Berks will give Vildcn 1000 majority.
The Democrats OF Pennsylvania are
generally confident since the Western
election, and their leaders predict the
success of Uncle sam. They now
count this state as doubtful, aud look
orUvic,ory unless Philadelphia should
give Hayes majority OF 10000, which

Illinois Safe TO Heat the Republican
Candidate Tor Governor.
The Springfield Register says; "llli-
nois Is safe to-day to beat S. NJ, Col
lum. the Republican candidate for
Governor, leports from every coun-
IS and Congressional district OF the
State, made by careful and reliable
men, have been received here, show
ing the strength of the Democratic and
Independent vote Of the State. These
have been carefully compiled 10y eX-
perieuced aud shrewed men, and the
conclusion of the whole matter Is, that
Lew Steward viii be elected Governor
of Illinois, 10y majority certainly not
less than that 10y which Blue Jeans
carried Indiana. This, II is to be

who know the State, based on figures
sent by men who know thoroughly
the political feeling in the several
counties, and the result we state il
not the highest which these figures
furnish. but is, on the contrary, the
lowest which can possibly be obtained,
after making every deduction and
very liberal, not TO say extravaganza,
allowances for losses and failure TO get
the vote out.

Republicans had absolute control of

to make his opinions on that subject
public. think his letter will be very
satisfactory to the people of the coun-
try, and prevent tie public mind from
being misled.

sion several reports from General Ru.
ger, the commanding officer Of the
Department Of the South, who is now
in South Carolina, which set forth
that there is no violence in the State,
aud that none is threatened, and that
