The Voice Of Indiana.

A letter from Laporte, Indiana, to the
Chicago Times, dated Jan. 16, concludes as
follows
Indiana has spoken at her late State
Democratic Convention in language too
plain to be misunderstood, and we Douglas
Democrats feel as Moses did when standing
with the redeemed host of Israel on the
eastern bank of the Red Sea: I" the Lord has
triumphed nightly, the horse and the rider
has He drowned in the depth of the sea-"
The low, cunning, trickery of Bright, Fitch,
Robinson & Co., have been met and van
quished, and they have been driven back to
their dens of pollution, and the glorious ban
ner of true Democracy now floats in the
breeze; emblazoned upon its ample folds is
the name of that mighty Democratic chief
tain, Stephen A. Douglas. Hurrah for
Indiana 1t is said that the last that was
seen of Jesse D. Bright was on the night of
the 18th inst, at about II o'clock; he was
then standing on the steps of the capitol,
wrapped in his mantle, and singing to him.
self:
81 feel like one who treads alone,
Some banquet hall deserted;
Whose lights are fled, whose garlands dead
And all but me departed"

Louisiana Legislature.

NEW ORLEANS Jan. 19.-Judge Caleb
granted to-day an injunction in favor of
Horace H. Day, against 81 firms, restrict
ing them from selling corrugated elastic
rubber goods.
In the Louisiana Legislature to-day, the
Governors message was read. 1t recon-
mends that the State be prepared to meet
her sister States of the South in Convention,
in case Of certain contingencies. Favors
retaliation upon the hostility of the North
by licensing and inficting discrimination
against Northern goods amounting to an
absolute prohibition.
The House passed joint resolution,
declaring the Harper's Ferry affair an
attack on the rights and privileges of the
South, and alleging that the hostility of the
North and the election OF q Republican
President, will cause a dissolution of the
Union.

F1RE.-The building occupied by Mr.. G.
G.. Goliath, st. Cloud, was destoyed by fire
on the night of the goth ultimo, together
with his entire stock OF goods, consisting of
the largest and best assortment of boots and
shoes ever brought into this market. Mr.
Goliath left his store about four o'clock in
the afternoon-the building was seen about
eleven o'clock at night, With no signs of
Gre-yet at daylight it was in ashes. When,
after so late an hour as eleven O'Clock at
night, and how the fire originated, yet re.
mains mystery to all. We are informed
by Mr.. G. that his stock was insured for
two thirds its value. His stock he estimated
at $4,000. Nothing was saved. All bis
books and clothing were destroyed. We
are pleased to learn from Mr.. @. that be
will open another store in the same line, at
st Cloud, in a month or two. He is an
honorable business man, and we are gratiied
to know that it is his intention to resume
business in our vicinity so soon. A good

A CAUTION TO CLERGYMEN.-Rev.A A. S.
Finch publishes in the Brockport advertiser
a card of warning to the public, and his
brethren, the clergy, in particular, against
a woman whom he married early last fall,
and who has since deserted and ruined him.
He explains how his ruin was accomplished.
While attending the Brockport camp meet
ing, woman, small in stature, wearing
specs, and prepossessing in appearance, ap-
peared, pursued him in carriage, told him
OF her esteem and how much she was worth,
and induced him to marry her. He con-
sented, the knot was tied, and she, having
accomplished bis ruin, forsook him, probably
to find another victim. Mr.. Finch asserts
in his card that this woman had served two
men, at least, in the same way before-oue
residing at Bellville, G. W.; the other in
Wisconsin. The Wisconsin man she left in
destitute condition, with three children to
provide for. Lest she may infict similar
outrages upon others of our sex we give this
much publicity to the statement. Clergy
men who may be single-susceptible to the
influences of the sex, to the Establishments
of fortune-should beware of females small
in stature, prepossessing in appearance,
wearing specs, pretending to the possession
of great wealth, and who pursue men in car
riages to effect their ruin !-Rochester Union.

