tThe Indianapolis Herald " comes
down " on the Chicago Times for its
article in favor of negro suffrage; ac-
cuses the Times editor of insanity,
and asks the Democracy to pray for
; him
We suppose the Chicago Times has
got what il was fishing for when it
came out in advocacy Of negro suf-

little breeze they have stirred up, and
that, rs soon as il subsidies, they will
have some new sensation to spring
upon an expectant wofld.-Neao At
