The Albany Atlas and Argus in article on the pros

era States in which the struggle greatest which we
commend to the attention ofour readers;
"In Pennsylvania there undeniaby great struggle The
that State by Fremont the election next week. would
end the campaign far he is concerned and hence the
desperate effort Of his friends to carry it. The loss OF the
State by Buchanan would not affect him dsastrously
it is well that he win be much stronger at the
November election than the democratic State ticket at the
election week. Independently of Mr. Buchanan's per-
sona popularity in his own State this sufficiently clear for
the reason the Fillmore and Fremont combine
the State ticket but will not the presidential ticket
Moreover Mr. Buchanan lose and still have
better chance than Fremont OF election while the loss OF
the State by the latter would end him. democratic r
umph in Pennsy ania next week would terminate the
pagn favor of Buchanan while democratic defeat would

Both sides claim the October election in State with
great confidence and is perhaps impossible for
to prognosticate the result with much certainty But
have information within the last thr days from those
who have all the knowledge 1t possible for any pos
concerning the prospects in that State which gives
every positive Of democratic triumph, and
that political friends after having fully canvassed the
State, now feel entire confidence in such a result.

reliable quarters No State in the Union has perhaps been

THE FIRST GUN FROM MICHIGAN.

While rejoicing the brilliant democratic ri-
umphs in Connecticut Delaware and Florida must
forget that the democracy Of Michigan have opened their
fire upon the enemies Of the republic with COM
pete success Under special law, the elections in the
upper peninsula OF Michigan for senators and
atves are held on the last Tuesday Of September The
returns which have been received exhibit glorious
democratic victory. The democratic majority on senator
is OH'dndi Robert Graveraetis the Democratic and
successful candidate. Abner Sherman and Peter White

This result has chesred the hearts Of the Michigan

They were in sleigh, drawn by a single horse,
and had nearly reached the Canadian shore.
when the horse broke through the ice, or as
is supposed by some, fell through an air-hole,
drawing the sleigh and its unfortunate oecu-

Another Fight In Kansas

Our telegraph dispatches give the news OF
another fight between the "Abolitionists" and
Pro- Slavery men. It will be recollected that
our Kansas correspondents in one of his last
letters, stated that it was utterly impossible
for any Free State man to send a dispatch over
the wires in any manner speaking disrespect-
fully fthe Missourians, and this remark has
been abundantly proved by the fact, that all
the dispatches received relative to tie late diff
culties, were from the Missouriahs, and were
afterwards proven medley of shameless lies
from the beginning to the end. SO we regard
this dispatch The very wording oft, calling
the Free State men Abolitionists, proves it halls
from the "Border Ruffians." The Free State
men may have been to blame in this last diff
Guilty, but this dispatch affords not the slightest
evidence they were so. Our correspondent
will promptly give the readers of the Journal
a correct statement of the whole affair, that we
are assured, just so soon as a letter from him
can reach us. We received private letter
from him yesterday, stating he was then on g
visit to relatives in Missouri. He said, writ
ing under date of the 9th, he would at once

To Temperance Men.

We ask the attention of Temperance friends
to the appeal in to-day's paper, from the Cen
trail Committee at Indianapolis: 1t is a strong
appeal and it should have hearty response.
The friends of Temperance have ample cause
for Encouragement, but it will not do to sac
riice their cause now by supineness. Let the
voice of the people be heard this coming
summer, on the subject of Temperance in In
diana. Let old organizations be continued,
and their influences even increased beyond
all precedent. Let the Temperance men rally,
pursue strong Jealous, united course, but
free from one thing they which has always been
a curse upon their characterization orex-
IRENE ultraism. Let them set their faces
against all men or all candidates who have
marked their opposition to Temperance by
fighting in the anti Temperance ranks. Their
voice can yet be heard, and their influence

GaneraI Lana.

What has become of Joe Lane? What are
the Indiana Democracy about, that they re-
commend Senator Bright for the Presidency,
and have not word to say about Joe Lane?
Do they recoleet their cid recommendations
of him for this high office, so admirably adapt
ed to his natural and acquired qualifications?
We have not even heard his name mentioned
for months. Not county meeting has done
him the honor of special notice. Even the
Democratic sovereigns of our county and of his
old county have annulled his very existence.
Has the old gentleman sunk into entire oblivion?
This won't do. We have no idea Of permitting
the General to retire into private life, even il
his friends are willing Why, while they are
eomphmenting Senator Bright, they should
recollect the honorable Senator owes the very
Office he holds to Gen. Lane. Lane could have
got the Office without trouble but he was put
off with a complimentary resolution recon-
mending him for the Presidency. He grasped
at the shadow, and lost the substance He
pursued brilliantly tinted soap bubble and lost
the Senatorship. Now, he has not even the
bubble before him. His friends have stopped
blowing these pretty bubbles for their own
amusement and his qualification.
