Here are ten of them; but it will be observed
that the Seward wing ticket ia also the ticket
Of the temperance party, and Of the Saratoga
coalition, and that the wing candidate for Go
vernon is also the nominee of the free demo-
cracy or free sellers proper, the Saratoga-Au-
burn seceders, and the Carson league. To pre-
sent the matter in q tabular form, Myron II.
Clark is supported by the following heteroge-
neous but formidable coalition Of odds and
ends:-
THE CLARK COALITION
/. The Seward free soil and sectional wings.
Q The Saratoga anti slavery tusionsts of all parties
g. The free sellers proper, of the Van Buren, and Buf
fslo fchsoi.
4. The state Temperance or Maine law alliance.
The ultra Maine law party Of the Carson League.
g. The women's rights
To oppose this tremendous conglomerate or
ganization, Judge Bronson stands forward with
one-half the democratic party, and Governor
Seymour with the other half, while the Know
Nothings have flung out upon the northwest
wind the banner of Ullman and Scroggs.
twill further be Observed by looking over
the above schedule Of ten State tickets that
they are practically reduced to four-the Bron-
son ticket, the Seymour ticket, the Clark
ticket land the Ullman ticket.
All the rest are leather and prunella.
The Seward organs are struggling to drown
all minor issues in tremendous howl
against the Nebraska bill and in favor of the
prohibitory liquor bill. But the I" hue and
cry" appears to be very generally disregarded
by that class Of conservative wings known
as the silver grays. True, these silver grays
are opposed to the Nebraska bill, and have
steadily denounced it, in season and out of
season, as great outrage upon the North.
But there they desired to stop; and to give
them their due, they have resisted the eff
forts Of the Seward majority and the Seward
candidate to rope them into the common cause
of abolitionism with a degree of pluck and
courage which was hardly to have been ex-
pected.
Now what are the silver grays to do?
Who are they to fall back upon? They
are opposed to the Nebraska bill, and they
cannot, therefore, very conveniently support
either Bronson or Seymour, each Of whom
inclines more or less to the fundamental
doctrine Of "squatter sovereignty" as estab-
lished in the repeal Of the Missouri compro-
mise. But when the alternative is between
either of those candidates, and q reasonable
coalition having for its main object an abolition
crusade against the South, in the face Of all the
hazards Of secession, dsunion and civil war,
we should think the only question would be
how, and from what point, can they strike this
seditious coalition most effectively?
We submit this proposition to the Judgment
Of the silver grays themselves. They have no
other course left them now than the most de-
basing humiliation to the Seward coalition, or
active, united and manly resistance to its
designs. National wings, which course will
you pursuef If active, open, decided opposi-
ton to Seward and his co-agitators, there is no
time to be lost. The election takes place on
the 9TH of November-in less than two weeks,
from this time-and the domestic peace of the
Union depends on its results. Think of this
and be active. Time is short
