To the Democratic Electors Of the Fifth Con-
gressional District.

gressiOnal District.
Among Others have been named one Of the candi-
dates for the Democratic nomination and election to the
next Congress.
So far the newspapers of indianapolis
cd my name has been mentioned without any inerer-
ence on my part. But as my democratic friends oi
Centre and Washington townships in convention assem-
bled, have declared be their first choice and
other townships of Marion county have expressed some
degree of confidence in my favor, ] now deem it my
duty say, that if shall receive the nomination by the
District Convention, and shall be elected by the people
will endeavor to the Democratic party and the
whole people, honestly and faithfully.
In attempting to do this, should try to feel and act
think every ndianian should do, who is devoted to
the Just principles and just policy regardless o
sectional interests preudces and ever having in view
the maintenance and integrity OF the Constitution Of the
Union in full force and according the expostions o
Jefferson and Jackson
As guaranty for the fulfment Of this pledge on my
part refer you TO my past Fer the past twelve
years-while editor Of the South Western Sentinel
at Evansville; joint editor of the Wabash Enquirer at
Terre Haute and OF the State Sentinel from lS4l tc
1S50-a the people have been witnesses OF this. My
course as member of the Constitutional Convention
should also be familiar them And tree is known
by its fruit so should mans faith be judged by his
works.
Whatever may be the decision Of the people in regard
to the nomination in question, not word of complaint
will be uttered by me but shall rejoice if they can find
candidate able serve them better and more efficient
ly. Respectfully,
Your fellow citizen.

G5- The Auditor has been to Madison-had full and
free conference with his friend Garbergot free ticket
to Jenny Lnds Concert through the inerPoston of the
man wbo last December told him to dof his hypocrt
cal garb, and to come manully against the Democ
racy; who compared him the viper that had stung
his benelactor; who charged him with being friend in
name and a foe in deed These worthless made friends
and agreed to merge all minor difficulties in the great
question of hostility to the Sentinel The Doctor re-
turns, copies largely from Garber among the rest he
presents this prominent sentence:
The Wing President and cabinet are as fully commit
ted to the Fugitive Law the members Of the Senates
Committee of Thirteen; the Banner has TO and lCU like
It. The publication by authority of the mail lettings in
the Banner has had the desired so1eRiRg effect. The
Browns and the Banner have the affirmative of this
question: and whenever they choose to open the discus
sion in favor of the details of the Fugitive Slave Law
separate and apart from the compromise questions, and
against the right of petition for redress OF grievances
will follow in the negative. Come now. Brown, with
your Wing ally will meet you, and discuss this issue
until your owners silence you.
Now we have said that we desire no further contro-
versy with the editor of the Madison Courier We do
believe that he desires open the discussion the
merits of the fugitive slave law. But he has given
the challenge, say let him point ont the objections
to this law, and will meet them. We are for the law
as is Why did Mr. CARRIER make this question in
the Convention last Saturday when the resolutions
we copy to day, under discussion! In conclusion
ask Mr.. CARRIER question, which if be is hon.
est man, he will answer. He says, tive will discuss
this issue with you until your silence you" Now
Mr. Garber if you that we are acting under the
influence of any one, let the public know his name We
know something about influences too which we have no
desire to name, and hope you will not by your
tinued assaults, compel us to tell the whole story.
