The Rev. Thomas A. Goodwin, a
Methodist divine of considerable emf.
nence was recently arraigncd before
the Indiana Conference in session at
indianapolis for heresy in that he de-
MED the resurrection of the physical
body, and that God was being with
bodily parts. Rev. I. b. Knott was
the party who preferred the charges,
but they were prosecuted by the Rev.
llr. Halliday. The court was com.
posed Of Eve mcmbers, and submitted
two reports; the majority report &C
Omitted the accused, and the minority
report favored a reference of the case
to the annual Conference. The Con-
ferencc finally dropped the whole mat

Andrew johnson has announced
himself candidate for the United
States Senate on the reputation plat
form. In recent speech at Chat
tanooga, be said that no large public
debt had ever been paid except By re-
pudiation; and no free Government
had ever sustained a permanent large
debt, and never could. When . debt
became permanent the people were
slaves TO the bondholders 90 much rs
II they held bill of sale upon them.
Gen. w. B. Stokes followed in the
same strain. He WAS in favor of re-
pudiating all the bonds of the United
States, unless the United States would
pay two thousand millions to the late
shareholders OF the South in payment
for the slayes which they had enfran-
chised, fss.s ts,s
From every quarter in the South
comes again the doctrine Of repudia-
tion. This 10 duplicated in the North
and sealed SO far as ii can be by thu
Democratic victories in Ohio and Inai

stab At the integrity Of the Natiol
than was open rebellion which wa
sustained by the vote Of Democracy Il

There is no question in the world
but that large portion of. the Democ,
rscy Of the south entertain the view
that Southern shareholders ought to be
rennneratcd by the general govern
ment for the loss Of their slaves,
though such loss was direct result of
their rebellion. There is equally no
question but that there are many Dem
ocrats IN the North who also think
4nch remuneration should be mxde.-
There IL wonderful sympathy With
the late rebels permcating the nemoc-
racy OF the North. Nm
