THUBSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1870.

Hon. T. A. Hendricks. £7:

Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks spouse in this city last evening to quite a large audience of ladies and gentlemen. He was listened to with marked attention and made the very best speech that could be made from a Democratic standpoint. Indeed we must do Mr. Hendricks the justice to say, that his effort was an able one, and worthy the national reputation he enjoys of being one of the first and most prominent men in the Democratic party. It must have been refreshing to a Terre Haute audience, to listen to the calm, statesmanlike argu ments of the ex-Senator, after their ears had so recently been stormed by the "hitch cock a doodle, "ad cap tandum," gusty, windy sophisms of Mr. Voorhees. It was the refreshing, pleasant shower after the thunder and lightning, wind and fury of the storm.

Mr. Hendricks spoke from the figures, and gave correct statements of the State debt, and its payment. He admitted that under the Republican administration of the State, her debt had been paid off, excepting that portion still owing to the School Fund. He admitted this, for thts is the fact. But Mr. H. as&ed the question, "How has this deW been paid." He then told the people that it was done by levying a special tax of ten cents on every one hundred dollars of the property of the State and this is the fact. Mr. Hendricks seemed to be of the opinion, that he had made a point here.

If the distinguished gentleman can point out to us, any way by which a State can pay a debt, except by taxing the people to do it, we will regard ourselves under obligations to him. If there is any other way to get the money to pay the people's debt, we have never been able to discover it. Of course the millions required to pay the debt had to be raised by taxation. Who ever thought of anything else Mr, Hendricks did not perhaps know, that the important reason why the Legislature of 1865—6 levied this special tax of ten cents, was, because the whole of the Five and Two and one-half per cent, stocks, wore morally due on the 16th day of January 180G, and that our creditors were clamerous for their pay. Under this state of the case, that Legislature wisely passed the bill to pay the State debt, and under its operation the debt has been paid. It did not require great financial skill to do this, nor do we think there is much merit in it either way. The Legislature simply levied a tax to pay the debt, and the officers of the State honestly appropriated the monies thus collected to the purpose intended. It was a good thing, as far as it goes, and it was done during the Republican administration of the affairs of the State.

Unlike Mr. Voorhees, Mr. Hendricks admitted that under the administration of President Grant, the National debt had been reduced but made the point, that the Secretary of the Treasury had paid an average of eighteen per cent, over the par value of the bonds which he had thus redeemed. He admitted that this was done in accordance with a law of Con trress, but seemed at the same time desirous to censure the Secretary for doing what the law made it his duty to do.

Our judgment is that the law referred to by the Honorable gentleman ought never to have been passed, and perhaps should be repealed, but?it is the law of the land, and it is the duty of an officer to obey the law. But Mr. H. did not, like Mr. Voorhees does, advocate the issuing of enough Greenbacks to pay off all the 5-20 bonds at once. This specimen of specious demogougism, was not referred to by the eloquent speaker.

Mr. Hendricks next discussed the Funding Bill. The point he made in relation to this matter was that had the law been left unchanged in relation to the payment of the principal of the na tional debt in greenbacks, there would be some hope of having the 5-20 bonds drawing six per cent per annum, returned, and the new bonds issued under the Funding Bill, drawing 4, 4$ and 5 per cent, substituted for them. But as it is now determined to pay the principal of those 5-20 bonds in coin, there was not the shadow of a hope that the government would be able to get any of her bonds bearing this low rate of interest on the market. This may be ture, and we would not be surprised if it is, but is it not worth making the trial? The government can only make the offer contemplated under the Funding bill, and if our creditors do not see proper to comply with it, the people may determine to make another offer which will not be so favorable. It is an experiment we concede, but it is an experiment right and proper to be made. Those are the questions discussed by Mr. Hendricks, and to say that he presented them calmly, and with great force of reasoning, is only doingthe distinguished gentleman that justice his commanding ability demands.

Banks.

