BATTLE GRoUNp ,MEErING.-We learn
from gentlemen who attended TIE meet

70. 900 and 100000 There were, it is
said, about twice the number present
that was at the Democratic meeting
at the same place month previous,
Notwithstanding the unfavora bleness OF
the weather. The editor Of the Lapor.e
Union, who appears TO have been present,
thus speaks Of it:
This grand and glorious meeting of the
Freemen of Indiana has taken place;
and grand meeting il was-b both in
point OF numbers aud design. When we
consider the lateness of the season, and
the frosts and SHOWS that whitened the
earth and bitten the foliage upon the trees,
and the numerous meetings OF the kind
already held in diffent parts of the State;
we say, when we consider all this, we
can hold up our hands and exclaim "well
DONE" We think taking oil things
/ into consideration that the meeting at
Tippecanoe. is a shadow of the coming
even,--wh ich is. Indiana will answer to
/ the shrieks for redress from Iowa, Yer
mont and Maine, in ten fold louder tones.

the number present. and they vary. some

as high as lO0,0 900. Now fifty thousand

The official vote may slightly change
these figures.
From st. Joseph county, we hear re
port of 800 Republican majority-a loss
for US, on the vote Of 1854, Of BOO
Laporte gives 1OO--a loss of over 200
In both OF these counties the Irish vote
was large. In st. Joseph. Marshall and
Laporte, we lose 700 votes, leaving Col,
fax still abou, 500 ahead in The District.
We have nothing from either Ohio OF
Pennsylvania.
Our defeat here and in the eghboring
counties is attributable to but one cause
tho Irish vote. The people are with
us as the result in precincts where no
foreign vote was polled distinctly show.
We gain in Polk. Union. West, North
and Tippecanoe. hold our own in Ger
man and Bourbon, and lose only in Gen.
tire and Green.
As to the result in the State, we enter.
tain strong hopes Of Judge Morton's sue
cess. although his defeat may be COM
passed by thorough pipe-laying Of the
State, as has been done in this Congress
ional District. We know the masses of
the people are on our side; and if they
were left 10 decide the issue, our triumph
would be complete everywhere.
One thing we are sure of-,he Democ-
racy have done their worst here in Mar
shall. They have polled $50 Irish non
resident votes, and what is the result?
A majority of about 100. sho wing con-
clusively that majority Of $50 of the
