Where Stands Indianai

Our neishbor, who by the way is a
very modest man, has the audacity TO
clam Indiana for the Black Democra.
CIV. If our readers did not know the
singular proclivity of the amdnueasis Of
the Democrat" to use words and dg-
urcs to suit the occasion, il might be
proper for US to further expose the fact.
But the simple case before us is sui
ficient for our purpose. The claim that
Indiana has gone for the Black Democ-
racy with the vote before him, must
condemn him with all honest men.
IL is true that the State ticket has
been carried by about 1000 majority
which is but the evidence that our gal
LIANT State is thoroughly anti-Black
Democratic, as taken in connection
with the other vote. The election OF
State officers and Supreme Judges in
VOWED no political issue, and thousands
OF Democrats who are anti-Le compton
and anti Black Democratic voted with
the opposition for Congress, and for the
Black Democratic State ticket, While
the state ticket has succeeded with
about 1000 majority, tho aggregate
majorities Of the several COMPRESSION
nj districts, for candidates for Congress,
in favor of the opposition, and against
the men aud policy Of the Black De-
mocracy is about 10000. This fluent
scribbler, for our neighbor we'll knows,
that on the State ticket there was no
national issue, but that the Congression-
al vote alone indicates where stands In
diana now, nationally, and where she
will stand In 1860? With 10, 600 major.
ity now cast against the Slavery
Blaek-Democratic policy of the Nation
al Administration, we predict that in
1850 her gallant sons will swell that
vote To at least 10000
Indiana is, and of right ought to be,
for free speech and free labor, and in
1850 will indicate that she regards the
interests OF her own white citizens as
highly as the Black Democracy do the
black labor Of her Southern masters.

The October Election.


II is amusing to witness the effort Of
our neighbor, and others of the Black
Democracy. to case themselves down
into their unexpected, and overwhel
ming defeat on the second Tuesday in
October. They figure and calculate, and
finally conclude that il is not much OF a
defeat AFTER all. In Indiana they con-
sole themselves that they have elected
their State ticket, and conclude that the
IIoosier State is good for Black Democ-
racy and Slavery extension in 1862
They forget, poor fellows thaton theonly
true test, the popularity oftaoir favor
ito President and his policy, the cleo
ton Of Congressman, they are over
wheimingly dytsacd; that where they
had majoke5 OF the Congressional
delegation, they Now have but trio,
where success is but the reflection OF
the siavcryism that borders our
neighboring State of Kentucky. This
they feel is fast giving way to the spirit
of the age, and just so soon as our ger
man friends of the first second and
fourth Congressional districts awake.
as they will do, from the political trance
into which they have been reposing,
their last strong holds will have given
way, and Black Democracy will be
numbered as of the past follics of the
ago. The legislature too of Indiana
against them and Bright and Fitch, the
supple tools of the slave power 10 dan
ger of the political halter-with the
legislature and eight out Of eleven Con
gressmen against them, nothing but
the desperation Of tho stake could i'm
pei men to cajole their friends into the
belief that its but little storm and will
soon pass over.
Ohio, Iowa, Vermont, Maine, and
finally the old keystone OF the arch
good old Democratic Pennsylvania

crushing, consuming majorities, and
yet they desperately cry out it is but 9

again in 1860.

Mr.. Buchanan Is not doomed to most

should be oyerthrown, crushed, annihi

anpled in tho history of this or any
