The Nomination.

We have only time before going to press, to announce the nomination of MOSES F. DUNN, as the Republican candidate for this Congressional district. We have no doubt but this nomination will give general satisfaction throughout the district. Mr. Dunn is the son of the distinguished George G. Dunn, and is said to be a "chip of the old block." He is a highly educated and thoroughly posted young man, and will make Mr. Voorhees know before he is much older, that lie now has a foeman worthy of his steel.

We congratulate the Republicans of the District on this nomination. It is one "fit and proper to be made." Now let us carry war into the enemy's camp. Let us make the campaign sharp, decisive, and overwhelming to the rebelloving Voorhees and his friends. Success is at our disposal. If we do not secure it, we are much at fault.

We hope the delegates will, when they go home, at once commence the organization of their respective counties. Everything is in being organized. We have an able and accomplished standard bearer—the son of a glorious sire. He cannot do all himself. Energetic and industrious as he is, he wants our help. Let us help him, and stand by him, and hold up his handu. If the Republicans will do this throughout the entire district, one thousand, majority will crown our efforts.

We are most happy in being able to annoufice tfiat the Convention was entirely harmonious, and adjourned with the best of feeling. Ali seemed anxious to huzza for Moses F. Dunn, the successor of D. W. Voorhees

Congress, or the Penitentiary A man is presently to offer rbimself at the bar of the Houso for readutission, concerning whom this same House recently adopted this resolution:

Jtcsolved, That B. F. Whittemore. late member from the 1st District ofSouth Carolina,did make appointments to the Military Academy at West Point and the Naval Academy at Annapolis in violation o/ law, and that such appointments were influenced by pecuniary considerations, and that his'conduct in the premises has been such as to show him unworthy of a seat In the House of Representatives, and is therefore condemned as conduct unworthy of a Representative oi the people.

Is this corrupt man, who was unworthy of a seat three months ago,' to be readmitted as worthy now? We hear that'he has been telegraphing to his friend and1 counsel, Gen. Butler, the news of his triumphant re-election that he confidently expects to be admitted without dispute that reputable members are deploring it in a helpless sort of way, ana going about dolefully asking eachother, "How can we prevent it?"—N, Y. Tribune.

It is not a matter of public consequence whether B. F. Whittemore is admitted to a seat in the present Congress or not. We have no doubt he is a very corrupt man, and ought to be serving a term in the Penitentiary, rather tlian seeking a seat in the National Legislature. But he will find men now holding seats in Congress as corrupt as he is, and while he may possibly be reformed by his recent expulsion, his admission to a seat, we have not the least idea, will make Congress any more corrupt—how could it

The worst feature in this whole matter is, that there could be found a constituency anywhere, in any State, who would elect to represent them in Congress, a fellow proven to be guilty of so mean a thing, as selling his right to appoint a cadet to West Point. Is not the penitentiary the proper place for his constituents? However, it might be sufficient punishment, in a moral point of view, to force them to occupy seats in Congress for the full term to which they have elected Whittemore.

As STATED in the telegraphic news in the GAZETTE, yesterday, somebody has contrived to caTry off $20,000 from Gen Spinner's office in the Treasury. Great care is generally takeii in showing visitors over the Department, but on this occasion the precautions were insufficient. The clerks in the' office had reason to be sorry for the mishap, for they were all detained until 11 o'clock at night, and thoroughly searched before they were al lowed to leave. There can be little doubt, however, that the plunder was by that time securely disposed of. Gen. Spinner is not often caught "nappiug," but for once a couple of impudent swindlers have contrived to get the better of him.

The Political Future.

It is becoming a matter of interest, not only to the Democratic party, but to its opponents, to ascertain the probable position which it will occupy in the canvass of 1872. Usually, the issues upon which Presidential contests are to be fought are substantially determined, or at least strongly foreshadowed, in the intervening State elections. At present both parties are in an exceptional position. Although each has a dim prospect as to its probable leadership, neither has a sliarplv defined policy. an party has the advantage in Demg iorcea to

Settle current ques

tions of legislation within its own lines, as the party in power. This will almost certaiuly result in the amicable formation of a policy by the time it is absolutely needed, and the process will almost as necessarily bring out a leader. Im all probability he will be some one identified with the policy, as its representative, if not as its originator and his strength will lie in the conceded desirability of completing the work inaugurated and partially executed by him. With the

Democratic party the case will be differjnt. They have no means! of developing policy or a standard-bearer, but must create both by the negative process of mere opposition, That position has but one advantage, which is that those who occupy it can profit by Republican errors but it remains with Congress to determine how far that advantage shall extend.

