Will you stand idle and listless whilst they impudently dare you to the con test ? Will you allow them to boast and brag; forever, without teaching them the lesson that your honest and manly hearts only can dare to teach them? Will you, more than all, allow them to establish their hated, disgusting and dangerous principles, by gaining a victory over you? No! Your shouts that have rent the air, these many days, give assurance that you will not. Your eagerness for the fight, exhibited in the preparations which you have made for it, give evidence that you are not deaf to your country's calls. Up, then, and at them ! Think of the days of Jackson, when victory crowned your efforts and glory wove its garland for the candidates of your party. Think of the country that it is your duty to protect from the insidious attacks of a wily and .unscrupulous enemy : Think of the u n i on of these States, which it is incumbent upon you, as you love your liberties, as you sympathise with humanity, as you hope for our future national prosperity, to cherish and perpetuate ! Think of Pennsylvania, of her interests, of her claims to have the President, of her character as a conservative State, of her prideand glory as the "Keystone of the Arch!" Think of Lancaster county, of the danger that overhangs her in the event of Col. Fre mont's election, of the prospect in that case of her being a border county and the seat of worse than "border-ruffianism !" Think of the mon grel parties that oppose you—all the ists and isms of the day ! Think of the great and good men that have sacrificed their interests and chances of preferment, to aid you in the con test, and who now look to you fur a hearty co-operation! Think of your opponents pro claiming that we must have a new Bible, a new Constitution and a new God! Think of these things, noble Democrats, and fight the battle that is before you, as you fought of yore when you had braver and more chivalrous foes to contend against. Up, guards, and at them : GLORIOUS RESULT ! Make Way for Little Delaware! The elections held throughout the State of Delaware, on Wednesday last, for Inspectors and Assessors, resulted in an overwhelming triumph fur the Democracy in every county in the State. The majorities are a4 s follows, in round numbers: New Castle County. i 51.) mai Kent County, 450 ". Sussex County, 500 " This is truly glorious fur little Delaware.— A majority of 1800 in a State that has almost uniformly been against the Democracy I Huzza for BUCHANAN and BRECKINRIDCE.— Their majority in Delaware will not he less than 3,000! The election in Florida has resulted in the success of the Democratic ticket for Governor and Congress, and a large Democratic major ity in the State Legislature. [Correspondence of the Daily Pennsylviinian.l Connecticut Democratic. BRIDGEPORT, OCt. 8, 1856. MR. EDITOR :—One hundred and ten towns in Connecticut held their election for town officers on Monday last—of these 66 were Dem ocratic, and 44 Black Republican, which is, a considerable gain on the last election for the Democrats. The aggregate popular vote is largely in favtr of the Democracy. It is true that many who call themselves Fillmore men, went with the Democrats ; nevertheless, we count it a glorious Democratic victory, and I know the Republicans do. The New York papers of to-day—almost all of them, seem to convey the idea that it was a Fremont victory. I send you this, that you may set the matter right at once in your State papers. Bridgeport city held her election for Charter officers only on that day, and it was a hard fought contest, and we elected our whole ticket with one individual exception, by a handsome majority, and by which we judge we shall carry the whole town for the Democrats by 150, on the 4th of November. Rely on Con necticut for Buchanan ! Thaddeus Stevens making a Fillmore Electoral Ticket. THADDEUS STEVENS is greatly aldrmed lest there may be some honest friends of MILLARD FILLMORE in Pennsylvania. He fears that many of these men may not vote his State ticket. He knows how they hate and despise him, and in order to bring them into this last humiliation, the cunning old fox called a