KENTUCKY AID INDIANA TROOPS,

Tbs city has unfortunately for its CONNER
cial trade, a reputation at the South Of being
a Black-RepubHcan and abolition community.
This impression has been created By he facts
that its only two papers-ons a Dutch paper,
the organ of the German Re4-RsPubliesns, and
The other a Il natical Rspubico-L Lincoln sheet
beth Black-R Republican. Its nsyo-, toe, is a
rabid snt-slavsIyits its council has a major
fty Of German Of a deep-dyed Republican
hue. It's three banks are oficered by active
and ransing Republicans. Through he inau-
suce OF these powerful citizens, a grand and
ostentafious demonstration Of popular exllta-
tion was made over Inc triumph Of Lincoln, from
the account of which sent South by the sboIitiou
papers here, It appeared that for one night The
city was q grand scene Of %bonfres, ilumina-
sions and torch light professions Of men in
toxiestsd with wild, frantic Joy. Ia this ILL
advised proceeding, and more iniud.eiOrs,
noisy promulga'i ion Of it 10 t1e country, the
/ names OF the lending participants were
published and made conspicuous. L is
bat Just that the aiders and Promoters Of
N4aE AHaAlNALE EAAALasNAA ~ AAe A1A5a-
Of their 1eishbors and friends should be re-
nsmbere4 BY the South, sad be VISITED with
The commercial neglect and reputation which
their conduct and principles merit from the
people Of the slave States, on whose patron
| age they live and nave grown rich and Phar-
isaicslly intolerant- It is surprising that the
/ German manufacturers and mechanics here,
whose wares are principally sold in southern
markets, have proved the most uniaithful to
he constitutional rights Of their best Gus
fomeTs and friends; they are wsring upon an
] institution to which they are indebted for all
| their WI prosperity. But the large body Of
merchants ard dealers, and all the American
industrial classes are true In their devotion 70
the constitutional rights Of The soulh; and are
/ determined, so far ss they have power, that
/ full iastice shall be done 70 her. They are
dstermfned 10 resist with their lives, an ua-
warranted aggressiols through their boun-
/ dsrles. from the fsnatical hordes Of the North
upon their n~sighbors upon the southern shores
OF the Ouio.
In this county a regiment, consisting Of
nearly a thoussHd fine, vigorous young men

days ago, this regiment made q formal tender
Of it's services 70 the governor Of Kentucky
whenever needed, 70 protect The borders Of
their sister States and the homes Of theil
