pie generally know for whom they are voting;
but under the new order of things which the
opposition leaders have instituted in Penn
sylvania, every man who votes the Fusion
ticket for President, gives a divided vote,
part for FREMONT and part for FILLMORE
And what is more peculiar still, he cannot
tell till after the count, whether he has voted
most for the Abolitionist or the Know Moth
ing. His vote is, therefore, made the result
of contingencies to be decided after the cleo
ton is over. This wicked tampering with
the sacred right of suffrage, is thus character.
istically hit off by the veteran editor of the
Ohio Statesman
The very fact of this mode of political ira.
ding, the first on record since the adoption OF
our Government, should of itself be an object OF
suspicion.
But this bargain and sale of open corruption,
placing mems votes on the cast of die, to be
determined by count after the voting is over
stinks of fraud and the lowest kind of Peter
Funking among the lowest and vilest thieving
of the country-and all our courts have decided
they are frauds, and laws are passed to abate
such nuisances.
In the above case the right of suffrage, the
highest and greatest right that we possess, is
put up at a RATTLE and no man can tell for whom
has voted until the cards are counted
One man thinks he has voted for Fillmore,
and it turns out he has voted for Fremont-sn-
other supposes he has voted for Fremont, but on
the turn Of the dice box out comes Fillmore -
and this they call executing "the right of suf-
frage" and we are told to wait until the Qua
kers vote If the Quakers have not changed
since we knew them in Pennsylvania, they will
not vote a pack of eards at all events

was held in that city on Tuesday the 23d

results of the late elections in Pennsylvania

themes upon which they discoursed, and over
which the rejoiced. Gov WILLARD was in
attendance, and received the most marked
attention and most enthusiastic welcome and
greeting. Gov. POWELL, Major j. G. BRECK-

in the best style of famous Kentucky bar

Ths Journal and The penn.1lvania Eleetier


For some reason which TO most men would
seem unsccountable, the Journal continues to
falsify ths result OF the recent election in
Pennsylvania
In its Saturdays issue, ii says that the Re-
publicans have carried the Legislature, and a
majority of the Congressional delegation. So
far from this being true, the very reverse is
the fact. Our Pennsylvania exchanges, en-
bracing papers Of all parties, as well as those
of no party, concede the election of fifteen
members of Congress to ten opposition. The
Pennsylvanian of the ed also gives full re-
turns of the members of the Legislature
elected, whom II Classics as follows -

Eraukllu Nouuty
The glorious Democracy of Franklin coun-
ty, who did wonders on the 18th inst, con-
tributing their full share toward the triumph
ant success of the Democratic State Ticket,
hold last grand rally at Brookvil', on the
31st inst Hon. JESSE d. BRIGHT, the Vice
President, Gov. WRIGHT, Gov. WILLARD,
and q number of Indiana's distinguished
Democrats are announced to be present. The
people will be there, from the adjoining coun-
ties of Ohio, as well as of Indiana, and will
return home bearing that standard upon
which victory will gloriously perch through
their honest and patriotic exertions, on the
tn of November coming.
OF The Vincennes Gazette is down on the
Fillmore men, charging that they voted for
WILLARD, and is now thanking the gods
that the Abolition party will be clear of them
at the Presidential election. We think, with
the Gazette, that the Fillmore men have too
much sagacity to tie themselves to the dead
carcass of FREMONT in Indiana. He is dead
as door nail, and he that votes for him will
place himself in bad position, and have a
very bad political record hereafter. We are
informed that the Fillmore men in the south
ern counties of the State have, and intend to,
separate themselves distinctly from the for
tunes Of FREMONT.

drew upa petition for the citizens of Alher-

Tho American Party and Immigration.

The American Party and immigration.
We find the following sentence said to have
been written five years ago by Maj. Donelson,
copied in several Old Line papers, with great
gusto. as evidence of remarkable inconsistency
on the part of the writer, who is now the
American candidate for the Vice Presidency:
eve are glad to see this emigration from the
Old World. It brings to us the physical force
we need to fell the forest and to build our i'm
We have yet and will have for
many years, scope and range enough for their
industry and enterprise"
There is no one thing in which the American
party have been more grossly belied and
misrepresented, than on the very subject COW
cred by this extract. There is not one word
in the above, that Maj. Donelson may not now
repeat with the full approval of the American
party-not word that any part or portion
of the principles of the American party will
demand of an American to oppose. The OPP
ponents of the American party have charged
that it is a great object with this party to pre-
vent foreign immigration. On the contrary,
there is no party in the Union more disposed to
extend hearty welcome to the oppressed and
down trodden of other lands, than the Amer
lean party, nor more disposed to protect the
rights of those who throwing off their allegi-
ance to other powers, have become American
citizens. There is not one word in the princi-
pies or creed of the American party opposed
to this. And yet its enemies, with the most
shameless hardihood, have charged upon the
American party, that it is trying to prevent
this immigration, and refusing the Inequalities
of our Republic to the oppressed Of other coun-
tries.
The very act ofquoting the above paragraph
as piece of inconsistency on the part of Don
olson, proves they are trying to create the i'm
preston that the American party occupy an
entirely different position--a base misrepre-
sentaton. But while we welcome foreigners
to this country, and will protect the rights and
privileges already the possession Of the foreign
born who are now American citizens-this
party does insist, that the term of probation
before those now coming into the country,
and hereafter to come, can exercise the right
Of American citizens, is too short, and should
be extended. This is as well due the foreign
born who are already American citizens, and
have lived in this country great many more
than five years, as those born on the soil, and
who are not citizens by law till they are twenty
one years of age. In this State, the American
party also advocates the principle that none

lar election. The Old Liners are for sustain
ing the present ''six months law permitting
any foreigner to vote who has been year in
the country, and six months in the State and
declared his intention of becoming an Ameri
can citizen. Nothing but Demagogueism op-
poses either of these positions of the Ameri-
can party, and nothing but gross ignorance OF
gross knavery will misrepresent them for the
purpose of injuring the American party.