meet ing at Harrisburg, last Tuesday, to fix up a Fu sion Electoral Ticket for both sides This was a shrewd movement. It was worthy of Thad deus Stevens. To bring the Filmoreites and Fremonters together on one Electoral ticket, would be an achievement worthy of the most subtle magician ; to teach the one to trust the other, and to convince both that their cause was common, and that they could embrace and swear to break up and save the Union at the same time—this indeed was an effort wor thy of the genius of the most dangerous and skilful demagogue of the day? He brought CAMERON and W. F. JOHNSTON, and others of his boon companions forward to witness the bans—the marriage between the two par ties—the amalgamation by which the white Fillmore men were to be absorbed by the the black freebooters. But the trouble of Stevens was, that the other side was not present—there were no real Fillmore men to consent to the nuptials, and so Thaddeus Stevens went broken-hearted home. Is it possible that this hoary political gam bler, with his loaded dice, his marked cards, and his tainted history, reminding Pennsyl vania of a thousand humiliations, all of his doing, can again deceive any portion of the white men of our State?—Pennsylvanian. CONGRESS Florida All Right The . tlztia Compensation.- Our opponents, who maintain that Mr. l'Roberts' Compensation Act does not increase rthe pap of Meinbers of Congress, avert a falsehood, AND THEY KNOWN IT. 1 The Act reads' " That the compensation of each Senator, Representative and Delegate in .Congress shall be six THOUSAND DOLLARS for each Congress and mileage as now provided by law, &c." This is exactly $3,200 more than the amount of their pay at $8 per day. But our opponents publish a calculati , m of Hon. John Covode, in which he endeavors to show that the new law redam'the pay! His estimate is this : Per diem, 270 days at $8 Mileage, Books voted by House. Pay under old law, Compensation under new law $3.000 Deduct for absence, 200 Pay under new law, Now let us sift this calculation First. Mr. Covoda, only estimates for the long session—the first year of the term. %Ve will complete the reckoning with an account of the short session—the second year of the term. Per diem ninety-one days (the session can last no longer) at $8 Pay under new law Su that if Mr. Covode thought he lust $lOOO on the first session, he will be consoled with a gain of $2,272 on the second Second. Mr. Covude adds mileage to the pay under the old law, but not to that under the new, while it is precisely the sante under both• Read the extract from the uew law above, " the compensation shall be $6OOO and mileage as now provided by law." So that the $260 must be taken from one side of his account, or added to the other. Third: The books voted by the House un der the old system were not a gift to the members, and no honest man could make merchandise of them. They belong to the constituents of the member as well as himself. Besides they never amounted to $l3BO ; and this Congress has voted itself as many books as any that went before it. Fourth. These books were only given to the members once in their Congressional career; so that this item could only apply to the first session of their service, while the extra com pensation is added to the first, ,econd, third, fourth, and every other session. Fifth. Neither Mr. Covode nor any other member is entitled to credit, under the new law, fur deduction on account of absence. The law provides that such deduction shall only be made for Want of eujicient excuse; and unless the member has a sufficient excuse he ought to be in his place. Our readers will, therefore, perceive that Mr. Covode's calculation is FALSE, FRAUDULENT AND DESIGNED TU IMPOSE ON THE PUBLIC. The simple truth is, that our members of Congress have increased their pay about $3200 a term —more than doubled it ! And so says Horace Ureely, of the ..i.New York Tribune, a political friend of Messrs. Covude and Roberts. By his judgment they must fall. The Express on Extra Pay! The Saturday _Express in one column asserts that " every body knows that HIESTER got more from the government in books than the extra