POI{sIenl Notes.

mtttee, having canyassed that State very care
fully, their secretary sends to the ST. Louis
Democrat the following message ".Sdn Fran
CISCO Oct. 4, 1860. Returns from the various
county organizations and clubs to this Office
show a republican strength in this state, of
80, 500 votes. If our news from the October
elections in the east are such as we hope for
and expect, this state is certain for Lincoln
On this you may rely" In 1856 the vote of
California stood thus Buchanan, $1,000.
Fremont 20,691; Fillmore, 90, l65. The gain
to the republican party from the Fillmore men,
the Broderick democrats, and the undecided
voters who will be made republicans by the
influence OF the recent elections, will probably
be sufficient to give the vote OF that state to
Lincoln, in spite Of anything that can be done
by the divided democracy to prevent it. Let
US waitand see.

speech, in the course of which he said =
LOOK AT THE SLAVES IN YOUR WORKSHOPS !!
THEY ARE DRIVEN TO THE POLLS AT THE BECK
OF THEIR MASTERS UNDER THE PENALTY OF
BEING DISCHARGED y Shouts of indignant
denial burst from the audience at this false and
unmanly accusation. 1t ranked in the hearts
of the mechanics and working men of Allegha-
ny, and they burned for the opportunity to re-
flute the SANDER and rebuke the slanderer at
the polls. 1t is said that this in part explains
that tremendous majority in Allegheny county
The Baltimore correspondent Of the New
York World writes "The prospect now is
Some Of the largest Shareholders of Newcas
tie and Sussex are out for him. They have
only nine hundred plurality to overcome, anc
the Douglas men seem anxious to see Lincoln
overcome it"
