CoNs1srENcY.-Is it according to the
rules OF consistency, for men protesting
to love the principles ola party, to avow
their determination to use their endeavors
to defeat their party, because the men of
their own choice were not nominated.
This is exactly the position of some of our
"Mass Meeting" friends. 1t has been
frequently stated by some ofthe most busy
among them, since the nomination, that
before any ofthe regular nominees should
be elected, the wings should have the
offices. What love for principle does
this display Will the people submit to
be Influenced By such spirit? We be.
lieve that they possess too much disinter-
rested patriotism to be governed by such
selfish motives.

In TIME FOR THE "REscuE!"-
"True Democrat" o. a vhig paper just
started in this place, takes strong grounds
in opposition the convention and favors
the "mass meeting" This is what might
have been expected. The object is the
defeat ofthe democratic party-hence the
convention is stigmatized as "loathsome"
& as an exhibition of'political rotteness.' -
But will democrats be blinded by such pre-
fences, when the object is so plainly visi-
BILE. The wings apprehend the greatest
danger from the nominees ofthe conven.
ton, and if they by any means can
cause democrats to vote the other ticket
in sufficient numbers to enable them to
elect their candidates, their ends will be
accomplished.

The above communication appears in the LAST
JefTersouian aud was written BY our oil ana
teemed friend David Hoover, Esq. We read il
with the same pleasure that we would experi-
encc on meeting al old acquaintance. I,sonnds
familiar, AMI we are fond of things we have
known in years gone by. We have ewhre
heard Of an old man who had for fifty years lived
with wife remarkable for her loquacity. She
scoldeI BY rotc. She finally died, and left the
old man ..soitarv and alone" in tha world. He
rniscrahy lonesome; and was often heard 10
cxclain: ..If could only hear the dear old wife
scold again would be happy" We have SO
long been accustomed to the scoldng and cen
sure Of our old friend. for we DO respect him,
that the few months which have transpireI with
out seeing any OF his garruhty, began 70
feel lonesome. We feel grateful that he
has not forgotten us, and we hope he may live
many years to indulge that disposition which
appears to afford him much pleasure. May
he live to a ripe old age, and may he never
want breath to find fault with our friend Smith
and our humble self
Our OLD friend finds fult with our vote for
the Whitewater Canal loan bill, aud ..donaton
to repair the mills at IndiannPolis.' As to the
former charge we have only to say that we act
Cd we thought our duty TO our constituents in
Wave county, and the interests of the State de-
Inan1ed We thins still; but peTh aPs VIC
shouli have consulted friend Hoover before
giving the vote. As to the latter charge we are
a little surprised. For the last eight
wears we have seldom heard Of David Hoover be-
ing il town, without al the time bearing
that he was denouncing Mr. Smith for taking a
certain soap factory in payment Of u debt due
the State Now had the State refused to repair
the Canal at indianapolis, she certainly would
have been compelled TO buy half dozen
mills and we do not know but there is soap
factory the same work. He certainly would
not have the State again engage in the soap bus
mess The judiciary committees Of the House
and of the Senate, both reported that the leases
Of the water power on that canal were 50 drawn
up that the State was either boun to repair tn q,
canal AT expense of some So 900, or pny 70,
sundry mills SC. at their COSTA not less
than $4,000. But his Excellency the Cover
nor regardless of the acts of the peoples repre-
appropriated 5000 for the purpose of repair
ing said canal. and has authorized the Superin-
;endent to repair il under old law, at un-
limited expense. 1t said that tie appro-
priated by the legislature was sufficient 70 repai,
the canal, but Gov. Whitcomb deeming it mad
equate has authorized the repairs made by funds
from the State Treasury without regard to the
amount. This act suppose meets the appro-
baton of our highly esteemed friend Hoover.

Friend Elitor:-I have concluded thr on gin
the medium OF your paper, TO say word in JUS
tifcaton Of the course pursued by cur members
who have Just returned from indianapolis. /
find the people of this city are very we'll
pleased with the fifty thousand dollars app-oPr-
ated TO patch mp the White Water canal, and tho
fifteen THOUSAND donated to repair the mills at
indianapolis 1t does appear 10 that when
We cast our votes knowing wha, men have dune
ana wha, they will probably again do we en-
dorse their votes; and If blame attaches any
where, it should be to ourselves. 1t Is well
known tina, Bradbury voted for our ruinoas sys-
tenn, and tina, Holloway always avowed himself
a system man up the hub; tina, even .eiassifi-
cation only another term for notification"
l think they acted very consistent, and.
pay full proportion of taxes, only rcgre;
that they did not give Monde nhall. Brghtwell &
others, few THOUSAND dollars of the peoples
money TO repair their breaches. The people eff
this city are the last men on earth who ought 10
complain, US il IS IN accordance with what they
have alyy avs done. When Dave Wallace made
his forty million hen and chicken speech they
almost shoute1 glory, AMI wen; for him will, a
perfect rush. When Holloway, after voting for
the laws making blue pup receivable for canal
toll, and then Informed us that it was loco
measure 10 defraud the State, i, was thought BY
his friends far from being ridiculous, tina, it
was very subli:nc; ani | am not certain but II
VIII yet send him 10 Congress. In fact 10 be i
IDENTIFIED with our glorious system has been the
passport to ofice. Gale Smith wouil never have
been though, of for Congress had he not been u
ring leader in our rum. His purchasing the soap
factory for us pat the cap shcaf. The same
principle vii! apply 10 Holloway. lie always
advocated the system; ana the manner III which
he imposes upon his readers IS well known.
In conclusion, let me advise every person who
wishes come before the nominating conyen-
ton, the first Monlay in April next, TO be
snre that he has all times acted with those who
have bro't about car rain, ana there is mistake
OF his election On the other hand, lot every
person, who feels conscious that he has always
acted correctly on thls subject, stand back lit
