/ What the Germans Ih1mk OF Law.
We call the attention of cur readers to
the subjoined article, translated from the
I Daily I'o5hsJote of yesterday, which will
give them an idea Of the manner in which
Judge Laws nomination is received by the
Germans Of this city. The T0JhsJote IS the
only German paper in this part of Indiana,
and has always been devoted to the interests
of the Democracy; and it would hardly
take the stand it has without being support
cd by the German sentiment. The most
ardent friends of Judge Hovey two years
ago, were the Germans of Yanderburgh
county, and well do they remember the
treachery OF john LAW toward their can
didate. lie reaps the fruits of his double
dealing now, and will have the seal placed
upon this act next October
From the ToIlsJotc.
THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION AT PRINCE
ToE.-The last Democratic Convention held
at PrinctnH has clearly shown the influence
of the two Pachas of Indiana. The whole
Convention proved - be made up by the
higher instructions of Messrs. Bright and
Fitch, and to the principal actors their parts
of puppet-men were specifically marked out.
This is clearly shown IL the election Of
Charles DENLY as President of the Conven-
ton. From the beginning there was hos
tile feeling against Douglas.
OF tie three candidates, Law, Miller and
Niblack, whose devout attachment to the
Administration no seusible man has doubt
ed, Law was chosen because he, as the most
obedient of the obedent, gave the best guar
anty for submission to the orders of the
Pachas. And in fact Mr. Law, who, owing
to his Inconsistency, is suitable for anything
except Il representative of the people, is en-
inently fit to be an obedient servant of
Messr5. Bright and Fitch. \ weaker polit- /
icnI weather-cOck than Mr.. Law, it would |
be hard to find in the whole State. His /
want of political character has become a |
proverb OF late years. When he received |
the first news of the passage OF the English |
Bill, he threw down the paper in the great
est Indignation, and exclaimed that there /
was no spark of honesty left i'll Congress
He accordingly visited Douglas and satisfied
himself of Douglass friendship, and prom
ised TO work for his principles. Owing to
the encouragement given by him, Hovey, an
anti -Lecomptonite, came out as an opponent
to Mr.. Niblack but when Joe Lane, the
poodle-dog of the Administration, WAS sent
here TO defend the Lecompton swindle, Law
suffered himself to be influenced 10y certain
promises to turn the cold shoulder on Ho-
vey, and to stump for the candidate Of the
LecOmpton swindle, and to vote for him.
The circuit which this splendid pair made
at that time, has indeLbly impressed upon
them the stamp Of disgrace ana inconsistent
cy in the eyes of all thinking and consistent
men
man like Law, who suffered himself to
be employed to exact such apoliticAl crime rs
The Lecompton swindle, and VINO turned tie
,old shoulder on his friend Hovey, when
more favorable promises were made to him
rom another quaIter-such man was Tie
chosen one of the Bright and Fitch clique.
Such man viii indeed prove himself an
,beaient instrument in the hands of those
ly whose instruction he was nominated, but
Iot representative of the rights and vel
are of the people. We hope, how ever that
he people have not forgotten how this man
las acted, and we trust that no honest man
will give his vote for boot black of the
4 Administration and political weather cock.
