can you forget Princeton and Trenton,
where the South was with you and bled
with you-where Mercer fell and died
where Monroe bled-where, umtted, we
turned the consequences of a long line
of trials and disasters into signal victo-
ries, which inspired new hope and life
throughout the Statesl Never, never
No, never! can you forget that great
period 1t is the very romance of our
revolutionary history! We have an
abiding faith that on the 4th of Novem-
Der you will answer this with triumph.
To Pennsylvania, the keystone of the
arch of this Union. we look with perfect
confidence. 1t is the fatherland of thou
sands whose fathers have passed through
the valley of Virginia to the Southwest.
Your kindred are there looking with
eager anxiety to the patriotic struggles
which you are making. They turn to
memorable events and patriotic names of
your history. There stands Indepen-
dence Hall. With you are the names of
Franklin, Rush, Wayne and Charles
Thompson. Upon your soil many a
hard blow was struck that we might be-
come united people. There, also, in
your midst, is the bloody ground of Ger
mantown; and there, too, is Valley
Forge, place made sacred by the suf-
ferings and devotion of our patriot army,
by the trials and anxieties of our patriot
chief. To lead you, now, in this con-
test, and with all these membranes to
strengthen your hearts, you have your
own native son, who has long been your
favorite, and whom you have long sought
to honor He deserves your confidence
by series of unbroken acts in the his
tory of our republic which make his re-
cord an honor to you, and will insure to
the whole people the prosperity and
safety of the Union! Win you let the
flag of the nation 60 down, and the flag
of the Black Republicans of only six
teen stars go up in the ascendant? No!
neverl We feel sure that we shall hail
your victory, and shall have the privil-
ege of rejoicing in your honors. And
yet one more remains of the Old Thir-
teen. 1t is Delaware. She, too, has
her battlefield. At Brandywine the
blood of the North and the South was
shed in the common cause. Her latitude
and longitude are contracted; but her
heart was great and her deeds heroic
She has always stood by the Union, and
we add her to the list of the triumphs
which will help to save it.
To all Of the Old Thirteen of the
North, we especially repeat, shall not
these things be? Shall not the national
cause triumph, and national counsels
prevail2 Peace and safety will then
come, and our whole country will then
breathe deeper and freer."

FREMoNT AND THE Know NoTnrNos. s.
If Fremont is elected, the country will
owe the American Party debt Of graft

noble advocates of free soil to say that
the American organization in the East
and West is the backbone of the repub-
lican party,-Albany State Register, "a

were found marching to the fields Of
carnage. In their madness and insan-
ity they even fought on after they had
forgotten the original cause of war, and
Catholic and Protestant were at last
found, side by side, fighting against
Catholic and Protestant. They fought
until even the genius of desolation sick
ened at the sight, and wept over the
barren hills and depopulated plains of a
once happy land. Religion and educa-
ton were abandoned and forgotten, and
this proud nation was changed into a
miserable rabble. Two-thirds of the
entire nation persisted in the war. In
Saxony alone 900, 900 men were des-
troyed within two years. All the evils
of political treachery, of religious fanat-
icism, of the rapacity of aspiring adven-
turers, and of the brutality of the SOL
diery, were let loose on the people
Driven from hearth and home, in eternal
terror of the soldiers, and without in
struction, what could be expected from
the. growing generation but sordid cow
ardice and the shameless immortality
which they had learned from the army
Even the last remains Of political free
dom persisted in the war, since all classes
were plundcred and their strength ex.
hausted. The early civilization Of Ger.
many had refrigerated into barbarism.
Famine ragged in all is horrid forms. -
Children were devoured by parents, and
parents by children. Women engaged
in mortal conflict with each other to Sc.
cure the starving infant for a neal
Many tore up bodies from their geaves,
or sought the pits where horse-killers
threw their carcasses for the carrion
All the resources of the country we're Sc
completely exhausted that even the wilC
beasts of the forest, deprived Of their ac
customed food, were found lying abou
exhausted and dying. Germany, ever
to this day, has not fully recovered from
the effects of that dreadful war.
Such is picture of the scenes int
which mad fanaticism would drive us
such the feast for which we are invite,
to abandon our present happy condition
What guarantee or hope have we tina
the civil waa into which these traitor
would drive us will be less bloody or les
devastating than that of Germany? I
the descendants Of the Puritan and tn
descendants of the Cavalier in our coun
try ever draw the sword on each other

people who left this State for business
purposes in the North and East, during
the present summer, have returned. =
Many who left were very ardent Fillmore

Some with whom we have conversed tell
us that Fillmore is not considered in
the race at all in the North-tha. the

Fremont-that no observing man thinks
there is any possible chance for Fillmore
to carry State in the Union --iSauan-

