The Prospect.

A11O - VA
Ever since the present national campaign
commenced, the prospect of the triumphant
success of the democratic party has been bright
and cheering. Never more so than at the
present moment We do not say this in a
spirit of boasting, for that spirit belongs TO the
whig party, but from fair and calm survey OF
members Of the democratic party holding DIFF
ferent opinions on minor subjects, come TO-
geiher with so much unanimity. The latest
information from all parts of the country speaks
Enthusiastically the success of PIERCE and KING.
We give few extracts to show the severity
of the ague fit under which the wing party IS
suffering. A gentleman just returned to Maine
from visit TO the State of New York, says
the democrats are sure of the State. The par
ty is united, hunkers and barnburners coming
together like men to accomplish victory for

majority. Everything hereabouts points that
way"
A correspondent of the Boston Post says
New York is good for 90, coo majority.

one of the most active democrats in Ohio. He
says ''Scott's reception occasoned no enthusi-
asn, and we are as confident as ever, though
not less active. Rely "pOn Ohio. Greeley

Houston and Judge Douglas" The recep-
ton of General Scott in Ohio was cold and dis
dainfnl. The people there were displeased
with the fact that the commander of the army
should enlist in the mean cause Of advancing
the principles of federalism. .....

FROM MARYLAND. This State gave Taylo
about 5000 plurality in 1913. One of Tho
most eminent democrats now writes :-"Tt

Scott would not carry eight States at the No

Washington Union, writing from Baltimore
under date of Sept. 29ih, says ''news come:
in from all parts of the State cheering TO The

will be deeply felt"
From New JERSEY The eloquent letter o
Com Stockton to the New Jersey democrat:

in motion Three democratic mass meeting:
were held in the State last week. AT Bor

Wright has gone over TO the democrats anc
carried with him a considerable wing Of The
wing party. Whiggery is in a feeble condi
ton, and her seuen electoral votes may be safe
ly counted for Pierce and King.
FROM KENTUCKY. The Louisville Journa
is frightened about Kentucky. The wings
arc asleep-he democrats full of zeal and ac-
tivity. The Journal says it never knew the
wing party of Kentucky to be SO utterly disor-
ganized, and by the most pathetic appeals i,
strives to rally them to the support of Scott
This is very significant. When the Louis
vile Journal expresses doubts as to the result
in Kentucky, the democracy may confidently
calculate upon victory. sa.aH u.,j ...-.
FROM VIRGINIA. The Washington UnjoI
says the idle boasting of the whig press ha
reused the democracy Of the Old Dominion
from that apparent apathy into which they ha
been iulled by the confidence of an easy vic
tory The best champions of the democratic
cause are in the field, zealously and cloquentl
sustaining the cherished principles from whic
Virginia never swersed, and the noble cand
