The Jonrnal of Friday.

We were willing the Journal should say we belonged to the "dark lanterns," the "midnight conclaves," the "oath-bound perjured party," for those are the stereotyped phrases, used by the Old Liners, from whose beaten track the editor dare not, for one moment, deviate. But when he, in his superlative wisdom, and profound historical knowledge, accused us of boing a member of "the Druids of political Mona," we were not willing to bear the Soft impeachment, because we withdrew from that society sometime ago. By the way, Mac, how' did you find out our connection with this order Did you have a political friend to join, as you did with the KnowNothings, having the understanding that your name should be presented immediately after your friend bec&mc a member Andwasyour name proposed and rejected as it was in the K. N. lodge And is this the reason you aro now throwing it up to us? 'vThflJournal says: "The National Democrats and Whigs are fighting the battle of civilization, and religious liberty, and they will not measure words with bloody Ozars and skulking Cossacks." Well, we do not blame them—this Alexander of all the Russia's, is unworthy any consideration from the Democratic party, and much less a notice from the Terre-Haute Journal

AlU ihis announcement, tho''bloody Caar" will immediately make peace, wo have no doubt, and these "skulking Cossacks," who hntig upon tho rear of an army, like vultures scenting their prey, will disband, for now, the editor of the Journal will no longer "measure words" with them.

Mac. is at a loss to know what we consider a "manly discussion of principles—don't wonder at his obtuseuess on this subject, as he has never indulged in that kind of discussion, his ignorance is rather commendable. He, however, propounds two questions, in tho following lucid period: "He does not mean, surely, a war of religious frenty, or, rather an absence of ull religion." Wo must have meant, a war of "an absence of all religion," for the clearness of that thought would most forcibly have struck tho mind of MCLEAN. However, the glovo is thrown down, and wo aro challenged to an "examination into the elemental basis of the •democratic faith." Well now, hero is a poser, and to comprehend the deep thought therein hidden, we must apply the analytical process of reasouing. "Elemental" has reference to some one of tho four elements, fire, wind, water and earth. If the Journal drives us to this extremity, we 'will maintain, the Democracy have unbounded confidence in the efficacy of fire, and use it. most profusely in a liquid state—that the basis of their faith is dependent on a free use of -wind, of whiQjh the Journal is one of tho most expert blowers, and that their immutability is as unstable as water, which is demonstrated by tho different complexions of their platforms, in tho last few years.

Thus far, we have in a playful ^ay, replied to tho Journal's article of Friday, There was nothiug in it that we thought merited a seri5 out reply—there was no point about it aud we will not bo so uncharitable as to impute its authorship to any other than the real ostensible editor of that paper—it is Billy, every word of it—juit as certainly his, as it is certain tho article we replied to some days ago, tees not his. Tia true, he claims tkmt leader as "his own." and says, he is "personally and individually responsible for it." This wo knew before, because it was an editorial, aud in his editorial column. But did you twife it,

Mac That's the question. Is one word of -it your composition? Breathlessly and treinb lingly we "pause for a reply."

In conclusion, let us propound some quos tions to be answered by the editor, or any of the adjuncts of the Journal, and if tbey do not strike exactly at the "elemental basis of the Democratic faith," they may, at the same time, merit a passing consideration.

Is the old Old Line party^aa a patty, for or against a prohibitory liquor law Are they in favor of the prefect naturalisation law of this State?—and if not, what amendments would they propose? Do they sustain the present administration And what is their opiuion in relation to the ruffianism cxerctsed by the Mis&ourians over the ballot box in Kan£t» How long has it been, since the Democratic party *tn making every effort, to secure the vole of the Abolitionist, and the precbe time when they changed their policy in this respect? Lastly, do the Old Line party belong to the foreigner*, or do the foreigners be1 ng to the Old Line party? t.f"

Notice to the Republican Pre«« of Indiana. We call the especial attention of the Republican prints of Indiana, to the necessity of a meeting of their editors at an early day, say on Monday, 26th Nov. prox., and that Indianpolis be the place. The united action of the press is necessary, and while they are generally right on the subject, there are details in which it is necessary to agree. This course will be productive of the most wholesome po litical results, besides cultivating a more friendly personal acquaintance among those co-workers in THK GRKAT CAUSE.—Ft. Wayne Time*.

