The Charl.St0l Is. c. Nc,rs thus csti
mates the prospects Of the Presidential can
vas.
Our readers may desire to have our opin
ion upon the probable results Of the Presi
dental struggle or course, no one can alb
solutely foretcll what the American people
at this fearful crisis, may determine through
the ballot box. If they were fully aware o.
the peace Of the country and the Union it
self hung ulon it, we would un.,esitatingy
say that Breckenridge would be elected
But the spirit of section and party rule then
still, and prejudice and passion irresistibly
pervade the contest: Under their influence
our conviction is apprehensivc that Lincoln
the Black Republican candidate. will b,
elected. If the votes of the fifteen Southern
States, and of California and Oregon, bt
claimed for Breckenridge and Lane, "nd they
will most probably obtain them, they only
amount to 127 in the Electoral College con
slstin, of 303 votes The other (76) votes
to be cast by the Northern States, must un
der present calculations, be conceded to
Lincoln In those States there will be -four
electoral tickets, headed w Douglas, Bell,
Breckinrid re and Lincoln The entire OPP
posi- n to the Black Republicans, already n
alarge majority in most of them, will be di-
vided among the parties of the first three
candidates, and leave Lincoln with plurali-
ty in every Northern State 1t would be
doubtful, whether in a single contest be-
tween him and any one Of them, he would
not carry the whole 1t is great mistake
to suppose that in single contest Douglas
could carry Pennsylvania against hln--that
was conceded on all sides at Washington
Breckenridge might do it. Bat as it is, Lin.
coin must carry it.
Our present impression is, that Douglas
will not obtain single elect oral vote His
only chance is for Missouri-and but q
chance Bell and Everett may carry Vir
ginia, Maryland and Tennessee, under Ger
tain contingencies, and the division of tht
Democracy into two parties. But the popu
larity of Breckinridl &c and Lane, and the
disposition of the Democracy of each State
to maintain its unity, will, no doubt, SWEEP
those States.

KEEP CgOE..

Keep cool the secret of success in life
Lies not in haste, excitement, hustle, strife,
This ''boting dinners" hurrying to and fro;
Keeping mp one continued, constant" go;"
Taking your pleasure-j aunts at railroad speed,
And never stopping aught to see or heed;
This going to China, ust to have chat,
Taking but one clean dicky in your hat;
These are features of the times, own,
That give to modern life is zest and tone;
But do they bring real, genuine joy,
True happiness, unmixed with base alloy?
Keep cool; don't strive for sudden wealth too fast
Fortunes quick made are seldom known to last.
