We last met him, as his guest. at the 'Riv-

so lightly spoken was for aye. He has gone

Congressional District Of Kentucky,
introdueedinto the House of Repre-
sentatives bill authorizing the build
ing of railroad bridge across the
Ohio River at Paducah; and from the
Congressional Globe of the 18th we
notice that the bill was read first
and second time, and referred TO the
Committee or Roads and Canals.
No railroad bridge1can be built
across the Ohio River at Paducah
which will not be a very serious OBJ
struction to commerce. The free ma
vigation of this great international
water course is of infinitely more i'm
portance than the convenience of any
railroad company; and the people Of
Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois should
see to it that no such authority as
that asked for by Judge TRIMBLE is
granted. There is no immediate de
mand for railroad bridge at Padu
cab even for the accommodation of the
railroads. Bat if such bill as the one
referred to was passed it would be very
difficult to have it repealed. and it is
important that il be resisted from the
The people of Indiana
are vitality interested in the free and
unobstructed navigation of the Ohio,
and we trust that our delegation in
Congress will be united and active in
their opposition to this and all other
efforts to legalize impediments.
We call upon our Representative,
Judge NIBLACK, to give the matter his
immediate attention, as the interests
of Evansville and of his entire con-
stituency are seriously jeopardized by
the movement.

the present, and one Republican
paper put into the hands of doubt

a half year, will accomplish more
good than half dozen speeches or a

The Presidency.

> q II 81 !
In an article in the New York IN
dependent, of the 10th, Mr.. HORACE
GREELEY assigns eight reasons why
Chief Justice CHASE ought to be the
Republican candidate for President.
T1ey aEeT7 yTd t9naE hRs 4fqi
- Because of his fitness by age,
& 4eation, experience and general
claims to public confidence.
Il 2. His public services demand a re-
ward of thatcharaeteT To
3. He contributed, as Secretary of
'the Treasury. more toward suppress
ing the rebellion than any officer in
the field.
e is f. Governor CHASE is the embodi-
ment of the doctrine of impartial suf-
frage.
5. His nomination will be stroke
of boldness which will be very dis
couragingto his oppohents. g HRQJ.
6. Because every Republican who
dislikes extending the voting privi-
lege to the negro, is red mouthed for
GRANT.
The eighth reason is 50 singular
that we give it entire :"aafa j' n'ie.'3.'
- VIII. In 1853, Edwin d. Morgan
was chosen Governor of this State by
IL, 40 majority Ho at once recon
mended impartial suffrage Two sue
cesslve Republican legislatures enact
ed and re-enacted it. 1t then went
to the people simultaneously with his
canvass for reelection, and was voted
down byz149, 33T maj "; get at that
very election, Governor Morgan was
re-chosen by 90. 400 majority. So
General R. B. Hayes was chosen Gov
ernor of Ohio last Fall, and the en-
tire Republican State ticket tri-
Suffrage was voted down at the same
election by some 10000 majority, And
precisely similar results have been ex-
h:bited In Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The few weak brethren who vote
against suffrage for blacks, or with
hold their votes on this question,
vote regularly for the Republican
candidates.
To oar minds Mr.. GREELEY's
eighth treason for nominating CHIEF
Justice CHASE, is the strongest of all
why he should not be nomin-
ated, for it is conclusive that he could
not be elected. He is. the embodiment
of impartial suffrage, and yet i'm
partial suffrage, whenever it has
been submitted TO the people Of the
most radical States, has neea over

bave to indorse the very principle
they have. repeatedly repadiated. II
Republicans have made up their
minds to discard success, each branch
of the party had better nominate a
cand date Of It's own way Of thinking.
and then hew to the line, let the
chips fall where they may" Mr..
GREELEY assumes that the Republic
anparty is committed to his doctrine Of
= Impartial Suffrage" The assump

do not endorse that dog
ma. Some Of them regard negro suf

source to prevent the late rebel States

rebels who formerly controlled them.

We fail to find in the platforms
adopted by the Democratic party in
Ohio and fndianaa resolution In favor
of paying the ex-slaveholders for
their property in man, which was
annihilated during the war. The
brethren IN Kentucky and Maryland,
especially, will feel concerned by the
omission of their friends to recognize
their claims for damages. The De-
mocracy OF Ohio went SO far as to de-
clare that they have no purpese to
assume any OF the debts of the States
lately in rebellion Phis, needs ex-
PLANTATION. Is. not the admission that
there were States In rebellion gra-
tuitous, considered from Democratic
stand -point-Cfnctnndtt C numerical.
The Ohio Legislature has done its
best to harmonic with the Kentucky
Democracy by voting down the Four
teenth Amendment. If properly en-
couraged, it will readily recognize the
of the claims of the Ken
tuckians for damages sustained by the
of their slaves.

EEerything is Lovely.

Speaker CoLFAx- has addressed a
letter to a gentleman in Indianapolis,
repeating the announcement, gnade by
us some time ago, that he would not
be candidate for Governor. His
duties as Speaker of the Fortieth
Congress he holds paramount to every
other duty, and cannot be laid aside.
In addition to this deciination, MIR.
CoLFAx expresses some opinions
relative to the action of the present
Congress, so rose-colored, that we
cannot refrain from copying them. He
says: ~
Congress will again prove itself
worthy of the confidence Loyal and
patriotic people have so long reposed
In it. We shall fearlessly face and
settle all the financial questions grow
ing out of the enormous cost Of the
Democratic rebellion. Of course, I
do not attempt to predict. at this early
period of the session, all the details
of its legislation. But, speaking oaly
as one member Of the House, I have
nc. doubt that Congress will refuse to
unwisely burden the people with at
tempts to pay off the National debt
by excessive taxation; that it will
stop the contraction policy, assented
to as 1t was, on the urgent appeal of
the Secretary of Treasury, but which
has so paralyzed business, without re-
ducing the gold premium or bringing
the country nearer to specie pay
ments: it will not consent that so
large an amount of gold shall be use
lessly boarded up In the Treasury
vaults, when it might be applied more
probably and wisely to the reduction
of the interest on the national debt;
it will retrench Government expend-
iture In every branch OF the service
cepting the sacred debt of pc 1sions
to our disabled soldiers and sailors,
and the families of our fallen de-
tenders; it will compel the collection
Of our revenue by the officers of this
administration, thus placing scores Of
millions per year IN the Treasury,
which are now worse than lost; it will
reduce taxation largely andreliev our
struggling industries, as well as tax
payers generally, from every possible
burden, consistent with the main
tainan OF our national honor
and have the fullest faith that it will
agree upon a just and acceptable
financial policy upon all other ques-
lions, that will neither dishonor the
Republic, impair IT'S credit nor wrong
creditor or citizen. Besides this, it
will embody and speak the national
voice on the fullest protection and !
vindication of the rights Of every
American citizen, native bora or, nat
uralized, at home or abroad. .su
This is most delightful! We con-
fess, however, to being perplexed
with skepticism that will not be ex.
orcised until we see these rosy antici-
pations of our worthy Speaker in ac-
tual operation as United States laws.
When that is done we will throw up
our hats high and shout with the
loudest.
