Congressional Canvass.

The Journal of the 29th contained an article under
the above head the object of which was, of course,
TO puff the wing at the expense of the democratic
candidates. The same process of pufIery APP
piled to the whole batch,-and that was simply to
express the belief that nearly all the wing candidates
would be elected. But there is discrepancy between
the et and the conclusion of the article, which very
concusvely shows that the Journal does feel
idence in its own assertions For instance accord
ing to the Journals tect, it calculates the election
Of no less than eight members, among which are Mr..
McCarty, with majority of about thousand against
him. But its article concludes thus:
From view of the whole ground, then, there is
n certainty Of the election of Messrs. SMITH and
THOMPSON, and strong probability of the election of
Messrs. PRATT, DAVIS, HACKLEMAN and EWING,
which, should it occur, will make the next delegation
IN the lower House of Congress, from this State, six
wings, and four democrats
This we consider as much as TO admit that Mr..
McCarty has no chance, after all; and for once we
think the Journal is about right. Smart, any how!
