Democrats Be on Your Guard.

The Democrats of Indiana should know
that there is positive evidence that negroes
are now being brought into this State in large
numbers, for the purpose of voting this fall
who will not be entitled to vote for the reason
that they will not have been in the State six
months before the election as required by law,
and the constitution. But the Republicans
intend to uote them without regard to lao or
constitutions, and to that end they are now
being colonized in precincts where the cleo
ton board and officers of the law are Repub-
licans.
So great is the desperation of the Republi-
can leaders, in view of their approaching
doom, thatit is believed in some localities they
,ciU pay no regard to Democratic challenges
of illegal voters, and will even refuse to issue
or execute warrants for the arrest of offenders
or will neglect to do so until it is too late to
prevent the mischief of illegal voting. If
this should be the case in any locality It aoilI
be the duty of the Democrats and friends Of
fair play and LAWFUL elections to exercise the
God-giren right Of .freemen. Let them
shOl1 their manhood. Let them shoe that
they ksaoio their rights and ks00i,sg dare
maintain them. We say to you then spot ereyy
illegal softer, exercise euery taacfia means to
keep him from voting, and Keep him from
noting Organize for that purpose and stand
together as one man IN defense of your rights
and the faithful erecttson Of the ia,o.

The Sentinel refers to the fact that both
the proprietor and editor of that paper lived
in the district represented in Congress by the
Hon. William II. English at the time he
made his celebrated campaign against the
Know Nothing party, which was then sweep
ing the country and making war not only
upon our foreign-born citizens, but civil and
religious liberty as well. The Sentinel says:
"The proprietor of this paper, and also the
editor, lived in Mr.. English's district then,
and remember well the gallant and glorious
fight that he made in defense of religious
freedom and the rights of our foreign-born
citizens. So great was the excitement that
men, women and children were slaughtered,
just across the river from Mr.. English's dis
trict, because they happened to be born
abroad, and the same spirit prevailed in all
that region. BUT MR.. ENGLISH,
THOUGH THREATENED WITH MOB
VIOLENCE, FOUGHT THEM ON
EVERY STUMP, AND CAME OUT
VICTORIOUS. NO MAN DID MORE
TO OVERTHROW THIS FRIGHTFUL

AND A FANATICAL SEARCH, SEIZ'

According to 4 Columbus special
to the Cincinnati Enquirer, "Calico
Charley" is not very fuvornbly i'm
pressed with the result of his re-
cent political observations. lie
comedies New Nork to the Dcmoc-
racy; thinks Pennsylvania very
doubtful, and says tho Republican
Committee in Ohio will have to
buckle down to work in earnest
and make u vigorous canvass, or
they "will bo left" He admits
that General Hancock's letter to
Sherman was more than the lIcpub-
licans bargained for, and says no
document that can DO circulated by
the Democrats willdo their cause
rs much good rs its publication.
Tho governor also thinks that q
very large portion of the rank and
liEc Of tho old soldiers will vote for
Hancock, and snys his character
and record, is above reproach,
and that no attack can be success
fully made upon him.

Il Mt for JohI. Hutchinson.

John Hutchinson, taking his cue
from an editor who is notorious for
his Misrepresentation OF the intel
ligcnco and'prosperity of the people
Of this State, had Il gool deal to
say in his Court House speech Of
like tenor. 1t is the habit Of this
class of stumpcrs to dcnouncc the
people of West Virginia rs being
ignorant, rmenterprising, slothGul,
as compared with the people Of
other States; and to declare that
by our Dourhonism We are not only
preventing immigration to our
own State, hut rather driving our
nwn pnterprising citizens from our
borders. or course this whole tir-
adc is nothing but vulgar SANDER,
as all intelligent people well under
stand. That immigration has Al-
ways heretofore and always will
pour moro rapidly into the now
States with level lands than into
old mountainous regions, whether
those States bo North or South Of
MasOn's und Dixon's ,line, every
body understands. But now lot tls
SEQ whnt tale The census Of 1850
