COLONIZATION.

The Richmond Palladium asks us
if we are not afraid, in expressing
ourselves in favor of colonization,
that we will incur the displeasure Of
Geo. W. Julian, and Of favoring the
bred Scott decision, and how we
dare express opinions of our own on
this vexed question. We answer the
Palladium that we belong to no man,
neither is the Journal the organ of
any man. We profess to advocate
the great principles of the Union
party, as We belong to that organiza-
ton, and as such we discuss these
principles as best we can with the
light that is before US, ''haying no
friends to reward, and no enemies to
punish" 1t is not with men, but
principles, that we deal, ss we desire
to build up and sustain q great party,
founGed upon the principles Of jus
tice. Therefore we advocated colo
nization. The Union party is a new
organization, formed out of the Gle
ments Of three party organizations,
for the purpose of crushing the slave
holders rebellion, since the crushing
OF which, new questions have arisen,
which must be met We can not
close our eyes to the fact that the
result of the war has been the free
ing of four millions of slaves, and
that these people must occupy some
position in this Government. The
question then is, what shall that po-
titioL be. Three conditions are be

what bis motives are, but, whatever
they may be, some Of the arguments
will commend themselves rs worthy
OF consideration The whole letter
breathes n spirit Of resignation and
desire to accept the condition of
things brought about by the war, and
Willingness to do right in the future.
The letter can be read with profit by
all those who desire 20 breed difficult
" in the Union party. Let all read
il, and see what distinguished rebel
Senator is willing to do for the sake
Of the future of the people and the
Government.

TURSPIKE.S.

During the last session of the In
diana State Legislature, we noticed
the fact that q law had been enacted
authorizing the Board of County
Commissioners to organize turnpike
or plankroad companies. At the
time we referred to the matter, we
had not examined the law, and could
not, therefore, speak of it rs we de-
sired to; but since then we have eX
amined its provisions, and we think
it is all that farmers could desire,
who wish to build turnpikes. BY this
law, all persons who own real estate
within three fourths Of one mile Of
the line OF road must bear their part.
Before the Board doing county bust
ness is authorized to grant such road
or authorize an organization, there
must be petition from any number
of persons owning more than three
tiiths of the amount Of the real
estate, as shown by the books of the
County Auditor, within three -fourths
Of one mile on each side-giving the
starting point, terminus, distance in
miles, the highway or route where
the road is to be constructed. Then,
if the Board deem it a road Of pub
lie utility, they shall grant the appli-
cation, after which the persons
making the application can organize
and elect officers and make such by
laws and rules as are necessary.
A tax is assessed on the real estate
within the limits above specified, ac-
cording to value of the property, to
be collected by the County Treasur-
err, TO build the road. The tax as
sessed to he divided into three in
stallments, to be paid in one, two
and three years from the day of filing
the estimate of the cost Of til
road. Voluntary subscriptions car
be taken, which will accrue to the
benefit of tax payers in proportion
TO the amount OF their assessments
We think, now. farmers will have
no right to complain of bad roads
for here is q plan to reach all per.
sous. There have always been
complaints that a rich neIshbor, who
was more interested, because he
owned more real estate than some
others, would DO nothing. Now
there is an opportunity to make him
do his part, and we trust there will
be several organizations in this coun-
ty IN the next month. Let it not be
said that Randolph county has no
roads. Take steps to organize i'm
mediately.

in favor Of doin on. vet IT may
lie j1diclous toMmit 10 matters
that do not please rs, FOR tie sake OF
ultimate success in the great reforms
which we have begun. and the tri
umph o. tie principles cnunciated
in the Declaration Of American In
dependence. The present j, fraught
with great interest % ms IS people
\ great rebellion was created, and
after desperate struggle, was over
thrown; the people Of nearly half the
States were engaged in il; they have
been conqucred-but not subducd.
They arc hostile TO the Government,
and 60 the party in power, and in the
reorganization OF these States and
the settlement Of ali the pending
questions, there may be, indeed there
will be, difference of opinion exist
ing between the people as to the best
method. The great Union party,
who opposed the rebellion. was com
posed OF men Of All political and re
ligiOus faiths. THIS combination
was necessary to success, and, to at
tain it, politics were thrown aside,
and a compromise platform, en-
bracing the single idea Of crushing
che rebellion, using every means
within the power of the Government.
The fighting has ceased, but the war
is not over; there is now as great a
necessity for this combination of all
the loyal men as there was before the
cessation OF actual hostilities-for
we may, by divisions, allow the
rebels to do by the ballot what they
failed to accomplish by arms. Sup
pose, by division, the present opro-
sition should gain majority in Con-
gress, and elect the next President,
what would be the result? We sub
mit If il would not be the reputation
Of the Government debt and the
liquidation OF the rebel debt; besides,
it would place all the resources of
the Government in the hands of the
late rebels; the army, the navy,
forts, arsenals and ordnance stores.
would oil he subject 70 their com
Inands. We think, in looking at
this matter as it would be in case of
a division of the Union party, it is
the duty of Union men 10 not press
questions that are repugnant to any
class of loyal men, if it would bring
about separation of the various
elements which went to make up the
Union party. We can not expect to
accomplish all the great reforms in
day. If President Lincoln had is
sued and given to the country his
emancipation proclamation at his
first annual message to Congress,
slavery would have had firmer hold
ON American soil to-day, than before
the war 1t was given just when
the people were willing to submit,
or when they called for 1T. So we
should move in other great reforms.
Intelligent men, and all others. must
be first convinced that there is n ne
cessity for reform, and if there is q
prejudice, it must first be broken
down. Politicians can not accom-
plish these great reforms, unless
the people will GO with them, any
more than can Generals put down &
rebellion without men to assist them

The LAND TO LIVE IN.-The returns oil
the income tar make an interesting reve-
lation of the wealth Of the country aud its
general distribution. The number Of men
who enjoy fortunes i probably greater 10
this country than any othet10n the globe
and, iu many instances, the amount is
equal to those OF old aristocratic hoqfos in
England In New York. according % the
Herald, there is one gentleman enjoying
an income Of million, who came to this
country poor Isish boy another, who
has an income Of three quarters II . mil
lion, the founder Of whose family came
here from Germany . peunyless youth
and yet another, with an income of half
. million, who commenced life a. White
hail bostman.
This is the popularity of American
wealth. 1t is seldom descended from ones
ancestors, but it is the result Of individu-
al industry aud ssgacity. There arc no
bars here to the exercise of the talents
which command wealth, and in the race
for it. the shoe black has as good chance
as the merchant, if he has trained bis
thoughts, educated his mind, practices
the industry and enterprise, and exercises
the forethought which are necessary to its
successful accumulation. This equality
j, what makes country prosperous
