The Congressional Election. I'v the returns which we publish to duy, il will he seen that John (». I)avi.«i beats Mr. Barbou-r, Nineteen Hundred voles! This is probably the largest majority received by any candidate for Congress in this Slate, Such an expression of public sentiment, must be peculiarly gratifying to Mr. Davis, and will be treasured up by him as one of the most cherishcd recollections of his life. The fact is, John C«. Davis has the element* of personal popularity, not oxcflled by any man in the not even by Gov. Wright, and the whigs have given up that there is no use in trying to beat him: lust year we predicted for Mr. Davis a brilliant career of usefulness, in the more extended sphere into which ho was then t'titering subsequent events have confirmed us in that opinion, and now, thia new and overwhelming expression of public conSdonee, will inspiiit him to renewed exertions in the cause of-th«! people, and of popular rights and interests. There ia something pleasing in the stead* fastness with which Mr. Davis is supported in i'arko County: it is too often the case that many years of public service engenders rivalries, jealousies, hostilitu few there uro indeed, who escape these malarious influences! but in I'arko county, where Mr. Davis has served the people for the last twenty years, it is considered a matter of courssj, ihnt he bhould be tuccessful, whether political friends, or opponents, are in the majority. The rsauLt of two successive Congressional races, in Districts differently constituted, shows conclusively, tiiat this home popularity follows the man, where* ever he goes it is a part of him, inseparable from him: it is something the people every where, understand and appreciate, and wo advise our whig friends- hereafter, to be careful how they run against John U. Davis.

Justice to Mr Cookerly requires us to say that ho received nearly the unanimous vote irrespective of party of the antt-rclocationists in the county, while his opponent carried the other party with almost the same unanimity. The same question which has defeated Mr. Cookerly has also defeated the Democratic candidates for Representative and Treasurer, electing a whig to the latter otHcn over the present incumbt-m Johu Pickaid.

The Result—Democracy Everywhere Triumphant The last fortnight ha« witnessed one of the most brilliant Democratic victories ever yet recorded1 in the political history of Indiana Although the election of that fried- and faithful public servant JOSEPH A. WRIGHT, and the entire State ticket was confidently anticipated by handsome majorities, yet their easy victory has surpassed the expectations of their more sanguine friends, and has struck consternation and dismay into the ranks of whiggery. A majority of twenty thousand, and an almost unanimous Congressional delegation,is truly a victory of which to be proud. Vet in the face of this triumph they pretend to believe that the State can be carried for Scott. This pretended belief is all gammon, they have no real hope ol carrying the State, and their assertions to the contrary are like the boys whistling in a graveyard, merely to keep their spirits up. This result therefore. gratifying as it is. is the death knell of whiggery in Indiana. Before they cherished a faint hope that a|l might yet be well, but their hopes have been nipt in the bud. Indiaua will give Pierce and King a majority of little less than fiftefen thousand, and all the "Picture Books" and "Whig Expositors" cannot vary the result a whit. If Democrats are active find vigilant, and see that every vote is polled, the Stale cau bo earned in November Bext for Pierce and King by even an increased majority. The last hope of whigery in Indiana having expired, to achieve another brilliant victory in the coming Presidential contest, will be both easy and desirable. Let no stone be unturned in order to accomplish so desirable an object.

Indiana trill go for Scott.

The congressional result in this State shows that there are ten Democratic members elected to congress, and one Whig. SAMUEL W. PARKER of the burnt district is the "lone star" of the whig congressional delegation, and he was elected through Free Soil influence. This result together with the triumphant success of the entire Democratic State Ticket, affords another evidence .that Scott will carry Indiana over the left, by about mi nus fifteen thousand majority. The following are the members of Congress elected. 1st Dist.—Smith Miller, dem. 2d Dist.— Wm. II. English, dem. 3d Dist.—Cyrus L. Dunham, dem. -lih Dist.—James II. Lane, dem. 5th Dist.—Samuel W. Parker, whig, (jt|, Dist.—Thomas A. Hendricks, dem. 7th Dist.—John G. Davis, dem. 8th Dist.—Daniel Mace, dem.

Oth Dist.—Norman Eddy, dem-. lCth Dial.—E. M. Chamberlain, dem. Hth Dist.—Andrew J. Harlan, demt

Democrats 10 Whig 1. The aggregate Democratic majority fonCcngjessmen is about twenty thousand.

