 party in The State o New York can keep !, alive beyond Inc autumnal elections. Bar Indiana has sivsn i '' the uhkindeSt ctt of all' Mr. Juhan
 was one of the corpofais guard of free Sotlers m ! the last Congress from Indiana. He was anxious to De re elected, but defeated Nor was thls the worst of the matter for hun. Finding free
 Sot!ism unpopular he apostatised from hiS free- Stl associates and made slgosoBs retreat. but IS finally ermsted u remain al home. \ com
 nnltee Of bls dlstnet wrote him q letter, on the eee ui bts election, propoundng questions 10
 what wond be hts course lf an attempt shoJld be
 made 10 repeat the fugitive .sla.e law and other .k.ndred measures. In his reply he told them sub stantaly that he was tired Of agitation. and if he
 were called on for direct YOte he should do what
 was right. But they were not at all di&posed 10 allow hun thus to dodge the question, and, after
 having sbown a disposition to apasIalize from hlS free soil partizans he suffered d defeat.
 Among the celebrated RoaiaAI knperors was his nameSake Julian, ' the ..pos}ate." The Etnpe- or Julian became renegade 10 the faith of his early years and his name goes down fo posierty as ar s'apostate." Gibbon furnishes a very inter esttng history of his hfe, to winch we would fer the x-meinber of Congress from Indiana for inf0r

 was oripnaliy engaged m bad cause. but be eauSe he had not the courage i0 stand by his own y pafiisanS. Sach should ever be the fate oi time serving politicians.
 Bat we have another lneonteStale sign i'll ln- diana The people there have lately adopted a ! new constitution. Among other prominent proslS ions the very important one of forever exciu ding free uegTors from Indiana. This article Of
