WASHINGTON, Monday July %, 1856.
Talk of " shrieks for Freedom" send yo1 q
pamphlet just got up here BY the Buchanisrs,
which might well be called "a Howl for Slavery"
Look at its startling title page If il had yaier
kirer it would be grand addition to the "bood
and thunder literature of the day. "The fearful
I" issue to be decided in November next" "Shal
",he Constitution and the Union stand or fall :"
"The ss sctional Candidate " "Advocates Of diso-
lution~ "Our Constitution (" "Our Union !"
"Our destiny" and other terrible shibboetbs are
set forth on the titepage in all the array OF large
capitals exclamation points, bad paper, aud worse
print 1t is regular howl of despair. The ad-
vocates of ten.ceLt Jimmy" are getting frantic
New-York, New England, Ohio, and the most Of
,te Western States are already given up. aud all
efforts are concentrated now to secure Pelnsyi-
yslia, Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri In
discipline, generaship, and organization they are
strong; but 10 all the elements of life, enthusiasm
and real patriotism, the Republicans are ahead out
Of eight. The enemy must not be dcspised.
We must remember there are q vast
mapy neiehborhoods, districts and cottages,
where TIE TRIDUNE and other Fremont
papers are never seen. This battle,
ike every other sharply contested one, is to be
fought On small AREA. What matters is though
New.Ycrk give 20 600 majority for Fremont Ohio
aId one or two other States give majority of t,
votes, ard throw the scale the side of Slavery
II is clear that we are lot sufficiently organized to
meet oil doubtful districts. believe thoroughly,
if we knew where the people were who needed
them, that 50, 600 extra copies OF THE NEW YORK
TRIBUNE, Herald sud Erening Post would put tho
election past al doubt. Why is there not q Cen.
tral Corresponding Comnttee at New York. TO
get names and addresses, and send off documents
to the localities that need them mOstl Here at
Wa,hiLgt0n, there are clubs Of clerks constantly
engaged in sending eff Buchanan documents AID
obtaining ames of per,ons and places from Post
Dss,ers AID otters; and though It would be low
order Of intellect that would be bamboozled by
such stuff as the pamphlet send you, stil every
vote counts, whether cast by ignorant noodle or
en- intelligent man.
L was talking last evening with q leading Bu.
chaDan man, who holds an office here. Says be,
II see how il is; We made a grand mistake in
nominating him. There is neither enthusiasm
DOR confidence. At the North they don't want
BuchaLsn at all, for he agrees with the Pro-
Slavery men, ard tries to please the South; at
the South they have no confidence 10 him, for
fear he WILL If elected try to please the largest
number, ard 20 over to the North man that
plays false TO his own section will be ready TO
tuin traitor TO bis new allies u,t as soon "a he
gets an opportunity. We nigh better have had
Pierce Douglas or TOombs for then tBe South
would have been cordial and uuited" This was
Substantially the plea put forth. and il was sad in
sorrcw and dependency. Here it ia understood
