yIIssOURI-THE SOUTH.

We tried to nominate EDWARD BATES for Presi.
dent. because we believed that nomination would
secure Missouri and Delaware to the cause Of
Emancipation in the State and Republcansm in
the Nation, and give us strong prospect of suo-
cess in Maryland as well. With three Slave States
going Republican, it would be pretty hard to make
even fools longer regard ours as " sectional
party
We cannot doso well in these States with Lincoln
as we could have done with Bates; but our friends
will their best. They wimahe no coalitions; they
will not vote for A. in OrdertO take the State from
B, since the contest is clearly Lincoln against the
field, and it is matter of perfect Indifference to rs
that this or that State should vote for this or that
one of the aDt-Republican candidates. We e1-
hort the Republicans in every Slave State to nomi-
nate a clear Lincoln and Hamn Electoral Ticket.
and vote it wherever they can do so without ex-
posing themselves to personal violence at tho
hands Of an overwhelming force.
