pennsylvania is safe, and hey ond the posi-
blilty of loss. trust not to nv own wishes
and feelings for this opinion, but rely upon
the admissions OF our enemy. Never, | be-

among its own members.
we stand sure upon the popularity of Gen.

principles. If the rest ofthe State stand firm
to the relative vote of 1885, Allegheny coun-

Chester excepted) will increase its anti Van

counties the increase will be immense. In
Washington, instead of 900, we will have
1000 majority. The candid Van Buren, men
