The assailant of Judge DeBrulor in the
editorial columns of the Enquirer, has at
length been brought to light; and by his
own tacit confession and the acknowledge
ment of the Enquirer, we are made aware
of the fact that a former editor Of the Jour
nal is the individual in question. This is a
very important point gained. In order to
make a controversy interesting, we like to
know the writer against whom our pen is
directed.
4 rare spectacle is presented in this new
editorial combination. A former editor OF
this paper, who a few months ago was at
swords points with the Enquirer, now is
virtually one of its editors, and rs that pa
per says, agrees with it in sentiment. In
1853 he was advocating Judge Hovey's
election with all his might, on popular SOW
ereignty grounds and because of his oppo-
sition to the Administration. Now he and
Judge Hovey are cheek by jowl together,
sustaining the Administration and the Le-
comptonites in a course of policy which
gives death-blow to popular sovereignty
and stultifes every popular sovereignty
man who sustains that policy.
In 1853, the new editor of the Enquirer
was denouncing Judge Law in the most
violent language, and charging him with
all manner of inconsistencies and political
offenses. Now he is giving aid and COM
fort to this same Judge Law, and incident
ally assisting in his election to Congress.
And as if to render his political degradation
more apparent, he applies those epithets-
BLACK Republicans, "Abolitionists" Ito the
party to which Judge DeBruler belongs the
use of which by Judge Law in 1853, he
pronounced q disgrace to the user a morti-
fcation to his friends, and of too paltry and
offensive character to be noticed
This very patriotic, high-minded, and
consistent writer aims at an influence over
the minds of Constitutional U nion men, by
pretending TO be a warm friend of John
Bell Yet he has assumed the post of edito-
rial contributor to one of the most uncon-
scionable Locofoco papers in the United
States, and is now doing all in his power
through its columns to fasten on the country
the destructive dynasty which is crushing
the life out of our free institutions. Truly,
in him the Bell men have beautiful speci-
men of a ''guide, philosopher, and friend"
We rejoice that we have unearthed
him, and that the people of /" The Pocket "
know who this new Southern light is, who
comesup out of the cotton fields of Tennessee
and Mississippi and the cypress swamps of
Arkansas, to enlighten them, and tell them
how to vote. His principles, SO carefully
formed for the Southern market he has
brought a little too far North to be in de-
mand. They are dead stock on his hands,
and are likely to remain so, unless he can
use them to advantage in the new political
partnership he has entered into.

Arrival of the steamer Niagara.

| HALIFAX, June l3, P. M.-The steamship
Niaqara arrived here at y this evening
! She has 78 passengers for Boston, at which
| port she will be due early on Friday morn
| ing. The reports of GaribadIs success are
confirmed. He attacked Palermo from the
| south side at o'clock in the morning of
! the 9th, and penetrated to the centre of the
city flag in hand, after desperate combat
| of six hours duration, and during an active
ombardment by sea and land. The royal
troops retreated to the palace and the other
public buildings. Hostilities were renewed,
and the royal palace was taken by the peo-
pie and in the evening burned down.
J -e loss in killed and wounded was very
consi0 cradle. Other towns in Sicily had
rise The bombardment still continued on
the ) t. 1t was said the Government was
deliberating on the proposition to order its
discontinuance. ine troops were concen-
trating in the castle on which Garibaldi
commenced an attack at noon on the 28th.
The English admiral had offered protec-
ton to American citizens at Palermo.
There great agitation in the court
and ministry at Naples The Ministry ten
dered their resignation on the 29th.
y liberal cabinet was expected to be
formed. Garibaldi was already carrying
out important administrative reforms at all
places under his power.
GREAT BRITAIN.-Parliamen had re-as-
sem bled. Important papers in relation to
China were submitted, giving all the par
tiCuars of the ultimatum and the reply of
the Chinese. The ultimatum demanded
ample apologies for the Peiho affair, the res
toraIion of the guns and ships lost on that
occasion, the ratification without delay of
the TeiR Tsin treaty at Pekin, and indemui-
ty of four millions teals for military expen-
ses.
The Chinese reply refuses an apology for
the Peiho matter, declines to allow an Am
bassador to go to Pekin, naming Penang as
the place of ratification instead of Pekin;
refuses to restore the guns and ships, or to
consider the payment of an indemnity. and
refers Mr.. Bruce to the regulations carried
out at the reception of the American Mis-
sion. These papers diSpelled all hope of an
amicable settlement.
Lord John Russell explained the nature
Of the Russian proposition relative to the
Christians in Turkey, and said Austria,
Prussia and England proposed that Turkey
herself should institute an inquiry as to the
fate of the Christians; which proposition
the Sultan was acting upon. France sided
with Russia.

