A Biographical Sketch Written by the Late S. B. Gookins

Of the Pioneer Editor of the Wabash Valley

For Hill's History of Vigo County— An Interesting Sketch.

The editor and proprietor of the first newspaper published in the town of Terre Haute, Indiana, was born at St Johns, Now Brunswick, February 7, 1794. He was the second son of Captain Samuel Osborn, a gallant and accomplished officer in the British navy.

Ilis grandfather and eldest brother, Captain William Osborn, were also both officers in the service of his majesty the King of England. Also his maternal grandfather, for whom he was named, held a aptain's commission and was an intimate friend of General Brock, acted as commissary general, &c., and filled many places of trust.

William Osborn, the oldest son of cap: tain Samuel Osborn Jun., was promoted, to a captaincy very young for bravery during several sharp engagements at sea. Thus by the divine right of inheritance and early associations Mr. John "W. Osborn was fitted for the struggles and difficulties of pioneer life which need a brave heart, untiring devotion, progressive and aggressive to the principles of right.

Mr. Osborn's mother was Alice Willson, the daughter of Col. John Wilson and Rebecca Thixton, his wife. She was born on Staten Island. She was educated in New York where the family lived always apart of each year, her father being an officer in the British army, loyal to his king. They left the United States and made a new home in Canada, living -sometimes.at Halifax, Quebec, Montreal, Cananocqua, and finally settling down at Toronto, buying land and laying as they supposed a permanent foundation for a home. Col. Wilson sent to Scotland and brought out a hundred families and settled them upon his lands in Canada and, believing- in the magic power of the press to enlighten and civilize, he sent to England and had a printing press, type, and men to do the woik, sent out to the almost wilderness.

Col. Joseph Willcox, who was a member of the Provincial Parliament, an ardent politician, an educated Irish gentleman and a Republican, was associated with 31 r. Osborn in publishing the Upper Canada Guardian and Freeman's Journal.

Mr. Osborn late in life spoke of Col. Willcox as one whose name he loved, trnd referring to his association with him, said, "I then and there drank in Uie principles of free government which have remained with me until this hour, and which changed the whole course ol my life." Mr. Osborn's devotion to republican institutions and his belief in the justness of the American cause led him on, the breaking out of the war of 1812, to espouse with all the fire and energy of his nature, the side of free ijovernmcut. On flie 14th of August he left country, home, kindred and friends, and crossed Lake Ontario from Toronto, to the United States.

He was induced through the representations of Mr. Denny, book publisher, of Albany, to go to Homer, Cortland Co., N. Y., where he took charge of, and edited The Covrtland Republican a paper still published there. He however soon removed his office to Cortlandville, the county seat, for a time.

His paper was ardently devoted to the United States government. He continu,s ed the publication until 1816. In that year Indiana was admitted to the Union

HS a sovereign state, and the spirit of ad venture at that time rife in the land led Jam with many others to the inviting /-fields the then "far West." In 1817 he came to Yincennes and soon afterwards secured the officc ot the Wentern Sun the first newspaper published in In.diana

At that time the slavery question was much discussed. The ordinance of 1787, excluding slavery from the territory north-west of the Ohio river, was almost "universally disregarded. Slaves tfere ""held at Vinceimes aud other places, and were brought and sold. Indiana had just bfcen admitted into the Union and having by a clause in her constitution prohibited slavery,- the holders of slaves became mneasv, and as a consequence a scheme ""was adopted for making what profit they could out of the stock on hand, which was to be carried out by

running

!accouht

the negroes oft to the

slave states and selling thetn. Adventurers were found who were ^willing to go into the business of kidnap^ping for a profit. This was winked at ~v\by many of the most popular and influ--^ential men, and for any one to espouse the cause of the slave was to subject hiin*..,$self to the odium, not to say contemptu%^ous persecution of a majority of the peo»ple in that region. But the proscribed race were not without friends, and one of mthe most active of these was Mr. Osborn. ^Having suffered immeasurbly by separa--tion from home kindred and friends on

of his devotion to the principles

of freedom he did not propose to accept a mere sham and pretense, for the precious

boon

he sought at so great a sacrifice.

V. He not only protested but defended the negro, and pursued the kidnapper and rescued his victims. He, co-operating with -Mothers like minded, carried the question -v to the Supreme Court and obtained a decision which set at rest forever the question of slavery in Indiana,

In 1838 Mr.Osborn came to Terre Haute "and established the "Western Register?'' The first number was printed July 21, and created quite a sensation. A newspaper. really and truly printed in the wilderness! Men, women and children came from all the

country

government, and the development of rich and lovely valley of the Wab

er{

Mr. Osborn was cotemporary with Rob Owen, Rapp, Flower and many othe of less note, would-be reformers, but a his teachings had the true ring of patriotism and Christianity.

