The last Indiana State Sentinel publishes q commu-
ncation on the subject of slavery, deOng the creed
of the democracy of Indiana this subject. The
Sentinel publishes it without note or comment, and
thus impliedly endorses the comments of the writer.
We take the following extract from the communica-
tion.-CeatreUiHe Whig, Fe6. l3.
IL the Centreville Wing don't already know it. it
should Immediately learn, what we have often stated
before this, that our rule is TO publish any commune
cation Of public interest, from responsible authors,
whether we agree with them in full, not When
we think it proper TO endorse object. we do 1t in
ar unequivocal manner. We have in time past, pub
lished many communication from wings well as
democrats. which did not agree with, and that
too without note comment" We were willing
to provoke discussion enquiry, satisfied that truth
would be elected, and ultima tely triumph. 1t may
be difficult for a certain kind of whig editor to be-
eve in the existence Of much selfdeninl. honesty
and independence, such rule, invariably adhered
to, would manifest ertheless we have aloays ad-
hered to it.

MILWAUKEE. = In the new city of Milwaukee,
wherein there dwelt, in 1885, but single white man,
there recently received, in day, 81 900 BUSH
els of wheat-alowing 40 bushels to each wagon,
525 wagons we're required to bring this quantity.
There were. also, the same day, IT'S teams loaded
with other produce; and allowing 40 feet for each
team, nave fue miles Of loaded tcagons. coming
into the city in day. The population of the city
is now about 10000. In the year ending July /,

CoNsECRATIoN.-The new building recently finish
ed by the congregation of Christ Church, at Madi-
son, was consecrated Thursday of last week. ac-
cordng the form prescribed by the Episcopal ritual
The clergy officiating were, the RI. Rev. Bishop Up
fold Rev. Dr. Camp of Indianapolis. Rev. NJ. Grlla-
CHER of Coving ton, KY. Rev. j. Craik and Rev. J. c.
Talbot of Louisville, Rev. ]. Martin of New Albany,
and Rev. A. Blake of Cincinnati.
The sermon, by Bishop Upfold was on Chron
xvi. 29-"Worship the Lord in the beauty of holi-
ness'-and was heard with the most profound atien-
ton. the Bishop presented the objects of Christian
worship, the Father, the Son, aud the Holy Ghost
the Tri-une God-who alone to be adored in this
Temple. He reminded the congregation that this
house was not merely to be house of preaching but
also. and eminently, house of ioOrship and while
maintaining strenuousy the indispensable necessity
of sermons for the conversion and edicaOn of men,
he dwet earnestly the danger of erring by making
the worship of God mere preparation for preaching,
or of esteeming prayers and sacraments only ap-
pendages to other duties of the sanctuary.
The Church opened for worship on Wednesday
afternoon, when, after prayers by the Rector, SER
mon on Proverbs iii. 17-"Wisdom's ways are ways
of pleasan,ness"-was delivered by the Rev. Dr.
Camp, of Indianapolis.
The Madison Courier, from which we derive the
foregoing says
We most cordially congratulate-not only the con-
gregaiion especially interested, but whole COM
munity-on the successful completion of an enter
prise which all must acknowledge has given to
city of its most elegant architectural ornaments.
Indeed, we hazard nothing in saying, that few cities

The Result.
NJ

The Springfield Post in commenting upon
the result of the late election in Massachu-
sets, says
The great question involved in the cleo
ton has been settled in the right way. The
people have declared i'm favor of reform in
The management of state affairs. They have
decided that the long list of whig abuses
shall be removed, and that stop shall be
put to one-sided and unjust legislation. They
have declared in favor of impartial laws, and
of introducing into Massachusetts the reforms
already established in other states, and de-
manded by every consideration Of right and
Justice This decision of the people will be
carried out. We believe the next legislature
will do something for the good OF the people
that il will make laws for their advantage,
not for be benefit of few
This result is such as was TO have been
expected from the action Of an intelligent
people. The democrats went into the can
vass boldly avowlng the measures they pro-
posed to carry out. They challenged ohjec-
ton to their propositions and no objection
could be made. The wings, overbearing
and insolent from their long possession and
abuse Of power, attempted to drive the peo-
pie into the support of wrongs they had not
the hardihood TO defend openly, and they
have now found their mistake. The reign
of exc!usveness in Massachusetts is over?-
We are TO have new and better order Of
things here.
The democrats of Massachusetts will be
well represented in the next legsatuIe.-
We shall have there able and jealous advo-

OF all parties want 10 see carried our. Fred.

and in the house Caleb Gushing, Wilkinson,

Gratis, will see that these questions between
arslocracy and the people are decided right.
We hope to see the sword of reform run TO
the hilt in and through the rotton old whig
abuses that disgrace the state and defraud
the people.
1t has been by means of these old abuses
that federalism has controlled the state So
long. Without that aid it will be buried
deep. We expect much substantial good

they know that the law is just and honest-adop-
