The Maine election is perfectly satisfactory to the Liberals. — Laporte Argu*. Well, so it is to the Republicans. The official returns show that Gov. Perham was elected by over 1 Tj.OOO majority. If this is “perfectly satisfactory tp the Liberals” what the mischief is the use of howling about it? Maine will give Grant 25,000 majority, is obtain to; North Carolina will give him 10,000 or 12,000 majority. Let thp States of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and lowa do as well, estimating by per cent., and there is no doubt at all that Grant vill he re-elected. The Ken} Thomas A. Hendricks, Democrat and Liberal Republican candidate for Governor, spoke to over two thousand voters at Goodlaiid in this eouniy on Thursday tbe 12th iust. —Kentls::! Vexiocrat. That Is probably about as near the truth as the Tidal-Wavers can come. If there were 2,000 men, women and children at Goodland on the 12th instant, then there were 3,000 in attendance to hear Mr. Williams at this place last Friday, and B,OCO to hear Senator Morton at Goodland last Saturday. Without counting we should estimate that Mr. Hendricks’ meetiug • was attended by about 800 persons, Mr. Williams’ by 1,200 and Mr, Morton’s by 3,000 to 3,500.

The Democrats and Liberals of New York have nominated Francis Kiernan (Dem.) for Governor and Chauucy M. Depew (.Lib. Rep.) for Lieuten* ant Governor. This ticket will be elected and sweep corruption in that State. — Ktex Ledger Well the Democracy have control of the State of New York now, and Hoffman is the Governor. The Ledger although a Democratic paper, says the government of that State is corrupt. Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks said in his speech at Goodland on the 12th instant that it was necessary to change the party in power in order to purify corruption—that no party ever reformed or purified itself. There is a discrepancy somewhere. Either Mr. Hendricks and the Demoeratie editor of the Ledger do not hold the same opinion as to the means of party purification, or elsg the latter is mistaken about the ticket which is to “sweep corruption from that State.” We are inclined to the latter opinion and think the Ledger meant that Gen. Dix would engage in the sweeping business. The Crown Point Herald copies an article the Cincinnati Commercial upon the political outlook in Indiana, from the pen of Mr. FD. Carley, ot South Bend, in which that gentleman places the number ot Liberal Republicans in Jasper county at 50 who will vdte for Horace Greeley for President. Althongh not rich in this wo.rld’s goods we will bet SSO there are not 50 men in Jasper county that voted' the Republican State ticket in 1870 who will vote for Horace Greeley this fall. Or, we will bet SSO there are not 30 men of this class in this eonnty. Or, we will obligate ourselves to present Mr. Carley $5 apiece tor each and every man of the Mass n<M»edabiSPve that he can tfod m jasper county over the nnm-

obligation to present ns with $5 apiece for each one the number falls short of 20. This is‘ business ami DO-Mush Mr Parley fiao not been writing buncombe let him prove his faith by liis works.

Col. Geo. W. Carter’s Speech.

One Col. Geo. W. Carter, of Louisiana, was posted to speak in Rensselaer on Tuesday uflcrnoon of this week. lie was advertised ajs a Liberal Republican, and the Secretary of the Indiana Confederate central committee wrote that he was one of “our most electrical speakers,” and urged the rallying of a large crowd to hear him. Hut lie didn’t come, and not a very large crowd assembled. The day was not pleasant—rain was threatened —and the Democracy' of Jasper comity do ridt seem to “cat crow” with a very good relish unless the sun shines "brightly an d all the surroundings of nature are in smiling and persuasive mood. However, some may have bee n dis appointed, .and as wejuui-will-rng"”tb™do' what

we can to alleviate the poignancy of their distress, we publish for their benefit a speech delivered by “Col. Geo. W. Carter,of Louisiana” in the Philadelphia convention last June, he representing his State as a delegate at large. On page 29 of the published proceedings of that convention it is reported that "Colonel George W. t’arter then proceeded upon the platform ami spoke, as follows: , “Mr. President and Gmthmen of the Convention: I appreciate your desire to hear something of the Republican candidates from a Confederate, who believed he was right, although a speech from me at this time may not be very appropriate. lam an ex-Confederate soldier who needed reconstruction, and if I am any judge in the matter, 1 believe that 1 have been reconstructed. I came out of tbe war with onlytwo planks in my platform. One was from the Democratic platform, which was, if I could not get what 1 wanted to take what I could get. The other was a philosophical plank, tcThave iio prejudices, and that a whipped man was not entitled to his prejudices, I think I am a type of the men who fought honestly and got whipped squarely on that question. We have come through the war, and have learned lessons which we think will be valuable., I think our people down there are learning. One of the lessons we have learned is this, that the will of the American people is to be respected, "The Hollander was our type of the revolutionist. We have now taken the French type, that when we get whipped, if the country won’t follow us we will follow it. We came out of the war with that purpose, and- you will find it in the South to-day In the Presidential election approaching, Grant and Greeley, the Southern people who were honest in their convictions, and have abandoned their abstractions as far as they entered Into the fight, prefer an honest, practical man, who makes them behave themselves. They prefer a man who does not cry over them as they weep over their distresses, but tells them they must work if they 7 would be happy; that the true remedy for the evils under which they labor is to go to work and adjust themselves to the condition of the country as they find it iuTheir new relations. I believe to-day if the Democrats endorse Mr. Greeley, Ueueral Grant will get more straight Democratic votes than Greeley will in Louisiana.”

