A Union Convention was held at Tfttrri -
burg. on Tuesday h.-b for the purpose of funn
ing an Fleet oral Ticket, which was numerous
ly attended. We have but a meagre report
froiu which it np|<ears that the proceeding
were very enthn- ><t;e, and a determination
nianifestcil fcr the defeat of I>. u.vnan. The
Electoral Ticket given aautc, a< uuaniuious

lveptt hi icons ! it new remains for you tr put
forth every effort to r-vde p.i the State. F>y
sup|K>rtiug the above ticket, y >u accomplish all
the objects you can desire. Vour votes will
be given dircrtlv for J' tt.v C. FREVOXT, by
which we shall bo able to ascertain our itrougth
throughout the State, and at the same time
we shall l>e aiding in the overthrow of Korder-
Uafftanism. Votir -tiffrages will aid in tlic ad
vancement of your principles ai d your candi
dates. But little time now remains for action.
Let that time he well etnpioyed. If crerv op

There are yet T<nvn>kips in this County
where the Republican party is dedcienl in or
gaaizatioo. We urge upon our friends in such
localities to immediately set at work to make
arrangements for polling the entire Republican
vote. Victory i- within rmr reach, but to se
cure it. we must labor earnest!v until the j>olls

THE FIIAMORII ik.t r*:sß
Tt is now proven beyond doubt, that a ]vi

THE RESULT IN TENWfTLVANIA.

• vote of several eosn'ics fcot having yet boon
ireccijpi : huf ft will juc4)ably range from two,
to four thousand. We are free to confess that
we are disappointed at this result. And yet
: as the smoke nf the battle Hears nwav. and
*
we are enabled to judge of the causes that
have produced it, we are neither surprised nor .
disheartened. The only wonder is, that the
plans of the slavery-propagandists were not |
• more completely successful.
Their has been perfect—their
: command of means unlimited, and their exer
tions directed by shrewd and unscrnpnlous
; leader-, have been extraordinary. Against the
! compact, well disciplined forces of the slavery
adjuncts, lias been arrayed a foree, only formi
dable because of the justice of its cause. Jt
has been wit'nmt.organization, without leaders,
j and more particularly without "the sinews of
war." It wius an undisciplined, ungcneraßeil
crowd, battling against a well ordered ami
well marshalled army. It has been like raw
j militia engaging regular troops.
The result is full of hope. It shows that
Mr. Buchanan bus not the hearts of the |eo
; pie of his owu state. To-say the lea-t it is a
| drawn battle, and considering the circumstnn- •
ces, a disgraceful defeat to that candidate.— !
1 l'eunsylvauia, which four years hitice gave j
; Uifkc*: a majority of nitielceu thousand, is now
I |
barely saved to Mr. lit < h wax, tiftertlfe most
superhuman exertions, by the unsparing use of
money and against a divided opposition.
We hud counted ujtou ndifferent result, and
we felt confident that that result would extin
tiiigiii-h the last hope of Mr. Bn haxan's elec
tion. We ti nsted to the Second Tuesday of
OetolK.r to decide the question of the Urc.si-,
dency. It lias not done it—-and the battle is
! yet to be fought. The lesson of the late elee
| tion is. that Mr. UrcirAXAX is in the minority
j in lii.- own Slat, .and that a reasonable amount
' of exertion wiil demonstrate this fact.
Prominent among the causes which have
made the contest such a close one. is the treach- i
er of some of the pretended frici tls of the
Union State Ticket. They have been bought
up, by the money raised in Custom Hoti-cs,
Cost Ofii.es. and fruui ike salaries of govern
ment ofacials, and while pretending to Fiippcirt
the State Ticket, have secretly been aiding in
its defeat. They arc now j>owerless to do
harm.
THE RESULT IN BRADFORD.
It is with no ordiuary feelings of pride and
gratification that we refer t> the vote of this
County, as shown by the official table, which '
will be found in another column. Of eight
thousand votes cast the candidates of the Re
publican party receive six thousand, or a ma-i
jority of four thousand. We doubt if any '
county in the State has done as well for either 1
party, unless it be our neighbor, Tioga.
The friends of Freedom have can-o to be |
j proud of this glorious re-alt. It ha? been
! achieved in the face of the most indefatiirnble J
. and desperate efforts on the part of the slave-'
I ry-propagandists. Able and elocpiout gentle-:
men from abroad have visited the school houses i
ot the County, aided by speakers at horn- 1 , to I
| persuade our voters to cast their suffrages to '
j aid in the election of ,T \Mr= Brai.vxAv Go- 1
I vernmcut officials have distributed the funds !
i raised truiu salaries, to effect the same object. I
and no means, fair e>r unfair, bare been left un
tried to advance the pro-lnverv i-ause.
On the contrary, we have had i.o aid, cx-1
cept such as wars derived from the manifestjus
: tice ot our cause. Titc work has lieeu done
priuetpallv in the election districts, by men re-!
siding therein. It las been ace..run!;shed hv
<. * i
active exertions, by appeals to the judgment'
and consciences of men. Tne question of Free
dom or .Slavery iu the Territories has been!
presented to the people, and they have ea<t !
their votes as evtrv honest, upright man will 1
I- J I
J unless controlled by sulfi-h considerations, to'
preserve our Territories for Wliiu Labor. i
This is the fir.-t occasion where the question i
of Freedom has been presented in a plain and '
| tangible form, to the voters of this County,
stripped of all extraueous issues. luthecou- (
llicta of the past, the antagonistic parties here. '
1 have Ix-cn equally earnest in assi rtitvg tnoir
friendship for the srreaf c:!-e of Freedom. '
Xoar the to be decid- l between
Slavery and Freed m. The result is full of •
exuita'tou for kite present a id <A hope for tiie
i future. The verdict is somewhat !es. ovcr
i whelming, because the ojcK>*ition have not
dared opcr.ly to declare and -upport the priu
. cijdes of t'.ieir party, but Lave urged that the j
election ot Mr. Bichanan would promote the
objects which cor voters so much desire. We
have no question thnt many wclt-meaning and 1
honest n>cu have hevn dec<ived by tlteserepre
sentations, and have snpporu.d a cause which
is in deadly hostility la the principles tliev
have so much at. uvnrt.
*s>7* One of the many falsehoods i-oncoetM
aud < ir. dated ab.wtt the Peoples* Candidate.
; is the eft reiterated charge that he assaulted
Set r Foovr and afterwards challenged him.
Tims falsehood i, entirely refuted by a letter
trorn Mr. which we publish on ixir out
side. whim A lishes thewhoie storv frc .a be-1
giiiing to e d. Repubiicans 1 this is a fa ; r'
sample of the base calumnies utter-d bv the
Bachaniers. They are tua tut fact aud as was
this story, out of whole cloth.
**" We do not give khe vote of the State '
at the late election, because it is not complete. '
We shall wait for the official, which is coming'
in slowly.