We arc decidedly in favor of the above suggestions, and thank Bro. Dawson for them.— We however think with the Republican, that the time should be deferred until after the decision of the Supreme Court upon the Liquor Law. That is an important question, and we should know, what is to be the fate of the law, before the press, can shape ,jts course .for the public good.

All that the' Republican or Amoricari press has to do in the coming campaign, is to be united upon the great questions that now disturb the public mind, and are so dear to the American heart, and success will crown their $ 3

The opposition can no more withstand a well concerted attack, than did the puny hosts, led by Santa Anna, confront the triumphant army led by the hero of Mexico.

Let the time be fixed, and whether it be sooner or later, our feeble efforts will be exerted for the good of our cause, and for the right.

His remarks we were precluded from hearing but iudging from the severe strictures of them, in that highly reliable sheet, the Wabash Ex press, we should presume they were excellent, and very edifying to the auditory. We want no better evidence of the merits of his speech, than abuse from such a source.

These are the Terre-Hautc Journal's remarks as regards 0. B. Ficklin's speech in this city, some days ago. Of course, Mac wants no better evidence that a specch isa^oorfone, than to hear some ono express a contrary opinion. These Old Line editors all go by contraries.— Whatever is right they say is wrong—whatever is truth they believe to be error—whatever is a miserable jumbling together of balderdash and nonsense, they regard as beautiful sayings and the quintescence of the "elemental basis of Democratic faith."

We have no doubt, the evidence before the editor of the Journal in relation to Mr. Ficklin's speech, is altogether satisfactory—perfectly conclusive, and he can consistently tell his readers that "it was vory edifying to the auditory." "Pinia co roil at opus."

This sweet morceau as miafht be expected, went the rounds of all the Ned Buntline organs in the State, our delectable neighbor of the Kxpress, of course, being among the first to revamp the base fabrication.—T. H. Jour.

The above is in relation to our copying in the columns of the Express, an article from the Vincennes Gazette, in which it was asserted, that Mr. Willard, when he spoke in that city, was in a state of "absolute intoxication."

Since then, the frinds of Mr. Willard have endeavored to procure cert.ifioaus from citizens in Vincennes, to the effect that he was not thus under the influence of liquor! But after a strenuous effort they have given it up, and concluded what the Gazette said was Irue.

What becomes of the Journal's charge, now, of our "being among the first to revamp the .. Vi base fabrication."

A Looting Game.

Some of the residents along the T. H. & R. Railroad, in order to secure cheap pasturage, are in the habit, as we learn, of turning their stock inside the enclosure of the road. Thus on Fnday night last, a flock of sheep feeding on the company's pasture, was thrice scattered, by trains running through them, killing T9 or 15 of their number. Of course the owners bear the loss, the sheep having no right inside the enclosure. v£f^i

dorsement of all those measures, so eminently calculated to secure the peace and quiet possession of* ottr'Western frontier.

Then it is to be understood that the democracy of our sister State, indorses all the acts of Franklin Pierce—that he has *:bcen faithful to the^rust reposed in him," by recalling Reeder for simply discharging his duty—"that he has carried out in the ablest manner tbe p.":M ciples embodied in the Democratic faith," by appointing Shannon, Governor of Kansas, and giving "aid and comfort" to a lawless band of Missouri ruffians, who, with the bow-ie-knife, and by physical force, sought to control the ballot-box of an independentterritory— that he "has been vigilent, prompt and firm in sustaining the honor and dignity of the government," by giving the influence of his position in sustaining Stringfellow and his mock legislature, and endeavoring to impose on the people of Kansas, laws passed by an illegal tribunal, and totally at war with the freedom of conscience, and the privileges of an American citizen. That he deserves the "thanks of the whole country for the indorsement of all those measures, so eminently calculated to secure the peace and quiet possession of our Western frontier," by refusing to call out the military force of the country, when the individual rights of the citizen were trampled un der foot by an armed inob—'Jy shrinking from responsibilities of every kind, and leaving the citizens of Kansas a prey to th« unwonted insultsof Atchison and his unprincipled followers

It will be news to the Old Liners hereabouts, that the present administration is to be indorsed by their party, and it will be nuts for ihe Americans, that such is to be case.

