PREPARE FOR THE FALL ELECTIONS.

The National Republican Association desire
to call the attention of the opponents of the
present Administration to the importance of a
thorough and systematic circulation and distri-
button Of tracts, speeches, and essays, bearing
upon the important questions now sgitsting the
country.
With this view, they have issued, and wilt
continue to publish, from time to time, the most
important speeches which have been and shalt
be delivered or written.
We trust that all who are interested in de-
feating the Pro Slavery or Administration Party
in the approaching fall elections, will purchase
these documents for grstuitous circulation
among their friends and neighbors. The Asso.
citation are appealed 10 for documents for gra,u.
itous circulation to an extent far beyond their
means. Under these circumstances, and as
Congress is about to adjourn, We appeal to the
friends of the throug houtthe several States
to take this work upon themselves, and see that
their several localities are fully supplied with
the proper kind of documents. Heretofore, this
work has been done by the Members of Con-
gress at their own expense, but after the sd-
journment of Congress this responsibility will
devolve upon other friends of the cause.
The very low price at which these documents
are furnished, which is much less than the cost
of publishing and enveloping, owing TO the fact
that the Association is conducted solely on the
voluntary principle, puts it within the reach Of
every one to aid in their distribution.

The late Buchanan State Convention in
Springfield, ILL.,, had four hundred delegates
from eighty-one counties but the committee
on credentials refused seats to all delegates not
regularly elected by county convention, and
this action reduced the number of official dele.
cations to 48, and threw out Buchanan men
from over twenty counties, who failed to come
provided with formal credentials. The Chicago
Tribune says the Convention was no farce, and
that, before the summer is over, Buccaneers
will be found willing to bet that their ticket will
poll more votes than the Douglas one, and be
second in the race.

An extraordinary quick mail trip from Camp
Scott puts us in possession of advices from that
post to the 18th ult. The news is very interest.
ing. Gen. Johnston was about to be relieved
from the starvation which threatened his army,
by the arrival of the supplies sent forward from
Fort Laramie by Col. Hoffman and Captain
Marcy's command had been heard from, and
was within two hundred miles of Camp Scott
The Mormons have stopped their fight at Provo,
one of the strongest of their settlements, about
forty miles from Salt Lake city. Gen. John

ticiaas who went on to Washington at the
opening of the session, and got the Job of
printing for the House, have sold it out for
1874, 900, SIC, COO in cash and the balance in
notes, and gone home. Wendell, the old print
er, and the present publisher of the Union,
whom they beat, is the purchaser, and will
probably make as much more out of the work,
notwithstanding the Congressional retrench-
ment in the business of printing documents.
Col. Thomas 8. Kane arrived at Philadel.
phia on Friday, after en- absence of Eve months.
During this period he has travelled from New

mistaken, of forty seven days.
