our gallant standard-bearer speaks In the
most encouraging aud fattering terms OF
the prospect. Like ourselves he has no
doubt Of success, if his friends in all por-
tons of the State will continue from now

and energy. lie has made thus far a glor-
GUS canvass, fighting the battle of his party
with an intrepidity, and energy. and an en-
