Indiana Politics.

Our advices from Indana--and they are from
the best sources--arc of the most cheering
kind. The Democratic State ticket will be
elected by at least ten thousand majority. The
Legislature will be largely Democratic and sew
en- out Of the eleven congressman will be Dem
ocrats, with fair chance ofoao more being add
cd to the number. Hughes will certainly be
elected. Every Indication is favorable to that
result. Carr cannot carry with him more than
three hundred. Niblack VII have thousands
for his majority, so will English, aud Holman
will carry his districtby from eight hundred TO
a thousand. Ray will beat Porter badly. The
o:her districts will be closely contested; one Of
them our Democratic friends are as sure Of car
rying as the sun rises, and another they have
great hopes Of We are assured that Indiana
never looked better for the Democracy than it
looks this iall.-E9qmrer.
The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1858-10-06

We have no hesitation in saying that the eIe-
ments to efeat MIR. Bingham exist, and that
they can be combined against him without
great difficulty. The majority in the 2lat Con-
greSSi7nal District year ago was less than
l4O0O; we can readily sec how that majority
can he overcome.
First the de eat OF Gen Ecklcy and conse-
quent disadtcton in Carroll County will make
difference against tho Republicans of 500
votes.
Second, Ju1ge Means popularity in Jefer-
son county will make difference in favor ofDem-
ocracy Of 400.
Thru, Bingham's nomination for third term,
and his refusal to say that he will not ask a
fourth will make difference aglinst him in the
whole District OF 500 votes.
EPourth, Binghams overweenng vanity on his
position, and his recent exhibition OF power,
breaking the settled rules of the district,
will turn POO Republicans on Means.
Fifth, the fact that his defeat is the on =
1y way to get rid of him will take off 200
yot& -. ..s.
Sixth, The possibility and the strong proba-
bify OF eCoatng him will bring out 400 Dem
ocrats, who would otherwise remain at home.
ScveRth he is good for nothing in Congress;
look at his acts. We thts figure up a change
in the District Of over 2200, and we think We do
not over estimate the effects and power Of any
single inAAnce OF which we have spoken.
l40N A large change to be effected in four
counties n single year: but it is not so large as
the 5000 against us the first year Of Republican
ascendency, and the waves Of popular favor are
bearing us safely and speedily onward as they
were the Republicans then. IutH.@
We can spare 800 out of the calculation and
still elect Judge Means. ..,...... ,7..
But leaving out the causes, Of loss arising IN
Mr.. Binghams case tn IS fall, we can beat him
on the fatality Of reduction attending Republi-
can majorties' in the District. -Four years age
he had 5000-two years time brought majority
down 10 2500--in three years to 400, and in
the same ratio it would this fall, sink like "the
baseless fabric ora fision" and not leaye him bid = ;
Remember then bingham will be defeated;
Carroll county will beat h,m; Jefferson county
will heat him; his own seli>hnces will beal
him; his vanity will beat him; his aft ctatior
will beat him; his incfliciency in Congress fol
any good to the district win beat him. Bla
zing prospects light our way to triumph, and
cheering hopes stimulate to vigorous action

Judge Means--Mr. Bingham--The
Kansas I'm mbrOgIiO. rs......

