seven hundred. In the Fifth district, General
Coburn, Republican, will be again returned, and
this time by L,5o0 majority. In the Sixth de
trict, Mr.. VOORHEES, finds great difficulty in per
suading his constituents that he and Mr.. Gree
ley are the two greatest men Of This or any other
age, and still feels doubtful of the result. The
worst that can be said of the district is thati 1t Is
doubtful, and that If voorhees, succeeds at all
it will be by a scant 800 majority; the chances
even of this are with him only because the dis
trict has always been hppelessly Democratic, rs
otherwise Gen. Hunter, the Republican nominee,
would be sure of election. As 1t is, he has some
prospect of defeating the champion crow-enter.
OF the Seventh district little need be said, rs
Judge Csson, Republican, is sure of elect on by
not less than GOO majority, and the same remark
applies to the Eighth, where Gen. Tyner, Re
publican, will be returned by at least 1900 ma
jority. In the Ninth district, Gen. Shanks, re
publican, will, for local reasons, fall behind The
state ticket, but will still be elected by 500 ma

Republican, will get the full majority of $500

Republican member, will be reelected by no

A careful review of the situation in Ohio
and Indiana by the correspondent of the
Times gives the assurance of victory on the
9Th instant, and confirms the reports from
other sources that we have from time to
time been printing in the JOURNAL. In In.
diana we are told That all the State there
is the utmost enthusiasm among the Repub-
LEANS, who are only awaiting the signal to
be at their old enemies, reinforced by some
three thousand soreheads. During the last
few days the Democrats ere said to have
gained so much courage that they are now
venturing to make bets On Hendricks, but
this confidence is accounted for BY the fact
that the Greeley exchequer has been very
recently replenished. There, as in Ohio
and Pennsylvania, they are making their
last fight, for if these States should go against
them. they know that success in November
is out of the question. The Tones corre-
spondent reviews the Congressional field as

AN the indications from Ohio, Indiana
and Pennsylvania presage a handsome Re-
publican victory to-day, notwithstanding
the desperate efforts which the opposition
have put forth to carry one or more of these
States for Mr.. Greeley. Nor will either
Iowa or Nebraska give forth any uncertain
sound. The confidence which the Demo-
cats manifested a few days ago in the
election of Buckalew in Pennsylvania, has
manifestly subsidized within the last few
days, althoughthe withdrawal of the Labor
Reform candidate has caused them to pick
up a little hope in the last day or two.
We can say to our friends, Be not disturbed.
The skies are still bright; the signs are
all suspicious. North Carolina has
shown that the South is not all one way.
Vermont and Maine assure US that the East
is safe. West Virginia tells us that the
great iron belt Of the country'is impregna-
bly, secure. Ohio and Indiana will add
Their testimony to the stability of the ma
tional voice to-day. Iowa and Nebraska
will speak for the more extreme West.
And Pennsylvania, the keystone of Il 9
original arch, will attest its strength ard
durability, by giving the coalition the
worst " black eye" it has yet had in these
preliminary skirmishes of the campaign.
The frauds Of Mcclure and Randall will not
save them nor viii the m~omentary defec-
ton Of Curtin break the firm lines OF the
Administration party in that State.
But should we be mistaken in this, and
Hartranft go down by reason Of detection
in the Republican ranks, the vote on tie
Congressman at large will show that the
State is invincibly for Grant when it closes
up its columns in November next. The
triumph Of Buckalew to-day will be no tri-
umph for Greeley then. We are conf
dent that all will go well. Our forces
are every where confident. They have the
prestige Of success with them. Their
