The Indiana Journal

Of the 18th inst brings the sautatory address of
its new editor, JOHN D. DEFREEs, Esq. The address
sefis in good taste, bearing evidence of much labor
and reflection, and if lived up to- would place that
sheet elevated ground. After perusal of it, we
expected to find the balance of the paper conforming
to the expressed declarations OF its leader but we
confess ourselves disappointed. We shall not, at
this early date especially columns are crowded.

contained in the very first number. But we must be
permitted to say that he will find himself much stron-
ger alone than in getting great Lights to revive
old, exploded, and stale humbugs, in language unbe-
coming 1t must not be considered that because the
people of Indiana have refused to elect certain per-
to high Office, that they be fooled by retera-
ton of charges which they know to be founded in
ror-no, hanlbug in the face and eyes of the de-
clarations of the editor himself We advise him to
keep his counsel write his own articles-and
fcertan would be great have such cacoehes Scri
6endi, let them do it over their signatures.
We have only time or space to say, that the last
Journal contains several articles which will probably
require notice at an carly convenience

In addition to the great number of petitions for the
same object, mentioned by us heretofore, we have
seen lately received by the Governor, signed by
four hundred and eighy-two ladies', requesting par
don for the Rev. R. Weinzephin, the Catholic priest
on account of their expressed convictions of his in
nocence of the offence imputed TO him. and for which
he had been confined in the State Prison.
This unusually large petition, and that from ladies
too, who in their language, reluctantly quit the
quiet sphere of family concerns to raise our united
voices for a pardon, contains among others, the
names of nearly tloo hundred (I93) who afix their
signatures being 'not catholics and it is entitled

charged to have been committed and that from their
residence and that accurate perception of character
which distinguishes the sex, they have had superior
opportunities of knowing the parties and witnesses,
and of forming correct judgment of the whole mat

The propriety and justice of the pardon which had

our minds conclusively proved by this petition.

MR.. FOLKS INAUGU-
RAJ ADDRESS.

The Inaugural Is, in
composition and tone, a
decidedly good document.
The general spirit of it
we like. Even in details
there is little we find fault
with.
The first paragraph we
turned to was that rclat-
ing to the TARIFF. On
that point Mr.. Polk quotes
from his former letters and
documents, and adds TO
them some other declara-
tiOns of the same kind.
There are many generali-
ties, to which every man
of all parties will give his
assent. On the whole, we
infer, that Mr.. Polk has
not, for his own part, any
intention of aiding in the
disturbance of the present
Tariff. What is said about
TEXAS is just about what
might be expected. In re-
lation to the Oregon, and
the extension of Territory,
Mr.. Polk speaks our own
sentiments.
