The Tri.WeeklY Journal.

We received last week a number of addition
al subscribers to the Tri-Weekly Journal
This edition of our paper is at last beginning
to be appreciated. IT is almost Invaluable to
business men living in towns in this region,
especially in those places connected with this
city by tri-weekly mails, such as New Har-
mony, Mt. Vernon, Newburg, &c. Our tele-
graph dispatches of markets, &C., must be high
ly valuable to the merchants and produce
men. We daily publish telegraph markets,
excepting on rare occasions when the wires
are out of order. The market dispatches are
not only becoming appreciated in their full i'm
portance here, but at every point in this yicin-
ity. They are received exclusively by the
Journal, and published in no other paper in
this city. Each Tri- Weekly contains all the
reading matter of the two preceding Dailies,
excepting the miscellaneous matter on the
Daily outside. 1t is furnished at 81 per annum
and promptly mailed to subscribers.

That Campaign Paper.

The Sentinel announces that the Committee
appointed by the late Old Line State Conven-
ton, to get up a Campaign paper, viii COM
mence the issue Of that sheet next June. 1t
will be published by the Reveraad Mr.. lara
bee and his partner Mr.. Cotton, and edited by
VIM. Culley and Gordon Tanner. 1t has been
rather amusing to notice how some of the
country Old Line editors have been kicking
against this campaign sheet They not only
think, and very justly so, that this new and
low priced campaign paper, will injure their
own circulation but they have offered more
serious objections not Of a personal or pecu.
mary nature. Several have assumed the posi-
ton, that campaign organ at the Capital,
must advocate views which in certain sections
will do the party more harm than good-that
what suits one comfy, will be fatal in another,
&c. &c. We think these innocent editors IN
dervalue the shrewdness of their leaders
Those fellows who have control Of the Cam
paign paper, will take precious good care not
to be honest and straightforward in the ex-
preston of their opinions. They will SO dodge
and equivocate and mystify, that it will be
very hard for the Democracy" Of any section
to find fault with them. They will never in
jure their party by honesty, and Of that there
country contemporaries may well be assured.
If they should oppose or advocate a Prohibi-
tory Liquor Law, they would certainly give
offence in some quarters-so they will simply
oppose the late Prohibitory Liquor Law, and
carefully avoid entering into details as to what
kind of a law they want. And so it will be
with the slavery question, and with any other
issue upon which the party may in different
sections hold adverse opinions.
1t will be the duty of this campaign paper
to lead off in blackguardism, yituperation and
falsehood 1t will be the leader in all the dirty
work of the party. 1t will be the "whipper
I'M for the Sentinel and its party generally. 1t
will be the direct organ and mouth piece OF
the unprincipled leaders of the Old Line Dem
ocratic party-of those men who are now
grasping at Office, which they can only obtain
by deceiving the people as to themselves, their
objects and their principles. The country Old
Line editors will have to swallow the cam
paigner-aye, they will be called upon to lend
the influence of their columns to increase its
circulation, and woe to them if they refuse.

At home, Gov Wright cannot back his

do what undertake, it is not doubted by those
that know me, and if | fail in nay Kansas pro-

Some Of the cold line" papers in Indiana

speaking of the European war, that the Turks

Editorial sooiability

The "local'' OF the State Sentinel is get
ting savage toward certain gentlemen who
favor him with their company. Hear him for
his cause:
Those gentlemen of leisure who are in the
habit of making our Office their headquarters
for l0qtfng, and who deem it highly important
that they should have the first reading of all
our exchanges, are respectfully informed that
we deem ourselves competent to the latter duty
and that our office is not at all too large for
our. own use-we need every inch Of room it
contains
Mr.. Cotton must be Grabbed gnarled,
knotty specimen of the editorial fraternity
But probably it is because we are naturally
sociable and good humored that we like to see
our friends drop in and make themselves sat
home.p Our sanctum is large enough for all,
though sometimes when the chairs are filed,
we can only offer the accommodations of win
dow sills and centre table to the last CORNERS.
They are not only welcome to ROOM fire and
all the light which can penetrate through dirty
windows but TO the first reading of our ex-
changes. We have not yet discoTerd that the
FIRST reading of our exchanges by others either
Injuries them or substracts from them news
In fact, we rather consider it an acconmoda-
ton to have the wrappers torn off and papers
opened. There is real sociability in sitting
with valued friends around a big pile of fresh
exchanges, yet smelling Of tie mail bags, and
opening their damp leaves and making our
mutual discoveries Of news, gossip and novel
ties. We do not envy our Sentinel cotempo
rary his grabbed selfshness. We don't believe
he is a happy man. Weknow he is not a con-
tented editor, if the familiarity of approaching
friends but awaken a sour irritability. Swal.
lew some soda, old fellow, and sweeten your
stomach.

FREE DEMOCRATIC CoNvENToS-The Free

inst. The Journal says there was not large
attendance. A. L. Robinson, Esq, of this
city, was elected Chairman, but in the after
noon resigned a set of resolutions repre-
sented by Committee, re affirming the Pitts
burg Platform, and restricting slavery extern
sion, after much discussion was laid on the
table. They adjourned to meet with the Poo
pies Party on the LIST of May, not as any dis
tinctive organization, but as portion of the
people.
