PROGRE'SS UP ELECTIONS.

John M. Palmer, the Republican candidate for
Governor of Illinois, has a good reputation as a
soldier and as an officer of ability ; and John
Doherty, who aspires to be Lieutenant-Governor,
though known before the war as the Democratic
" war-horse of Egypt," is now in the Republican
ranks. John A. Logan is Republican candidate
for Congress Man at large. Norman B. Judd,
the friend of Lincoln, and once Minister
to Berlin, hopes fur re-election for the first dis-
trict. General John F. Farnsworth is the can-
didate for the seccn I district. He left the
House of Representatives when the war broke out,
and raised and commanded the Bth Illinois Cavalry,
Elihu B. Washburne, of Galena, Grant's home,
goes in for the third district. His friendship fur
his neighbour, the coming President, is well known.
General Johu-B. Hawley runs for the fourth dis-
trict ; for the fifth the present incumbent, E. C.
Ingersoll, expects to be re-elected, as he has been
thrice before ; and so does Benton C. Cooke, of
Ottawa, for the sixth district, where he has twice
been successful. The Republican candidate for the
seventh district is Jesse H. Moore, of Decatur,
who rose from the ranks to the grade of General
during the War. Shelby 11. Cullom, of Spring-
field, contests the Eighth District for the third
time. He was speaker of the State Assembly, and
is an energetic party man. Leopard F. Ross con-
tests the :Ninth District, with his brother Lewis
ROES, the present member, and the Democratic
candidate, but with little hope of success. Jona-
than B. Turner, of Jacksonville, a scientific farmer,
runs against A. G. Burr, the Democratic candidate
and present member, but without a shadow of a
chance. For the leventh District James M.
Martin, of Salem, strives against .Mr. Mar-
shall, the Democratic nominee, and present
member, who is pretty sure of re-election. John
B. Hay, of Belleville, is the nominee for the
twelfth district. His family has been settled in the
State for a long time, and his father was a success-
ful local politician. The last district, the thirteenth,
known as Egypt, being the extreme south of
Illinois, and bounded by the Ohio and Mississippi,
will re-elect Green B. Raum, a distinguished officer.
From this list it appears that most of the Republi-
can candidates of Illinois have been distinguished
in the war. Many of them are now the members
for their districts ; three of the 13 are considered
by the Demockats as certainly theirs, and are con-
ceded by the Republicans. But the State will, be-
yond doubt, go strongly Republican, tha more so
as it is Grant's own State. Although the Democrats
have not the faintest hope of carrying the State, they
do hope tolessen theformer Republican majority. In
1864 Lincoln's majority was 30,766 ; in 1866 Gen..
Logan was elected Congressman at large by a ma-
jority of 55,987, defeating Colonel Dickey by that
number in a total vote of 350,103. Although the
Republ:cans are sanguine, estimating their majo-
rity at from 40,000 to 50,000, it is not likely to
amount to E uch a number as in the election of 1866.