An article in the last Express, evidently written by one of the ostcnsible'a sub-rosa's, takes the position that tho recent Democratic triumph in this State does not prove that the State is irredeemably sold to the Democracy. Well, if this election does not establish the fact that the Democratic party are tho majority in the State, what in the name of heaven does it prove? Nicholas McCarty was as strong a candidate as could have been nominated, lie was a man of irreproachable private character, and possessing as much personal popularity as any whig in Ihe State, lie was louse some of the Demagoguical expressions of the whig press, a plain honest old farmer just the kind of a man to suit the peopleV As to their other candidates they were selected with much care, and embraced many ofthe most prominent and popular whigs in Indiana, and yet the entire ticket is defeated by neatly twenty thousand. This settles beyond the possibility of a doubt the political complexion of the State. And il is certainly paying no great compliment to the late whig candidates, who sacrificed so

in consenting to run, to say that the party will rally for Scott while they are disposed to treat (heir claims with contempt.

The way they Account for it.

The Indiana Journal the central whig organ attempts to account for the overwhelming defeat of whiggcrv in this State. It saysf "The increased Democratic majority has been occasioned by the immense foreign population brought in under the new Constitution, which permits persons, who resided in Europe little over a year ago, to vote. Aside from that vote the whigs, the friends of American labor, and of the improvement of rivers and harbors, have a majority in this State.*'

In answer to this absurd stuff the Stase Sentinel says that the same "Journal'' and the whig parly have been bragging all summer about getting this same, foreign vote. Gen. Scott declared, at Madison that he was delighted with the rich brogue of tho Irish, and foreign accent of the German citisen.

Tt»*if argument is that if these foreigners "who resided tit Europe a liule over a year ago," could only be excluded, indiana would he a Whig State. Phis tells where the shoe piuches. After the Novenber election they will talk a little plainer. Mark our prediction.

The next Legislature will be Democratic by a majority of about ffjf on joint ballot, which secure* the election of a democratic United States Senator in place of James Whitcomb, deceased.

TO THE PUBLIC.

MR. EDITOR. The Wabash Express of the 20th inst. in commenting upon the result of the late senatorial election inihis District, uses such language as makes it incumbent upon *ne, in justice to myself and friends, to give a brief history of tbe whole matter. The result may seem to indicate that I have been repudiated by my party, as. asserted by Mr. Danaidson, but the facts will not warrant such a conclusion. It is a well known fact that the election .in Clay county for all the county offices, for Representative and Senator, turned upon one isolated question viz: the relocation of tbe County seat, and such was the feeling, that even this question was carried into the election of some of the candidates for Judge. By the official vote of the county it will be seen that S. B. Gookins, one of the Whig nominees for Supreme Judge, beats A. L. Roache democratic nominee, sixty-nine votes and that Hughes, independent, beats Eckels, democratic nominee, in the county—all in consequence of this relocation question. There is another fact well known to Mr. Danaldson, which is this, the relocation party held a convention and nominated a ticket, from Representative down, for all the county offices.— That they had a straight out ticket printed with only my competitor's name on for the State Senate, ofthe latter fact the Editor of tho Express is fully cognizant, for the ticket was printed at his office. On the Relocation question I took grounds in favor of a General Law on the subject, including a provision to award damages to the property holders of Bowling-Green, in case the county seat should be removed if any accrued, the matter to be settled by Commissioners appointed for that purpose. My competitor favored a local law, and was decidedly against giving to the citizens o£ Bowling-Green any damages whatever. Ilia views coincided with ihe feelings of a majority of the voters of Clay county, mine did not, hence the result of the election in thai county for Senator. I am fully satisfied that, had it had not been for that question, I would have beaten him bad in Clay county.

But my vote in Sullivan county is not so large as the Democratic vote, this is easily accounted for. Mr Combs has a great many personal friends in that county, and owing to the pledge he made to Joseph Wolfe and others that he would vote for

Democrat to till Mr.Whitcomb's place in the United States Senate, if elected, was doubtless the cause of his receiving about one hundred more votes than the whig ticket received in that county. These are the main reasons* why 1 was defeated for the State Senate. I am beaten by 63 votes. received an honorable vote, ono for which 1 am truly thankful, and in consequence, feel myself under great obligations to my friends. I have no repinings at the result—no unkind feeling, being a DEMOCRAT, 1 bow without regret to the will of the People expressed at the ballot box—the safe repository of a Fret-man's voice.

