Frauds IN PennsvIvaniR.

A private despatch received from Philadel-
phia last night states that the estimated num-
Der offraudulent votes introduced by the efforts,
the money, the bribery, the trickery, and gen.
eral rascality of the sham Democrats is from
twenty to forty thousand There is no doubt,
from facts which have already transpired, that
more than foe hundred thousand dollars were
expended by the sham Democrats in the Penn
sylVania election 1t was the last expiring
effort of the "squatter sovereigns." Our reli-
able friends in Philadelphia assure US that,
were the battle to be fought over again next
week, they would give 80, 900 majority for the
Union ticket and that Buchanan will lose
Pennsylvania on the 4th Of November by from
forty to sixty thousand votes
Hundreds Of men were on the fence who
will now take their positions Hundreds and
thousands of business men voted for the Dem
ocratic State candidates, who will vote for Fill
more, and the reason is assigned thus The
merchants and manufacturers who deal with
the South, were not willing to show any par.

ct, though formed long before Fremont was
nominated; whilst no such imputation could
be made on them for supporting Fillmore in
November, as he is quite as much if not more
respected and confded in by the South than
Mr.. Buchanan. It is believed that Fillmore
will carry the city and county of Philadelphia
by five thousand majority.

has deemed 1t just and honorable, a. well as
prudent and proper In every sense, 70 stand
aloof from all alliances, and leave il 10 the
people, Of all political classes, to decide for
themselves, whether they will support him rs
their .JTrst choice, or their second choice, or
oppose him throughout II is our opinion,
from our knowledge Of the man, that he cares
a thousand times less for the Presidency, than
he cares for a fair, just, and conservative adj
minisration Of the government, and we are
just as confident that he win not change his
present position, in any respect, to gain the
Presidency, by any compromise Of principle
Republicans and Democrats = Northerners
and observation-disclosures and Secession
ists-all classes Of ultraists and all classes Of
conservatives and Union men, can support Mr.
Fillmore, if they think proper to do 80 but he
will not compromise those principles on which
he has erected his platform, for the sake Of the
Presidency. The Compromise measures Of
1850 are the fruits Of those principles, and fur
nish the evidence of what they are. The North
and the South bnO,O that he is opposed to the
ty." They both know that whilst he regarded
the repeal Of the Missouri Compromise an I'M
wise and an imprudent measure, he is opposed
to the agitation of the questions which its res
toration would involve.
They both knOsO, that he approved the Ter
ritorial acts Of Utah and New Mexico, which
embrace the only safe and conservative doc
trines on the question Of the right of the citi-
zens Of the Territories to form and mould their
own domestic institutions. They both know
that ne signed and executed the Fugitive Slave
law, which was passed in obedience to the re
quirements Of the Federal Constitution. They
both know that, as President of the United
States, he faithfully discharged his duty to all
sections of the country, and in this, he gave
an earnest Of the course he viii again pursue,
if honored with the suffrages of the American
people. Is not such man worthy Of the con-
fidence Of all men, North and South, who de-
sire to see the constitution respected, and the
Union perpetuated?

TO-day's Reports.

The returns which have come in to-day,
change the figures somewhat ss to the state
Of the polls in Pennsylvania, but in our opin-
ion, the State has gone for the Union ticket
by small majority. Even were it conceded
that the sham Democrats have carried the
State by two or three or even five thousand,
it would be loss to them Of thousands on
last years vote, and would only show to what
extent hakfG million Of dollars laid out in
bribery and corrupt yote-buying, with the aid
Of lying documents sent broadcast over the
State, and the congregation of fifty stump ora
tors from other States, including Senator'S and
Representatives in Congress, can affect the
credulous and honest yeOmanry Of Pennsylva-
nial But we still believe the Union ticket has
prevailed.

More Fraud.

We learn that the wire-pullers Of the Wash
ington Union informed gentleman whom
they considered sham Democrat, that Penn
sylvania had gone against them, but they had
sent off TO the South the returns which were
favorable to them, to make the first impression
upon the people, and then, when the later
news, contradicting these favorable dispatches,
should go South, their sham Democratic ora
tors and presses could contradict them, and
swear that the first dispatches were the true
and reliable dispatches That is the way they
auH the South!
