-. mere. intended for effect abroad, that the nom
;oanon Of Mr.. Bradley IS not acceptable TO the
Wigs Of Northern Indiana. This 10 the merest
,,,,snce in the world. No man stands higher
ware he is known. for s,reigh, forward integrity,
,ban does Mr. Bradley. The esteem in which he
/, held, is not based upon the ephemeral regard
N which The demagogne-,he popularity hunter,
IL heid-whIch leads a few retauers and hangers
on 10 clamor loudly in his behalf and make arro-
CANT pretensions IN his favor. HIS qualities are
those Of a good add a substantial ciilZen-of one
who in the sphere in which he is called to ACT, no
matter what il NAV be, seeks only 10 know his
dutv and then faithfully and fearlessy to perform
that duty No man but will esteem him higher
for this. He is above that man who lawns and
hatters only to deceIve-who with the PRIDE Of
Lucifer in his heart, assumes a humility sicken-
ing 10 the man Of sturdy independence. He
would never sacrifice WIN, he honestly believed

men. 10 this there IS true greatness. lie Is just
such a man as Indiana needs IN her councils
He has that incorporating manliness OF spirit
which truckles not, nor is diverted from Its pur-
weakness and wick edness are constantly devising.
The Wings OF tho North, will cheerfully do their
duty. They have time and again, carried their
flag into the very centre Of the enemies forces,
and they will do with no less vigor now, when
the name Of one Of their number is blazoned up
on its folds.
The Wing voice Of the North will be clear and
strong. BIGGER and BRADLEY, will receive,

cursed with race OF most unmitgated dema-
gogues. II them who brought the State into
trouble. The great evils under which we labor,

the only aim of many members, is TO secure a
return 10 their seats, without regard 10 any other
