limited States Senator.
From the BrookviEe Democrat, Januarl

From the BrookvfHe Democrat, January 3.
1t is strongly surmised by our Wing friends, that
the present Legislature will adjourn without %electing
a Senator ; if such be the fact, we cannot see the i'm
%propriety of letting the matter 90 before the people.
In 1910 Indiana was decidedly Whiggish her popu
lar vote was convincing proof that her people desired
a trial of what few of the principles were then advo-
Gated, openly. Ever since that period there has been
a : progressive return to Democracy, in this State.
At the late Presidential election, when every Demo-
cratic measure was Thoroughly investigated by an I'M
paralleled e~xertion of the Wing p~artisans, the voice
of Indiana was-give us Democratic men and mea-
Sures. One of the most potent objections that can be
urged, by those opposed to such procedure, is, the next
Legislature may be Democratic. Grant it. To elect
a Wing US. 2elator, at the present time, would be
a fragrant abuse of the trust confded in the Represent
atIves of this State. We know some may contend
that in the event of the Democrats securing a majority
in As, they can then instruct their Senators how they
must act, so far as the will of the mass may seem to
dictate to this frivolous argument, one simple fac
will forever give a q%uietus. 1t is a cardinal feature
in Wing Legislatlon,-practically exemplifed by oul
present Wing u. S. Senator, A. S. White, that " the
will of the constituent shall not palsy the arm of the
Representatives Let the present Legislature, acting
in the capacity of the servants of the people, refer thi
matter to their Legitimate source Of power, and tn,
question can be satisfactorily settled. If they say
Whig-his instructions would be to act Whiggish-
if they choose a Democrat let him carry out Demo
cratic principles.

The Washington Globe, in the course of some re-
marks in answer to an article on the Texas question,
which appeared in the National Intelligencer, says
awe do not doubt that the Hartford convention feder-
alists will cheerfully contribute to extend the dominion
consider it an evil of great magnitude to extend the linn
its of the United States, 10 embrace that rich region, TO
derive and confer blessings. And if this can be accom-
pIished in no ether way, we should not be surprised 10
see the attempt made by insisting on annexation as a
cause for Remembering the Union. In the prosecution
OF such a purpose, IL is not improbable that every thing
calculated 10 provoke alienation between the North and
South will be pressed into service. Federalism will omit
nothing to convince the South that the limits of the Unit
ed States are already too much extended; but will the
South play into the hands of its enemies-the enemies oil
the institutions of the country-by unreasonable exac
tons on its part, and a repulse of that spirit of compro-
mise in which these glorious institutions originated ? We
hope not. From the Executive at present installed in
power, we know not what to anticipate but upon the
President elect-the honest, faithful, fearless representa-.
tive of the republicanism Of the North aud South-the
country may rely for integrity and frmness TO battle al
sinister, selfish inirigues which aim to subserve individu-
al rather than public interests"
The admonition to the South is seasonable and the
more likely to be well received, inasmuch as there is
little probability of the passage of the joint resolution
annexing Texas Immediately and Internationally tc
the Union. The southern papers do not express them
selves with any confidence in regard to the project Of
annexing Texas to the Union at the present session
The Richmond Enquirer, In allusion to this matter
says, 'there is danger yet" and the Washington let
lers in the Charleston papers speak Of the success o.
the measure as not very probable.-N Y. Post.

August, while travelling togetherIin the stage to Brat.

from my memory, until the receipt of your favor.
You will remember l only heard your voice, for it was
dark when we met and when we parted. Had l had
the pleasure of your personal acquaintance, | could
not certaigly have been so ~forgetful. But | remember
distinctly your discussion of the political topics of the
day surprised me by its tone of intelligence and con-
fdence. That you found yourself 10 be correct in
your calculations is very apparent, and though l should
have been more happy to have won the 4" twelve pounds

Death of n Rcprcsc,,s,,,vc:

FWedeePlyr regret to learn ofthe decease Of Capt JARED
DARRow, tbs representative of the district of Hunting
ton, Black ford and Wells counties, who died at the
Palmer House, yesterday, at about noon. The event
was unexpected,a as two days previous, Mr. BARROW was
in his seat at the House, apparently in good health.
But, even in the midst of life we are in death. Mr..
D. was, we believe, a native of New York, and was
a highly respected and useful citizen in this the State
of his adoption.

"Should there be no election, it is thought that Gov.
Whitcomb will resign, let the Gubernatorial robes
fall upon the shoulders of Jesse D. Bright, who will
Immediately appoint his ex-Excellency to the United
States Senate"
How does the above statement Of the Madison Ban
ner, tally with that made by the Indiana Journal, that
the object Of the 1t. Governor was to procure the ap-
pointment of his brother Michael! The fact IS that
both statements are altogether false. But this is the
way in which Wing Roorbacks always endeavor tc
deceive the people.

iyr. Dunn's Deficit.

We learn, and we are glad to learn, that Mr.
Dunn, the late State Treasurer, has discovered an
omission on the books of that Office of a charge,
which ought to have been made against the State, OF
So, 6lO, 00-being the amount lost by fire In the
Treasures Office of Morgan county, and which was
authorized to be RENTED by the Legislature. Mr.
Dunn credited the amount to the Morgan county
Treasurer, but accidentally omitted to charge 1t up to
the Debtor account of the State, as ought to have
been done. This accounts for about half of MIR.
Dunn's apparent deficiency. We hope he will be
equally fortunate in accounting for the remainder.

G-The canaiGe of the Wing press are out in full
cry, because of the mere mention by the State Sentinel
of the fact of a deficit in the accounts of the late
Treasurer of State, and its caution to the Legislature
not to settle the same in a certain manner proposed by
certain wing members thereof. These fellows are
very positive about all the particulars of this CASE
much more so than Mr.. Dunn himself. But it is SIM
ply the dogmatism of Ignorance which makes them
so. They had better learn something about the mat
ter before they prate about it SO noisily. Erbum

Under the head of an "old humbug revived" we

of the German States were proposing to send their
criminals to the United States. We gave some rea-

New YORK, 10th Dec, IS4
HoN. INo. G.. CALHOUN.

HoN. JNo. G. CALHOUN,
Secretary of State, Washington, D. c.,
Sir:-A statement, of which l annex a printed
copy, on the subject of emigration from Germany, IS
travelling the rounds in the American newspapers,
accompanied with editorials and communications more
or less abusive of foreigners in general, and Germans
in particular. The statement purports to come from
an American Consul in Germany, and its extraordlna-
ry. contents certainly deserve attention, if true; at
all events, they are well calculated to strengthen the
growing prejudice against immigrants from Germany.
The German population of this country must consider
itself Interested in the matter, at least as much as the
natives; and if the alleged discoveries of the Consul
List are true, the German Society of New York, of
which | am an officer, will ~cheerfully and, | trust,
effectually, cooperate with the public authorities in
preventing the evil with which this country is said to
be threatened.
But, in the opinion of mary, the statement itself
bears evidence of inaccuracy; and it is even suspect
ed that it never had its source in Germany, but is OF
native origin: and | have, therefore, been requested
respectfully to inquire of you whether Consul Lis,
has made a report to your Department, such as the
annexed newspaper paragraph alleges, and whether
the extract t~herefrom, as published, is correct.
In the hope that you Will favor me with an answer,
| subscribe myself, with great esteem, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,

however, when tho lady exhibited symp,
