Letter from Indianapolis.

Correspondence Of the Indiana Amerisan.l
INDIANAPOLIS, AUG. 10Th.
Mr.. Editor,-Still the sound yibrates
through the city for Grant & Colhx, and
the enthusiasm has greatly increased
since the trip 10 Martinsville. There
seems TO be kind Of a Gordan knot
binding the Fighting Boys in Blue, aud
upon last Wednesday about 5000 turned
out to listen to true doctrine. The wide
sea Of red caps spoke in clear tones Of
the coming election.
The iast piece Of Democratic gossip is
the riot in the Fourth Ward, 1t was a
disgsacefdl aiflir, to say the least of it..
The Democrats have been holding their
meeting near saloon'kcpt by tive negroes,
and upon last Tuesday night, while the
Great Dick Ryan was speaking, some of
the White Boys in Blue kicked up muss
with the saloon-keepers. After sounding
the watch word, they event for the
saloon" and in the FIRST round one Of the
officers of the White Boys in Blue was
badly hurt, having received wound on
the back Of the head. Another was
wounded by spent ball. The Seymour
badge be wore saved s.liie. The button
that is over the heart was shot through,
aud the bullet just pierced his chest.
After they had torn out the saloon, they
started down the street and passed the
Negro Baptist Church, where cheers arose
for Grant X Collax. Upon this the ex.
cited w. Is. in Il. commenced the attack,
aud after yelling for some two or three
hours, they left the scene Of "bloodshed,"
and, all covered with glory. they sought
"their wives and children.
Our city is improving The Skating
Rink is under head way, aud promises to
be one Of the finest in the West The
association is composed Of the most noble
men Of our city, aud they are determined
to make it pecuniary success. 1t is To-
Gated on tie corner Of Maryland and
Tennessee SITS, and covers hall square.
Another improvement is tie A. Il.
Church under the charge Of that talented,
good aud energetic Christian, &. n. Sims.
BY his untirIug efforts he has been able
to commence u church that will cost about
$4,000, and situated in the most pleasant
part of the town. indianapolis feels the
power of this man.

tional amendments which have been made
necessary by himself and his "erring
brethren" re,e tI stfa3s
Judge Reid, we suppose, lie opposed to
paying back the money that the Govern

the brave Union men while they whipped
him and his like North and South. e'aa
Judge Reid is opposed to the impeach-
ment Of a wicked Presidents, ssd so was
the New York World and all Of the whisk y
thieves that belonged to the "ring."
Judge Reid is opposed to Congress
making the necessary laws to protect the
Government from being betrayed by wick
ed and designing men in high places.
Judge Reid is opposed to the disfran-
chisement ofperjured officials in the South

honest Union men will govern instead OF
rebels.
Judge Reid is opposed to pouring

any soldier, unless it helps to advance

Geo. w. Julian is in favor of the Re-
