ELECT oral VOTES.
Total,

Ii would have been just as reasonable to
have extended the list to include Vermont
and Mississippi, and all the rest of the 33
States of the Confederacy.
A Democratic paper in Pennsylvania,
speaking for that State, says that the calcu-
lation mog be correct for the rest Of the
States, but that Douglas has not the reno
test chance Of carrying Pennsylvania; and
we venture TO say that such would be the
honest expression Of Democratic papers In
reference to four ffths Of the States in the
above list. But if Douglas cannot be elect
ed except on such an absurd calculation as
that which claims the electoral vote Of half
New England, New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, &C., hoe hope
less must be his chances even in tho estima-
ton Of bis own friends.

The leaders of the Bell party, North and
South, seem to have despaired of success for
their candidates, and are looking around for
some soft spot to fall on. The Indications
are multiplying that the prime movers and
active leaders OF the party desire to retire
from the contest, or rather to make combi-
nations with other parties which will hold
out better chances of success.
Washington Hunt and Brooks, of New
York, have recently manifested an anxious
solicitnde to preserve the Union in some
more effectual manner than by the support
of the ticket which they nominated at Balti-
more.s Va fact, it is understood that the
New York leaders of this faction are in the
market and cbsffsring for bids, AMI that they
are assured Of proper personal remuneration
therefor. The Louisville Journal confesses
that there is no hope of the election of Bell
and Everett; and the Savannah Georgia.
Republican, in it's despair of their success,
proposes that Bell and Breckenridge shall
both withdraw, and that united South be
secured on ticket with Hammond for Pres
ident and Bell for Vice President.
The result of THE lack OF hope and dispo-
eition to give il up on the part of the Union
lists, will be TO strengthen Breckenridge in the
South with large proportion of their num-
bers; while in the North the leaders will
make the best bargains they can for them
selves, and carry as many of the rank and
file with them as practicable. But We don't
think tho dissolution Of that party will tend
to effect the prospects Of either Douglas or
Lincoln very seriously in the North, for the
privates will divide and vote according to
their sentiments Oh the slavery question, and
the leaders have neither weight, influence or
reputation to effect much, either good or
evil.
