The New state Bank.

We have already noticed the action of sew.
era communities ON the subject of subscri-
bling stock for the Branches of the new
State Bank. Below we give few further
items:
The Rushville American says:
The farce of opening books for the sub.
scription of stock in the Branch of the Bank
of the State of Indiana, recently located at
this place, was enacted yesterday at the Au-
ditor's Office in the presence OF a small audi
ence. We shall hereafter expose the whole
thing with all its corruptionss bargains and
utter disregards of the people of Rush county
We understand that when the sub COM
missioners met, accompanied by one of the
parties from this county to the corrupt bar
gain, man by the way who pretends to be
opposed 10 all banks, TO 90 through with The
farce of setting down stock on The regular
books, stock previously subscribed in pursu-
ance of the contract with Bright d Co., a
citizen of our place as the agent of other
citizens of our county-proposed TO subscribe
sixty odd thousand dollars in sums ranging
from 81 900 to $4,000, but he was kindly
told that they could not have sight-it was
not according to the contract! One of the
sub-commissioners said he had explained
tc all persons whom he supposed desired
stock, the terms upon which the location
was procured! The names of the preferred
stockholders were transferred, and the books
declared osed! The curtain deoppef, and
the farce ended!
The Laporte Union says:
| The stock for the Branch of the State Bank
| in this city has all been taken. The pginci-
pal part of the stock was taken by D. II.
Rose, of this city, and Col. E. D. Taylor, oil
| Illinois.
The Bedford STANDARD says:
The books were opened for subscriptions
of stock in the new Bank located 81 This place
on Tuesday, when it was immediately taken
up. We have no doubt but all the stock
would have been taken iT ediately, by res
idents of this place, had the opportunity be en-
offered Considerable Disappointment and
consequent excitement has been exhibited
since, and a petition was presented to the
commissioners, that the books should be again
opened, but without effect, as the required
amount had already been subscribed. We
are gratiied in the fact of the location OF
this Bank at this place, and Conceive this a
consideration paramount TO all others though
we would rather more stock had been taken
by our resident citizens, had it pleased the
controlling power.
The Terre Haute Journal says:
The stock for the new Branch Bank in this
city, was subscribe and the books closed by
IL O'Clock, they being open three hours
The entire stock, one hundred thousand do l.
lars, was taken b. about twenty subscribers.
AT New Albany an earnest protest was
drawn up and numerously signed, against the
proceedings there. No books were opened
at all at New A lbany at the place and during
the hours appointed We shall have more tc
say on this subject soon.

nWe conclude that resistance to slav-
cry extension" was the sentiment of the
members of the Convention as it is of the
Journal. But that sentiment they had not
the courage to express like men Sentinel.
How unhappy the members of that Con-
veRtion must feel at being utterly unable to
please the Sentinel Where would the
Sentinel's indignation have found bound or
limit, if the Convention had expressed the
sentiment the Sentinel is so athy about
because they did not express! But the Sem
tinePs indignation now is honest, and it will
be deeply participated in by the unti-Amer-
lean press generally. Under the presen,
condition of things, the defeat of their party
Is certain. Had the Convention taken the
regular Freesoil or Abolition ground, they
would have had high hopes of success. Nc
wonder they are now swapping and snarling
about the Convention. We hope it may dc
them good.

That Barxaiul

We understand that there were some
exceptions taken to our publication in yes
terday's issue, of the Louisville Journals ar
ticle, under the caption of "Locofoco and
Catholic Bargain" Now, we trust we have
no such teader-tooted readers as will object
to the publication OF any article, the tendency
of which is to expose error, or vindcate truth
and justice.
The question of the temporal power of the
Pope, has recently become q legitimate sub
ject of newspaper discussion, and the evil
dence of the exercise of that power through
the agents of his Church in the United
States, is sufficient to justify any criticism
ss to it's proPriety, that Republican press
may feel it it's duty to make.
The charge that there was such an ar
rangement made between the leaders of the
Locofoco party, and the authorities of the
Catholic church, as is alleged to have been
during the last Presidential campaign, is a
very grave one, and one in which:evefy citi-
zen OF the United States is deeply interested.
II is matter of the utmost importance to
the honest masses of the people to under
stand the details of these huge bargains. by
which a church, as such, is permitted to
exercise its influence in the framing OF
American laws, and moulding American in
stitutions.
In another aspect, II becomes equally
important for the people to understand, to
shat denth 0f corruo,;on poar;o,n S,.,a.
men will descend in order to secure power
and place to themselves. For these and
many other reasons, we can conceive no
improperly in discussing a subject of such
vital interest to our government, especially
when the charge of bargain and corruption
appears so well authenticated, and as we,
stands uncontroverted. We believe to it be
in conflict with the spirit of Republicanism'
that any church. asesuch. should figure in
the Administration of our government, OF
that men should be elevated and high to re-
sponsble stations, because they belong to q
particular church.
That Bishop Hughes has given counter.
nnce and support to political movements,
both in his own State and in the nation al
large, in consideration OF privileges and i'm
munities to be secured to him, hundreds oil
political key-holders can attest. That he
has almost annually received the Central
Committees of both the old parties in the
State of New York, we have unmistakeable
assurance, and that results have not unfre
qusniIy followed the direction which was
found agreeable to him. The conductors o
the elections of Gov. Seward and Gen. Tay
Tor will attest these statements. The famous
controversy between Greeley and BishoE
Hughes, during the Polk campaign, will alsc
attest it.
We simply say to our readers, who have
expressed dissatisfaction with our copying
the Louisville Journals article, that We re
gard It's subject matter as legitimatey sub
ject to be investigated rather than muzzle,
by the press.

An inebriated individual was seen peram-
bulating and n1sandering down Water street
yesterday morning, evidently laboring under
an exceeding weight of spirits. He seemed
intent on demonstrating the difference be-
tween n straight line and very crooked one,
occasionally flying off in a tangent. He was
indubitably satisfied of the truth of the pro-
position, that straight line is the shortest
distance between two points. But owing to
the circumgyration of Terra Firma, which
phenomenon he was totally unable to ac-
count for from the books, he found it utterly
impossible to run a straight line, and finally
gave it up in despair.

Pail Mall must also be closed. and the nobili-
ty must cease their Sunday driving and their
grand Sunday dinners. The titled gentle
men who have been urging these restrictive
measures against the lower classes have
been much alarmed by the Hyde Park de-
monstratiOn.
Government has disavowed Lord Robert
Governors plans, and it seems likely that
Sunday will soon be day of as much license
as ev er, simply because noble lords and men,
bers of Parliament have not the self-de NAL
to bring themselves within tire operation of a
law which is offensive to the people at large.
The firm stand taken by the people is but
one OF the many signs of great social revo-
luton now going on, which alarms The priv-
legged classes, since it threatens to break
down the barriers of rank and MAKE England
more truly republican than it has ever been +.
