ADDRESS TO tbs PEOPLE OF PENNSYLVANIA.
Pennsylvania has spoken in thunder tones in
behalf of the Union, of Industry, of Freedom.
Her people have net at the combined hosts
of sectonalsm, diSunionism, free trade and all
others who sought markets for their suffrages,
and majority of 81, ,0C0 for Governor, twenty
Congtessmen, and more than two thirds of
each branch Of the Legislature, attest the fdel.
ty of our State to the integrity of our insttu-
tions, and the common prosperity Of our coun-
try.
Indiana, Ohio and Minnesota have Joined
the Keystone State in demanding that sectional
discord, wanton profigacy, and the desolation
of the National Government
The decisive battle has been fought-a
nation has been redeemed from disunon and
dishonor by the verdict Of Tuesday last
The issue was made by our foes and accepted
by our friends and millions to-day greet the
triumph as the unerrirg harbinger of our
national disenthralment.
Let the friends of the right not be content
with an ordinary yictory-Abraha Lincoln
can be called TO the Presidency by clear
majority of the people of the United States
if all who shall rejoice at his coming will but
cast their sutfrages for him. To that Majority
Pennsylvania can and will contribute full fifty
thousand We have but TO be faithful to our
great cause, and it is done Let every man
at his post on the great day and the largest
majority ever given in Pennsylvania to a Chief
Magistrate will be cast on the 9th of Novem-
ber for Abraham Lincoln, for Union, for Free
dom, for Frsternity A K. McCLURE.

Evidence of a Demagogue.

The country needs no better evidence
that Douglas is the giant of dema-
gogues, than the course he has pursued
for six months past. When important
measures were to be voted on in Con-
gress, he feigned sore throat" as an
excuse for his absence from the Senate
chamber. He dared not face the mu-
sic. : He allowed JEFF. Davis to snub
him, and Benjamin to castigate him
with meditated malice, without re-
sponse, because his g throat was so
sore that he could not speak. But the
very moment Congress adjourned he
took the stump, and has made not much
less than four electioneering speeches,
of from two to three hours each, every
day since, except Sundays. This
shows that his pretence of a "sore
throat" when important laws were be-
ing made, was all deception-the
false pretence of demagogue of the
first water. Will honest men vote for
such mere demagogue His friends
boast that he has "pluck" but they
can't show the evidence, except in his
rebellion against Buchanan-and that
was entirely personal matter, gov
erned by personal motive. The man
of true pluck will never eowardIy stink
away from danger when the crisis
comes, as Douglas did when important
measures were to be acted on, because
it might affect his political prospects.
Oh that sore throat = Tribune.

Well Said.

Mr.. Jas. p. Clay, like other South
ern pro- slavery orators, has preverse
habit of stigmatizing Mr.. Lincoln as
an Abolitionist The Louisville Jour
nal, alluding to Mr.. Clay's penchant
for this kind of thing towards his
political opponents, very appropriately
says: tH9.i- Sc lsa seifal
If Mr.. Clay is not old enough to
know from his own recollection, he
ought certainly to know from the tes-
timony of others, that his father, his
immortal father, was never candidate
for the Presidency without being con-
stantly and remorselessly denounced by
the whole of the Democratic leaders
and the whole Democratic rank and
file as an abolitionist, thorough and
lifelong abolitionist. The recreant son
ought certainly to know, that the lead
ers and masses of the party, with
which he is now acting, always relied
upon this infamous charge, not less than
upon the charge of bargain and cor.
ruption, to work his ilustrious fathers
destruction. And, knowing this, he
should be especially careful how he
hurts such charge at others, and most
especially careful how he hurls it at a
man soho stood by Henry Clay in eve-
ry struggle for nearly a quarter of q
century, and until the iLlustrioass states.

The nigger came down like wolf on the fold,
With pockets all minus of silver and gold;
And the white of his eye CLEANED Like stars on the
sea, iStili3 t5ItN
Where Patapsco rolled up like deep Galilee.
Like leaves of the forest when summer is green,
A host in the morning with banners was seen.
Like leaves of the forest when autumn hath blown
That host in the evening lay withered and strowp.
For the angel of discord came riding the blast,
And breathed on the motley -hued band as be pass
ed; .-;.- l.s,..
When the blood of Democracy fastened to chill,
And its heart but once heaved, and for ever was
still.
The steed Squatter Sovereignty, fell to the grass,
And bis limbs grew as marble, bis eyes turned to
d glass, mis-
And the foam of his gasping lay white on the turf
And cold as the spray on the rock-beaten surf
And there lay the rider, distorted and pale,
With the dew on his brow and the rust on his mail;
The shops were soon silent, the whiskey alone,
The streets all deserted and delegates gone.
A thousand officials now send up wall
For their idols are broke in the temple of Baa !
And their jolly old party, so boasted and vast,
Has falln at the hands of negro at last.
