. - - non: 4ositili Randal/Ye Speocli BESOILE_ TILE DEMOCII,A.IIIC STATE CONVENTION. EIMII-AT CLIAVIES'SBUEG, AUG. 6th, 1866. In obedience' to - the fleet of the Democratic State Convention of Pennsylvania, I claim the attention of my fellow citizens for a short time. lam aware that I have received this courtesy because I have heretofore been a member of the Old Line Whig party. In 1824-5, the. Democratic and Whig.parties were sepaia tad by no question of principle, but were divided upon the question, whether Gen. Janssen' was entitled VI be elected President of the United States. In the progress of time, during the thirty yearn of the existenceof the-Whigpiwty, several importantlubaciples were prettenteilostid thetwo parties became distinct and independentrif eactiother - uPon questiqns of public piney:, These were: • • 1. The renewal of the charter of the Bank of the United States. - 2. The thttOkeesury. 3. The attribution of the Proceeds of the: Public Lauds 4. The Taritt . . A "Naticond Bank" was abandoned by the Democratic par Whig partty, node the 1844. veto of Gen. JullSoS ha 1832, and by the y,ln "The Bub-Treasury," the cardinal measure of Mr. Van Buren, wee opposed by the NVldgparty, has fought itself Into public farm and no one now wishes to disturb It. "The Distribution of the Proceeds of the Public Lands" rhea been Superceded" by the debt created by the Mexican • • "The Tariff" no longer remains either a politicil or geo graphical question ;:the last Congress exhibited the specta cle of the "Mate Rights ° men of the Southland the Repub. dean Abolitionists of the North, united againstrennsylva nia, without ditdinctietiof party, to reduce the tariff Mow Its present Standard. If there remains any practical disputable principle, which constituted an Issue between the Democratic and the old Whig parties, I do not know It. The 'Whig parry has performed its duty, and has had its day. It has. been prostrated by the organization of the American patty, or the Know .Nothing order. They and not the Old Line Whigs have been the ILrecutioners. They have renounced their old CoglipMen, laid aside their old principles, and substituted in their place a new name and a new creed never heretofore recognized by Clay, Webster, Sergeant, or their noble compeers. I know there are many intelligent and patriotic men who cherish the hope that the Whig party can again be resus citated, but the hope .is - delusive, and it is pernicious be. cause it deprives the country of a large portion of intellect and worth, which ought to be brought into . public service. in the history of our Republic, no party broken down has ever yet been re-organized. The fate of the Federal and Anti-Masonic parties establishes tills fact. There is not at this time a Whig member of • the popular branch of Con , grass elected by a Wbig vote. There is not a member of the Legislature of Pennsylvania elected by a Whig vote.— There is not a member of the Councils of the City of Phila delphia erected by a Whig vote. For the last two years, • with but two exceptions, wherever the scattered members of the Whig party have met in council, they have felt their position, and have, therefore, wisely abstained from form ing a ticket to be voted for at the polls. In New !letup shire and Massachusetts they rallied at the polls, and the result was paucity of numbers and total defeat. But, I ask, what good would be derived from the re-organization dud triumph of the Old Whig party? They du not want a National Bank. They do not desire the repeal of the dub Tr.sury. The most ardent friends of the Tariff de uut ask for the re-establishment of the High Tariff of USA or even of 1e4.2; but all they ask is, that the l'ariff ,shall cloud where it was placed 1u1846 by the casting vote or , the st'ice President, Mr. Dallas. All the old issues have beau settled, and as a natural consequence, new parties hs.Ve sprung up, and new Issues have been formed. The Urger of Knew-Nothings have vioLsted the letter and spirit ut the V I Article of the Constitution of the-United States, which il.lares that :VP religions test shall ever Gem/aired CU a qillLiffiCatiQn to any Quite of Piddle Trust under the United States;" they have established secret societies, se • .iret oaths and obligations. With these principles the Whig party iu its days of power and numerical strength, had no sympathy nor affiliation, and there in no part of .the Union where the Whigs were mere indexible in op. pobiug cheep here Niel than in the State of Poun 03 tv.enia. lu 1845, whet/ the Whig party met to the City of Phila. dolphin, after the defeat of Mr. Clay, the duty of tipeuiug the' meeting and setting forth their principles wan com mitted to me. 1 Ifeld in my hand at the meeting, the etiaitter of Rhode Island, granted to Roger which contains the broadesi and must comprehensive diadmatiou of religious LIDERTY AND EQUALITT ever yet pea niftl. 