October 21s'., 1852. G, F. COOKERLY.

Hon. nines Whitcomb.

In our paper of yesterday a telegraph dispatch announced the death ofthe Hon. James Whit comb, i^rf

one ofthe senators from the State of Indiana. Mr. Whitcomb had, during the Inst twelve months, suffered from severe indisposition, which disabled him from giving his usually zeulous and efficient attention to business. He was a gentleman of great and varied attainments, a profound lawyer, a ripe cholar, a wise and honest statesman. He had held many ofiices of honor and trust under the State nd general governments. He had been governor of Indiana, Commissioner of the General Land Office, and at the time of his death was a member of the United States Senate. It will be remembered that in 1841 General Harrison carried, the State ol Indiana by an overwhelming majority. Mr. Whitcomb was then in this city at the head of the General Land Office, and soon after ihe installation of the whig administration he was removed from office at the bidding of the inexorable Ewing. The democrats of Indiana hailed his return lo the State with joy, and immediately selected him as their champion in the gubernatorial contest which was then coming on. The odds were greatly against him. Bigger, the whig governor ofthe State, and the whig candidate for re-election, had at the preceding election triumphed over ihe popular and eloquent Howard by some eight or ten thousand majority. The democrats considered the contest hopeless, and the whigs derided Whitcomb's presumption in suffering his name to be used as a candidate boldly asserting that he would be beuten by more than twehty thousand majority. Whitcomb was nothing daunted, but entered the contest with cheerfulness, resolved to do his whole duty to his country. He visited every county in the State, made more than one hundred speeches, and, to the astonishment of friends aud opponents, planted the democratic banner in triumph on the Stale Capitol. The State was thoroughly revolutionized, and lrom that day to the present has been unfaltering in her support of democratic measures and men.

Senator Whitcomb was well acquainted with General Pierce and Colonel King, the standardbearers of democracy in the contest now going on and the last public political letter he ever wrote was addressed to the committee of the Tammany Society, ou the occasion of their celebration of the re-union ofthe democracy ofthe State ofNew York, in favor of Pierce and King. The Setter will be read at this time wiih interest:

WASHINGTON CITY, June 25,18»2.

GEJJTLKMEM 1 most cincerely thank you for your kind invitation to participate in the festivities with which the Tammany Society propose celebrating the approaching anniversary of our national independence. Nothing could afford me more pleasure than to be present on an occasioo which promises the gratfying entertainment to every true democratic heart of beholding the noble »ons of St. Tain many smoking the calumet of reconciliation—a sure augury of a triumph to tbe great republican party, which has never been defeated but by ditsenaions

in its own ranka. The standard-bearer* chosen to lead us to victory in tbe approaching contest are worthy of ihe high'lionor that has been conferred upon them by the urfited democracy of the whole country. Franklin Pierce and WtHiam R. King are men whose characters defy the strictest scrutiny. No blot will be found on their moral reptutations, no inconsistency in their advocvacy and support of democratic principles, no want of devotion to their country in all situation* and under every emergency, and no equivocation or evasion in the enunciation of their opinion* upon questions of public policy.

But, gentlemen, 1 am an invalid, and regret that I cannot be with you. I therefore respectfully request thai you will propose in my name, to our brother democrat* who an ay be assembled on the occasion, the following sentiment:

The Union of the Democratic Party and tbe Union of the State*: With this motto inscribed upon our banner and cherished in oar heart* we go forth lo battle and what democrat so craven-hean-de as lo doubt of victory 1 am, very respectfully, your

AS. WHITCOMB.

TO THE PEOPLE OP INDIANA. The State Central Committee of Indiana congratulate their Democratic brethren of all parts of the State, upon the unprecedented and brilliant victory so gloriously achieved at the State election held on Tuesday the ISth October inst.

