Never has such sweeping and decisive result crown
ed the efforts Of the Democracy Of Indiana any pre-
vious election. Never has the banner oil Democracy
been borne gallanty in the contest. The
whole State has risen in her might, and with mos
unanimous decision declared that she will permit
the Wing party rule govern her in the grea
Legislative, Judicial OF Executive departments You
have also emphatically decided IN Of the clever
Congressional Districts, that in the councils of the
ton, Indiana must be represented by good and true
Democrats 10 these selections you have chosen mer
Of sterling integrity, of talents, and Of reliable Demo
cratic princples-men who true TO the State, TO
the people, and 10 the Union who will nobly and hon
estly sustain Democratic Administration of the ma
tional government aud zeaously labor for the glory
and welfare of the whole people, and Of our common
country. The political character Of our General As
semby is such TO give full that deserving
Democrat will be returned as Senator Of the United
States, in place Of the amented Whitcomb.
Tins result IS not only gratifying to u.s. and TO your
selves, but is hailed with JOY and exu'tation through
out the States Of this great eonederacy prestige oil
complete victory in the approaching Presidential cleo
ton.
Indiana has fulfilled the expectations of her Demo
cratic friends in the other Of this mighty Repub
lie. Her Delegates to the Baltimore Convention had
pledged her a true and reliable Democratic State
Her orators her statesmen aud her citizens, had given
pledges OF her feay to principle OF her adherence &c
her faith and oil the readiness and ability oil the peo
pie 10 carry the State for Pierce and King
Whiggery lies PROSTATE and defeated in Indiana
Her vain bOastings have douby overwhelmed her. Her
prophets and her wse.men astounded and have nc
valid excuse TO oer The people have spoken, and the
truth has flashed upon the astonshed and infatuated
men who claimed this Wing State.
Every artifce, every design, and every straiagem
has been used and attempted BY our adversaries &c
entrap and mislead our Democratic friends; but al
their attempts have proved aborve and have reacted
upon the authors. We acknowledge many obliga
tons 10 naturazed and adopted citizens and are
proud that their good and unfiinching integrity
has enabled them 10 vndicate themselves and the De
mocra nc party OF the State from the malgn aspersion
and influences Of the Wing leaders and orators wht
have endeavored dissuade them from acting with
The past Is full OF gory-is cheering and pleasing t.
contemplate. The future promises double repast o.
pleasure and of triumph To realize well ground
ed hopes and 10 secure permanently all that we car
nationally desire in political point Of view, we mus
make one great effort-one more grand display
OF our power and our numbers.
On Tuesday, the ID day of November next the Presl
Dental election will be held IL every State in this Con
federacy Every patriot will give that day to his coun
try Every true Democrat will go to the polls and vote
for the sake Of his principles. He has every uducement
every encouragement to do his duty
Although have signally defeated our opponents
they still cherish their hostility to and to ou
principles. They will adhere 10 their secret organza
tonsj they will hope TO find lethargc and neglecttu
and that by industry and management their part the
will despoil of our strength while are asleep
Already have of their leaders asserted that W,
cannot maintain strength. Already have they hurl
ed defiance in teeth, and said they will overwhen
US in November with shame and defeat Shall this bt
true, or shall again and forever crush their now
broken ranks and routed forces7 Let every man con
slider himself committee of vigilance and see that nc
raud deception be praoced upon himself upon h
neghbor Let every voter be brought to the polls and
let vigilance and be the watch-words. Our proud
old Democratic standard has been borne aloit tri
phantly through the State contest, and waive:
over gloriously. Who will be base and recrean
TO permit that standard to be wrested from and
trail in the dust beneath the tread Of Whiggery7
Our sister States gladdened by our noble deeds
Indiana takes the lead. She is the vanguard of De-
mocracy in the Union Her sister, Ohio, has done
noby, and will try TO swell her numbers equal our
majority Whilst we will roll up our 20 900 or 25 900
majority Ohio sends forth from 1900 to 20 600; and
that noble old Keystone State, Pennsylvania has gal
antly spread her roll with about equal majority
with Ohio Maryland, ever glorious Maryland, gives
token Of her Democratic strength and spirit Connec-
cut, by her late elections, promises full Democratic
victory and every sign from almost every State pro-
claims the almost total humiliation of the Wing party.
Indiana bids fair to be the banner State All that is
wanting is, that no Democrat shall be found asleep
his post Only few days and the tale will be told and
that tale will be the death-knel of Whiggery Where
is the man who will stay at home when much is at
stakel
Brethren, Indiana has covered herself with a mantle
Of richest glory, and her proud of her
Her standard bearers have nobly led her The GEN.
ter Of the enemy has been broken and his hlanks
turned his forces scattered and BEATEN bat
press on to complete the victory.
The price Of liberty is eternal vigilance. He is not
a good citizen who refuses vote his principles
We hope, in conclusion, in few days, be able 20
announce to you that the majority for Pierce and King
in Indiana is greater than that given TO highly
teemej Governor and the State ticket. Will you all
