III. DrOuth and FAMINE in Knnsas

Kansas appeals for bread. The drouth has
cut Of the crops. There has been no har-
vest in many sections. Suffering and star
vation stare the settlers in the face. These
facts are beyond controversy. 1t is not
''bleeding Kansas" but famine-stricken Kan
sas, that now calls for help. The appeal
must be heard and satisfied from the abun-
dant stores of the older brethren.
That the drOuth in considerable portions of
the Territory has been unprecedented and
disastrous to such an extent as to almost en-
tirely cut of crops of every kind, is ostab-
Hshed by the reports of the local press, Of
resident committees, of persons visiting q sre
this autumn, and of special agents rar out
to collect the means for obtaining 49, to
sustain life until another season. Senator
Seward in opening his speech here, spoke Of
the pressing needs of the people of Kansas,
from results Of his own observations during
his recent visit to Lawrence. He said they
must have help or perish. Messrs. Hyatt and
Army are row travelling over the Territory,
to see which districts arc the most il need Of
help. They give an almost frightful account
Of the desttution Of food and money 70 buy
with, in some of the Oldest most populOus,
and best cultivated counties of Kansas,
Douglas county, IN which Lawrence is
situated, is one Of the most severely aE
hicted, and the people have sent Mr.
JosEPR GARDNER, one of the most substantial,
intelligent, and trustworthy citizens Of the
county, to state the condition Of the peop-e he
represents, and to ask means for their relief
Mr.. Gardner who has the best Of credentials
and references, is now in Cleveland on bis
mission OF mercy, and on consultation it is
thought best to hold public meeting to con-
slider what ought to be done and to take steps
to doit The meeting viii be held on Satur-
day evening, at some place to be announced
tomorrow
The appeal is to The liberal hearts and Chris
tian spirit ofthe peoples who have been bless
ed by the early and latter rains and we trust
it will be generously responded to in time to
enable our Kansas neighbOrs to keep the
gaunt wolf from their doors.

Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1860-10-12

The Cleveland National Democrat Of the
llth IN an appeal to the told Guard to the
Rescue l"t thus "pitohes ina to the Douglas
faction:
FanRticism and folly and madness have had
their day. The party helm had been in the
hands Of men VINO have proved themselves
unskillful, or what is worse, dishonest pilots,
and the National Democracy must now un-
fold their arms and resume their rightful po-
sitiou as the representative men OF the De-
mocracy Of the Union. They have allowed
braggarts 70 usurp their place, in order to let
folly have its run, until 1t has near wrecked
the party. To allow little Douglas faction
to longer usurp the place Of the Democratic
party would be madness in the extreme. 1t
seemed TO be a conceded point that this be
done until the October election, in order TO
test the boast these Douglas leaders made,
t1at they could carry the State with a tornado
like velocity. They had the aid Of the great
er portion Of the National DemOcrats-.hose
that were not for them were not against them,
but preferred their success TO that Of their
opponents-they had Douglas, himself, in the
State, and with him his candidate for Vice
President, with all their uratorieal powers
Where these men went, the Republican ma
iority was increased-much Of the heavy
majority in this county being attributable to
the advent Of Mr.. Douglas and his speech in
the public Park in Cleveland, ,IgGv5puF
The National Democracy of the city meet
this evening at the Breckenridge and Lane
Headquarters in Hoffman Block, on the
corner of Superior street and the public
Square, to take measures to organize the city
and with it the county, on a National Dem
ocratic basis. The State Central Committee
Of the party are even nov, taking measures
to perfect an organization of the State, and
thus to take the first steps again TO make
Cleveland, the county and the State Demo-
cratic. Braggards have had the control long
enough-the old Jackson Guard-the grand
reserve of the Democracy, will now take
their places as the forlorn hope, and viii test
the courage fall who cross blades with them.
They will no longer stand tameiy by and see
the party beat by the folly OF worshiPing one
manLthey will take the field in person, and,
under their Democratic leaders, the chivalric
Breckenridge and the gallant Lane, are will
ing to abide the result of the great battle in
Ohio. .HIt| rrg -re-n E-F