pay [for which Mr. ROBERTS voted] amounts'to"—and also, that by voting for it, Mr. ROBERTS " saved the government $lBO,OOO a year. In another paragraph in the adjoining col umn of the same paper, it is alleged that " Mr. HIESTER absolutely refused to run as a candidate for Congress, until the very same extra-compensation bill had become a law,"— and that "as soon as he knew to a certainty that, if elected, he would he sure of the in creased salary, he at once consented to be a candidate." We should like to know how the editor of the Express can reconcile these two para graphs. The first one alleges that the extra pay is a saving to the government—whilst the other asserts that Mr. HIESTER would not consent to be a candidate until after the pay was increased • The truth is—the Black Republican organs find it an up-hill business to defend Mr. Roe- ERTS' vote—a vote that' carried the bill and increased the Congressional expenses of the Government about ONE MILLION OF DOL. LARS ANNUALLY: Nor is it possible for them to throw dust in the eyes of the people, all of whom know the difference between eight and EIGHTEEN Dollars per day. Now, we are authorized by Mf. HIESTER to say that, if elected to Congress, he will vote to repeal the extra-compensation bill, and re store the $8 per diem allowance. Choose ye, then, fellow-citizens of Lancaster County, which of the men you will have to represent you in Congress—lsAec E. HIESTER at $8 per day, or ANTHONY E. ROBERTS at $lB ! This is one of the questions which you are to deter mine TO-DAY. Freedom of Speech On Saturday evening week, in Philadelphia, Mr. - JAMES B. CLAY, a son of the immortal statesman of Kentucky, made an eloquent ap peal in behalf of Buchanan and Breckinridge, at the commencement of which he said that his-life had been threatened if he should dare to come to Philadelphia and speak. This illustrates the meaning of their cry about " freedom of speech " from the Fremont forces. It means free speech for Fred. Douglas and all other - sound Fremont Abolitionists, black or white. The following letter received by Mr. Clay, before he left home for Philadelphia, contains the threat refered to. It is a beautiful speci men of Black Republican literature both in style and sentiment: PHILADELPHIA, SEPT. 18, 1856. JAMES B. CLAY, Esq., Lexington, Ky. Sir—A man who will fraternize with the murderers of his father is even worse than they, and deserves the death of a dog. That will be your fate if ever you show your damned ignominious head here. You were waited for if you had come here last evening. Be warned by one who was a firm personal and political friend of your worthy father, and who gives you this warning from no partisan feeling, (as I shall not vdte at the coming Presidential election,) but would rather not have your blood on his hands. As you deserve, your enemy, J. L. NAMELESS. These are my initials. [Postmarked Sept. 19, Phila. Direction same hand-writing. We have no doubt that seven-eighths of all the Fremont men in the country, fraternize in entertaining this sentiment, at the same time that they bray and howl about " freedom of speech." This letter contains nothing more than the very spirit of the "Freedom shriek ers" in Kansas—Sharpe's Rifle Heroes! Negro Competition with White Labor We ask our mechanics, workingmen, labor ers, if they are prepared for an inroad of three :millions of negroes from the Soutll to compete with them in every department of industry? If slavery shall be abolished in the Southern States, the negro population, would not be suf fered to remain there a month. Then the .black mechanic, who can live upon scraps and sleep upon the curbstone, could afford to have - the wages of labor reduced to a few shillings a day, and make money by it.

