ITEMS from the Washington cOrFespon-
dence of the Cincinnati Gazette:
W have cheering accounts, from every
quarter of the Republican prospects. Sem
ator Hamlin, Mr.. Lincoln's associate on the
ticket. writes that the Republican majority
in Maine will not be less than 10000. In
Maryland large Republican vote will be
cast--so large as to materially interfere with
the Bell and Everett calculations.
A Republican paper has Just been started
in Baltimore, called the Border State, which
is conducted with energy and spirit. Some
years ago such paper could not have been
published there
The Administration Party have advices
from indiana that Lane will carry the State
in October by 5000 majority, which will
give Lincoln the Electoral vote in Novem-
Der almost without a struggle
In view of the almost certainty of Lin
coins election, the Southern ire-eating
press arc beginning to assume more mod
crate tone. Even the Charleston Mercury
talks mildly, and expresses the opinion that
the mere election of Lincoln should not be
regarded rs a sufficient cause for dissolution.
1t is disposed to wait for some overt act.
This is an extensive backing down, and
shows how foolish has been all the talk OF
the New Y ork Herald in predicting a reyo-
luton in case OF Lincoln success.
1t is rumored in political circles that the
Hon. VIM. l.. Yancey, the leader of the Sc
cesslonists, is about coming North to defend
himself against the charge OF Disunionism.
The fact that he deems such a course nec-
essary, is evidence of the unpopularty oil
the views generally imputed to him.
Some of the papers are amusing them
selves with a recapitulation of the number
of stump speeches Judge Douglas has made
on his pilgrimage to the home of his pa
rents. The number is stated at twenty,
with several more in prospect.
This thing of Presidential candidate
stumping the country in his own behalf, has
excited the disgust of the people of the
North, and Mr.. Douglas efforts have largely
contributed to give votes to his competitor
His speech at the great Rhode Island Clam
Bake betrayed the innate vulgarity of the
man.
Exaggerated reports are again being cir
culated about an insurrection IN Texas, in
which large numbers of Abolitionists are
said to be engaged. These canards have nc
foundation in fact, and are gotten up for
political effect, TO damage the Republican
cause with the conservative masses.

POPULATION or New HAMpsuIRE.-Th
population of New Hampshire, in 1850, was
$3.50 II WAS thought by many that the
census OF 1860 would show an increase of
$4,000; but a late estimate sets it at $780,
900. II this last estimate be correct, she
will barely retain her three Conqressmen.

FIRE IN PRINcEToN.-At 4 o'clock Tues
day morning we were awakened by the cry
of fire. Looking from our window, we saw
near the Northwest corner of the Public
Square the flames arising from a wooden
building-soon it and adjoining buildings
were wrapped in flames The fire continued
to resist every effort to stop it for at least
forty minutes, then we could gradually see
it yield 10 the almost super-human efforts of
our people, and in forty minutes it was rem
dered harmless. The goods and household
effects of the families were generally re-
moved so the chief loss will be on buildings.
The losers are as follows: McWulen u
Green, Merchants, building and portion of
goods, 81, O0n T. & J. I. Ewing, Plow and
Wagon Manufacturers, building and portion
of stock, 81, 500; ThOs. Cole, Store building,
$500; James Thomas, Gunsmith, building
and Stock, $500; Newton Milburn, Grocer,
portion of Goods 5000 There are few
other small losses.
1t is supposed that the fire caught from
some ashes being left in one of the buildings.
