The Democracy Of Indiana must remember that it
is insufficient 10 gain great victories, and take no
means to secure them good general viii not allow
his soldiers to sleep upon their arms in the flushed

last great victory must be secured and this end
we eXhort the Democracy of Indiana to be sup and
doing" Of Our own knowledge, we assure them that
we shall have not only the common home enemy to
contend WITH but their cohorts TO be strengthened
by Hessian legions hired by the money robbed of
own people. The latter will be poured out with an
unSparing hand, TO again throw our State into the
hands of the plunderers of her means and integrity
We speak by the book
The people of the country have elected President
Beyond doubt one branch Of Congress win be of a
complexion TO operate with the President. Ii now
lays with the people of Indian assist in having
the other branch of the political caste, that all
branches OF our government may operate in unison.
We have all and felt the evils arising from diff
terent state of things and we have ii in power
TO state that know Of large number Of our oppo-
nents who have declared their desire the whole
administration act together While we admire these
professions, we must be lrGry. Promises made are
too often violated; and while those of lS40 whose

afterwards made, viz: "A promise made whilein du
rance IS void" We must then deperd on our oHn
strength, and, thank fortune, have it.
/ Among other issues to be decided at the next Au-
\ gust ELECTION, we may mention
1st, The election Of United States Senator in the
place of A. s. White, whose term expired on the Sd
of the present month. Shall the State have voice
In the T. s. Senate by eleciing democrat to with

against the administration This matter viii be
treated at length IN the Coon Skinner.
I'd. Shall the next Legislature, by having a wing
majority be enabled to extend to tie Bank power to
issue shinpasers of small denominations during the
continuance of its charter Or shall we have mix
ed currency of gold, silver, and So notes We can
prove that the Bank makes more out of the people by
those shinplas:ers than by any other portion Of her
her circulation.
3d. Supreme Judges are to be elected, and all
aveTse TO e Offices, must be that they only
be abolished by electing Democratic Legislature.
While would intimate nothing against either the
