He was formerly employed tannery in this city and

The Indiana Journal and Gov. Wright.

John d Defrees still reterates his charges against
Governor Wright. In the Journal of Thursday morning
the Governor is denounced 'a mere pretender" "a
hobby "slanderer Of Henry Clay" and the editor
says he prove any other charge that he made
We have no doubt but that he could prove that Joseph
A Wright was a highway robber, assassin, or a
traitor There are willing witnesses enough who will
certify to the truth of any charge Defrees in his malice
may invent. To show the mean and low spirit which
prompts this man, Derees, in his hatred of the Gov
ernor, we copy a single paragraph from his article
Sometime since the 'Sentirel" said that We had
charged him with being hypocrite. We never made
that charge II invented by the Sentinel in the hope
Of producing sympathy in behalf OF its candidate. We
never expressed views in relation to fact ap
parent and upon which there exists difference ol
opinion"
Now, what is that but expressing his opinonf Jos.
A. Wright is a member in good standing in the Metho'
dist Church That he hypocrite, the Journal says
sis fact apparent, and upon rhich there erists no
difference of opinonv That is Mr.. Defreess judgment.
Those who have known Governor Wright long and nti-
matsly think differently He has been ridiculed because
he attends Church, Sabbath Schools and prayer meet
ines We knew Governor Wright well when member
of Congress- and can testify that he of the few
that did not forget his religion when he reached WASH
ineton These charges, however, have not made many
votes for Mr. McCarty the returns very clearly show
If Mr. McCarty falls behind the Wing strength in the
State he easily find the man that produced the re-
suit He point to John D. Defrees and say as Ma
than did to David, ''thou art the man. Under the ad
mnstrationof the Indiana Journal the Wing party has
grown "small by degrees and beautifully ess; and if
the editor pursues his present adcious course for few
years more, Whiggery will be an obsolete idea' in
Indiana.

Postage stamn Enxelones.

We understand that the Postmaster General has &C.
cepted the proposal of Mr. George F. Nesbitt of New
York, to furnish the Department with the Post Stamp
Envelopes authorized by the the act Of the last
OF Congress. These convenient little wrappers will
consist of three sizes-Note Letter, aud Official The
denominations will be three, SIR and tlceatyo cents
the latter intended for foreign correspondence They
will be sellseaing, and bear stamp similar in style
the English stamped envelope and are expected to be
in all respects equal thereto.
As the dies yet to be prepared, and the paper
be manufactured exclusively for this important purpose,
is probable that the envelopes will be put in circu
aton before the first of January next but every exer
tion will be made to have them Ite

the result of the State election don't surprise him half
as much as the circumstance of having his ''humbe

is surprising indeed that the Irishman should have
called for the whisky, after the election. If It had been
the Sunday before there would have been nothing
strange in the incident David then loved the rich

SATURDAY MORNING, OCTOBER sa, 1852.
To the Democracy of Indiana.

The following is the secret circular issued by John
D. Derees, editor Of the Indiana State Journal, and
chairman Of the Whig State Central Committee. As
chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee
have thought t due to the Democratic party pub
ish this circular entire that they may be fully advised
of the desperate means the Wings will employ to
ry the State for Gen. Scott. Here is the address.
Read it:
INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. II, 1852.
GESrLKMEs:-We think the official returns will show
that Wright's majority is not twelve thousand.
This unexpected majority was occasoned by the great
ly increased foreign vote, whom the Locofooos have
succeeded in prejudicing against as.
In many counties where the Wings have long been
in the minority, local candidates have made no effort
for the State ticket in the hope Of securing Locooco
support for themselves Wright, through influences
many votes in every neighborhood great number of
illegal votes given, which be excluded next
month BY the proper vigilance at the polls,
Although the majority is greater than expected
it is no less our duty to make every possible effort to
overcome it, 1t may be DONE Contributing much
toward that object is the following plan:
Send two active Wings into each township to make
arrangements with the leading Wings in those town
ships to have every who will support Scott at the
polls. In every neghborhood may be found those who
voted for the Locofoco ticket at the recent election,
that be induced to vote for Scott Let those most
likely possess influence them, exercise it, Such
persons might be furnished with tickets befor the day Of
election, that they could their preference unaw
ed by party leaders at the polls. II would be good
plan for those canvassng the townships to leave tickets
every house, there many that would secretly
vote for Gen. Scott.
Our opponents, feeling the large majority
received by Governor Wright, will not make the
esr they did at the recent election. There is nothing
about the character of their candidate TO induce them
rally warmly to his support
Let us appeal to you to aid in making one more
effort redeem State from the of Locofoco
ism and it is not impossible that shall succeed.
Our advces from New York are of the most confident
character 1t will for Scott beyond all reasonable
doubt.
Our opponents the recent elections in Ohio
and Pennsylvania Their maores there do not exceed
from six eight thousand. The full vote was not out
by over thirty thousand. Ii will be out in November.
Our friends in those States that they will
tainy carry them for Scott, AID do not doubt it.
We believe Gen. Scott will be elected, even should he
get the of this Stateyet there is not true
Whig in it that would glory in giving it to him. Go
to work, then conure you, and cease not until the
last ballot is cast on the first Tuesday in November and
if defeated shall all have the proud satisfaction of
having performed our dHty.
