Miscegenatioa III Harrison County

Several dsys ngo tne puarucuiars OF q
most revolving atiis came 10 our knowledge
cot go unnatural and disgusting were The
details TINT We could not credit hem. Yes
,erday. however, they were repeated to u.s.
and We presume there is not the leos, doutl
of their truth. We state briefly as follows:
Some months ago q welltodo and very
Respectable farmer. living about one mile
north OF LantsviIle. Harrison County, hired
us farm hand. negro. The farmer had a
daughter some eighteen years OF age, and
between her and the negro a warm friend
ship sprung mp. which soon ripened into q
most unnatural and criminal Intimacy.
AS long as i wps possible for her 10 do So
The girl concealed the evidence OF her shame
nnd degradation; but knowing tha, conceal.
ment would soon BE impossible, che went
TO her father and told him that ene would in
a short.time become u mother, and that his
hired man, the negro, was the father Of the
'lllegitimato offspring she expected 10 give
birth to.
Upon lenrning these facts The father grew
furious with anger, and swore he would kill
both bis daughter and the negro; and 10 this
end, we are told, he procured gun, loaded
il, and sought the opportunity to carry his
threat into execution.
Fearing the result Of her fathers anger,
the fallen and degraded woman, and her ne.
gro parnmour secreted themselves until
night set in, and then fed together, going
no one knows whittier. The affair is one Of
the most disgraceiul and hideous thu. has ever
taken place In this section OF Indiana. The
parents OF the girl are highly respectable.
She had oil the comforts Of good home,
and nothing short Of a naturally an totally
deproved nature could have induced her 10
commit 80 horrid and beastly a crime. She
is probably ere this, il she has any feeling
left, drinking Of the bitter cup OF sorrow her
wckedness has placed to her lips.

The radical party does not propose to di.
mnish the public debt. when it is feasible to
do SO and lessen public burdens which weigh
SO heavily upon the industry and prosperity
Of the Nation. The plan Of the radical
leaders is TO copy or adop, the financial pol.
icy Of Great Britain-a policy that threatens
to bankrupt that nation. All suggestions
from that quarter look to the funding of the
entire debt in forty year bonds, bo,h interest
and principal payable in gold. The sscer.
tanned deot is now bout 50 GOO 600 600 and
even if the interest, with the conse q. of the
creditors should be reduced to five per cent.
the annual gold interest would then amount
to $4,000 900, about two fold more than
the entire annual expenditures OF the last
Democratic administration. And il must
