The Herald accompanies these statistics with
the following remarks
We say, then, that these newspaper statistics
furnish striking illustration of the drift ST pub
lie opinion. There is something so unusual au
remarkable in the popularity Of Fremont tht
there can he nothing less than spontaneous
popular revolutionary movement at the 0ottou.
of il. Mr. Buchanan is an old outstanding Pre-
sidenfal candidate--bir. Fillmore is an old So.
cer.and has been regularly before the people as g
candidate for the succession since February -
But new man, outside of all the machlnery 81
the old party scene shutters Of the day--a ma
not dreamed OF by the old housing politicians o.
any party three months ago-is brought forward
by sort Of popular spontaneous combustion,
and in single month he astonishes his enemies
aud surprises even his friends, with his wonder
ful speed, wind and bottom. tits not Fremont
it is popular revolution that is thus stirring
up the foundations of the great deep OF pub!ic
sentiment ike ground swell
1t is idle for the democratic journals TO pfeaca
disunion-ltis nonsense and humbug for MI.
Fillmore to recommend secession in the event o!
the election Of Fremont. There is nothing Of dis
union III the position occupied by Col. Fremont
there will be no secession in the event of his
success. The power which has brought him out
is that of independent people, in opposition 70
the demoralized and corrupting old spoilsmcn ~
the Pierce, jeff Davis and Forney democracy;
and there is power at the back of this move
ment which is destined to break up, dispense
and destroy all the old worn out parties and par-
ty cabals and regencies of the country This
power Is the Independent press, which, starting
here in New York some twenty odd years ago,
has been gradually radiating in every direction,
and acquiring strength from popular encourage
ment, until, sustained by the great active mass
cs of the independent people, this engine Of the
independent press has displaced administrations,
old party hacks, administration organs, and cen
trail ciques of party managers, and is felt by al!
parties as q power in the land.
The Fremont movement, therefore, being the
movement of n popular revolution of the inde-
pendent people OF all parties, and the indepen'
dent press. are free to dec are the opinion tbs
the election of Fremont will be one of the mcst
import mt decisive and Wholesome results for 'G"
Union, the Constitution, and publication o. Tres
fostering sores upon the body polite, the govern
ment We believe in the intelligence Of the
American people, and are willing to follow then
and to trust them when they take work of re-
formation in hand. Let this revolution, then
go on