Appeal from the Pope!

We wrote an article a few days ago, on tho "religions test," in which we stated that the Pope at Rome, did. through his Archbishops and Bishops in this country, seek to exercise a temporal influence over members of the Catholic Church. That article has created some stir among those whose train of thought runs in that channel, and it is asserted, we were hasty in expressing an opinion on that subject. We have no doubt there are many Roman Catholics who do not acknowledge this jurisdiction of the Holy See, yet in our judgment, the great mass of tlietn do.

That the Catholic Church as a church, does avow her right to the full exercise af this temporal power, wo think is conclusively shown from the following pastoral letter of the Archbishops and Bishops of the "Province of St. Louis" in council assembled, just issued

When quite a child he obstinately refused to learn how to read. And, as he grew up. he went deep into sin. and endeavored to quiet his conscience, if at any time it pricked him, by the vain fancy that his condemnation would be less than that of his companions in wickedness because his knowledge was less than theirs. At length, however conviction of sin seized him his awful guilt in -despising every opportunity of instruction, pressed heavily upon his soul.

A Great Invention—The Patent ^et» ticoat Lifter! It seems that Yankee ingenuity has not yet, by any means, ben exhausted. One of our N. York exchanges gives tbe following interesting description of the very "latest diskivery:"

The latest notion from the land of shoe-pegs and wooden clocks, is an apparatus whereby ladies can manage their skirts while stepping into or out of a carriage, going up or down staijs, and iu the streets, and all the while keep their hands in their pockets. The plan is perfectly simple, and the inventor exhibited at the Chrystal Palace a lay figure with the machine attached, to a large and admiring crowd of both sexes.

There arc four small pulleys attached to the waist, underneath the dress, over which are rove small cords, one, of which is attached, with diaper pins, severally to the front, rear and sides of the skirt, at about tbe height of the knee. The other ends terminate in loops, which are led into the pockets on either side. If a lady wishes to go npstairs, she pulls loop No. 1, in the right pocket, and instantly the dress rises in front, so that the ascent is made with perfect grace. No. 2, in tbe left hand pocket, elevates the rear in the same manner, and all pnllsd at once, lifts all the skirt knee high This manoeuvre is intended for very muddy crossings.

An Unanswerable Argument. The cities of Davenport, Iowa, and Rock Island, Ith, are directly opposite each other on the Upper Mississippi, only about 160 rods apart. Davenport has the largest population. A correspondent of the Davenport (iazeUe gives some facts to prove the workings of the liquor law. In Illinois there is no liquor law. In Iowa,there is a stringent Liquor Law. During the three months ending October 1st, there were 53 committals for drunkedness in Davenport, and 153 in Rock Island. Of the 53 criminals in Davenport, 37 testified they had obtained their liquor in Rock Island! Thus out of the 216 men committed for drunkennes in the cities, only 10 obtained the liquid poison in Davenport, where the Prohibitory Liquor Law was in force. Now this is an unanswera* blc argument in favor of the excellent influence of a proper Prohibitory Law. Here are two cities situated precisely similar— with the same soil and climate and the nature of the population the same—but the one with a far larger population than the other. In the larger city, there were only 53 committals.for drunkedness in three months of these 37 testified they had got their liquor in the other city. And in the latter, were 163 committals for the same offence, $11 of whom got their liquor at Rock Island. In other words 200 men got drnnk in Rock Island, the smaller city, and only 16 in Davenport. Can this argument be answered! The correspondent says:

strangers in either of these

cities, whether friends or enemies of the Piohibitory Law, I have only to request that they spend one hour each, on the front streets of the two cities, and if they do not become complete and thorough converts to the dootrine of Prohibition, no other argument need be used for that purpose."—j\r.

movement declare that the iroment has arrived for European Democracy to constitute itself into a powerful unity, to present itself in face of its enemies, and to act. The fall of Sebastopol is in their eyes the beginning of a general war, the end of whicli must be advantageous to the various populations. "Organize yourselves and' dare!" is the conclusion of the new manifesto.

