SENATOR FISH FOR FREMONT.

Y Senator Fish, Of New York, is out with
along and able letter, declaring himself
for Fremont and Dayton. After speak
ing of the Republican platform and the
present contest he says: 7F st.s t-t
sin such acrisis, and under such cir
cumstancesJ my voice be there. 1 can,
without difficulty, perceive my way clear
to that point, and though still Wing,
shall cast my vote for Fremont and Day
ton, esIeeming such a course the best
and surest remedy for present evils"
He treats the bullebaloo raised by the
Fillmourners and Buchanier territories
in the following paragraph as it deserves;
ave are told that in case of the elec-
ton of Col. Fremont, the South will not
and ought not to submit; that the Union
will be dissolved. This is an unpatriotic
and disloyal suggestion, deserving repro.
priation; contemplate as The threat, and
if uttered earnestly evience want of
proper'appreciatiOn of the priceless value
and Of the strength of the Union.

From the New York independent ]
ONLY ONE VOTE.


Christians sometimes excuse them
selves from going TO the poles, and from
taking anv active interest in politics, on
the plea that few votes more or less can
notmaterially affect the result of al cleo
ton. and, therefore, since they can do no
good by voting, they choose to avoid the
exeitements of a political campaign.-
Let as look al this plea. Does the fact
thatwe cannot be sure of accomplishing
great and manifest good, lessen our OBJ
,igation to use all reasonable effort for
that end? Shall Christians reason thus,
because in given community they
chance to be minority, or because they
are but a very small minority of the pop
ulationzof the globe? The ability and
the opportunity to act, and not the esti-
mated results of action, are the meas
ure of Christian obligation. The may
be often gives additional emphasis to the
orght. We must obey the dictates of
conscience, the sense of right, the calls of
humanity and of Providence, even when
we cannOtssee the promise Of, immediate
good; but when to the plain dictates of
Conscience, Humanity and Religion, are
added even the possible results of good
from our action or of evil from ourinac
ton, the obligation TO ado with our might
that which our hand fndeth TO do,'' be-
comes more urgent and impressive.
Now nothing can be more Elusive than
this very plea thata single vote win ac-
eomplish nothing for the good of the
country nothing to secure just counseIs,
nothing 10 hinder The triumph of deceit
and oppression, because it is but one
There, have been crises memorable in
history, both in the British Parliament
and IN the early Colonial legislation in
this country, when measures portentions
with the destiny of nations and of ages
hung upon single vote. And under
our popular form of government, sin
gle vote is l;kely at any time to deter
mine the election of public officers. or in
legislative bodies to Settle measures of
momentous interest to State or toihe

was Governor Of the State of Massa-
chusetts elected by one vote. In one in
stance single majority in the popular
election. In the other he was elec:ed by
amajority Of one, in the Legislature, in
default of election by the people. By
how small a majority was Mr. Banks
chosen Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatiyes. And yet how much of the
efficiency of the present Congress in be-
half of Constitutional freedom is due to
the two or three votes that placed him in
the Speskar's chair Tie other day the
vote TO admit Kansas asa Free State un-
der the Topeka constitution, was lost by
one vote, after every preliminary meas
ure mad been carried. Again, the mo-
stion to reconsider that fatal resolve was
carried BY two votes. One single vote

made a legislature to pass laws they well

This would furnish pretext for perse-

UNBLUsH1NG EFFRONTERY.

The Bafialo Republic publishes the
following extract fromihe speech of SEN
ator Hunter, of Virginia, at Poughkeep-
sic on Wednesday, Of last week II is
equal in atrocity and boIdness to any
thing in The Richmond Ea5ri;rer, bu,
that such sentiments should be uttered
before Northern audience is almost

Fellow, citizens, what is property in
man, and what involuntary servitude?
Property may be absolute or limited, ii
may be in fee for number of years.
In practice, one man may hold property
in the service Of another for life, as in
the law of slavery; for term years, as
apprenticeship; or fer months, weeks,
days or hours, as in the case of domes-
tics, or mechanics, or lawyers, or doc
tors In civilized society. there is no
man, except in the rare cases of those
living on accumulated capital. who does
not sell to another property in his ser.
vice. This is servitude, and if constrain-
ed by the necessities of poverty. il is
as much involuntary as if it were form
ed by any other physical necessity
The evils which are ascribed to one form
Of This servitude are common to them
all, and so claimed to be by this socialist
sect of which l have spoken.
Are hard cases of separation in fam;
lilies to be found where slavery exists
do they not also occur when ever a man
is forced by bis necessity to sell his labor
in the highest market? Are many re.
voting instances to be found of the sub
mission BY one man Of his wife to anoth
er in the one case, do they not also oc,
cur in the other? Whatever evils are
asclibed to involuntary servitude in the
one case, can and have been aseribed 10
the other. Shall we, for this reason,
proclaim that no man shall be allowed
to sell his labor, or give a right of prop
erty in his services to another?" e '''
The plain English of the foregoing,
stripped of its rhetoric, is that all men
who live by labor are slaves, to all in
tents and purposes,-as much so, prac-
tically, as the bondmani who is bought
and sold, like the beasts of the field
But even this insulting sentiment is mild
ly yslanderous when compared with the
contemptuous imputalions cast upon
free society. There are few men at the
North who are not ''laboring men," and
the insult applies to all who labor with
their brains, as well as those who labor
