did not at first intend that any
negroes should be sent north OF the Wabash
they were to be distributed around in the
central portions of the State. This con-
fesslon is in accordance with the facts.
None have so far been sent north of the
Wabash. Marion, Putnam, Rush, Shelby,
Boone and Virgo have received all
so far. But Mr.. Cornell and
the Radicals OF Northern Indiana did
not like the looks of things in their section
and more especially in John H. Bakers dis
trict. His district is very evenly balanced,
and IL was deemed important to have some
negroes in Hlkhart, Kosciasko and st. Joseph
counties. Here is the precious scheme,
as unfolded by our correspondent Six hun
dred and forty acres of land are to be pur-
chased in Middlebury township, Elkhart
county, and 90 families of North Carolina
negroes are expected about the first
of next month. Mr.. Bakers
district must be saved 10 Radicalism-
We understand also that more negroes from
Cass county, Michigan, are to be invited over
into Elkhart county.
This scheme simply lifts the vail once
again from the desperate attempt to Afri-
canize Indiana. It is useless for the Repub-
lican press and party to deny 1t. After this
is done, and the State made thoroughly and
reliably Republican, then some advanced
Radical will arise from his seat in our legis-
lative halls and introduce a bill to legalize
the marriage of the whites and blacks Per-
haps some of our readers may smile.
Have they noticed the recent
advance of stalwart Republication
in the State Legislature of Ohio,
our adjoining sister State? A member of the
Ohio Legislature, representing Hamilton
county, introduced bill lest week legalzIng
miscegenation. Williams, the member who
introduced the bill, is from Cincinnati

riage of the races Is allowed
be the solitary claim to the distinction.
Sach marriages are allowed in the French
capital-that is If the parties care to have
their in imscles solemnizsd by marriage.
Thus RadIcalism advances so rapidly that
the political ohssr and prophet becomes
dszsd and bewidered at its sudaci-
ty, and oftentimes at its success.
Its success we say, because it looks as If the
people OF the North at times became so thor

Letter from Sheriff Lewman-An Interesting
Ahidavit.
To the Editor OF the Sentinel.
SIR-The editor of the Journal, in his issue
OF the I'd inst, criticises my testimony be-
fore the exodus committee at Washington.
Mr.. Martindale manifests, to say the least,
little too much sensitiveness in this mat
ter, and gees off half-cocked. Before an in
vestigating committee a witness is required
to testify, not only of facts within his per
sonal knowledge, but also to give all the In
formation he has, by hearsay and otherwise,
of the subject under investigation. testi
fed before the committee as to the state
ments made by the man Heath TO myself
and others, at this piece, but did not ex-
press any opinion OF their truth or falsity.
Heath showed me papers which
be said Martindale and Holloway
gave him, and told me that
he was furnished in Washington with letters
to Martindale and Holloway at Indianapolis,
and they gave him letters TO LaDgsdae and
Cisy at Greencastle. This can substant iate,
ana If Heath lied about Martindale the two
brothers eau fight 1t out, and determine in
their own family which is the kettle and
which the pot. / shall, therefore, not correct
my testimony before the committee because
/ have testified to nothing but the truth;
for the same reason / will not stand con
demned as having sworn falsely" and shall
not bring an action against the Journal for
libel, because l do not wish to sue a beggar
and catch louse.'" l, however, have no
hesitation in here saying that while before
the committee | expressed no opinion of the
reliability OF the negros statements. have

Occasionally we get an inodorous Whit
from that decsying bit of Radical beauty
the old Freedman's bank. 1t was such a
handsome end magnificent specimen of ras-
cally Radicalism thai we are tempted to go
around about it, tell the towers thereof. and
describe its various beauties once again TO
our resders-but we will forego the enchant-
ing pleasure and content ourselves with q
brief glance at its present status. A select
Senate committee has had its affairs
in hand for a long time. Bruce, the
colored senator from Mississippi, is chair
nan of the committee. and occasionally he
IS given out that there is no doubt that a
CAT deal OF rascsllty underlies the entire
arr but that it has been almost entirely
INVISIBLE to ferret it out. AS Mr.. Bruce
will ,cate his seat in the Sensts shortly to
give w to the new senator from Missis-
slPpi, II. George, we suppose that it will be
some tne before we get anything abso-
lutely cGclusive about the old bank. The
latest intelligence is that the committee
continues to taLe testimony from
time to time. and during the
week it will hNld series OF
meetings for the Purpos. Of examining ad-
ditonal witnesses. The ehances are very

THE NEGRO EMIGRATION.


In a republican government the majority
must rule, or the government ceases to be
republican. In giving Mr.. Hayes the presi-
dency in 1871, when he had been defeated
by the people, the Republican party testified
to the world that it will grasp power when
ever power is attainable, without regard to
means. Power coming through the manipu-
lations of corrupt returning boards is taken
as readily as power given by the free votes
of the people. The Republican party in
Indiana, not having the facilities of return
ing boards to invest itself with power, tue
to ITS history, seek power by the importa-
ton of negroes from the Southern States.
These negroes are alien in feeling and inter
est to our people. and come here in viola
ton OF all known natural laws governir 3
emigration. They are brought here to
take Indiana from her Democratic moorings.
and to place her in the list OF Republican
States. If they work, it must be at the
expense OF white laborerS, and if they play it
must be at the expense OF the white tax
psyeI, Tor the taxes paid by men OF their
color are too meager ~ he named in con-
sidering results. Their emigration to. our
State is unnatural, and could only have been
brought about by artificial means. While
the Sentinel does not object to natural and
legitimate emigration, il considers the influx
of Southern negroes now inundsting Indi.
ana as a crime sgainst free government, and
an outrage upon the white men of the State.

RADICAL AUDACITY AND ENCOURAGEMENT.
National politics are exceedingly interest
ing It the present time, and growing more
ans more SO from day TO day, and we do not
friend to sIur them in any re
gard, but our home matters
have been so interesting that we
have devoted more space to them re-
Gently than for tome time past. The des
Derate scheme of the Indiana managers of
the Radical craft to fill the State with North
Carolina negroes is of more importance to
our people than anything else at present.
We have, we think, beyond all question
connected prominent Republicans OF this
city and State-blsck and white-wIth the
movement. There is no humanity in it
none of that high-toned, charitable SYM
patty for down-trodden, unfortunate race
which we find in some of the grand
movements Of the past; nothing but q
narrow, miserable, low phase OF par
tIsan policy. We want "bucks," is the
confession of an Indianapolis Republican
before the exodus committee. A sequel to
this desire for "bucks" comes to us in the
NoblesvilIe story which we published the
other day. A party of negroes arrived in
that town on Saturday last, and they were
all sent to the poor farm of Hamilton
county. There were no bucks among
them, therefore no voters. Our Goshen,
Ind, special which we published on
Wednesday morning revealed another fea-
ture in this miserable Radical programme.
