Of KrNrccKY Fms, of itself, is substantial
ground Of hope and security. This election, il
need not be concealed is point of peculiar inter-

will, obviously be attended with other and broader
effects. We now look forward to it with conf
dence, which, for several months, has gained new
strength, in every successive week and, if ind.
cations do not greatly deceive US, the hopes of the
Opposition, at this moment, in regard to KENTUCKY,
are efiectually shaken
We believe, then, that the votes Of KENTUCKY
are to be enumerated among those favorable to the
Administration.
Adding the votes of Kentucky to those before
mentioned, the sum total amounts to nearly one
half of all the electoral votes, and in order to en-
ess, it is only farther necessary, that the
President should receive a considerable number,
less, however, than he obtained on the former cleo
ton, of the votes Of New York. That he will
receive the requisite number of these votes we en-
terrain no doubt whatever. Information from every
part of the State, and the opinions of persons
among the most competent to judge, conspire to pro-
duce satisfaction on this point We hazard the
prediction, and we are persuaded the intelligent

| Such is the view which has convinced vs. that,
with just and proper efforts, on the part of the
friends of the Administration, there is nothing
which can be reasonably expected prevent the re-
election of the present President. Aud, for the
sake OF distnctness, we repeat our belief, that New
ENGLAND, New JERSEY, Delaware, MARYLAND,

and New YoRK, will make that event sure.
| This calculation, we know, will be attacked and
disputed Every part of it will be contradicted
and denied. Assurances ola contrary result vii, be
given, in the most positive manner and under eve-
ry form which may impose upon credulity. All this
is Of course 1t is not to be expected that adver-
sares will admit the probability of our success.

and happily through the crisis. In July the election
of members of Congress will take place in LOUIS

August, the great contest in Kentucky will be
brought to an issue and we are willing, also, to
hear the voice of KENTUCKY In the mean time,

1t will be seen, that in the foregoing estimate no.
thing has been sado Illinois, where the question will
be earnestly contested, and which, at this moment,
may be pronounced to be doubtful Stae that no.
thing has been said OF Nrgiau, in which State there
is large and rapidly increasing parry, thoroughly
opposed to the election Of the Opposition Candidate
embodying great worth. intelligence, and respecta-
billty and conducting the controversy with spirit
and activity. Nor has any thing been said of Penn
syiua'aia. An impression has been made, that this
: patriotic State has separated nerfef from her own
settled policy, and resolved committing her inter-
ests to an association of political radically hostile
to what she deems the vital principles of the Govern
ment. State, so intelligent, could be urged into
i such course only by some sudden impulse, over
coming. for the time the influence of deliberate con-
slderaon. She will naturally return to her own
principles, and her accustomed habits of king
and acting. In moment Of unsuspecting enthu-
slasm, she embraced the of military leader.
She recedes from her first choice with reluctance but
+ she does recede. Sooner later, she will resume
her proper position. Great changes, we know. have

at this moment, Of opinion that The vote Of PENN

: Nor have we said any thing of North Carolina,
one OF the most unobtrusve and respectable States
of the whole Union. She is naturally among the
very last to 60 with those who now claim her ASSOC
d citation, and demand her aid. The cause which she
seems expected to sustain, opposed to her whole
