Good News from Indiana.

The most important news that has been re-
oeived from Indiana since tho campaign began
is that concerning the detection Of such prom
inent democrats as the Hon. w. G. Dcpauw
proprietor of tho Dcpauw American plate
glass works in New Albany, aud his sons,
Newland T. and Charles Depauw, who have
openly declared for Garfield and Arthur and
the republican state ticket They aro organz-
ing Garfield club among their employees, and
sCvcnty.fve of them, heretofore democrats,
have been enrolled.
Tho Times dispatch, which contains the
above cheering news, adds:
Three sons Of tho late Hon. John 8 Davis Judge
OF the circuit court, and noted democratic pOltt-
clan, have declared for Garfield and Arthur, and
also for Porter Mr.. David q. Hudson, heretofore

man, declares for Garfield ana Porter. DR.. Elijah

To he Editor Of The National Republican:
Sin; Supplementary TO tho list from the
Sandusky Register, giving "the lie direct to
the brazen assumption that there were moro
democrats than republicans In the army to
crush tho rebellion" give tho following :
The constitution of Maryland, which was
framed in 1864 (whon, by the way, according
to thoir theories of state rights thousands of
democrats were absent fighting with u foreign
foe against thoir own state), was entirely too
loyal to meet tho views OF those democrats
who stayed at home, because of two clauses
in that constipation which made II obligatory
on them, b,fofe entering upon any Office Of

affirmation that they would Support and de-
fond the constitution, laws and government

summation which they accomplished in Au.

The work of examining the returns Of the

That frauds OF tho most extensive kiud havo

Some curious proofs Of manifest fraud ha ve
recently beeA discovered The census re-
turns are made up on sheets Of uniform size,
each sheet being designed to hold certain
number OF names. These returns. in all places
where the census has boeu honestly TAKEN
OF course are somewhat soiled, and tho entries
In them have been made as the enumerators
have gone from house TO house, aud writing
is irregular. A great many Of the shoots re-
turned by South Carolina enunerators how
over, fairly show that the entries in great
many instances have been written at " single
sitting. They are uniform, as the writing is
at the samo angle, aud there are other signs
by which experts can readily tell that the
document was prepared al one time.
IN one of these lists there are something
over 700 names, aud Of these all except four
are returned as natives Of South Carolina.
This Of itself is proposterOus, as tho expert.
