Uncontrovertable Facts,

1t is fact that cannot be denied, that
whoever is elected President is bound to
carry out the platform on which he il
elected, or be branded with the name of
a traitor to his party; and it is not very
likely to suppose that Gen. Mcclellan or
any one else would accept the nomination
with the intention Of deserving his party and
disregarding the wishes of that party, after
they had placed him in power; therefore
we conclude that whoever accepts nomi-
nation, accepts it with the intention of car
rying out the party platform. Party lead
ers are strong power, and party Presi-
dent has to do their bidding SIS much in
shaping his policy as in the adoption of his
cabinet. 1t is another undisputable fact
that the platform adopted by the Chicago
Conyentionwas suggested and dictated by the
ultra Peace Democrats, and that the candi-
date for Vice President was nominated to
comply with the wishes of the same wing
of the Party. Mcclellan, we have no hest
tation in saying, was nominated to reconcile
the war democrats to the Ticket, and to Sc
cure loyal votes, thereby standing some
show of being elected; for here another
fact appears, That no man could be elected
to the Presidency by majority vote, I'M
less some scheme was adopted by whichshe
could obtain large number of loyal votes,
therefore Mcclellan was chosen; for in the
first place he is sociable, an agreeable
man, obliging and not willing to give offence
consequently he is pliable, and can on very
short notice change his base'-witness his
military career And if he should chance
to be elected, no matter what his intentions
were, he would be obliged to change his base
to suit his political supporters, and in ar
incredible short space of time, whether he
would want to or not, he would put an end
to the United States, and that for ever, for
his party supporters are opposed to the war
and would not let him prosecute it on any
conditions. This every thinking man should
if he does not know, would bring US tc
speedy ruin, for if this war is not prosecu
ted to its final object, all the blood and
treasure expended in its prosecution so fal
is irretrievably lost, and our beloved coun
try will be in ruins, yea worse ruins thar
the Ruins of Babylon. God grant that The
loyal men of the North may see the result
of supporting this white flag democracy
ard before it is for ever too late decide
10 abandon it to its fate.

ELECTORAL Votes.

The Electoral College is reduced by
the absence of the rebel States to two
hundred and twenty six. A majority
elects, and one hundred and fourteen
votes now makes a majority. Above
we have one hundred and nineteen GER
tain, for Mr.. Lincoln. Let them wran-
gle as they may then, for their chances
in Pennsylvania and New Jersey-this
settles the question.
1t will be seen that I have left wholly
out of the above list the States of New
York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Connetci-
cut, New Jersey, Kentucky and Mis-
souri,. Give every one Of them to the
Peace Democracy, and they would fall
short Of success. / know thatin each.one
of them our friends have strong hopes,

SUCCESS ALREADY ASSURED AND WHY.
Correspondence to the Cincinnati Gazette.]
That which in no fortni ght Of the past
four months, till the last, could have
been said, is now undisputable. Unless
some unforeseen circumstances should
within the next month, derange all cal
culations the result Of the Presidential
election is already assured, and what re-
mains is mere question of majorities.
Some wonderful turn of fortune might
enable the rebel armies TO defeat Mr..
Lincoln-no power at the North can
possibly do it, unless through sheer con-
fdence his friends should now neglect
their work.
Readers of the Gazette will bear me
witness that have not erred on the
side of being over sanguine. I am sure
that am more cautious than ever in
thus declaring the absolute certainty of
Mr.. Lincolns election. Look at the
electoral votes. Here are the States
which every man in his nsesknews to
be sure for the Union ticket.

shielding you from danger, let it come from
what quarter it may. 4 know that few
individuals cannot resist torrent of error
and passion such as has swept the South
into rebellion but you can point out, SO
that we may know who desire government
and those who insist on war and its desc
lation.
You might as well appeal against the
thunder storm as against these terrible
hardships of war. They are inevitable, and
the only aooy the people Of atlanta can hope
once more to lios IN peace and quiet at home,
IS to stop this acar, which can alone be done
by admitting that it began in error, and is
perpetuated in pride. We don't want your
negroes or your horses or your houses or
your land, or anything you have; but we
do want and will have just obedience to
the laws of the United States. That zoe
aoiU haze, and if it involves the destruction
of your Improvements we cannot help il.
You have heretofore read public sentiment
in your newspapers, that live by falsehood
and excitement, and the quicker you seek
for truth in other quarters, the better for
you.
[ repeat, then, that, by the original com
pact of government, the United States had
certain rights IN Georgia, aohich haze neoer
been relinquished AND MEYER WILL BE /; that
the South began war by Selling forts, arse
nails, minis, custom houses, etc, ETC., long
before Lincoln was installed, and before the
South had one jot or title of PROPAGATION.
|, myself have seen in Missouri, Kentucky,
Tennessee and Mississippi, hundreds and
thousands of women and children fleeing
from your armies and desperados, hungry,
and with bleeding feet. In Memphis, and
Vicksbarg, Mississippi, we fed thousands
upon thousands of the families of rebel
soldiers left on our hands, and whom we
could not see starve. Noao, that qcar comes
home to you, you feel Gerry diferent-you
.depreeate its horrors, but did not feel them
aohea yoe sent car loads Of soldiers and an
munitaon and moulded shells and shot to
carry acar into Kentucky and Tennessee,
and.desolate the homes ofhuadseds md thou
sands Of good TeQpze, aoho only ASKED to line
in peace at their old homes, and aua9er the
government Of their -izheritance. But these
comparisons are idle. | want peace, and
believe it can only be reached Through
Union and war, and | will ever conducl
war purely with view to perfect and early
success.
But, say dear sirs, when that peace does
come, yea may earl on me for anything
Then will i share with you the last cracker,
and watch with you to shield your homes
aad families against danger from any quar-
ter. Now, you must go, and take with you \
the old and feeble; feed and nurse them,
and build for them in more quiet places
proper habitations to shield them against
the weather until the mad passions of men
cool down, and allow the Union and peace
once more to settle on your old homes at
Atlanta.
Yours in haste,

