Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1860-09-01

ett aud the Republican Parties in this State
are now all in the political field with thei
candidates for State Officers.
The nomination Of Gov. Morgan and Lieut.
Gov Campbell, by reclamation, at syracus,
last week, was tribute and compliment tc
"hOnest, faithful, and capable public SER
wants. The jobbers, the plunderers, the
lobby, including struck and dioker' Repub-
cans Americans and Democrats, did mot in
tend that Gov, Morgan should be re-nouiiua-
ted. Men were sent out early into the 'ru-
raj districts to work and to pack againsi
him; but the honest straightforward Re
publicans Of the country, the real FaiJ-sphtteTs,
told them to 60 home-that they were for
the reelection of Gov. Morgan, and his
nomination could not and would not be pre-
vented.
Very few men have ever been tried in the
furnace of political affiction more intensely
than Gov. Morgan and very few men have
ever come out more thoroughly free from
even the smell OF damaging FIRE upon his
garments. Gov. NJ. was nobly sustained by
Mr., James S. Wadsworth and his friends, and
the reward Of political and official integrity,
is in the unanimous nomination of Governor
Morgan and his most worthy and incorrupti-
bic associate, Lieut.. Governor Campbell.
OF the election of he Republican ticket in
this State next November there is not the
least doubt It matters not in New Yolk,
whether the Republicans fight their enemies
IN sisgle regiments, or in one combined
aud united battalion Victory is sure and
certain ......
In 1856 Col. Fremont received 27eoOO
votes, Buchanan 1876, 600, Fillmore $4,000,
Total vote, 595,OOO. The vote this year will
be over 60OOOO At least one-halE and
think, from the best information l can get,
that more than two-thirds Of the Fillmore
vote of 1856 will be cast for Mr.. Lincoln next
November But give him only half and
with the natural increase Of the Republican
vote, Mr.. Lincoln viii receive next Novem-
Der, in the Empire State, at least THREE
HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
VOTES, enough for all practical purposes.
Many of the leading men of the American
Party look with loathing upon the fusion Of
some of their old friends, with the Douglas
Suuatter-Sovereign-Dred tt-Slave-Protec-
tion-in-the- -Territory-Party, and many Of the
Americans do not like the Declaration Of John
Bell, in which he says;
soThe question is whether mutual trust
and confidence shall continue to animate
and encourage mutual efforts in promoting
and multiplying common benefits, or wheth-
er mutual hatred and distrust shall step IN
to check all progress; 10 distract and con-
found all Joint endeavors for the common
welfare; in fine, to entail upon the country
all the evils of endless discord. That is the
question. Anld qDhen g0H prGSc5t that issue to
ne, say giUe me separations give me disan1onj
qiUe ne anything IN preference to a Union Sus-
tanned only By pOOeT By Constitutional G'ld te9at
tics, a0ith0ut reciprocal trust and confidence.
If olf, future career Is to Be Ogcof eternal diS-
cord, Of anq7y crjntiHdtio5l and reertRltndtioN,

ces. If am 10 be at peace, let 1t be peace IN
reality; and if am to be at war, let me
know it at once, that l may put my house IN
order, and be ready to meat the consequent
ces.
Here is the Union and the CoRsdtutiOn
Candidate, for the one and in support Of the
other as long as SIaUeyy is extended and pro
tected. I think the mild and amiable Mr..
Bell man as lDelt get ready to meet the coHSe-
qsIeaces, for l believe as Mr.. Sewerd said in
bis capital Boston speech, ''ths triumph Of the
Republicans this gear IS an end 70 the P010er Of
Slavery"
. Put down the Empire State as all right,
and whether the enemy run three tickets or
one against the gallant LINCOLN, count New
York IN.
In New Jersey everything looks hopeful
and encouraging. Bell and Breckenridge are
united in that old Revolutionary State; and
they are united only to be defeated. The
Americans in New Jersey say they cannot
stand upon the Breekenridge-SiaEe Plank
Platform. The Hon. Wm. Z. Dayton, Judge
Marsh, J. P. jackson, Esq !, f. Frelinghuysen,
ESQ. lwho was for Fillmore in 1866, Speak
er Pennington, Hon. D. S. Gregory, and Mr..
Denning Duer, and host Of other strong and
earnest men, are doing YeOmen service for
Lincoln and Hamlin Ia the Jerseys.
As our Southern, and some Of our North .
ern brethren, are inclined TO think that Got
ton is King, your readers and the public will
be interested in the following extract of q
letter written by Mr.. John Guy Vassar, OF
Poughkeepsie, n. Y, from the Province Of
Angola, April - 1860. Mr.. Yassar has
travelled more lridely than any living Ameri-
can, on this Earth, and is one of the most
genial and intelligent Of men. copy from

@The English are making great efforts to
introduce the culture of cotton IN Africa, so
as 10 render them less dependent upon the
United states. II heard at Akin, on the Gold
Coast, that q few bales had been shipped to
Liverpool. In Liberia | learned that the
Manchester Cotton association had sent
rredals and ESQ sterling as premiums, 1Or
the encouragement Of the growth of the plant
n that district. I learned also at Bohny
that two bales purchased at Rabba on the
Niger had been brought down by the Rain
bow, attached to the Niger expedition, which
is the FIRST from that country. The captain
reports he could have filed his ship with un-
cleaned cotton. The price of the cleaned
was from TO 4 cents per ID, our currency,
uncleaned about cent. Another report said

5k Yards Of cotton velvet and lbs. salt
