Indian. Democratic State Convention.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 12.-After the announce
ment of the choice of W. c. Depeu as Lieut.
Governor, Mr.. Hendricks appeared on the
stage escorted by the Committee, amid the
widest enthusiasm of the Convention. He
said he had no expectation of being the nomi-
of the convention. He had been appealed to
by those to whose appeal he could not be deaf
He was influenced in his hesitation to accept
only by personal reasons. He spoke of the
growing interests of the State and said that the
office of Governor was rendered more than usu-
ally important by the Entertainments of central
power. If elected, while he would endeavor to
maintain always the most friendly relations
with the central power, he would most strenu-
ously labor to maintain the rights of the State
to its own fireside government. He asked if
the people of the South, beggard and oppressed,
should appeal to us in vain for political sup
port? fCries Of s'no.'') He referred to the ne
cessity for civil service REFORM and trusted that
the party now seeking cooperation with the
Democrats parry would BIO abb, 90 s~oh:oro IL.
Referring to the coming convention at Balti-
more, he said that he thought this convention
faroshedowed the result of that, to the result
of which he pledged his support.
The Convention endorsed the Cincinnati
platform and candidates.

cent trip of the senior class to the White
Mountains, made the ascent of Mt. Washing
ton, the first party that has been up this sea-
son; considering the season of the year, the
time of setting out Il 80 p M. y and the threat
ening state of the weather, it was bold and
hazardous undertaking for a party of school
boys; they encountered binding storm of
mist and rain, and were obliged to wade
through deep snow-drifts making the latter
portion of the ascent extremely difficult and
dangerous; they were taken in and kindly
cared for by the United States Observers,
Messrs. Hearne and Bell, and spent the night
on the summit; it was an adventurous excur-
sion, highly enjoyed by the boys, and one they
will long ber.-TrdnScript.

terey on the 30th reached here to-day. He an
nounces complete victory over the Govern
ment forces and the capture OF all their sup

army sustained severe loss.
Col Reveltas, with several hundred govern
ment forces, held Monterey until the Sd inst,
when he was dislodged and returned to Saltillo,
pursued by Gen. Lang with 800 men. Between
the 9Th Of May and the Sd of June Monterey
was sacked by the soldiers of both sides and
large amounts of property were stolen Seve-
raj of the principal stores were completely
cleaned out.
Col. Steel, an American, was killed. Many
youths of the city serving in the national guard

ed and is represented to be in mourning for
those killed. Nearly every family lost some
member.

CUMBERLAND CONFERENCE, SEMI-CENTFN-
NIAL.-The children's meeting attracted large
audience, being a somewhat unusual adjunct
of the Conference. After singing by a juvenile
choir, Rev. NJ. II. Williams took ''Our Father"
as text, and showed the power, goodness and
love of God. Rev. f. H. Byington illustrated
Bible study by walk he had just enjoyed.
Rev. A. H. Wright talked about the Crown of
Righteousness, and the closing address by Rev.
E. P. Thwing united the previous remarks, and
suggested the prayer, 'Our Father, be Thou the
guide of my youth, which God would answer
and thus ensure the final crown.
SECOND DAY-BUsINEss SESSION.
The delegates to the State Conference were
instructed to secure if possible, such reduction
of the bulky size of the annual report as will
lessen needless expenses of printing. Treasur-
er and Registrar were elected.
1.-THE Observance of the Sabbath" was dis
cussed by pastors Byington and Hincks The
former argued the divine law, and answered OBJ
jections to its strict observance. The latter
nature is developed. Worship in the sanctuary
and family, and labor for the souls of young
and old the social and physical nature must
also be remembered, the relative claims of each
to be settled intelligently and prayerfully, in
the spirit of reverent freedom, yet with regard
Pastors Adams and Williams spoke on the many
Sunday services now held. Three are as many
as one can proftably attend, yet some may at
tend mornings who cannot evenings.
''How TO reach the outlying Masses" was in
troduced by Rev. E. Bean, who read an account
by w. E. Gould, esq.,, of new Deering parish,
now holding $14, 500 worth of property without
membranes. A church of % is soon to be
formed, and others are ready to join by profess
sion. Rev. f. Southworth pointed out the gos-
pei of Christ and the example of personal piety,
as the true factors of success. He pleaded ear
nestly for the sailors of Maine, whose interests
he serves at the Portland Bethel. Dr. Car
ruthers said that each had an individual work
fruitlessness of sensational preaching and the
evils of pew system, which virtually excluded
strangers, locks and keys having been used to
his knowledge. Rev. E. P. Thwing suggested
the value of systematic district visitation and
outdoor services in warm weather.
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
Rev. L. Bartlett preached from the text, I'VE
are improbable servants" He defined duty as
related to law, the state of servtude only
preparatory to the state of sonship and kinship
to which, by faith iii Christ, we are lifted Revs.
w. HI. Haskell and e. P. Thwing then admin
istered the Lords Supper, and the latter paid a
memorial tribute to those who the past half
century have passed away, Smith and Weston,
Hobart and Broughton, Dwight, Thurston,
| Jones and others, besides such as Shepley,
Adams and Chickering, still useful in other
fields. After the hymn "Blest be the tie,' and
the votes of thanks, the meeting was closed
The attendance was large, the Inequalities am
pie, and old conference-goe pronounced it the
best they ever attended.
