Senator Chandler, Of Michigan, addressed
about 1000 Republicans Of Manchester, N. H.,
last Saturday evening, in a very able and accep.
table manner. In the course Of his speech he
said Ilinois would 60 for Lincoln by twenty thou
sand; Michigan by equally ~ large number;
Indiana was sure for him; and in the fullest con.
fidence he predicted his election. He said Doug
las stood no chance to receive an electoral vote.
The Troy Times ayers that during Mr.. Doug
las sojourn in that city, "a consultation was held
determined that the best way to help him was to
organize Bell Everett clubs.'

THE DlsuNIoS TwADDLE.--The prospect is,
that the South will submit to Mr.. Lincoln's elec-
tion, if not gracefully, at worst sulenly, and
without offering any active resistance to his in
auguration, or TO the acts Of his administration,
if they do not prove aggressive. So tame . con
test is not calculated to stir up hot blood. The
final impression which the canvass will leave on
the Southern mind, will not be the settled hatred
sometimes cngendercd by violent and exaspera-
ting party warfare, but acquiescence in result
which will have been lorg foresecn and calmly
awaited. Whether Mr.. Lineoln's election will
be good thing for the country, Ia a question on
which we express no opinion. Time win solve
that problem. But if his election be an event
which those who most deprecate are powerless to
prevent, the earlier that conclusion il reached
the better for the tranquility of the country
Before the 4th of March the Southern mind will
have become so accustomed to its contemplation,
that the mere accession Of a Republican to power
will have lost its terror, and Mr.. Lincoln's adj
ministration, like any other, viii be- allowed to
stand on its merits, and will be judged ay the
wisdom or unwisdom Of lis measures and policy.
