The assurances of victory grow brighter and
stronger every hour. There is no mistaking
the fact-the Republicans of the State now feel
high confidence in a glorious triumph. Our
adversaries began with loud boasts, and with
some advantages. The advantages have turned,

Wanting of their great majority, they are now
desperately appealing for help. Republicans!
The tide is now unmistakably in your favor.

At last here it is. Something startling,
being. Mighty in its prosaic beauty, lofty in
its grand conception and marvellous in its i'm
mense muchness. The editor of the Raleigh
(N.C.) Sentinel knows how to fire the Demo-
cratic heart and his own mouth simultaneously
and with effect. Hear him "Let theDemo-
cratic party in North Carolina and in all the
republic cast out everything that is1corrupt,
everything that is dishonest, everything that
is not, as Mrs. Caesar should have been, above
the loftiest squirt Of the steam fire-engine of
reproach or suspicion. No other policy will
win in the great struggle of re, which seals
the dignity of half the world for liberty or
slavery, for glory or despair" Whoop Ia

great logic.

Republicans of New York who are in our
midst, half million Democrats sweeping on
towards your native Commonwealth like q re-
lentless tornado, bound to rule or ruin; else
ruin and rule Why do ye Lie like sluggards
sleeping, when this horde is preparing to as
sault your citadell Arouse, ye freemen
arouse, We balloters ! and If ye be men, snatch
up your barpet-cags and secure your round-trip
tickets, and light out for your native affairs
and your old home-fres, and there offset the
baneful influence of this demi-million crowd !
Something must be done, and to be done brown
1t should be done quickly.
The young man who is unfortunately trying
to manage the great daily paper founded by
Horace Greeley once again screams shrilly for
investigation. For some reason he does not
appear to be entirely suited with the Red Cloud
commissioners report, and seems to think that
the circumstances Of the case are such as to
justify his demand that Congress make
thorough investigation of the subject. There
is something about his proposition for another
investigation that meets our armest approval.
The commission just reported, composed of
men possessing unimpeachable characters, has
proven by figures which cannot lie that the
affairs of the Indian Bureau are in better
condition to-day than ever before; that in the
disbursement of millions little If any loss has
been incurred; that the peace policy Is sue
cess reaching far beyond the expectations Of
the most sanguine; that quarter Of million
