Nor RrsuRRncrED. There has BEEN re.
port current In this city for some days past, to
the effect that the sexton had disposed Of the
body Of the late Levi Dick, respectable col.
ored man Upon inquiry, We find that there
Is no truth In tho report. It appears that
the body was placed In the public vault, to
remain there for a week, at the expiration OF
which time the relatives and friends of the
deceased prepared to bury it. Upon appear
that the body was removed, when the sexton
said that he had been ordered, day or two
previous, to bury it. He could not tell who
gave him the order. The relatives, and the
society who had buried Dick, suspicioning foul
play, had the grave opened in their presence,
whom 1t was discovered that the body was
really there.
As this matter caused considerable excite.
lent among our colored population, We are
pleased at being thus able to explain it.

THE FREE BANks.-The following let
ter of Auditor Dunn we copy from the
Louisville Journal:
OFFICE OF AUDITOR OF STATE.
Indiana polls, Nov. 6. 1854.
Messrs. Prentice d Htndersom:
Gentleman. Your favor OF the 2Sth
Oct. is before me, and | embrace the first
leisure moment TO reply to your ques
iion::
1st "When the State bonds fall below
par, have you the power TO require OF the
banks additional security, and ifso, have
you exercised that power?"
Answer--The law gives me power to
require additional security, if. in my judg.
ment, think it necessary. AS yeti have
not done it.
I'd. "What has been done with the in
,erest which has accrued on the bonds
deposited with your
Answer-The banks up to lbs, July
have drawn it. The interest which h as
accrued since is in this Office, and will be
retained from all banks who do not redeem
their issues as required by law.
3D.. "At what rate have Indiana 3 per
cents been taken by you?"
Answer-At par. it being the common
selling rates of such stocks when depos
tied.
4lh. ISIS it necessary to protest each
bank note for non payment before a Go,
mand can legally be made on the Auditor
to sell the bonds by which the notes are
secured?"
Answer-The protesting of q single
note is sufficient to compel the auditor TO
close the bank and sell her securities, I'M
less the bank within 80 days comes and
redeen.s it in gold or silver, and costs Of
protest. My opinion is. that, to make n
legal protest, each note should be seper.
ately protested. l have thus given you a
reply TO each Of your questions, and hope
satisfactorily. There has been returned
by the banks within the last two weeks
over half million of their notes and the
securities lifted. This is going on very
rapidly. the banks being determined TO cut
down their circulation as low as possible.
Respectfully, yours.

WIG PAPER AT INDtANAPoLIs-Af few
weeks before the recent election the State
Journal, formerly the whig organ in this
State. was sold to company of aboli-
iionists. This was stoutly denied at the
time: but it appears. since the new man
ayers have taken charge OF the Journal.
that its aboliiionism is beginning to dis
gust the conservative wings of Indiana
The Connersvil.e Telegraph says:
I'VE some time since made few re.
marks relative to the sale of the State
Journal office TO a body of Abolitionists.
and urged the nece ssity of a spirited and
reliable Wing Organ at Indianapolis.
which we have not had since the DAYS of
S. V. B. Noel. We find the conserva
tive of the Wing press throughout the
State all in favor of such paper"
The New Albany Tribune has no con
fidence in the State Journal. no matter
what Its profession may be. The Trib-
me says;
LAS member Of the Wing press of
1ndisna, we. for one, join In the demand
for Wing PAPER al The Capitol. The
cOgnized as "hig organ, no natter wha t
ii may profess to be. 1t is owned by
abolitionists. and will be devoted TO their
interest, and as abolitionism and wing
gerry can never be united. there is an ur-
gent necessity for a new whig paper at
Indiana polis--one that will have the
good of the country at heart-"a high
toned, efficient and spirited" sheet. that
will reflect the sentiments of the Wings
Of Indiana"
1t is very evident that the Wings of In
diana are becoming ashamed of their con.
nection with The Abolitionists, to whom
they are indebted SO much for their sue.
cess in the recent election. They are
no longer the Peoples party; the election
