HOW WILL INDIANA VOTE?

This question is thus answered in the Indianapolis
Journal
In 1913 Coy. Whitcomb was elected over Gov. Bigger
Mr.. Polk beat Mr. Clay two thousand votes in 1874
and in 1916 Gov. Whitcomb was elected, and since
then Gov Wright For these reasons in all the cacula
tons to the result of the Presidential election this
State is put down as certain for Pierce and King.
Whatever may have been our own opinion this sub
iect few months ago, believe that the electoral
vote of this State will be given for Gen. Scott This
opinion has been deliberately formed information de-
rived from every portion of the State Take the vote be-
tween Gen. Taylor and Gen. Cass, and the difference be-
tween them not great not to be With
all the prejudice created against Gen. Taylor account
Of the Second Indiana Regiment and because of the fact
that he Shareholder, Gen. Cass only beat him by
between four and five thousand votes Mr.. Van Buren,
received eight thousand votes twothrds of whom
were Wings. Mr.. Hale, should he remain candidate,
will not receive three thousand votes The remain
ing FIVE thousand will go back to the parties with which
they acted previous to l848.
We know the leaders of the Democratic party count
largely the increase of the foreign VOTE brought in
under the constitution. In this they will be greatly
mistaken 1t is not large they pretend will it
all for them The increased vote occasioned by the at
tanment Of weutyone years of age the part Of
young and by the emigration from other States is
but fair q psssuns, wiz be about equally divided
To enable to cast the for Gen. Scott he will re-
ceve the support of thousands Of Independents
who cannot be transferred at the viii of party leaders,
and compelled to vote for man Of whom they neves
heard until his nomination for the Presidency This
serton not founded hopes alone but from abso
lutte facts from reliable sources-there scarcely being
county in the State where there not less De-
mocrats Of this description. They will vote for General
Scott because they know that he has served his country
in the tented field and civilian in the negotiations Of
peace with great fidelity and ability and because they
know that in his hands the honor and interests of their
country will be SAFE
We believe, too, that shall be able to elect State
ticket in October but whatever may be its fate Of this
fact feel the in November win be in favor
Of Scott and Graham. Let our friends at home and
abroad remember this prediction.

FROM MEXICO

The Southern mail brings little later intelligence
from Mexico via Tampco The most interesting item is
the PRONUNCIATION of decree, dated city of Mexico Au
gust p relative to the Tehuantepec route The decree
states that the time for the reception Of proposals for
opening the road the shmus had been extended
the Both of August and that the period allowed for the
conclusion of the road from the time of its

ment does not Judge it convenient to day for the
opening of the bids the principle which it has been
compelled to adopt for their examination before declaring
its preference.
The excitement in regard to the usurpaon by Cardenas
of the Governorship of the State of Tamaulpas still
tnped On the Sd, the Legislature which appears to be
entirely subservent to the will of Cardenas issued de-
comforting upon the Governor whatever powers
be required to repress the revolutionary spirit exhibited
at Tampico and other parts of the State.
On the 5th majority of the ayuntamiento issued an
address to the citizens Of Tampco which they preface by
quotation from Samuel Adams as follows:
My decided opinion that should persist in struggling
for liberty and for social rights and guarantees although
by revelation from heaven it would be communicated to
that nine hundred and ninety out of thousand had to
perish and but single free survive and retain his ber

After brief but comprehensive summary of the pre-
sent state of affairs in Tamaupas, the ayunamento de-

gress declare the election of Senior Cardenas null and
void to avoid further misfortunes that will inevitably

OHIO ALL RIGHT.

An intelligent man of high character, who has been
travelling for several months past through the State Of
Ohio brings us most cheering reports Of SCOTS prospects
in that great State He says that the detection from the
Democratic ranks in the southern part Of the State is
very great, whilst the Wings united and enthusiastic
for Scott.
Our intelligent informant further that in
every county Of the Reserve the vote for Scott win be
considerably increased any recent exhibition Of Wing
strength He ventures the opinion, with emphasis and
perfect confidence that Ohio will give Scott majority Of
$4,000 votes over Pierce
We give this account from Ohio as Of great value be-
cause 1t comes from wenformed and reliable source
and its facts and conclusion corroborate the statements
made by the Ohio members Of our Wing Convention. We

harmonious, and determined The State nominations
just made at Syracuse giving friends fresh
age and new vigor and from this time forward they will
battle earnestly and Unnecessarily dspung every inch with
their old enemy.
The nominations received with enthusiasm, and
without murmur Of discomfort All feel that the ticket
is strong worthy to be associated in the great
contest with the of ScoTT and GRAHAM In every
part of the State the nominations will be promptly and
heartily responded to.
This the time to enter earnestly and thoroughly
the alimportant work of organization Without this the
party numerically the strongest by all Odds may be
beaten and most shameuly Indeed depends
entirely upon complete systematic pains taking organiza
ton, not only in every town. ward and county, but in
every school district throughout the State The Wings
must enter earnestly and generally upon this
tia work The enemy is alert watchful, and strong in
organization well in numerical force. 1t is always
hard job to beat him, but with perfect organization
and entire unanmity we can do IL.

THE PROSPECT

The question is continually asked what the pros
poets of Scots election and have but reply
make and that is every thing looks bright We have
hesitation in saying, if untoward event in the
month of October, that next November will WINFIELD
Soorr elected President of the United States.
The upon which ground our opinion arise
from the energy of the Wings themselvesfrom their in
creasng union-and from the changes that hear are
daily taking place in every part Of the country.
The union of the Wing party upon their nominee is be-
coming firm every day. Even those few that
at first dissatisfied with the nomination. desired the
of other candidate daily giving in their
adhesion Scott and declaring that other could
command such vote from the Wing party.
The defectons from the ranks Of the enemy reported

take Western Wing paper but what contains such
The Scott vote will be much larger every where
at the West than the Wing VOTE 1t is on these de
fections that reckon Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and
Wisconsin States very likely 60 for Scott and Ohio
and Pennsylvania certain.
Then look at our opponents. They are fighting about
Temperance in Maine about Coalition in Massachusetts,
and about Barnburnersm, Canalism and several other
obscure and not well understood Of quarrel in New
York That latter State is dead loss to Locofocoism
from the feuds existing in the party while the results
the harmonious Convention of the Wings show that they
will all pull together this November.
There is, them every to take courage at the
PROSPECT. Nothing, now but failure in systematic
