state Election to be Contested.

The Republican State Committee have is
sued an address to the people declaring their
determination to contest the election of Gov.
Willard on the ground of the tremendous
frauds they allege to have been committed at
the Polls. The address says:
These spurious and illegal votes, by which
Old Linesm achieved a temporary triumph,
are believed to reach near TWENTY THOUSAND
! in number, and have been given by men whose
names do not appear upon your tax lists, who
contribute nothing to the great interests of the
country, and who have neither a habltatlon
nor name among you as citizens. So as
founding is this fraud, so glazing this cOrrup-
ton, that the Republican party have resolved
to contest the validity Of the election Of the
Governor and the entire State Ticket before
the ensuing Legislature.
Fhe returns in the Office of the Secretary OF
State, so far as received, show the unprece-
dented fact, that in four-fifths of the State,
| " lille the Republican vote has increased twelve
thouSand over their poll of 1854, the Old Line
vote has been thus fraudulently increased
ta0e11t eiqbt thousand over its aggregate of that
year. So in the Ninth and Eleventh Congress
sonal Districts, where the vote has been as
certained, it has increased, in EACH about SIX
thousand, which would indicate that IN two
years the population of the State has increased
more than quarter of a millionl Every cit
izen knows that such is not, and cannot be the
fact.
The result therefore of all our examinations
and information is such as to confirm US in
the belief, that, if the polls were purged Of
fraudulent votes, our entire State ticket would
this day be successful by majority of more
than ten thousand.
If the voice of the lawful voters has been
drowned by a flood of spurious votes, no exer-
tons should be spared to bring the violators
of the law to punishment, and to condem their
suberners to public execration. We know
not what has been done in other parts of the
State, but we repeat, the farther we have en-
quired, the more we are convinced tlat no
frauds to any great extent were perpetrated
or attempted, in the counties on the Ohio
1t is good evidence of the integrity of the
party leaders, and the correctness of public
sentiment, on the Southern Dor lers of the state
made, by either party. The charges, il
true, indicate disreputable and degenerate State
of morals whenever perpetrated, and are a
reflection upon the character of the State and
people; and should not be lightly made by the
authorised leaders Of great party. 1t appears
incredible that in frauds of such magnitude, in
volving the guilt and completely of thousands
of men, thereare so few instances of detection
and arrest. We see no where any notices of ar
rests or prosecutions. To annul the election
; the charges must be sustained by proofs o
Specific cases.

An uniustifable Imposition

The Republican papers of Pennsylvania
publish an address to the peoplesof the state,
accompanied|by what they designatea Union
Electoral Ticket" They open their address
with the following sentence:
1.-THE undersigned members of the Republican the
Fillmore and Donelson and The North American Exc
cutve Committees have agreed npon and now present
to the peaple of PenDsyyan Union Electoral IIckes
formed on the basis recommended by the Union state
Central Committee
And closes with the following:
''We are happy to that entire ur aniIlity
existed in the proceedings of the committees and no
doubt is entertained that the result from common efforts
to secure The adoption of the Union FL etoral Tickets
citizen of Pennsyvans, who honestly hostile to the
Cincinnati Platform and the election of James Buchan-
an to the Presidency"
These statements are made in the face Of
the published Official proceeding of the State
Fillmore committee to whom the proposition
for fusion was made by the Republican
Leaders; that committee, in answer to the
Republican oyertures, passed the following
resolution.
ResoIoed That decline to accept either of the pro-
position of the Republican, State Committee satisfied
that the electoral ticket already in the I'D is only
one on which all oppo ed to Mr. Buchanan success

on aud TO the defeat, under any and
of his election.
During the discussion of the subject by the
Fillmore Committee, an amendment to the
above resolution was offered, that eff the
friends Of Fremont will support the Ameri
''can Electoral ticket we are willing that the
said electoral ticket may cast the electoral
vote of the State for Fremont, in case it will
defeat Buchanan, and will not elect Fillmore
which amendment was rejected and the orig
inal resolution passed with only t1oo dissent
ing voices in a committee of % The only eE
feet of the imposition will be to subserve the
! intesests of Mr. Buchanan, with whose friend,
the Republicans seem now disposed to ally
themselves Many Rogue has escaped, I'M

0ErGov. Speagne, of Rhode Island, the
most extensive cotton manufacturer and calico
printer in the Union died at Providence on
Saturday last. He was formerly U. S. Sena-
tor, and was one of the firm OF A. and A.
Speagne, whose prints have covered more
fair forms in this country than the products
of any other printing mills in the world =
Spragnes print were equal to currency in any
part Of the Union. The Governor was the
last survivor Of the old family who have accu-
INFLATED vast fortune by economy, enterprise
and industry. The foundation of their success
was laid by their father, an uneducated farmer
who, without experience or knowledge of the
business, bought print works, in a period OF
manufacturing depression, at sheriff's sale, for
a little more than he subsequently sold the
dye stulfs, found in the concern, brought him.
From this fortunate operation, began the for
tunes of the house that have since accumulate
ed millians.

65-For months we have not been called
upon to record single robbery, murder or
even fight. Our streets at nights are I'M
disturbed by watchmen, because there seems
to be nobody to watch. The police records
are spotless. Not an assault and battery or
even case of "wlfe- beating" to while away
the time of the constables and magistrates
who dispairingly believe that their "occupa-
tons gone" But seriously we congratulate
our citizens upon the present state of affairs,
and challenge any town in the West of equal
size to beat our steady habits" The subject
of clock up,n- has agitated our city fathers
for some time, but we are at a loss to know
who would be locked up" unless now and
then poor wretch, who would gladly avail
himself of its shelter for the night. Years ago
when Evansville had not reached one half its
present size, fights, ARRAYS and robberes were
much more frequent than at present.

Southern Treason,

Cow Wise is putting the State Of Virginia in a
state ofarmed defence, and there are more pre-
parations of war-like nature going on, than
Virginia exhibited in 1914, when her soil was
threatened and actually desecrated by the
march of a foreign enemy. Gov Wise has
sent the members Of his staff over the State
and to the North ''to prepare for the necessary
munitions Of war, and more thorough exam
----- ! r..>~.ar &c 10
State" He is determined he says, to be ready
for the worst. Some weeks since Gov. Wise
invited convention of the Governors of the
Southern States to meet with him at Raleigh
for the purpose of consultation as to what
course the South should adopt in the event of
the election of j G. Fremont to the Presiden-
cy. They have, it seems, responded to his APP
peal, singularly reasonable and without pre-
cedent as it is.
Mr.. Wise left Richmond on Saturday last to
be present at this convention Of dark spirits at
Raleigh. The treason of the Hartford Con-
venton will in all future history appear an in
nocent and venal affair, compared with this
infamous conclave of conspiators against the
constitution and Union. If anything in the
range of possible events, could excite in us
wish for the success Of the Republican ticket
it would be to test the designs and purposes
of these traitors and exhibit their folly and
depravity to the world and fix upon them for
future time, the excavations of the world. But
events-perhaps fortunately for the country
will render the dark plot wretched and ri
diculous fizzle, exhibiting the wickedness and
folly of the design only. The erratic and ex-
travagant course of Gov. Wise, has led ration
al men to believe he was affected with lunacy;
the citizens of his State seem to give no re-
Spouse to the sentiments and doings of their
Governor;-and it is not credible that the SEN
sible, discrete men who preside over the slave
States will assemble in treasonables council,
and be led in their elaboration by such IA
natical lunatic. If they do assemble, we hope
they may have a second Dwight, for Secretary
who will publish the record of their treason
to the country.
