The Pennsylvania Fusion.

The Herald of yesterday, publishes letter from
Andrew Stewart of Pa, dated at UniOntOwn, and
addressed to gentleman of Virginia, in which Mr..
Stewart says, that there is truth in the report that
the Fillmore and Fremont parties have united If
Mr.. Stewart means TO say, that as yet no formal
union has been made on an electoral ticket, he is
correct but if he is to be understood denying
fusion on the State ticket to be voted for the 14th
of this month-to-day week, then he is contradcted
by the public facts of the Every opponent of
Democracy, whether Filmourners or Fremounter, is
called upon to support the same ticket, and that
ticket composed of majority of Fremounters. We
don't know exactly what Mr.. Stewart calls this. We
would call it fusion. 1t is also noteworthy fact,

ranks of the usioniss, then we are much mistaken,

they have? 1t is doubtful. They have deferred
thus long, so that they may arrange matters. But

difficulty in believing you, and really, with the facts
