We are sure that our Wing and American friends
throughout the State perceive and feel the necessity Of
thorough and efficient organization of forces the
earliest practicable moment if would make absolutely
certain the carrying Of the electoral Of Virgins for
Bell and Everett That have clearly and indsputa
bly, our power 10 redeem the State and achieve proud
and glorious victory for candidates and our cause no
reasonable man entertains momentary doubt Never
before in all past experience have the chances been
50 bright and suspicious. The Dsunion and squattsr
Sovereignty factions Of the compact and triumphant
Democracy at daggers points with each other
and neither can Weld % the other without base surren
der Of political principle and humiliatng sacrifice Of
personal pride, dignity and honor No attempt com
promise-no coalition electoral ticket can cure the dis
sensOns and divisions existing between them. Indeed
opinion is that any compromise upon coalition cleo
toral tcket-that is ticket composed in part Of Doug
las and Breckenridge men, or instructed to vote for either
oatsid States may dieate-w be better for US more
conducive 70 the success Of Bel and Everett in Virginia
than two separate tickets Put up such coalition to-
morrow and thousands Of both Breckenridge and Doug
las men would Indignantly refuse support it. and would
necessarily be driven range themselves in behalf OF
Bel and Everett It within our own personal know

would consider themselves politically disgraced, lost to
principle and TO all Of right BY voting for eoai-
ton ticket here in Virginia after the separation Of the
two wings at Baltimore upon an alleged point Of sacred
and upbending principle That coalition scheme there
fore be carried out in practice among indie
pendent intelligent and patriotic Virginia people. And
Conventions Of politicians can bind the free pee
pie Of the Old Dominion the support Of any such
principed coalition device for holding to the spois
As for ourselves therefore, care not the snap OF
finger whether the Douglas and Breckenridge fac
tons together, in support Of q common coalition

There are seventyfve thousand as true and noble

ever drew the breath OF life. Some Of them to be sure
