From the Boston Post
All Hail indiana! All Hail the Hereafter Vic


tory
The glorious news from the Keystons State
is accompanied with news Of equal signi6-
canoe from the Vest; and the same devotion
to the Union and the constitution that has
been manifested in Pennsylvania has been
exhibited in Indiana.
Indiana is one of the States which the
Fremonters confidently relied on. Indeed,
they were not even willing that the Democ-
racy of that State should have anything
should still live. On the day before the
election the New York Courier and Enquirer
said:
"0ur friends are confident Of the success of
their candidate (for Govemor) by from nine
to twelve thousand majority"
Accounts from Indiana represent that our
chances are good in all the seven districts
which we how hold, and that we may posi-
bly, carry all of the remaining four but one."
There has been no end to the Dragging ac-
counts of monster meetings in favor of Ere
mont and no stone has been left unturned
to secure the success of that party.
But Indiana contains as noble list OF
Democratic champions as any other State in
the Union. Gov. Willard and Senator Bright
in themselves are hosts, and they have with
them a fine array of talent and patriotism.
The Fremont orators have been met a. every
turn, and their base calumnies have been re-
futed. There has been there glorious fight.
The result is rs splendid as it is significant.
Indiana has routed the sectional party horse
and foot Willard, the Democratic candidate,
is Governor by over SIX THOUSAND ma
jority; the Democrats have six out of eleven
members OF Congress, and majority of the
Legislature, which secures two Democratic
Senators to be elected by this Legislature
All honor to the gallant Democracy of In
diana They have nobly discharged their
duty, and told the country that Indiana will
give her vote for James Buchanan. 1t must
be remembered that this is a victory which
the Indiana Democrats have achieved with
only the patriotic assistance of the Old Line
Wings who go for Buchanan. The Fremont
ers and Know Nothings were arrayed against
them. At the next election tho Fillmore
ticket will be in the field, which will in
crease the majority for Buchanan.
IIurrah for the glorious State of Indiana |!
And as goes Indiana so goes Illinois Keep
the ball rolling 1t Is not enough to barely
elect Buchanan and Breckenridge. The
North, misrepresented and illuminated by
its Fremont sectional orators, owes IL TO itself
TO give them a most signal rebuke. Let the
national candidates have vote here that
shall silence forever the claims Of these ora
tors TO represent the North.
Democrats, maintain your discipline -
Close up your ranks Pour in grapel For
ward upon the sectional squadrons Give
them next time what Jackson gave the Bri-
tish at New Orleans

These two States have acted together with
a happy cordiality in this great campagD.-
The Democratic Delegates Of both States
met in Cincinnati, and conferred together
They both agreed TO cast their united and

two States had so agreed was common re-

Oh! Ho!


Within the last few weeks we have been
treated with variety of argument from the
other side OF the house, that ia really refresh
ing. Before the election, the united senti-
ment OF The opposition was, that il the Dem
ocrats could be effectually "wiped out'' in
this State. IN the contest of the 14th, there
would be a general rally on Fillmore in the
South, aud Bucbanan's chances would be ''no-
toieye." This argument was used in this State
by both the Fillmore and the Fremont men,
as a reason why it would be policy for the
former to unite beArtily with the latter in
support Of the horton Sslte ticket. The
Louisville Journal came to the aid of the al
lies, and warmly esEoasea the cause of Nor
ten for t1Ns..i4e Ieas0n.
Now the Joug1,at.is on the other tack-hav-
ing performed. a perfect sumrnerset. It is
amazed" to hear that few "old Line
Whigs' in Kentucky yet vascillate between
Fillmore and Buchanan, because they fear the
election Of Ay. Fremont.
not be afraid to come up boldly for Fillmore,
inasmuch as there is not the least possible
chance for Fremonts election Pennsylvania
aud Indiana has "fxed" that matter beyond
all peradventure. The Journal says that
"neither Of those States can by any possible
combination of circumstances, be carried for
Fremont" and the contest being entirely be
tween Mr.. Fillmore and Mr., Buchanan no
old line Whigp who prefers Mr.. Fillmore,
ought to hesitate for moment how to act.
The philosophy Of the Journal appears to be
of that convenient sort which determines one
to look upon every event as the best that
could have happened.
-Four weeks ago, the defeat of the Democ-
racy in Indiana and Pennsylvania, would be
a master stroke Of policy on the part Of the
Fillmore men Of those States, inasmuch as it
would not only insure him the vote of every
man in the South who preferred him to any
other candidate, but would also drive into
his support many whose first choice was Mr..
Buchanan. Now, the defeat Of the opposi
ton in these two States, is perfect god
send to the Journal because it relieves its
friends of all fears Of the election of Fremont
and thus deprives them Of all excuse for sup
porting Mr.. Buchanan
If this is not reversing the order of debate,
what in the name Of reason end common
sense is it? 1t looks very much. to us, like
turning ones own guns against ones self. II
the position which the Journal now takes is
the correct one, it made most egregious mis-
take when il entered the lists for Morton
against Willard.
