Rem:likable Coincidences..
lb th e ',Editor of The N.' P. Tribuxe.

Sts: If , Philadelphia Convention . ; S.
candidate for nomination had been brought .
forward. Who was well known to the people,
and Whose claims had been . urged: on the
ground that his education, his character, and
the Course of his life bore a remark Ole rescrn-
blanoti. to those of the tioather of \his- Conn
try," ;such arguments - .would, undoubtedly,
have had conamderable weight with large
portion of the- Convention. No such thing
,was dime, but it have been with a de
gree-of. truth far .exceeding that of any of the
parallel lives of Plutarch. - • .
• The%istory of our country would be search
ed in vain to find two men whose lives have
so many points of resemblance as those of
Washington and Frernnnt.' The great char
acteristics of Washington, even - while a' boy,
were moral rectitude, indomitable persever
ance,:and a certain undercurrent, of enthusi
astr.i ~seldom- . manifested to Others, but none
the less real - and efficient.. Washingt(in was
eminently a Min of action, but also able to
wield the pen 4ith dignity - and- foice.
moat has always been disting ui s hed bf the
same .promptness, decision and energy; while
the Clear, vigorous and . sty le cf. his
writings elicited; immediately after their pub
lication, the admiration arid approval of the
statesmen and - literary..men or'Europe, and,
among - others, pf Alexander von Hinntwidt,
who, by universal consent, standa at;the head
of the scientific world: But it is. coincidences
in outward eircumstances i rather than .re
seniblenccs.in points Of character, which . we.
shalt notice.
'While yet a boy . Washington lust his.fith _ '
er,.lmti was indebted to his • mother for his
early training: So was it. with Fremont. ---•
It was as a member of
,a party of . land spr- .
I veYors, or, astliey would be now designated,
1 engineers, employed in the mountains-and the
forests, that Wa.shingtou.Llaid the foundations
of that practical knowlede and those habits of
accuracy and forethought which dtstinguished
hire - through life. It was also as a member
of:the Corps, of TopograPhical Engineers that 1
Fremont attracted the. attention and gained I
the approbation of the Federal' Government.
Washington was net educated for the "mil ita,
ry.profe.ssion, but the courage and
,ability exx•
hibited by him in his en co Onte ri .with'. the
French and the savages, and his skill in ac
complishing large objects with small means,
indbeed the Continental Congress to tarn to
him, as the people had already done, as the.
fittest leader in the great struggle upon which -
'they were_ about to' enter. -Fremont, too,:
'Was not "graduated" at West Point; but
wheatran;ferred from the civil tolhe military
• service, , he_ immediately. gave evidence of
thole. qualities which-stamp the man born to
lead.: It was ainid the Spaniards and sava
;ges of California that 'Fremont gave evidence
• of those qualities which
the
him; out as
the leader "to whom the people turned With j
such unanithity in the Present crisis. I
• • Washirltonwas in. his forty-fourth year I
when the Continental Congress at Philadel
phia flied upon. him- as 'the leader of the
•Anterietn armies. Fremonl was of the same'
ae,cre, When, 'ai the same [ilia. and ' . within a
month "r 4 th e.same time; a . C;;lnvention of his•
country nter,distinguished for the upright , ness,"
ability, and pstriotisin of its.members, tuned .
.in common with : the people they represented,
i fixed pun : him as their leader - in . the great
I enter" . Of .reStaring, 'to" the Government
1 sornethin Of the purity and morality Which'
r t t.t..
'characterized -it •in the days of *Washington.:

For the Campaign.
Tnt Inisrmartsr RZPUBLICAN from the present
-time'till after, the Presidential electioln will be devo
ted mainly to the promulgation of facts and the dia•
cussion of questions pertaining to the great struggle
now taking place between the Slave Power and - the
Republican Democracy of the country. We shall la
bor to make our paper an efficient campaign Pibeet;'
and we ask such of the friends of 1 the Republican
cause as appreciate theinfluenee of the local press on
the political-action of the people, to aid in securing
to the Iliptibliean a very general circulation in the
county - during the canvass. 1 ,
As there is no Republican paper publislted in either
Wyoming or Sullivan , ounty, both in the Same Rep
resentative district with us, we would suggest to the
aotiva.friends of freedom.in those counties that they
might benefit the cause -by making up lists of Cam
paign subserib'ers for the-Repubtiears..
Republican Associations of the; severe/ . Townships,
by a, little systematic efibrt, mightlaceorn ash much
in this matter. I 1
Tat Rtrunticas will be Iltrnished f the Ist of