1 rend its eloquent mid energetic platform and said, (Us to THE DOCTllloa.ttr. Tan Wlllit Pantry," and pointing to the ruins uf the Itoman.Cathulic church °lSt. Augustine, burnt during the disgraceful riots of 1844, and which lay within a few yards of theplace olumeting, I added, "niter is lie essEcitarioN.",There is nut a nook or curator iu this vast region of country .ivhich zioe contain Old Line Whigs wto are willing to stand by the Constitution and the Uni- I on. But their numerical striingth Is far exceeded by their patriotism, talents, and public spirit. This is the body to hieh I have been attached, and 1 leel the deepest interest ni the course they shall pursue. The ltepu'blieoo party is eeetittattl, and its hlleedSH 0,251, iu my judgment, lead to a severance of the Union. 1 du net ,believe that the great mass of that party anticipate this result; but if it should be consummated, their regret will lie no equivalent for the damning injury thereby in dicted upon this great Republic. 1 appeal to every old Line Whig in the Union to Overt this calamity. The south, cannot and will not remain in the Union, unless their rights are guaranteed to them. if we were in the-same situation, wu would demand our rights in toms us imper ative and mandatory as those which are note used by our .tioutherll brethren. how is this great evil to be avoided? I answer' by the election of Mr. Buchanan. Every vote given to him is a check to the progress of the Republican party. 1 know there are many Whigs who approve of the administration ut Millard Fillmore, and are willing to trust him again.— Every vote given to Mr. Fillmore increases the danger of She success Of Mr. Fremont. Every Vote given to Mr. Be. rhunau potentially orals the fate of Sir. Fremont. But Millard Fillmore in 1840, 'su, and '52, is not the Millard Fillmore of 1050. When he was elected Vice President in I`i4S,—witen he bel:auie the Acting President iu and when lie warn candidate for renomination by the Whig Convention in Baltimore, in 1052, he professed tv be it Whig—nailing More, Ituthittg lees. The Native Awed .' eau part, at that time was in existence and proclaimed principles in terms far less eiceptionable than those now avowed by the Know-Nothing party. But Ste. Fillmore then had neither part nor lot with them, he stood upon the ground occupied by Clay, Webster, and Sergeant. What 4 he nowt Ile has bet% initiated into the Order of Know- Nothings, taken upon himself its secret oaths and obliga tions; and this at a time when his friends were p'resenting LOS claims to be elected President of the United States.— Ile boo since become the candidate and accepted the nom ination of the American or Kuow-Nothing National Con vention. In a correspondence between the Order of United Americans of the State of New York anil hint, under the date of July 25th, 1858, they say— Both fruit" your past official acts, add from the aosun mice' and views expressed By you ou many occasions, us having similar sentimentsin reference to these subjects, no those held by the Americans, and to them of such seeming importance, the successful establishment of these princi ples, as the fundamental Rules of our Government, they believe essential for Ito tranquility, and a continued pro gress In the development of all its greatness." Mr. Fillmore, in his answer, dated Lint of July, acnies ..es in this statement and replies— • - "My position before the country is well known, admit 'dng neither of. disguise nor equivocation. Ipm the can didate of the American party." Mr. Fillmore here proclaims himself the American candi date, and adopts the creed, oaths and obligations of that party without "disguise or equivocation." In the' Secret ' Lodge of the Order of Know-Nothings he has sworn that he will neither vote for nor appoint a Roman Catholic to shies. if elected and inaugurated President of the United States, he wonld be compelled to swear that he would re quire .no religious test as a qualification to any Office of Public Trust under the United States." I ask, under such circumstances, which oath would he keep, and which oath would he - violate 1 Are the Old Line Whigs prepared to endorse Mr. Fillmore, thus presented for their suffrages by himself) Lknow no difference between an individual join . - Ing the Order and giving hie vote to sustain its candidates, except that the latter course is more effective in carrying out the tenets of this party. The friends of Mr. Fillmore have assailed Mr. Buchanan for his Ostend communication without admitting or denying the acciddneas of the doctrine therein contained. I would remark that the correspondence of Mr. Everett, as Secreta ry of State under Mr. Elliman', after -the death of Mr. Web ster, relative to Cuba, is more offensive, and ought to be . more obnazions..to the criticism of conservative men than the Ostend Letter; and it should be remembeted that the diplomatic manifesto of Mr. Everett was issued under the • immediate supervision of Mr. Fillmore and his Cabinet. Mr. Everett Is probably the best educated ' Statesman now livlng, he is an erudite scholar and a sound patriot. When In Congress, he