We hear it rumored in financial circles that an important addition is about being made to the banking capital of Indianapolis, being no less than the addition of five hundred thousand dollars to the capital of one of our national banks. The bank referred to is even now one of the largest and most prosperous in the city or State, and the addition contemplated will make it rank with the strongest in the United States. Indianapolis needs capital, and we sincerely hope this rumor may prove well founded.—Evening News.

We learn from a reliable source that the rumor referred to in the above paragraph from the News is an accomplished" fact. The bank referred to is the First National Bank of Indianapolis, and the increase of

We know our capitalists and baukers are very anxious to increase their bankine capital, but have always labored under the impression that it could not be done.

BE abop1£d.

^r:v

Notwithstanding the other meetings and other ^toactions in the city last night, a lai^Midintelligentaudienceassembled at ffl^Vigwam for the purpose of listening to the speech of Rev. W. W. Curry, on the subject of the 15th Amendment. Prof. Tout's Band discoursed excellent music in front of, and in the Wigwam, after which Mr.

Curry

proceeded to

address the audience. We can of course, only give a brief synopsis of his speech, which was by far the most able of all the speeches that gentleman has delivered in this city this season.

INTRODUCTION.

Starting out he said that in the Roman Panthion there was an image called Janus, which had two faces, the one looking forward to the front,-while the other looked to the rear of behind. This was a representation of different classes of men—one class, designated as Conservatives were always looking backward, and claimed that all wisdom was with the fathers. The other class was always looking forward, had progress inscribed on thej/ banners, and was from this considervition termed Radicals, because they were in favor of progress. The Republican party had been a progressive party, hence by the Democracy, it had been designated a radical party, and the Republicans accepted it.

This government is Republican, and therefore it

give3

the right to make

changes, and especially to protect the rights of all its people and citizens. The government is progressive, but all its people are not so. One party would carry us back to the past, but the other would carry us forward to the bright future of human progress, and human improvement. In all divisions of parties, there are Radical and Conservative elements. So much by way of introduction.

FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT.

The 15th amendment was the result of circumstances. When the Revolutionary war had ended, it'was found that the founders of the Government had to grapple with slavery. In the formation of the Government, and the adoption of the constitution, slavery was not recognized. It was repudiated by Jefferson, Madison, and all the founders of the Government, but it was found to exist, and, while it was not recognized, it was thought that it would soon die out as a result Of American institutions. But this did not prove to be the case. It was found that it was constantly making aggressions, and a warfare between slavery and freedom became inevitable, sooner or later. However, this power grew until it got possession of all the departments of the General Government.

When the slave trade was cut off, it only tended to increase the home production of slaves, so that failed to meet the desired end and only tended to fasten more strongly the chains of slavery. The cotton gin was introduced, and that resulted in making slave labor more profitable, and to fasten more firmly the chains of slavery. Thus on from one step to another the slaves were bound. It was contended that slaves were unprofitable. so they were, Accept when the slave producing tiaoo licxri tHp. Dower to make them profitable. A powerful class at last sprung up in the South, which grew into a powerful aristocracy, and when they became powerful, charged that the Northern Radicals were making war on their property.

The Territory South West was dedicated to freedom, and that the South was occupied by slave holders. When the North Western Territory was settled there came a fierce struggle, but it was at last settled that slavery should not exist North of a certain line. This, all will remember, and how the slavery propagandists sought to extend it.

The culture of cotton inthe South, made the lands poorer while the North grew richer, and, contention aro3e, and at last the doctrine of State rights was inaugurated, and followed by that of nullification which practically grew out of slavery, it being at the bottom of that doctrine.

To carry out this doctrine a selection of one of the political parties must be made and for that purpose the Democratic party was chosen, because that party was in power, and many of the leaders of that party were at the head of the nullification movement. It was thus that the Democratic party was forced to become the champion of slavery, and its work commenced, first, by extending the borders of Missouri, by which seven counties made from lands dedicated to freedom were added.

