Of.the States classcd above as Re-
publican, California, Colorado and
Wisconsin, casting ~ votes in the
electoral college, gave Democratic ma
jorities Mt their last general elections.
Should they vote for the Democratic
candidate for President, he will receive
217 votes and the Republican candi-
1852, showing probable Democratic
majority in the electoral college OF 65.
New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and South Carolina which may be set
down among the doubtful States are
here conceded TO the Republicans. The
Democrats have equal chances for
Ohio and Pennsylvania, and with a
sound platform and uncxccptionablo
candidates will carry both. 1t is pre-
dicted by some people that hard
money platform would defeat the De-
mocracy in Indiana. We do not be-
licvc II would, but II is the only State
in the Union claimed in the above
table as Democratic in which such
effect might be produced by hard
money as Democratic issue. On the
other hand California on tho same issue
would with reasonable certainty add
her six votes TO the Democratic column
Thus Democratic President would b,
elected without the vote of Indiana

there was no election for Governor by
the people. But the Legislature being

CRIME UPos CRIaE.--One Of the
means used by the Administration to
clear General Babcock, was to send
rone of the Grand Jurors, named Fox,
after the bill of indictment was found
against "Bab,' who gave Grant 4 Co.
all necessary information, and they ad.
justed themselves accordingly, and, Of
course through perjury of this Grand
Juror, who had been sworn TO secrecy,
and a few other witnesses purchased
for the occasion. TIE appointment Of
Fox's son to n fat Office few days af
ter "the fox" loft Washington, is the
only visible compensation as the price
Of his perjury. That "fox" deserves
to be caught and Gagged for his infamous
conduct.
