Buchanan, and yet says he will be elected. II
he desired his defeat, he would counsel the
withdrawal of Fremont and concentration Of
the votes Of the opposition upon Fillmore
but he desires no such result-the defeat Of
Buchanan Is not nominated in the bond"-it
is not what that press contracted TO accom-
plish--its purpose, aim and effort from the first
has been to elect Buchanan, by division Of
the opposition. Indeed it admits the necessi-
ty Of combined opposition to defsat Buchanan,
and yet counsels the Fremonters 10 run their
ticket eUerysoherei
Now, when the Republicans have lost lndi-
ana, without the possibility Of recovery, when
they have lost half their former strength in
Ohio-when it is obvious they could not poll
one fourth of the aggregate vote in Pennsylva-
nia-that press counsels them to run pure
Republican ticket in all these, and in other
States, in the face of certain and inevitable de-
feat and for the concealed purpose of electing
Buchanan No other possible purpose could
induce such advice--no man but q profound
hypocrite- but a corrupt hireling- none
but an unprincipled Jesuit, would urge such
measure, with professions of desire to de-
feat Buchanan.
We have no idea that such advice win be
taken-that such trickery will prove success
full We believe that, before the day Of cleo
ton, the anti Forneyites of Pennsylvania win
discard such advice, and such advisers, and
vote the only ticket that can secure Buchanan's
defeat in that State
But if we are mistaken-if Buchanan should
be able, through division of the votes Of the
opposition, to carry his own State, with an ac-
tual majority of fifty thousand there against
him it may prevent the election of Fillmore
by the people-it cannot elect Buchanan-and
il can only throw the election into the House,
where the Republican States will have the de-
cision Of the question, whether to accept Mr..
Fillmore or permit Mr. Breckenridge to become
the President. If we understand anything of
public sentiment among the Democrats of the
South, they would infinitely prefer Breckin-
ridge to Buchanan, whilst thousands of them
would prefer Mr.. Fillmore to either, and in
view of the certainty that Mr.. Fremont can
neither be elected by the people, nor by the
House of Representatives, we opine that were
it even certain that Buchanan would carry
Pennsylvania, it would have no influence in
securing him an increased vote in the South,
where, as Fremont's ghost can no longer be
used to alarm them, they will be content to
abide the result of an election by the House,
if Mr.. Fillmore cannot get majority in the
electoral colleges.

of Col. Fremont now the Republican nominee for
the Presidency, during fit Of sickness, and during
that time Col. Fremont was quite sick, and sent
for Catholic priest, who administered to him (Col
Fremont) the sacrament, and burnt over him in

Sworn to and subscribed before me, by the above
named John James Wood, this 18th day of Sep
TENDER, 1855.
[signedl Gro. S. PATTERSON, j. P.
Mr. Wood, as we learn from the Cincinnati
Times, was formerly attached to the frigate Con-
gress, and while on board of that ship, he states
that Fremont had what was called the " Marathan
fever" and was Ill about two months Wood took
care of him during the whole time, and makes the
following statement in relation to his Catholicism
Fremont sent for Catholic priest while was
with him. He sent at about 9 o'clock one morn
ing, and the priest came that evening. He lived
some distance off, at some rancho, the name of
which could remember if / should hear it. The
priest was Spaniard or Mexican. His name
don't remember. He was in the habit of admins
tering the sacrament to Fremont and burning in
cense over him every day. This he did until FREE
mont got better, which was in about two weeks.
l know that Fremont was Catholic then don't
know anything about his religion now, but my
opinion is, that If he is elected President he will
turn to be Catholic again. won't vote for him
for that reason.

WHAT DID Irs--For the loss of Pennsylvania the
foreign illegal vote is entirely responsible Proba-
bly, 10000 Democratic voters were manufactured
for the election and yet the majority for that par
ty will not exceed 3,0o0-thus proving indisputa-
bly, that the American voters of both the opposi-
ton parties and many American Democrats voted
the Union ticket. This result Of the foreign vote
is just retribution upon the Republicans, who
have FRUSTRATED themselves lower than any party
ever did to the demoniacal influences which are
inuring the country and destroying its institutions

"The Democratic State ticket has majority of
about 5000 votes over the Union ticket. did
not anticipate this result but for some weeks past
began to be apprehensive. was made aware of
the immense sums of money the Democrats were
using in the canvass, and of their fixed design to
cast a very heavy fraudulent vote. Our election
laws afford cover for such purpose, although
ostensibly constructed to prevent frauds. j feel
confident that, in this city alone, ten thousand
fraudulent votes have been cast. This Is evident
from the fact that the returns show an increase,
since last spring, of $4,000 votes, when we had
very warm contest for Mayor, and both parties
made great efforts, and brought out as was then
thought, nearly the whole vote. The non-voters
then were Wings or Americans who were dissatis-
fed with the expenses of the city government,
and were willing to try the experiment OF a
change to give power to those who were so loud in
their professions Of reform. The change then made
placed the police in the hands Of the Democrats.
This body of 600 men, appointed by the present
Democratic Mayor, were for the most part from
among the lowest and not unfrequently the vilest
part Of the community, and very ft instruments
for the base uses to which they have been applied
In these stupendous frauds. / feel confident that
like frauds have been perpetrated throughout the
State, wherever the localities were favorable or
they could be effected; as, for instance, on the
lines separating us from adjoining States, from
which persons could be brought into this State to
vote.
+" In the Legislature, the Union majority in the
Senate believe, will be three In the House, the
vote will be very close, perhaps 40 Union men to
81 Democrats giving the Union party majority
of one on joint ballot. We should have had an
other member from this city (proper) but for the
mistake of clerk Of one of the precincts, in wri-
ting ffy-sepen for thirty-seven, which the return
judges, being Locofoco, refused to permit to be
corrected or counted so that one of our members,
who is elected by three votes will not get his seat

committee the true return is established"
