Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1851-04-17

New Issues.

This is modest indeed, when with the same breath
he insists that is Democrat who is not for the
repeal of the Fugitive Slave Law and opposed the
compromise measures and in favor Of internal improve
ments by the General Government. Are these not
issues? Last he contended the Wilmot Proviso
part Of the Democratic creed in Indana "-Sate
Sentinel.
Here are three Brown les-and only brown, but
absolutely black. Brown knows, if the lying puppy
knows anything, that advocated the repeal Of
the Fugitive Slave Law-that we asserted that
mans sentiments the subject of slavery had nothing
to do with his Democracy, and that " contend
ed that the Wmot Proviso was part OF the Democrat
ic creed Of Indiana"
We repeat again. that the man who deliberately
makes such accusations-even if he has been member
of COngress-even if he has formed a corrupt and dis
graceful coalition with David Wmot-is nothing more
less than liar and scoundrel. If courteous Ian
guage will stop the lar shall speak of him he
We insert this precious moroccan; that our readers
may know what sort of a character now disgraces the
office of Auditor of State We charged him with being
opposed TO the Fugitive Slave Law; in favor Of the VIII
Proviso and in favor of internal improvements by
the General Government. The two first propositions
proven by reference the columns of his paper,
from the commencement and the latter by his recent
tcle in favor of the og.rolling bill for internal improve
ments which was defeated by the Senate. BY system
of special pleading he now asserts that he in
not in favor of its amendment! And if So what amend

he repcns let him ask forgiveness in the language the

Democrat Now don't think SO, and all the sophis-
try of Auditor Ellis cannot convince Arguments,
he never uses. When pen him up in a with
hard questions, he cuts his way out with language that
would disgrace the lowest sinks of niquy the Five
Points In this kind Of warfare be always gets the ad
vantage of us. Educated in this school, be has repu
tation for low vulgarity which we do not envy, and
which shall never attempt to initiate. Our associa
tions have been with gentlemen and assault howev
vituperatve can make descend to the level of
blackguard. A cowardy whpper-snapper once chal-
lenged Sam. Houston, but the hero of San Jacinto
promptly replied: Z" never fight down bilT"-a good
maxim, and which shall always observe. His
abuse is harmless the hiss of viper In politics. ii
:he best endorsement Democrat have, and in
ais, a passport to good society. We are an old
campaigner and never suffer such small matters and
small things, TO ruille temper. When we first no.
ticcd the assaults of this fellow, knew kind of
enemy had to fight; we knew his skunk-like pro-
pensities, and the weapons Of his warfare. All this
shall not deter us from the duty owe TO the Democ-
racy of Indiana. That duty shall PERFORM and when
occasion requires, shall expose the roenness and
corruptons of the who presdes the finances of
Indiana, and eaters to the morbid appetite of abolition
ism. His private reputation shall never assa re-

There a man. and he had noughi,
And robbers rob him." &c.
The establishment of the Statesman has been Of great
pecuniary advantage to When the Democracy saw
the old and tried organ of the party assaed by new
concern, whose object it tack them the tail
of abOtionism, they rushed to aid and increased
the circulation Of paper twoold, and every OF
these foul attacks is worth least fifty subscribers
