During a late visit al Louisville Governor
MoHroS stated to soterie of his political friends.
that the success OF the Republican party in the
election then soon TO take place in this State
would be inevitable. He gave reasons for the
conclusion that all the influential men of Indiana,
ali the elite OF Indiana society. all the patronage
Of the national and State Governments. were ex-
erting their influence for that result. These con-
sIderations he thought sufficient TO warrant his
expressing the most G1doubted confidence in
the success of his purity friends. Like the magi
clan he considered il only necessary to move his
wand over the State to direct the thoughts and
action of the people into the channel he desired
But the deIusion Of the Governor was not more
complete than the illusion produced by tie most
accomplished professor Of the magical art. He
tried the trick Of turning rice into bon bons. but
when he opened his box the rice, and not the bon
bons. would appear
His Excellency and a good many other
foolish people may learn one lesson from
the recent expression Of public sentiment
in Indiana, and that is that influential people
and the "elite" of society-,he bubbles that float
upon the surface-may exercise a very powerful
influence upon public sentiment when upon the
right side. but when upon the wrong track they
have To 60 where the wind listeta. IL i evident
that the Republican leaders have very different
impression of public opinion since the election
from what they had before. If not better. per

them To learn wisdom

ArFAIRs BEFORE FREDERICKSBURG. A
letter e the Philadelphia Inquirer, dated at
Falmouth on Wednesday, the Goth instant,
speaks as follows OF the defensive preparations
and force of the Conftderates.
1.-The presumption is that in very few days
we will have battle in this vicinity that will
eclipse all others Of this wal in regard to
ferocity and ferceness. There is not the slight
est doubt but the Confederates are in great
force on the other side Of the river
equal, if not superior, to our own IN points OF
numbers | have reason to believe that Gen.
Lee is in command, in person, OF the whole
Confederate army Of the Potomac, exceeding,
without doubt, l25, 900 men. This is no fancy
Of the brain. Their canpfres can be seen,
extending at least ten miles along the river,
and from observation, five miles back into the
country This is a powerful army to inter-
cept another army in crossing river, which
is an almost impossible barrier to artillery,
except by bridge.
The enemy, as usual, have picked out an
almost impregnable position, and have been Tor
few days past working like beavers in throw
ing up Notifications. Morning, noon, and
night they are hard at it with spade and pick;
the dirt flying until the walls Or rife pits are
completed Their present position IS on the
brew of range Of high hills, some distance
back of the river with heavy wood in their
rear, and very probably some Of their works
have been erected in the timber, as this is
their usual custom. They have invariably Ia
ken advantage of billy and wooded positions
places that nature has already made secure
from assault It is my opinion that back OF
the present range of hills where their works
are now erected, there is another range which
they will occupy if driven from their present
strong position.
II had an idea that the enemy would not
meet us in force until we reached Hanover
Junction, some thirty miles from here, and
then if worsted, fall back on their line Of works
in front Of Richmond. Their railroad commu-
ncations behind them are intact and of course
they have great advantage over US IN the
means Of Transporting supplies. Our sup
plies have been coming up very slowly, such
IS and has been the condition Of the roads from
our depots. The railroad will very likely be
finished this morning. some time. This will
be the means Of supplying the troops with ra-
tons in abundance AS it now is, with the
wagons, it is an utter impossibility to get ratons
accumulated for two days ahead. Our army
should have at least twelve days rations ahead
SO as to meet an emergency at any time. Our
army is almost powerless without an accumula-
ton ofstores on hand This may sound strange
to those not initiated and clamorous for an
advance. vet it is nevertheless true.

ADULTERA ALTON OE MILk.-At the MlddIe.
sex. England, Sessions a milk dealer named
Jones prosecuted one OF his carriers tor aSppro-
priating to his own use a part OF the milk en-
trusted to him to sell. The jury returned a
verdict of not guilty: but in the course OF the
trial the following facts came out; MessrS.
Ribton and Cooper being the opposing counsel.
Mr. Ribton Now tell ne: Mr. Jones, does
not the milk at times undergo some mysterious
process by which its quantity is materially IN
| creased?
Witness. By nothing injurious, and only
few quarts Of water Not more than TWO
Quarts Of water to eighty quarts OF milk
Mr. Ribton Then you mean to say that
you put nothing into it but water?
Witness. Why, we do put something into
t. as persons do not like milk if it bears the
natural color and so | put water IN 1t, but, to
the utmost. not more than two quarts to eighty
quarts of milk.
Mr.. Ribton. AS you seem in frank mood
7 will ask you, Mr.. Jones, if you put any
thing in the milk besides water?
Mr. Jones. Well, besides the water, put IN
to it a small portion of cheese &C lorlng. Many
persons do not like cheese in It's natural color;
which is white, and others do not like milk OF
a natural color, and so We put into 1t cheese CO.
lorlng.
Mr. Ribton. Then, as some persons DO not
like milk of natural color, you put the water
to take away the color, and then you put IN
cheese coloring to bring the color back again.
A laugh. ...
Mr.. Cooper thought his learned friend had
no right to ask Mr. Jones these questions I'M
less he was in the habit Of supplying him with
milk.
Mr. Ribton. After what he has stated I
should be sorry to drink any Of his mi k at all
Mr.. Cooper I think it has turned out to
be purer than was expected for there has been
no mixture of calves brains with It,

Where Does Julian Stand?

In his card, Mr.. Julian points TO his past
course in Congress. as defining his position
he is rather anxious that the nomin alton
for Congress should be participated in by
Democrats, provided the voice of the mere
partizsn is hushed : but he desires it dis
tirctly understood that he stands by the
flag Of Republicanism' himself! Now.
where does he stand? Democrats must
abandon the flag Of Democracy. while he
stands by tie flag Of Repu5licani,m, and yet
the voice cf the mere partisan must be hush
ed! He likes union of all parties "on a
proper basis" and. judging from his Con-
gresSional record, to which he appeals to
define bis position. the proper basis on
which he can fuse with other parties, is for
them TO acquiese in his coarse and vile abuse
of President Lincoln's war policy, repudiate
the CrittenJen resolutions. which were