took higher ground in favor of the South on the subject of slavery, than any Northern Statesman had eve' done before, or has ever done since. One thing is certain, any opinion uponlnternatlonalLawpromulgated by him, is entitled to respect. Mr. Buchanan has been in public life upwards of forty years, he has filled the highest offices which his own State could. confer upon him. lie ha.sioccupled the highest seat in the Cabinet during a most eventful epoch; and he has twice represented his country at the courts of the two first Nations in Europe. Ills pri vate character stands without. blot or blemish, and beyond rebuke or reproach; and it is a high eulogium upon his .public life, that the " Ostend Letter" is the only act which is designated by his opponents as the ground of attack. There are many Old Line Whigs who are attached. to their cognomen, and dislike changing is au over scrupulous nicety. They must change th name—they must recognize the title of an American, ii."dow Nothing, Republican or Democrat. If they refuse to select either of these names, they must retire from all participation in public affairs. Gov. Seward Is reported to have said during the present session of Congress, in caucus, that he cared nothing for names, but that he looked to principles alone. The remark showed that be had a clear head and a sound judgment, and was worthy of a better cause. Time will not permit me to discuss at length, the ques tion of the Teiritories. I hold that the Territory ceded us by. Mexico was purchased by common treasure. The fifteen Slave States contributed their portion of the fund as did th then fifteen Free States. Territory should stand on the same footing as admitted States, and the right of the peo ple to hold slaves or not, as they please, in the Territory ought to be commensurate with the rights of the people as they exist In the thirty one States. The will of a majority. prevails in the cases laskenumerated, and the same ortho dox principle should prevail in the newly acquired Terri,: ----- • I tory. \ What is the doctrine of the Wilmot proviso? It is the sixteen free States declaring to the fifteen slave .States— •.. yen are part owners of this Territory; you have shed your blood and expended your treasure in acquiring it, but you-shall have no share in its enjoyment or profits. Strip it of its trappings, and it amounts to this : there are thirty - - one stockholders in a corporation, - and sixteen say to fifteen, M is true you are part owners and have contributed to the purchase of our common property, lint you shall have no share In the enjoyment of its privileges or the receipts of its profits. Such a doctrine is subversive of every principle of justice and equality, and never can be sustained. I am not the advocate of opinions that are new to the Whig party of Pennsylvania. At a Whig meeting held in September, 1850, at the Chinese Museum, in Philadelphia, I offered a resolution congratulating the Nation upon the • restoration of peace and-quietude to the country by the ~,,sopg the Compromise Acts of that year. It was titian imou depted, and I then laid down the same principles which am now endeavoring to inculcate. o pt rn November, 1850, the great Union Meeting was held at the same place, and over which John Sergeant presided.— Among others, I again enforced the same principles. At a later period, during the session of the Legislature of this ' State in 1851, a pure Whig meeting was called to request the repeal of the Act of the Legislature of 1947, which do sed the public jails of this Commonwealth against the cus tody of - Fugitive,-Slaves. At that meeting Samuel Breck, second to'no mail in the country, in intelligence and patri otism, presided. I again promulgated the same doctrine, and they were again endorsed by the Whig party on that occasion. These are some of hie reasons why I invoke every Old Line Whig In Pennsylvania to support Mr. Buchanan.— ' The triumph of the Democratic party in Pennsylvania, in October next, would place his election beyond doubt. It would remove the last glimmering hope of the opposition, restore peacti and quietude to the country, and for one gen eration at least, put at rest the present agitation on the question.of slavery. The Old Line Whigs of Pennsylvania possess the power to accomplish this great result; the re sponsibility rests upon them, and I have no doubt but:that • the draft which Is made upon their patriotism will be promptly accepted, and that the great Keystone State will ones more come to the rescue, and do as she has done here tofore, put down all sectional feeling, and at the ballot box give a vote which will strike terror e the enemies of the Constitution and our glorious Uniou, which have so long been the pride and admiration of every friend of civil and - rellgiw liberty throughout the world. ..--.......----__ '-- BgTINO oar ELECTIONS.-Personally we are ` opposed to betting, believing it to be the poor est kind of an argument;' but it is always more or less practised, and we suppose will continue to be. sWe notice thdt a member of .