PICCOLoMINI A PATRIoT.-A private let
ter from Florence contains tie following
anecdote of Nil. Piccolomini
In each town throughout the country
subscriptions have been opened for CARR.
baldi, to supply him with funds to recon-
mence, if necessary, the war in the spring.
These are most successful; for the people
answer the call on them with the most ca
ger alacrity. National concerts are given
everywhere. The one we had last Sunday
was the most magnificent and stirring sight
l ever beheld. Imagine theater almost as
large as St. Georges hall, Liverpool, cram
undetermined to an extent that almost
created fear as to the solidity of the build
ing. The singers were of the first order,
and entered into the spirit of the scene, of
course giving their services gratis. The
enthusiasm of the public passed all bounds
all were applauded 0utroace, and, for my
self, thought they would have devoured
me. Their shouts, cries and recalls were
enough to bewider me. But the great fea-
ture of the evening was little Piccolomini,
who, with her usual tact, we'll knowing an
Italian audience, refused to sing anything
but the national hymn, written for the occa-
sion, securing applause through the senti-
ments it excited.
But one must do her justice +; she sang
with her little voice in way that made
ones blood run cold and thrill with emo
ton and, whether she really felt it or not
she seemed inspired with the noblest feel
ings that prevail at present. Instead of
merely singing as at a concert, with the
music in her hand, she made scene of it,
regularly acting it, and had the stage ar
ranged with the chorus at the back, and two
men in the centre, each holding the flag OF
independence she walked about seized
the fag-she tossed her little head and
arms about with an energy, and sang with
fire and soul, that produced an electric
effect. The enthusiasm of the public was
raised to frantic pitch cries of ViUe
Garibaldi " " Vive Vittorio Emmanuel"
resounded through the house, ladies, even
men, sobbing with emotion. Had the grand
duke been in Florence that night, his life
would have been in peril, for at the words,
"And from our land the stranger shall fly"
so great was the effect that poinard
seemed to glimmer in each eye. 1 was my
self so moved, and so enchanted with Pic.
coIomini that could not resist giving her
a kiss when she came of, to which she sub.
mitted most gracefully, for she is even more
charming off the stage than on it.

call him. My mother was there. l went
down and accused him of insulting me.
How's that ?" "Sit down and 1 will tell
you" told him, and he denied it. l said
doctor, do you dare deny it Remember
1 am virtuous woman, and my affidavit
will be taken before Doctors" He said,
II know that, now don't be in a hurry"
I then told over before my mother, and, in
the hearing of four others, all that he had
said and done, which he acknowledged, and
humbly apologized for it. told him, " No;
your apologies 1 don't regard l throw them
at my feet. am now going to make my
resentment"
Then applied the butt of the cowhide
on him, be putting up his arm to defend his
head. 1 tried to lash him in the face, but
he covered it with his hands. l beat him
till he put them under his arms, and rose to
his feet. He set still for about three min
utes, pale and trembling, merely saying are
you crazy?" He tried to get hold of me,
when 1 said, CDR. s., don't you put
your hands on me. Here are plenty of wit
nesses" Then he took his hat or cap and
said, let me get out" went to the front
door, opened it, and tried to get him out,
as 1 wished to whip him down the stoop.
He would not 60 out that way, and turned
down the basement stairs. l told him to
leave the house and never come in it again.
At this time my sister threw the flour on
him, and he pulled hard to clear it from his
face. We could not help his going down
stairs and out the basement door, but 1
whipped him severely as he was going out
of the yard.
In regard to the enormous doctor bill !;
he visited my sick child last fall about fifteen
times. When 1 went South in October l
requested him to hand in his BILL as wished
to settle it. He said g No; it was but a
trife; be didn't want it, and would't do it,"
1 insisted, but could not get it. This, with
the visits to my husband during the last
three weeks, is all that l owe for. This
would have been paid before, had he allowed
it. This is correct statement of facts.

The following is the statement of the
witnesses to the cowhiding affair in the par.
lor, and the Touring in the hall
We were in the parlors of Mr.. Kings on
Thursday last, and saw Mrs. Ewing cowhide
DIR. Smith. We also heard her tell him the
whole of the language and actions which
had taken place, as made in her statement
above; heard him acknowledge them to be
so, and apologize. We also saw the flour
thrown upon him, and him whipped in the
yard.
