'..sl 50 FISIIER & SON Fon SPRING & SUMMER WIL MAX LEWIS, VOL, X VI, I,ltrtititat,te One Point Settled Our readers well know that the whole elec toral vote of the non-slaveholding States is 183, and that the entire electoral college numbers 303 votes. Mr. Lincoln will not be a candidate in the slave holding States, and must rely for an election upon obtaining 152 of the 183 votes of the non-slaveholding States. Pennsylvania has 27, Ohio 23, New York 35, Indiana 13, Illinois 11, Wisconsin 5, New Jersey 7, California 4, lowa 4, Rhode Island 4, Connecticut 6, and New Hampshire 5. In all these States Mr. Lincoln will have an opposition excited by the most sanguine hopes and certainties of success. California and Oregon, it is conceded, will vote against him. This reduces his chances to 176 votes; the loss of Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, Will defeat him ; the loss of Illinois, Indiana, and New Hampshire will defeat him ; the loss of Ohio and other Northern State will defat him. His chances, therefore, under all circumstances, have been from the first of the most desperate character—chances that the slighest force of combination would forever destroy. But, for the satisfaction of our readers and of the public generally, we can say that to make assurance doubly sure, and to place the result beyond all contingency, there have been, and are now, arrangements making which will give the vote of New York against Mr. Lincoln. That result will be accom plished beyond all question ; the vote of that State will never be cast for Mr. Lincoln.— New York will not only vote against him, but will give a majority of sixty thousand against him. His election, is, therefore, an ascertained impossibility. The failure to re ceive the thirty-five votes of that State, will exclude the possibility of his election ; he has no other State to fall back upon to make good the deficiency. When we say that the vote of New York will not be given for Lin coln, we do not speak unadvisedly. We speak confidently, and upon full assurance that what we say has been resolved upon firmly and immovably. Now, as Lincoln's election is an ascertained impossibility, we have to ask the people of the North-west whether they will throw away their votes for a man who cannot be elected, and thereby run the risk of electing the South ern Disunion ticket? Which do they prefer —the slave-code and slave trade candidates or the man who for three years has successfully encountered, and has beaten back, the slave codeites ; who has stripped them of the mask under which they had hidden disunion, and compelled them to avow their purpose to pre cipitate the cotton States into a revolution, having for its object the dismemberment of the Union ? It is true that the Republican leaders and the Breckinridge party have a common plat form—or, as is so clearly expressed by the Lovejoy Convention resolutions, are engaged in "a common cause," viz : the establishment of a power by Congress to regulate, govern, establish or prohibit slavery in the Territo ries. Lovejoy understands clearly and dis tinctly that he and Breckinridge maintain the same doctrine—with this difference, that while Lovejny desires agitation to continue as the only political capital in which men of his stamp can deal, the Yanceyites, expecting to be defeated, intend to use that defeat to precipitate the cotton States into a revolution which will end in a dissolution of the Union. But have the people of the North any such interest in the personal success of Lovejoy and Giddings, and men of that class, as can induce them to hazard the peace and harmo ny of the country, or its welfare and general prosperity, by standing silent in such a con test as is now presented, and allowing the chosen candidate of the Disunionists to be elected? Will the North—that North which has been appealed to so often by the imprac ticable factionists whose most memorable act for "freedom" was the treasonable invasion of Virginia, and the bloody sacrifice of some thirty lives at Harper's Ferry 2—will that North now, by casting its vote for Lincoln, whose election is an ascertained impossibili ty, throw the whole power of the Federal Government into the bands of the disunion ists ? Shall Yancey be the ruler of this Union ? We say Yancy, for all men know that he is the power of his party, and that vain Breckinridge and silly old Lane are mere puppets in his hands. At the South—in every Southern State the people are listening with earnest atten tion and honest intentions to the appeals of the gallant men who have taken the - field against disunion and its horrors. But the people of the South have so long been accus tomed to hear that Giddings and Farnsworth, and Lovejoy and Sumner, are the true rep repsentatives of Northern sentiment, that the advocates of the Union and the Constitution have difficulty in explaining that the two and a half millions of voters at the North are not Abolitionists, but are men of loyal and Union loving principles. We have no fears of the result at the South. In 1832, the people of the South re sponded to the national roll-call, and sus tained the old veteran who declared that the Union must be preserved. In 1850, the bat tle was fought again, and again, in every State of the South, was the cause of the Union sustained. So it will be