During the summer of 1823 Mr. Osborn made one of his characteristic exploring trips on horseback up the Wabash river, intending to visit Fort Dearborn, now Chicago. Early one lovely morning he arrived at the Tippecanoe battle ground where he discovered that after the soldiers had left the field the Indians had returned and dug up the remains of the brave heroes and stripped, scalped and tomahawked them and left them to be devoured by wild beasts, and the bones had lain bleaching in sun and storms for twelve years.

When Mr. Osborn returned to Terre Haute he had an interview with Captain Nathaniel Huntington, and influenced him to proceed with his company carefully collected, "The Wabash Greens," to Tippecanoe. The remains were, and by them, re-intered and enshrouded with military honors.

Mr. Osborn was ever ready to render honor to the generous, noble 'and brave, and quick scorn and flashing indignation for the mercenary and selfish.

One summer day in the year 1828 he was passing by the court-house square, and, lying partly screened by some hazel bushes, he saw a man senseless, apparently dead. The man was only drunk! Mr. Osborn had known him in Toronto a prominent merchant, an honored man. He covered the poor wretch's face to protect it from sun, insects, and the derision of passers-by. From that hour he was an uncompromising temperance man. His heart swelled with indignation toward the man who for a few cents would see a fellow max# degraded and wallowing in the dust, and from this incident probably the first temperance movement in the country originated.

Education, free education, was*anotlier subject of intense interest to him. During the year 1829 his health gave way, caused by his untiring exertions, and he retired from the editorial chair and went upon his farm, five miles south of, the city, from which he received great benefit.

In 1834 his old feeling in regard to the power and importance of the "Press" returned, and feeling that there was great value in the knowledge and talents that he possessed, he looked about him for a field of action, and decided upon Greencastle, Putnam county, considering it a healthy, desirable region of country. He purchased a printing office and sent out his paper, The PUnighboy, broadcast, atfll inclosed in it a small temperance paper which he published in pamphlet form, of eight pages, and sent to his subscribers gratuitously, called the Temperance Advocate, the first temperance paper ever published in the West.

Temperance in those days was as unpopular as warning against slavery and required unbounded moral courge and a trhce of "fighting blood," both of which he inherited in good measure from a brave and chivalous ancestry. This paper was devoted to the interests of agriculture, education and temperance, in the promotion of all which he was a zealous and efficient laborer.

Iti Greencastle he was surrounded by, congenial iissociates, Dr. Alexander Stephenson, Dr. Tarviu and Judge Cowgill. Rces, Hafdesty and others.

To Mr. Osborn's exertions were due in a great measure the establishment at Greencstle of the Indiana Asbuiy Uni versitv, the leading educational institution of the State of the Methodist denomination, of which he was a conscientious active member.

In 1838 he removed his establishment to Indianapolis, changed the name to the "Indiana Fanner ami Stock Register,'1'' was electedJState Printer, also continued the publication of his temperance paper. At the close of his term of office he retired from the press on account of ill health, but was a contributor to various local journals during most of his life. When the war of the rebellion broke out, too old to take the field and too zealous a supporter of the government to per mit of his remaining idle, he wentto Sullivan,' county seat of Sullivan Co., and published a war campaign paper under the title of the Stars and Strioes, where he rendered valuable service to the Union cause.

This was his la&t venture in journalism. His health continued to decline until his death, which occurred in Greencastle on the 12th of November, 1866. His latest hours were marked by painful disease patient resignation, and Christian faith

^DEFENDING HANCOCK.

The Washington Capital of yesterday contains a long interview with Judge Clampette, Mrs Surratt's counsel, who, after saying Mrs. Surratt was brutally treated previous to her trial, adds: "Hancock had no more to do with these details than you had. When Judge Wylie, with a Roman majesty of character, issued almost at the peril of his life the writ of habeas corpus in the case of Mrs. Surratt, President Johnson and Secretary Stanton decided to suspend the writ and the execution followed. We had hopes to the last of a reprieve and a pardon for Mrs. Surratt, and I waited at the arsenal hoping against hope General Hancock rode down, and approaching, I asked, 'Are there any hopes?' He shook his head slowly arw mournfully, and, with a sort of gasping catch in his speech said: 'I am afraid not no, there is not.' He then walked off a bit. He had dismounted and gave some orders to his orderlies and walked about for a moment or two. Returning he said to me: 'I have been in many a battle, and have seen death, and mixed with it in disaster and victory. I have been in a living hell of fire and grape-shot, and by God, I'd sooner be there ten thousand times over than to give the order this day for the excution of that poor womon but I am a soldier sworn to obey and obey I must./

SEHATOR VOORHEES'

Speech at the Ratification Meeting at Indianapolis

There was arousing ratification meettin 2 at Indianapolis Monday, at which ex-Oovc-rnor Hendricks, Hon. Wm. H. English, Senator McDonald, Hon. D. W. Voorhees and others spoke. The following is a condensed report of Senator Voorhees' speech:

VOORHEES' SPEECH,'

