HENDRICKS AND THE PEoPLE.--Keep il be-
fore the people that T. A. Hendricks, al
though elected in 1852 by over 3, 700 ma
jority in the 9th District of Indiana, and af-
ter the Introduction and before the passage of
the Kansas Nebraska bill, which contained
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise, and
which has extended slavery into free ter
ritory more than five times rs large as the
State of New York, admitted to his consti-
tuents " that the bill was unnecessary and
uncalled for, and dangerous to the peace
and integrity of the Democratic party "
yet upon the Administration promising to
" take care of such members of Congress as
should vote for that measure, and for so do
ing, be defeated by their constituents" T.
A Hendricks, we'll knowing that his consti-
tuents were opposed to that bill, did betray
them, and voted for it; did seek and obtain
a nomination in 1854 for reelection, and
was by that same constituency, for that be-
trayal, at that election, defeated and repu-
dated by over 500 majority and that that
administration did take care of him, by re-
warding him for that betrayal of his con-
stituents with the appointment OF Commits
siouer of the General Land Office, upon the
spoiIs and incident of which he has grown
wealthy. Can an honest man, thus betray-
ed, vote second time for his betrayer2

NEW York, Sept. 2Oth.-The Herald
correspondent says Mr.. Seward made to-day
the great speech of the campaign. He
looked to the acquisition of British Ameri-
ca, Russian America, and Spanish America,
and declared that the man was born who
would live to see the American people COM
ing to the harmonious understanding that
this is a land of freedom and free men, that
it is the land of the white man, and that
whatever elements there are to disturb its
present peace will before long pass away
without endangering this great Union
Talking Of the threats of the South TO dis
solve the Union he asked, who is afraid p
Nobody can be bought. lie prophesied that
the time would come when New York would
cease to be the Empire State, and Pennsyl-
vania would cease to be the Keystone State,
as Virginia has already ceased to be the Old
Dominion. The New Dominion, the En-
pire State, and the keystone State would
be hereafter in the Mississippi Valley.

CURE FOR IN-GRowING NAILs.-It is stat
ed that cauterization by hot tallow is an
immediate cure for ingrowing nails. Put a
small piece of tallow in spoon and heat
it over lamp until it becomes very hot,
and drop two or three drops between nail
and granulations. The effect is almost
magical. Pain and tenderness are at once
relieved, and in few days the granulations
all go, leaving the diseased parts dry, and
destitute of all feeling and the edge of the
nail exposed, 50 as to admit of being pared
away without any inconvenience. The
operation causes little if any pain, if the
taIlow Is properly heated.

INTERESTING TO OIL WELL SrHcULArORs

INTERESTING TO OH WELL STECULAToRs.
Late intelligence from the oil districts re-
veals the fact that the celebrated Tideout
well stopped flowing over the top after
throwing some two hundred barrels. A
pump has been inserted and the well is now
yielding some thirty barrels day. The
famous Crosbey well has dwindled from
seventy barrels day to six or seven, but
the owner thinks the failure is attributed to
the filling of the pump, and hopes to do
better when it ia cleaned. Out Of two
hundred and sixty-seven wells on the creek
above TiLusvilIe, only thirty-four are yet
pumping oii.-Fftts6,0g Ess1'iRg Chronicle

The state Tickef.

The glaring corruptions and extravaganza
of the general government attracts the at
tention of the people to such degree that
we fear they lose sight of the enormous
frauds practiced' by Governor Willard and
his party in the administration of the affairs
of this State. The people of Indiana are
more directly interested in fair and honest
control of the finances of the State than
they are of the general government, and
should labor, first and most zealously, to
effect change there. We have heretofore
shown up the reckless and dishonest course

been controlled for party purposes-that

been practiced in the location and erection

New ROAD To HARMoNY.-The Courier
informs US that its recommendation to the
Kentuckians to drive all Republicanism to
this side of the Ohio river, was with the
''soIe aim to cultivate a spirit of fraternity
between the North and the South"
The means seem admirably adapted to
the end. The idea is quite brilliant as
the tact of an editor who begins a mission
to advocate the cause of Breckinridga and
