JUDGE JAMES NJ. HANNA, the IRE
signed" Senator from Clay and Sulli-
van, is out In a manifesto announcing
himself as a candidate for reelection,
and apolOgizing for his resignation.
The card is quite too absurd to
require serious notice, and indicates
that the Judge intended it rather for
effect on idiots than intelligent men.
Speaking of the proposed Amend
ment, he says:
This would entail social equality,
intermarriage, and all the train of evils
IA wicked people and a weak Gov
eminent among them, resulting from
a mixed race of whites and negroes. !"
This is to say, if negro votes, you
must marry his mother, sister, or
daughter, and must take him for your
son-in-law, brother-in-law, or STEP
father! Our estimate of the average
intelligence Of Democrats in Clay and
Sullivan is not very high, but the
Judge goes far below us. We would
hesitate long before insulting them
with such puerile twaddle as he hurls
at them, and of which we have quoted
fair sample. Will the time ever
come when the negro will present
himself to the Democratic mind in
any other shape than as a candidate
for intermarriage with members of
that political faith? Is this terrible
fear Of such a mixture" that con-
tinually haunts the Democratic soul.
founded on consciousness of pecu-
liar danger resulting from q natural
leaning of the Democratic heart In
that direction? Does Democracy fear
its absorption, gradual extinction, by
the process above indicated? If so,
the fear is groundless. Education of
the negroes is fast making such an
alliance an impessibility. Take cour-
age, trembling Democracy the dan
ger which now makes you quake will
soon be above your reach. - Terre

ONE of the effects of the disgraceful
bolt of the Democratic members of
the Legislature was to leave the In
diana S,ldiers' Home without any
funds for the support of the disabled
soldiers in that institution. The Odd
Fellows of the State have made a
noble effort to counterfeit the evils
intended to result to the inmates of
the Home, by raising and sending to
the proper authorities a donation in
money. The correspondence on the
inject between Dir. BARRY, the Sec
rotary of the Order, and Mr.. HANNA
MANN, representing the Home, is
printed in to-day's paper.

A BosTON man named Professor
johnson claims to have invented a
portable heating apparatus by which.
without evaporation, loss Of water, or
possibility of explosion, a pint of
water and heat enough to boil it will
warm a good sized room. 1t is made
of common sheet iron, with wire
heater, and, in addition to its merits
as a heater. it is claimed to be one of
the best ventilators ever devised.
This apparatus is said to be rapidly
coming into use in Boston.

Coop JoKE.-We find the following
joke in the Courier Of yesterday.
The County Commissioners were In
session yesterday, and considerable
business was transacted. AFRO Dyer,
Esq, resigned the position OF County
Attorney, and Robert A. Hill was
appointed to fill the vacancy.
The exact language in which Mr..
DYER rendered his resignation, as we
find by an examination of the record,
is as follows:
1t is now here ordered that the
services of AFRO Dyer. Esq, as County
Attorney, be dispensed aoith from and
afier his day.
We copy the language OF the resig-
nation for its singularity. We dc
not know that we ever read resigna-
lion expressed in the same words

NEWSPAPER AoE0soLg. ~ Slr.
HALDEMAN, Of the Louisville Cour-
der, has managed to obtain the entire
control Of the English newspaper
press of Louisville. He first consoli-
dated the Journal with the Courier,
and next bought the Democrat. The
latter is to be published az an after
noon paper. while the Courier Jour
nal has the field as morning paper.
Thus we have one large city where
one concern has complete monopoly
in the newspaper line. No new paper
can be supplied with the Associated
Press dispatches, without the consent
of Mr.. HALDEMAN. Unfortunately,
while the Courier is a wide-awake
news paper, It is Democratic in poll
tics, which is bad for Kentucky.

Respect the Body.

A writer in the Hearth and Home
says:
Respect the body. Give it what it
requires, aud no more. Don't pierce
its ears, strain its eyes, or pinch its
feet; don't roast it by a hot fire all
day, and smother it under heavy bed
covering all night; don't put it In a
cold draft on slight occasions, and
don't nurse or pet it to death; don t
dose it with doctors stufs, and, above
all, don't turn it it into a wine cask
or a chimney. Let it be warranted
not to smoke" from the time your
manhood takes possession. Respect
the body; don't over work, over rest,
or over love it, and never debase it.,
but be able to lay it down when you
are done with it a we'll worn but not
a misused thing. Meantime, treat il
at least as we'll as you would your pet
horse or hound, and, my word for it,
though it will not jump to China at a
bound, you'll fud it most excellent
thing to have-especially in the coun-

INDIANA SOLDIERS
D SEAMEN's HOWE.

INDIANAPOLIS, March IL, 1869
&. II. Barry, Esq, Secretary Grand Lodge
Independent order Of odd Fell0lgs:
SIR-Your favor of the 9th instant,
containing a check for six hundred
and six dollars and fifty cents, being a
balance of collections heretofore made
through the Subordinate Lodges of
your Order in this State, for the ben
eft of disabled soldiers of Indiana
and their orphan children, has this
day been received, with many thanks.
Your contribution comes most oppOr-
timely. The Legislature having failed
to make the necessary appropriation
for its support, we have, in part, to
rely upon the kindness of our friends,
among whom we class your noble
Order.
Before the State assumed control of
the Home, and when its only reliance
was upon the private contributions OF
our liberal citizens, your fraternity
came promptly to our relief, and by a
precious contribution of two thousand
and eighty three dollars aud fifty
cents, enabled the Board of Trustees
to complete the payment on the real
estate near KnightstoWn, Indiana,
thereby securing to our veteran sol
diers and their orphans a permanent
Home, so long as they may be permit
ted to enjoy it. This munifcent dona-
ton, coming so timely, will ever be
held in lively remembrance, both by
the members of the old Soldiers
Homo Association and the present
Board Of Trustees. 1t gives the best
possible evidence of the benevolent
aud charitable character of the indie
pendent Order of Odd Fellows of In
diana.
Nor is the present contribution
less valuable, coming, as it does, when
all is gloom-when we know not whom
to look to for aid-it assures US that
we still have friends on whom we can
rely for help, and is of far more value
in cheering us onward, than the mere
dollars would indicate. 1t furnishes
another bright star In the crown of
your noble Order for benevolent and
Christian charity.
Be kind enough to return to the
Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows of In
diana, our sincere thanks in behalf of
the disabled soldiers and soldiers
orphans, for this valuable donation in
time of need.
Very respectfully,
VIM HANNAMANN,
Pres't Board of Trustees.
