PennrrIYanIn Election.

The Cincinnati Enquirer calls attention to some i'm
portant facts in connexion with the Pennsylvania
election It states, what is true that CURrS, who has
Just been elected Governor Of Pennsylvania, not
nominated a. Republican Convention, but by an organ
lation which called itself the Peoples party which EN-
braeed not only the Republicans, but large proportion
Of the BELL and EvERErT men He nominated, in-
deed as the candidate of all the Bell and EyrRErT men
a. well as the Republicans. He was brough. into the
6eld before the Presidential commenced and al
though portion Of the Union in Philadelphia with
dow their snpport from hi "a - -vnvsh hifasalf for
NCoLN ihe great body Of that party considering them
selves as houorably committed his support, continued
{, until the end Of the race. This is evident from the fact
that in Philadelphia where FEENoST obtained but 600
votes on. Of 600 and where the body Of the Oppos
ton votes are for Ball and EyEEEr, CURTIN got nearly
Al 600 votes.
II union is now made between the two national par
ties upon one electoral ticket which is understood and
expected viii be the case LINCOLN will doubtless lose
Pennsylvania BY heavy majority. Thirty thousand ma
iory can be given sgaius, him in Philadelphia alone
The vote for FRExoNT in 1886 was but 47 900 in Penn
svvana, while tie Buchanan and FILLMORE parties re-
csived over 800 600 votes Il IS not possible for LIN
coin 10 carry Pennsylvania if the efforts which are max
ug for cordial union Of the DoUGLAs and JOHNSON and
Ball and EvERKrr men, upon a common electoral ticket
succeed, which Ne have no doubt will be the case The
Republicans are in great danger Of being sangune Of
carrying Pennsylvania fos LINCOLN account Of their

his heart does not respond Let him act up to his

THE UNION CAUSE IN CHESTERFIELD.

TO The Editor off Wig:
The good cause is rapidly progressing in county.
Too much praise cannot be awarded the "Whig for its
noble efforts in behalf Of the Union party and for the
immense amount of true light which il dfusng in this
heretofore beughed region You keep your readers well

BILE designs OF the Yancey Breckenridge Democracy and
they actively and periodically reflect the information
thus obtained.
Our gallant Elector. Or. John W. Wake, is laborpg
indeatgaby in behalf Of the Union ticket He has made
telling speeches az many points in the county He
hibits facts and enorces his arguments with much
cearness and power that they prove absolutely resis-
BILE to every honest mind open TO conviction. His ap
peals in behalf Of the Union touching and elo
quent TO move TO tears all but those who are ALSO
utey bent upon efecting its destruction. II may be
truly said Of John Wistar Wake that he Yields with
equal skill the,"kee and flashing scmetar of Saadn"
and the 'ponderous battle of a Richard" more
unnching Wing and truer patriot does no: live. Long
may he wave.
The Douglas wing of the Democracy claim to be in
the ascendancy in this county. Ny own observations
lead me believe that they are at least equal
the Brecknrdgers and that very they will leave
them far in he rear. There have been many changes
here in favor of Bell and Everett and the rabid
Democrats are becoming SO dsheartened to acknowl
edge that their flag, heretofore invincibe must neva-
bly, trail in the dust in the coming contest in the Old
Dominion.
Allow me to congratulate you, Mr. Editor, and all true

time with the gentlemen representing the Douglas and
Bell parties spoke the day out concluding his remarks
at late hour. His speech exceedingly tedious, be-
ing confined mainly TO the quarrel between Douglas 4
Co., and Breckenridge Co. and upon the whole If il
had any satisfactory decided effect to convince
the Dougas party that they the true representative
of the Democratic principles that Douglas the nom
nee Of the Democratic parity and that the Breckinrdg
ers had well earned the name OF secessiouists.
On to-day, Mr.. Stuart, the Douglas Elector, made a
speech in which he threw hot shot into the rebel camp
He vindcated his ably and manfuly, showing by
unerriDg Democratic evidence from all quarters OF the
country that Douglas the true representative of we'll
established principles of the National Democracy. The
Douglas men, of whom there are not few in this coun-
ty went away rejoicing, well satisfied with the manner
in which their champion sustained his cause.
After Mr.. Stuart concluded his speech, Mr. John J..
Jackson, Jr took the stand and held the audience for
two hours altho, they were wearied with tedious
discourse distractions, yet more attentive audience
is seldom seen than they we're drinking in the powerful
and conclusive arguments Of Mr. Jackson in favor Of the
election of Bell and Everett and Of the preservation Of
the Union by sustaining the Constitution, and the
forcemelt of the Laws Mr.. Jackson's speech was TO
say the least Of it. eloquent able and forcbe effort
have seldom witnessed complete vindication OF
the cause OF great and growing party, and more

Jackson on this had long been acquainted
with the reputation Of Mr. Jackson but had never heard

stands in the foremost rank in this section Of the State
He is in the canvass, and hope he will continue
