Another Lie.

The Journal seeks TO convey the impression
that the Convention refused to hear Colonel DUS-
HAM, on the second day of its session. "say few
words in behalf of our army and the war" Col.
DUSHAM spoke on the first day of the Conven-
ton and was listened to with marked attention.
just previous to the final adjournment, after the
business Of the Convention had been completed,
and we believe after motion had been made to
adjourn, Colonel ID. was called for. He asked
the mover of the resolution Mr.. CHAPxAS) to
withdraw it to give him an opportunity to say
few words. This request was refused, Mr.. G.
giving a reason that quite anumber of dele
gates were anxious to leave on the noon trains.
The question of adjournment put to the Con-
veution and il was almost unanimously voted
down. as a compliment to Col DUSHAM, who
handsomely acknowledged il, and in addition
briefly expressed the views that he desired to i'm
press upon the Convention in the eloquent and
feicitOus manner which characterizes his orator.
cal efforts As the Journal says. Colonel
DUNLAP is "a prominent and able Democrat"
"soon to be summoned to bloody conflict, in,
which he must peril his life for the country"
Col DUNBAR well appreciates that no such peril
for his country will ever be assumed by the editor
of the Journal, and no man IN Indiana holds the
party represented by the J9urnol. who brought
the issue upon the country which makes such
perils necessary, in greater detestation.

Not an Honest Man.

Mr.. HsSDRIcKs in his speech at the State Con-
vention in denouncng the proven corruptions Of
those in power, expressed his satisfaction in
making one exception He said the official con-
duct of the Secretary of the Interior had left no
stain upon his personal integrity. and that man
was from Indiana. The Journal expresses its
establishment that honorable mention can be made
of one member of the Cabinet. II says il is
striking exception" and asks "what does it
meanf" Corrupt indeed must be the Adthinis-
tratiOn when one Of its organs is surprised that
one of its members has not been proven dis
honest man.

why the Negiect.

Massachusetts, furnishing only about half as
many soldiers as Indiana, has two Major Gene
rails for the volunteer service. Why are the
claims of Indiana ignored? Why this seeming
neglect? Some time ago the President deter
mined to give the appointment to Gen. MoRRls,

The state adm;utstratioy.

The Journal wonders why not one word was
said in the resolutions of the Democratic State
Convention about the Republican State Admin
istration. Some of the most influential members
of the Republican party charges it with gross
corruption and disregard of law Such being
the case, the Convention had no disposition to in
terfere in this family quarrel, but left the matter
to be settled by the Republicans. If Governor
MoRroS will call an extra session of the Legis-
lature that issue will be made by the Republicans
themselves. We venture the opinion that Re-
publican State Convention would not commit the
party by an endorsement of the honesty and purity
Of the State Administration.

"wnere .. the Eailure,,,

The Journal objects to the seventh resolution
passed by the Democratic State Convention,
which reads as follows:
Z. That the Republican party has fully demon
strated its inability TO conduct the Government
through its present difficulties
That print says that the present difficulties of
the Government" must mean the war, and that it
is Gen. MCCLELLAN and the army who are Ito
bring the Government safe out ofthis difficulty If
IL ever gets out" This ism singular admission,
Ii expresses a doubt whether we shall ever Get
out of our present difficulties. Has the Presi-
dent responsibility in the present crisis of the
country Is he not Commandment. Chief of the
army and navyf Gen. McCLKLLAs holds his po-
siton at the will Of the President and if he is in
efficient or incapable Mr.. LIScoLs is responsible
for continuing him in the command of the army
Is there no responsibility upon the part Of the
members Of the Cabinet in our present difficult
tiesiv The Republicans have large majority
in both branches Of Congress, and is there no re
spousibity for the present difficulties in that
branch of the Government Every branch Of
the National Government and the Governments
Of all the Northern States. except Rhode Island,
are under the control of the Republican party,
yet the Journal pIaces the entire responsibility of
bringing the Government safe out Of It's present
difficulties. 'if il ever gets OUT" and we pre-
sumo likewise the imbscility, ineficiency and
rascssies which has characterized the Administra-
ton Of the party in power, upon Gen. MccLxLLAs,
an officer who is subordinate to the President, to
the Cabinet and to Congress. Are the army and

