THE ELECTORAL TICKET.

The action of the Union State Convention
is meeting the appreciation of the opponents
of BUCHANAN throughout the country. 1t is
very evident that there must be a cordial Co
operation of the opposition, or this State can
not be redeemed Aud it is equally clear that
if Pennsylvania casts her electoral vote for
Buchanan his election is certain. Fillmore has
no reasonable prospect of carrying single
southern State and even if he should succeed
in Maryland, the probabilities for Buchanan in
New Jersey and California, are much greater,
which added to the Southern votes given for
him, with Pennsylvania, would settle the
question.
1t is in this view of the case, that the friends
Of Fremont have been willing to make any
honorable arrangement by which the vote Of
Pennsylvania might be saved from BUCHANAN,
and the country averted from those disasters
which his election would entail upon it. The
plan adopted is both feasible and proper 1t
Is no cOmpromlse-n0 coalition, Every vote
cast for that which contains the name of John
u EIclnOnb 10 u fOte lOT lIOSc pfiiClpieS, anu
the aggregate will exhibit their strength with
the people Of Pennsylvania. In proportion to
the number of votes cast for that ticket, in the
event of the election of the twenty-six electors,
the vote of Pennsylvania will he cast in the
Electoral College. And So in proportion to
the number of votes given for Millard Fillmore
and the same twenty SIX electors will be the
number of votes which he will receive in the
Electoral College. Mr. Fremont and Mr.
Fillmore are therefore rival candidates, and
the contest for popular supremacy may be
conducted by their respective friends with all
the earncstness in their power, each contcndinr
for their principles without compromise or CON
ceament, and asking no favors of the other
This plan of union exactiAg no moral sacrifice,
must commend itself to the friends of both
candidates, and its acceptance by them must
result in the defeat of Mr.. Buchanan.
1t could hardly be expected that the forma-
ton of such an electoral ticket would meet the
appreciation of our political opponents They
find great many objections to it, but the
true reason Of their dislike is the certainty Of
defeat it ensures

ANOTHER MARTYR-Thc Post Master Ger

ANOTHER MARrYR-Thc Post Master Gen
cral has removed HIRAM SPEAR from the post
office at Springfield, and appointed Or. COREY
in his place. Mr.. SrEAR has been thrcate ned
for some time by the Buchanan leaders that
unless he supported Bordcr-rufianisn1, lie would
be removed but MS he chose to act conscien-
tiously, the axe has fallen upoa him. We
have no fault to find with the act, except that
it was in opposition to the wishes of the entire
population doing business at the Office who de-
sired Mr.. SPEAE retained, both on account of
efficiency as an officer, and of the proper To-
cation of the Office. ~ae ----
We believe Mr.. SfEAR was about the last
friend of Free Kansas left in post Office in
this County, There may be one or two more,
but if so, tis in 10, aitcs where there is no Bu-

from the fact, that there is not a post Office in

The Fremont Electoral Ticket.

( The correct Fremont Electoral Ticket will
be found at the head of our paper. Every
vote.cast for this ticket counts for john C..
FRENoNT and for no one else. To save the
State from Mr. BUCHANAN, bis opponents have
agreed upon on electoral ticket which shall
cast they of the State according to the re-
lative strength of Fremont and Fillmore
Nothing can be fairer than this Any other
course would inevitably give the state to Mr..
BUCHANAN and make his election certain.
Republicans do not be deferred from yot-
ing this Ticket by any silly cry of coalition.
Every vote you give is one directly against
both Fillmore and Buchanan The Buchan-
iers have coalesced with the Hindoos in New
York, in Massachusetts and in Connecticut,
and yet they are endeavoring to convince us
that we ought not to adopt the only means to
prevent Mr.. Buchanan from carrying Penn
sylyania. f.. ...

The Victory is Ours /!

From every quarter we have the most cheer
ing information in regard to the spirit which
animates the Republican hosts. Defeated but
not disheartened, they are preparing on the 4tu
of November to rally with renewed determine
tion for the overthrow of Border Ruffianisrn.
The election just passed has served to illustrate
our strength, and to show that certain victo-
ry is within our reach, if proper exertions are
put forth. The opposition has polled its best
vote, under the operations of systematic or
ganzation, and by the lavish disbursement of
money. The true strength of the cause of
Freedom is yet to be developed The vote of
the Second Tuesday will be largely increased
throughout the State, and does any doubt that
the new voters are the opponents of Mr.. b.
CHANAN?

Eay" Mr.. JeHN G. ADAMS, who has been all
summer trying to make up his mind where he
stood, has finally come out for the straight
Fillmore ticket, and in opposition to the Union
Electoral Ticket. While protesting TO be hos
tile to Mr. BUCHANAN he is bent on pursuing
the course which seems to be the most certain
to give Pennsylvania to Buchanan, by dividing
his opponents The leaders in this movement
arc bought up by FoRSEY, and arc employing
every means to aid Mr.. BuCHANAS's election.
We will not pretend to judge Mr.. ADAMS mo-
tiTes but he is in very poor company, and la

John G. Fremont was solicited by the Ncr,

ing itself daily. 1t is now rendered certain
that bargain has been made by which ERAs-

and the friends of the latter are to elect the
former Governor. We are reliably informed
that the leading FILLMORE men of Waverly
have, within day or two, come out for b.

We arc somewhat curious to see the result
of this coalition 1t would be funny enough
to see the great apostle of Dark Lanteris m,

The RESULT IN INDIANA.-The Buchaniers
have failed to make so clean swee, of the
Hoosier State as their Journals have claimed.
The two branches of the state legislature are
divided between them and the opposition. The
Senate is Republican by fonr majority, while
the, House gives a majority of about twenty to
the BUCCANEERS. On the gubernatorial vote,
the majority for Willard, the Buchanan candi-
date, constantly declines as the official returns
are received, and will not probably exceed five
thousand, notwithstanding the large amount of
fraudulent voting employed to swell it.
