The attempt that is being made to crowd Gov
ernor Gardner down the throat OF the Peoples
party, seems to meet with universal disfavor out

and bread and butter satellites of His Excelency,
who feel bound to lick the hand that feeds

The Springfield Republican, in its editorial of
yesterday, takes very comprehensive and very
common sense view of the whole matter, por,
ton of which we subjoin below =
"The attempt to adopt Gov. Gardner in
the Fremont State Convention, next week,
would produce disorder. division, -and, if sue
cessful, secession. We do not stop to discuss
here whether these unconquerable objections
10 HIS Excellency are right or wrong I'VE only
speak oil them as existing facts, hich will be
proved, if doubters give the opportunity but
we may say that they are not founded on his
Americanism, but spring out of the general
fact that his nomination establishes issues and
raises questions on which the Fremont party In
Massachusetts are irreconcilably and hope
lessly divided. So, to less extent, does t. e
nomination of Julius Rockwell for, though
he has no record, like Gov. Gardner, to which
any supporter of Fremont can reasonably OBJ
ject, his American opponents in the contest of
cannot well be expected to give him a willing
support The union OF the Fremont vote of
Massachusetts on State ticket is not to be
secured by placing at its head either Mr..
Rockwell or Mr.. Gardner
That is the true doctrine The Peoples Par
ty is a new party, and it needs new men.
If the present Executive, and his friends, are
so DESTROYS of union and harmony, as they pre-
tend to be, why don't they take him out OF the
way. Let's have clear track and fair play all
around hat is all the people ask, it is all they
want, and they are determined to have it, at any
rate, they are determined not to be forced into
the biggest kind of row. under the lying PEE
tence of promoting union and harmony, which
will end in the destruction of theintegriiy of the
peoples party.
The REPUBLICAN says further, and there is great
weight in its statement of the case
"But, again, there are the considerations
for the future, which are more important,
perhaps, than those of the present State cleo
ton, to the Republican or Fremont party aud
these point to the necessity Of maintaining its
organization inviolate. Fremont's election
would uestonably restore whatever might
be broken down in the State election but IN
case of his defeat in whaI condition would
the Republicans of Massachusetts be for car
rying on the contest against the aggressive
slave power, with. their organization broken
down and given up to that OF another and
rival party, the Americanss
Whether difference between the Fremont
party of Massachusetts OH the general State
ticket will be followed by like differences in
the congressional districts, counties, and
towns, remains to be developed. Probably
not, certainly there would be no occasion or
necessity for any further division The Re.

then, as now. and al they have been all along
in all the nominations, concedng at least, an
equal i not greater proportion TO the Ameri-
can section, as would secure The cordial sup
