Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1845-04-24

By the announcements copied below it will be seen
that Blair g. Rves have transferred their interest as
Editors and Propretors of the Globe newspaper, to
Messrs Richie & Heiss. Mr.. Richie has for many
years as is well known been the editor OF the Rich
mond Enquirer and his ability evinced therein viii
be sufficient guaranty of the character of the Globe
under his charge. Mr. Heiss has heretofore been
connected with the Nashville Union, and is spoken
of highly by those who know him best.
Ably as their places viii no doubt be filed, we part
with Messrs Blair and Rives with regret They
have conducted the Glote with great ability and to
the general satisfaction of the Democratic party and
when it is remembered how difficult it is while ad
vocating general principles to avoid giving offence
to those whose opinions are BIASED or modified by
locality or selfish interest but whose aid IS required
to sustain those principles, ordinary success in the
performance of the task is evidence of no slight
merit. 1t is much harder task to give complete
satisfaction to successful party, in the station of
chief editorial organ, than in any other. But the
Editors of the Globe may review their past abors Of
fifteen years DURATION with just pride and satsfac-
ton. They have displeased some on account of mi
nor differences of opinion and Others, no doubt whose
selfish and dishonest schemes they have infexibly
fused to aid at the sacrifice of principle. The people
little dream how often influential editors virtue is
assailed in this way. How many men would have
willingly sacrificed political integrity to the immense
brides unsuccessfully offered by Daniel Webster to
purchase the support of the Globe to the aministra-
ton of which he formed conspicuous part This is
but one of probably very many similar instances !;
and this we have doubt, too, is of the causes
of that personal hostility to the editors Of the Globe,
so freely expressed by of doubtful political integ
ry BY such hostility of the greatest integrity
may ultimately be overthrown. Fortunately, such
has not been the fate of Blair and Rives. They have
merted and received the confidence of the great ma
jority of the Democratic party, and retire with honor
May their successors be as fortunate
From The Globe Of April Ia
The Globe Office and Its appurtenances, Gin virtue
of the agreement which we annex for the informa-
ton of Its subscribers) passed, Saturday last, In
to the hands of Messrs Richie g. Heiss The Globe
had it origin in the will of Gen. Jackson, and to
him and to Mr.. Van Buren, and to their political
friends the success which has attended IL through IF
teen years of conflict closed by the late triumph Of
the democracy which efaced the disaster of 1910. II
has been the misfortune of the Globe, in sustaining
the strong administration of General Jackson-the
uncon1promising administration of Mr.. Van Buren,
and in opposing the abuses of Mr.. Tyer's admins
tration, to make enemies of who united with the
democracy in its last struggle. The interest of the
cause requires that all who contributed to the election
of the present Chief Magistrate should continue to
give their support It is the good fortune of the con-
ductor of the official organ not to have offended
any portion of those whose adhesion to the party
necessary to its safety and success. We have un-
bounded confidence in the ability, integrity, and pat
riotism of the who Is to preside the
Enlistment, and shall consider ourselves amply com
pensated for the sacrifice we are now called on t.
make, if anticipations of the continued
the democracy shall be realized by the official jour
nal, under Its new name and new auspices. We can
not express gratitude to the Democracy, to which
we owe every thing. F. p. BLAIR.
