The Popular Results OF tho Recent Election
and their Bearings.

From the returns actually received, and with
the deficiencies yet to come in, the aggregate
popular vote of the Union in the late Presidential
election win not be less than 100000. Includ-
ing the vote which was not cast in the Southern
States, lin the most of which the election seemed
to have gone by default) we have no doubt
that the available vote of the Union to-day is
fully up to the mark of four millions We pre-
sent the following tables to our readers, as our
summary of the latest retarns:-

the strongest proofs against EoutAern disunion
seceesioniste and against Northern abolition dis
organizers, Of the stability and security of the
Union. The intense niggerim Of the Southern
secession leaders Of the democracy and the Pierce
administration leaves that party in a popular mi
nority Of nearly 100000 in the Union-the bare
suspicion, on the other hand, that Fremont was
the candidate of the abolition disunionists ex-
cluded him lin violation of the constitution, we
admit, but it still excluded him) from the South.
These facts show that while the Presidential can
didate must be clear Of Southern nigger-driving
disunionim to run at all in the North, he must
be equally free from abolitionim or the suspi-
cion of abolition affiliations to be permitted to
show his face in the South.
In more serious view, we dare say that while
only four-ffths Of the vote for Buchanan
was good clean Union vote, at least
nineteen-twentieths Of the vote for Fremont
was the vote Of firm adherents of the Union
against all abolition and secession designs to
break it up. Furthermore, notwith standing all
be silly mummeries and ridiculous bigotry and
the rough scrutf Of Know Nothingism, we venture
the declaration that the entire vote cast for Fill
more (800,O0O) North and South, was vote of
staunch devotees Of the Union against all dis
turbers Of either section In the three parties the
only disunion element of any consequence is that
Southern secession and Southern confederacy ele-
ment of the democratic party.
Thus, we see in these election results, as against
the party representing the Pierce administration,
and as against Southern niger drivers and
Northern niger worshippers, and as against the
silly bigotries of Know Nothingism, the key to
the true policy for an overwhelming compact
Union opposition party in 1860. Above all, the
results of the late election, against the disorgan
zers of all parties, establish the perfect security
of the Union.

Frsmoat's Letter o. Acceptance.

NV YoRR, July 9.--Col. Fremont's let.
ter Of acceptance 10 published. He says:
"Gentlemen-You call me to a high res
possibility BY placing me at the bead Of q
great movement Of the people Of the Uni.
ted States, who, without regard 10 party diff
ferences, are meeting in a common effort TO
bring back the action of the Federal Gov.
ernmen to the principles Of Washington
and Jefferson.
"Comprehending the magnitude of the
trust which they have declared themselves
willing TO place in my hands, and deeply
sensible oil THE honor which their universal
confidence in this threatening position of
public affairs implies, I feel that cannot
better respond TO them than by a sincere
declaration, that in the event Of my election
to the Presidency, I should enter upon the
execution of ito duties with q single.heart-
ed determination to promote the good of the
whole country and TO direct solely to the
end all the power Of Government, irrespec.
tive Of party issue and regardless of section.

"The declaration Of principles embodied
in the resolves of your Convention, express
sentiments in which I have been educated
and which has been ripened into conviction
BY personal observations and experience.
With this declaration and ayowal, I think
IT necessary to revert to only two of the
subjects embraced in the resolutions, and
to those only because events have sur
rounded them with grave and critical cir
cumstances, and given to them special i'm
p%ortance."
He then gives his recurrence to the views
of the Convention, deprecating the foreign
policy TO which 1t adverts, and advocates an
open and firm policy in our foreign relations,
and in regard ito slavery, goes strongly for
the admission of Kansss as a Free state,
add thereby checking the aims OF the
South for securing the unlimited extension
of the institution.
HE concludes AZ follows: Trusting that
have a heart capable of comprehending
our whole country with its varied interests,
and confident that patriotism exists in ali
parts OF the Union, | accept the nomination
of your Convention in the hope that I may
be able to serve usefully in a cause which /
consider the cause of constitution freedom"

LATRgT FROM KANSAS.

Al a
A citizen Of Kansas who left Topeka on

called OF us yesterday. He says that the
Free State Legislature was prevented from
assembling on the 4th inst, pursuant 10 i'd
tournament, by the u. 8. troops under Col.
Sumnsr. He told the people that he had
positive orders from President Pierce to ar
rest and break up the Legislature II the
members attempted to convene, that his OF
ders must be enforced. He was also under
orders from the Executive to dispense, dis
arm and arrest any gathering Of FREQ State
people that might 0ssemble to celebrate the 4kA
Of July! He was al the head Of 400 U. b.
Dragons, and an equal number Of infant
~ and artillerists.
The result was that the members Of the
Free State Legislature were unable to
meet. II was deemed best to succumb to
the United States Army, postpone the as
sembling, and await the verdict Of the Anne
rican people at the polls next November
Had the U. 8. drsgoons not interiered, the

correspondent of the Missouri Democrat
that Gov. Price had sent IL cannon and %

letter says: "No arms has been given out

Not a single gun or musket has ever been
sent to Atehison or Stringfeliow, but on
the contrary when applied to for arms BY
