A CANDID ADMssIoS.-A correspondent of
the New York Journal of Commerce, writing
from Washington, under date of the 18th
inst, says
AS to political prospects in Iowa, nothing
favorable can be said. Lincoln will sweep
everything before him, even in Indiana. The
Breckmridge opposition 10 D0Hgyas has rendered
this certain"
The Journal Of Commerce is a supporter Of
the Breckenridge Yancey ticket. What that
ticket may do in the North, if the people do
not ignore it, we see here confessed. re do
not doubt that the object of many leaders in
pressing the Breckiuridge-Ya ncey ticket in
the free States is to elect LINCOLN. Mr..
YASCEY will visit the North to help it along,
thus playing into the hands of those who
have pledged themselves to secession in the
event of LINCoLN's election. The conserva-
tive Union men North must counteract his
efforts, and the efforts of all who are pressing
the disunion ticket.

Sounds from, the union EEL.

Within the past three weaks meetings have
been held ia every one of the New England
States either preparatory to or effective OF
State organization of the Union party. In
every one of the original States, North and
South, the canvass is going on with an ac-
tivity that even the friends of Bell and Ever
EFT did not anticipate, and the Union party is
the only party that will have an electoral
ticket in every State OF the Union. That the
prospects of the success of the party are in
creasing with wonderful rapidity is evident
as we'll from the agreeable tone and temper
OF the Union party papers (Which, by the
way, are also rapidly increasing in number,
New York alone having now thirteen to four
a month ago, and three of these thirteen ad-
vocated Fremont in '56) as from the evident
alarm and abusive course of the Republican
journals. In New York and Pennsylvania,
the loss of either of which to the Republicans
is fatal to their success, the course OF the
canvass is especially gratifying, as. showing
a determination on the part of national con-
servative men to abandon the sectional pur
poses of the Republicans, and to unite to
give them an overwhelming defeat, which re-
suit is as sure as the coming of the election
day. ktlddeiuhia EreRin9 Journal

TAYLOR prominent before the public, As a
Independent Of party, supported Gen. CAss,
but was o. a hunting excursion the day of

this the Louisville Democrat says:

\ Pertinent Call CONFORMATION.

= Ec~tinenI Cali Tor Information.
The Louisville Democrat, in the following
article, asks for Information which the public
ought to have:
We hope Mr. Breckenridge, when he takes
the stump, will give us the letter of Mr.. En-
win informing him of his nomination by the
Richmond Convention. The whole country
knows the material of which that Convention
was composed. Mr. Rhctt one of the chiefs.
said it was sectional convention - that it
was not based on national PRINCIPLES. He
said 1t arose out of the debris '.of the only ma
tional party'--the Democratic party-and
intended to cOunteract its policy.
Mr.. Burt, another. said "he had not ono
clement of national Democracy in him. He
said she would be recreant not only to friend
ship, but to principle, if he found himself in
the ranks of the national Democracy. He
added: fE
Il will say, if you will allow me only a
few words, for more than sixteen years have
entertained an opinion which has never been
changed. 1t was my misfortune, in 1851, to
differ with friends whom loved as dearly as
man loves near friends; and, from Febru-
airy, 1874, | have never doubted, so help me
God, that these Southern States would soon
have to choose between slavery and dis
union "
Mr. Burt thus held forth in the convention
in South Carolina that appointed delegates
to Richmond; and after he said it, he received
all the votes of the body, or nearly all, as a
delegate to Richmond. These men refused
to go to Baltimore at all; intending to have
no utilization with the national Democratic
party.
Aud what did these men say in their letter
to Breckinridgeg Why was not the letter
published along with the reply? a letter
now without the word of Mr.. Breckenridge
that it was the Identical one he received
would be very unsatisfactory. Let US hear
what the genuine letter contained. 1t was
not published with the reply, and now the
genuine letter. We know these men are dis
unionists. 1t is bad enough that they are
satisfied with Mr.. Breckinridge. They sought
to promote their object by his nomination,
and all know what that is.

~- The true condition of the canvass is
well illustrated by the fact that the Republic
can organs are vigorously engaged in an en-
deavor to prove Mr.. BELL to be a slave pro-
pagandist; while the BREcKINmDcE organs
are engaged in the same sort of experiment
TO prove that he is an abolitionist This
simple fact shows who are opposing Mr.. BELL
with the greatest vehemence.
