Good for Indiana,

From the Indianapolis papers learn, that the Con-
stitutonal Convention of the ourishng State of Indiana
has, by considerable majority, made provion rhch
prohibits all free negroes and mulaoes from settling in
that state hereafter The Consultation also provides that
all contracts made with such persons shall be null and
roid and that any one employing them, encouraging
them to remain in the State shall be liable fine OF
from ten 10 IRE hundred dollars, which lines shall be APP
piled towards the colonization of the negroes already
there.
This article in the Organic law has yet to be submit
ted to separate of the people; and do most
earnestly hope II will meet affirmative response
the polls. II is about the only plan by which the people
oil the free state generally rid themselves oil
the of free negro population, and Indiana
friends will long regret their failure to confirm by their
votes, provision of such vital Importance their u-
prosperity and welfare in the the question
shall be lost, when it is submitted to the sovereign
peope.-Ky Flag.
