Whore Is tha nTnnev3

The telegraph sends US the following despatch
from st. Louis, under date of October q:
Messrs Wimberly, Preston, and Cloves. Kan
sas sufferers, having applied to the committee an.
pointed some time since to raise money for the
destitute OF Kansas, and been refused relief, pub
lish card in the Democrat this morning calling
for information respecting the disposition of the
funds collected by the committee. These gentle
men arc all free State men,
We have frequently expressed our belief that
the large amounts raised at the North, ostensibly
for the relief Of the people Of Kansas were, in re-
atty, employed in electioneering for Fremont and
in suhsidising the Democratic press of the free
States. Every day confirms tho correctness Of
this opinion; and we are rejoiced to learn that the
suffering men Of Kansas have at last arrived at the
same conclusion. 1t will be found, if investigated,
another Slievegammon affair, devised and execu.
ted by the same political swindlers.

PennsYIvanin.

In MAJ Oh last an American Convention assem-
bed at Harrisburg to nominate State officers.
Fillmore was the only Presidential candidate then
before the people. This Convention contained a
small Republican faction, who were anxious to get
up a compromise ticket. After some discussion,
it was agreed TO form a combination against the
Democratic party--a combination which should
embrace the entire opposition strength Only
three offices were to be filed, and they we're di-
vided one to each party Of the opposition, as fol-
lows: Thomas E. Cochran, old.line Wing, was
nominated for Canal Commissioner Darwin Phelps,
American, for Auditor General; and Bart Laporte,
Republican, for Surveyor General This was termed
the Union ticket, and, after it was fully ratified
the Convention passed American resolutions, and
adjourned.
The Union ticket and the Democl attic ticket are
now in the field Mr. Cochran, the Wing. and
Mr. Phelps, the American, are supporters OF Mr..
Fillmore. Laporte is a Fremonter Thus our
readers viii see that the Union ticket Is two-thrds
American, and its triumph will be an American
triumph. Laporte is the only man whose election
is doubtful. The other candidates will have 90 900
or $4,000 majority. We define this case with dis
hrctness, for the reason that if the Union ticket
is elected, the Republicans, with their usual dis
regard Of truth and fairness, viii claim the entire
glory!

Senator Toombs for Disunion.

correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle states
that Senator Toombs, in recent speech at Wilkes
o. H., Georgia, informed his hearers that General
Oass and other distinguished Northern Democrats
had informed him that there was no hope for Blu.
chanan's election Mr.. Toombs inferred from this
that Fremont would be eIected-in which event
he counselled the immediate secession of the South
ern States
Mr.. Toombs jumps at his conclusion too rapidly.
1t is true as Gen. Cass informed him. that Mr.
Buchanan will not be elected But it by no means
follows that Mr. Fremont will be- Willard Fill

North, no South, and whose nomination for the
Presidency Mr. Toombs himself advocated in 1852

race. In the North he will receive thousands Of
Democratic votes. Why should he not in the
SOUTH Why should not Mr. Toombs vote for
him He left the Wing party in 1852 because
