Two Mere Democratic Newspapers Declare in Favor of Republican Principles.

The Goshen Democrat truthfully’ says: ‘•Maj. Calkins, front the 10:h Congressional ‘•District, comes out so squarely in favor of “Democratic principles ns to greatly ent“barrass the Republican press of this dis“trict.” We regard the Major as a prettygood Democrat in everything except in naifie, and we have a strong hope that he will pursue a very independent course as a member of congress. His present position is much more ratisfactory Io his Democratic mmstiiuents than it is to the Republican crowd. “Hold on and see the salvation hf God,” as A. Lincoln Used to siy.— La forte Argus.