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—I would be much more or much less than human if I did not respond with heart full and overflowing with the deepest gratitude for such a reception as this. I teel that In dianapolis is as much my home as any place in the State: and I feel strong in the tie that binds you and me together as Constituent and as representative. I have a few words to say, and not many, here to night. I went to Cincinnati, my friends, with my heart determiued on a result that' did not happen. went to Cincinnati with an earnest, deep-rooted purpose of many years, and I felt, and I feel still that I would have given years of my life— shortened my existence—could I have brought about that which I desired. I desired to put in the hands of the most 'distinguished son of Indiana the banner which we are following here to-night. It was not to be. It was no fault of his, and it was no fault of his frjends, and in thinking over the events of the history illustrative of the position which we occupy to-night I draw some consolation Those who have been fit to be President, as I ventured to assert on the behalf of

Indiana's favorite son at Cincinnati, have not always been President. Henry Clay was not President of the United States, although no man had more devo% tion than he had in endeavoring to make him such. Daniel Webster often presented and often balloted for, was not President. General Lewis Cass was not President Thomas II. Benton was not President and in that great galaxy—I speak for myself not venturing to speak for another,—I would be prouder to be placed than to be placed with those who have occupied that hirih and exalted position. However my fellow-citizens, when that high honor was not given'to Indiana, I am very frank to say to you that the first man my heart reached out to outside of its borders was General Hancock. [Applause.] I know the man well I have known him long years I have known him to be the soul of chivalric honor, and I know him not to be merely a high and gall'ant soldier, as has ridden along the lines of battle with thundering artillery belching on his front and the hot rattle of musketry all around him at the time when those- who now malign him in the columns of the newspapers crouched in the rear [Applause.] I know him well as such a man as that and know him as something more I know him as a statesman by intuition. Educated at West Point let him be, having the career of a soldier, so be it in comp, all right, but with the instinct of popular liberties the first great question of constitutional government, the rights of the citizen, free speech, trial by jury, habeas corpus ever came to him, he knew, as the mother knows her child, by instinct., Some men have tb be educated to questions of that kind. Some men of great honor gain them, because, after long years of civil service, they know those questions by heart. He knew those great questions the moment they were presented to him at once. Is not such a man as that lit to be President? [Cries of "yes," "yes."] He perceived their true relations, and announced them at once. My fellow citizens, I witnessed the Cincinnati convention. It was a wonderful event. I never saw the like before. I never shall see its like again. We had longed for ,Union soldiers of the Union, fought for the Union. I saw a union in the Cincinnati Convention. This great soldier and statesman, when his name was presented, attracted around him those elements which, for the first time since theJ?lose of the war.proclaimed Si at the war was done. I saw a sight there which I never witnessed before, and which I never expect to again. When it became evident that the nomination of Hancock was a fixed fact, I saw the standards of the States gathered up close together in a little circle like this before me some of them were borne by onelegged Confederate soldiers, who had fought Hancock at Gettysburg who had fought him in the Wilderness men I knew personally. I saw them walking on one leg, some bearing the banner in one haild. I saw soldiers from the North, too—from the various Northern States, coming down the front, and as they put their banners together it seemed as if those banners kissed. I saw General Butler, of South Carolina, limping on one leg, the other he had lost on the field of battle fighting Hancock, placing banner close up to the banner of Massachusetts. It seemed to me that the mil lennial of the Union had come, and come in fact at last. Where is the man that talks of -the bloody shirt to-night Where is the poor, sneering, indignant creature, who talks to-night about the disloyalty of the South to the union of the States When I saw this going on I thought, can it be possible that I witnessed such a scene? But there arose before me sighis like this I saw. As I have often talked with Hancock and others that were with him. I saw a line of battle fixed by him at Gettysburg. I saw him ride coolly, bareheaded, down his line, and I saw, or I seemed to see, at the head of the opposing line Gordon and Pickett and Longstreet and Lee, the tide of battle charging against each other. I seemed to see him march in the Wrongest positions in the wilderness 2^,000 muskets at the shoulders of the troops I saw that terrible conflict of battle between the gray, commanded by Longstreet, and by him, and when the leaden hail fell like raindrops, and I saw at the head of the surviving shock qf battle crowned with laurel wreath of-scenic glory a man whom they have now chosen to be the Chief Magistrate. Is that the disloyal people? Is that no act of self-sacrifice? Is that no act of glory on their part? You tell me that his nomination was prearrangement of the party." I stand as y«ur representative to tell you that no arrangement was made for General Hancock's nomination no bureaus represented him nobody came there opening rooms and heralding his nomination in advance the country. It commenced with a little cloud not bigger than a

man's hand. It came from Louisiana and Texas, who, in their down-trodden condition felt first his uplifting hand, and heard first his kind words years ago. They came there doubtless not expecting to nominate the man who had done so much, but desiring to evince their love and affection. It spread like the wind all over that vast hall, and from mouth to mouth, from tongue to tongue, and from hand to hand the voice went forth that here is a man great for the Union, a soldier with a sword in his hand—great for liberty.

Mr. Voorhees concluded, amidst great applause, by showing tbc manner in which the Republicans of his part bf the State received the news of the nomination of Hancock and English.
