REPUBLICAN, PROSPECTS.
Tha: Lincoln will be elected, We believe for
the following reasons which are conclusive:
h w.ll carry all New England. The re-
sultin Vermont, New Hampshire, and Mazsa-
chusetts has never been dcubtsd, even by the
INST shameless Of the Douglas bragga1ts. The
recent election in Maine, confidently claimed
By the Douet4sites, is decisive as 10 the YER
di:t Of tlat S.atc. In Connecticut tlls bogus
Democracy Lave spit almost through the mid
die Of the cd organization. Tee Douglas
men have simon.pure national Democratic
ticket in the field, and the Dreckinri'gers
bava another Of the samo sort. Tneir battle
IL fierce and bitter. Mr. Lincoln's plurality
rill 20. be less than 10000. In Rhode Island,
1hers is 20 contest. Mr.. Douglas risnds there
admit that I.cola will rsceive The
vote Of tbs State: the lies told here
about Democratic prospects there ara laughed
at where tie t1ullris known. In New York,
I'll attempts to fuse the opposition into one
mass hare hcpsless'y failed. The conflict, Sc
in Connecticut, is irrepressble and tbs St"
ie given up to the Republicans. lie p..-
Slavery men, but for the disastrous eject Ct
the confession in Pennsylvania and Indiana,
would acknowledge the truth aud retire from
tbs field. Tncre is no mora d,ubt nbous tho
vote Of New Tors than that Of Vermont She
will 20 fer Lincoln BY au unprecedented ma.
5ority. In Pennsylvania, the show Of con"
test is sill kept up, by Mr. Douglas friends,
not with tie expectation Of carrying the S:ato
against L:ncclo, but in the hope Ct electing

und saving two or three co5gfessmen in Tie

cao3, by D decisive majority, appears
to be !oregoas conclusion. His OPP
poncnts are securing the streets Of Now York,
Washington and Baltimore for tae funds nec-
essary to def.at the peoples choice; but they
arr no: successful in finding anybody who has
Suy interest in the local politics Of State, that
will impel the sending Of material a.d to that
ouar.er. Well informed Republicans say that
the msj rity for Cour:in will not be less than
10000, although bis opponent is sustained by
bota winss Of tho Democracy. We believa
their calcu'a.ious 10 bs correct If they are,
L:nc,la will get plurality of 10000, because
in Nosember tno o;p=sirg factions will vot+,
each its oEn electoral ticket, Hs will carry
j d5ub;:lu1; bu! III Eastern friends are net at
ill appreht n.iyo Of the loss Of our ticket there.
Tho contest i. keen and exciting; but all the
airaatsacs mrs with tho Republicans. We
have ii:tle doubt Of their ability to overcome
apuni.ed opposition whatever tim. they
will utterly overwhslm TINT opposition when
divided and encountered in detail. Ohio and
Michigan ara concsded TO the Republicans on
nll hands. No pro-s!avefy MN has The au.
daci.y to c.aim either for B=ll, Bfeckinridgo CT
Douglas. Indiana is c1,ssly fought, but tnly
on the Stats ticket. The late Of that is to be
decided on the OH Ct 0:to5er. Hendricks,
1he pro slavery rnan, has tho support Of an
united party AID q portion Of HI. Balls friends;
bit in spite Of the coalition, We are assured
By tho best informed politicians in ths State
that Lane and all the Republican NOMINEES
will succeed. They have caovassed the State
thoroughly and faithfully, nod admitting larger
msj,ritics in the pro-alavery counties than the
pro-slayery men CAIN, ard making liberal
deduction from the anticipated majorities IN
the Republican counties, then the Republican
triumph viii! be expressed by figures repre-
a.ntipg more thaa 5000. In November
fur clsctorsl tickets will be run. Lincoln
will hare clear msjority over al1, aud a ma
jority orcr the highest OF 10000 to 10000
votee. Mark the predi on! We need not
tell our readers tha. We havs assurances from
all parts Of Illinois, which convince us that
Douglas will be beaten full 10000. The bat
tie in this State was decided a month ago, and
in favor Of her favorite son - HONEST OLD
ADE! The certainty Of Republican Lesis-
l,:urn is net go veil dstiEed. A clean w1rk-
ing mej ority in each House is that for which
the fight now goes en-. TrumbuA will be re-
turned to tho United S!a:es Senate. Iowa,
Mmnrsoss, and Wisconsin are not in dispute,
Each one Of them will unquestiouatly yote for
Lincoln, and by decisive msjoritT. There
remain, then, Of the free Safes only California
aud Oregon. To the first we lay no claim.
Th. chancsa il Oregon are divided between
Lincoln and Douglas, The cdds ia favor o: the
former. Though not immaterial how she votes,
her veice, except il contingency not likely
70 oc:ur, vii hare little weight in the grand
result Our count stands thus:
