The Spokesmen of the Party.

It is highly appropriate that the
party which has for its organ forger
and a defender of the Andersonville
atrocities, should chose for its cham
pions on the stump such infamous
men as Brick" PoMERoY. Our
people have just given to Governor
MORTON the grandest reception ever
rendered any man by the people of
this city. We are pleased to know
that there were hundreds of Demo
Gratis who were ready to do him honor
as faithful public servant. And
there are thousands of them who de-
spise and spit upon the ISLANDERS which
the vile sheet published in this city
has been asserting. 1t is meet that it
should be seconded in its work by
PoMERoY, who is to speak in this city
next week. But a few weeks ago,
commenting on the death of Senator
LANE of Kansas, be used this
language:
"There must have been a hob-nobbing
time when Charon ferried Lane over the
turbid Styx, and the shades of Brown, the
horse-thief, and Lincoln, the obscene jest
er and tyrant, met their brother Jim, the
border ruffian, upon the dark and gloomy
shores. IL must have been a sort of Fourth
of July festival, when the iIlustr1ous three
clasped hands in the presence of the as

dead and dying men, the wailing of wild

children. .tsaN a4N

The Constitutional Amendment is
the only Platform of the Union party.
1t is so moderate in its provisions
that it is drawing to it's support daily
the men of all parties. The N. Y.
Herald, and the Times, the Spring
field Republican, and other late inhu-
entail supporters of the President,
are advocating its adoption. 1t is the
correct basis of settlement of the
question of Reconstruction. Let it
then receive the support of every
loyal man at the polls on the second
Tuesday in October.

Moreau again I'M trouble.

Our Democratic friends will, posi-
bly,, remember, when reminded Of it,
that there was, lately in this region, a
certain person, called MoREAU, who
was held uplto the people as a gallant
soldier and a great light, to guide the
people to the truth. And they may
also remember how suddenly, one
fine morning, that great light was
''snuffed out by the publication of a
little official piece of information,
which seemed to be well understood
by the peoples. -f-
He departed from us suddenly, and
we did not know to what region he
had gone, until we found the follow
ing in the Cincinnati Commercial, from
it's Indianapolis correspondent:
CoPPERHEAD ORATOR soUELCHED.
The Copperheads are so eager for assist
ance, that whenever a recruit presents
himself who ever wore the Union blue
they force him upon the stump, with
out even looking into his record. Such
was the case with Major Will C. Moreau.
He was announced with a great flourish of
trumpets ana flaming hand-bills as a dis
tinguished soldier and patriot" &c. Voor-
hees escorted him over the First District,
but upon his arrival in Evansville. the
JOURNAL of that city was unkind enough
to publish an official order of the War De-
partment, dishonorably Diminishing the said
Moreau from the service, for having ten
dered his resignation while under charges
for obtaining money under false pretenses
and for conduct unbecoming an officer and
a gentleman, and for having twice alb
seconded from the Department OF the Cum
berland to avoid trial on the charges.
This was settler, and it was thought best
to transfer this valiant warrior to another
field of duty. Accordingly he was an
nounced for a speech in this city, on Fri
day evening last; and when the
time arrived a great noise was made;
but only about two hundred per-
sons in all assembled in the Circle to hear
him. He excused himself from address,
ing those in attendance, and appointed a
meeting for the next night at the hall of the
House of Representatives, but the Jour
nal of Saturday morning contained the
official order of the War Department,
previously published in Evansville. This
was too much. Moreau was squelched
and not allowed tospeak at the meeting he
had called, and Dave Gooding, President
Johnson's "Man Friday" was substituted,
much to the delight of the unterrifed in
attendance. David has come among us to
regulate affairs, and look up the fifty
thousand votes against the Radical party
that he promised President j Johnson would

quence of the refusal of the people of this
city 10 listen. to the tumble individual"
as he was swinging around the circle"
Rather guess David will have hard work
to find them in these parts. The people
care nothing for his master, and less for
him. INDIANA.

County treasurer.

There are two candidates for Coun-
ty Treasurer. One is a gallant SOL
der, who did good service for his
country, in the field, in putting down
the rebellion. The other not only
stayed at home during the war, but
was the bitter opponent of the Gov
eminent and the soldiers allithrough
the contest. The one is the nominee
of brave soldiers and loyal citizens;
the other is nominated by a party
which has nothing but treason
and sympathy with the rebels as its
record during the past five years. No
loyal man can vote for LUNKENHEIM-
Err and do his duty in this crisis,
when it is so imperatively demanded
that none but the faithful and tried
friends of the Union should hold any
office. There is nothing in him or in
the party, whose odium he bears, to
attract any Union man to him, but
everything, in political view, to re-
pei. His only hope of success is to
divide the Union vote. This he can
not do, He is nominated by the Cop
perheads, and to them he must look
for success. Col. RHEINLANDER, the
gallant soldier, and faithful officer,
will receive the solid support of his

An Evidence of Business.

One of the best evidences of the
revival and activity of business, is the
pressure which is now, and has been
for some weeks, made upon our Job
Office, for work, by the merchants of
Evansville and adjacent towns. Our
presses are being constantly in mo-
ton, and large orders are being turned
out hourly. But, with two floors full
of steam presses and a good supply of
material, the capacity Of the Office is
equal to the demand. There is no of
ce in the West better prepared to exc
cute Job-work, in good style and to
the entire satisfaction Of the business

great increase of fine work. Mer-

tractive style. We have in our speci-

4 Mercantile View,

The New York Economist, the
standard authority in the Dry Goods
Market of this country, says the effect
of the Maine and Vermont elections
has been to inspire greater confidence
in the country in the stability of our
National affairs, and gives greater
confidence to trade in that city. This
is no partisan opinion, but the state
ment of fact Of purely mercantile
paper, whose business it is to watch
closely the market, and to note the
changes in prices, and the causes of
them. And there is a good reason for
this. The only sure way to peace
and security to business and property,
is to stand firmly by the law-making
representatives of the people.