Having but Weekly paper, we endeavor
to reply to such of the articles as appear in the
Daily Herald on our regular publication day.
Several articles have appeared in the Herald as
editorials and from correspondents, on the Kan
sns question. SuppOsing that every man OF
sense was satisfied that so far as Congressional
action was concerned, this question was forever
set at rest, we have paid no attention to any ar
tice on this subject The Herald says that our
candidate would vote Tor the admission Of Kan as
as a slave State with population of40,000,
but only as Free State with 930OO. This is
too absurd for contradiction. He should know
that our candidate would vote for the admission
of Kansas with Constitution legally adopted
and in accordance with the Constitution Of the
United States, and yet with all this stuff, we
have the record evidence that Mr.. Bingham
What the people of this District now want We
propose to furnish by electing Judge Means.
They do not want sectional man in Congress,
whatever their personal and individual views
nly De-no eXlreIilSG Will suit lneln
but sound, National and conservative man
such we must have, or our District will remain
rs It has for three years, blank in local advan-
t4ges. AT this time National Foundry is to
be erected somewhere in the valley of the Ohio
Where, fellow citizens, better than in this re-
gion. The proper place in the District would
readily suggest itself With this favor from the
Federal Government the whole farming and
mechanical interests would be benefited. The
advantages of this section OF Ohio are equal to,
if not superior to any. The great mineral
wealth, climlte ami health Of this region gives
Us strong claims. 1t is not then our interest
to vote for that man VINO can most likely secure
that object? We appeal to that class of men
who have not lost their Nationality and the
public veal in the dogma of simple anti-sla-
very, an issue that no good can result from
with long and ugly controversy upon mooted
points that can only divide the Union. When
such men as Giidings are sustaining Mr. Bing-
ham, we think the old line Wings can't help
but give him a. fire in the rear" which will send
him where he properly belongs, with Garrison,

The comet which is now visible in the nortl :
west quarter OF the heavens is becoming bright
er nightly. In consequence OF its slowncsS OF
motion, period Of visibility will be very great
1t has already been visible through telescope
nearly two months and half; and it will prob
ably remlin in sight for considerable length
ef time yet The head, or star of the comet,
appears about equal to a star of the second
magnitude, and as it has not yet reached the per-
ihelion Chat point the nearest to the SUM oil its
orbit it will yet be considerably brighter, and
present splendid appearance. ..
The lonsltule of the parihalion Of this comet
is about 80 degrees, and Of the ascending node
about I6G degrees. The inclination is about
G3 degrees, Tho porih9lion distance is about
100000 miles, or a little greater than the
mean distance Of Mercury from the San. Its

The velocity of the comet, when at its perihe-

distance from the Earth at this time, roughly
estimated, is about 81 900 miles. It's tail

The pixies Peak Gold Discoveries.

IYTEREsTIxG LETTAH FRoN Gov. DBNvER
WAsmNAToN, Sept. 27.--Governor Denver
writing to the Secretary Of the Interior, Sept
18th, says: The late news from Pixies Peak
leaves no room to doubt the correctness of the
reported discoveries o. gold in that vicinity
The explorers in that vicinity have found gold
on the Arkansas, on the heads of the Kansas,
and on the South Fork Of tho Patt river, EN-.
bracing an extent Of country more than three
hundred miles The richest mines yet found
are on Cherry Creek, a tributary OF the South
Platte, directly North ofPikes Peak.
Gov. Denver had not yet heard of quartz
veins, but the best information would seem to
indicate great similarity between these mines
and the first discoveries in California. In view
Of the present condition ofaffairs in that region,
and to prevent future difficulty, Gov. Denver
advises the lands there 70 be withdrawn from
pre-emption, if they are open to settlement
leaving them as in the mining districts IN Cali
6rnia free for all who may See fit to engage in
working the mines.
The country he believed is or has been claim
ed by the Utahs, the Jheyennes, the kiowas,
the Arrapahoes, and he does not know tha
their title to it has ever been extinguirhed. |
it has not there will be no trouble in withdraw
ing the lands from the operation o the pre- emp
ton laws, but il it has then they ought to be
Withdrawn any how, and the facts and reasons
reported to Congress next winter 1t would
he adds, also be advisable to send out some com
petent person to examine the mines and report
the facts in connection with them.

able to fix Mr.. Bingham on Dunu's Bill We
clip the following fom the Carroll Democrat:
We have not the GtJe of 1855 be fore us,
and cannot give the vote Of the House Of Rep,
on the Dunn Bill; but our recol-
lection Of the matter is, that Mr.. Bingham
dodged the question: and did not vote at all In
1856, when Mr.. B. was canvassing the district
for denomination to Congress, he made speech
at Mechanicstown, in this county, and there
frankly admitted, in answer to an interrogato-
ry propounded to him by Hon. r. j. Atkinson
then of Carrolton, that htd he bingham been
present when the vote was taken in the House,
