INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 2.
In every county in Indiana to-day
there have been Liberal demonstra

terday and to-day the reports indi
cate nn unflagging interest and enthu
siasm. To-day and to-night Gov. Bi
Gratz Brown with Geo. W. Julian
appeared at Lefayette, where an ex
tempore jubilee was held, presenting
one of the most imposing demonstra
tions of the campaign. Gov.: Hen

Delphi, drew out almost the entire
population of Carroll county, the
most distant township forwarding
wagon loads of " listeners and
mounted men. ' At Kendellville,
in Noble county Gov Austin Blair
attracted quite as great a following,
and spoke in the afternoon and even
ing to undiminished numbers. ,r Col.
Grosvenor at Vincennes drew a large
audience, while at Richmond Gov.
Koerner, of Illinois, drew the masses
of his countrymen from all the neigh
boring districts, anil addressed them
in the afternoon and evening io their
language. Senators Trumbull and
Boolittle, the first at South Bend and
the latter at Newcastle, Henry county,
spoke to the Greatest crowds that
ave assembled in those counties du
ring the campaiom. ' Gov. Brown, at
Crow n Point,, aroused the Liberals of
Lake county, ... and addressed a very

THE GREAT CAHYASS IN ' OHIO;
The Great Pendleton
Speaks in Cincin
nati, A TRUMPET CALL,.
Last Monday evening the Liberal
Republicans and Democrats - of.'". Cin
cinnati held another of those large
mass meetings which havecharacter
ized the Liberal movement in that
city. Every effort to make the meet
ing a success was put forth by the
managers, and their work was well
rewarded by Ihe large gathering of
citizens. Gen. Banks and the Hon.
Geo. H. Pendleton and Gen. Durbin
Ward addressed the meeting.
Mr. Pendleton says:
Seven years have elapsed since the
war. Seven years of peace. Seven
years of Republicanism. Seven years
of Republican ascendancy. Four
years of Gen. Grant's Presidency.
This has been its opportunity. Be
hold its workl Fellow citizens, what
has been accomplished ? What claim
to public erratitude ? What title to
peace,
promised
you concora, out tnere is no concora.
We promised you a more perfect
Union, but there is no hearty Union.
We promised you f recdon through
out the land, but there can be no free
dom; there must be proscription;
there must be disfranchisement; the
South is still rebellious ; the habeas cor
pus must be suspended; the elections
must be supervised; the reconstruc
ted governments must be sustained;
the whiles are disloyal and must be sub
jected ; the negroes are loyal and must
be put over them. This is their own
testimony. i et, gentlemen, after
twelve years of power, after seven
years .of peace, this their testimony
of their own success this is their own
claim, as they themselves state it, to
a renewal of power. And they are
right, lhis is is their claim their
only claim. They state it properly
and fully.
I am no alarmist I do not magnify
ihe evil to myself I would not exag
gerate in speaking it to you, but out of
this seething mass of corruption, de
moralization, trading in office, neglect
ot duty, personal government, military
rings, rises a figure, shadowy and
vague now portentous of dire calam
ity.
Is there any Democrat who halts
and doubts as to his course? ' Is there
any one who fears for his consistency,
or doubts the duty of patriotism ? I
love the Democratic party;
its courage : I know its
I know
puritv;
I believe: in its principles; I re
vere its wisdom; when it speaks I
will obey. "All men are wiser than
one man." When its. wisdom and
fmrity shall point out the course and
ead the way, what Democrat shall
say he cannot tread that path with
honor and consistency? When its
patriotism shall counsel, what Demo
crat shall say that he is too pure to
follow the advice ? When its lof tv
spirit shall banish partisan pride, what
lemocrai, snau say n.e is too proua to
iouo w tne example r I ao not ex
pect Mr. Greeley, if elected, to give
us a partisan Administration
would not respect him if" he should
do so; it would be contrary to the
spirit of this movement, but he has
promised that he will restore a true
iraternal affection to all our people;
that he will give us purity and honesty
in Administration, and it is folly to
refuse these, because we can obtain
no more.

Fate of a Somnambulist He Falls
from a Window and Is Fatally In.
J a red.
We learn that a small colored boy, about
8 years of age, by the name of Harris Haw
kins, fell out of a second story window in
this city on Sunday night last, while under
the influence of a fit of somnambulism, and
has since died of the injuries received. He
is said to have been subject to the habit of
walking in his sleep, having frequently been
known to leave his room and go to different
parts of the dwelling and then return and
lay down without awaking. On the night
in question he was seen at the open window
by parties who resided in the adjoining
house, his form and features being rendered
distinct to their vision by the flashes of
lightning, which it will be remembered were
so frequent and vivid on Sunday night, and
it was at the moment of one of those bright
flashes of the electric fluid that they saw
him in the act of falling from the window.

Fear Cadet suits at the shortest notice, and

Dastardly Outrage.
Yesterday morning, between 7 and 8
o'clock, three colored boys were passing
the residence of Mr. P. Gillican, on the
corner of Eighth and Dock streets, when
one of them pulled a paling oft the fence
and commenced dragging it across the
others, the noise from which aroused the
dog on the premises and the ' animal set up
a furious barking. ". Mrs. Gillican, her hus
band having but a few moments before left
for his place of business, and she and the
remainder of the family being at the break
fast table, went to the dining room window
and put her head out to see what was the mat
ter. She saw the boys and knew the cause
of the disturbance, but resolved to say
nothing to them for fear they might retort
with impudence. 1 The boy who had the
paling in his hand, however, did not need
such an incentive to display his brutal in
stincts, for as soon as he discovered Mrs.
G. at the window and in the act of retiring,
he immediately hurled the paling at her,
the missile passing through the open win
dow and striking her in the back. As
tonished at this dastardly assault, made
upon her without the slightest provocation
on her part, she picked up the paling and
threw it into the street, asking the boys what
they meant by acting in that outrageous
manner and remarking that if a policeman
were near she would have them arrested.
In the meantime the boy had again seized
the paling and while she was still
speaking he for the second time hurled
it at her, but observing his motions she
withdrew her head and the missile struck
the window and fell into the yard. Being
now thoroughly alarmed she retreated into
the back yard, where she narrowly escaped
being struck on the head by a rock which
was thrown at her by the same boy. After
this last attempt to inflict' injury upon her
.person the boys moved; on to perpetrate
some similar deviltry in another quarter.
Nothing but the most unmitigated villainy
could have prompted, such' conduct, asMrs.
G, Is said to be one of the last persons to
provoke insult or ill-treatment at the hands
of anvone.' ' - ' ' "
.TVe should have stated "in the proper
place that the ringleader of the' party used
very insulting-language to Mrs. ' Gillican in
connection with the outrage referred to.
