and fearless resistance to The reasonable schemes Of the

organ of the State That resistance has assumed the
attitude of offensive upon the fusionists, and with
prospect of triumphant The Advertiser
with the candidate for governor, Knsley 5. Bingham
nominated by the coalitionists and single blow de-
prves him of all chance for the support of honest
We curious how the abolition leaders will meet
the exposure which their sandardbeaer in Michigan is
subjected. When the reader has perused the following
from the Advertiser of the Gath instant he will be pre-
pared appreciate the character of the leaders of the
republican party organizing in the northern States:

guage of the leading advocates If they choose place the
merits of the ticket upon this ground and before honest

The letter written the clerk of Livingston
when Mr.. b. less partisan than he is Had the
clerk been base enough have followed the advice he would
have been guilty of State prison offence and would
been candidate for citizenship at jackson The offence
having been committed the candidate of the Republican
party for the high Office of governor of noble State
posed of honest and viruous people, is not and will
be, less guilty of desiring it.
Have we hiss Have the people of Michigan no

na which the people have been accustomed lock the
evidence of adudcaed rights liable to be aisied when
it may suit the purposes of aspiring demagogue
Are the who suggest such base for party purposes
safe in the administration Of aar2 Is the
publican ticket be carried by muatng official
papers, thus deraudng honest people out of their
rightfu suage2 viii the people of Michigan trust
with official patronage who would thus election
Is he capable Is he honer Is he faithful to the

presume other champions of the ticket headed by Mi.
Bingham may pronounce the above letter fraud bogus

strike down and traae upon the constitution, by the aid
crime, and raudueny smugge illegal foreign into
the ballot boxes to defeat the wishes of American citizens
will support under any circumstances though

We have not poor opinion of the people Of ichi
gan believe they would lend their aid such ticket

fold the banner of the whg party the democratic party
the republican, and receive the endorsement of regular
nomination. "