Then the war against Mexico was for the porpose of extending slavery and to add fresh lands for the purpose of growing cotton by slave labor. Mr. Wilmot a Democrat, introduced a proviso that no territory acquired by the war against Mexico, should after being acquired, be made slave territory. The party had not become entirely, familiar with slavery, up to that time, but then a fierce conflict arose, and at last the Wilmot proviso was defeated, and the slaveocracy again triumphant. It did not stop there, but after that, the passage of the fugitive slave law, and in 1850 what are known as compromise measures, were passed, and then came a complete surrender of the Democratic party to the slave propagandists of the South. In 1852 the Whig party entered the contest it was a defeated party, for it had compromised away its existence, and it was in tact a dead party, as it ought to have been. After this came another struggle for freedom, that of Kansas, for instance, and then came a change in the Democratic party, but it was not done without a fierce struggle. The Republican party had sprung "up and such men as Chase, Sumner, Wilmot, &c., John C. Fremont and Oliver P. Morton, and a host of the best men in the Democratic party became the leaders in the cause of freedom in the new

party.

The old party was made up of slavery propagandists, and the party of men in favor of freedom and liberty to all.

All this is to tell you why we were called Radicals, and why we accepted the appelation. The Republican party is the party of the clay, aud the party to lead the people. When it was organized, it was on the principle of eternal justice, and the first step was to organize on the declaration of independence, that "all men were created free and equal, &c." The first great battles between the

existing parties were fought on the prin- and' ciples of freedom and slavery. The iToi 1 ^1S

slave, no more than a^inst itself could stand. The first triumph of the Republican principles was in wresting Kansas from the gr&sp of the slaveocracy, and the next question was, shall tUe people decide this great qnustion. Whet* Mr. Fremont was a candidate we were told that if the Democrats were beaten, they would not submit, but would appeal to arms. We did not then think them so foolish, but the sequel proved they were in earnest. We told them that if they were beaten we would submit, and that they must but the four years of President Buchanan's administration proved that it was but a four years' preparation for an appeal to arms, ease they were defeated in 1860. We were successful, and the revolt came, it need not be repeated what this war cost wolrea?^e

cause. That while the rebels were fight--ing against the government, the negroes were at home at work raising supplies for that army. Hence came the emancipation proclamation, but with that some fault was found, bat the people soon saw the necessity of it. Without that, the war for.the preservation of the Union would not perhaps have been successful. Well, the battles were fought, and the slaves were freed, but we could not stop there. The Democrats told us that the emancipation proclamation was unconstitutional. We were then obliged -to make it constitutitnal by the adoption of the 13thamendment. You and I then thought the end had come, but in that we were mistaken.

It was the intention of the Republicans to reconstruct the South on a loyal basis, the Democracy fought us, and then came the passage of the civil rights bill. Then came that same old charge against us by the Democracy, that it was unconstitutional, and we were compelled to put a stop to that by the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment. Well, we thought that after the adoption of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments, the Democracy would surley stop, and that the rebel States could be reconstructed on a loyal basis, but that was not so. The Democracy being fearful that the negroes would beat them, and finally out-strip their intelligence, wanted the passages of laws to keep the negroes down. They were not disposed to give it up yet. What next? The rebels reorganized their military force, this time secretly, on a secret system under the name of Ku-Klux-Klan, and commenced persecuting the loyal element of the South. The Union men were hunted down, and loyal negroes killed in all sections of the country. What was still to be done Congress found that the rebels would- ..have to be disfranchised, or that all the loyal men in the South, irrespective of race or color, would have to be taken in. There was but one course to pursue. The negroes had always been loyal to the government, and now that they had been given their freedom, made citizens of the United States, to reconstruct the South, but one step more was to be taken, and that was the adoption of the 15th amendment. Congress was compelled to do this, or accept the other alternative,—disfranchise the rebels,—in order to effect the work of reconstruction. Thi?, in justice to a race of people first made free, then citizens, and at last voters, which was all done by the threats of the Democracy that if they got in power, they would upset all we had done, and establish the old order of things. To prove this Mr. Curry read from the Democratic platform made at New York which proposed to remove all political disabilities, for offenses against the Government, then to turn over all the rebel States to former rebels, and the negroes also. This is what caused the passage of the 15th amendment. It was to give the loyal black man, .a right to protect himself. Thus it was that at every step taken from the commencement of the struggle for freedom to all, the Democrats held back, and not only this, but during the whole war, and since the War. The rapid progressive steps that have been taken, were caused by the sympathy of the Democracy, not only during the war, but ever since it closed slavery and rebels.