ridge faction with a vengeance. It 'gOes in

The live Chicago Republicans made the
city iubilant Tuesday night as the Peoples
thunder from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indi-
ana followed the flashes frOm the wiresf--
There was a "Hfting up of voices after the
manner of the Honest Old Abe National
Convention, and the Squatterites skunk away
as did Gen. Cass Of old at the "noise and
confusion.V Athalf-past one in the morning
a flight of rockets from the roof of the Press
and Tribune Binding confirmed the glorious
news over the stiil watching city, aud the
wild hurrahs for the three great and vieto-
rious States raug out with earnest enthusi-
asm.
We are glad 10 record that the results on
Tuesday VIII but nerve IT, arms Of the GAL
liant Republicans OF the Prairie State to
thicker and heavier blows. The Press says
Lstus from the outset Of these glorious lid
ings. warn our Illinois Republicans that his
only throws the most weighty responsibility
upon them. We must rebuke Squatterlsm m
the State whose recreant son gave it birth, in
tones that shall answer back these thunders.
Every Republican must fall into line, in all our
COUNTIES. No city or town or voting precinct
in the Prairie State must lose a single vote
that can be added to the grand total Of q Beo-
ple's voice for Freedom and Honest Old Abe.
In clOsingan able article on the great vic
tory, the Press and Tribune ftly remarks:
In this moment Of triumph when we might
safely exult over a PROSTATE enemy, one
cannot refrain from pointing cut another
reason for rejoicing which none should over
look. It's this, that the nominee Of the par
tvisaman of that all-embracing patriotism,
that coolness and courage which hts him Tor
the place 10 which he will be called, and for
any emergency that may arise. He IS not
zeslot OF a fanatic who will attempt by a sln-
gle hlQ e ii aSFt tAst The 5s u:
Of the Union; nor is be milk-sop to be
frightened into submission to demands which
are not found in the Constitution nor in any
great national necessity. He viii hold the
balance with a steady and impartial hand /;
and long before his Administration closes
there viii be few who win not bless the wise
and pacific measures which viii mark his
sway, and this great victory, which made him
the ruler and father Of the nation.

RunIon and OonrusIon.

From the first we have denounced any Fu-
sion with the Breckinridgers, deeming them,
as they proved on Tuesday in Pennsylvania.
Ohio and Indiana, base and trucking desert
ers to the camp Of the enemy. With traitors
such as these boiling fusionists have proved
themselves, there can be no union without
dishonor and shame Democrats who viii
not sustain the regularly nominated Presi-
dental candidates are now no longer so, ex-
cept in a name which they traduce and ma
ligu. In Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana it
is this wretched banditti who float the Breck-
inridge, disunion flag. Hand in hand with
the Black Republicans they have helped to
consummate whatever of defeat the inyinci-
bic Democracy have sustained. They exult
with a demouiac joy, believing their iniqmty
has accomplished the victory of a foe, base
enough and bold enongh to accept the CO.
horts of any faction, however lost to honor,
manhood, decency or Democracy.

The Buffalo Express in an article on tn
October Elections in Pennsylvania, Indian,
and Ohio, thus compliments the Buckley
State:
OF Ohio we speak with satisfaction. Tht

sanguine expectations of their friends Sh'
is among the jewels in the Republican coro
net, and, true as steel, will stand by the csust

ready won, though the battle is scarcely hal
fought through.

Ths Courre..ionoI PI.otion,. =

The State Journal of the llth, thus sums
up the results and probabilities:
While Ohio and Pennsylvania have gone
Republican by heavily increased majorities,
and Indiana has fallen into the ranks of Re-
publican States, the indications are that in
the aggregate delegations Of the three States
the Republicans have sustained a loss of Con-
gresmen. Indiana has elected eight GER
tainly, and probably ten Republican mem
bers Of Congress out Of eleven. In Ohio the
Republicans, have, from present indications,
elected thirteen members and the Democrats
eight, e net Republican loss of two. In
Pennsylvania, 50 far as heard from, the Re-
pnblicans lose two members certainly, and
probably three In the aggregate TINS far,
it will be seen the Republicans sustain a Ger
tain net loss Of three members of Congress
There may be gains in Pennsylvania, report
ed hereafter, which viii change these figures.
u Generally, the heavy Republican gains re-
ported in Ohio and Pennsylvania are in dis
triets already strongly Republican, and where
an increased vote was not needed for local
success

The result yesterday has dispelled all the

and it is the greatest victory ever achieved,
considering the untoWard circumstances with
which we had to contend.
