Si. Louis SloMomoorat. t } i ■.* .. ; " i. 1 / ■ PROSPECTUS FOR 1877. The Favwrlte and Leading Newspaper of the West. Daily, Tri-Weekly, SemiWeekly and Weekly. The success of the Globk-Dsmoobat, since the consolidation of which it Is in fact and in name the product, has been such as to excite universal comment. Its circulation has steadily increased since its first issue, and its general business prosperity has kept pace with its circulation. Thus encouraged, its proprietors are determined that in the future no effort will be spared to keep it h) the front rank of Western journalism. Politically, the Glob*-P*moorat is a supporter of the measures of the Republican party, believing that organisation to be beat adapted by its principles aud politics to perpetuate our form of government, and to secure its administration in a manner best calculated to promote the good of tbe country. Tne popular demand is not only for an organ of opinion, but for a' history of the times—something that will come fully up to the poet’s idea of A map of busy life. Its fluctuations and its vast concerns. In this resppet we claim for the GlobeDemocrat a reputation second to that of ao jonrnal in the West, yielding to 10 rival in our efforts to obtain the news, and to present the same in an attractive shape. Our aim is to publish a newspaper adapted to the wants, tastes and interests of the people of the Mississippi Valley. To this end we pay ■special attention to events happening in Missouri and the adjoining States—to watch their progress, and to assist, so far as we can, in their development. The Weekly Globe-Democrat Now an Enlarged Octavo of - FIFTY-SIX COLUMNS, is emphatically a paper for the People—and essentially a Family newspaper. Containing as ittloes a complete summary of the latest and of alt the important news from all parts at the world; a number of Editorials on current topics: a carefully selected and interesting Miscellany; valuable matter for the farmer, housewife, merchant and mechanic; Ithe latest and most reliable Live Stock and Crop Reports; a Financial and Commercial Column-long known as complete, and more reliable than that of any other paper published in the West; which, with the especial attention always given to the progress and the rapid development of the resources of the Great West, enn not bnt make the Weekly Globk-Dkkocbat a most welcome visitor to everv fireside.

Republican GAINS IN iNDIANS- The Party United.

Tbe popular elections which have taken place in this slate within tji® last lew days present some points of general political interest. Tbe fset that Mr. Hendricks, tbe defeated candidate for vice-president, has hhi home here, and that the deptocruoy of this state have been especially noisy in their “war talk,” hep served in some degree to. keep up the popular interest in our state politics created by the summer campaign add the October-election. For some reason or other the opinion seems to prevail tbroughmrtthe country' that tbe democracy in this state are exceedingly will organ ized and very aggressive, and that the republican party is moreor less sh attered and demoralised. Neither of these opinions is correct, and the latter is especially incorrect. The democratic party is not as strong in this state to day »• it was on tho day of the presidential election, while tbe republican party is undoubtedly, stronger. The democracy are making a great deal of noise, but it neither scares nor disconcerts the republicans. On this head the following facts are significant and conclusive:

Witiiin a few days three elections have taken place to fill vacancies in the state legislature—one in Jefferson county, one in Madison and Delaware, and one tis Parke and Montgomery. Id the October election Jefferson county gave a Repub lican majority of 310, Madison gave a democratic majority of 860, Delware a republican majority 1,300, Parke a republican majority of 010, and Montgomery a democratic majority of 133. In the recent senatorial election tl\e republicans carried Jefferson county bySlO majority, and precisely the majority given for Harrison in October; they carried the Madison and Delaware district by 1,700, showing a net republican gain in the two counties of about 1,200 over the Dote* ber vote; and they warned the Parke and Montgomery district by about 360 majority, showing a net repolioan gain since October in tne two counties of nearly 000. The county of {Madison,.which in October gave a democratic majority of 850, now give a republican majority of 170, showing a net republican gain of 1,032, while Montgomery comity, on a square vote between the democratic and republican parties, shows a net republican gain since October of 803. These are very signileswt facta. They prove oonciasiycjjr ifeai th» democratic party in Indiana is not as strong to-day as it waa three mouths ago, and that the republican party is stronger and move united. They prove ftwtlMtr that the rank and file of the democracy do not support the leaders iu their office-seeking crusade and their howl for “Tildeii or war.” The democratic party haa lost the respeet of peaceable* law-abiding men by the fillibutUering course it has pnrmcd, white the republican party has g»i«ed strength add vote* by pursuing an opposite course, and by standing firmly ou the constitution and Jew*. The vote in Madiaoncounty ia especially significant. That baa been considered’a demo* eratio stronghold, and the leader* there have bHSn nMsy and persistent in their howl’ lyr “Tiluen or blood.” The recent el otiou, allowing a net republican gain since October ot 1,032, shew* *h»t the masses aro not with them. It shows, moreover, thst they have not neared nor disconcerted the republicans by their lu** and fury. The same l* iraa of the party throughout <he state. So tar from being demoralised or intimidated by the buccaneering policy of the demoerfcey they are solid as a Stone wall in tb. ; eoWviption that ei lea of the republican party are right, and that tihay.rauet and »baU be mauitaived.-* Jmdinnoftohe Jourpaf. ‘' *■' ’-■« «