RATIFICATION MEEnNG.-There was an
enthusiastic mass meeting at Vincennes on
Saturday, June 9th, to ratiiy the nomina-
ton of Lincoln and Hamlin
Col. Albert G. Sloo (who lately left the
Democratic party was President, and H.
NJ SmiGh and W. H. H. Terrell were Secre-
'taries
While the committee on resolutions were
out, Hon. J. W Gordon of Indianapolis de-
livered telling speech in vindication of
Republican principles and in exposition of
Democratic State and National misrute.
Appropriate resolutions were passed af-
ter which James G. Jones, Esq, of this city,
delivered one of his argumentative and eff
fective speeches, which was convincing and
entertaining. -.t
The Gazette of the 18th, in which we find
an account of the meeting which we here
condense, says that tall liberty pole was
raised on the day of the ratification meet
ing, bearing to the breeze in triumph a
beautiful flag presented to the Lincoln and

GOLD KNOX ALL RIGHT-The wide
awake Republicans of Knox County are
hard at work, and making good headway
against the spols loving Democracy. A
friend just from there informs us that
Third Party or Bell and Everett men are very
scarce. The old Fillmore men mp there are
determined not to lose their votes in 1850
as they did in 1886. Our informant made
some inquiry about Judge Laws strength
amongst the old Wings lie could only
hear of two in Vincennes who favored his
election, and one of them was conscience
snIitten and about 10 declare against the
Judge. He thou yht the Democratic nomi-
nee had been entirely too changeable in his
politics to be depended on these "troubIous
times y besides, he Judge had all his life
been fattening at the public crib, and be
thought it about time that somebody else
should have chance at it,
The prairies Of Illinois, our friend says,
ablaze for Old Abe. Lincoln. The Illi-
noisans say be can carry the State against
all opposition. y very prominent gentle
man who is travelling constantly through
Southern Illinois, told our informant that
the feeling in favor of Lincoln was growing
rapidly in Egypt.
Knox county is given up by many Demo-
Gratis sure for the Republicans.

not seen these gentlemen since the publica-

that neither Brenner nor Koonce wrote the
communication; nor am its author, either
directly or indirectly.
While writing, I will say, as no nomina-
tion for Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas was made at Princeton, | think news
paper correspondents would do well to leave
that question to Judge Pitcher and his op-
ponent, whoever he may be. One word
more: advise ''Iro Bono Pu6Eco," when
he writes again, to place at the head his
true place of residence and over his own
proper name. Yours respectfully,

The Common pleas Judgeship.

We publish in another place a letter from
Mr. JAMES B. CAMPBELL, of Marrs Township,
Posey county, in which he denies having
written an article signed "Pro Bono Publ
CO." published in the Journal of the 1lth
inst. We willingly give his communication
no man in a false light with his party either
directly or indirectly.
With the opinion expressed by Mr.. c.,
that newspaper correspondents have no right
didates for Common Pleas Judge when no
nomination is made we beg leave to differ.
The office is one of the most important TO
the people that they assist in filling, and it
is eminently right and advisable that the
qualifications and fitness of aspiramts should
be thoroughly discussed. Judge Pitchers
friends are entirely willing that this rule
should apply to him, knowing that no ex-
ception can be taken to him on the score of
ability or rectitude. These constitute the
qualifications necessary for the Office
A misconception has arisen from the fact
that Pro Bono's" communication was
ostensibly written in "Marrs Township,
Posey County" This very naturally is used
to fasten the authorship on one of the dele
gates from that township. 1t does not nee
cessarily follow, because the communication
was so snperscribed, that it was written by
one of the delegates there. If delegate in
any other portion Of Posey county, or of the
District, sees proper to rebelagainst the sell
fish aims of the Vanderburgh County Court
House Clique, and to put his protest into
print, he has for his own security from dis
covery, and in order to "cover his tracks"
according to the rules of strategy, a per-
feet right to date his effusions from what
ever locality he sees proper. In this in
stance, Marrs Township Posey County,
happened to be chosen. Any other town
ship in either of the four counties would
have answered fully as well. We think
our correspondent would have been very
unwise, under the circumstances, to have
given hireal place of residence.
We cannot wonder, that ''Pro Bono
should desire to avoid the punishment"
that disclosure of his name would inhict
upon him. A residence for him, inside his
party, would, if he were identified, he decid-
ly unhealthy. The Court House Clique
cIn brook anything better than rebellion
against the DEGREES of their packed caucuses
and conventions.
Our correspondent would be entitled to
praise if he had the moral courage to come
out altogether 'from amongst the foul par
ty,' but he sees proper to remain in it in
the faint hope of change for the better.
This he has perfect right to do. 1t is alto
gether with his own conscience He is GER
tainly entitled to praise for the small
degree of independence he already exhibits,
in preferring qualified political opponent
for the vitally-important office in ques-
ton, rather than to give it ont as apartizan
reward to a gentleman who although res
peclabIe and clever, is not competent to fill
the position with satisfaction to the people
whose dearest Interests are dependent on its
proper administration.

