Here are three votes more than the number
required to elect Gen. Scott, and they are all
from States that will soon be, if they are no.
now, generally conceded to him. Then there
is a strong probability of his carrying all, or
nearly all, of the following States:

"1hus it may truly be said that the "skies
are bright" for grand Wing victory this fall.
That there will be change of feeling for Gen.
Scott at the South is also daily becoming more
apparent, as the Wing platform, which has
been constructed by a Wing administration,
cannot fail to be more satisfactory to the South
than tue resolutions Of the Democratic Conven,
ton, which were not formally acted upon by
its members"
Soho is next 10 certain for Scott. The
Tribune has also strong hopes of "every North

we do not despair OF carrying her, As to
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, we can hoar Of

In OUT columns to-day, will be found
the proceedings Of the late Parkers-

Mr.. Swans speech was received with
great applause and approval, and the
requisite stops taken 10 secure the ne.
ccssary subscription. The names of

stock subscriptions were not announc-
edduring the meeting. Mr.. [utr"be's
report, extracts from which were read
by Mr.. Swan, is very undressing, asst
gives q full statelnentsof tho state and
progress of the work. The length of
the road is one hundred and three and
two.third miles. The route chosen
is the northern route. The highest
grade of the road is | foot in 100, or
52.s fcetpermile. 'Thelongest stretch
Of the highest grade, is $40 miles
There are 70 miles of grades ranging
from s9.6feet per mile downIto level.
The smallest curvature adopted is OF,
u radius of. 1000 feet, through which
passcngcrtrains can run at high speed,
with perfect safety. The cost of the
road will not be over S3,5c0, uO0.-
The cost oflocomolive, cars, &C., will
be S52S,0OO. These arc the leading
features Of the, report. Altogether,
the speech is a very able document,

two days! They then practice the
same game in some other quarter, and
SO on to the end of the chapter. Now
it is certain that Editors should pro.
tect themselves against these scamps,
and there are but two ways to do SO.
The oneis, to refuse credit altogether;
and the other is to publish a Black
List occasionally.
We shall use our own discretion as
to a choice of remedies, but for the
present insert the following:
"Richt wrongs no one," is an old
maxim,-but in the face of it Ger.
tain Arnold Wright, of Barbour coun'
ty, 10 whose address our paper has
been sent nearly two years, without
pay, now refuses to take it out Of
the Office" as the P. NJ. informs US.
ANoraEE.-J B.Ddacer has taken
one of our papers almost a year, and
left without forking over" The P.
NJ. writes as follows:-
"Thc veritablc Mr.. ]. b.
Dancer, one evening danced into the
Office, with a brick in his hat, and
wanted to know if there wasn't a cart
load of papers in the Office for him.
j told him there was, and 90 cents
postage in tho bargain. He danced
up the postage like man, and l dane.
edhim out tho papers, and no danced
out Of the office, and that's the last

Plain Talk.

The editor Of Tho New York Tribune,
reviewing the history Of that paper and the
position il sustains towards the Wing par.
is. says: I'VE 20 with ii so furas II seems
10 be going right, and recognize no obi.
CATION 10 go further. We ask Of iino pa.
Ironsgc and desire no man TO take or ad.
yrrise in our paper unless he shall be
satisfied that in so doing he receives the
full worth Of his money. We are proud
Of the large circulation and advertising
accorded to US, but we have slryen fairly
10 earn it, and recognise no right in any
'pa,rDn' 10 control or 10 engross these
columns"
These are the sentiments Of an honest
man; one, whatever may be his eccen.
,ricilies, deserves credit for his indepen-
dence OF character, and for his determine
ton TO "go ahead" wheneyerhe thinks
he sis right" If the country only had a
few more such editors; men. who despise
trucking 10 demagogues, ulid who spurn
dictaiion, come from whatever source it
may, we are inclined TO think the Press
would sustaina much more creditable re-
putation for honesty and independence
