To the People Of Indiana, and to the
Democracy of the Union Generally

To the People OF Indiana, ana TO the
Democracy of the Union Generally.
We, the undersigned, the Democratic
State Central Committee of Indiana, with
pleasure announce to you, In our official ca
pacity, the glorious and important results Of
the election in Indiana, held on the 14th
inst.
Enough Of returns have reached US from
sal parts of the State, to enable us to state
positively that Hon. AsHBEL P. WILLARD is
elected Governor, and Hon. A. a. HAMMOND
lieut. Governor, BY more than SIX THOUS-
AND Maj GRITTY that the whole State
Ticket jsyelected by a correspondingly large
msiority--and that already we have elected
SIX members of Congress, certain, and prob
ably eight members. The State Legislature
on Joint ballot, VIII be largely Democratic.
This result is highly important in every
respecs. 1t shows that the State is essentially
and positively Democratic, and can and will
cast her vote for BUCHANAN for President,
and that the Democratic nominations for
President and Vice President will undoubt-
eddy succeed in November. The result of
the State election in Pennsylvania is also
most satisfactory, and taken in connection
with Indians, effsctually concludes end pros
,rs.es the prospects of the Fremont or Abo-
lition party, throughout the Union. The
votes of Pennsylvania and of Indiana, added
to those Southern States, which are known
10 be safe for BUCHANAN, make the election
of BUCHANAN and BREcKINRIDaE fixed and
settled matter of fact.
To the invincible Democracy of Indiana,
the National Democracy is greatly indebted
for the noble efforts, the untiring zeal, and
the inhexible patriotism which has accom-
plished this great work; and to them are
they under deep obligations for virtually set
ling tb,, Presidential Election question, both
bv their liberal action in the Cincinnati Con-
v.nt,ou. and in deciding the very exciting
and warmly contested State election in Indi'
ana with such overwhelming and complete
success.

mains for you to perform. Look to the vote
Of November for President. Keep up you
active organizations. Hold meetings in you
counties and townships, and keep your PEG

TaE:s every voter to the polls, and give tn