More Aid to the Infidels 1 We clip the following notice from the Inland Daily (one of the Black Republican organs) of Saturday morning. What do the Christian people of Lancaster think of this desecration of the Sabbath ? Preaching at Fulton Hall.—Rev. L. C. Lock wood, a Kansas Pioneer, will preach at Ful ton Hall, to-morrow (Sunday) afternoon, at 3 o'clock, on "Free Speech and its Martyrs," and in the evening at 7 o'clock on "Kansas and its Martyrs." Candor from an Unexpected Quarter The Philadelphia Sun (a Fremont paper) of Tuesday last has the following article in reference to Kansas. The stock in trade of the "Freedom Shriekers" is exhausted. Gov ernor GEARY has settled matters there, and peace is restored to the people of that Terri tory : RESTORATION OF QUIET IN KANSAS.—The news received ria St. Louis from Kansas to the 19th of September, gives cheering en couragement that the measures taken by Gov. GEARY will speedily lead to the pacification of Kansas. It is known to our readers that we have persistently condemned the shameful in terference of the Missourians in the affairs of Kansas, and the great evils which have result ed from this interference have shown that our fears were not ill-grounded. The prospects of peace and a return to the foundation principles of representative government, that the will of the people fairly expressed at the polls by legal votes shall be obeyed and respected, cannot fail to be gratifying to all good citizens. We are entirely independent of and above the in fluences of those partizan tactics which try to make the worse appear the better cause, or to conceal the truth because ignorance of it may facilitate the chances of this or that political aspirant. Therefore we stand ready now, as we have always done, to do justice to any party that may bring about such a condition of things. We have ever condemned the repeal of the Missouri Compromise as a wanton` and uncalled for re-opening of agitation, but since the act was committed, and its restoration ap pears impossible and is not even claimed by many who staunchly resisted its infraction, we have anxiously desired that the principles of the Kansas-Nebraska Bill should have a fair trial. They have resulted well in Ne braska, which Territory was organized by the actual settlers under that bill, and it cannot be doubted that, if left to operate in Kansas, without interruption from any quarter, they must be equally successful. The action of Gov. Joss W. GEARY, a Pen*lvanian, re cently appointed to the responsible position by President PIERCE, looks like the dawning of a new era in Kansas, and thus far has , shown that a man of nerve and of sound prin ciples, can do much to put down the unfor tunate difficulties and prevent the unlawful interferences that have so long disturbed the country and retarded the Isis and pros perity of the Territory. His inaugural pro clamation has been }yell followed up, and the measures he has taken promise to bring about the most wholesome results. Baltimore City Election—Fighting and Loss of Life. iSALTIMORE, Wednesday. Oct. 8, 1856. An election for Mayor and Councilmen was held in this city to-day. During the latter part of the day there was a great deal of dis order and fighting, pistols and guns being freely used. The fighting in the Eighth and Fourteenth Wards was particularly severe.— Four men were killed and twenty wounded— among the latter three children. The returns are now coming in. Swann, the "American" candidate, is undonbtely elected. SECOND DISPATCH A most serious riot occured at Lexington Market to-day, between the adherents of the New Market Fire Company, (Democrats,) and the American Club, "Rip Raps." The former were driven from the Twelfth Ward polls and forced into their engine house, where they armed themselves with muskets, when a gen eral fight ensued, lasting half an hour, pis tols, clubs and muskets being freely used on both sides. Twenty, more or less, were wounded. Charles Brown and two others named Walters and Sparks, and another, name unknown, were killed. Two or three of the wounded are dangerously so. • The Council stands thus : First Branch, 13 "Americans" and 7 Democrats. Second Branch, tied. Last year the Democrats only elected four members of the second branch. Majorities for Swan, 12,064; majorities for Wright, 11,046. 1,008 K. N. majority in city. In 1852 Scott had 700 majority over Pierce in Baltimore, when the State went for Pierce by 5,954 majority. seym The Democracy of this City were ad dressed on Friday evening last, in Centre Square, by Hon.

