Look Ont.

An Indianapolis report says that
w. III. TALBOT, Chairman of the
Copperhead State Central Committee,
has declared that he would give fif-
teen thousand dollars to carry the
Legislature this Fall for the Copper
heads. Mr.. TALBOT, it will be re-
membered, was President of the Board
of Sinking Fund Commissioners,
which has control of the School Funds
Of the State While occupying that
position, he procured a large amount of
the funds for well known rebel firm in
New York, by the name of Lyons &
Co., to use in gold specializing opera
tons, in the profits of which, no
doubt, Mr.. TALBOT was greatly inter
ested. LYONS & Co., broke up about
the time the rebellion broke down, and
the School Fund is several thousand
dollars short. Mr.. TALBOT is inter-
ested in getting Legislature that will
relieve him of all responsibility for
the money that is thus taken from the
poor children of the State, and we
dare say he could afford to pay even
more than $15, 900 to secure that end.
The Union men of the State and those
interested in the Schools, must keep
their eyes open on the Legislature.
The Copperheads will sacrifice every
thing else to secure majority in that
body. We must nominate our very
best men, and then roll up our sleeves
and go to work in earnest. A little
exertion will bring JUS triumph. Spread
the facts before the people and all
will come out right Their intelli-
gence and honesty will secure the
right kind of voting.

Conservative Patriotism.

The Frederick (Md) Examiner, in
giving some incidents Of a Conser-
vative meeting lately held at that
place, relates the following:
AS one of the " Conservatives" bearing
in his hand the emblem of our country's
nationality, the glorious old Stars and
Stripes, was on his way from the meeting
at the court house yard, he was accosted by
another of the "disfranchised "and would
be reconstructed patriots (?) with =
E g What are you going to do with that?"
His response was I'U try and trade it OF
for couple Of glasses Of oohisky." His COM
panion then remarked You better tear
the dam'd thing up!"
The leading speaker at the meeting
at which, these patriots figured was
MONTGOMERY BLAIR.
The editor of the EcamiRer, among
some other remarks in reference to
one of the delegations as it arrived,
said:
We saw in this delegation men fresh
from the Rebel army, marching under the
glorious stars and Stripes which they
helped to tie to horses tails and trail in
the dust in our streets in September, 1852.

THE Richmond Wing is out in OPP
position to emigration from the North
ern States and the introduction of
Northern capital. 1t says:
Alabama, within one year of peace, be-
gins with five thousand Northern cotton
planters. 1t is frightful to think where she
VIII end. There is not single Southern
State in which this process this fatal pro-
cess of New England colonization, is not
going on. We must stop it, and, from this
hour, we must resolve to stop 1t, before it
enwraps and brushes us in its anaconda
folds. We do not mean that it must be
stopped by resort to violence or to any
understandable means, but by refusing, as
we have the right to do, to sell our lands or
any part of them, or lease or tenant them
out to radical enemies of the South"
It's programme is found in the fol-
lowing paragraph:
We would not build a Chinese wall
around the South and exclude everybody.
Far from it. The influence of this journal
is zeaIously welded in promoting imrni-
grafton, and encouraging the Introduction
of capital. Our two wants are population
anu CttpiUai-lot' hoWSNeIs ftctutcut Elol2nt0-
ton and capital. They would be our ruin.
Nor would the negroes fare any better un-
der it than the whites. They would be
compelled to work harder than they ever
worked before, and would be cheated out
of all their earnings. Our advice to
Southern land owners is 10 hold on to their
lands and submit to any hardshfps or p1'iua-
tons rather than part aoith them. Ii COM
PEELED to sell a portion in order 20 be en-
abled to retain the remainderIet them make

In other words, nobody must be al
lowed to buy land who does not
pledge himself, in advance, to vote as
the recent Shareholders dictate. That
will make things lovely.
