GOV. wIIlard-Outpourin of the DE
m0cracy OF Louisville

Upon hearing that Gov. WILLARD would
visit Louisville, Saturday evening, the Dem
ocrats determined to give him reception
worthy of the glorious battle he has success
fully fought against the black legions. A
carriage drawn by four white horses was
taken to the Jacksonville depot, when the
Governor was brought to the Gait House
amidst the enthusiastic cheers of a multitude
spontaneously assembled.
1t was announced in the papers of Saturday
morning that the Governor would be there
and Inquiries were constantly made as to the
order of his reception; but the papers only
said he would be at the Gait House, and they
could hunt for the meeting. The crowd was
immense, and the enthusiasm unbounded.
The street was full of the masses eager to
see and hear the man who had met and van
quished the disunion and revolutionary party
of his State.
Governor Willard appeared on the balco-
nv, and made brief and appropriate speech.
He was followed by j. L. Robinson, Esq,
and DIR. Sherod, of Indiana; Col. Preston
and Thos. Holt, Esq, of Louisville, and Col.
B. Martin, of Tennessee.
The multitude adjourned at last with three
cheers for Willard.
There was no disturbance of the meeting
by the opposite party, which is very un usual
in that city.

For the State Sentinel
Shall Indiana be tn Banner State Of
Democracy?

/ have never doubted that Indiana would
go Democratic. but since the glorious victory
We have achieved in the election Of Wn-
LARD by larger majority than the most san
guine expected, it should nerve every Dem |,
ocrat to strive for the Banner by giving the
largest majority in proportion to the votes
cast of any northern State Of the Union
Illinois will closely contest for the banner-
she will give large majority-15,0o0 or
10000. Let Indiana give $4,000 majority
for Buchanan and the Banner viii be ours.
How can this be done? By rallying all our
forces at the polls. In Jefferon county there
is Democratic gain over the Congressional
vote of '54, of $50. A corresponding gain
throughout the State would more than do
the work. Our gain in the Sd Congressional
District is about 300. A corresponding
gain in every District over the vote Of "a
will swell our majority so much as 10 entitle
the gallant Hoosier State to the Banner
Let every Democrat go to work with de-
termination not to be outstripped by our
younger sister, Illinois, or any other State.
and the banner will be ours. What say you,

not win the banner2 Let us not stop to re-
ioice over what we have done, but we should

A VULGAR ERRoR.-English travellers
represent the Americans as a debilitated, de-
generate and sickly race, and the nonsense is
reiterated in this country by those who ought
to know better 1t is little singular that
such an enfeebled race should have accom-
plished more physical labor in subduing an
entire continent in less than two centuries
than all the nations of Europe have effected
for their own countries in the same time
Physically, morally and mentally there is no
more vigorous race than the Americans on
the face of the globe. They live as long,
are as hardy and well developed, can endure
as great an amount of fatigue, and accom-
plsh as much labor, mentally and physical
iy, as any other people. They have peopled
a continent and cultivated it till it produces
abundance, have traversed it with railroads
and telegraphs, built up a comm ercial marine
equal to the largest, and established the best
constitutional government that was ever de-
vised by man. We want no better evidences
than these of the vigor of their physical
or of the activity and strength of their men,
tai constitution.

WHORE Is the soheol.Maste or.

The opposition papers talk very hippantly
about the Democrats carrying the October
elections by means Of imported votes. To
show how much these charges arc worth, We
quote the following from the Louisville Jour
nal, Of Friday
There is one mattor, TO which, for the just
encouragcment Of onr friends, we wish TO di
rect their especial attention 10 ~ mat vas,
multltudes OF fraudulent voters were imported
by our opponents into both New York and In
diana IN anticipation Of Tuesdays elections
Atleast thirty or forty thousand were taken
into New York from the, neighboring States
there being no simultaneous elections in those
States, and tho number imported for the same
reason into Indiana amounted TO full eight OF
ten thousand"
Here is a direct and positive charge, thai
vast multitudcs of voters were imported by the
Democrats into both New York and Indiana
in anticipation Of the Tuesdays elections
Such u charge thus made implies that th'
author Of it LAS some evidence to substan
tiatc II.
Has the journal any such evidcnceP Mos
clearly noe; from the simple fact that NJ
election has yet boon held in New York.
There has, therefore, been no necessity 10
fraudulent votes, or votes Of any kind, II
that State. When II is shown that no cleo
ton has been held in New York, the charg'
that fraudulent voters have boen imported
into tho State, becomes most ridiculousl,
silly and absurd. II Prentice would max
such charge In reference 10 Now York
which every man must see is as false as II
foolish, would he not make tho same charg
in reference TO Indiana? Is there any NOR
reason for believing the charge that Indian
has been carried by fraud, whore an electo
HAS been held, than there is 10 believe th
charge that New York has-bcen carried b
fraud, where an election HAS NOT been held
Prentice must lie more intelligently,
he does not want 10 see his stories laughed q
TO his very face.

