SAD AccfDEYT-On last Thursday, Isaac
Huffman and others, were engaged in clean
ing out the we'll at the residence of Col.
Vance, in which the damps or carbonic acid
gas was discovered to exist A candle when
let down would 60 out when not great dis
lance from the top. This fact should have
deferred them from any further attempts to
clean the well until the gas was removed
but Mr.. Huffman ventured down. sent ND
one bucket of sand. stirred the bottom of the
we'll, which liberated the gas that DESTROYED
his life in a few moments. He gave signs of
distress that could not be removed before life
was extinct. Mr.. Pool then descended but
was so severely affected that he could not
secure the rope around the body. John l..
Christy was then let down, passed the rope
around the body very quickly and was i'm
mediately withdrawn, he had however made
few inhalations of the gas which produced
distressing effects. ~
1t was great risk of life in both Pool and
Christy, to venture down where so deadly
gas existed; few more inhalations and they
too would have been numbered with the
dead
The citizens rewarded them for their eff
orts to save Mr.. Huffman-but he had passed
into the eternal world, leaving a wife and
several children to mourn his loss Cralo-

The Liquor dealers Of this State have en-
ployed four lawyers to defend their cases in
the Supreme Court-one from Evansville. one
from Indianapolis one from Madison, and
one from this city. If the law is declared
unconstitutional, they are to receive $500
each; if not, they will receive S125 each

defend client from the tyranical usurpations

Catholics.

Some Of our exchanges arc defending our
Catholic fellow-citizens from the charge OF
disloyalty to their country. To us it seems
to be a bootless effort.
No body believes that Catholics owe tenn
poral allegiance to the Pope, except certain
incorrigible sectarians who could not be con-
WINGED to the contrary, though one should
rise from the dead. Their antipathy to
Catholics is like that of LOUIS XIV. to the
Jansenists. A courtier applied to His Males
ty to give vacant Office to a friend. Your
FRIEND" said the King, SIS, | understand, a
Jansenist, and 1 can never have cne of those
heretics in Office" "Your Majesty" replied
the courtier, "has been mis-inforrned, my
friend is an Atheist" "Ah, WE'LL" answered
LOUIS, che can have the office"
1t is idle to argue with men of that stamp
Let them hug their fond delusion; they are
embracing cloud.
But there are certain knaves and political
adventures who, with no vestige of religion
themselves, play upon the earnest, though
erroneous religious convictions of the people
to subserve their own selfish purposes Such
men cannot be too strongly condemned They
are as bad as BARNUM, of whom the Delta
said, "that for the sake of money he would
dig up the homes of his father, and exhibit
them as those of KIDD the Pirate"

For the State Sentinel
Judge Otto's argum ent in the Su-
preme Court against the Constitu-
tionality of the Liquor Law.

The ouestion OF the constitutionality of the |
recent Act of the Legislature for the suppress
sion of intemperance, is now before the Su-
preme Court of our State, awaiting the final
Occasional of its merits. The probabilities as
to whether the Court shall give an opinion
for or against the law, have caused much
speculation among those who are interested
in the matter one way or the other. The
greater portion of the community appear
somewhat Indifferent as to the result. Able
LAWYERS have been engaged for the past two
DAYS in the discussion of the law before the
Supreme Court. We did not have the pleas
ure of hearing any of the arguments Of Coun-
sci. except that of Judge Otto. of New AL
banv. and it was truly an eloquent and clear
opposition of the various objections made
against the validity of the law.
This gentleman, with whom we have not
the happiness to be acquainted, is one of the
hest legal and literary scholars in Indiana
His STYLE of eloquence iswhat we would call
the judicial or conversational kind. 1t pos
sesses the weight of the one and the calm
ease and felicity of the other. He spoke for
two hours or more, during which he never
hesitated for word, nor used one that was
not perfectly choice and appropriate. His
closing remarks were of the true conservative
metal. Speaking of the declaration of the
great Webster, made in the Senate of the u.
s.. that he (Webster) would not cast vote
that had the least tendency to violate the
fundamental law of the land even though the
enemy were battering down the very walls
of the Capitol, (referring to the anticipated
rupture with France.) Mr.. Otto observed
that so it was with regard to the monster evil
of intemperance-to remove it, resort should
be had to other means than those which vio-
lated the organic law of society, established
by the voice of the people for their own gov
eminent and restraint In the case put 10y
the great Senator another Capitol could b.
. built. but another Constitution might not 81
easily be framed. In the latter instance thu
same reasoning was applicable. If the evil
spoken of could not be remedied withou
: trampling and ignoring the fundamental Law
e of the land, we should make use of othe
means to effect our philanthropic purposes
for in his humble opinion the preservation Q
> the Constitution Of the State in all its purit
and integrity was above all other considers
tons. This was the substance, and nearl
the exact words, of the speakers remark
! and they embody the sentiments of ever
: patriotic and law abiding citizen.

OF And will the Sentinel editors tell u.s.
too, if it is the "spiyIt of the guarantees OF
the constitution that our common territory
should be divided between Slavery and Free
dom, why it was that the very trainers of the
Constitution themselves prohibited Slavery in
all the territory then belonging to the United
States! If 1t was not wrong then to save ter
rltory to freedom, why is it wrong now? Will
the Sentinel answer? we desire the informa-
tion.-JIotrnal of July 9th.
The cession of the Northwest Territory as
the Journal well knows, was made to the
old Confederation and the ordinance of Con-
gress for its government cannot with any pro-
priety, be said to be an act of the trainers of
the Constitution. On the contrary, Mr. MADI-
son, who was one of the principal trainers of
the Constitution, expressly declares in the
38th No. of the Federalist that the ATTEMPT
of Congress to prescribe the conditions on
which the States to be formed from that ter
ritory should be admitted, twas done without
the least color of constitutional authority"
The makers of the Constitution contem-
plated the continuance of Slavery as long as
the Constitution itself, for they recognize it,
not only in the surrender of fugitives, but as
an element in representation and taxation.
But it should be remembered that the
whole Southwest was Slave Territory, and it
was reasonable enough that the Northwest
should be free. The law of political equi-
librium required it. But to exclude the
South from all the Territory purchased by
her blood and treasure is naked robbery. If
one partner should attempt to defraud his
co-partner of his rights in the partnership
property and alledge as reason that such CO.
partner kept concubine or was drunkard,
it would be an analogous case
The South, in demanding part of the COM
mon Territory, have no purpose of emsnci-
patton; such is the probability,
Yet speaking as Northern men on the sub
ject of the diffusion of Slavery, we have no
apprehension that such diffusion will be in
furious to the Slave. On the contrary, those
who wish to get rid of the institution can do
50 with greater facility and less expense
This was the opinion of Mr.. JEFFERSON, Mr..
CLAY and many others, and it is sustained by
statistics
The increase Of the free population is faster
than the Slave population by fraction opsr
three per cent. an fifty gears. Those who are
in favor of REORGANIZATION in manner
which will be peaceable and bloodless and
unattended with social commissions, should
seek to thin and diffuse the Slave population
over as large an area as possible.
