Indiana State Sentinel

Subsidizing Mr. Cravens.

"The 'Sentinel' intimates that if the correspondence which took place between Mr. Cravens and the editor of the Journal were published, the 'subsidizing' would be established, and asks that it may be done. If Mr. Cravens sees proper, he is at perfect liberty to publish all our correspondence on the subject, as we are confident that nothing will be found in it compromising the political integrity of either Mr. Cravens or ourselves, and certainly nothing to justify the charge made by the Sentinel."—Journal.

We have thus, at this late day, after having repeated the statement for weeks, an acknowledgement from the Editor of the Journal, that he did have some sort of correspondence with Mr. Cravens on this subject. He is willing now, less than a month before the election, to permit that correspondence to see the light. He refused to do this in May last; but now, we suppose, he feels certain that, whatever the correspondence may prove, it will reach the people at too late a period to produce any effect. Let this be as it may, we hope Mr. Cravens will assent to the publication of the letters at once, and that he will send us copies of them. Other whig leaders corresponded with Mr. Cravens on the same subject. We wish they may assent to the publication of their letters, either before or after the election. Will they assent to this? If so, let them notify Mr. C. of the fact.