THK Tony OATII OK 1776,—"I, A 11 do swear to be true to his majesty, King George and to serve him honestly and faithfnlly in defence of his person, crown and dignity, against all his enemies in America, or op posers whatever to keep secrets and to observe and obey the order or my superiors that shall be issued out to mo from timo to time, so help ine God. I, A do swear to keep secret all that you shall say or read to me, and not to reveal the same to blood relations, or any other person whatever, so help ine God." The above is the oath taken by the Tories of the Revolution.— Rushville, (Ind.,) Jacksoniitn,

Xew I'rojcct'to Dinposn of the Pope.

A correspondent of the fcew-Ti urk cru«ndtrj wriiing from Rome, in reference to tho misun-

autograph of the Emperor of France on its face, requests in absolute terms, a total change in the system and organization of the Papal Government it insists in secularizing the administration, to introduce urgent reforms, establish a free press, nnd grant a general amnesty to all political offenders.—Tne Popo asked time to consider upon the matter, but being pressed by the French Extraordinary Envoy answered in a most laconic manner, that he would introduce in his government such reforms which would be consistent with the safety and dignity of the Holy See. This reply not being satisfactory to the foreign diplomatic informed His Holiness that the French Government would be compelled to adopt a summary course and assume the responsibility with the other powers for such a policy. This last sentence fell like a thunderbolt, and Pics IX. was very much affected.

Being in company with several foreign diplomats, all being attached to the Embassies of the Allied Powers, the correspondent heard several remarks made, in regard to the misunderstanding between France and Rome, and among the various topics of conversation, (he most important, was the conclusion that France, England, Sardinia, and 3pain, have secretly come to, oftransfering the "Chair of St. Peter to Jerusalem, thus avoiding forever, in Europe, the continual troubles caused by the temporal power of the Church, And this decision is very general among the more influential personages of Europe. Thus Rome shall lose the Pope, but in exchange will regain her liberty and political splendor, as there is all probability that she will soon become the capital city and seat of government of future Italy. Louis Napoleon was much vexed on hearing that not one of the Prelates at Rome, nor any official of the papal government had been present at the TVXwumsanjj in the Cbnrch of St. Lonis in commemmoration of th« fall of Sevastopol. The Emperor begins to see his great mistake in having reinstated Pios IX, against the wish of the Romans,and to avenge himself of the ingratitude of tbe Pope, seems inclined to destroy his temporal government.

One of the finest passages in Richelieu is the following: Richelieu.—Young man be blithe for note me, from the hour I grasp that packel, think that yonr guardian star rains down fortune on you. ^Francisco.—If I fail?

Richelieu.—Fail 1 fail!! in the bright lexicon of yonth which fate reserves for a most glorious manhood, there is no such word as fail!

Why should young men fail! If he be honest, if he Be honorable, if be be ardent, If he b$ energetic, if he be gifted with mental power, if he be right in soul and strength, he should never fail and if any allating temptation whisper in his ear words that make him turn aside, let him revert to that bright lexicon and never Gail. rt eooo ADVicr.

For the Express.

Mr. Editor: Will you allow me a small Space in your paper, to call the attention of Our "City Dads" to the condition of the sidewalk on National Road street, near the corner of Sixth. The big hole in the ground, the design of which, has been a puzzle to many a passer by, and which ought to have been long since filled up, seems at last to have attracted the attention of the falling lains which have been gradually of late, making thoir way into it. In doing this, however, they have occasioned a wash some two or three feet deep, about half way across the. side-walk, which subjects the limbs, of thbse not fully posted in the "ways of the town," these dark nights, to great hazard and danger.

