A CANDID ESTIMATE.
The Columbus Enquirer, at a time when it
is too late to accuse him of figuring for effect,
makes what he claims to be a “ candid esti
mate" of the Presidential result thus :
For Lincoln—New England, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wis
consin and Michigan, 88
For Bell—Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Louisi
ana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, 72
For Breckinridge—All the other Southern States ex
cept Delaware, 46
For Douglas—Illinois, India, la. Iowa, California, 32
Doubtful—Delaware, Oregon, Minnesota. 1q

and say no more about it. But there’s no use

ern.citizen to go into the Territories with his
slaves. But the main article in the' Chicago
Platform, which Lincoln has also qgomised ta
enforce, declares, that the Southern citizen
shall be divested of this rignt by act of Con
gress, and Lincoln has declared repeatedly,
that he would vote in Congress for such a pro
hibition, Dred Scott to the contrary notwith
standing. Mr. Lincoln then, will swear to sup
port the Constitution, which declares the deci
sions of that Court the S/upreme Law, while com
mitted to violate it in this particular. He will,
so far as we can arrive at a logical conclusion,
(and if any body can get at any other reasona
ble conclusion, we should like to. understand
how he docs it,) begin his- administration by
perjury in respect- to the Constitution, or by a
fraud upon his own party. We are afraid his
promises are not worth much.
FAULTY ARITHMETIC. • '
A recent article we have copied from -the
Richmond Enquirer, has drawn upon that print
the anathemas of Judge R. H. Field, of Char
lottesville, who says:
“These Southern Disunionistswant a South
ern Confederacy, mainly to openrthe slave trade
and thereby become enabled to purchase Afri
can slaves at one hundred and fifty dollars to
cultivate their cotton lands. The price of ne
groes here will fall at least one hundred per cent

Tho Hail Hoad Festival in Savannah.
From a report ofjhe Republican of the Fes
tival in Savannah-last Friday, on occasion of
the completion of the Charleston A Savannah
Rail Road, we see all the toasts and remarks
took a political Turn. That paper says:
“The last toast was as follows, and we can
not better describe the speeches generally than
by saying it embodies, with an exception or
two, the pervading sentiment of them all.

—Lincoln.
There was no response, nor, indeed, was it
necessary, as during the evening the subject
had been fully discussed, the sentiment of all
the speakers who alluded to it being one of re
sistance, in some form, to a Black Republican

Was honored with a fair audience last even

^gpuraging circulars to merchants'^ this place,
from mercantile firms in New York, promising
’good news from Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
New York. We caution every body from bet

money will be lost No doubt large expendi
tures and intense efforts have been made by the
New York fusionists within a fortnight, aad per
haps they have had some effect; but the move
ment has been too late to do any good.

The attack upon the. Taku forts has been
postponed for 15 or 20 days, it is thought, as
the difficulties to be encountered are of greater
magnitude than was originally believed. The
whole surrounding country is one immense-mud
flat, through which a causeway leads in tpc di
rection of the forts ; it is wide enough for 6 or
8 men to march abreast, and terminates about
’our miles from the village of Paytang. At this
termination is planted a Chinese battery which
weeps the causeway, and between it and the
irts there are 4 or 5 entrenched camps which
:st be stormed ere the forts are reached. The
;8 are constructed of mud and piles, are well
,ed and thoroughly garrisonedJby choice Tar-
‘ oops. The Chinese have completely bar

as “men who ate raw rat meat, and smelled

LATER FROM"YUCATAN.
New Orleans, Nov. 3.—The schooner Bril
liant, with Campcaehy dates to the 13th ult.,
arrived here to day. She reports an outbreak
and a new civil war nt Yucatan, caused by im
position of inland duties on goods from Cam-
peachy and a contention for the Revenues of
Carmen Islands.
The General Government and the neighbor
ing provinces were prepared to invade Cam-
peachy, but the latter anticipated their move

quered it and compelled the Government to sign
a treaty of peace.

AVIDE-AWAKE ON
The Buffalo Republic is fifopomtibkT for the
following humorous sketch
In our quiet peregrinationilfon Sunday even
ing last we ran across a-TSpecitnen of the genus
VVUhfcAwake, whose ajrrns wqfe most affection-
atelyentwined around a lamp post. Looking
down Niagara street, his attention was attrac
ted by a double row of lamps which line either
side of the beautiful avenue. Holding on to
thg lamp-post with one arm, he made several
spasmodic efforts to move his hat from his brow,
and after several fruitless attempts he succeeded
in placing it firmly on the occiput. Straighten
ing himself up, he gave eloquent utterance to
the following soliloquy : v
“Splend’ ’splay, (hie)ain’t? L’l Gints (hie)
can’t get up such splep’ ’splay (hie) no ’ow.—
Won’t it leek (hie) Linkin? AVantt’know sez’t

At this crisis in the soliloqtiy of the Wide-
Awake, one of the night policemen came up and
tapping him on the Shoulder, diked-him Wr go
along with him.
AVide-Awake—“How’n h—o’spose a feller

AVide-Awake—“Mi ’ife (bic)’t got eape’n at,

The Watohman'kindly devoted a few minutes
to explanation of matters, but finding that he
could not convince the ardent AYide-Awake of
his error, he took him home, l'he last words
of the Wide-Awake, a» be reluctantly Igft the
scene which afforded him so much delight,
were, “Splen’ ’splay, hie ’splay.”

I proceeded to Europe and brought over to New York the

the great tragedian, Mb. Edwin Forrest, who after a four

his term this favorite cosmopolitan temple of the drama,