If their mountaineers are so alarmed now, we 'shall frighten them to death before the election. Buchanan and Fremont. A comparison between the democratic and black-republican candidates for the Presidency is thus drawn by a correspondent of the lively Haven Register : " Among all the rival candidates who !have been run for President of our country there have been none whose difference in quaofica tions has been as great as between Mr. Bu chanan and Mr. Fremont. The former a man of admitted talents, statesmanship, integrity, and experience, intimate with the foreign and domestic relations of our country, "familiar with legislative and executive functions; ad mirably fitted for the times, and his antece dents give full assurance that he will exeri, his administrative influence to preserve our Linion and our Constitution, and continue the peace and prosperity of our country. The latter, a young man of respectable talents, an explhrer, but with only twenty days of 'legislative expe rience, has nu executive experience, challenged a brother senator to a duel for ' words sphken in debate,' has been concerned in two duels, has been court-martialed and found guilty of in subordination, and has trumped up accounts of more than eight hundred thousand dollars, which have not been allowed." Again : "The great misfortune of Mr. Fremont's election woulcrbe that, being wholly disqual ified for the station, ho would he dependant on others for advice, and would not know whether the advice given was right or wrong. Falling into dangerous hands, he would he at the mercy of reckless demagogues. Can it be possible but what a majority of the people will prefer :qr. Buchanan to Fremont? Only think of a party whose chief fuglers would be men like George Law, Colonel 'Webb, Greely, & Co., and whose chaplains and spiritual guides would be Theodore Parker and Ward Beecher. In those days our citizens would realize the words of Scripture, 'Hie adversaries are the chief; his enemies prosper ; for the Lord hath afflicted her; her children have gone into captivity before the enemy." TIME'S CHANGES.—The inventory of Steam power, Railroads, and machinery have during this century changed the means and courses of living, while the discoveries of science have done even more for the advancement of human happiness and the amelioration of human. suf fering. Our forefathers when they were Sick, drank bitter drugs that did not cure, and bowed them down under disease's that are now easily broken. They tried crude roots and herbs, which failed them. Now scientific research has discovered that this peculiar prbperty of one root and that of another, was required. It is through this light and on; this principle that Dr. AYER has compounded his two great remedies--Cherry Pectoral ;and Cathartic Pills. He has concentrated the curative virtues of our best vegetable remedies. The result shows their origin, and their results are known through this community. Mark the difference to a patient in the lapse of fifty years. Then he swallowed his bitter pill in vain : now the sick man takes his sugared pill or honied drop and soon is well again. Those adaptations of the sciences which bear upon the security or the comforts , of human life are after all the tangible points of their vantage to man. Without them it matters little how much may be discovered, or what we know, since it is unavailable to our necessities and use.—Eastern Literary Review. COMMUNICATIONS:. MESSRS. EDITORS:—The discussion, at Quarryville, that : "a stranger from another part of the county," and R. Mont goinery had arranged, came off last Friday. James Black was the lawyer from Lancaster—the assistant of loseph Gibbons, while W. F. S. Warren was the colleague of Mr. Montgomery. Mr. Black's speaking consisted wholly of fanatical shrieks for poor, bleeding, suffering, down-trodden ' Kansas—"free homes for free men," Ice., expressed in a doleful tone, with melancholy visage, endeavoring to start tears into the eyes of the sympathetic negro worshippers— but, alas, no one would cry! His tender rigmarole was all knocked into a "eocked hat" by Warren showing its falsity, and then winding up in one of the most powerful and thrillingly eloquent appeals for the Constitution and the Union we have ever listened to. His eloquence was ac- knowledged even by the opposition. The fact is, Black cannot be compared as an orator to Warren. Just think, Black had the presumption to say that any white man, ' then in the house, even if he bad blue eyes, might be taken 4 the next day by Southerners, and sold at the auction block in the South I Oh, dear! oh, cracky ! Now Seuteher has griuly grey blue eyes and rather a blunt nose, so be is on the • look ontl When he gets upon the cotton fields its the I South you shell hear from him. He also said, upon inqUiry, 1 In the presence of a number of persons, (to whom it sounded ' very strangely,) that he was opposed to the eaten- sion of the Missouri Compromise line—also, that Henry Clay bad left to his country a very bad record.— What do you think of that, old line Henry Clay Whigs 1— I and yet this same fanatical, incendiary orator has the face to ask you to follow in the wake of his leading. When Gibbons took the floor be turned his ; hack upon the people. Black requested him to address the people.— "No,iiereplied Gibbons, "I cannot talk to the people and face them." Nc/wonder, in uttering such abominable sen timents, that he was not able to look decent white people in the face. His haranguing would not take with the people. His squatty, dumpling figure—his cracked mice, and tlltiog duck'dodging, thunder-like gestures excited considerable merriment—his sentiments contempt. People are aatiatied in this region with such Fremont advocates. If the leaders of the Fremont party, in this county, have any desire to oonvham a number of Fremonters in this locality that I Fremontism Is real Garrison -Abolitionism, Just let them send down Black and Gibbons once more, and all will be ; right. Their antecedents are known. Gibbons said they charge him with being an Abolitionist. He said he; was one, and hoped to God he would be °nem long as he lived. I Scutcher heard one Fremont man say he had got enough of Nlggerism, and was now ready to support 'Buchman.— Mr. Montgomery's port of the discussion consisted Lae:Ting ; a true statement of the Slavery question, and of the position 1 of the Demoersttc party; also a proper dissection of the exaggerated ICIIIIZEIS matter. After the discussion was ever, Gibbons challenged the party for an evening dlscusilon, 1 knowing at the same time that Warren bad an engagement for that evening. Mr. Montgomery, "like a true knight," accepted the challenge for himself, but Gibbons, like his great prototype, Stamm, tacked out.

