The following extracts (says the Alba
NY Argus) from an article in the New
York Helald, under the head "Money
Market" is not the less entitled to notice
at this moment because it expresses the
opinions Of Whig editor in reference TO
the policy recommended by the messages
referred to, and to the probable effect Of
that policy upon State credits abroad:
eff we look to the probable effect Of
the messages of Governor Seward and
Porter, and the message of the President,
we must perceive at once that the first
mentioned document, in consequence Of
the andiminishcd zeal with which it ur.
ges all extension Of the improvement and
stock systems, at time when The holders
in Europe are already staggering be-
meath the quantity on the market, must
exert every unfavorable influence on the
character of the securities. While the
two last mentioned State papers take
decidedly opposite ground, and urge
cessation OF borrowing and the necessity
Of finding in some other sources the means
Of paying the interest already accumulat-
ed. Gov. Porter states expressly that the
debts of the Stale no10 contracted must be
paid at all hazards, not by borrowing, but
by taxation. Gov. Seward recommends
borrowing S23,G00.000 more, and trusts
to an increase of business on the canals
to pay the interest. Which doctrine is

almost forget to answer me, in her absor-

and to say what the occasion demanded,
her eyes woIld not be withdrawn from the
tiny face. Conversation on any subject
but the ever new theme of "babies," was

PENNSYLVANIA.

On comparing our table of Congress
sional returns with some since receiv-
ed, we find such a discrepancy, that
we do not like to publish it. 1t is ev-
ident that the Wings have gained
largely on the vote of 1888, and also
on that of 1886.
We speak not only our opinion, but
that Of many others, when we say that
the prospect of carrying Pennsylvania
for Harrison and Tyler is now almost
as good as that of carrying Ohio. In
the latter State we shall have a larger
majority than in Pennsylvania, but both
will vote for Harrison.
If any one doubts that, let him look
back two months, and enquire, would
he, atthat time, venture to predict, that
in the election Of the 18th of October,
the anti-Van Buren, men would carry a
majority of both Houses of the Legis-
lature? And yet they have done it.
In 1886, the Van Buren, COMPRESSION

MISSISSIPPI GONE FOR HARRISON
The election for Presidential Elec-
tors, took place in this State on Mon
day and Tuesday last, and from what
we can learn has resulted triumphantly
in favor Of Harrison and Reform.
In this county where Locofocoism
had for years previous to the fall OF
1889 been largely in the ascendancy
this county which in 1886 gave a
majority of 1877 to Van, Buren,, when
his majority in the whole State was
only 391, has not only TIED him in
the present contest, but has given a
majority of one against him,-one did
we say, aye upon a strict county cote
more than ONE HUNDRED! This the
Locofocos knew, and to prevent il
made their arrangements for voters to
come from the adjoining counties by
scores, that they might have it to say
that the vote was a close one in this
county, but which will make no differ
ence in the general result.
Yes, we proclaim it, that Locofoco-
ism in Lowndes county, in MISSIS-
SIPPI, is dead dead dead thai
our victory is complete! Then how
great must be the confusion and shame
Of our opponents, who have left nc
stone unturned-who resorted TO every
means however foul, to carry tnei
point; who heaped calumny foul ant
iendish without stint, upon the char
acter of the patriot Harrison that the,
might succeed-all of which is hurlet
back in their teeth by the giant arm o
the people as the basest falsehood.
