/ Proof that the Sreekinridse Desnoc-
racy carried Indiana for the Re
pubifeans.
We copy the following conclusive article
from The Louisville Journal of saturday,
In speech on Tuesday, at Jeffersontown,
Col. Duncan fully exposed the coudnct of the
Brcckinridge men in Indiana. He clearly
proved the fact that enormous gains sOTe made
BIZ tie republicans an those counties ,eheFe the prin-
opal Brectinridge strength lies We give the
counties in a tabular form below. Some of
the strong Democratic counties have been
completely reYolutioniz.d and turned into
Republican counties. 1t is = very singular CO.
incidence that in these BreckinTiG ge strong
holds the gain for the Republicans is general
ly Just double the estimated strength before ths
election, of the Breekites. Compared with the
vote Of 1856 there is just 12.768 Republican
gain in these nineteen counties. When we
| reflect that the Republican majority in the
State is oRly about siI thousand who can fail
to see that Bright, Fitch. Eccles and their
tools have given Indiana TO Lincoln? In the
enumeration of these counties we did not in
clude Clarke county, where a sufficient num-
Der Of Bell men voted for the Democratic
| ticket to Offset the Breckenridge vote for
Lane. The home of the editor of the
| Breckite organ of the State, the "Old Line
Guard" is Lawrence county. The gain
there is 776. DR.. Fitch made speeches in
Miami, Wabash, and Tippecanoe counties
against the Democratic ticket, and the Re-
publican gain is l,03I. Jesse Bright exer-
cised his influence in Madison, and the Re-
publican gain in Jefferson is 446 Judge
Hughes left Washington city and came out
to Bloomington, his former residence, where
the Breckies claim to have a majority, and
the consequence is republican gain of 739
III Monroe, and a stauneh Democratic county
goes Republican. Judge Eccles and Mr.
Scott, the one an elector and the other
candidate for Congress on the Breckenridge,
ticket live in Putnam county. The Cincin-
matt GGzSte of the 10Th, a Republican or
gan, had the following dispatch sGreen-
CASTLE Oct. 8. breckenridge lenders and candi-
dates C0teI for Lane htre today" That stannch
Democratic county also went Republican
with a gain of $50. In Laporte, the Breck-
ties have been very bitter against
Douglas, and gaia is roc. In Iudi-
annapolis, the Br, ekites organ has de-
n0unced the Democratic State ticket, and
the gain there has been l,0S2. This is anoth-
er OF the points where Mr.. Bright has infu-
ence- But why enumerate these counties
one by one? The fact is sufficiently estab-
iished hat IN these BreeEsts Str0ngholds tcit a
tuH vote cast, TIE Republicans gain nearly double
TIE actual minority for Lane. Some Bell men
nnquestiOnably voted for Lane, who was

ton of the Republicans and Union men, ear
ly in the spring, before the Presidential can
didates were nominated. Old Wings who
prefer Mr.. Bell and will vote for him, were
asked to vote for Lane as an old Wing, and
as the candidate whom they were bound in
honor to support, because they had agreed
before to vote Tor him as an Opposition"
candidate, Most, however, declined to do
so, when their trne policy was shown them,
not to strengthen Mr.. Lincoln But what in
efable scorn, contempt, and eXecration do
The minions of Bright deserve? They went
into convention and nominated a full ticket
They swore up to the last hour that they
would support that ticket. and then assassina-