The sun had scarcely wade its appearance in the cloud less sky before our streets were crowded with wagons, and a dense mass of people had assembled, tieing; with each other in their patriotic devotion to their ccutitry and her Institutions. At 9 o'clock the Wheatland Club. fivi. ...at strung, marched from their tired Quarter., Cit. Hail. under the marshalship of the President, Dr. Welehens, I" the head of North Queen street. They were preceded by the ..Uent- . crab" Printing Establishment, and the beautiful banner 14 the Club, which woo the admiration of all.

The Club halted at Jaines street. and hero were mot by a delegation of some 150 sturdy nice chanlcs from the Locomotive Works, who had their own banners and music. This delegation was composed of a noble looking body of men. and were escorted Into line by Assistant Marshal Ilerzog. After a detention of about an hour. at this point, the monster delegation from the northern part of the county arrived. This delegation was fully two mil,, long, and carried numerous banners and devices, whirl] were most handsomey decorated with flowers and evergreens. Con. spicuoue in this delegation was the beautiful Banner pre sented by the Ladies of title to the Werwiek Itneltanan Club. area king ; and ihim, and The delegation from Columbia and Marietta numbered over WOO men. The Millerotown, Safe Harbor and wash• ington procession extended nearly a mile in length. So did the Strasbing and Paradise, and a, also the Leaeock and New Holland processions. All these delegations were accompanied by beautiful banners and excellent bands of music. There were various other smaller delegations which we have not room to notice in detail. At 103 o'clock these delegations from the County, miles in length, with beautiful and appropriate banner',, their horses handsomely, eapariboued. and wagons tastefully decorated, came pouring in from every direction under the charge of their respective Marsha , s, who escorted them to Centre Square where they were plaNnt under the control of the gallant Chief Marshal, Col. Cyrus Cat many, and his efficient Aids, Maj.T. li. Pearce and Chas. M. Howell, Esq. and from thence proceeded on the route previously desigf 'rated. The procession thus formed, by uniting the several delegations from the county, occupied at least an hour and a half in passing a given point. It was computed to have been six miles in length. As this never ending mass of free and independent voters, passed through the streets the moat unbounded enthusiasm prevailed, the windows and doors were filled with beauty, the houses elegantly adorned with wreaths and appropriate designs, the stars and stripes waved in all their majesty from many windows, and were suspended at various points un the route across the streets. Cheering indeed was this glorious spectacle, and long.and loud wore the cheers which the gallant sons of De o mocracy gave in response to the smiles of fair women, who are ever the friends of •`Cnion:" Many of the houses were thrown open, and tables filled with the choicest viands regaled the weary and the hungry. A description of the procession as it passed along, and the many incidents that occurred, is too much for our pen. Each delegation, their handsome banners, the bands of music, all deserve particular notice, but we must be conten t , to say that the wild unthuslatm and the frequent excla mations of admiration, which greeted 11011 every where , was language more potent than see call give utterance to in this very imperfect report. After passing over the route the procession was dismissed in Centre Square, to re-assemble in the afternoon at 2 o'clock. At 234' o'clock the immense procession wee again formed, all on foot except the Marshals, and marched to an Orchard, corner of Duke and Lemon streets, where the multitude were called to order by H D.

