The Next Presidential Election.

The Belfast Free Press INDUCES in some
very sensible calculations in relation to the
next presidential election. The contest will
be between the democratic party, the party Of
Union and the Constitution, on one side, and
the party of sectionalism and dsunion on the
other. As in all former contests, the UNION
will triumph
If the democratic party preserves its nation
al organization every southern state with one
hundred and twenty electoral votes will vote
for its candidate. If no new states are adj
mitted into the Union, the number of electoral
votes in the next election will be two hundred
and ninety-six, of which one hundred and
forty-nine is majority The southern cleo
toral vote amounts to l20 to which add Penn
sylvania 81, New Hampshire 5, and you have
l52, which is more than majority or Penn
sylvania 81, Indiana I3, and you have 160 ;
or add Pennsylvania 81, Illinois III, and you
have 1873; or add Illinois III, Indiana l3,
New Hampshire 5; and you have l49, just a
majority. 1t will thus be seen that the cleo
ton would be carried without either of the
great states of Pennsylvania, Ohio or New
York. We do not present these cases with
the anticipation that the national democratic
party will be reduced to two or three free
states but we wish to demonstrate that even
in such a contingency the sectional party
which is being formed would not succeed
We say therefore that we have faith in the
union of the states because we have faith in
the success Of the democratic party. What
ever may be the result Of the coming elections
in Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania and New
Hampshire, there can be no doubt that they
will in the presidential contest stand by their
integrity as democratic states. There is in
deed as little doubt of the next presidential
vote of Michigan and Iowa. We have also
good reason for calculating upon Maine, New
Jersey and Ohio. " believe that our gov
eminent will remain permanent and that the
Union will be preserved but it can only be
preserved by the success of the democratic
party

~ The Washington Union, with its ac-


customed ability, takes survey Of the polite
al field at this time, and notes particularly the
" fusion = movement, by which all factions
are attempted to be combined into opposition
TO the general government
g Ii is obvious that such combination into
one harmonious body Of opposition would be
exceedingly formidable to the democracy In
stead Of closing our eyes to the danger, we
have felt il our duty 10 hold il up to our demo-
cratic friends as The strongest inducement to
them to resist the insidious efforts being made
to seduce them into new political organizations
The democratic party never exhibits It's real
merits so strongly aud clearly as il does when
assaled by these covert appeals to passion and
prejudice. Such appliances may be successful
10 some extent, aud the danger Of temporary
defeat may thereby be increased but Of the
permanent triumph of an opposition made up
of coalition between men having no national
principles as the bond of union, and hanging
together only in the hope Of securing The spOlls
of victory, we have had no fears. We have
abundant evidence that the great body Of the
democrats o: all the free states are standing
firmly together on the national principles i'm
bodied in the Baltimore platform. The de-
fections from their ranks may, for the time
being, endanger our ascendency in some of the
states where our party has heretofore been tri-
umphant, but we have been taught by past ex-
perence and observation 10 regard such defeats
az uniformly temporary and as leading in due
time to reactions which give more strength and
permanently TO democracy. We concede that
the trial through which our party is now pass
ing is severe-that the elements of opposition
arrayed against it are powerful, and that the
danger in several of the free states is imminent.
We trust that the result may be reached with
ont scenes Of violence and bloodshed which will
starte the public mind. The passions enlisted
in the several contests are of character to ex-
cite fears as To the consequences. Our trust is
in the firm and steady adherence Of the faithful
northern democrats TO their national principles.
If they are overwhelmed their defeat will be
but mumentary. The substantial men Of the
north will soon be taught By the consequences
of such triumphs as factions win, that their on
ly safe reliance is upon the democracy, who
have stood firm and resisted every effort of
passion or of force to destroy their organization.
The reaction will follow, and the final result
will establish democratic principles more firm
ly than ever"
