Not sound was heard the hall around,
As the Judge rehearsed his story;
Save the frequent signs of Woe profound.
For the party's vanished glory.
From the streets they heard the sound Of fun,
As our cannon pealed its warning;
But il seemed to them like the evening gun,
To the man 10 die in the morning.
They beheld the light, and heard the shout
OF the Wide-Awakes' demonstration;
Which said. as the Keystone goes, no doubt
Will go the great Yankee nation"
And the Judge confessed, the game was up,
And their last hope they might bury;
And they wept. as they drained his bitter cup
q. the scene was a sad one, very.
Nv friends said the Judge-as the bitter tear
All around were freely flowing
Not a word have l. TO aliay your fears
For the fate to which wer' going.
Since the sun Of yester morn arose,
All the Quakers on earth have voted;
And every despatch of lightning shows
That our hopes are all garroted.
And there's nothing now, except some act
OF Providence-scarce expected
Can alter the almost certain fact,
That Old Abe will be elected.
For as Jefferson long ago. has shown.
No; an attribute of Heaven
Can aid the oppressor, We must own.
Our chances are hardly even.
And the Union-Oh, how glad would we
| Still cherish its bonds so dearly;
And stand by the South as We and she,
Scatter eighty millions yearly!
If we can't do this, there'l be a smash,
And the South will stand from under;
For if ,re can't handle the peoples cash.
The machine may go to thunder
But it's all day now, since all our dough"
Couldn't save old Pennsylvania;
And all DER the land, where'er We go.
It's "a perfect Lincoln mania.
And a wall % sorrow moved the crowd,
From the stout hearts nearly broken,
Till they thought again, when they curs'd hir
loud.
| For the truths so plainly spoken.
And they told the Judge his speech would cos
| The slavery party in lngham,
Full a hundred votes. that would be lost
By the light his words would bring 'em.
And they turned away, as they looked aheat
But week beyond October,
| To see the slave party - dead. dead, dead
And for once, they went home sober.

second Tuesday of October, in old Pennsylva-
mia, in Ohio and Indiana, good tdings, which
were only foreshadowed in our last issue, late
that night eliminated in the certainty that
Curtin had carried the Old Keystone by 3d..
900 majority. that BrinkerhoOf's majority in
Ohio was some 10000, and that noble Indiana
had rolled up $4,000 for Lane. Joy, unmin-
gled, and unalloyed, seized upon the Republi-
cans Of Lansing, for throughout Wednesday,
although We have no railroad. and no telegraph,
good news flies fast, and long before night
through one source and another, full certainty
had fallen upon the minds Of all, that the bat
tie was over, and that the day is our own. All
over, at the street corners, and in all public
places, knots Of Republicans might be seen,
comparing returns. exchanging congratulations,
and expressing irrepressible exultation, and as
soon as night came, bonfres blazed, the houses
Of citizens, (including the large double broad
side Of the Lansing House, were Illuminated,
cannon spoke out, as guns never spoke before
in these diggings, band-music mingled with the
exultant shouts of hundreds of freemen, the
torches Of the Lansing wide-Awakes cleaned
through the darkness, like so many stars of
nope and triumph, and the whole city, from
North to South, through the three Wards. was
one scene Of rejoicing.
Well might freemen rejoice. 1t was the glo-
rious reward, of the labor and anxiety of a
long campaign. Like the drums and trumpets
Of Blueher's reinforcement at Waterloo, it came
when the fates of the day were at their crisis
when the hearts of the combatants upon our
side, were ready to rise to prompt action, or to
sink to dependency. as the tide of battle
might turn.
The struggle is over, and the day is our
own One grand charge along the whole line
remains for the sixth Of November, and pro-
slavery Locofocoism' will be routed. horse,

1t is needless to warn Republicans not to al
low the fixed certainty which stands before us.
to delude them into inaction. Safety is an ele-
ment Of success. 1t inspires and energies
while slothful, easy security, is but the pre-
cursor Of disaster. Republicans should take
pride in emulating their brethren Of Pennsyl-
vania and Indiana-not being content with q
mere victory, but aiming to make that victory
overwhelming.
Now is the time, Republicans, to show our
enemies that if they ever hope to regain the
confidence Of voters-if they look, sooner or
later, for return Of the palmy days Of the old
democracy, they must be men, and not tools
they must standoy their just convictions, and
discard and despise the threats of tyrants, the
counsels Of demagoguss, and fears of cow

AS an answer to this, however, we were called

Convention in that State, two of Douglas support
ers called upon him at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in
this city, and informed him of the terms of union