No longer ago, than last night,, a-com-plaint was made to us by gentleman, who, in passing through the part of the ciiy al&dod to, tumbled into this gully, much,to the damage of a good pair of pants and a tolerably good temper. Like one of the heroes of former times, whose new hat was riddled by the balls of the enemy, his greatest regret seemed to be that it was his clothing instead of his body, that had suffered, as in the latter case, ho thought he could have got a good bill out tho city for damages. And being a stranger, and therefore, not able to procure anything intoxicating of either of the Co. groceries, nnd of course, unable to obtain it eUewhere, it being against the law. to sell, there was something Barnumish in.the utterance of the wish, as no presumption could have arisen against him, of a want of due soberness, as might have hap pened when coffee-houscs flourished nnd before the benificent effects of a prohibitory law wera fully realized in our midst. Tho working of this law has already furnished us with an instance of a fellow's) walking about in tho grass with his breeches rolled up endeavoring to get snake bit.

Let us have this gully tilled up before soma chap in sober security, beaks his leg fcnd swearing the poor gully was the cause—gets some big lawyer to- bring a suit against the city and recover* damage to,tho tune of some thousands of dollars. ECONOMY. %.

information: IVllissier employed a spy which ho kiuw to be employid also by the Russians, and was clever enough to sustain the double game wiihont raising Mipicion in Sevastopol which he went to and from incessantly. This man. instructed by Pellissier, who paid him best,gave Prince Gortschakolf such information as to make him bel'uve that the allies were intending to make two coups, ono on the Tchernava, and on the Redan and the Forts west of this one, so as to capture tho

harbor to the North, and (this was the chief point to be impressed at Russian head-quar-ters) without attempting any thing but a mere demonstration against the Malakoff. GortschakoffTell into the trap, says the letter writer, who is an officer of nigh rank, and afraid lest his line of retreat should be cutoff, massed his forces on the two points believed to be menaced, and left the MalakofT comparatively unguarded. It was at this conjuncture that tho spy reappeared at the French head quarters, and told Pellissierto loose no lime in securing the "Key" of Sevastopol. What truth thero may be in that information I know not but certain it is, that the exceedingly easy way in which the Malakof! has been carried by the French, authorizes the belief that Gortschakoff had been deluded by apnearances.

The Printer.

The night grows late, the hfreets are hushed—the moon beams Heck thcdiserted pavement—and sleep strews its slumbering popies over the inhabitants of the city. All are at rest save the printer, who is busy at his case.

Dreams, lovely, as winged cheruls, hover about the repose of man and maiden visions as pure as first lillies. and beautiful as the matron and the child—but to the printer all is reality, toil and weariness. "T.

How nimbfylnmf cheerfully does he adjust the faithful types, as if he took "no note of time''—as if the duties that are wearing out his life were more a diversion than a laborious avocation. But amid their monotonous discharge, believe us, the printer thinks of home and sweetrest, and sighs within himself for the better lot of which others are possessed. And yet there is no other repose for him, though the night tramps on, and the joctlnd dawn will soon appear.

Why do his motions grow less rapid? why move his fingers in so deliberate and mechanical a way? Whence is the smiles that linger at his lip, like the first sunbeam at the gates of morning? There is a gentle presence at his side—an eye, blue as violets, glancing into his own—an accent, sweet as music, entrancing his car, and reaching his very heart. It is but-a moment—it is only ii reVery— it did not even win him from bis occupation—it only caused his band to falter, not to cease—the printer awakens to his toil again. -k -m

Ye who receive your sunrise favorite, and wander, perhaps listlessly, over its pages, remember that it is tbe fruit of toil which was active and untiring while you were quietly sleeping—that your convenience and comfort are brought with the price of weariness.

There is an "electric chord," which being charged with sympathy, will carry
