A NEW MOVE.

After passing a resolution one day last
week to dispense with the printing of the
Daily Slips, for the sake of economising,
DR. Mason of Du Buque on Tuesday Of.
iered resolution, not to rescind the for
mer one, but to have the slips printed as
usual; which, after some debate, was laid
on the table. On yesterday he called it
up again, when, after some discussion,
MIR Miller of Lee, offered the following
amendment strike out all after the word
Resolved, and insert "That James G..
Edwards be employed 10 print the Jour
nal of the House for reasonable, usual
and just price, provided he furnish the
House with the Daily Slips, aUithout
charge"
Surely the political economists of the
House cannot ask to have the Printing
done cheaper than that We understand
that the subject was laid on the table, on
the motion Of Mr. LETTER, until to-day.
TO test the sincerity of those Van Buren,
members who seem so anxious to pro-
mote economy, and to avoid all misrep-
resentation on this subject, we hereby
agree to print the Daily Slips on the terms
proposed, provided the copy of the slips
be so corrected and prepared as to enable
US to print the Journal from the same.

ILLIN OILS.

Although we shall not advise our friends
to crow, still we think there is evidence
on which to found hope that Harrison
has carried the State. From the various
papers and slips received at this office,
we are enabled to publish the majori,ies
of all the counties but 80. These show
large Harrison gain. We have placed
the aggregate popular August vote of
of these 80 Counties in connection with
the others, and if there be no change
in the counties yet to be heard from and
the returns thus far received are correct,
Harrison will carry the State by major
ity of four hundred and forty.

THE GREAT BATTLE.

The returns come in slowly. The
Harrison gain has been considerable in
Missouri, as far as heard from, although
we of course can not hope for the politi-
cal regeneration of that State.
Illinois has done nobly. and we have
some hope that she is disenthralled.
The few returns we have received from
Ohio and Pennsylvania, show decided
gain for H arrison. Hamilton county Ohio,
gave an increased majority for Harrison
over Corwin. We know of no one who
doubts the certainty Of Harrison's cleo
ton.