If'r F.MQNT oyer that given for the State Ticket i
We believe this is the determination of, every
lieput&caj. The result of the late'election
shnws that if proper exertions arfrumde, l\m
sylvania iseertuin to go against litci fsvxam. —
The issue is now clearly defined —the contest
narrowed down, and to be decided upon the
1 qnesfion whether "Freedom or Slavery shall be J
predominant in the Republic.
Republicans ! you must relax no efforts, but
1 rather put forth your most vigorous exertions.
) It its not enough that Bradford has done well,
: she must do better. There is no election dis
trict where our vote cannot be increased—and
we hear of several towns which did not poll
near the fall vote. The time is short, in which
to make prephrations, ami it should be improv
ed. You now know how your voters stand—
who are true, who against you, who doubtful,
and who dilatory, or likely to be absent frinii
the polls. The great work to beneeompfidted
is to prornre the attendance of every voter. ;
For this purpose School district committees
should be appoiuted with teams to bring to the
polls every man likely to stay awav. See that
, this is done, and we shall increase our majori
ty fully five hundred, on the 4lh of November.
PIERCE ON THE EMIGRANT AID SOCIETY.
We publish in another column, a letter ad
dressed by Thomas Sherwood to Gov. Keoder,
giving an account of a conversation at the
White House botwen the writer of that let
ter ami Franklin Fierce, of whieli Kansas was
the subject. This conversation was held in the
preseuee of the Hon. Asa Packer, and took
place in February, 1 >oo. a mouth, therefore,
before the election in Kansas was held. Al
ready, at that time, the partisans of Slavery,
led on by Stringfcllow and Atchison, were be
j ginning to complaiu latterly of Gov. Reeder j
because he would not allow himself and his
official authority to be made mere tools in their
1 hands, and it was these complaints that form-1
ed the subject of conversation between Frank- 1
lin Pierce and Mr. Sherwood, who bad then
recently returned from Kansas.
We ask our readers to compare this report
ed conversation with Fresideut PD.UCK, with
what has already taken place in regard to Kau
sas. The incursions of the border ruffians,
has made it necessary to misrepresent the ob
jects of the Emigrant Aid Societies. At tl.
dictation of ATIK.TN, the President removed
REEHKR, upon false charges. There is no depth
of duplicity lower than that reached BV PIKIU K
in these Kansas matters, urged on n he has
been by the Sonth. For all this wickedness
the Buchanan party are justly responsible.—
They have formally endorsed his admiuistra
' tion, and their leaders and presses are busy in
, cireulatii ' the infamous excuses and fabrica
tions of FIERCE AND ATCHISON.
