Arkansas true Democrat., 1860-11-03

Who is responsible for the result of the Indiana elections?
 Hon. R. w. Thompson, who has received the compliments of the Louisville Journal during this canvass--who represented his party in the Baltimore convention--who is recognized as man of ability and the leader of the Bell cause in Indiana, wrote letter in reply to Crittenden < Co.,, dated the 4th inst, and published throughout the country, from which we make the follow ing extract:
 Every body must see thatit Will do Douglas no good in this State merely to vote for Hendricks. We will have to vote for him, too, to effect the object desired by our kind friends in Kentucky. Can we do that with honor? We have some men in our ranks who have been democrats, and who have acted with that party, who can do so without feeling any compunction. But if any of those who have been whiQs from honest conviction can do so, they and have not learned whiggery alike. will not do it if every other man in the State does. helped to nominate Mr. Bell, and shall vote for him. and nobody else Now, if all the Bell men in the State do so, Doug las will have just as many votes, whether Hendricks or Lane is elected Governor.

 But we do gain something by Lane's election in my judgment, and. therefore, l shall vote for him, He is an old aobaq, educated in the faith as taught by Henry Clay. He, and have fought so many whig battles together, that I think know all the impulses and inclinations of his mind. His election, therefore, will, upon all the issues of the old parties, revive the spirit of ,ehigqery, for which l have been all the time laboring. That will be some- thing E g5aiued." g .sasi.d1t
 Jas. G. Bryant, member of the Exec ,t;ya Committee of the Constitutiona I Union party of Indiana, lately published an address to the people, in reply to Crit tenden & Co.,, from which we quote the following: ,-'.fll upl9 ,7i
 ~ |" Let me ask you what is to be gained by the election of Hendricks? You will then have man for Governor who voted for the repeal of the Missouri Compromise which was the canse of the formation of the Republican party. l am satisfied that under no circumstances can the Bell men of Indiana be benefited by the election of the democratic State tieket.''' -4t sa
 In reference to the State of Indiana we have the concurrent testimony of both or gans of the opposition in this State, that the larger portion of Bell men voted straight for the black republican candidate. Here is what the Louisville Democrat of the 12th inst, says: ts- - C In the last election, large number of the Bell men, in accordance with their prin- ciples voted for Hendricks, a still larger number, notwithstanding the exertions of