Never has such a sweeping and decisive result crowned the efforts of the Democracy of Indiana at any previous election. Never has the banner of Democracy been borne so gallantly as in ihe recent contest. The whole- State has risen in her might and with a most unanimous decision declared that she will not permit the Whig party to rule or to govern her in the great Legislative, Judicial, or Executive departments. You have also emphatically decjded in the ten out of the eleven Congressional' Districts, that in the councils of the nation, Indiana must be represented by good and true Democrats, in these selections you have chosen men of sterling integrity, of talents, and of reliable democratic principles—men who are true to the State, to the people and to the Union: who will nobly and honestly sustain a Democratic Administration ofthe national government, and zeal-, ously Hfibor for the glory and welfare of ihe whole people, and our common country. The political character of our General Assembly is such as to give full assurance that a deserving Democrat will be returned as Senator of the United States in the place of the lamented "Whitcomb. "This result is not only gratifying to us, and to yourselves, but il is hailed with joy and exultation throughout the States of this great confederacy as a prestige of complete victory in the approach* ing Presidential election.

Indiana has fulfilled the expectations of her Democratio friends in the other Stales of this mighty Republic. Her Delegates to the Baltimore Convention had pledged her as a true and reliable Democratic State. Her orators, her statesmen, and her citizens have given pledges of her fealty lo principle, of adherence to her faith, and the readiness and ability of the people to carry the State for Pierce and King.

Whiggery lies prostrate and defeated in Indiana. Her vain boastings have doubly overwhelmed her. Her prophets and her wise-men are astounded and have no valid excuse to offer. Tho

Every artifice, every de*rgn, and every strala-

sense and unflinching integritv has enabled ihem to

,. ..

le repast of pleasure and of triumph.

our numbers.

From the Washington ITuion.

On Tuesday, the 2d day of November next, the

lie lias every inducement, every encouragement

10 di Ills duty.

Although wo have so signally defeated our op-

ponenls, they stUI cherish their hostility to our men

our

principles,

some of their leaders nsserled that we cannot main-|

tain our strength. Already have they hurled defi ance in our teeelh, nnd said they will overwhelm us in November with shame and defeat. Shall this be true, or shall we again and forever crush their now broken ranks and routed forces? Let every man consider himself a committee of vigilance, and see that no fraud or deception be practiced upon himself or upon his neighbor. Let every voter be brought to tho polls, and let vigilance and caro be the watch-words. Our proud old Democratic standard has been borne aloft triumphantly through the Slate contest, and now waves over us gloriously. Who will be so base and recrcant as to permit that standard to be fcrested from us and to trail in the dust beneath the tread of Whiggery?

Our sister States are gladdened by our noble deeds. Indiana lakes the lead. She is the vanguard of Democracy in the Union. Iler sister, Ohio, has done nobly, and will try lo swell her numbers to equal our majority. YVhilst we will roll up our 20,000 or 25.000 majority, Ohio sends forth from 15,000 to 20,000 and that noble old Keystone State, Pennsylvania, has gallantly spread out her roll with about an equal majority with Ohio. Maryland, ever glorious Maryland, gives token of her Democratic strength and spirit. Connecticut, by her late elections, promises a full Democratio victory and every sign from almost every State proclaims the almost total annihilation of the Whig party. Indiana bids fair to be the banner State. All thai is wanting is, that no Democrat shall be found asleep on his post. Only a few days and the tale will be iold, and that tale will be the deathknell of Whiggery. Where is the man who will stay at home when so much is at stake?

Brethren, Indiana has covered herself with a mantle of richest glory, and her sons are proud of her name, lierstaudard bearers have nobly led her on. The center of the enemy has been broken, and his flanks are turned, his forces are scattered and beaten, but we must press on to complete the victory.

The price of liberty is eternal vigilance. He is not a good citizen who refuse^lo vote his principles.

HAL* AFTER SCOTT WITS A SHAM STIC* Cincinnati Enquirer say*: Two of the candidate* for the Presidency are stumping it in Obio—Gen. Scott and Senator Hale. It i* admitted that Hale is the best speaker, and, so far, has drawn the largest crowd*. It will be recollected that Maj. Polk while at Washington, made abet that Hale would receive more electoral vote* than Scott. It is a sort of *nip and tuck' race between tbem. Which of them will make the most by stumping Ohio, we eannot say. Scott is evidently determined Hale shan't get ahead of him. How they will get akmg at ibis point will be duly reported in tbe Enquirer. Hale will speak here on Saturday. Scott some time next week.

How disgusting and shameful!! Contrast this course with Washington, Jaoksoc, and tbe other great men.
