YANKEE Ice IN ENGLAND.-Wllis, in one of his
letters recently written from London has the following
paragraph about Yankee ice, &C.:
"The most refreshing and newest wonder of Lon

innocent Massachusetts lake that, year two ago.

(How suddenly we do sometimes become famous, to

to take cut block, crowd collects and there is
limit to cOckney admiration of it. Something of the
kind was wanted from our country, by the way, to
show that nature, at least, had not 80 repudated"
But what they have done, hitherto ithou ice, seems
natural enough to ask | Just remember that we
always drank tepid water in the summer time in
London, and that the hook and champagne had never
the recuperatng twang that delights the dry throat
on the Polk side of the Atlantic. Now-when the
hook has passed round after the soup-there is gen.
eral exclamation and discussion of the new luxury
and the conversation commonly passes from that to
"juleps" and 'sherry cobblers," which are mystic

Accounts from Glasgow state that the first cargo
of this article imported into Scotland, is being
discharged from the brigantne Acton, of New York,

Our Democratic friends in Indiana, have covered
themselves with glory. This. noble young State,
which gave a majority of l3, 900 for Harrison In
lS40 has taken her stand in the Democratic ranks,
as permanent Democratic State. When she threw
off her garb of Federalism In 1913, by electlng Mr.
Whitcomb Governor, IT was supposed by that party,
that it merely temporary defeat, but the success
sion of Democratic victories which have followed that
election the casting of her vote for James X. Polk
and confirming it by sending eight members of Con-
gress of this election to sustain his admin
stration gives us the fullest confidence that she is
permanently enrolled under the Democratic banner ;
her Legislature, two Democratic United States Sena-
tors, and eight members of Congress, she is fully
armed and equipped to give the Democratic admins
tration vigorous and energetic support Success to
this growing giant of the West.-Ohio Statesman.

mocracy of the Hoosier State Another glorious de-
and laboring men have triumphed, they have fought
the battle of honesty and good faith, and gloriousy
have they won One more such a skinning of Coons

become extinct WABASH, H., Democrat.
