LINCOLN RATIFICATION MEETINGS.
The recent Ovations to the white and red roses
here are regarded by practical people Us ratifca-
ton meetings for Mr.. Lincoln. They have no other
value politically. The real game of the managers,
like Mr. Slide is if possible to throw the election
into the House, and by an angry and protracted
struggle there to devOlve it ultimately on the
Senate and thus secure Mr.. Lane the Presidency.
To achieve this object large sums of money will
be raised and thrown into the close and doubtful
States. Vigilance is necessary to prevent an ex-
tended repetition of the frauds by which it is now
positively ascertained Pennsylvania was carried in
1856. The Cotton States are prosperous, with
full crops and high prices, and will subscribe liber
ally to preserve their absolute control of the Gov
eminent in its foreign and domestic policy and the
expenditure of $00,OOO,OOO year. .asL
