TuR END OF A0ITAroN.--lt is significant
that the two extreme classes of fanatics, the
Southern Calhoun Slavery Disunionsts, and
the Northern Garrisonian Abolition Disun-
ionists, should labor SO cordially together in
opposition to Fremont, and SO earnestly sup
plicate the election Of Mr.. Buchanan.
In tho Anti Slavery Nanddrd the n. Y.
organ Of Garrisonian Abolitionism OF the
End instant, VIC observe letter from Mr..
Pillsbury, one Of their leading speakers, in
which he says: 81 would gladly send you
smorc subscribers, and it is not my fault
"that do not, but this Internal Republican
"ism so absorbs the attention, the interes,
sand the means OF those who have natural
Tendencies towards anti-slavery, that they
"cannot and will not invest in abolition pa
'pers. Perhaps should not characterize
s'them as 'infernal,' but l am continually
"vexed at them. 1t requires vast
"amount Of the grace of patience toesbe re-

s.nation rejecting the sayings Of truths Of
s'the Abolitionists, and rushing headlong to
obstruction. ] feel that the success
"of the Republicans, If possible, will be
sstheir ruin" And vet, in spite OF nil this,
mendacious prints who know better nlly the
Republican party with the Abolitionists,
and even this extreme school Of them, not
~ithstandlng they are confeie OF their
own, dencnncing our principles and our can
didates, and hoping and praying for the sue
cess of Buchanan. in conjunction with the
Disunionis,s Of the South, believing that the
success of Buchanan would assist in their
,raitorous schemes, while the election Of Mr..
Fremont would quiet agitation, and, by set
Ting the question of Slavery in tho terrific
ries, leave no chance for agitation upon the
subject as to the States. But. nevertheless,
there We stand. We claim the right Of pro-
hibiting the extension Of Slavery into the
territories, and declare the duty and design
Of exercising that right. We concede that
in the States il is State institution, over
which we have no control. This is the doc
trine and tho practice OF the fathers OF the
Republic, and We intend to restore the poll.
cy OF the government to its original integ-
rity. There is not an honest and intelligent
man, who is not at heart in favor Of Slavery,
who will differ with us as TO the richtfulness
of the policy We proclaim. And in the de-
fence of that policy we are brought into con-
fliot with the Southern Notification Disun-
ionsts, the Northern Garrisonian Abolition
Dlsunionis,s, the whole grand army of
BUCCANEERS, and the skulking guerilla hordes
of which the Post Of this city is n fair ex-
emplar. But our cause is strong, the issue
is growing daily clearer, and the Republican
party,-the only true conservative, constitu-
tional party Of the day,-will triumph over
oil their speckled host of Disunionists, Fill
busters, and political despcradoes.
MssorRI.-Polk, the regular candidate OF
the Black Democracy for Governor, is sew
erHl hundred ahead of Ewing, his Know l
Nothing competitor, and as the counties to |
come in are among those least affected by
Know Nothing influence, il is expected that
Mr.. Polk will be elected by several thousand
majority. Mr.. Benton is far behind either
of these gentlemen. The Legislature, SO far.
shows plurality of seven in favor Of the
.nsi-Bentonites, Know Nothngs and Ben
tosliies being about equally strong, but the
latter weakest Of the two
KENTUCKY ELEcrIoS.---A telegraphc dis
patch, dated tho 8th inst, SAYS that the re-
turns from A. counties show an American I
majority of $50. The Democratic gain is 1
AT. The State has undoubtedly gone for
the Democrats.
A CHaSGr.--Our friend, Edwin Ii. Grant, /
Esq., not cnninciding with, nor wishing in
any way to be held responsible for, the pro-
slavery and Black democratic course Of Fa-
Their Scholte, has withdrawn from the Pei

This is the second paper printed in English,