As yet, the Democratic party are as far from having a really harmonions policy as they were in 1868. The same elements of discord among themselves exist, now as then, and there is far less open ground of opposition to the Republicans. The policy of Reconstruction, which was then debatable, is now substantially completed, and a large element of the party, formerly willing to oppose it, now concede that it is no longer an open issue. True, the old anti-war element seems strongly inclined to cling to the issues as asserted by the Western delegates to the Tammany Convention in July, 1868. At the South the cry goes up for a "white man's government and the Ohio Dent ocracy at its recent Convention boldly declared its purpose to repeal the 15th Amendment But, on the other hand there is a growing feeling in certain Democratic quarters that resistance to Reconstruction is not only useless, but impolitic. Leading organs East and West, North and South, deprecate further oppo-

The councils of the party are

sition. therefore distracted. So far as policy is concerned, the Democratic party,1 like Orator Puff, has "two tones to its voice," neither of Which prevails. Of course diseord is the inevitable result. Whichever way the question happens to be decided, it will be apparent that mere policy and not conviction controls. The freedmen will see that they can have no affinity with the Democrats the'loyal mid patriotie element will soon become disgusted with the senseless adherence to old prej udices and issues, and the party will drift into the campaign of 1872 without that harmony or enthusiasm which are essential to success.—N, Y.

INDIANA NEWS.

limes has ceased

The Indianapolis publication. Evaiisville has another soap factory. It is just established.

The State papers speak in flattering terms of the prospect for wheat and corn since the late rains.

The Gifford Brothers who performed so wonderfully on the rope at the post office, a few days ago, are at LaFayette.

Anew academy building is in course of construction at Npblesville. The Commercial of that place says it will be a beautiful educational structure—one that the town greatly needs.

Tim Foley, aii Irishman, stabbed John Hammond, an Englishman, at Kendallville, on Monday, so severely that he died in 16 hours afterwards. The only excuse the murderer had was that his victim was unfortunate enough to be an Englishman.

She frequently declared before her death that she was bewitched. The case is one fruitful of interest to scientific minds.

The Indianapolis Journal of to-day says: Rev. J. H. Lozier was attacked, yesterday, while in the Journal office, with a congestive chill, which for a time threatened serious results. He recovered, however, sufficiently to proceed to his home, at Franklin. The many friends of the Chaplain will be anxious to hear of his speedy and complete recovery.

The La Fayette Dispatch says: We learn from almost every quarter that since the late rains, with which our section of country had been blessed, the crops seemed to be inspired with new life. The wheat will be an average crop, and promises an early harvest, whije the corn never looked better than now at this season of the year. Fields look clean, as the dry weather of last month worked greatly to the advantage of the plowman and to the detriment of the weeds. Farmers certainly have no occasion for grumbling so far.

The Washington Gazette of Edinburg says: "George W. Berkshire, charged With grand larceny, was tried in the Pike county Court of Common Pleas on Tuesday, on change of venue, and sentenced to the penitentiary for two years, fined $100, and disfranchised for five years."

The Martin County Herald says: "Some thieves entered the hardware store of Graham & Carnham, of this place on last Saturday, and stole about $100 worth of pocket cutlery, a watch and chain belonging to Mag Carnahan, which had been leic injtiie store. The theft was not discovered until Sunday" morning, when an attempt was made to trace the thieves to their hiding places, but so far it has been without avail.

There were but 11 deaths inside the corporationof Nobles ville, Hamilton Co., last year—about one to every 150 of the population. This shows a remarkable degree of health.

The Indianapolisjournal says:—We learn that 40 active members of the Indianapolis Harmonic Association will take part in the Sangerfest at Cincinnati this week. The excursion will be the most successful in point of numbers that has ever had Cincinnati as the objective point.

The Brownstown (Jackson county) Banner says: Fruit will be short this year. Peaches are played out, and apples are not much better. There area few cherries, and Mr. Baughman has been shipping some of the early varieties, but the crop is short. The people of this county will have to import their fruit this year.

WESTERN LANDS.

Homestead and Pre-emption.

HAVE compiled a fhll, Concise and complete I statement,plainly printed for the information of persons, intending to take up a Homestead or Pre-Emption in this poetry of the West, embracing Iowa, Dakota, and Nebraska and oMier sections. It explains how to proceed to secure 1((0 acres of Rich Farming Land for Nothing, six months before you leave your home, in the most healthful climate. In short it contains

such instructions as are needed by those intending to make a Home and Fortune in the Free Lands of the West. I will send one ol these printed Guides to any person for 25 cents. The information alone, which, it gives is worth $5 to anybody. Men who came here two and three years ago, and took a farm, are to-day independent.