The Positioet-0 the Cendidetes.
A Convention met at Cinemnati, June.Bd,
and nominated James Buchanan for Presi
dent. About that • Convention. there were
things noteworthy. All the Southern
States were there fully represented. This
was an unusual occurrence ; 1 . for SOuth Caro
lina,,the home of nullificatiOn and secession,
has seldom consented to be)represented in a
National Convention of any party, because
no party would hitherto coMe fully upon the
South- Carolina
. platform. But , now, the
Democratic party having become a convert
to the South Carolina view of the Slavery
question, Smith Carolina relents,'and conde
scends to be represented 'in a Democratic
Convention. Preston S. Brooks; was One of
the delegates chosen to represent the chival
ry of that State and their human chattels, in
that Convention ; but prudential Motives in
duced his absendc. Notwithstanding this ab
sence of her favorite/son, the State was well
represented, and - her fire-eaters cast their'
votes unanimously for James Buchanan.—
Missouri sent two setwoi delegates to the
Convention—the Bentonitcs, who are inclined
to Free Soilism, and the Border 'Ruffians.
or regular Democracy. -Among thA Bor
der Ruffian delegates, was Stringfellow, who
has made himself inlhmons by aiding in the
outrattes• against the people of Kansas, and
the others were of the same stripe. The
Bentonite* -were expelled, their Free-Soilish
principles •being anti-Democratic, and the
Border Ruffians, who have shown their devo
tion to the party by forcing Slavery into
Kansas at the point of the bowie-knife, were
admitted -in their stead, and voted unani
mously for Buehanan. Virginia, who has so
little objection to "let the tnion slide" that,
she proclaimed'in the Rouse of Repre-senta
tires during the - present session, - by the
mouth_ of one -of her leading' members, Mr.
McMullen—what no Southe t rn member de
nied—" that if you restore the Missouri
Compromise, or repftl the' Fugitive Slave
Law, this union will b r dissolved," - was there
represented, and voted unanimously for Bu
chanan. Alabama,' inl which a recent State
Convention resokred that "Alabama will and
ought to resist, ..thedisrUption of every
tie that binds her to the Union, any act pro
.the introduction of
.'slavery into the,
Territories, or any ad repealing or material
lymodifying the fugitive slave law," was al
so-there represented, and voted unanimously
for Buchanan. In short - the whole Slave
power, which makes every other politieal
question, end; all party ties,lsecondary to the
interests of Slavery, Was there in its strength,.
and, with a throng c.f doughfilce office-fielders'
under this 'Administration, composed the
great' body of the Convent4on. Of the men
•colleeted there,' Mr. Benton said in his recent
speech in St. Louis
I found a garrison '4 . office4adders inside of the
Convention, and a besieging army of the same gen
try. on the outsides .of it. Packed delegates were
there, sent to , betrisy the 'people. - r s igtrisw. delegates
were there,. coining fron.lim States :which could give .
no DemocratiC rote: ; Members of Congress were
there, although forbid by their duties from .being at.
such a place. - A cohort, of oilirse bol*srs froniWash

entire a surrender of -all taanboixt-to party;
But Douglemi tolls us- that he and I Buchanan

,- Do they think 'lw-I[adishonest
when he says the platform reri,%ents his .
principles, and.that heWill viola is his pledge
not to vary from it 1 DQ they tell us that
he was once in flivor of Free, S 4 Principles?
So he,was once a. Federalist; and, though an
officeholder. for forty yearS; was never. elect
ed to any of by the peOpleexcept by Fed.
erfd votes; .but:now; he can ito more Ve
claimed aS a Free- Soiler, than as.a Federal
ist, and in' fact,notaS much, Or while he is
:aeting.as the leader of a party hat' stands in
direct antagonism to Free-Soil sin, he is also
the leader 0 . a party that, in, its tendency to
centeralization, in its encroachment on State
Rights, and.hn its efforts - to build - up an aris
tocracy with greater. priVileges mid immuni
ties than the mass Of the People, possesses •all
the worst 'features that belonad, or were as:
cribed, to the old Federalist party.
Subsequent to the holding,VX the Cincin

1
Whole strength of the South, without regard
to party, to repeal the comp r omise of 1820,
and carry' slavery into the Territory - of Kan
sas and those . lyhig beyond, was the cause of
a counter movement at the :North, by which
a union has been attempt-c.d. (,f all, opposed to
slavery-extension, without reard' to party,
for the purpose of keeping slavery hut ofthe
Territories. . As,the Pro-sl a very movement
at the &lath has absorbed 'both Dertiocrits
anti Whigs, so the Free-5.611 Movement at
the North bits absorbed botl") Democrats and.
.
Whigs. And, while .he pro-slavery party,
though 'they - repUdiate the 4mineiptes, retain
the-name of DemOerai•y, t 4 Free-Soil party
take the name of Republicans, by which the
Wmocratie party waS known in the days of
Jefferson. . As the t:reat teSt question with
the modern Democracy is, - fare you :in favor
of Slavery extension ? so the g reat test ques
tion with ~the Republicans is, are you oppos
ed to Slavery extension ? ;We-fnive. only to'
refer to the platforms to Show .that the two
parties stand diametrically opposed on the
!Slavery queStion; and we have only to refer
Ito every day occurrences' to-prove that the
1 question of Slavery extension is the One great
issue on which the peoplej of this country are
now divided. -

:11le candidates presented are as dissimilar
as the plc forms: BuchOan is an old party
hack, whdiabeen in_of6ce' forty years, and
'though he has _changed i'•oni an old Federal
ist to a modern Detnocrnt, from an opponent
of slave p... extension to.the eit i Osen represcnt
ative of. sloyery extension, hiS conversions
seem to have been always • inil4 , ..ed' -by ;the
hope of political preferment. : ' •
Fiemoitt -is a young ; man fresh from the ,
ranks of the people—One rho ,has dared
much, endured much, accomplished much
for his country. With the history of the ac-,1
quisition of California, and its, subsequent ad- 1
mission as a Free State, his name will ever t
be identified. Ills perilous adventures in,}
exploring the . wild regions .of the Rocky
Mountains will never be forgotten. But the
peCuliar correctness of judgment, inflexibility
of - will, and promptness of execution that
have ever distinguished him, are among the
qualifiCations that ri c ommend him as pecu
liarly the man , for the present crisis. On
the Free Soft question he is sound. - He was
in favor of :making California a Free State,
and. he is in favor of Making Kansas a Free'
State. He -is Opposed to the extensiok of
Slavery another foot ; on this continent. He
has always been a Democrat in polities.—
But he belongs to tlatt branch of the Demo-
cratic party that .hare maintained the integ-,
rity of their principles, and refused 10, be,
come the propagandists of Slavery. • As op : ,
position' to
,Slavery s
extension, which wa
once the doctrineof the bemocratic partY of
