Mr, Davenport snys that, If furnished tho information which Kelly professca to Lava with regard tu colonizution and fraudulent reg- istration, he will prosecute tho offending partica befero such United States Commissioncr ns Kelly may designate. Of course tha Tammnny ehfef will not nccept Mr. Davenport's proposi+ tion, fur tha very good reason that tho frauds which he talked about aro dgmenta of his lmag- ination, and the tulk was indulged in in order to cover up the Democratic frauds for while New York Js so notorious, and which aro wiiked at,if not absolutely encouraged by Mr, Kolly aud otor Tammanyite: TJounny DAVES ‘Tie almost total extinction of tho Green: back party Jn Indlang and Ohio will bave ita effect on the flatiats of this State.’ Somo threo weoks ago tho Greonbuckers wore talking about 100,000 votes fm Winols, and the Democrnta, always rendy to onter into an alliance with any purty or set, were willing to trada with thoin,— tw withdraw oight of thelr Etootora and nom~ inato eight Greenbackors Instoad,—on condition that the Groenbackers would yato for tho whole Electoral tickot thus constituted.

INDIANA REDEEMED. Tho wonder is, not that Indiana: gavo 9 Republican majority of 7,141 Inst Tuesday, butthat the State has over been consldered i tall-ploca to the Solid South, Supported by Lltinols and Onto on elther side, and touching on the north the great stalwart State of Michigan, Indians fs naturally Re- publican, The ordinance of 1787 forbidding sinvery inthe Northwest made herso. As between the Democratic and the Whig par- ties, there wns Ittle to chuose on the score of freedont or subservience to tho slave powers and Indiana wns then usually Democratic, But it shontd be remembered to hor ever- lasting honor that Abraham Lincotn had tho Electoral yote of the State fn. 1800, and tho Republican majority of 9,000 In the previous October was tho first assurance of his olec- tlon. Front 1860 til) 1873 the Republicanism of Indiana was never serlously disproven. Knights of the Golden Cirelo and kindred bands of disloyal conspirators flourished in the State in War times, but Ollver 2. Morton was Governor, and he had the support of a vast majority of the people. Lincoln had the Electoral vote of the State twice, and Grant twice. ‘The elections were close, but the Republicans somehow pulled through. ‘They kept tho Legislature and ono or two United States Senators, and the State Ad- miulstration for twelve years was essentially Republican, , Two causes combined to hand over the State to the Democracy, Tho first was the Panic of 1873, followed by the hard times, ‘The stringency was severely felt in Indlaua, Fiatlsm sprang up and blossomed out. Both parties fell tu bidding for the Greenback voto; but the Democracy bid most and got the bulk of it Dan YVoor- hees went upand down the State bawling for rag-money; and Landers went roaring round after him. Hendricks parted his principles first in the middle, and then three- quarters on tho Fiat side. The only Demo- eratof any prominence who remained at all firm was Jo McDonald, and ho constant- ly gave symptoms of fright and weakness, Forn time the combined Democratic aud Fiatist parties swept the State. Thoy elect- ed the Legislature, sant McDonald and Voor- hees to the Senate,—ns t compromise on the currency question,—and gnve the Electoral yote to Tilden, ‘They redistricted the State, leaving the Hepublicans, as they supposed, but three .Congressional districts, and s¢- curing (they thought) ten and a majority of the Leglslature for many years. Another cause of Democratic strength and Republican weakness was the “Baxter Op- ton law,” passed in 1873. The Democrats raised no objection to its passage, and many —porlinps o majority of that party—voted for It; but no sooner had it become a law than the responsibility for 1t was thrust exclu- sively upon the Republicans. It cost theni na largo share of tho German yote, hitherto the firmest element of the party, ‘This sevession was hastened, It {1s said, by the scandals In the Republican Administration from 1872 to 1876, espeelally by the discovery of the Whisky Ring. Whatever tio immediate cause, it is sufficient to know that the Ger- mane were largely allennted from thelr old party assoclations, and threw In thelr welght on the other side. They have Intelyroturned, asageneral thing, tothe Republican party, all, cause