It's All over But the Shouting.

It's all over but the counting of votes
and the shouting. Reliable estimates, care
fully made, of the vote in every county
of the district indicates the nomination
of Col Breckenridge by an overwhelm-
ing majority. Everywhere his friends
are surprised and encouraged as the polls
of the precincts come in, and his strength
always exceeds the most sanguine expec-
tations of his friends.
And, now that his nomination is as
certain as any future event can be, may
we make suggestion to his friends:
Keep cool? Do not let your political OPP
ponents ruffle your temper. Let them
have monopoly of all i'll humor. In
view of the splendid victory on the 18th
of September we can not afford to be
other than generous-and besides, after
the primary we want our misguided
brothers to help us elect Col. Breckin-
ridge in November by as large majority
as he will have in the primary.-Bourbon
