6T If the Journal wishes to know the
amount of interest which M. G.. BRIGHT has
in the new State Bank of Indiana, we can
put him in a way to get all the information,
on that subject, which lie may want. John
D. Defees, one Of the ex-officio writers for
the Journal, and its late editor, who sold out
the Wings to the Abolitionists, is the grand
Gzyascstis of the new State Bank, and the
managing stock-jobber in this part of the
country. Call on DFFREEs, Mr.. Journal, and
he eau tell you all.
As majority of the Commissioners and
of the stockholders of the State Bank are
Fusionists, they probably did not give Mr..
BRIGHT more than his share, unless they al
lowed him "a little profit" for the use of his
brains.
The Bank Law is the offspring of Leg
islature which was largely Fusion and Black
Republican, and il it is bad egg, it is OF
your own production, Mr.. Journal. Take care
that you do not tread on the corns of some Of
your masters

OF HORACE GREELEY is now at Washing
ton City, endeavoring to force his party to
force through the House bill to admit Kan
sas as State, under her Topeka Constitution.
His object is to continue Kansas agitation in
Congress and before the country. His pres.
ent capital being nearly exhausted, and the
FAEMoET platform requiring that this misera-
bic nockery, called a constitution, should be
forced upon the people as their constitution.
He also sees that DOUGLAS, TooMBs and
CLAYTON are forcing through the Senate a
bill to restore quiet to Kansas by registering
the vote of her actual citizens, by taking a
correct census of her population, and provid-
ing for pure vote of her citizens for the
purpose of calling legal convention and of
electing Territorial Legislature, without
any interference from border ruffians or other
outsiders. These bills further provide that
there shall be sufficient armed force sta
toned within the Territory to fully protect
the inhabitants thereof, and to prevent the
Introduction of illegal voters, and that none
but regularly registered citizens shall vote.
These measures of Justice alarm GREELEY,
and he is now laboring to get up his issue on
the Topeka, UM. LANE Constitution, know
ing most positively that it cannot possibly
pass the Senate. Over its rejection he ex-
poets to raise howl about sitting the will
and the voice of the people, and the defeat o
what be calls free Constitution. 1t GER
tainly is "free Constitution" because it
was gotten upby an illegal mob, who were
entirely "free" from every restraint impOs-
ed by reason, prudence, patriotism, sense,
law or justice, and was only voted for by
about seven hundred people out of 10000
inhabitants. 1t is, undoubtedly, the sheerest
humbug Of the age, and just such an one as
suits GREELEY He feels that his party is
dead and gone without Kansas agitation and
Kansas falsehoods. Why have GREELEY's
men in Congress so long delayed their action
on Kansas measures? For seven long months
have they been at Washington, and with a
majority of two to one in the House, that
House has not passed a single measure to
relieve Kansas and the country from the anar-
chy and bloodshsd which have disgraced
that territory. 1t has never been the policy
of the Abolitionists to give peace and quiet
to the people Of Kansas; but On the contrary,
the more disorder, the more villainy and mur-
der that could be produced, the better pleas
ed were they.
The day has at last arrived when the peo-
pie are beginning to understand these disu-
MON Abolitionists, and GREELEY must again
make some new Vancouver to throw dust in
the eyes Of his followers.

The Ext ensiou of Slavery

The Fusionists charge upon the Democra.
cy that they are 10 favor of the extension OF
slavery. Whit is the ground upon which
they make this accusation This, simply
that the Democratic party advocate Congress
ioDal non-interventon upon the subject
that they advocate the right of the people of
the States and Territories to settle the ques
ton for themselves. An exchange tests the
strength of this Black Republican argument
by throwing it into syllogistic form, as fol
lows
All who are opposed to prohibiting the ex-
tension Of slavery into the Territories by law

The same journal well remarks, that the
position of the Democracy of the North is,
that, "while they decide for themselves that
they do not wish slavery in their midst, they
do not assume to sit in judgment upon its
existence elsewhere, nor presume to dictate
their views and policy to others equally Ca
pable of judging for themselves as we were
of judging for ourselves in choosing our IN

0FCheering news and indications reach
us from all parts of the country, even at this
early day in the canvass; from north, south,
east and west, the signs indicate that BUcH-
ANAN and BRECKINRIDGE will be most tri-
elected. Ratification meet ings
are being held in all sections, and the enthu-
siaSm thereby enllindled is intense. The
cordality with which the nominations are
everywhere received, has never been equal
led. We cannot pick up a paper. let it come
from what region it may, that we donot find
the name of some eminent and inhuen
tial man, Of the old Wing rank and Fl lie,
who openly declares his allegiance to the
Demo cratic party, and intention of voting for
its nominees. Even the more respectable Of
the Black Republicans, if there can be such
thing as responsibility among them, seem
ashamed of their candidates, and stink away
from the weak and sickly demonstrations
gotten up in their behalf. The attempt to
foist such a man as j. G. Fremont upon
the people, as even having a shadow of re-
spectability, inpoint Of talent, will not go
down, sweetened as it may be with all the
flag ends of fanaticism and Abolitionism in
the country. His true worth is known TO be
a clever lieutenant of Engineers, and the alb
surb fool-hardiness shown by desiring 10
preside over the destinies of twenty 1--WE mil
lions of freemen, is only equalled by the
disunion proclivities of the party, whose
nomination he accepts. Running such a
man, as the peer Of JAMES BUCHANAN, must
afford much amusement to the discerning
men of all parties. However, in November
next, he will receive such striking evidence
of his weakness, that we shall never again
hear of Fremont, and we hope forever Iut
aquetus to the base pretentions ofNigger-
ism.
The Fusion papers are loud in their false
assertions that the German vote will concen-
trate upon Fremont; but they do not give a
single instance where these same Germans
may be found. A few renegade leaders, of
deep Abolition dye, in Cincinnati, who have
been boiling for years, is the sum-total Of
theis-eesporal guard. The Germans know
too veil why it is that there are two princi-
pal tickets in the field opposed to the De-
mocracy, to be cajoled into the support of
any such designating factions. In the free
States they esteem Know Nothingism and
Niggerism in their true Enthusiastically
the same-and, as in years gone by, viii give
their support to the only party they recog-
nize-the Democracy. In our own city it is
particularly apparent. The Journal, with its
usual mendacity and recklessDess, falsely as
serts that the whole foreign vote is goiLg the
Republican ticket. Now, this we know to be
untrue; for we are called upon at all hours Of
the day, by both German and Irish citizens,
who assure us that any report as to detection
in their ranks, is totally without foundation.
They are almost to a man for BUCHANAN and
BRECKENRIDGE.
