pThe "black law" Of Indiana repealed at the
late session of the Legislature of that State. 1t was
done Internationally by the passage Of general repeal
ing law, repeating all laws Of the State not enacted at
the same session. with certain exceptions The blacks
the same footing with the whites as to
giving testimony, and in certain other respects Some
Of the Indiana papers think the old laws will be reenact
ed at the next session.-Ohio State Journal.
The above paragraph, which has been going the
rounds Of the Wing press for time is calculated to
convey erroneous impression, which feel bound to
correct. No such law is in force The omission to
enact this law, which has always been statute
book, we learn happened in this The revising
committee omitted place it in the act organizing the
courts, under the impression that the commissioners
would place in the practice This the commissioners
did do and the omission escaped the notice of the
Legislature. But it can have practical effect. The
laws will not be Published until about the first Of Janu-
airy next, when the legislature will be in session The
omission will then be Immediately supplied, by posi-.
tive enactment which under the necessity clause in the
constitution, can 60 in force Immediately No one we
believe, charges the omission intentional The whole
matter occurred have stated. The law is not in
force, and injury will occur until the legislature
can have time to enact a law to the case

I shouldn't have laughed at ALL"
This is good advice and the story is in point. If the

The Wings Of Marion county, Saturday last, nOmi

Wing leaders endeavored set Wing trap to catch
German Democrats. We make no objection to Mr.

WISE learned, and good man; but he is a partizan
Whig-always votes with the Whigs-and now is to be
used by them to try and defeat the Democratic ticket
German has all the rights of an American citizen
and such should stand upon the same ground as an
American ctizen-he having first complied with the
legal requirements of the naturalization and suffrage
laws; therefore acknowledge fully that Mr. Bonge
legally and correctly entitled to fill any Office which
the people may confer upon him What we do object to
the attempt Of the Wings make German Democrat.
vote for a German Wing. 1t is really saving to the
German Democrats you have no principles that are
worth sustaining and defending but you can be cheated
out OF your principles if proper trap catch
your votes. We trust much to the intelligence and in
tegrity of our German Democratic fellow citizens
They are too wise to be cheated by such shallow and
selfevident tricks. II Mr. Bonge was elected would
ne not, as an honest man, be bound sustain Whie
measures and Wing principles7 Would he not be con
trolled, regulated, and directed by Wing leadersl Do
German Democrats desire to have man in power who
would thus go against their views their feelings, the
wishes, and their interests? We think they are quite
sagacious and discriminating enough understand this
little piece Of trckery this attempt to cheat them on
OF their votes by mere gull trap-a silly effort to sue
