his return from thorough canvass of
Posey County. The Judge entered
upon the work last week, just from a
sick bed, the fever having hardly left
him; and we very much feared he
would not be able to go through the
heavy weeks work marked out for
him. But he came out of it refresh
ed and invigorated, and with highly
encouraging reports from Posey He
says the county is safe for the Union
ticket, and the only question is how
large the majority shall be-. We say
to the loyal men of Posey, pile up the
majority SO high that Copperheadism
shall never again have courage to
raise its reasonable head in your
midst. fta.4f be - -
The Judge spoke at Newburgh on
Saturday night, and will speak this
afternoon at Boonyille, and will
thoroughly canvass Warrick County
this week.. Next week he goes into
Dubois and Pike Counties. We are
glad to see him so thoroughly In
earnest. We call upon our friends in
the counties where he is yet to speak
to make extra efforts to get out large
crowds, as there is no speaker, how
ever great his reputation, who will do
as much good as j.. @. DEBRULER.
His speeches are every where spoken
of in unbounded praise by our friends.
His review of NIBLACK's record is
most searching. The excoriation he
gives him is terrible. No honest man
can hear him, and then go to the polls
and vote. for NIBLAcK with quiet
conscience. His speeches are doing
much good, and Union men should
exert themselves to see that the men
who need to hear him are brought out
to his appointments. ,laa} nrs6i4a.
We say to our friends every where
throughout this District, work for the
election of Judge DEBRuLER, and for
the defeat of the man who has so
grossly and reasonably misrepresent9
ed us. We firmly believe thathis cleo
ton can be secured, if every man in
the Union ranks goes to work with
hearty good will, and from this day
to the election does all he can for the
cause, The defeat of NIBLAcK is by
no means impossible. No man ever
made "a more lifeless and>indifferent
canvass. He has no where succeeded
in awakening any enthusiastic He
can not rally his friends. N o man
ever made race before an enlight-
ened and loyal people, with such
record of disgrace and treason.nefH
On the other hand, with us every
thing is suspicious. The great Union
party of the country never was so
thoroughly aroused and united. And
the victory in Maine, so complete and
overwhelming. has givenit fresh cour-,
age and enthusiasm. There can be
no doubt but that the whole North
will be swept by the hurricane of 10y
atty and constitutional reform, and
that, in place of merely sustaining
Congress, the people will give it in
creased strength in additional repre-
sentatiyes. There never was a more
opportune period in which to redeem
the Pocket from the thralldom of
Democracy. The First District of
Indiana can be carried for the Union
ticket, and Judge DEBRULER can be
triumphantly elected to Congress
and it is our bounden duty to do it.
Seven counties in the district are GER
tain. We say to our friends in other
counties. put down glorious old Van
derburgh for 600 majority for the
Union. Spencer and Pike are each
good for 300 Warrick and Gibson will
Scarcely do their duty with $50 each
many Of the best informed place the
figures much higher. Posey and Da-
yiess will certainly go for the Union
by 100, and that figure can easily be
doubled. Here. is 1,700 majority,
which with faithful work can be
made 1000. Our friends in Knox
assure us they will carry the county,
and so they are becoming sanguine in
Martin, where our friends are work
ing like beavers In Dubois, no man
is more popular than Judge DEBRU-
LER, and one weeks canvass will
greatly change the result there. This