August 11th, IBIS "‘ The hurly burlfs The baffle's log and we .. _ Monday last was an active daYfaritOes the politicians—. all three' parties were equally sanguine of sues®—the,i Hnow-Nothings made the most desperate exertions to secure:: the success of their ticket, andHterebitieceire the -K. K.'s I abroad that - this State would give her electoral vote to Mr. ! Fillmore. They left not a stone unturned, and run their.' present candidate for Governor upon the strength of Fill more—he having no qualifications of his own, or his party any respect among the masses, and entered the =vale with no weapon other thin the good name of Millard Fill. more, which; from present indications, has proved ineffec tual; the antlea, though largely in the minority in this city and county, stood by their guns, and dealt out the best shot they bad, whilst the Benton party overpowered the opposition and carried the city and county. Early in the day It was supposed the K. N.'s would elect their county tiaket,'but this opinion soon died out, when the Benton Party made a desperate struggle . forthe.hturels... When the polls closed both the Benton and K. N. pares l claimed the battle—the latter went so far as to put the 11g- ,'_. urtes at 1,000 majority in the county, but the counting Of; • the ballots showed quite a different result. Luther M. , Kennett, the present K. N. Congressman was their candi date for re-election, and-they made him the ensign of . the party. Everything that could possibly.luidorie Was resort ed to, to secure his election—judging-teen' t - the accounts received here from Washington eiti,liii.lN.enneit succeeded In pulsing on an average of , three hundred and fifty river and harbor bills per day (I) for the'isst three ,weeks—he had the interest of - the Welf,to much at heeit to leave his 'poet for the purpose of canvassing his district, Ac., Itc.; all thin and everything else was said and done to favor his election. P. P. Blair,jr., - was the Benton candidate and T. C. Reynolds the candidate of the Antles. As the returns began to come in, it was evident the K. N.'e had pat their figures too high, for in nearly every'precinct Col. Benton and Blair came in with a majority, and -the official vote of the county ahem . ] that Benton had 0,965; Polk 2,781; Ew ing 4,7l3—giving Beaton a majority over . Polk of 3,484 ; and Menton- over Ewing 1,052; the two combined over Benton-1129. Blair, (Benton) for Congress obtain ed 6035; Reynold; (Anti) 2181; Kennett, (K. N.) 5549—81 air beating Kennett, the favorite bob-tail nag and Know-Nothing pet, 436. A great deal has been said about the opppsltlon in regard to Frank Blair's position—he is put down as a Free boiler, a Black Republican, &c., de., one thing Is evident, he did not get his election on that issue—there were men who voted for Benton and Frank 1 Blair who never cast a Democratic vote before. If there are any Free boilers or Black Republicans here, we have no ! doubt but that they voted fur Benton and Blair; and on the other hand there were hundreds who voted for them, I which they would not have dose, had ouch a .test been made. Mr. Blair Is an able and intelligent man, as well as a shrewd politician, and played his card to' win—he looks , for a re-election, and to obtain which must shape his course accordingly. It Is not so much Mr. Blalr's Free ' &llem that the K. N's now wish to harness him with, : as the sad fate that has befallen-their little nag—Luther M. Kennett, and the warehouse full of river and harbor I bills, which Mr. K. has been instrumental in getting through Congress—in a horn .' Kennett has been defeated and badly defeated, the cause of which lays in the fact that he connected himself himself with the dark Lantern ; order; he has never been elected to any office without the Irish vote—which he hee always got—but his connection with the Know-Nothings lost that vote. Mr. K. was green enough to suppose that ho had that Irish vote In his hand, and no matter what he did,—whether to take a binding ,nth to crush the foreigner—to proscribe him—to deprive him of his rights In the elective franchise, iic., they would , follow him; but, alas, he was mistaken, and by he deserting his Irish friends, they desert him—the most sensible thing we ever knew the Irish to do. Ile can now-come home ! itud.repent his sloe—his recent course has been a lesson to him and should he to all such aspiring politicians. The entire Benton ticket, with the exception of one judge, was elected in this county: Benton left this county with nearly 1700 majority over Ewing, and it was thought that vote could not be overcome, but when he went Into the country he-fell behind most wofully—leaving the race, contrary to the expectations of nearly everybody, between Polk and Ewing. Benton falling behind and Ewing gain ing in nearly every county up to Thursday night, when Polk began to pick up, and has since been gaining upon Ewing. On Saturday morning Polk was 84 votes ahead of Ewing, and on Saturday night 1100, but yesterday reduced It to 375. There are about 15,000 or 20,000 votes to come In yet, and the indications are that Polk has been elected— some placing his majority at 2,000,3000 and 4,000. The K. N's, however, do not give it up. These votes to hear from gave at the last election about 6to 1 Democratic. Benton is out of, the fight. He wets well endorsed in St. Louts, but the people of the State thought differently. The vote now stands Polk 26,977; Ewing 20,705; Benton 10,303. There is scarcely a doubt as to Polk's election. The Congressional delegation is not yet certain, but supposed to stand, Blair, (Benton) Green, Craig, Phelps . , (Andes) Akers, (K. N•) and Sam. Crauthera (ind.)