CONSERVATIVE PEEss.-Judging from
the tenor of recent article in the Fort

per-we are certain that its editor viii

Chicago. on the basis of bis late lettsr.
The New Albany Tribune, Seymour
Times, and Rising Sun Visitor viii also
support him with the greatest enthusiasm.
while. in our opinion, rather than to sup
port Seward or Chase, they would remain
neutral, unless a constitutional Union
candidate should be offered them on tru.
ly national platform.
The Greencastle Banner and Corydon
Argus, we are very confident, would SUP
port Seward or Chase with the greatest
reluctance, even on the most conservative
platform, and not even in that case Il
they could avoid it by supporting con-
sentative man with any hope of success.
The Jacksonville Republican and We
Vay ReviIle could we believe, be counted
on for Bates or Mclean, but not for Sew
ard or Chase.

Northern part of the State--and even in
the more ultra Republican portions-ars

There is another class Of papers which
might support Bates or Mclean that
could not be induced to advocate the cleo.
ton of Seward or Chase. We mean tie
neutral and independent papers. There
are several in this portion Of the State.
The press is pretty sure indicator of the
drift Of the public mind. We think We
are safe in saying that Mr.. Bates Is the
FIRST choice Of large majority Of those
Opposition papers in this State, which
have bad the boldness to express their
preference We feel certain that not one

BATES AND CLAY.-The ground then

in Mr.. Bates declaration Of hostility to the
extension Of slavery into the territories. g
dOctrins of universal scceptsnce upon the
part of the fathers Of the Republic, and
the wisest men who have succeeded them.
Shall we therefore fear to acknowledge that
we are disciple of Henry Clay because

dignity Of our manhood, and on the soil

TIE CHICAGO NoMEEE.-Some one at
Chicago writes to the New York Tri.
bune, that Seward would carry Illinois
by at least 5000 majority against even
Mr.. Douglas. Such assertions betray
gross and inexcusable ignorance of popu-
lar sentiment, and are calculated to do
mischief. We have most profound adj
miration for the emiasnt ability and pat
riotic craftsmanship of Mr.. Seward, and
would cheerfully give him our vote could
it make him President; but we have to
deal with facts as they exist, and a most
palUable one to every we'll informed man
is, that Seward cannot carry Illinois I'M
der any conceivable circumstances. Dou-
glas would beat him in the neighborhood
of $4,000 votes, and even JEFF. Davis
could carry the State against him. We
honestly believe that Seward could not
carry more than two-thirds Of the Re-
publican vote in this part Of the State,
leaving out Of the question the thousands
Of middle-men who prefer us to the De-
mocracy. Success is. duty with tbs
Republicans, and any man who is I'M
willing to sacrifice personal preferences
for the triumph Of our common princi-
Piles, is unworthy to share in the glorious
destiny that awaits the Republican party.

the selection Of this venerable statesman

tures
= Baton ROUGE, December l0.-The Cover
nor. in his message 10 the extra session Of
the Louisiana Legislature, exhorts calmness
and deliberation. 5- 90 -r
He says that the election of Lincoln shows
that the Northern mind is poisoned against
the South, that the wise counsels of our faith
ers are forgotten, and the fraternal remon-
strances of the South are disregarded. o.
He recommends Convention, and says
Louisiana ought not to refuse to meet her
sister slaveholding States in council, to de-
mand of the North the repeal of obnoxious
legislation and guarantee against future
similar measures. He says that these cues
tions should be met before the Inauguration
of Lincoln, because the selfrespect and
honor Of the State does not cOmport with
her remaining under Black Republican
President d sSi1 C~1
A resolution recommends the erection of
military board, and asks an appropriation
of $500, 900 for the purchase of arms for
volunteer companies. -.y
The members are not disposed to act
hastily, but favor preparation for any emer-
gency.

THE MODE OF CoLoRING GoLD.-Different
shades of color are given to ornaments of
gold by exposing them to chemical agents,
and silver alloy, while they have scarcely
any action on the gold. The French jewellers
possess number of recipes for giving color
10 gold, the most common of which is mix
ture of two parts nitre, one part sea salt and
one of Roman alum. The jewels are kept in
a solution of these chemicals, at boiling
point, from fifteen to twenty-five minutes,
when they are then taken out, washed in
water, and the operation is finished. The
surface ofthe gold is dull, but perfectly uni
form, but can be made lustrous by burnish-
ing. They lose about one-sixteenth Of their
weight by this operation.
