Ert.ee; from a pirate letter reccirc1 at TIC
Enquirer Office from Tiaeeaacs, lad.
The Republicans in this (southcrn) portion
Of the State arc thoroughly organized, while
the Democrats are awaiting the result Of the
Baltimore Convention. The preference Of a
largo majority Of the Democrats is Douglas,
bur, BY way Of a compromise, Ercckinridsc or
Guthrie would get the full party vote Of the
Northwest. In this State the old line Whi.s
will vote for Lincoln almost to 4 man. AM il
will require good engineering, on the par, c:
the Democrats, to carry the State next fail.
Trusting for the success of tho Democratic
ticket, am
