CORRESPONDENCE.
PHrLADELpHIA. Oct. Sd. 18,


EDITORS PIONEER The game some
times successfully played by those who
rob us of our money, is being enacted
here, with what success the future vii,
develop by the sc Platform Democra-
cy. In imitation of this hoary custom
this thief's cry of stop thief" these
disunionists and sectionalists are charging
the Republicans, the only real friends of
the Union and Nationalism, that they are
a sectional party, and desire the over
throw of the confederacy. Not only has
Mr.. Fillmore, in express terms, invited
treason against the Union on the part Of
the South. but the late James Buchanan,
now of the Platform, has suggested the
same thing as remedy in case The peo-
pie, in the exercise of their constitutional
right, elect Mr.. Fremont to the PresideS-
cy. The organ grinder of the Platform
in this city responds to this reasonable
sentiment, and morning, noon and night
the burden of its song is, "D;sun;on
which it "plays on harp of a thousand
strings This shrek of Disunion,"
raised by these political "stop thieves"
will not win. The people well know
these charges, as applied to the Republi-
cans, are basely false. The following Incl
dent, which occurred here during Mr..
Buchanan's stay last week, distinctly
shows his " sectionalism." to say nothing
about the recreancy to freedom and the
North which it exhibits
Among the number who called on Mr..
Buchanan at the Merchants Hotel, with
many others, was Pennsylvania,
North Carolinian, Tennessean, and a
Virginian-all of tlese ardent admirers
of the "sage." The conversation natu-
rally turned upon Presidential prospects.
The Virginisn promised $4,000, the
North Caroinian 10000, and the Tennes-
sean 5000 majority for him in their re-
spective States. Having listened to the
foregoing with great deal of compla-
cency, the "sage" replied:
"The South is the land of sunshine

Such IS his intense devot;on to the South.

ties of Pennsylvania, of the Union, or the
North. In such contest, Pennsylvania
