The Indianapolis Journal, the leading Repub-
lican paper of Indiana, contains very fattering
notice Of John Davis, one Of the Douglas men
of thai State, who, although voting for the orgi.
nal Nebraska swindle in 1854 was firm and con.
sistent to the last in opposing a consummation of
the outrage. The Journal says that of all the
Douglas Democrats of the Northwest, out of IL.
linois, he is the only whose integrity has new
er so much as been suspected, and very plainly
intimates wish that the Republicans shall cor
daily sustain him for reelection.

The Congressional nominations in Missouri
thus far made abundantly show that in the next
election the division will be for and against eman
cipation. The Democrats have re,nominated
their present pro-slavery Representatives, John
B. Clark, james Craig, and John S. Phelps, with
John W. NOEL in place Of Sam Caruthers, whose
health is badly impaired, and have accepted
Messrs. Woodson and Andrews, the Lecompton
American members Of the preset Congress, thus
in effect consolidating the pro-slavery interests
of both parties throughout the State. Mr.. BLAIR
will most surely be re.slectedl in the ST. Louis
district, and the emancipationists have strong
hopes Of carrying one or two of the interior dis
tricls on that distinct issue.
