We have endeavored to cast up his prospects

chances are better than ours, in Maine, MlssIs-
sippi, and Michigan, allowing him which, and his
vote would stand in the aggregate sirty-three !!
Our adyices from them, however, lead us to be-
lieve that the battle in each will be ardently and
closely contested; and we are not to be surpris-
ed, if they all vote for Henry Clay.
The recent canvass in Pennsy vania has salts
fed all thinking and candid men how her vote
will be disposed of on the LIST of November. All
the veteran and accomplished Locofoco politicians
openly conceded before the election that, unless
Skunk carried the State by $4,000 as the mini
mum, it could not be made to vote for Mr.. Polk
The official returns will reduce his majority be-
low 5000, or less than one: fourth of the above
estimate, and we now like to understand upon
what premises free trade victory is to be predi-
Gated upon in Pennsylvania. But there are other
striking facts which 60 to show that the party
line was not distinctly drawn, and that the Wing
vote is not manifest upon the gubernatorial ticket
by many thousands. In the counties composing
Pollock's Congressional district Skunk received
majority Of 800 or 900 votes, and yet Pollock,
the Wing Congressman, is elected upon party
grounds by nearly 200, thus developing at least
1000 votes in favor of Mr.. Clay in one district.
We have not the data before us, but believe the
same result will be found in the districts to which
Burlington, Stewart, and others have been chosen.
crease her vote thousand, and that all the west
ern Wing counties will render better account
than they did in 1910. Taking all these facts in
connection with the exertions made for Skunk by
some of Mr.. Clay's friends in the different coun-
ties, and we can speak Of Pennsylvania as
Wing State by 5000 votes. .
Virginia will do her part in contributing to the
elevation Of one 10 whom she gave birth in OBJ
security and poverty, but who by his own merit
has raised himself to the first rank Of living great
ness. There has been a Wing gain of 1900 be-
tween Richmond ard Lynchburg, and the north
and southwestern portions of the State will of
themselves overcome Van Buren's majority in
f840, SO that Virginia may be relied upon as good
for 1000 majority for Henry Clay.
Georgia, about which the Locofocos will have
short-lived hurrah, will march up to the rescue
in formidable and patriotic phalanx. We look
to her for something near 5000 of clear profit up.
on the canvass. o7
Thus it is apparent, that Mr.. Polk cannot be
elected, come what may. .s
Let us recapitulate according to two principles
first giving to Mr.. Clay and Mr.. Polk the
" doubtful" States for which they have the best
chances, and then by giving Mr.. Polk all the
doubtful States, and then look at the final igur-
ing up

Thus it will be seen that Mr.. Clay's election

spoken, with the exception Of New York, which

80 that with all the doubtful" in favor of the
Locoiocos' Mr. Clay would still have a majority
OF 43 in the Electoral College. Let our friends,
then, be not deceived by the lies and frauds of a
deceltful enemy, who would resort to any means,
however base or desperate, to carry this election
and to destroy the Government. Let them be
prepared for the contest in any and every form,
and going to the polls with honest hearts and
patriotic devotion, they will return blessed with
victory, and assured of the safety and peace of
their frcsdes and their affairs.
