N'Titztunlihe :unmindful: of what is due to the truth, it:NO*4dt° aelpow ~ ledge the part which the Governor -and L beaas of Depart ments, lititydrillouinfort and the city, authori-, ties, with the people generally at Harrisburg, took in - the • rcception and" 'welcome of the Pentizivania :Reserve' Corp's; - yesterday. It was a, reception in all respects worthy of the Corps and the city: It was spontaneous and sincertn: byation such as only a, grateful people' cO i nlkpffer to their brave defenders.— The. Committee of Arrangements who had the affaiiin charge, deserve special acknowl edgments., scarcely "time to organize, they workedmight and flay; every member as it *ere constituting a sub-committee, each of whom labored zealously for the success.of the whole. movement. The result proves what concert of .aetion can do, when there is a de termination to carry out '''any plan. In this instance our .people did themselves i finite credit by thonoringthe remnant of the Reserve Corps. And welittve no doubt whatever, that among the eiciting and - stirring recollections of the rendezvousing of troops at this post, the raemoyery of the reception of the Reserve Coriis evet be pleasing, and gratifying to all concerned.

Nearly every loyal State,. except New ~T.ersey, vote heavily for the Union ticket. Fremont, if in sander4tigh to run as an outside candidate, could not possibly obtain more than 300,000 votes.; on the contrary,, his poll cannot, in all probability, reach one-third of that num ber. But, conceding hire3oo;ooo'votes, Lin coln would even then have Over 300,000 plu rality on the popular vote,, as well as the elec torek, 4franes of two-thirds of the loya states... The Democrats and copperheads do notes peeit'to catty the electiOn„but they hope, with the aid;Of Fremont, to preient Lincoln's ie.- election by the people. l .,,autsuppose they do this, 'what can Thor hope to accomplish?