in 1860. But the South has not the numerical strength to elect a President. It lacks a large vote to make up a majority of the electoral college. As Lincoln cannot by any possibility be elec ted, we ask the people of the North, and par ticularly of the North-west, whether they aro willing to give indirectly to the disunion ists that power which the South itself will indignantly deny to them ? As Lincoln cannot be elected, every vote thrown away upon him is indirectly a vote for Breckinridge. It is a vote to carry the elec tion into Congress, where it may ultimately result in the election of the incompetent and demoralized Joe Lane. We repeat, that we speak from well ma tured information, when we say that Lincoln cannot, under any circumstances, obtain the electoral vote of New York. His defeat then ) .4.

The Fourth of July in London---Speech [From the London Times, July sth.] The eighty-fourth anniversary of the dec laration of American Independence was cele brated last night by a dinner in the London Tavern. The company consisted mainly of the members of the American Association in London. General Campbell occupied the chair, and was supported, right and left, by Mr. Dallas, the American Minister, Messrs. Dallas and Moran, Secretaries of Legation, Mr. Layard, Dr. Macgowan, Dr. Mackay, Mr. Croskey, and others. The room was tastefully decorated with the national flags of England and America, and one of the most conspicuous objects was a full length portrait of Her Majesty, from Buck ingham Palace. Among the earlier toasts were "The President of the United States" and "The Queen," which were received with great enthusiasth. In proposing the latter, the Chairman stated that an application had been made to the Queen to allow her portrait to be taken by an American artist, and that a reply had been received to the effect that, while Her Majesty highly appreciated the sentiments which dictated the wish, she fear ed the full occupation of her time would not admit her giving sitting for an original por trait, she would be happy to afford every fa cility for a copy being taken of any portrait that might be considered most eligible. The toast of the evening, "The Day we Cel ebrate," was proposed by the Chairman in a brief speech. Mr. Dallas, in responding to it, said he could not but feel that all present were perfectly aware of the peculiar and uni versal respect with which the anniversary of American independence was treated by his fellow-countrymen in the United States.— They likewise knew, and justly appreciated, the wisdom and courage, the noble principles of Government, and the devoted patriotism inseparably associated with its remembrance. No one required to be told what significance attached to the 4th of July. The hallowed birthday of a great nation, it was held and accepted as an epoch signally illustrated by human virtues, and lastingly auspicious to mankind. He might gratify them by dwelling, in de tail, as he had often done before, upon the en nobling characteristics of those early heroic days. Even in this capital, none would lis ten with reluctance to the mention of such names as Washington, Franklin, Jefferson and Madison, to the description of famous fields of fight, such as Bunker's Hill, Sarato ga, and Yorktown, or to the majestic deliber ations of councils such as the Continental Congress presided over by Hancock. To an American ear at least the music of that swell ing theme never had lost, and never would lose, its attractions. lie abstained, however, and, mindful of the limits of a proper reserve, he would only add that the firmness with which they eulogized their revolutionary sires was never ungenerous or exclusive, but would be as warmly manifested wherever and when ever similar excellence was exhibited. On the Fourth of July especially the hearts of his countrymen expanded to embrace the greatness and magnanimity shown in any land or by any race. At the present moment, in a somewhat distant island, a spontaneous and popular insurrection against alleged op pression cruelly prolonged awakened wide spread sympathy. He forebore a single com ment upon the merits, but if there could be found among the champions of Sicilian rights and liberties a wise, disinterested, just and brave deliverer, they should hasten to connect the heroism of the present hour with the he roism they were commemorating. Mr. Layard responded to the toast of "Na tional Independence, the pathway to individ ual liberty and happiness." He referred to the struggle now going on in Italy, and ex pressed his belief that if the principle of non intervention were carried out, the Italian peo ple would soon be ranked among the free and independent nations of the world. Various other toasts appropriate to the occasion were prop osed during the course of the evening, and very cordially responded to by the com pany. Mr. Higgs officiated as toast master, and the band of the City Rifles enlivened the proceedings by playing some of the most pop ular airs of the day. THE OLDEST INHABITANT.