fsemovai OF Bronson.

We are pleased to see the Enquirer as.
sumo an independent position in regard to
the removal of Bronson. How many Demo-
cratic papers in Indiana will venture to ex-
press an honest opinion on the subject! The
Enquirer of Saturday says:
Judge Bronson has been removed from the
office Of Collector. We have not time now
to express our sentiments i'm full on this OIL
cial decapitation. We regret the act as un-
fortunate for the peace and harmony OF the
Democratic party, asIunwise in every aspect
and a. uncalled for by anything in the letter
on which we comment to-day. Inc Ad-
ministraton is astonishing and mortityiag
its best aud truest fr:ends-it is feeding the
flame of dissatisfaction which is already in
blaze and it is rendering more bitter the al
ready hot warfare which is raging in New
York. It is with sad feelings that we pen
these lines. We would have wished to have
kept free from a contest which can only be
productive of harm. We would have wished
that the quarrel in New York could have been
confined in that State until it had stung itself
to death. But we are fearful that such acts
as these will compel all Democrats who love
their principles to speak out in their defence.
In that case we shall shirk no responsibility.
We shall use the license OF our Office and
write our sentiments regardless of CO nsequen-
ces. II the feelings of the Democratic party
are to be outraged by the sacrifice to faction.

sequences who have done the deeds which

The BURNT MAIL.-About six bushels OF
semi-destroyed, blackened, charred, and part
ly burnt letters and newspapers-the result
of the recent accident by fire On the Railroad
have been received at the Cincinnai post
Office. In the wreck, has been observed a
draught for flOO from England, payable to
Thomas Richardson. There were lso por-
tons Of the Mss. of religions work writ
ten by gentleman in Chicago, directed to a
minister in Cincinnati. Many of the frag-
ments of letters bear the stamp of the steam
er Humboldt, the mail of which for the whole
western country, was almost totally destroy
ed.
Since the above was put in type, Mr.. Thos.
Richardson, who lives few miles from Ev-
snsville, has called to see us, and made known
his loss. The letter was advertised at La.
fayette, we believe. The name was visible,
but direction destroyed. The necessary proof
can be given to sustain Mr.. r. claim.
