Colonel Jehn.W Forney spent yesterday

geunsvlvania election, he expressed the
npinioI that Buckalew would be elected BY
from 10 600 to $4,000 majority, and also the
Danncratic candidate for Supreme Judge

Democratic counties will give Increased
snajorities.
We copy the following on the other po-
sitical side from the New York Commercial
a4drertiser:
The Philadelphia North american, after
calm survey Of the political field, concludes
that PENNSYLVANIA will give not less than
10000 majority for Hartrantt IN Oct03er'
and that the Republicans will gain two Con-
.pressmen and the Congressman at large.
last year, in a light vote, the Republican
2naioTitv was more thar Ii, coo. In 1869 it
ISas 1895 In 1868 Grant had 28,898 major
jUy, and at the October election the same
wear. Hartranft, for Auditor General, mad
o677 majority. These various ngures go 10
show that the prospects are not altogether
unfavorable for a Republican success. we
cav this. too, i'll view of the unconcealed
ooppoeition Of Forney and his Press to
Hartrauft, the detection of ap0states ana
other causes Of weakness. The North Amer
dca1t declares that the GOODNESS seward the
State ticket In the northern anu eastern
counties has ceased, and that some OF the
pecently disafected leaders are now at work
for the nominees. The Republicans feel the
impulse of the recent elections by which
eheir hope and courage are inspired. These
influences lift them above the discourage
ments induced by course like that OF Mr.
d7orney, and they have. Re solved to bring
cont full vote in spite Of such intidelity to
1arty. The Democrats do not take the
d4reeIey "crow" very kindly, and the en-
shusiasm manifested by them is OF weak
eand fictitious order. Pennsy lvania has been
regarded as q Greeley or a doubtful State,
but the statement Of the North AmericG''
quits another aspect on the future. The
charges against Hartranft are met by con-
elusive denials, and Attorney General
brewster, in a recent speech, exposes them
in the clearest and most convincing man
ner The Republican quarrel in Pennsyl,,
, wanna absolutely turns upon personal
issue 1t is a mere faction fight, and the
success of the party is put in peril that two
or three men may ventilate their private
Sgriefs and make mouths at each other But
The current has already changed, and We
Rnay look for strong and united Repubh-
Gan vote.
