To the Editors Of the Indiana State Sentind.-I
see with surprise the extraordinary doctrine advanced
In certain quarters, that holding an office
should be elected to the United States Senate this
winter Such doctrine would at once ostracise our
best men, and would in time place Offices Of and
responsibility IN the hands of second rate men, The
presumption is that the first order of talent has been
discovered by the people and called into notice not,
1t don't speak much for their sagaeiy. Besides the
best policy is promotion when il is merited-a regular
system of apprenticeship. Al great men have
reached their highest rewards in that way.
In making selection of an individual to represent
Indiana in the U. s. Senate, should look around
US and choose the who is first in point of talent
always being certain tLat his democracy is unques-
tonable) whether that individual happens to hold an
Office or not. Are Gov Whitcomb Robert Dale Ow-
en-, 1t. Gov. Bright, Judge Chamberlain, &C. &c, any
the worse men, or less trust worthy democrats, be-
cause at this time they happen to fill responsible Of
fees! Away with such monstrous doctrine We
have many, very many good men and true, noble
hearted republicans, who have from the ranks worked
their way up and occupy places of trust Must these
men be told that because they are officers that the
people have no further for their services! Or
that they must never expect TO be called to any other
situation than the ones they hold, until they
have again placed themselves in the ranks (!
feel sure that the democracy will never recognize
this as one of its articles of faith Too many of the
fathers of party have been exempfcatons of the
happy results of the system of promotion. Old Hick-
ory worked his way up from member of the Tennes-
see Legislature to the Presidency. Thomas Jefferson
occupied great many subordinate Offices, and the
people discovered bis great talents they as constantly
promoted him. until he reached the Presidential chair
Let as be just Let not say TO the leaders of our
party although you hare toiled and sweat for the
sacred of democratic principles, thus far shalt
60 and no farther"
great many things might be said this subject,
but trust that it is unnecessary. Having been born

BURNING Brick WITH Coal. The editor OF
the Norristown (Pa.) Herald last week witness
sed the new process of burning brick, invented
by Joel w. Andrews of that borough. The
process is burning with anthracite coal with an
artificial blast. The most perfect command OF
the heat is obtained by valves in the various
Hues, increasing or diminishing the heat, or d.
rectng it to any part of the kiln at pleasure
The time occupied in burning kiln is about
two-thirds less than by the usual method, and
the inventor states that the whole expense of
burning is reduced in a corresponding ratio.

Kent on her downward passage, below Point

the London, on Tuesday, the 18th inst, and
the result was the loss of the former boat and
we regret to add several lives. Every effort
was made by the London to save the passcn-
gers. All the officers and hands, and 10 pas
sengers, including 10 children, were saved
Among those lost are named Rev. James L.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN BosToN-LoSs of Life!
On Friday night fire broke out at Boston i'll
the stables of Lucus Dootte, attached to the
City Tavern, which were soon in flames; not
however, before all the horses, 60 or 10 in num-
Der, as well as several carriages and other We
hicles, were rescued. The City Tavern and
the Brattle street Church were somewhat injur-
ed. The Evening Traveller, of Saturday,
says
The most distressing circumstance attending
this fire was the loss of two lives, those OF Mr..
Emerson Thompson, a member of Engine Com
pang No 8, and VIM. Roustone, member OF
No. I, of CharIestown. They were dragging
Il hose carriage through Brattle Square, and
when opposite the wall Of the stable, it fell up
on them, crushing them both and killing them
instantly. It, was also reported that another
young man from Charestown, named Howard,
was killed, but we are happy to lean that the
rumor was unfUunded. MIR, Emerson was a
young unmarried man, a carpenter by trade,
belonging to Maine; and Roulstonc a sailmakeI,
who worked in the Navy Yard at Charlestown,
and was the sole stay of widowed mother
MIR. Gibson, also of Charlestown, was much
hurt Besides these we have heard of the fol-
lowing persons who were more or less burned

John b. Evans, printer i'll the Sun office, burn
ed about the face, throat and hands, but not
very seriously; Mr.. Pope, driver of the Marlbo-
rough stage, also had his hands and face con-
siderably scorched. There are also said to be
several other persons slightly burned, but no
one else that we have heard of was much injur-
ed. The stables were the property of the
Fifty Associates" and were insured at the Ma
tional Office for $4,000. Mr.. Doolittle's loss in
stock, &C., is estimated at about $4,000, on
which there is no insurance.
