TH? Campaign In Prnnij-lrnnin.*
Xis very evident that l?fee radic?is
ze the impojtuneo'Wliifljh attaches
to thc campaign now going on in
Pennsylvania. They see* to l>o at
.wotk, an3 arc JnaTOfefl?ug^ dtdormi
-nntion tor^ry 4b^?Smief^m?ti.s meet?
ings aro bciug held in various locali?
ties, and all thc usual devices resorted
to for the purpose of arousing enthu?
siasm for their ticket. Torch-light
processions, Chinese lanterns and il?
luminations ?ire again l>eing brought
into play, she ring that the canvass ht
one of the most earnest and spirited
thai ha? taken jdaee m t he State for
several years. It is not probable that
the radicals will be abie to scatter thc
greenbacks around as profusely as
they did iu the last gubernatorial con?
test; for tho war is now over, and the
army contractors, who were so plenty
in that State, have not the induce?
ment to furnish the greenbacks which
they had at that period. But what
they lack iu greenbacks, they arc evi?
dently trying to make up iu noise and
enthusiasm.
The opposition do not seem to huve
fairly got to work since the adjourn?
ment of the Philadelphia Convention.
Several meetings have been held,
however, and all the necessary prepa?
rations are being made for a vigorous
campaign on that side. From these
facts, wt: infer that the contest will be
a fierce ono, and that every inch o?
ground will be disputed up to thc
very hour of election. As this will bc
one of thc first elections which will
take place in the Central States, tba
result will be of th" greatest impor?
tance, as indicating how far tho re
action has taken place in the publie
miud, and to what extent thc move
mont to repudiate tho usurpations ol
the present radical Congress has pro
greased. It is apparent that the radi
cals feel that if they do not holt
then.* ground in that State, their east
is hopeless in the November clec
tions. Hence this extraordinary ac?
tivity on their part, lt seems tba
they are dilating their attentioi
more to the congressional candidate
than they are to the Governor, ant
are willing to sacrifi?e the latter fo
the saki> of holding tln-ir own in th
election of Cougressnieu; for it is re
ported that they are preparing t
exchange voten on the State ticke
for support of their candidates fo
Congress. This is an important dc
velopraent, showing, as it does, t
what extreme measures they are rc
sorting in order to maintain thei
supremacy in the National Legiski
