induced these "lovers of freedom" to oppose their admission? If they wish freedom lo trin.mph in the enactment of laws, and the election of law-makers, would it not ba reasonable to suppose that they would desire the admission of free States, in order to retain the balance of power on the side of freedom? There is one of two reasons which was the cause of their opposition to the admission of these territories, either of which are certainly very discreditable to any party professing to be guided by principle. Tho Cr3t is, that this opposition was based upon the ground that these territories were Democratic, and had elected Democratic representatives to Congress; the second is, that they aro real enemies to the cause they profess to cherish, and their cry of "frcedon" has only been kept up to secure tho success of the party. This hypocritical cry, constantly aided by exaggerated and false accounts from Kansas, served their purpose well for a time; but those who wero induced to support thern in their crusade against the Democratic party, aro now beginning to realize tho utter hopelessness of their present precarious situation. Genuine principles they never had; and their bo?us crv of freedom has ceased to arouse the energies of their followers. What their next hobby will be, is not yet Lnorni to the outsiders; but there is one prediction that can be safely made, and that is, that they will change their programme as often as anv new doma will offer'a hope of success. We have no fears of their future success, even should thy succeed in bring ing all the fictions into their ranks. j5TThers has been some raisundorstanding, and consideiabh confusion, in regard t0lhö Congressional Convention for this District. But as near a3 WC can learn, frora all E0Urcs ,vc brieve it is the oresent intention to hold it at this place, on the first of jvlVf a3 was fir3t asreed upon.shall bo lieict here on th0 first 0f July.

Last Saturday aftcrnoon we were visited by the most terrific hail storm that has ever been witnes?eu as this place.. The cloud mado it appearance in the north-east, and parsued a southwest direction, cmbracinj a scope of about or three or four miles in width. In this place. about tllQ material damage done was in tho breaking of windows, and the ruination 6f several gardens.

The St. Joseph <Journal> of monday [sic] last, gives an account of a most extraordinary trip across the Plains, by Mr. Bromley, the conductor of the mail line. We give an account of it in the word of the Journal: The Salt Lake mail arrived in this city yesterday about noon. We are indebted to the conductor, Mr. James E. Boomley [sic], for the following particulars: The mail left camp scott [sic] on the 23th of May.--Gov. Cumming had been escorted into Salt Lake City by the Mormons, kindly treated, and then escorted back to Gen. Johnston's command. He was at Camp Scott the time the mail left. The Mormons were moving their women and children out of the city to Pravo [sic], about forty-five miles south in the valley. The Mormons said they would surrender to the civil officers, but the troops should not enter. Seventy families of Mormons had arrived at Camp Scott, asking protection. General Johnston received them kindly, and promised them an escort into the States. Gen. Johnston's command had only two days rations in camp when the mail left. The men had been living on eight ounces of flour and one half pound of beef per day for two weeks past. They had suffered greatly through the winter, both for food and raiment. Gen. Johnston intended entering Salt Lake City as soon as Col. IIoffman arrived, leaving enough men to garrison Fort Bridger. Coming in, the party met Captain Haws, of the 2d dragoons, with 250 beef cattle, at Ham's Fork, only 15 miles this side of Camp Scott; met Lieut. Smith 2d dragoon3,on Green River, 50 miles this side, traveling at the rate of forty-eigh [sic] miles per day; and seventy-five miles further on, at the east crossing of Big Sandy, met Col. IIoffman's command with full supplies; met Col. Andrews of the 6th infantry, at the crossing of the South Platt. Col. May at Big Blue, and the last troops, 2d dragoons, at Nemaha. Mr. Bromley the conductor, reports the road in an awful condition. The only Indians heard of on thc rout was a war party of forty-five Aarrphoes [sic], on the Little Blue. Mr. Bromley reports that he met Col Kane and party coming on as he passed cut with the mail, 260 miles this side of Camp Scott.--Mr. Bromley coming in, some days traveled as far as 85 miles, and averaged over 64 the whole trip. Having come through from Fort Bridge [sic] to this city in 16 days, which is the quickest trip on record, he is justly entitled to the reputation of being the Aubrey of the present day. ---<>--- Later From Europe. ARRIVAL OF THE BTEAMSHP PERSIA. S.John3, N. F., June 21.

The managers of the bank, therefore , owe it to the public to) get iura new set of plates.

Gy3tein. The secret of the success of a great mmy individuals lies in the manner of doing their business, in systematizing their daily labors and letting their heads save their heels. Some men can accomplish in a day almost an incredible amount of labor, while others appear to be weighed down by doing apparently nothing. A man who allows triflcä to frustrate him, 13 no man for business, for he soon wears out his system; and renders himself disagreeable to those around him. It is a good rule to have your daily work allotted out, and with the aid of system yoa will bo able to accomplish wonders.
