las paper, edited by Mr.. Diffcmbach, the
talented Deputy Secretary of the Conn
monwealth under Governor Packer, thus
nobly speaks in favor of the compromise
recommended by the State Committee
On the Cd inst, the Democratic State
Executive Committee met at Philadelphia,
and, after much discussion, with great
unanimity, agreed that the Democratic
Electors, if successful, should vote for
Judge Douglas if their votes would elect
him, but in case they would not then to
vote for Major Breckenridge; if their votes
would elect neither, then to vote for either
as they pleased. This proposition was a
fair one, and if agreed to by the people
with some degree of ofunanimity, would pre-
vent the election Of Lincoln to the Presi.
dency. But no sooner was the adoption
announced than the Republicans and their
ally, the Philadelphia Press, set up tres
mendous cry against it. They howl a
gainst it ecause they see in it destruction
to themselves, as obedience to it would
clearly carry the State for Douglas and
Foster, and thus defeat Lincoln and Cur
tin. In I'D lition to these, too, there are
some Democrats, who in their zeal to sup
port the regular nominee, to the exclusion
of all others, oppose the compromise be,
cause they are unwilling to compromise.
An effort is now beiug made to get up
another Electoral ticket, through the in
strumentality Of National Executive
Committee. The member Of that body
from this State X. j. Ualdeman] is bust
ly engaged in endeavors to effect disor-
ganization by the formation of another
Electoral ticket. And for what earthly
practical purpose? Nearly all the pres
ent Electors, (and perhaps all) are sup
porting the election of Mr. Douglas as the
regular nominee of the party, and if they
are elected they will vote for him, unless
they cannot elect him but can elect Breck-
inridgc. What is the new ticket to do
different from this! Vote only for Doug
las. But what chance will they have to
vote for him if they run against the rcgu.
lar nominations made at reading, and thus
divide the party? Not any more than
though they were women. Then is it not