Mr. Greeley at Pittsburgh.

lion. Horace Greeley is foliowj ing the illustrious examples of Winfield-Scott, Stephen A. Douglas and Horatio Seymojir, and is j now stumping the country for President. Last Thursday he spoke in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and took occasion in his speech to character ize the Soldiers’ and jailors’ convention, which kart, concluded its session in that city on the day previous, as “a rehearsal of the pomp and pageantry, the blazonry and the circumstance of war,” and said that the 50,000 or 60,000 survivors of the late war present in that convention were “collected at a vast expense, with the civil purpose of rekindling the bitterness and hatred—the animosity and antipathies—the fears ahd exultations pf civil war for advantage of a political party,” and further that “the journals of Pittsburgh as well as the orators on this occasion have been trying their best to make us—the people—hate each other for partisan advantage.” Proceeding with his tirade of Copperheadism he finally observed: “Fellow-citi-zens, 1 demand that there shall be open, free discussion before the Southern people. If they prove that the people of the South want disunion I will consent to it/” It may be pois- ; sible that the Democratic party “have accepted the situation in good faith;” it is possible that the disloyal element of the South may be “thoroughly reconstructed;” but their chosen and accepted candidate for President is certainly the wicked, dangerous and openly" avowed secessionist that be was in 1860, 186-1 and 18G2. Mr. Greeley tefn years ago advocated peaceable secession. For fear that the ephemeral existence of a daily paper might not prove sufficienf.to keep his docrines before the minds of his country men, holucorpor3te¥that semi me nt into'

the pages of his History of the American Conflict that succeeding generations bright, imbibe the pois-.ojuqus,-teaching that- would- provofatal rto all republican forms of government. To-day as the}candidate of a party, wprijveLple.s. and sentiments he is the chief; exponent, lie unhesitatingly and exultantly proclaims the &aijte pernicious ami violent theory. Il Mr. Greeley is not a mad man, or is not drunken with the flattfery of the sycophants who surround him,., and consequently wholly irresponsible for what lie utters, he moans to say to the rebel element of the South and their Copperhead allies of the North “Elect me to the Presidency, then go to work among the disaffected of any section and stir up their discontent, fan up the flame of their chagrin, revive and invigorate their love for the ‘Lost Cause,’ make— the question of secession an issue at the ballotbox, and if any portion shall de-ei-le tliat they wish to- withdraw -IVom-thfiJOnion, I will consent that they shall go unmolested' T~will do as I recommended President Buchanan to do in 1860. No troops shall be called out to oppose the dismembefrnent of this nation.” This is what Mr. Greeley means if he means anything at ail. No other construction can be placed upon his words. But the idea of a peaceable secession of any section of this country from the rest is as utterly absurd as that an arm, leg or any other member of a corporeal body could remove of its own volition without violence or injury. If secession is attempted, whether with the consent of the itboHtit, therex-gilE be war. '

North Western Indiana Methodist Episcopal Conference.

The North Western Indiana Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church held its last session at Thorntown, Indiana, September 4th to 10th, Bishop Janes presiding.— The territory of this Conference is the northwest quarter of Indiana, the line beginning at the State line west of Terre Haute and running east to Indianapolis, but not including any part of the city; thence north to South Bend by way of Logansport, but not including the latter place. —T-ho f’oflowing is-a brief smnniary of the statistics of the M.

Remington Items.

Comp lied from the Journal. Ml 1 . Lecklidcr" has bought the Nevada House. , ~~ Mr.HI. M. Babb has opened his new hotel to the public. Sam. Haver lias sold out and is going to quit the hotel business. .Corn is quoted at 28 to Ho cents, oats 18 to 20, wheat sl.lO to §1.20, flax seed $1.40. There has been considerable sickness in and around Remington, but health is now improving. A Grant and Wilson club was organized on the 14th with the following officers: President, Win. H. Shaw;, Vice President, J. T. Mclvim; Secretary, B. M. Butler; Treasurer, Charles 11. Price. A boy nine years of age, named Coomes, stole a horse and buggy belonging to Mr. Waymire from a hitching post in Remington, a week ago last Monday and started for Bloomington, Illinois. He was captured at Sheldcm and the property recovered. " _ “The agtreihas interfered with our localist this week, therefore those items are scarce.” Guess the “localist” has been troubled wjth an interferatice for some time; and in fact there seems to be a kind of chronic “ague” interfering with! the whole Joiirnal establishment. . A country girl writes to the Journal that she has not treated her brothers as she ought to have done., They have been made to sleep in the attic, and she has done things to disgust them, and acted as though she was ashamed of them, and made them eat at the second table, and pried into their small affairs, and ruujmaged their pockets, and as a climax-capper asked them where they had been Sunday night until dire remorse seized upon her conscience and compelled her to confess her sins publicly through the-columnV of the Jemrnal n<i n. w-irnjng EO Others.