—There resides at Rising Sun, Indiana, the oldest man prob ably in the United States. The name of this venerable personage is Solomon Pangborn, who says he was born in the city of New York, in a small town of five or six hundred houses, in 1725. He is consequently 135 years old. Shortly after his birth his father purchased a farm on the Mohawk river, not far from Fort Johnson, whither he re moved. The old gentleman resides with rel atives who are in comfortable circumstances. He complains that for the last year or two his health has been much impaired, and that he is so old medicine fails to improve his con dition, as it might in a, younger person. AVOLCANO IN POLK COUNTY, WISCONSIN.- One of the strangest phenomena in nature has recently developed itself near the Horse Lake, Polk county, Wisconsin. Flames of fire came up through the earth in several lo calities, and one man's barn has been burned down by it. Strange to say, the fire can only be seen in the day time, the earth in the eve ning bearing a close resemblance to phospho rus. The air smells as if impregnated with sulphur. The most remarkable feature in the case is the fact that all woollen articles in houses located near by take fire, although there is nothing visible to ignite them. Our readers will very likely think this a hoax, but we have the words of several citizens of Polk county for authority.— Chicago Journal. HUNTINGDON, PA., AUGUST 1, 1860. of Mr. Dallas -PERSEVE RE.- A Voice from the South ! KEEP IT BEFORE TEE PLOi'LE The Corrinth (Miss.,) True Democrat, ono of the ablest and most influential of the Dem ocratic journals published in the extreme South, says that Judge Douglas stands to-day upon the platform maintained by the Democ racy for twelve years, non-intervention by Congress with Slavery, in States, Territories and the District of Columbia ; and which has just been re-affirmed by over two-thirds of the party in national council. _Keep it before the people, That the friends and supporters of the Baltimore nominees were willing to accept the principle of non intervention as embraced in Vice President Breckinridge's former speeches, the letter of acceptance of James Buchanan, the Alabama ultimatum, in '56, or any other authoritative exposition of Democratic doctrine of that day —allowing their own construction—but the disruptionists refused ; determined to break up the party if possible, thereby hastening a speedy dissolution of the Union. Keep it before the people, That William L. Yancey, an avowed revolutionists, lead the van in the secession from the Charleston Con vention. Keep it befor ethe people, That John C. Breck inridge and Jo. Lane are the nominees of a faction of the Democracy, and that faction deeply dyed in disunion—aiming at the es tablishment of a Southern and Pacific Empire or Republic. Keep it before the people, That the seceders who now oppose the national nominees are the old advocates and defenders of their prin ciples. Keep it before the people, That the only hope of defeating Abe Lincoln is to vote for Doug las and Johnson at the next November elec tion. Keep it before the people, That Judge Doug las stands to-day pledged to the same princi ples that he advocated in 1856, when the South demanded his nomination. - Keep it before the people, That THE PEO PLE, in opposition to politicians, the power and the patronage of the government and the jealousy of aspiring and scheming politicians, have placed Stephen A. Douglas and Herschel V. Johnson, as their standard bearers in the great campaign of 1860, for the sure main tenance of the Union, the Constitution and the equal rights of all sections. Keep it before the people, That the National Democracy have proven themselves, from the very foundation of the government, capable of rightly guiding the helm of State, and of insuring the greatest amount of individual and national prosperity to a republican people. And keep it before the people, That now, as heretofore, the Democracy of the Union, place their trust in the intelligence, the patriotism and the discriminating justice of the Ameri can people—and with the inscription upon their banner of " Popular government" await the decision of their chosen umpire. Buchanan on the Stump !---Great Sere nade Speech! At the Yancey, Breckinridge and Office Holders' fandango in Washington, the Presi dent is reported as having delivered the fol lowing address : " FELLOW Omen HOLDERS have lived to be nearly seventy years of age. I was ad mitted into the Democratic party just before I became forty. All my previous life had been spent in trying to destroy it. I hated it with the intensity of a natural aristocrat, and as I mounted to one high position after another by the aid of the voters of that party, I was resolved to give it the final blow.— Therefore it is that I cordially greet you this evening. In your standard bearer I recog nize a man whom I have always detested, while I supposed him to be my rival, and whom I now only love because he has con sented to be my tool in the great work of de stroying the only national party. I tell those of you who are listening to me, and who hold office under me, that if you do not assist me in this delightful occupation, you shall be summarily dismissed, and now, my friends and followers, my servants and subordinates, good night. You will proceed hence to be addressed by my Secretary of the Treasury, Howell Cobb, of Georgia, by my beloved friend, Colonel Florence, of Pennsylvania, by my Secretary of the Interior, Jacob Thomp son, of Mississippi, by my District Attorney, Mr. Black, and by all others who believe that " it will be a great deal better to elect Abra ham Lincoln than Stephen A. Douglas."