York will 60 for Scott by $4,000 majority
and that Pennsylvania will give him even
a greater majority than this it is deemed
almost useless 70 deny. But Hale is nom
mated. and Ohio is lost to the Wings.
| Reid is elected. and Scott i not absolute
ly certain of North Carolina. Thus is
Pierce in fact elected.
Upon this sandy foundation Is reared
the vast fabric of hope, and expectation,
and Boosting, that Just now fills the Loco
FOcO newspapers. 1t is fabric that the
first autumn blast from the North already
shakes, and that the November gales will
scatter in a thousand fragments. and leave
no wreck behind. There is no ground
for believing that that old, steady Whig
State of North Carolina is about to cayors
into the arms Of Loco FOcoism. Local
issues and side influences have given an
unioward aspect to her politics in the
State election but to affirm that they
indicate any fundamental change in her
political opinions and relations, is to mako
an utterly gra,uitous assumption. To
suppose that North Carolina is to desert
of sudden without cause, not only the
National party she has 50 long and SO
consistently supported, and to whose can
didates she has so steadily given her votes,
ia defeat as well as in success; but is also
TO desert from the support Of her fayOrite
son, from whom she has never been in the
slightest measure alienated, is SUPPOSE
ton too impossible and too gross to be en-
teitained for single instant.
In regard to ohio, our Loco Foco breth-
rem are not less surely doomed to have
their green hopes frost-nipped. And with
their hopes of Ohio will 20 tue last remains
of all that has turned up to give them
the fleeing encouragement that has tenn
porarily enlivened their spirits and re-
lieved their depressed and despairing anti
cipations. The little timely windfall will
have all become dissipated, and the spec
ter of ruin will again renewedly appa their
vision, when Ohio shall speak, as she soon
will. We know that the Wings of Ohio
will have harder battle to fight than they
would have had if Chase had been noml-
mated. But that they will ,ciR, we have
an undoubting confidence. Our adyices all
lead us to this conclusion. Gen. SCOTT
has always been a great fayOrite in Ohio.
His personal popularity will give him
thousands of the votes of men who usual
ly vote with the Foco party. 1t will
be found to be emphatically true of Ohio,
as it will be found true of every other
State, that a noiseless under current of
prodigiOus strength, It's source lying in the
secret convictions of the patriotic masses,
will swell his vote everywhere beyond all
ordinary expectation. The thousands and
tens Of thousands of voters in the Loco
Foco ranks who will quietly deposit their
ballots for Gen. ScoTT, like the same
thousands and tens of thousands who
voted for Harrison and for Taylor, arc
not known and never will DO known in
the detail But they are the men whose
votes infallibly count They do not belong
to the storm stayed class. They vote, rain
or shine. That swelling under current of
suffrage breaking asunder all partisan linn
its. will as assuredly bear Gen. Scott into
the Presidential chair az it carried Gen.
Harrison and Gen. Tay lOr thither. But
setting aside these considerations of n gen.
eral nature pointing so emphatically to
this result, we have the cool and deliberate
calculations of the most udicious and
careful observers and prOgnosticators, that
under any circumstances the Western Re-
serve " i'll give to Scott not less than 1000
maority-a calculation thar gives the State
to Scott beyond peradventure, and with
ont the half even of the adventurous aids
TO which we have referred.
How ludicrous then appear the Jump
ing conclusions Of our sanguine political
Micawbers-whO habitualy believe, even
under the most desperate circumstances,
that something must turn up" in their
fayor-that Hale's nomination actually Sc
cures the vote Of Ohio to Pierce. and that
therefore the battle is already won The
conclusion in both its parts is simply a
FOOLS conclusion
