Owing to the rapid increase of the business of

erected expressly for them-and have added to
their Printing Department one Of Hoes Mammoth

have now two Prssses-one EIGHT .CY Under,
and one SIX-CYLlNDER-and these, together
with other improvements, give them the most COM
plete Daily Newspaper estabi shment in New En-
gland, and will enable them to meet the demand
OF the public more punctually than ever before.
In issuing the Prospectus of the Journal for
1851 tho proprietors have only to say that they
shall endeavor to make it the LEADING NEWS

able intelligence from all sources. The indications

A Lick ut the Irish.

The Democracy have repeatedly nomina
ted Irishmen to conciliate the Irish vote
and then beaten their own nominee to con-
ciliate the Know Nothing spirit among the
natives" In this city they have done it
repeatedly, as more than one of them can
testify, and has testified with bitterness OF
soul. Our friend Ryan is a battered mon
ument OF Democratic duplicity in this re
spect. The only election he ever got was
from Republicans. But his friend, and
our friend. too, we think, Cornelius O'Bri
en- is quite as conspicuous an illustration
Of this Democratic dislike Of foreigners
He was the Douglas candidate for Clerk of
the Supreme Court, and If he had been
elected would have made as good an
officer as ever held the place. His quail
ncations, aud his generous, manly charac
ter, are known to everybody. He has been
Democrat all his life, at least all of il
that he has spent in this country. He has
never wavered, or resisted, has always vo-
ted the ticket, and fought in line to the
last. But all this could not save him from
the proscriptive policy Of his party. In
Lake county at the late election, he was
beaten 72e, while Hendricks and the rest
OF the State ticket were only beaten 55S to
S6O votes. The cause of It was fonnd in
st. Johns township, an iuvincible Demo-
cratic locality. There the vote stands I5S

like this manifestation of Democratic love?

Most, if not all of them. devoutly pray for
Lincoln's cuccess, believing that in his
election they havean undoubted guarantee
of another official term. Under Lincoln's
administration it is presumed no Souther
man would be an applicant for office, and
of course no Nothern man would have the
temerity to accept office in South ern
State, even il rendered to him. The
odium which az outsider would incur In
the South by soliciting an Office and ac-
cepting it il offered 10 him, would not
attach to the present incumbent, inasmuch
as he is 10 possession. and not, technically
speaking. an applicant. In order TO heigh-
ten this odiun, and with view, no doubt,
to scare off all troublesome competors,-
many of the present incumbents repudiate
the idea Of continuing in Office under Lin
coins administration, when il is well
known that very few of that class through
out the whole southern country eontem-
plate resigning. / have no doubt this pol
icy will work well for the oficeholdiog
tribes; for should any other of the candi-
dates now in the field be elected, they
would have to encounter the usual quad
rennial onslaught which makes the return
of each presidential election the terror of
that hungry, voracious horde.

ESryRrRIsE.-We are always pleased to
see evidences Of enterprise, and spirit Of
go aheadativeness among our citizens. In
no case has the spirit been more manifest
than in the manner in which Dr.. Patrick
d Company are building up a business on
the corner of 9th and Wabash streets. Be-
sides having Drug establishment second
to mons in the West, they have become
agents for the sale OF choice pure liquors
and the best qualities of Tobacco and Ci-
gars. The latest improvement in their bus
mess is securing the agency for the sale
of Faehr d Co.'S excellent Wines-Cataw-
ba and Isabella-Sparkling and Dry
These are said 10 be superior TO Long
worth's wines which have a w world- ide re
nown. We shall be GLAD TO see these
Wines take the place Of the poisonous liq-
uors that have produced such serious con-
sequences upon the human system.

separating the races, and preventing the

~ The Local ofthe Journal broadly in
timates in his issue of last night that the
Democrats alone fought the battles Of the
Mexican war. The history of the country
shows the facts to be different. A few
Democrats went out as officers to instruct
Gems. Scott and Taylor how to carry on the
war, and few others went out to seell po-
tstoes to the soldiers at 25 cents pound.
These comprised majority Of the Democ
racy Of the army. If We are rightly in
formed the courage of the brave Edwards
was fully equal to the emergency of enlist
ing for the whole war, and il is whispered
in confidential circles that he was the CON-
fidential adviser of Winfield Scott during
the whole campaign, and that he single
handed stOrmed Chepultepec with ozark
lantern" His honesty. only equalled by
his bravery, has alone prevented him from
superceding Gen, Scott aud taking COM
mand Of the army.