— (Great sensation.) PUNISHMENT OF A CRUEL FATHER—He is Taken in Hand by a Vigilance Conimitlee.— It will be remembered that some time since we published a notice that a citizen of the Fourth Ward was in the habit of maltreating his family, and beating one of his children, to whom he seemed to have an especial dislike, so that the screams of the little sufferer could be heard throughout the entire neighborhood, leaving the marks of the horsewhip he used upon the body, so that they were visible for several days afterwards. He was - waited upon a number of times by those living near, and remonstrated with for his cruelty. He promised everything but when in a ill humor would abuse his family, knock the child down, and beat it until sense less. Forbearance having ceased to be a vir tue, a committee waited upon him in the even ing, about 10 o'clock, after ho had retired, and requested him to dress himself and step outside, as some important business was to be transacted. Suspecting nothing he came out, was immediately seized, gagged, thrown upon the ground, his clothes stripped from his per son, and a stout man, with a leather strap, gave him a taste of the punishment ho had been so ready to inflict upon his child. A physician was in the party, who felt the pulse of the brute, and allowed the execution er to lay on as long as he thought it could be borne without endangering the life of tho prisoner. After lie bad received a just re ward for his cruelty he was liberated, and informed that if ho did not wish to have a repetition of the punishment the sooner he left the city the better for him. Acting upon the suggestion ho left the next morning, and has not since been heard from. The leaders for the Breckinridge and Lane movement, in spite of the strong testimony against them deny that their ulterior objects are disunion. Of course they dare not avow this openly in the free States, for they would not have a corporal's guard of followers under such a flag. But that such is their own rec ord makes out the case against them. Listen to the testimony. Yancey, their great leader, said in his speech at Baltimore, before the seceders convention : " HE BEGGED THEM TO ACCEPT THESE CON GRATULATIONS AT THE HANDS OF A MAN WHO HAD SOME REPUTATION AS A FACTIONIST AND A DISUNIONIST. HE WAS NEITHER FOR THE UNION NOR AGAIST IT." The Camden (Alabama) Register, in hoist ing the name of Brooktriridge and Lane, gives its reasons thus frankly for so doing : "We run up our flag to-day for Breckin ridge and Lane, the Democratic nominees for President and Vice President of the United States. We have unwaveringly contended for the last ten years that it would be better (for all concerned,) to make two or more dis tinct governments of the Territory comprising the United States of America—and that such will ultimately be done, there can be no sort of doubt ; but it should be done with fairness and justice to every section of the Union, and believing that the party to which we belong is the only reliable one to carry out this 'measure, and secure to our own section all her rights —we intend to battle for its principles to the fullest extent of our ability." A southern correspondent of the Richmond Enquirer, who supports the seceders' ticket, says: "I think the time has fully come for us to set up for ourselves, to claim and bold our part of the public domain, and to be forever rid of the North, who have been continually enriching themselves out of our hard earn ings. What though there be civil war and bloodshed? If the North do not abandon their fanatical oppression upon us, all union must cease between the two sections, and I choose it should cease now, while I - hope to be able to bear some humble part in it, than be delayed for my grandchildren. I there fore declare most fully and frankly that I am heartily in support of theßrecls:inridge ticket." In addition to the above, listen to the trea sonable sentiments of the following leading men belonging to the Breckinridge party we copy from the Selma (Alabama) Sentinel, who thus daguerreotypes the bolters, viz : What are they after?—No one can be deci ded as to what aro the objects of the Charles ton Convention Bolters. Listen to what their men say: " I want the Cotton States precipitated into a revolution."— W. L. Yancey. " If I had the power, I would dissolve this government."—T. T. Morgan. " Let us break up this rotten, sinking and oppressive government in ten minutes."— Geo. Gayle. "Resistance! Resistance !Ito death against the government is what we want now."— David flubbard. " Break up and dissolve this rotten Yankee government."—John D. F. Williams. "Let the Union rip."—.R. D. Gayle. With this evidence before our eyes, can we disbelieve that the objects of the seceders are Disunion and Civil War? The Democrats of Huntingdon County are asked to vote this ticket! Will they do it? YANCEY'S SCHEME OF DISIINTON.