roads or county expenses, judicial contro-
versies or liquor laws. 1t will be plainly
and simply Freedom OR SLAVERY, and
nothing else, and or this question we
have the inside track and the popular
sympathies. We have no doubt that by
comparison Of The votes taken for men,
bers Of Congress in all three ofthe Sta
tes, the Republican vote will make a
much better show than it does on the
county and State issues. Take our own
county, for instance. Here Mr.. Gallo
way had one majority, while all of the
Bnchanier county ticket is elected by
majorilies of not less than one hundred,
ond fftty.seven majority. In Fairfield
county, the Buchanan State ticket has
400 majority, but it only gives Medill
for Congress 1000 majority, being a diff
erence of 400 votes in one county. In
madison county. the Republican State
ticket is in minority Of 80. while Harlan,
Republican, for Congress, has majority
in the same county Of $50. In the same
county, Crabb, Republican, has 800 ma
jority for Auditor, and Smith, Democrat,
has. 40 majority for ohersffSss svhile Phillips,
Republican, has l5O majority for Com
missioner.
These are only few facts, but they
show that in every instance where the
national issue is present to the people
they are with us, and from such facts we
argue favorable Of the result in November
We are aware that the Buchaniers will
make loud shout over their claimed vic.
tories, and will keep up their yell until
November. 1t may disturb, but it
cannot daunt the spirits Of the Repub-
licans. We know that our cause is just,
and mus. prevail in November. There
are thousands Of men who will vote for
Fremont and Dayton in November, that
either stayed at home, or voted for the
opposition State tickets on Tuesday last.
As regarded Pennsylvania we believe
the Republicans have carried it. We
believe so because the RETURNS SHOW IT.
We care little for the dispatches in the
Buchanan papers from Forney and
Harry Cohnely." They are playing a
: bold brag game, and they will keep it up
: until the end cometh. Another advan-
2 tage the. Republicans will have in No
vember which they had not on Tuesday,
and that is, all the States will vote on the
same day, so that the corrupt system oI
colonizing, widely and boldly prac'iced
in Pennsylvania add Indiana, cannot be
played, as the votes in each will be wan
ted at home. We had reports last weel
that upward of twenty thousand illegal
votes were being registered in Philadel
phia city and county alone. ....
Another point, which we believe is now
seen by the Fillmore men is, they in'ent
to be felt in this great question, they
must throw what little strength they hav'
with the Republicans. They have moth
ing to expect from the Buchaniers. bu
snubbing and insult, Should Buchanan
