Edward M'Pherson, Esq, the Peoples can
didate for Congress in the Adams sud Frank
lin district, arrived in town this morning on his
return from Juniata county. lie is enjoying
excellent health, and from what we can learn
from persons acquainted in the district, We are
led 10 believe that he will be triumphautly
elected over his opponent, Wilson Reilly, the
Lecom2ton candidate, who betrayed the wishes
Of his constituents ly voting for that swim
r Messfs. Mcpherson aud Reilly addressed
different meetings AT Miffin during the past
week, aud disiutere=ted eyewitness informs
US that Mr.. Reilly was completely foored in the
contest, aud that Mr. Mcpherson is by far the
best speaker. Mr.. Reilly is now attempting
to make the people of his district believe that
he will vote for the admission of Kansas, IF
shc should present herself at the next Con-
gress for admission with new Constitution
We hope the people Of his district I'll pause
and consider his promises heretofore made TO
them that he would vote against Lecompton
