The friends of Mcclellan in Indiana,
are at work with renewed vigor, and are
confident OF carrying the State at the
November election by handsome major
ity. The epublicans have succeeded in
the recent State election, by less than ten
thousand, in eleclng Governor Morton
while the Democrats have elected a clear
majority Of the State Senate, and perhaps
a majority Of the House. The Republican
majority was secured only through sys.
tenn Of the most uublu'hng frauds, an OK.
traordinary expenditure of money, and the
votes Of soldiers from other States. 1t
was generally conceded throus hout the
canvass thai Morton was at least twenty
thousand votes stronger than Lincoln,
owing to his acknowledged ability as a
man and an officer, his great personal
popularity, and his incessaut individual
efforts in behalf of the soldiers. Thousands
of soldiers who voted for Morten will vote
Mcclellan in November. Thousands oil
Germans, formerly ranged under the ban.
ner OF Fremont, voted for Morton, who
will not vote for Lincoln.
In Wisconsin the Democracy are max
ing very active and vigorous canvass,
and large aceessions are reported in near
ly every part of the State. In the Con
gressional cleo, ion Of 1869, the Republican
candidates were beatrn about nineteen
hundred in the aggregate vote Gncluding
soldiers) of the State. Michigan is in a
state of political ccmmotion. 10 1862 The
Republicans were successful by about
5000 in total vote of l3l 900. We
hear from there that the stand the vener-
able and Influential GEN. CAss has taken
in behalf of Mcclellan, has produced a
fine effect, and that there is good prospect
of Democratic victory on the 5'h.
We say 10 The true friends Of the Con-
sti,ution and the Union, that the chances
Of Gen. McClellan's election are not only
fair, but highly fattering We can over
come the influences OF official vanality
can beat back the corrupt gang of poIit
ical hyenas, can triumph over braggadociu
and intimidation, if the lovers OF gooo
government will but half improve tn,
short time now intervening until the SIt
of November, Never was there such Il
stake to call forth the jealous exer'ors Of
every patriot. Freemen ! behold til,
splendid structure built by the most re
vered of our ancestry, now in peril from
the yandal hands of fanatics ! Will you
stand idly by and see that glorious TEN
pie, with all its precious heritage., con
sumed iu the red flames of revolution =
viii you not come TO the rescue, layi
aside all party feeling, smothering al
personal resentmeDts, resolved to save ant
preserve our prostate country? All,
the struggle should be 10 st-if liberty AM
public virtue shall 60 down through list
lessness OF apathy, We envy not The feel
ings of those who, when all shall hav
been destroyed, must be striken with tn
, repentant reflection that "it might hav
: been otherwise ~ But what must be tn
inexpres sible JOY of those who, bendin
, spirit, courage, heroSm to he salvation
the Government in all its pristine noble
ness, shall, on the evening of Tuesda
next, be able TO congratulate one anoth
!, upon the achievement Of q grand victor
, "a country "redecmed, rcgeuerated ar
disenthralled."
