New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1856-09-10


Chester, Lancaster Delaware, Dauphin, Lebanon,
Bucks, Schuykill, Lehigh, Perry, Centre, Hunting
don, Union, Luzerne, Wyoming and Pike, will
do at least as well for Fremont a. they have ever
done for Wing President, leaving but Phlladel-
Phia, York, Montgomery, Northampton, Monroe
Northumberland, Lycoming, and perhaps a re"
more central couhtes in which losses to Fremont,
through the division Of votes to Fillmore are TO DO
apprehended. But, as every day makes palmer the
fact that the only two candidates really running are
Fremont and Buchanan, the number OF those dis
posed to throw away their suffrages will steadily
and inevitably diminish. Stubborness and blind
spite will 90 great way toward impelling man to
bite his own nose off if the act is to be done on the
spur of the moments but, where weeks are neces'
sarily afforded for meditation and reflection, such
result is rarely to be anticipated. We do not mean
that all those now supporting Fillmore will vote for
Fremont; some of them prefer Buchanan, and VIII
vote for him; but those who earnestly desire
ingly, while those Of contrary tendencies will evnce
them, leaving but amere skeleton OF party cling
ing to Fillmore.
As we have already remarked with regard to the
North and West the preponderance OF talent IN
Eastern Pennsylvania is decidedly on the side OF
Fremont Thaddeus Stevens, the ablest canvasser
in the State, is heartily for him; 80 is Ex-senator
James Cooper, who has for some time stood a!ooi
from politics, but now resumes his armor, and
will be felt in the result so is ex-senator Simon
Cameron, who wields probably a more extensive
personal influence than any other of the old Jack
son Democracy. Gov. Pollock, Secretary Curtin,
Charles Gibbons, and the great body of the Wing
leaders in the past, are for Fremont; while Judge
Kelley Of Philadelphia, Mr.. Cummings of The Eren-
ing Bulletin, and it is said Henry Horn, VIM. j.
Duane, and other eminent and popular Democrats
of the Jackson era, are on the same side. Lt.-Gov.
Roberts of Kansas, formerly Democratic member
Of the Pennsylyani Senate, has done noble work
in unfolding the wrongs of Kansas to the sstonlshed
gaze of his old compeers, who had been kept Ut
tery in the dark concerning them by their political
journals. 1t only needs the well-known voice Of
Gov. Reeder to be heard through the Delaware
valley to render the circle complete.
What is most needed in Pennsylvania is unity of

the Free-State cause Hitherto the Oraces of d.
verse parties cliques, they still stand apart from
each other and nullify their proper influence by
mutual jealousies and groundless dstrust. If a
score of them would meet and resolve to sacrifice
all past differences on the altar of common devO-
ton to Freedom and Humanity, the success of the
Fremont Electors would no longer be doubtful.
The State Election will take place on Tuesday,
the 14th Of OctOber-three weeks before the Presi-
dential-and we would press on our friends the ne
cessity Of acting in the spirit the Greek maxim
Always treat your enemies so that they can with
I" out difficulty become your friends Where you
can elect Member Of Congress or Of the Legisa-
ture whose heart is right the great issue of Free
Kansas do not permit the fact that he is called an
American to defeat him. Act so as silently to
shame the professed Free-State men who may
mediate the squandering of their votes for Presi-
deHt on candidate who stands no chance. DO in
October as you will wish to be done by in Novem-
ber and the result, we are confident, will justify
and reward your liberalty.
