THE FUSION TICKET.

LIE Il OOlON 1lCAEl.
The Executive Committees representing the
Fillmore men. Black Republicans and North
Americans. met at Philadelphia on Friday
last and made sundry propositions to each 9TH
er to combine the whole vote Of the opposition
upon one electoral ticke. to defeat Mr. Bu-
chanan if possible, in Pennsylvania
After much discussion the Fillmore men re-
fused to fuse. and expressed determination
to stand by their electoral ticket already in the
field. The following resolutions wer~-aaopt-
ed by them unanimously: Fa
Rcsolred, That we deem it pld fgedient to
make any alteration in .he Fillmore and Dom
elson Electoral Ticket in this State, and that
NC are firmly convinced that any interference
with it would be the means of giving the State
to Mr.. Buchanan, instead of defeating him.
Reso!ued, That we decline to accept either
of the propositions of the Republican State
Committee, satisfied that the Electoral Ticket
already in the field is the only one on which
all opposed to Mr.. Buchanan can successfully
unite, and pledging it to uncompromising OPP
position, and to the defeat, under any and all
circumstances, of bis election
Subsequently the members of the Republi-
can committee, Joined by number of North
Americans, met and formed the following new
electoral ticket, which all the woody heads
are called upon to vote as g Union ticket -

This ticket il will be observed, is beaded by
John c. Fremont who's not citizen of Penn
sylvanis, but whom his friends. despairing of
electing him President, now call upon the peo-
pie of the &" Keystone" to at least make him
an clector for that Office What an insult to
the intelligent FREEMEN of Pennsylvania p
How unprecedented the act!! What a re-
buke it will receive in Novemberii!
Another fusion movement came off at Har-
risburg yesterday. called Union Convention,
in which this county was represented by our
neighbor, Maj. John Thompson. This gath
eriug of Know Nothings and Black Republi-
cans finally adopted the electoral ticket form
ed at Philadelphia on Friday last, SO that the
opposition have now two electoral tickets in
the field. This may be said to be the last eff
fort of that arch -trickster, Thaddeus Stevens,
TO accomplish the purpose he avowed months
since Of /" cheating the Fillmore men of Penn
sylvauia into voting for Fremont"
To the democracy it matters but little wheth-
er the opposition have one or two electoral
tickets in the field, for either singly or combi-
ned they arc destined to be Jeatea.
