TESTIMONY OF THE y. Y. "TRI-

RIGHT!
The following is from the leading article
Of the New York TriJuae Of October 9th:
1--WE do not wish our readers to believe
the election Of Fremont a fixed fact. We
do not ourselves believe it. aud should not de-
sire to di1'use the impression, if we did We
wish it generally understood that the struggle
is arluous, and the result depends upon work
yet to be done In spite Of many cheering
assurances we consider the States Of Penn
syIyania, New Jersey, Indiana, Illinois and
California, stll doubtful We may carry all
Of them by large majorities, but we may
also lose enough Of them to beat US in the
contest.
We consider our chance in the House.
should the election 60 thither, Of very little
worth. We must succeed, # at all, by the
votes of the people We cannot count on a
single slave State, and we must either carry
Pennsylvania, or losing 10, carry all thc rest
of the free States This is the naked trath

aud realized. Should we lose Pennsylvania,
we may possibly succeed without her-but
that, Ike the choice Of Fremont by the
House, is only chance If we carry Penn

We warned our readers last week to be-
ware Of the falsehoods that would appear in
the California Americqn after the arrival Of
the steamer. See the American Of Friday,
and you viii be convinced that we were right.
1t is full OF stories so foolish that they con
trdict themselves. For instance, they an
nounce important Fillmore news" in large
letters al the head Of its dispatch, when not
word Of the same appears in the dispatch
itself The Amrieqn struggles hard in the
/ hour Of its party's death.
Democrats, be Of good cbeerl The Allan
tic speaks TO the Pacific, and the Pacific will
answer back o the Atlantic.