—the moo between all is close, and the eh - kiting of the votes will only determine the result. Sam. Carouthers is reported to be far enough ahead—so far that he cannot be overtaken.— should he be elected, it is a great victory for him—without any river and harbor bills to back him up—and shows in what estimation be is held by his constituents since his repudiation of Know-Nottdugism. But if Polk is elected Governor it will be the greatest victory ever achieved Ina political race—he had Benton, once invincible in Missouri and the full strength of the Know-Nothings, to contend against. Various now are the rumors as to what disnosition will be made of the Benton electoral ticket—some say It will be taken down, others — that it will not, and still others that it will be replaced with a Fremont electoral ticket. We have it frost the best authority that the latter will not be the case), we also have it from the fast friends of Col. Benton that it will be taken down, and only one ticket run in the State. There are hundreds, and it may be thousands, of Col. Benton's friends who have warmly Aupported him n this canvaas, who would oppose any movement to lose the State to Buchanan. Nine-tenths of them are in favor of but one ticket, and but one ticket only will be run. The Democracy of this State, so unfortunately divided, made up their minds that the party (both claiming Democracy) polling the largest vote should have, and was entitled to the electoral ticket—we are one of that number—the verdict tithe people should be complied with. No matter what may have been our preferences so far as our State is con cerned—we are for BUCELINAN and BRECSINIUDGE, and on far as our ability and Influence extends it shall be directed to accomplish that end. Col. Benton has been defeated— the verdict of the people is against him, and as it is one of the Democratic principles to abide by the majority, we say haul down the Benton electoral ticket, and rally around the Buchanan flag—personal preferences to the contrary not withstanding. With one ticket in the field Missouri will give her electoral vote to Buchanan and Breekinridge by from 20,000 to 20,000—and with two or more, Buchanan is as certain for the'v teof this State as the day of election comes. A gentleman told us yesterday that Col. Benton Inform ed him, that so far as he was concerned, he was. for taking taking down the _Benton 'electoral ticket—he desired this State to go for Buchanan, and'thought his friends would agree to support but one and the same ticket. When the returns are all in some understanding will be arrived at, and the Democratic party, with an unbroken front will march to battle and to victory. The Legislature, as far as heard from, places the Benton- Res ahead, but this will be overcome in the counties yet to be heard from. Tlig Benton party have loot their Dover. nor, and all their Congressmen but one, and without scarcely a doubt the Legislature. The long pending battle has been fought—the strength of parties has been determined, and the State of Missouri has pledged herself to stand where she always has stood in a Presidential campaign—in the front ranks of Deane, racy. The Fillmore men give up all hope of carrying the State—as well they might—and the question is now asked —where is there a St..te Fillmore will get? We have returns from Kentucky of the most gratifying character: the Democracy have gained as tar as heard from abcut 10,000 over the last election, when the K. N.'s carried the State by a little over 4,000. Kentucky is Dem ocratic beyond a doubt—Buchanan's majority will not be less than ten thousand in November. Our returns from Arkansas are aloha cheering. The re ports indicate a Democratic majority In that State of from 3 to 0,000! North Carolina promises well—the Democratic majority there cannot fall far short of 8,000 lowa has not done so well, the returns as far as received show a Democratic gala of 30 over the last election. The Black Republicans will carry their State ticket by about 4 or 5,000 majority. We expected better accounts from lowa, but the election recently held Is no criterion as to what will be the result in November. State questions,—as in all new States,—have predominated 'in lowa, which will not be the case at the Presidential election. We have just as good a right to debit lows, as the Blacks have to claim Ohio or Massachusetts. The Blacks and the K. N.'s of lo wa united, and thus managed, with State policy, to early the State. The Congressional delegation of that State is still In doubt. Take all the recent eleCtions together, sad the. Democracy have great cause to rejoice—they have car Itied 31 electoral votes out °flit We could not wish better, unless we wanted all. The opposition claimed three of these four States, and so tar as we are advised have lost I three out of four. This is glory enough for one day, and only the beginning of the end. The election excitement has overshadowed all local items' We had a fine shower yesterday—everything' looks well.