Diving Hard.


The Journal writhes dreadfully in its dying
agonics, but true to its natural instincts, il
continues to utter falsehood upon falsehood
to the last moment. We have often attempt
ed to correct its false statements and to warn
the public as to its real character, as being
entirely devoid of truth and veraoity. By its
unblushing false reports and statements, it
has induced many persons, who innocently
placed confidence in it, to bet their money
on MORTON, and thereby to lose large
amounts. These men who have suffered.
now openly denounce the journal as totally
unworthy of respect or confidence.
The Journal is now trying to inspire the
hope of the ultimate success of FREMONT in
this State, and is now engaged in rallying its
party for another contest in November, pro-
missing unconditional victory to the Black
Republicans. They must have great faith, if
they hereafter believe what this mendacious
and impudent sheet asserts and if they do
believe, they will find themselves worse dis
appointed and beaten in November, than they
now are in the State election.

0TThe journal thinks that the Democrats,
in holding their 'jollifcation meeting'' in
front of the Wright House, on Thursday eve-
mig could have had no other, motive than
that of insulting the proprietors, both Of
whom the journal asserts are staunch Re-
publicans.
We are sure that an imputation of this
kind will be treated by every Democrat of the
city, as it deserves. 1t will be difficult for
them to discover why the meeting of Thurs
day evening should have been intended or
taken as an insult, any more than the dozen
other meetings that have been held in the
same place during the canvass. The very
first meeting held by the Democracy of the
city, after the nominations were made by the
Cincinnati Convention, was held in front of
the Wright House. Meetings have been held
there at frequent intervals since, without the
slightest idea on the part of any one that they
were giving offence or Offering insult to the
proprietors. Had those gentleman so much
as limited that gatherings of the Democracy
IN that locality were repugnant to their feel
ings or wishes, we feel assured that they
would have been held elsewhere. So far as
the remarks of the Journal are mere ebulli-
ton Of the spite of its editors, they are un-
worthy of notice; but ifthey are to be regard
ed as protest on the part of the proprietors
Of the Wright House, it is but just that the
conduct and motives of the Democracy of
the city be vindicated.

"none 30 poor to do him reverence"
! John Charles Fremont Is no moro. His
remains were found last evening In front OF
the Enquirer Office. The Coroner, DIR. s. G..
Menzies, was Immediately sent for. He
came in haste, and jury was soon empan-
neled. The evidence elected the fact that
the deceased came 10 his death from the ef-
fects Of the ballot-box in the States Of Indi-
ana and Pennsylvania. That he died in
commissions, his body gave ample evidence.
His face exhibited the most frightful contor-
tons we ever witnessed. In one hand he
held the deeds for the Mariposa claim. In
the other was a copy Of tho Now York Tri-
bune, together with memorandum Of career
of twenty-one days in Congress. A file of
the New York Herald since his nomination
for the Presidency, was under his head, while
his pockets retained nothing but 81 0 US"
received from divers Republican Committees,
for monies lent 10 carry on the campaign.
Close beside him lay the Woolly Horse,
also dead-"dead as herring red" There
was nothing remarkable about the horse, save
that the wool was entirely off his back,
doubtless from the hard riding, and he had
the smallest imaginable stump OF atail--not
enough to swear by, Yet alore to hang on TO-.
The Coroner, after viewing the body of
John, mot the horse,) returned verdict in
accordance with the facts above stated, and
ordered that the deceased, (the horse and
John,) should lie in state until the official
returns of the elections in Indiana and Penn
sylvana were received, when they should
be decently inferred in one grave, with the
request that all good Christians should pray
for their souls.-Gn Times

ELECTION FRAUDS IN RUSH COUNTY
To the Democrats OF indiana.


