They DOut on New York.

| Up TO last Tuesday, the Locotoco talk was al
about Pennsylvania and Indiana. Lincolni
friends having whipped out their meretriciou:
and unnatural union, Pennsylvania is dropped
like hot potato, and back they 60 again, brag
girg Of tho great things they ahon' IN ~
in New York. The uncounted millions which
were to be thrown across the line, to debaucl
the Old Key Stone State, are now TO be kept al
home, and used it would seem, to buy up theil
own men-t will take some money, we should
think to induce the foreign population of Ger
mans and Irish to vote for a ticket of broken
down KnOw-Nothings, and it will not be surpri
sing, that they should fail in the a,temp,-at
leas: so things look now.
Republicans of Michigan. All this Locofoce
talk about carrying the State of New York, i.
| twaddle. They don't expect to do it, and if they
do expect it, the more fools they. New York i:
firm, united, and imprcgnable, against all com
bined assaults of Douglas, Breckenridge and Bell
, and true to the man of her choice, Abraham
Lincoln.
Here what the Republican Executive Commit
TO THE REPUBLICANS OF THE UNION
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE Room,
As.or House, ". Y, Oct. 10, 1860.
The Presidential contest is concluded, SO far
as the opponents of the Republican party are
concerned. A Congressional District in Missouri
was the first 10 express its approval Of the ac-
ton of the Chicago Convention by the election
to Congress of member Of that body-an able
and gallant representative OF the principles OF
the Republican party. The Free States OF Yer.
mont and Maine, with characteristic patriotism,
responded to the action of Missouri; and now
those great and powerful members of the con-
federacy, Pennsy lvania, Ohio and Indiana, an.
nOunce themselves in favor of the Republican
cause, and thus assure its triumph in November.
We shall be pardoned, while we d-claim in
advance, as We earnestly do, any indulgence in
an offensive partisan spirit, for pointing to these
manifestations of a wholesome and salutary pub
lie sentiment with umxed pleasure.
But while it is certain that the nominee of the
Chicago Convention is to fill the high Office of
President of the United States, the duty of
Republicans is, by no means, discharged. When
he occupies the Presidential chair, the response
bility of inaugurating and establishing a wise
and bene6cent policy for the purpose of secu-
ring good government will devolve upon him.
He can do nothing without Congress which is
kindly disposed toward him. To secure such a
Congress, let no Republican believe, for a sin.
gle moment, that he is entitled to exemption
from labor until the closing of the polls in No
vember.
As the representatives of the Republican par.
ty Of the Union, upon whom the conduct of this
campaign has devOlved, We heartily congratulate
you upon the happy results already occurred, and
We earnestly exhort YOU to renewed and unceas-
ing efforts until our triumph is conplete-a tri-
umph which is only desirable because it will give
peace and prosperity to the country, and hope
to the world.
By order of the National Executive Committee.
EDWIN D. MORGAN, Chairman.
GEORGE G. FoGG, Secretary.
