PHILADELPHIA, December g. 1856
BUCHANAN. BRECKENRIDGE AND FREE KANSAS"
Mr.. Editor: This was the heading to the call
for the buchanan meetings at Coudersport Pot,
ter county. and various other counties in This
state, before the last election. One of tho oriri
nal posters for one of their meetings | have this
day transmitted to United States senator at
Washington City. Similar plaoards were used
and circulated in parts of Indiana, Illinois, Ohio
and New Jersey: and these receptions actually
turned the election in three of those states
The frauds in voting great as they were. could
not have accomplished the purpose. From these
facts it appears the President elect is such by
fraud and deception. In 1914 the friends of Polk
and Dallas in Pennsy lvania used and circulated
piaoards for calls Of their meeting with the cap
t'on O" Dallas, and the Tariff of 1912"
which together with the content of the TX ano
Letter. had wonderful effect in this state.

Lawrence naturally recalls many anecdotes
OF his life. and one of CERTAIN remarkable,
Pocket-book that belonged 10 him deserve,
to be repeated. We will try to relate the
tact in the way it was told by Father TAYLOR
OF Boston. On the occasion of an annver,ar,
celebration IN that city, large number OF
orthodox clergymen were seated on the Plat
form and among them was the well known
preacher to the scamen. A remark had h..,

times grew selfish, and every time he looked
to his money he wanted to be reminded Of
the great principles OF the Gospel, by winch
he ought to hold and use his worldly goods
and therefore he kept money in each of those
folds OF his pocket book for all good us.s
which Divine Providence might suggest
Now, Mr. Chairman, wha. are YOU GOING to
do with a man who carries such a book a.
that in his pocket? DO you mean to send
HIM to hell? DO YOU think that the devil
and his angels would permit man with
principles like these to enter his dolninions