The Yincennes Gazette of the 18th comes
out in favor of Judge DeBruler for Congress
The Gazette shows concIusively that Judge
Deb. is the man wanted by the entire OPP
position of the District to beat Judge Law
with. We heartily concur with our Vim
cennes cotemporary in the opinions express
ed. Judge DeBruler IS the man for the
times, and we do not believe he win disre-
gard the calls in the shape of personal So
licitations and written requests which have
been and will be presented to him, from
every portion of the District. To use the
language of the Gazette, :" the voice of the
District is unanimous in his favor"
We take the following eulogy of Judge
DeBruler from the Gazette:
He is enthusiastic in his support of Lin
coin and Hamlin, and will make a most
vigorous canvass, and with every prospect
of success. The Judge is emphatically Il
man of the people, having, by his own en-
ergy and talent, built himself up. His early
life was one of toll, and he sympathises with
the laborer and mechanic. for the reason
that he knows what labor is. He has not
been rocked in the lap of wealth, nor has
be basked in the sunshine of aristocracy-
He has not been recipient of Government
patronage, nor has he pensioned off upon
the Government the whole or any part of
his family What he is, he has made him
self; unaided by Government patronage, or
by the influence of wealthy or powerful re-
lations, be has built up for himself repu-
tation and standing which makes him to-day
the prominent man of the Pocket District.
He will make most efficient canvass, and
! the signs OF the times indicate clearly that
be can be elected Then we say let DeBru l.
Ter be announced; let bim commence the
canvass at once; let him, in his forcible and
convincing manner, expose the cOrruptions
OF the party in power and the demagoguery
OF his opponent, and if the lst Congression- =
al District is not redeemed from the thral-
ION of Locofocoism, then we will be con-
tent to say we know nothing at all about
the people.

To CITY SUBscRIBERs.-Our Carrier boys
desire US to request subscribers who pay by
the week for the Daily, to have the change
ready for them on Saturday mornings
when they call for their pay. 1t is very in
convenient for them sometimes to maxi
change, and frequently consumes valuable
timses On few occasions, the carriers have
had spurious money and broken bank bills
passed on them. Any person who will i'm
pose on and cheat a boy in this manner has
no soul and deserves public execration. We
hope no one has ever done this knowingly.

John Bells Prospects.

We copy an article from the Memphis
AUaIanche, which contains some very cor
rect calculations in regard to the result,
should the election of President be thrown
into the House, and that of Vice President
into the Senate. We DO not reprint this
article out of any ill-will toward Mr.. Bell,
but because we wish to convince our Bell
and Everett friends that the cause of their
champions is utterly hopeless, either before
the people or in Congress- should the cleo
tion be thrown there. The argument of the
AUdldnche is founded on known facts, and
cannot be dlsproven.
Now what course is left for the Bell men?
What are they to do TO get rid of the obi
Gus and destructive oligarchy which reigns
at Washington Why, all turn in with a
good will, make common cause with the
Republicans and others represented at Chi
cago, and help to elect A6raham Lincoln
the friend and defender of Henry Clay; the
advocate of his doctrines; the working
mans friend the able statesman, the up
right citizen, the honest man.
Rally, old Wings, and assist in carrying
out the greatest reform of the age.