for dissatisfaction on their part having been removed, To tho Geriians of Indlaua much of the honor of the victory of lnst Tuesday is due, Indiana very soon found that the charactor of a * Democratle State” wasnotenvinble. Lt wasn repronch to Indiana, n portion of the territory set apart forever and consecrated to free Inbor, that she should have cast in hor lot with the ex-Slavo States. The cog- nomen of *full-plece to the Solid South” begnn to bo freely applied to her. Indinnlans who traveled found that there was a whle- spread misapprehonsion as to the enterprise, thrift, Industry, edueation, and intelllgence of tho State, Outside buslness-men thought that Indiann must be benighted, that the cuinmon-schools could not bu well conducted or attended there, that morals and the means of grace In.that Statu must bo neglected, And when the Indiana traveler, buoyed up by State pride and the consciousness of in- nocence, asseverated that it was not so, that Judiana was ono of the noblest and best in the sisterhood of States, the crushing re sponse invarlably would be: “But indiana Is Democratic, Is she not?", ‘! Indlana Is not for “State-sovoreignty”” any longer, but Is now Natlonal, Men most familltur with Indiana politics and compe- tont to Judge bolleve that sho has taken no place permanently tn the Iepubliean col- unm, ‘There arostill State-soverelgnty Dem- oerats loft in the State, it is true, and Rebel flags were sporadic in Democratic proces- sions less than two weeks ago, ‘The State was largely settled from the South, and may reinaln a trile closer than Ohlo or Llhiols for some tlme to cone, But the Republlenn party of Indiana Ing struck Its gait agaln, and [tis a hurd ono to beat. ‘Ymes have lin proved and the adium of Southern tail-plece yeating on the Stato ty removed, With o fresh ond vigorous Republienn Administra tlon inattors will rapidly Improve, A good nme fs a great Jowel In business, and Ind!- nna is redeemed, Sho is now where she nat- urally bulongy, aud she has come thera to stay. Junae Trusimutt in his speech of Batur- lay night, in telling what ho claimed the Demoeratle party had done, sald that “ the country hud to thank a Democratic Congress for the remonotization of tho sliver dollar," ‘This was a misrepresentation by a suppres: ston of the facts, ‘ihe vote on the passage of tho bill over tho voto was as follows: Yeu Naw, | Bonato—Domocrats. Ropublica ow w Souse—Demoerats, yy at epublica 2 T a It will be seen that tho silyor Democrats had not yotes enough in elthor House to give a mujority for tho bill, mugh less pass Mover a veto, Inthe House thero were only NO Democrats out of a House of 20d mem- bers voting to remonetize the silver dollar, aud in the Senate there were only 2} Demo- craty qutof 05 Senators present who voted for tho bill. Tho Republicans of tha Llouse easta larger per cent of thelr numbers than (ld the Demuernts, Party Hnes were utterly isregarded on both slides tn repealing tho silvorstemonatizing bill which Judge ‘Tram bull himselt helped to pass, Io ty the Inst man in Illinofa that should ninke the false elaim he docs for the Democrats, but ns the canvass proceeds and he beholds ovorwheln- {ng defent staring him in the face he becomes utterly reckless In lis partisan assertions. THE NORTHERN DOUGHFACE. “Tho South has thirty-two Senators, and needs only seven nt any tlie to make o mn: jority of that bodys and ft will never fail to have these If there aro seven Northorn Dem- ocrats there !’? This biting truth fn Senator Cont!ing's specch suggests one of the strangest facts In tho history of American pollties,—the stib- serviuney, the apparent cowardice, of tho Northern Democrat in the presence of 4 Southerner, ‘The one {3 always the master; tho other always the servant. ‘That this Is a. fact few will deny, though why itis so may be dtiMeult to explain, ‘The average Northern man Is not naturally ® coward. Asp general proposition he does not enjoy seryltude, Born and reared anid Northern elvilization, he knows {ts value compared to the seni-barharismof tho South, Why then should the Northern Democrat in- yarlably submit to the dictation of n South arner? Why is it that he never has a belief nor a policy to which ho will stand up, and, if necessary, be willing to enforce In the faco and teeth of Southern men? 7 ‘These same Southern men have beliefs and pollcics they are not