—Mr. Yan cey, the father of the present Breckinridge and Lane party, long ago laid down his plan of dissolving this Union. He did not at the time he committed his programme to paper intend that it should be made public, but a providence which has watched over the small and great events of this nation, determined otherwise. Mr. Yancey sat down one day and wrote a private letter to a friend in which he sat forth a well studied plan of treason against the constitution of the United States. That sacred instrument he determined should no longer receive either his love or his favor, and he therefore coolly lays a mine beneath its foundations intending at the first favorable opportunity to blow our entire political system into atoms. His plan of dissolution was for the cotton states to step out of the Union snd then proclaim a southern confederacy. His directions then were, that Missouri, Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and North Carolina were all, for a time, to stay in the Union and to play the part of care-takers of the aforesaid cotton states against the en croachments of the free states, and that-after the southern confederacy got fairly on its legs, it was then to begin to take in the cordon of semi-slave states until they were all absorbed and possibly one or two of the Middle states. Mr. Yancey forgot one thing in this very pret ty scheme of treason, and that was this—that he and his few deluded followers would be dangling at the end of a rope before his south ern confederacy was a month old. Mr. Yan cey will work energetically for the Breckin ridge and Lane party to aid him in carrying out his plans no doubt, but they will not come within half a million of votes of being elected and yet the Union will still be preserved.— West Chester Democrat. VICTIMIZED EY GIPSIES.—The coffers of a bachelor named Weaker, in Lehigh county, were recently relieved of $9O by a couple of gipsies. The old chap, it seems, was suffer ing from sickness when the gipsies hearing of it called at the house and prescribed for him, at the same time telling him that to make his cure sure with the remedy they pro posed he must, while under their treatment, deposit one hundred dollars under a stone in a certain place, and that the money must remain there for a certain time, at the end of which lie would bo restored to health. The money was forked over, placed under the stone, and very soon pocketed by the canning gipsies, who made tracks as soon as they had their prize, leaving the old man to lament the loss of his money, as well as his health. They wore pursued, captured, and lodged in the Allentown jail to await trial. Editor and Proprietor. Are They for Disunion ? Strange things have come to pass since men calling themselves Democrats' have un dertaken to make war on the usages and in tegrity of the Democratic party.- We have seen what no one could have believed possi ble six months ago. We have seen a fac tious minority of some 85-votes of three hun dred and four in a National Convention, se cede, because they could not rule the large majority of delegates., We have seen these 85 votes unite with some 34 individuals, claiming to represent some 17 electoral votes in the National Convention, to which they had not been admitted because they were not properly elected, and were not identified with the organization of the party, but had only claimed their seats for mischief, while they were destined and accredited for a hostile convention at Richmond. We have seen these 85 seceding votes thus united with out siders claiming to represent States whose faithful and orthodox representatives wore duly admitted into the National Convention, and remained, discharging their high and pa triotic duty, go together into the Maryland Institute, and attempt to institute a false and counterfeit Democratic party, arrogating to themselves the title of the National Democ racy. We have seen this cabal of disorgan izers, composed of not one-third clf the sece ding votes of the National Democratic Con vention, meet together, with a few outsiders, and declare not only that they were the Na tional Democratic Convention, but that two thirds of the votes of that Convention should nominate candidates for President and Vice President, thus authorizing two thirds of the 85 seceding votes, with two-thirds of some 34 other individuals claiming to represent 17 full votes, to make nominations, thereby demon strating how insincere and inconsistent these seceders were when they and their friends at Charleston required that "the two-thirds rule should he so constructed" as to require for a nomination two-thirds of the whole electoral vote of the Union, that is to say, requiring for a nomination 204 electoral votes. We have seen Breckinridge and Lane thus ille gally nominated by less than one-third of the votes admitted into the National Convention, and in the absence of all pretence that their entire Bogus Convention, made up as it was, could cast even an approximation,to a major ity of the electoral votes. We have seen this Bogus Institute Convention, backed by Fed eral office-holders, from the traitorous Presi dent down, declare that their nominees were the National Democratic nominees, and should be hailed and sppported as such, while Dsuglas and Johnson were but the nominee? of a Douglas faction. NO. 6. It is plain that men who can act in• this manner, even with the sanction of an imbe cile and vindictive octogenarian of a Presi dent, are no true Democrats, and the party will at least be purified in the future, and made more worthy of success and public con= fidence, after these temporary disasters shall have passed away. —B al timore (11f4rliland) Dispatch.