— Businesa is improving. In my next I will be able to give your readers the result of our election, who the Governor will be, soda more accurate statement of the vote of this State. FREMONT AND SLAVERY.—The New York Herald, the'leading Fremont organ, both be fore and since his nomination, openly advo cates that Kansas shall be made a slave state. It says— " Admit Kansas, then, as a slave state, and hereafter let the new free states and slave states come in in pairs—a fair offset to each other. This will dry up the bitter waters which are now bursting forth in the west, and the streams of passion and excitement which they feed." Verily, it seems that all parties can -sup port Fremont, without sacrificing any opinion upon any question. • Loo4 at tfie Figures. Senator Bigler, in his recent speech at Tren ton, after ridiculing the idea that any man could regard Col. Fremont. as fit and worthy of the Presidential chair, and presenting in a forcible manner the dangerous tendency of sectiohal.parties, and proving that Col. F., if elected, must be a sectional President, said: That the experiment would ,be the more_ hazardous because Col. Fteinont, if his election. were possible, would not have the sanction of the mass of the electors; that :it the last pree dential election 3,147,000 voteswere cast, Pres ident Pierce receiving 1,596.000, Gen. Scott 1,393,000, and J. P. Hale 158,000. The ag gregate at the next election may be safely estimated at 3,600,000, and, according to his calculation, Col. Fremont could not - receive more than Se million ; the estimates he had seen of his friends would not give him more than 1,150,000, leaving 2,450,000 votes against, him, and placing him in a minority or 1,300,- 000—being 150,000 more than the whole num ber cast in his favor !!! In fifteen out of the thirty-one States, he will not-receive 15,000 ; if he receives a single vote in_ the remaining sixteen States, he will not have a Majority in more than four or five, and in -the others his friends only claim a plurality. We have, then, e-stirring contest for the Presidency between Mr. Buchanan and Col. Fremont, and yet there is not a candid maw in the opposition who will not admit that Mr. B. is certain of a majority of not less that 860,000 of the popular vote. No wonder the republicans despise the doctrine of popular sovereignty. ; They have determined to defy it at the election.. As for the Keystone, he said Mr. 'Buchanan could easily defeat the united opposition, and that, divided as they now are, Col. Fremont had not a:ghost of a chance for the State. These remarks of Senator Bigler furnish a conclusive refutation of the idle stories circa. lated as to his entertaining doubts of the trium phant success of the Democracy in Pennsylva nio. There is no friend of Mr. 13itehanan laboring more zealously and efficiently than Mr. Bigler, and none who has better knowl edge of the prospects in his State, and none mere confident of his success in Pennsylvania and the Union. gkir The attempts at buyingaresses to sus tain Fremont and the Republican cause are becoming everyday incidents. The Mariposa claim-holder and Mariposa cattle-dealer, has immense funds at his command, part of which is now freely squandered, with the expecta tion of repayment With compound interest when the plunderers obtain full swing of the Treasury. A number of papers, oven in fbis State, were for several months halting iu their selection of a Presidential candidate, but within the last three or lour weeks we find nearly every one of thentrunning up the. iing of " Fremont hnd Dayton." NVe jdo not say that they were bribed to do so, but when we have the proof that bribery has been attempt-' ed in a number of instances, we may.-rest pretty well assured that it has succeeded in, some instances where suspicion does not rest' The latest instance of buying up a press-by, the Fremontere happened at Easton, Pa: A• proposition was made to Josiah Cole, editor of the German Independent Democrat, published at Easton, to pay him $3OOO, if he would de vote his paper to the support of Fremont and his abolition .principles. They caught "the wrong sow by the ear." The proposition was contemptuously rejected, and the bribers ex posed. The cause must really be a poor one, which renders such expedients :necessary.— Lei).