afraid tonvow, They nro not afraid to meet Northern Democrats nor to try thelr hand at compulsion, The his- tory of the Democrntie party for tho past thirty years {s slmply that of Southern domination over the Northern Demo- cratic. mind. Now, what Is the explana- tion of this singulnr fact? What 4s thore ina Southerner that invariably terrifies his brother from the North? What fs there in the nature of things that gives thoSontherner this power to rule, aud which renders the Northern Democrat so willing to be ruled? Is there something in the Southern Demo- cratic will superior to that of the Northern article? Just Imagine, say, twenty determined Southerners mecting twenty Northern Demo- erats in a retired room on some vital polltieal matter,-the former bent on carrylng thelr point} Perhaps in these clreumstgnees may be found the answer tu the question: “Why do we laugh?” Wecan sev the firmmess—the aggressive fron will—on tho onvliand, and the miserable spongy, yielding material on tho other, We know the result: when the door opens, The Southerners will come forth victorious,—tenderly leading out thelr noble Northern brethren, whose patriotism hag enabled them to rise above mere sectional Issues! It has always been so. We challenge the instancing of a single case where Northern Democrats have deflantly faced Southorn men and successfully carried a point. James Bu- ehanun ts the typical Democrat from the North,—crying and wringing his hands be- cause unnblo to freo himself from his South- era masters, And what does the Northern Democrat re- celve in return for all this? Nothing but | scorn aud contempt. We remember « singular a3 well as a com- ical ilustration of this In tha United States Senate one afternoon in 1858, Senator Blg- Jer, of Pemusylvania—a good specimen of the Northern Democrat,—offered a resolution approprinting soma woney for the pureliuase and.distribution of garden and other. seeds, Assoon ag he had taken his seat, flery old Senator Iverson, of Georgia, sprang tohis feet and vlulently opposed the measure, When he closed, John P, Male, with that peculiar expression ho always wore when ubout to strike hard or to ernck a joke, rose and sali: “Mr, President, [am deeply grieved. ‘Truly, Republics are ungrateful, ere Is my «ls- tinguished friend from Pennsylvania who has ever faithfully striven to carry ont tho wishes of tho South. ‘Ho has risen early and worked lato to pienso his Southern friends, and now when he comes for his pay ont meokly asks only alittle garden-seed and a few cabbages his humble request is Indig- nantly refused!" 2. ML. ‘I’, Liunter lald back hls head and burst out lnughing. ‘Lhe galle- ries roared, Senator Mason, of Virglula, was standing near the President's deak holid- inga paper. Ie turned round and looked scowlingly over hls spectacles as It to rebuke tho {-thned merriment, but ina moment his fentures reluxed, a broad grin nt the palpa- ble ‘hit oversprend lls face, and in spite of himself he too joined inthe general hitar- ity. And Senator Biglor? Oh! Ilo was a Northern Democrat, Ho sat still andsmiled, —— THE HERESY HUNT, ‘Tho cnse of the Kev, Dr, ‘Thomas has nt Inst been brought beforo the Kock Myer Conference, snd the Conference, though not pronouncing definitly upon his case, for that eannpt be done now without 0 formal trial for heresy, has defined Its position in the passage of resolutions introduced on Friday last. ‘fhese resolutions “kindly but firmly request our brother, tha Rov, Hiram W. ‘Thomas, D. D,, to withdraw from the Meth- odist Eplscopal Church: at this session of the Conference.” Tho resolutions, which were offered by the Rey. W. HL ‘Tibbals, an “ob- seura country clreult-rider,” according to his own description of limself, provoked very genural discussion, which was opencd by tho mover himself, who argued that Dr, ‘Thomas’: views on the Atonement, Futuro Punlshment, and tho Insptration of the Bible woro at vurlanco with Afethodism, and that, as Dr. ‘Thomas was honest In his expres: alon of his views, it. followed that he was irreconcilable, and in consequence should retire from the Church, ‘The lov, Dr, Ax- tell, while agreeing with the general sentl- ment of the resolutions, thought that Dr. 'Thamas was simply Ilablo to Church Inves- tigation, so that it could bo ascertained If ho wera really at yarlanco with the doctrines of the Church, ‘Tho Rey.