At 4 o'clock the Keystone Club of Philadelphia arrived, and were received at the Locomotive Works by the Chief Marshal, hie Aide and -Assistant Marshals, and thelVheat land Club, and escorted to the place of meeting. This del egation numbered over 5,000 men. In it was a large body of the German citizens of Philadelphia, who had their own antlers and music, and a large cannon, which ever and anon belched forth its loud not. of Democratic thunder. The whole delegation marched through the principal streets, bearing the most beautiful banner, accompanied by Several fine Bands of Music, and were every where greeted with unbounded enthusiasm by the sturdy men of Lancaster. Cheer after cheer rent the air as they gazed on the banners carried at the head of the pro.ssion. one of which bore the inscription, "Philadelphia salutes the Home of the next President," and another handsomely painted one representing the Car of Liberty . drawn by two "Bucks," inscribed with “No Woolly Horse in Liberty's Team." Although the Orchard wee packed with a dense crowd of the Democracy, no difference was perceptible in the num. hers which thronged our streets. A separate meeting was held at the Railroad Depot, which was addressed by Col. Wm. B. Rankin, of Philadelphia, C. & Haldeman, Esq., of Columbia, and Oen. Wm. H. Miller, of Harrisburg. Here too the utmost enthusiasm prevailed among the vast mul- 7 titude of patriotic citizens.

The late frosts which we have bad did considerable damage to the growing crops, the extent of which is not yet known, but enough to cause an advance , in the supposed Injured arti cles.. In tobacco, nacre has been an advance of I©2c. per lb in consequence of the early frosts, and a still further ad ranee is anticipated. The fill trade thus far has not beau so extensive as many supposed, which is caused altogether by the low stage of water in alf the Western rivers. There are but few boats running, and the most exhabitant rates. of freight are demanded, which has proved a greatobstacle to the business of our merchants. The receipts of gran ary very light, and tEe produce market generally extremely dull. „Health of the city excellent. During the progress of the State Fair, the Democracy are to have a grand rally and torch light procession, andmany prominent and eloquent speakers will be present. Senator Douglas, Richardson, Cass, Wright of Indiana, Preston of Kentucky, Breckinridge, Cobb, of Georgia, Jones, of Tenn., are all invited to be present, ,besides a large number names do not now occur to us. This will be one of the • largest political gatherings :field In the West during the Presidential campaign, and great preparations urn being made for a grand and glorious time. The Know-Nothings are also to make a display during Fair Week, and many prominent speakers are invited to attend. Senator Douglas was in our city on Saturday, and In the evening spoke to a large and enthusisstic Democratic meet. ing at Bel Mlle, Ills. The "le Giant," with Col.

We, however, place Buchanan's majority in that State at 10,000. We could not desire better or more cheering prospects than we have in Tentless.; our friends there are confident of sweeping the State by an limmense majority. In the other States, South and W.t4—lt is all like the handle of a jug—on one side! How anyieensible man can predleb tke defeat of the Democracy, with the bright and glorious prospects now before the country, we , are unable to com prehend. We have always predicted that Buchanan would obtain the electoral vote of twenty three States, and have no canoe to change that predittion. The three former Whig candidates for Governor of Ohio —Messrs. Johnson, Barrere and Vinton—are in the field for Buchanan. Two of the Scott electors in '52, and the Whig nominees for Governor and Secretary of State, in . Illinois, go with the Democrafy in the present canvass, and have declared their Intention of voting and working for Buchanan and Breckinaldge. Joe. L. White, formerly Whig member of Congress from Indiana, has declared for Bu chanan. Maj. It. D. Mays,arl able and prominent whig lawyer of WestertkKentucky, has publicly declared his in tention to support the Cincinnati nominees. He is now stumping his district for the Democracy. This is the fifth prominent Whig, says the Louisrille Oruricr, that has quit the K. N. party of that district since the August election of 1855.
