Weekly Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1853-1861, 1855-11-08

Or The Selstsilet says, the letter that oil
Henry A. Wise 10 the Boston aenl is dis
respectful and uubccoming the great Intel
lect from which il emanated It also says
"the absence OF all generosity, supplied by a
weak proscriptive prejudice, accompanied by
an utter want Of gallantry. are features OF his
composition, I'm the instance cited, very dis
reputable, and for which We arc able to olier
no apology
This rebnke from the Sentinel ~ the more
remarkable, as il has never before under It's
present control, been known to acknowledge
an error or sim Of commission or omission III
any leading emocrat.-EcanssiHe journal.
The Journal attempts righteousness at our
expense. or course, reb,kes from that paper
of leading Fusionists for errors ofomission or
commission are common things. If we I'M
derstand the position Of the Evansville Jour
nal, the reputation of the National platform,
adopted at the Philadelphia Convention, by
the leading Know Nothinss Of this State,
does not meet with It commentator The
Journal could deal some very merited rcbukes
to such men as 0RTH and COLFAX, Of this
State, TO say nothing of larger lights in Other
sections ofthe country; and fthe Editor could
speak the sentiments of his mind he would
not be slow to censure these Northern Arch
Know Nothing AgitatOrs, whose appeals iol
support are made upon miserable pan
deTings to sectional prejudice and bisot ianat
icism.
f, The great trouble, however, with the Edi'
tor of the Journal is, that if he should COM
s,eace his rebukes he would, in respect to con
sistency, be obliged to extend them to abou
Four-flths of his party, aud the presumption
is that this might get him into trouble.