Last year lowa elected the Republican candidate,
Colonel Merrill, Governor, by 30,000 majority. In
her Presidential elections she gave 8,000 of a
majoril for Fremont iu 1856, and 40,000 for
Lincoln in 1864. General Williamson, the dele-
gate who cast the vote of lowa at the Chi-
cago' Convention, for General Grant 1 romised
a majority of 50,000, which, although then con-
sidered extravagant, is now said, by sanguine Re-
publicans not to be so. The question of impartial
suffrage comes before the- people this year for
settlement. The last two General Assemblies hav-
ing affirmatively passed upon the subject, the matter
will now be decided by a popular vote upon an
amendment to the Constitution proposing to strike
the word " white" therefrom wherever it occurs in
relation to suffrage, and will unquestionably be
carried. The election will not be held till Nov. 3,
and it is thought that there will be 200,000 votes
polled for the presidential tickets. The Republicans
count on gaining Michigan, which last year was
divided on local and side issues, and they announce
that harmony bas been restored, and the vote will
be heavy for Grant. Senator Doolittle has been
working effectively in the Democratic interest in
Wisconsin. In Delaware the campaign is active,
and the Republicans even flatter themselves that
there is a prospect of electing General Torbet to
Congress. They state that the Democrats are
divided between the Bayard and the Salisbury par-
, ties, and that if they split the State may be carried
for Grant. Colorado has elected a Republican de-
legate to Congress by a majority of 100, which
would have been greater but for the fight caused
by the Indian raids. In New York city the elec-
tion districts have been increased to 340, so that
there will be no lack of opportunity to vote. It is
estimated that the city will throw about 130,000
votes. Of these the Republicans claim 45,000, giv-
ing the Democrats a majority of 40,000. The
Democrats estimate, the Republican vote as less than
25,000, and expect a majority of 75,000 or more.
In North Carolina many white Republicans are at
work for Grant and Colfax, which is believed to be
due more to a revival of the ancient enmity between
old Whigs and Democrats than to any love of the
Republican platform. The State, it is thought,
may go Republican. Even Connecticut is said
now to be inclining towards Republicanism. Town-
ship elections were to be held on the sth inst., but
as these come off beforethe great events on the 13th
they will probably not clearly indicate what the
State will do when the main contest is decided.
The Massachusetts Republicans have nominated
for members of Congress, Messrs. Dawes, Twichell,
Butler, and Banks, in the tenth, third, fifth, and
sixth districts respectively, and all will probably
be re-elected. The candidate for Presidential
elector in the tenth district is M. B. Whitney, of
Westfield; in the third, William Whiting, of
Boston ; in the fifth, James M. Buffum' of Lynn ;
and in the sixth, George Coggswell, of Bradford.
The Irishmen of the fifth Congressional district of
New York City have brought forward George
Francis Train as their representative to run against
JohnMorrissey. Patrick Crowe being elected chair-
man, addressed the meeting at the Botanic Hall,
No. 68, East Broadway, and said, "It was au au-
spicious day for the country to put forward such a
man as Train, under whose lead the Irish would
soon be freed from the hated English rule." Gen.
Nagle, on entering, was loudly cheered. He said
he would be ungrateful not to support his old friend
Train, through whose influence he had been libe-
rated from an Irish Prison. Train was ahead
of the times and of all politicians. It was he who
conceived the idea of the Pacific Railway ; it was he
who invented the greenback theory which politicians
had stolen from him. He is the same man at six
in the morning and at midnight, and I hope to see
this meeting put through his nomination. Senator
Bradley endeavoured to oppose Train's nomination,
but failed to obtain a hearing. Resolutions were
adopted advocating the nomination of George F.
Train as a friend of the people, as opposed to taxa-
tion, as an adherent of the Irish nation, as inte-
rested in the great Pacific Railroad. A letter was
received from Stephen J. Meany, indorsing the
nomination of Mr. Train. It was moved and car-
ried that a Train Club be formed and a roll opened.
The Soldiers and Sailors' Convention in Philadel-
phia, on Friday, Oct. 2, was one of the grandest
affairs ever seen even in that great city. Fully
20,000 soldiers marched in a column five miles long
with martial music, beneath flags riddled in battle.
Chesnut, Walnut, Arch, Broad, and Market streets
were lined with myriads. Burnside, Kilpatrick,
Owen, ;Geary, Sickles, Hawley, Howard, Cham-
berlain, and many more well-known officers were
there. There were meetings of governors and ex-
governors ; banquet at the Union League ; torch-
light processions, serenades, and as for speeches !
there never were such speeches. Altogether the
affair was a great success.

Mr. Gladstone is still hard at work. On VirednesdaY be
aedressed two meetings—one at Ormskirk, the other at
Southport. The Irish Church formed the subject of the
bulk of his first speech. He prefaced it, however, with a
reference to county financial arrangements. He thought
the time was come for a change in the law. " Our law with'
respect to local rates and expenditure is, like many other
of our laws, far from being symmetrical or scientific in its
construction. . . The persons who administer the rates
are the magistrates of the county, in the choice of whom the
ratepayer has no share or part whatever. Now, gentlemen,
I own that I am of opinion that representation in all these
matters of expenditure is a good and sound principle. It
is the old principle of our Constitution generally, both
imperial and local. lam friendly, nut because there is no
clamour on the subject, but I am friendly because it
would give a control to the ratepayers in the choice of
their representatives over the expenditure of the rates by
those who pay them. It implies no disparagement of
those who have exercised their discretion, but I believe
the operation would be good, and would tend to enlighten
the public mind on some difficult and threatening ques-
tions that are coming forward as to the relation between
the local and the imperial expenditures and the expe-
diency of throwing the local rates upon the public treasury."
Mr. Gladstone's remarks on the Irish Church occupy
nearly three columns. He repeated the old, old argu-
ments, and added little that was new. One passage is
worth noting : " The very object of every champion of the
Church of Ireland is this, and the first words that proceed
from his lips are these : `Forget the past.' He cannot, he
dare not, openher previous history. She has been heart and
part in all the worst and most shameful matters of English
policy towards Ireland. When the penal laws were passed
the Irish bishops were in the House of Lords passing those
penal laws. Then remember the tithe war, when the
people were shot down for the collection of dues, which
were indeed to be legally exacted, but which were to go
to the ministers of an alien religion. Is it possible you can
venture to call up these recollections? No. You are
compelled to exclude the whole of the past from the
case of the Church of Ireland in order to be able to argue
for it at all."

At the second meeting, in the evening, at Southport,
the topics which the right hon. gentleman touched upon
were the expenditure, and again the Irish Church. On
the former subject he repeated the arguments over again
which he used at Leigh. "We have had much controversy
during the election," said he, " upon the subject of finance,
a controversy which I did my best to light up by a charge of
a specific and definite nature. I was so far successful in the
object I have in view that a correspondence began between
Mr. Cross, the Conservative candidate for the county, and
her Majesty's Chancellor of the Exchequer, of which we
were permitted to see the results in the public prints.
Thereupon I endeavoured to supply Mr. Cross, at a meet-
ing at Warrington last week, with fresh matter fora further
correspondence, and my belief is, although I cannot tell
you as a matter of fact, that further correspondence
has been actively prosecuted, but that it has been thought
better not to put the results in the newspapers." On the
question of the Irish Church, too, little, if anything, new
was adduced. Mr. Gladstone managed to keep his hearers
interested for an hour and ten minutes.
