The population OF Michigan is $50 900

How II Works.

A New-York merchant informs us that
be met on Friday and Saturday three solid
business msn of our city no had just
made up their minds to vote for Lincoln.
One of them said:
al have always been Democrat. but |
am before all things Union man. and L
cannot countenapce any party that seeks
to win an election by threatening Dis
union" Another said: at is clear that
Lincoln is To be elected, and the only ques-
rion to be settled is, Shall his election be
respected and obeyed. as elections have
hitherto been or shall there be serious
attempt 10 break up the Union 2 1 shall
vote for Lincoln merely to emphasize the
determination of the American People TO
maintain the Union at all hazards. 1
shall vote for him TO give due notice that
all schemes of Disunion must fail The
third said: "We cannot stand three
months more of political Psnic-making in
order to affect the Presidential Election -
We must settle the question now, or busi-
ness will be wholly arrested. To throw
the election into the House, where no one
has a majority, may not break up the Gov
eminent but 1t will certainly protracI the
present anarchy and uncertainty until
March next. | cannot stand this; and /
shall vote to close siie contest at once
These three instances occurred within tue
limited observation of single merchant;
there are doubtless hundreds like them,
and probably thousands. Unless we are
grossly deceived, the late political panic.
so wantonly produced for partisan and
stockjobbing purposes, has added largely
to Lincoln's vote. Judicious friends now
say that Lincoln will have nearly or quite
40 900 in our city.
We trust the engineers will not be dis
couraged, but go ahead. If they have
done their worst with the Stock Market
| let them follow the lead of their Herald
and get up run on the Banks That wil
bring nearly every one who has ahythins
to lose TO the conclusion that, though th'
Union can stand three months more OF po
Iitical panic making, business cannot; ant
that every interest demands the electioI
of Lincoln by decisive majority.

PUERILE APPREHENSION New
Orleans Bee (Bell-Everett) candidly
admits-whst we doubt not is seen by
sensible men everywhere at the South
the sheer folly of the pretended
fears Of the agitators of that section, in
view OF the election of Abraham Lin
coin. The Bee says:
Since probability at least exist Of
the election of Abraham Lincoln to
the Presidency. speculation loves to
indulge in conjeclures respecting the
character Of his Administration Many
thoughtless persons seem to imagine
that il Lincoln should be successful,
all sorts of dire calamities will forth
with befall the South; and that we
might as well make up our mind at
once TO be ruined and undon. We
need scarcely remind rejecting men
that all this is mere puerile apprehen-
sion; aud that Abe Lincoln were a
perfect political ogre, that very incar.
nate fiend Auti-Slavery, he would be
! unable 10 injure the South without
the consent and concurrence of the
National Legislature.

IL Maj. Hancock of New Albany, do
livered one of the very best speeches, at
the Court House, in this city last evening,
that it has been our pleasure of hearing
during this campaign. The evening being
very inclemeut the audience was not as
large as it otherwise would have been, but
the eloquent speaker spoke with telling eft.
feet TO those who were so fortunate as TO
be present. He was logical, historical aud
profoundly versed in the political issues of
the day, and enchained his audience in a
most mastery manner.
We only regret that Mr. II has not found
leisure TO enter the canvass at an earlier
day. for certainly but few more able and
convincing speakers can be found in the
State.
He speaks to day at Sullivan and To our
| friends there, we ask for him a rousing au-
dience. He is Kentuckisn by birth, an
Indiapaian by adoption and Republican
because his intelligence and the right
make him so.
