The New York Herald has reputation for
sagacity, al least among the Democracy, whose
cause it advocates, and We recommend it to the
attention of the Journal, which seems halt in
clined To come the same game it did four years
ago, and induce its friends to risk and lose
their money in betting. That game sue
cecded SO admirably, in 1856 and the lesson
which it taught was so improved, that there is
little ground to apprehend the same results
now, even should the advice be repeated. The
Journal, predcating its opinion upon a noisy,
clap-trap, attempt to rally the fag-ends of the
broken-down Democracy of New York. in the
Albany Argus. tries to make itself believe that
there is hope OF the Douglas cause, or the
Breckinridge cause. or the Bell-Everett cause.
in New York: now let Us hear what the old
Herald says which is sagacous and long head
ed and which smells defeat with a most inner
ring instinct:
The overwhelming defeat OF Foster, the
Democratic Union candidate for Governor in
PENNSYLVANIA throws TIE whole weight of the
Presid ntal battle upon New York. Pennsyl-
gania is irretrievably lost-the great West pre-
sents no satisfactory signs of a rcscue-the

roIieu the eide OF Victory in 1856 have

of their treacherous leapers There is no hope
remaining for the defeat OF Lincoln but New

Had Mr.. Curtin's ma GRITTY been only FIVE
thousand or less, instead of fifteen or twenty
thousand, "a il is, there wonld have been some

A LESSON TO MICHIGAN-Jmkin, in Indiana,
and Theaker, in Ohio, were defeated in their
respective districts, by barely handful OF
votes--they might both have been saved by the
very least exertion, and would have been, had
it been supposed that there was the slightest
danger. Let these results be a lesson TO Mich
igaa. and especially to the Fourth District
We do not believe this district in danger, but
the LOcOfOco candidate has made an active can
vass, and devoted all his time, and much mon
ey to it, while Mr. Trowbridge, the Republican
candidate, has been upon a bed of sckness.--
Let Us not be secure, in this hour of glorious
results, but be sure that every vote counts.

Last week, the Lansing Journal copies long
article from the Philadelphia Inquirer, as an in
dependent paper, predicting the success Of the
Union ticket in that State. Here is an editorial
from the same paper, which appeared on the
day of election, and which upon several consid,
era,ions, is recommended to the attention of the
Journal:
ITO day is generally considered the decisive
struggle in the Presidential canvass; and this
general impression is so far true, that large
majority for Col Curtin in this State will render
the chance of a combination of the three parties
/ hostile to Mr.. Lincoln very doubtful, and will
very mnch weaken its prospect OF success, could
/ il be effected But still it does not seem TO Us
/ that Mr.. Curtin's defeat will necessarily entail
that of Mr. Lincoln, since the latter is confessed
| ly stronger than the former with his own party,
though undoubtedly such defeat will very much
dishearten the Lincoln men, and proportionably
raise the spri, of their antagonists.
| We suppose that every man who has vote
has, by this time, made up his mind how to cas-
that vote. Last Appeals" and Cards" have
by this time, wrought their full effect for good oil
| i'll. and the RESULT is now already decced, though
it will not be announced till tomorrow. We
hope that every citizen will cast a manly vote
not swayed by appeals 10 MS passions or MI
fears. We have already indicated that we have
no apprehensions for the Union, whatever may
be the result of to-days proceedings We hav,
no patience with any man, or set OF men, whC
attempt to frighten or bully quiet citizens b.
threats OF what somebody else will do if saiC
quiet citizens do not vote 10 please him. An(
We shall sleep as securely tonight in case of Mr.
Curtin's election as shall il his opponent sue
cecds, for we are sure that if each man in on
State performs this solemn duty according to hi
best lights and with pure intention to do right
the result will be right, and there need be M
fears for the consequences"
Here is a dgnifed, manly and sensible rebuk'
to those politicians and newspapers which threat
en- the ruin of the country, unless their advice
is followed, ard their candidates supported
Forsooth, the country is to 60 to the dogs, ant

Mr.. Boris PREDICTS THE ELECTION ar LIN
COLK-A few days since. according 10 the
Times, while John Minor Bolts was in this
city, he was asked by member OF the Ash
land Association whether he would make a
speech in New in behalf OF the fusion ticket
He replied that he would rather not, aud that if
he did it would do the fusion men more harm
than good When asked the reason why. he
said:
Il am going South to speak against Breck-
i,iridge and disunion, and how could l do that
after having spoken here in favor OF a fusion
with that party. He said he had been fighting
disunOn all his lite, and could not now do 9th
erwise-he had lived an honest man and in
tended to die one.
When asked what be considered the prospect
was with regard to the election, he replied:
Sir, there is not peg To hang doubt up
ON that Lincoln will be elected No man an
his senses doubts it,"
With one or two men Ike Mr.. Bolts in every
Southern State, the " Secession and Disun-
ion f." lodges would long ago have ceased to
pay. He has been, from the beginning of the
Kansas-Ncbraska swindle, enlightened fearless,
uncompromisng. He is always and in all
things Patriot. And withal, he is Il wiser
and truer Virgnian than those whose course
and policy has rendered the Ancient Domin-

the foolish threats Of disunion upon Lineoln's

1.-THE Union will in no case be shattered II
will not even be seriously shaken. IL lie rock
on which thousands may make shpwreck of their
hopes, fortunes, and even lives, but which will
itself be unaffected by their criminal madness
Parties will rise and fall; faction NAV rave and