The Atlanta Locomotive, which is not
steam engine. but Breckinridge news
paper published in Alabama. blows the
whistle Of alarm in the following manner:
"Since Pennsylvania and Ohio have
spoken oat upon the great political ques-
tions Of the day in their home elections,
it is a general concession that Abe Lin
coin must be our next President And
this has produced different effect in diff
ferent minds, for while an overwhelming
majority deplore it, others in our midst re-
joice over it asithe consummation OF their
devoutest hopes. There is a decided ma
jority OF this first class, however, and who
are the true inhabitants of the South, and
the real proprietors OF its soil, who have
written upon their hearts with clinched
teeth-Abe Lincoln, so help us Heaven,
shall never be our PRESIDENT
We like this style Of rehtoric. The san
guin -ay sort of chirography which is i'm
piled in writing upon ones heart with
clinched teeth" could never have been sug-
gested to any imagination less vivid than
that of the editor OF the Locomotive, fed
with fire and eruptive steam The only
improvement we could venture to suggest
would be the substitution of the word
"biting" for "writiIg'' but this would be
sacrificing impressiyenees to truth.
The sage K. N. Pepper was right when
he said-"Readin and ritin is the crownin
glory of these United States. How hard it
is to write goodw Yet the probabilities
are that Lincoln will be our next President

The nlaYornIty.

We suppose as soon as Mr.. Patterson re-
ceives his commission as Judge of the
Court of Common Pleas, the Office of Mayor
which he now holds will be vacant By op-
Grafton of law. An other Mayor will then
have 20 be elected, and who is to be the
man is a question exciting public interest.
The Office of Mayor of the city of Tsre
Haute il properly filled is one of much i'm
portance and dignity. 1t is one of respon.
sibility and influence and should be filled
only by a man of character. of gentlemanly
department, of correct habits, of good
learning and OF high sense ofindividual
honor. If the Office of Mayor is to be re-
garded as a sinecure-a position INDUCED
in by the incumbent at six hundred dollars
per annum, and whose chief duty is to
draw his salary, then the LATEST and most
inefficient man we can get, the better. But
if the citizens OF Terre Haute desire to have
the chief officer of the city, to be in truth
and in fact Mayor, then they should look
around them and select, without regard to
partisan preferences, the right man.
in all sincerity we must say, that our
city government was never more inefficient
than now. We do not know Of one single
officer who discharges his whsle duty
There seems to be no activity on part of
any of them They get their pay and we
the people know where it comes from. II
our city government is to continue as it
has been, it may become question of pub
lie importance to consider the question Of
getting along without any. A thorough
and efficient city government is certainly
desirable, but an inefficient, lame, ;nac.
tive and bungling one is a nuisance. But
the voters in Terre Haute are to blame
more than the officers. Why not select bet
ter men Why place in important posi-
tions men whose only qualification is, that
they may possibly exert certain political
influence. The city of Terre Haute has ar
rived at that period in her history when
she wants and ought TO demand an able,
efficient and active city government. Her
prosperity can be advanced materially by
inaugurating such system. Dismissing
on this occasion all partisan feeling. our
advice is, that the electors of this city
should select the proper mer, to fill the
important positions in their city govern
ment.

Pennsylvania by 1888 majority, the larg-
est ever obtained: and also compliments
Mr.. Schuyler Oolfax Of Indiana upon his
eminent success. In 1856 he was sent to
Congress by | ,036 majority, which had in.
creased in 1858 ID 1881, and in 1860 had

In the Third Congressional District in
Indiana, in 1855 Mr.. Dunn had plurality
over Judge Hughes of 97s. The vote of
Judge Hughes and Geo. w. Carr was some
four hundred more than the vote OF Mr..

to make this vote, and therefore think we
