Great Fdir--Nep Play by Lieut.. Mayne Reid
The campaign IN Pennsylvania is neck and neck,
and each of the two great parties shares some
thing in the apprehensions of defeat, and in the
confidence of s,ccess. Every man that can WORK
the stump Is TO be put into requisition, on both
sides. The interior, the western border the
western margin, and the southern vine OF the State,
are 10 be convassed over again. Old Berks is to
be made to beat Lancaster, and Lancaster, the
wings declare, unjust hold her newly acquired
ascendancy, or the State is lost.
Both parties touch the free soilers very lightly
and only to persuade them Of the advantages OF 60
ing for Cass or Taylor. We had conversation
with some OF the free sollers this morning, and
while they generally appear to be ignorant or dvI-
ded IN opinion as 10 the effect OF their ticket In the
November election, the editor of the Repu6iic the
tree soil organ for the State, thus dlvuges his
opinions =

Of the freemen who care nothing for names men in
their determination to check the aggressons Of the
slave power He elected himself by his hearty advo-
cacy Of the Wilmot proviso. The whig Congressmen
and the whg elected to the State Lee
gisature did the same thing The loss of all that the
party gained by this course will put Taylorism at
heavy discount on the 7th Of November We cannot
cay how much old Rough and Ready must lose by
being 20 excessively smooth and unready the ques-
ton of slavery extension but feel that will cot
him the Votes Of Ohio and Pennsy lvania.
lsthere any free soil man timber in his principles
as to bend from his uprghtness the support OF an
unpedged saveholder for the Presidency in the crisis
OF his oountrys fortunes! Is there any ore 10 sly as
to dishonor himself for nothing!
We have 1t already charged, that the free soil men
sold in Northern Ohio 10 the Cass party
may expect to prove conspiracy TO the
purpose In Wilmot's district. and wouldn't be much
surprised to hear that Van Buren, himself going for
the old bunker ticket in New ork. But would ad.
vife our ole friends to tell lies about us than
are absolutely necessary, because the overplus a,
least. will be wasted to no purpose
So much for free soil at this point. We shall,
prehaps. learn more at Pittsburgh, tor which point
we shall leave IN the morning, via Harrisburg.
Gov. Johnston and suite advertised TO at
tend the Chestnut tonight, to witness the opera of
LUCIA dl LammeImoor. The wings are exceed
