As im portant and bitterly waged as is the cotsti in those States, it is as othll comlipa1red With ithle allxiety with ilich the South, like a bound an3d help!css capt ive, views the doubt ful struggle that will either destroy or lib crato her. Tor theissuo is jinled upoln bor full. Its iimpoIsibl to forsee how it wil result an1d the utmost wo call feel assured of, is that it will be close and well contested. Tlie Democrats enter the field with tic prestige of several gallant victorie and with hos perefreshed by the oxiii hition of a genuml4e 11enotion and teimi pered with t he priidece and experi once of successire defeats.

As an evi-lence of tho closeness of NorthI-ern electiols, it, will ie seen that though live days have elapsed, no definito knowledge of the result, seems to be had.