We have thus, in brief, given a synop sis of the speech, but do not claim that it does justice to the effort. To have been properly appreciated, it should have been heard. The speaker was frequently interrupted by uuLi/urota of applause at some sally of wit, or at an eloquent fligiit, but from beginning to end it was listened to with the most profound attention. Want of space precludes the possibility of making a further synopsis of his re marks.

DURING

the late war between France

and Geamany, the Chicago Times espoused the side of the former in such a bitter and vindictive way as to drive over to the Republican party every German Democrat in the Scate of Illinois. A sample of the spirit which it displayed before the surrender of the Emperor, is shown in the following extract from one of its leading editorials: "The party which sympathises with France is the party of Washington, Jefferson, Wright and Douglas. The party Which sympathizes with Prussia is the party of the rail-splitting Lincoln, the horse-thief Brown, the Beast Butler, the renegade Logan, the pedantic Sumner, the Fourierite and free-lover Greeley, the imbecile, drunken

Yates, Nye and Chand

ler. The rift-raff", the place-hunters, the demagogues, and vote-seekers of this country are they, and they only, who sympathize with Prussia."

As soon, however, as the French armies were overpowered, through the stupidity and blindness of the Emperor, who had rushed into war without a cause, and what in the eyes of the French nation is even worse, without preparation, the Times begins to excuse Napoleon and cast blame upon the French people. In its issne of September 4 it says "In one sense, this overwhelming defeat is no more than retribution. The war was forced by the French people. They demanded it. They clamored for it, until Napoleon had to elect between I

marked the agencies of his reign. He wanted no war with Prussia and he found himself involved in one as the consequences of French ambition and Prussian aggressions. Of all the victims of this bloody contest, he is the least deserving of his fate."

It is not true that Napoleon was forced into the war by the French people. There was a party and an anti-war party in I France before the declaration was actual-1" ly made.

HAVE compiled complete printed for the information: of persons, intending to take tip a Homestead.or Pre-Emption in this poetry of the West, embracing Iowa, Dakota, and Nebraska and other sections. It explains how to proceed to secure 160 acres of Rich Farming Land for Nothing, six months before you leave your home, in the most healthful climate, in short it contains just such instructions as are needed by these intending to make a Home and Fortune in the Free Lands of the West. I will send one oi 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.

To YOUNG MEN.

This country is being crossed with numerous Railroads from every direction to Sioux City, Iowa. Six Railroads will be made to this city within one year. One is already in operation connecting us with Chicago and the U. P. Railroad and two more will be completed before spring, connecting us with Dubuque and McGregor, direct. Three more will be completed within a year, connecting us direct with St Paul, Minn., Yankton, Dakota, and Columbus Nebraska, on the U. P. Railroad. The Missour River gives us the Mountain Trade. Tr us it wi 1 be seen that no section of country offers such unprecedented advantages for business, speculation and making a fortune, for the country is being populated, and towns and cities are being built, and fortunes made almost beyond belief. Every man who takes a homestead now will have a railroad market at his own door, And any enterprising young man with a small capital can establish himsdf in a permanent paying business, if he selects the right location ana right branch of trade. Eighteen years residence in the western country, and a large portion ot the time employed as a Mercantile Agent in thii country, has made me familiar with alltlia branches of business and the best locations in this country. For one dollar remitted to me 1 will give truthful and definite answers to all questions on this subject desired by such persons. Tell them the best place to locate, and what business is overcrowded and what branch is neglected. Address,