THE PLoT TO HUMDUd THE South.
We commend to the notice of Tennessee,
Kentucky, Virginia, and Maryland, the
language held by the New York Herald.
1t is in the jubilant spirit of conquest. 1t
says:
Mr.. Fillmore accepts, on broad ma
tional grounds, the Philadelphia Know
nothing nomination. He is a popular
man in the South, and, with anything
like an ordinary effort on the part of his
friends, he ought at least to carry tho
States of Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky,
Tennessee. aad North Carolina. II he
can do this, or anything near it, the OPP
position in the North can afford the loss
of Pennsylvania, and two or three other
smaller States, and still be able TO leave
Mr.. Buchanan in a minority of the cleo
toral and popular vote Of the country
In this event the election would, Of
course, go up 10 the House of Reprcsen-
tatives at Washington. where the oppo-
sition, being in a heavy majority, would
undoubtedly be able TO control the cleo
ton"
Power-power-power--is all our OPP
ponents seek in this contest. No mat
ter how obtained, power is the beginning
and power the end Of all their hopes.
Look to it, ye men Of the volunteer State !
Remember il, ye hunters Of Kentucky J
Democrats Of the Old Dominion, strike
for the honor Of your country, and out
vie your own Tenth Legion! Maryland
ers, you never surrendered in the reyo-
luton, and you were present at the final
fall Of the enemy at the seige Of York !
Remember that day, and come in on the
4th Of November with victory on your
banners

A SIGN.-The Indiana Telegraph,
published at Connersvillc, Indiana, here
tofore neutral paper, in its issue of the
22d instant comes out boldly for Buch-
anan and Breckenridge. The editor
says:

and district nominations of the great ma
tional union democratic party cordially,
sincerely and with zeal inspired by an
absorbing conviction Of the dangerous
crisis in which our country is now in
volved. -
ave shall labor for the PRONUNCIATION
of those eternal principles Of political
truth and justice which lie at the fOuuda-
ton of this republican governmental
principles Of Washington, Jefferson,

TUITION shall be our text book.
eve shall oppose all radical isn,s and
sch;sms, all sectional or geographical
parties, and all parties founded on the
principle of prescription on account Of
accident of birthplace, or for the reason
of difference Of religious belief We shall
oppose any union Of State and Church,
either direct or Indirect
Hardening to the counsels Of pa
triots Of the revolution the warning

gies and abilities 10 aid in the prcserva-
ton Of the Union with all the ardor
which an appreciation Of the incalculable
blessings resulting thcrefrom can induce,
and with all the enthusiasm which a

disunion is calculated to inspire In the

leader Of the old wings Of New England

course of this paper-'Wc will 60 with

A PARALLEL CAsE.-As well might
Congress say to the Supreme Court, as n
condition Of making an appropriation for
the payment of the salaries of the judges,
that the court shall interpret such law
in such manner, while the law remains
upon the statute book unmodifed, as 10
say 10 the Senate and Executive such and
such things must be done in Kansas as q
condition Of granting supplies for the
support Of the army. The attempt, in
one case, TO control the free and consti-
tutional action Of the court would be no
greater and no more alarming than, in
the other, 10 abstract the deliberations Of
a coordinate branch Of the legislature

TENNEssEE. Within the lac: few days
we have conversed with gentlemen Of po-
sition and prominence from each Of the
sections Of Tennessee, all of whom give
the most glowing accounts Of the pros
poets Of the Democracy. The lowest
majority claimed for Buchanan and Breck-
inridge is FIVE thousand, while some claim
ten. This news is corroborated by pri-
yatc letters every day.-tHion
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1856-09-12
FALsEHOoD CORRECTED.

The following ridiculous paragraph is
going the rounds Of the opposition press: :
"DEcLINEs TO sERvE.-The Hon. Mr..
Goode, one of the democratic electors of
Virginia, says he is no longer acting
with the democracy. He is an old-line
whig, and, being opposed to some of the
features Of the American organization,
he has acted with the democracy. But
having been in Congress with Buchanan,
and knowing that he cannot be trusted
on the question of slavery, whilst, from
his serving with Mr.. Fillmore, and his
action while President, he knows that
Mr.. Fillmore can be relied upon, he
therefore goes for Fillmore"
This is only another illustration of the
desperation of the Fillmore press, and
of the eagerness with which it seizes
upon every idle story to bolster up its
sinking fortunes. The Hon. William o.
Goode, the present representative in Con-
gress from Virginia, it is true, served in
the House whilst Mr.. Buchanan was q
member of the Senate. He had thus an
opportunity of becoming personally ac-
quainted with that distinguished states
man, and of observing his strict adhe-
renee to a conservative and constitutional
policy. 1t may be that it is for that rea-
son he accords to Mr.. Buchanan that ar
dent support which it is well known he
gives the nominees of the Cincinnati
Convention.
1t is equally true that Mr., Goode
served in Congress with Mr.. Fillmore
and having there had an opportunity OF
witnessing Mr.. Fillmore's close political
association with Giddings Slade & Co.,
and his uniform support of their section
al policy, it may be that he finds in those
"reminiscences the reasons which cause
him to look, as it is well known he does,
with SO much distrust upon the elevation
of Mr.. Fillmore to the Presidency.
The origin of this absurd story may
possibly be this: Mr.. Thos. +. Goodc
was appointed county elector for the
county of Mecklenburg, Virginia, and
declined to serve because it did not suit
him, and not because he is opposed to
Mr.. Buchanan. On the contrary, he
will give Mr.. Buchanan's election a
hearty and cordial support. - Union.
