FORTRESS MONROE, July BENTON
Harrison, formerly priya tie secretary. and
Geo. W. Brown, one of the counsel of Mr..
Davis, arrived here this morning. They
spent the day with Mr.. Davis and his fans
lily. The visit IS supposed to be merely of
a friendly nature. They left to>night for
Balti more.
The friends of Mr.. Davis are visiting
him daily, coming AMI going unobrrusively
This precludes the idea of any significance
being attached to them.

alton, blu. the first six months of its exist

hundred and forty thousand being amply
secured, and made payable on call

established agencies in FIVE hundred cities
and towns of the Great West, and is pro-

ensuing year. 1t was recently officially
visited by the Insurance Commissioner OF

We denied in our issue two weeks since
that Mr.. How had charged Mr. Case with
being a defaulter to the Agricultural So
ciety, and asserted that tho lie was first
concocted aud circulated by republicans.
The Republican reiterates the charge and
says that Mr.. How "made it his business
to bring the matter to the attention of the
Agricultural Society, and he then volun-
teered to secure the amount" That paper
then goes. on to charge Mr.. How with
being bloody Know Nothing" and
adds that "Mr. How, up to the time of the
convention was the only one concerned in
securing Mr. Cases defeat" The editor
sbeo admits that he does "not positively
know that Dir. II. circulated the report,
but it would seem altogether probable that
he did"
Here is palpable admissios that the
editor Of the Republican knew nothing of
what he was writing about, but like a

Will Our Legislature be Con
Vencd.

The amendment to the Constitution.
proposed by the trump now in session at
Washington, which we have heretofore re-
ferred to, is now awaiting the rattle alton
of the requisite number Of States to become
a part of the fundamental law of the land ),
and the question arises in our State wheth>
or Gov. Morton Ii call an extra session
of the legislature to take action on the sub
Ject, or await the meeting of the regular ses-
sion. In many States an extra session will
be called, but we trust such will not be the
case in ours. We think it will not. We
do net think Gov. Morton is so totally in
different to public opinion, all sense of pro-
prlety and decency as to heap upon the
people of Indiana this additional outrage
The extra session cannot be he'll at an
expense ofless than two hundred thousand
dollars, and when held cannot and will not
express the voice ofthc people The issue
made by this ''sum of all villainies" has
never been presented to the people of our
State, and when presented will never be
Endorsed by them, though without ques-
ton if a special session is convened the
amendment will be adopted.
We warn the high Priests Of abolition
opposition that when they trample the
rights of the people under their feet, they
do it at their peril, and viii awaken storm
of popular indignation which will hurry
them at frightful speed into the bottomless
pit of infamy from which there is no res
direction. Let the question be made an
issue in the approaching campaign, and if
the people approve and indorse the action
of the trump" it will then be time enough
TO fasten this additional iniamy upon them
The expense of an extra session of the
Legislature will thus be saved to the State
and the sense of the people can be obtained
relative to the propriety of the proposed
iniquity. No extra session, say we, for the
purpose of forestallif.e public opinion.