Dr, Hatfleld mado a directassault, charging that Dr, Thomas’ sermons wero “ obstacles in the way of orthodox Methodlat ministora”; that they “verged upon blasphemy"; that thoy were constantly adding to the ranks of tho skeptics; and that lisdivergence went to the essential and fundamental doctrines of Chris- fiuntty aud Methodism, After several other expressions pro and con, Dr, Thomas him: self (ouk the floor, and promptly and vigor- ously denied that he was at variance with the doctrines of tho Mothodist Church, and Oneo more usserted his views upon the three “plvopal doctrines,” substantially oy he tad nlseady done in his farewell sermon, ond In+ dleatad his future course In thy following plain words: Now, it Ja nocossary, In order to gearch tho merity of thin cuso, that you show In sumo wuy, if you oan, whut the Methodist Church does bo Ueve on theae aubjects, and then show if 1 have ao casgntially deparwd trom tho doctrines of the Church that you cuunut indorde ine ag a tencher.

He wants his accusers to define thelr potuts of belief so that it may be shown whether his own bellefs square with them or not. le will not go Inty such a trint without friends, Forty-seven members of the Conference yoted ngalnst the resolutions, and thoy woul not haye so voted hai they not either shared Ils ylows or more or less leaned in that diree- tion, ‘They cortalnly would not lave voted to have him. remain In the Chureh and con- tinue preaching such views had they be Moved: them to be nt variance with the doctrines of tho Methodist Chirch. ‘This ts a powerful minority, and unquestionably it iga mlnority which believes ay he docs on the question of eternal punishment, whlch Is the material point at Issue, the other two being of tess importance to poor sinners. It ts, equally unquestionable that many of thosa who votwl for the resolutions did so only to preserye thalr own consistency, na they have been preaching the cternal agency of punishment where "tho worm dicth not and tue fire ig not quenched.” They com- meneed preaching this doctrine when they were young, and when beilef in it was more universal than It ig now, and they continue preavhing it because perhaps thoy fancy It 1s a dogma of the Church anu that all the mem- bership require it, So thoy are disinclined to modIfy tho teaching, and, having commlt- ted themselves to it, they drift along rather than to courageously affirm what many of them really believe, ‘Chey think it fs less of a dilema to vote to turn Dr, Thomas out and remain preaching the doctrine of eternal matertal hell, non-repentanes after death, and an overinsting predetermined fixity of torment, than It would be to allow him to remain and preach ‘ove doctrine whieh ho docs believe, while thoy affirm another and doubt it.

Of course It Is within the op- tlon of the Conference to delegato Dr. Thomas to some obscure place, where his self-respect would compel him to withdraw; but it” is difficult to concelve that even hls worst cne- inles would subject «mun of Lis ability and purity of chnracter to such treatment, for that would smack of persecution. The only manly course it can pttrsue ts to arraign him for trial. ‘Tho trial will bo a notable one, for Dr. Thomas is not the man to stand meckly by and allow hiseaso to xo by default, ‘The Patton of tho Swing trial may bo reproduced in the Hatileld of the Thomas trial, ‘The whole public take # Ively interest In the progress of the case, ———___—_— DEMOCRATIO HARMONY ON THE TARIFF QUESTION, Favor Prohibition, W.8.
