W "During Washington's administration
three new States we admitted into the Union
"-two slave and one free. And Washington's
immediate successors admitted all that ap-
piled without pausing . minute to inquire
into the domestic habits of the people. 1t
was none Of their business"
We see the above or similar paragraphs re-
psated in party papers, every few weeks. 1t
is designed to mislead the young, and those
not familiar with the political history of the
country. The slave States admitted during
Washington's administration, were Kentucky
and Tennessee; they were parts of the States
of Virginia and North Carolina, and as parts
Of the States already in the Union had the
rights of States. Tennessee was mporarily
under . Territorial Government, but slavery
existed within her bounds, under the laws o
North Carolina, before tho cession Of the
Territory to the Union, and those were con
tinued and have ever been . part of her statute
law. Congress had no more right to abolish
slavery in Kentucky and Tennessee at tn
date ofthsir admission, than it had to prohibi
it in any Of the counties of the mother States
from whom the younger States were separat
cd. There is therefore no force whatever il
this example to which reference is so con
SANITY made.

Horrible Death-The Columbus Fete, &c.



A deep interest is awakened along the line,
upon the subject Of the extension OF our road
from Terre Haute to Attica. From the in
tslligence we receive, we think it needs but an
active and intelligent gentleman, who can lay
the subject before the people, to canvass the
route, and secure local subscription that
would guarantee the building Of the road. No
project that has been preached among Us has
excited more interest and enthusiasm in its
favor. Our own citizens are awakened to its
importance-the papers in Terre Hsute have
seconded il with spirit; and gentlemen living
beyond Terre Haute have called on US to as
sure us that their neighborhoods are ready to
contribute to help the work; and from the
town Of Attica we have received pledges that
the citizens of that place will subscribe liber-
ally to the enterprise. The Rockville Rspub-
lican, in Parke county. copies our articles, and
approves the plan of building the road by q
new and Independent company, and says it
believes "the people along the line will take
stock enough to build the road" ain Parke
county the people have already taken stock
to build and bridge the road to the Vigo line.'

vigo county line is already completed. From
the North line Of Vigo to Terre Haute the
distance is but 10 or IL miles. over q Level

cost more than $1,000 per mile; so that the

Ma. EDIroR:-H Mr.. Willard as Lieut.
Governor, was not eligible as a candidate for
Governor Of Indiana; then it follows that Hon.
Oliver P. Morton was the only eligible can
didate for that Office; consequently he is, both
by law and precedent, Governor elect of the
State Of Indiana. 1t would then certainly be
made expedient to have him inaugurated as
such, than to have new constitution and a
new organization" If the present constitution
is disregarded. what guarantee have we for
their obedience to new one, not to speak of
the consequent expense and delay in obtaining
it? For "the powers Of government to return

0T Emancipation is now openly discussed
in Missouri. Several leading politicians Of
both parties have declared in favor Of it; and
the subject has progressed so far As to alarm
the pro-slavery men, who have introduced re-
solutions into the Legislature to condemn it,
declaring it would be an act Of great injustice
to the shareholders. The Benton party open
ly favor it, and many Of the anti Benton
Democrats say itmust be left an open question
in their ranks, on which every man is to be
permitted to express his own opinions; and
some have already improved it to declare their
sentiments in favor of it. The American par
ty in that State will rather aid than oppose it.
though they have always insisted upon leav.
ing it an open question in all their discussions
The following scene occurred in the House o.
Missouri, on the introduction of the resolu.
ton against emancipation. Mr.. barnes intro.
duced the resolution, and Mr.. Reid 1.-THE famous

Reid attempted to justify his claims to thai
character:
Mr.. barnes interrupting, said he had made
the statement and would say to the gentle
man, "lay on Macduff, and damned be ho who
tirst cries hold. enough" The gunpowder smell
about the gentleman had no terrors for him
and that his room was No. II, City Hotel
and he could be found there.
Mr.. Reid said he thought the gentleman
room should be found at No. IL, little lowe
down the river. Mr.. barnes said Mr.. Reic
ought to have had place in the penitentiary
before he fought the battle Of Ossawatomie.
Mr.. Reid walked down the aisle and caugh
Mr.. barnes by the collar and struck him will
his fist, knocking him down. Mr.. barnes 60

Members interfered and separated them.

behind him and knocked him down. He pro

Mr.. Reid made an attempt to get at Darne'
but was prevented by the members near hir
at the time.

u The Hon. Richard w. Thompson has
addressed letter of four columns to Mr..
Hudson Of the Terre Haute Express, in which
he shows up the tergiversations in the politi-
cal course of that gentleman during the last
year, which are more amusing than any feats
on the political slack-wire that we have read
Of He not only deserted his party, and out
ragged the most solemn professions Of faith,
but turned in bitter hate upon the friends who
stood by and smiled at his eccentric somer-
sets. From having been the confidential per-
sonal and political friend of Mr.. Thompson,
who extolled his virtues and exalted his tai
Tents, he turns in day to be his bitter tradu-
Ger and unrelenting political enemy, and be-
comes the active instigator Of the outrageous
charge that Mr.. Thompson was colluding
with the old liners to defeat Fremont for
which he was to receive the $4,000 fee land

Indians, through the Treasury Department.
And when that story grew stale, it was dis
covered, the price Of his treachery was to be

very happy way. placed his traducer-false to

tions--in q sort of moral pillory, with both
feet and hands in stocks, sticking out most
unenviable object for the public gaze, while he

0r The manner in which the Republican
press in this State has announced the death
of Mr.. Brooks. is as unchristian as it is I'M
manly and vindctive. Before all that is NOR

that God, in his vengeance, has taken him..

now he is dead, We are willing to inter the
evil he has done, with his bones. Detraction
