ION that have heretofore disturbed the

Ill. We do not regard tho visible

the invisible church, according to tho l;o-
man theory, nor do We ;hink that IN this

The present negro exodus from
North Carolina, it is probable, may be
dignified by a Congressional invcstiga-
ton. Mr.. Shelley, of Alabama, has
made a move in that direction in the
House, and a resolution for the same
purpose has been introduced into the
Senate by Mr.. voorhees,, Of Ind. This
exodus is unquestionably a Republi-
can movement, to import in sufficient
numbers an ignorant horde of ire
sponsible negroes into Indiana to be
manipulated as voters to overcome the
votes of the people of that State in
the coming Presidential election. The
conspiracy will perhaps collapse. The
intelligent people of Indiana already
show symptoms of disgust that bodcs
no good to the party resorting to such
despicable means to change the vote
of State.

The Senate passed, by a strict party
vote, Senator Davis resolution calling
upon the Secretary of the Treasury for
tabulated statement of the amount
paid out of the Treasury in each fiscal
year, since the 4th of March, 1861, in
private claims growing out of the late
war. Secretary sherman, in his late
campaign speeches, made the broad
assertion that large amounts of fraud
ulent claims had been paid. He did
this for the purpose of placing the
odium Of their passage on the Demo
cratic majority in Congress, and to en-
force the inference that if the Dcmoc-
racy continued in the ascendency this
class of frauds would accumulate. If
these fraudulent claims were paid out
Of the National Treasury, his report

honestly, will no doubt result in plac.
