Barbecues and free discussions are the or
der of the day, and the wing chunpions
bear themselves gallantly. A barbecue
was given at Milton, on the 10th, which
appears TO have been splendid affair. Up
wards Of thousand people attended, and
none "went dissatisfied away" Such a
part Of the State. The Philadelphia .Ameri-
can, in speaking of the prospects of Gener-
al Scott in Ohio, says: EVERY successive
piece ofintelligence from that State confirms
the belief that he will carry it in the COM
| ing election by triumphant vote. The
Buckeyes" are wide awake TO the impor-
lance Of the canvass, and are battling with
hearty goodwill for the success of the glo-
rious old hero for whom they have always
SO warm and devoted an attachment. An
active Loco.oco residing at Akron-a Dem
ocratic stronghold-writing to correspond
ent here on business, incidentally says: 81
am happy to say that we had good haying
season, but now the pastures are all dried
up. As the ''prayers of the righteous
availeth much" please pray for rain as well
as for General Pierce for President-for the
.akron people all go for Scott"
New York is also sure for Scott and Gra-
ham. The editor of the Tribune says-'It
New York don't cast her electora; vote for
Scott, we'll agree that there isn't any such
State, and never was--or that Arkansas is
more intelligent, refined and every way SUI
perior to what has been called New York. 81
One of our Southern exchanges thus talks:
The wings are gaining rapidly in the
Southern Statas, and we have no doubt Of
their carrying every Southern State that
was carried for Gen. Taylor, with the ex-
, ception of Georgia, and in that State the
tide is turning strongly in favor of the reg
ular nominations. Senator Dawson and 9
great number of the best speakers in the
: State, are addressing the people in the sew
, eral counties. Judge Berrien has also de.
dress the people in few days in favor oil
his election. From Tennessee, the news is
of the most cheering character, and the best
politicians Of that State say that the Wing
E ticket will be elected by FIVE thousand ma.

papers, and see with what enthusiasm the
good cause is sustained in that State"

since the date of the existence of the pres.
ent parties. Neither of these States except
Delaware, gave majority of less than three
thousand for Gen. Taylor, and there is MOI

Gen. Scott is stronger than Gen. Taylor