General Mcclellan responsible for the vacilla-

sble for the stupendous frauds and tbieving under
the present Administration which have been de-
veloped by the reports Of the Congressional In
vestgating Committee, most of which occurred
right under the eyes Of the President and through
the agency of men in power. whom he continues
in Officer No Democratic paper has equaled the
Journal in its foundations Of the Admnstra-
ton for its inefRciency and its inability TO cope
with the leaders Of the Southern rebellion. If
the army and General MCCLELLAN irresponsible
for the failure, why is it that the Journal has
teemed with foul abuse Of the Administration for
that which it has no responsibility The resolu-
ton to which the Journal objects is but retera-
ton of what It has often charged-the inability
of the Republican party to conduct the Govern
ment through its present difficulties. And in the
article upon which we are commenting. by stating
that 1.-The army is to bring the Government safe
out Of this difficulty if il ever gets out" it
knowIedges that the Republican party is unable
to carry the country safely through the crisis. If
General McCLELLAs. "who directs the army is
responsible for conducting the Government
through its present difficulties. the whole power
and direction of the Government should be placed
in bis hands And if the Democrats who
have undertaken to assist the Govern
ment" are to be made responsible for
the Administration Of the Government
they should not be hampered by the action of the
President, the Cabinet and Congress. The army
and the Democrats who are in it to assist the
Government can not be held accountable for the
failures that have and that may occur, so long as
the Republican party are in power and attempt to
conduct il where is the failures" inquiries the
Journal. What says Mr.. HALE, the Senator

Republican party2 In his place in the Senate on

The Bright case.

In Mr.. Bright's case, the committee finding no
evidence of disloyalty, have agreed to report ia
vorably.
So say the special Washington dispatches to
New York Tribune. What will the indianapolis
Journal say nowi 1t has denounced Mr. BRIGHT
as traitor and demanded his expulsion from the
Senate. After thorough Investigation a COM
mittee of Republicans report that they can not
find any evidence of disloyalty against him. Du-
ring the canvass of 1850 the Journal was the
apologist of Mr. BRreRr. 1t treated him with the
utmost courtesy and even did not allude to him
as the bogus" Senator. 1t found no fault then
with the political principles he entertained and ad
vocated. Now, for entertaining the same
views and adhering to them, the Journal
charges HIM with treason. In 1860 the
Journal, for partisan considerations and for
party ends recognized BRreHr as the patriot and
denounced DoUGLAs as thedemagogue. In 1862,
for similar purposes. it sheds crocodile tears over
the grave of DoUGLAs and pours out the walls of
its indignation upon the head of BRIGHr We
cannot divine whether the journals present
course towards Mr.. BRIeHr is influenced by ny
pocrisy and policy or partisan hate. The former
consideration probably influences it. While
abusing him with apparent sincerity it does all in
its power to give his position significance by iden
tifyng him with the important public movements
OF the day. We are inclined to think that such
is its object, for it well knows that il cannot nure
any movement by associating Mr. BRIGHT with it,
but for undeveloped consideration it seeks to
advance his interests by endeavoring to create
the impression that he vet yields powerful po-
lftical influence. The course of the Journal in
1850 toward Mr.. BRIGHr will justify the common
impression that it's yet in his pay, and is faith
fully fulfilling its contract. We expect that the
Journal, if the remarks we have made do not
deter it. will in few days back down from its
professed hostility to Mr.. BRIGHT with all the
ease that it ate its own words i'm the SLIDELL and
Mason affair. At all events, lis course will bear
watching by honest Republicans.

Don't Like II.

The Republican central organ is furious upon
the action Of the Democratic State Convention
The more yirulent the abuse of that corrupt and
dishonest sheet, the greater will be the confidence
of the people of Indiana in the wisdom and
sagacily OF the Convention, and that it took a
correct view of public affairs. Praise from that
source would create a just suspicion that it bad
committed an error, and that it had some com
plicity with the corruptionsof the party in power
