PHILADELPHIA, Sept.'
In a former letter to the Rahostrout, I
called attention :to the:_ftict that no states in
which elections hid been held during 18 . 63,1
had gone Democratic. Since then Vermont,
Kentucky and' California have declared
against the copperheads, by astounding na
joritics, nor is it likely the ,Democrats hill
fare any better in theelections yet to balkeld.
In 'the fall of 1862, under the impreision that
they were honestly in favor of the Govbrn
nient, the Republicani - made no vigorousl op
. position against them, and besides cartiing
Pennsylvania, they elected Seymour Goirer•-•
nor of Ikew York, by a majority, in the-tate
less than ho received in the Five, Points- of
• New York city. These results emboldened
• them to take decided ground against thq ad
ministration, and the war, and they have
this driven from their • party many , p+mi
neat men who acted with them last' 11'01.
John Van Buren and James T. Brady of
New York, who contributed largely to Oey
inoues suecesv abandoned him as soon as he
displayed his• true colors; and illiistrious
_names can be given, in our own city and
State, who followed their example. ' As all
-the Democratic State Conventions of thiS
year have adopted-the Copperhead plc
o_rm,
-they will probably be convinced beforia the
close of the year, if they are not already, that
practically, the movement has been bad
• speculation.
Both parties have made their, leghilative
:nominations in all _the city districts.l The
