THE PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE
PROSPECTUS FOR 1850.

The coming presidential year promise to be
the most eventful and thrilling in a political
sense that we have ever witnessed, and will
determine questions of the most vital import-
ance TO every citizen of the State and nation.
1t is not improbable-indeed, it is almost GER
tain that, upon the determination of these
questions, viii depend the perpetuity of our
present system OF free government.
Ihese questions viii be thoroughly discussed
The sentinel has arranged for a irst-class,
experienced special correspondent at WASH
count of ali the general proceedings In that
Dody, Will give the leading speeRhes of our
most prominent statesmen, and without de-
reading matter. The Sentinel will hereafter
contain a supplement, making in all sixty
OF composition.
In a word, IL is the purpose of the Sentinel, Z
as q steadfast Waterman OF public intelligence
to do its whole duty in affording information
TO its subscribers upon all these topics of such
vast moment.
Asin 76 so in 80 Indiana will be called upon
to take a first position In the front of the great
contest, and upon the success or failure of the
great and gallant Democracy OF cur State viii
depend the fate OF issues the most Kortentsus
ever submitted to the arbitrament of q free
people.
We shall also specially call attention, from
day TO day, as occasion may require, to an en-
we mean the forced emigration for temporary
partisan purposes OF pauper negroes from the
South into Indiana. The managers and Lead
ers of the Republican party, in our State and
at Washington, are now engaged in this nefar-
iOus work, and are attempting by every
means in their power to promote its advance
vince our people of the correctness of their po-
litical principles by reason or argument;
their appeals TO hatred and prejudice nave
fallen harmless; their lavish and corrupt ex-
penditures OF public and private moneys have
proved wholly futile. They propose now by
an African invasion of worse than q vandal
Qorde of beggars and mendicants to override
the voice OF the people of the State, and to
drown the Democratic majority. The last
rocNrf tho fOrlOrn hOnQ the QCcQulffcO Marty
the picket assailing corps of Republieanism IN
Indiana, is thus maze up-not from the
Hunters Harr1sOns, Heflmans or ShacklefOrds
of the State: not from the intelligence or
ability of that party, but is composed of q
motley. parti-colored gang of wretched field
of this worthless Importation are made use Of
TO destroy the free franchise of resident citi-
zens, and to tax our means Of home labor and
political tenets of q defeated faction.
The sleepless Sentinel, upon the heights OF
popular rights and popular liberty, predicts
With respect to this before unheard OF
method of manufacturing party majorities In
Estate, we shall al all times give the latest and
most reliable intelligence.
The American Democracy, the Federal
Union, the rights of the people and the States,
one and inseparable-now and forever.
The merits of the Sentinel as a general news
paper are so well known among the farmers
OF this State, especially those of the Demo-
cratic persuasion, that commentator OF II
Is deemed superfiuous. We will add, however,
that the management has arranged and fully
determined that no paper snail furnish so
great practical value to its patrons for the
money.

lated In the State.
IL will be particularly adapted to the family
thinking man in the State can afford to do
without the Weekly Sentinel at the small cost
at which it is furnished.
