1t may seem strange TO our old line
friends. but it is none the less true.
that Buchanan is not yet elected, and
probably will not be. The electors
chosen have right to vote for whom
they please, and ii is said on good au-
thority. that the southern electors will
not vote for him unless he gives them
certain pledges. Gov. Wise has spent
several days with him, at Wheatland,
in private confab. What progress he
has made. has not been made public.
Like some craftsmen that we have
seen, he thinks he has attained a "sub.

we see that Mr.. Stops has returned to
town. The circumstances Of the case.
as we heard them, are these: On We'd
nesday or Thursday of last week, Col.
Stoops was invited by friend to drink
with him At Federman's. They drank,
and the friend laid down 81 bill which
disappeared before Federman got hold
of it. Its disappearance caused some
stir, but il couldnot be found. Shortly
after, the baker brought 80 bill TO Fe-
derman, which he had got of Mr.. Stoops,
and which was recognized as the bill
that had mysteriously disappeared. Mr.
Stops left town fora day or two, no in
formation was lodged, and the matter
will probably not be investigated; as he
is one Of the faithful.

senatorial-A Useless Discussion,

OtuhbOIldl-A Obtlcee 04sCusoAoh'
Our contemporaries are discussing
the probabilities Of an election of u.
S. Senators by the Indiana Legisla-
ture next winter, just as if such a
thing were possible. 1t can't be done.
It is unconstitutional, and we are sure
that the legislature elect. will not so
disregard their oaths as to wantonly
violate the Constitution. 1t has twice
been decided by high authority, that
when a majority of the legislature on
joint ballot, differs from the majority
OF the Senate. the Constitution does
not permit an election, once under the
old Constitution and once under the
new. The people must learn to res
pect the Constitution. When such an
opinion is given, under the oath Of Of
fee, and approved by the Governor,
and Lieutenant Governor, and three
out Of four Supreme Judges, it must
be respected, though the opinion al
first appeared erroneous. OF course
there can be no election. Should the
thing be attempted. we are sure the
conservative branch" of the Legis-
lature will stand between fanaticism
and the Constitution and prevent it.
The conservatives" would be shame
fully recreant to permit such an out
rage They will never do it, hence
there can be no election, and we hope
our contemporaries will not stullify
themselves discussing aquestion which
is so utterly "out Of the question"

important from Kansas.

That the Buchanan press favors the
introduction Of slavery into Kansas Is
manifest from their silence on all the
pro-slavery movements in that quarter.
They can no longer say that the intelli-
gcnce from Kansas IL ell lie. manufac.
tured TO influence the election. There
are yet painful facts and movements in
that territory, and in regard to it, else
where. yet the pro-slayery press, north
and south, Is entirely silent. about them.
A"large and enthusiastic meeting Of
Southern men," as 1t is..styled in the Of
fetal report. was held at Westport, Mis-
souri,, not long since, at which the most
vigorous measures were urged for the
promotion Of emigration from the South
and the establishment Of Slavery In
Kansas. Hero are three of the resolu-
tions adopted on this occasion

yards and to the last extremity, each

These declarations are very explicit.

those who make them, nor as to tho
earncstness with which that object 10
pursued. In accordance with tho las,

Editorial Convention.

The Madison Courier suggests that a
meeting sof the Republican editors OF
The State be held at this city on the 30th
OF December, "to converse, consult,
and determine the course Of the journals
OF the State in regard to the candidate
for the Presidency in 1860" We do
not know that any particular good can
be accomplished by such a meeting, but
we are sure 1t can do no harm, and such
gatherings have always been pleasant
and improving. So we vote aye for the
meeting, and shall take pleasure in doing
all we can to make it agreeable.--Ind:
Jour.
We have not much faith in any politi-
cal good to be accomplished by such a
meeting, but there are social advantages,
and we are decidedly in favor of the
meeting, but We would suggest a later
day-say about the goth of February
The Legislature will then be in session,
and we love to look in upon the assem-
bled rcisdom of the State for few hours.
We propose also that the call include
all of the editors belonging to the PeO-
PIES party, instead Of those only, who
may be designated Republican. The
late elections, and subsequent events,
have shown that the difference between
the two branches Of the Peoples party
is neither very great nor very difficult to
reconcile. In spite of ourselves, even
if any one should desire it, the condi-
ton of the local questions that must
occupy the 'attention of the people OF
Indiana for the next two or three years
is such that the platform ofthe Peoples
party, las constructed last May. must
stand. Let all editors belonging to this
Party be invited

Buchanan, on Internal Improve
ments.

Just before the election, Buchanan
wrote letter to California, favoring the
building of a railroad by the General
Government. He wrote it so that 1t
should not reach the states until after
the election. II is here now, and
northern papers are copying it, appro-
vingly. But the southern papers, ham
die il without gloves. The following is
the opinion Of the Cincinnati Enquirer,
a southern paper published in the north.
Hope they won't begin to protest
against their man so soon. Il will be
hard for the President to please every
body. On this question we are a bet
ter Buchanan man than the Enquirer :
We cannot now 90 fully into this
question bat will enter our protest
against any such construction of the
Federal Constitution as will give the
Government this enormous power.
The question came before the Demo
cratic Convention which sat in this city,
and there was decided ma jority against
the right and power to construct this
work, and in the committee on resolu-
lions there was, we have heard, unan-
imous vote against il. A vague and in
definite resolution In favor Of the meas
ure was. however, forced upon the Con.
vention by the pertinacity Of the Cali
fofnia delegates, and was passed toward
the close Of the session. when the
temper Of the body was not very favor-
able to calm deliberation and wise de-
cision.
In the final vote Pennsylvania voted
against II, In spite OF the menance oI
the California delegation and their
withdrawal of their vote from Mr.. Blu
chanan, in the canvass for the nomina'
ton. The resolution was no fair ex'
preston of Democratic opinion, and Il
at war with the settled principles OF the
party. It's object can never have oul
assent or approval.