The undersigned, on behalf of the De-
mocracY Of Rush county, feels itdue to the
cause of Truth, TO explain TO our brethren Of
the State the causes of our apparent defeat
in our county. TWAS done by bold, shame
less and almost undisguised importa-
ton Of voters, to the number Of about three
hundred, from the Burnt District, mostly
from the counties of Wayne and Henry.
The population of the county Of Rush il
not increasing, indeed, the last census shows
q small absolute decrease. II is composed
of farming community, with no large towns
nor are we engaged in constructing any pub
lie works, to bring transient population
The number of votes polled at the General
Election for many years past has shown great
uniformity in numbers--usually about three
thousand.
In 1854 we polled ....... .2,961
In 1855, in the most animated contest
We ever had-..- ....."........- ....3, l02
In 1906. ......-.... ............ ......3, 543
Thus showing an increase as compared
with 1854 Of 582; and as compared with last
year of AL.
The contest in 1856 was over the Clerk of
the Circuit Court. Mr.. HAoKLEMAs, the
leader Of the fusion, or Black Republican
forces, being their candidute, and Mr.. GEORGE
HIBBENs, the Democratic. The poll, as every
one acquainted with it knows, was contested
with all the vigor and activity that the par
ties could possibly command. The result
was in favor of Mr.. HIBBEN, the Democratic
candidate, by majority of 221.
Mr.. HAcKLEMAE received the full vote of
his party, to-wit: 1926 votes. This year the
Black Republican ticket receives 1922 =
Increase since last year 396!!! Mr.. HIBBEN
received, last year, 1647 votes, he Democrat
ic ticket receives, this year, I'LL votes; in
crease, Ga, about the number of voters who,
within the year are known to have abandon
ed the Black Republican party.
In single small township, Ripley in the
county, where last year the total vote was
291, it is this year 381. Mr.. Hackleman re-
ceived in this township, last year, us votes;
this year their ticket received 279, while the
Democratic vote varies but 13.
AT least eighty votes are believed to have
been imported against us in this township
alone. So open and shameless was this fraud,
that it was not denied by any one of the OPP
posite party who witnessed it.
We have the evidence to disclose this cor
ruption, and we intend to do it. Rush county
IS Democratic by full $50 majority, yet
Senator and Representative are attempted to
be imposed upon us by importations from
Henry and Wayne. We do not intend to
submit to it. We intend to contest both their
seats.
1t is believed Gin fact, we know we can
prove it in some instances that many of these
imported voters voted twice.

Tho Journal of yesterday, is decidedly the
richest sheet with which the good people of
this State have been favored during tho en-
tire canvass. Editors and correspondents
have all outdone themselves in their precious
vocation Of Misrepresentation and falsehood.
AS If the stupendous work which they have
performed in that line were not enough TO
answer the demands Of the occasion, tho
services Of the notorious and notable, ~. d..
d." as Chairman Of the Republican State
Central Committee, are put in requisitlon, to
supply the deficiency.
Between them all, they "do the thing up
quito brown" No. 40, Of the indianapolis
Daily Journal will pass muster In any court
Of inquisiton, as the master piece in the art
Of lying.
id d. officially charges that "immonso
sums Of money, raised by assessment on fed
oral Office holders, and otherwise, were en-
ployod In colonizing voters into the State
that thousands the Know Nothing OF
National American party, the supporters Of
FILLMORE, voted against the Republican State
ticket"
Theao statements are too glaringly absurd
TO require serious refutation. Even the Off
cial tail Of "Chairman" which j. ID. ID. Of
fixes to his name cannot elevate them to the
dignity OF respectable falsehoods. Not
cent has boon raised 10 this State by assess
ment upon officers Of the Federal Govern
ment for the purpose Of colonizing voters, OF
for any other purpose, and j. ID. d. knows IL
Not one eighth Of tho Fillmore mon in the
State Of Indiana voted for the State ticket
and j. ID. ID. knows II. Except in two OF
three localities, as In Shelby ard Vigo coun
ties, tho entire mass of Fillmore men wen
with the AboIitionlsts. In the Southern
counties where the Fillmore men are by IA
the most numerous, not mar OF them sup
ported WILLARD. Tho vote of those coun
ties proves this beyond all doubt or contro
vesy.
That j. d. ID. should prostitute his posi-
ton as Chairman Of the Republican Stat
Central Committee, 10 give currency TO
statement 80 glaringly false upon its yer,
face, as the charge that the FILLMORE me-
voted against the Republican State ticket
must be, is absolutely astounding. The Who'll

in November. The entire columns Of tn

initiating evidence. Falsehood Is Tapped up
on falshood, so close and compact, that it j
difficult to tell where one ends and anothe
begins.
The pretences of fraud on the part OF tn
Democrats, both in this State and Pennsylva
MIA; the attacks upon Messrs ROBINSON anC
RYAN; and the fictitious account Of a scene q
Brownsburgh, are all but part and parcel o
