DECEPTION OF THE TORY PRESS.
1t is truly amusing to witness the contor-
ton and writings of the Tory press at their
defeats. They have been, for so long time
declaring that their party was about to carry
nearly every State in the Union, that they
really began to believe their own falschoods
and the overwhelming extent of their defeat
so far exceeding their worst fears creates a
corresponding disappointment and chagrin
which they cannot conceal. 1t is laughable
to hear the New York Post declaring it never
imagined their party would carry Indiana,
the very day after it had published bragg
ging and lying letter in its columns from a
Tory member of Congress, stating that the
election Of Howard was conceded on all hands
Its readers must feel very much obliged to it
for the hoax which it thus acknowledges it
played off upon them by giving as truth wha,
it did not credit.
So the Boston Morning Post talks abou,
the cxutation of the Wings, because they
arc not beaten in their strong-holds. And
yet this same paper has been humbugeins
Its readers into the belief that their party
were going to carry Indiana by majority of
from seven to ten thousand. The following
letter published by that paper will show
either its confident hopes or its knavery.-
| Correspondence Of the Boston .Norning Post
Extract Of letter dated
| ISDrASAPoLis, June %, 1870
TEL our friends that Indiana, the boosted castle Of
Harrison, Is coming 10 the rescue and | think the.
erect OF our victory here on the Sd of August must be
great all over the eastern States, proving that Harri-
ron has not the strength in the west his friends have
| boosted Of every where.
Eyer since the display at Tippecanoc, the Wings
nave becn gradually sinking into the dahl cold col
apsed stage of bilious disease their energies are c1
haustcd and ,heyare evidently Discouraged whilst
the democracy after having stood for time on I'll
defensive, during which whole time they have been
| constantly gaming, are now most CALAMITY assainy
Wmlggery IN all IT'S strong holds and am sure of a
| brilliant victory in August, as of any vet recurring
only time to developc, We shall elect Gen Howard
by at least 1000 majority, probably more and receive
majority IN both branches of the LEGISLATURE
The deception practiscd by the Tory pa
pcrs relative to Indiana was universal

cnco joined in the conspiracy to cheat ami
deludc thopeopc. The Albany Argus pub
llshed letter from Indianapolis written "by
gentleman cfhigh standing" "wcN &C.

Stato," on the 25h June last. The follow.
ing is an extract.
r. Il have full confidence that the democrats will elect
zen Howard, the democratic candidate for Governor
IN August, and give the vote of the State to Martin
Van Buren, IN November. Every day the FederaIists
are losing votes by their Incorporate conduct
We have already referred to the shame
iul excess of villany on the pact of the Globe
in the share that paper had in this piece OF
deception. The following letter, as well as
the editorial that prcccdes it, will tell then
own shameful story of fraud and deliberate
deception. The Globe said
The REAL log cabin boys have rccoivcd r:snor,,

state seems TO be unlversa and the partv of sbo,ns