Late News.

The news for the past week has been
mainly good, and we are happy to state
is growing better every day. At the
last advices from the front Grant was
closely investing Richmond, his lines
now extend from Chapin's Bluff to
White Oak Swamp, at distance Of on
ly FIVE or six miles from the city. It is
asserted by rebel prisoners and refugees,
that JEFF. Davis and his Cabinet have
fed from Richmond. Lee is reported
to be acting as Military Dictator, and as
his retreat in the direction Of the We'll
don Railroad is cut off, it is thought he
will concentrate his force in Richmond
and fight the life or death struggle there.
We are daily looking for the news Of a
fearful battle, but we confidently hope
it will be a victory, and decisive one
too. ~
The route Of Early by Sheridan was
complete, he has been driven from the
Shenandoah Valley, with no possible
chance of regaining foot of lost terri
tory At the last accounts Early was
retreating with small part of his form
er army, said to be only 10000 nen,
and they without any regimental organ
ization. a i'aa9
Price has made another raid into Mis-
souri,, for the purpose of plumber, and
having large force, has been more sue
cessful than could have been wished.
Gen. Ewing is now massing his forces,
and before long Price will doubtless be
compelled to skedaddle, but not without
doing an immense amount of damage,
and committing some unprecedented
outrages.
Adyices from Mobile state that most
of the vessels of Admiral Farragut's
fleet have been sent off on other duty,
in connection with the blockade service,
and that only two of his large gunboats
are now in Mobile Bay, but these are
continually menacing the city as that the
rebel troops there cannot be withdrawn

There are substantial reasons for all
this confidence. Since the Chicago Con-
vention, [ have been in Missouri, Hi.
nois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Del.
aware and Maryland. There was every
where the same overwhelming reaction
in popular feeling, started by the bold
ness Of treason at Chicago and stimu-
lated by the splendid successes Of our
arms and the universal convictions that
the 9ebsllion visibly draws near its end.
A month before all had been gloom and
depression; to military disasters were
added complaints of Executive mistakes;
men were looking to new convention
and another nomination as the doubtful
remedies that alone presented posi-
bility of saving us from utter defeat
Now all this is changed. The news from
Atlanta and the news from Chicago COM
bined to brace the public mind as no
tonic in the Dispensatory ever braced
the nerves of an invalid.
Meanwhile the.nanks close up. Clio
rious old Ben Waae, too frank ever to
conceal dissatisfaction, mounts the
stump and gives all the more weight to
his denunciations of Mcclellan by the
unconcealed dislike to his own candi-
date, he is conquering for the good of
the country. Winter Davis leads the
radical emancipationists of Maryland in
the same direction. Fremont with
draws. Horace Greeley goes heartily
into the ,cantest, sthe man who has more
personal reasons for disliking Mr.. Lin
coin than any other Union leader, mag
unanimously oyerlooks gross personal
affronts, and sinks all personal consid-
erations, that he may give the weight
of his great name and influence to the
country in promoting the Union scasse.

NoTIcEABLE.-The administration
papers have almost universally publish
ed.the Baltimore and Chicago platforms
side by side. Many keep them stand
ing in their columns. On the other
hand we have not observed the two
platforms Published together in any
paper that supports Mcclellan. Very
few of the Mcclellan papers say any
thing about their platform. Why IS it!

Spirit of M cClellan's Supporters.

The blatant treason that was the con-
spicuous element in the speeches of the
Democratic leaders at Chicago, was not a
more significant indication of the true spir-
it and purposes of the political demagogues
who are seeking to elect MCCLELLAN and
PENDLETeNethan some of the transparencies
and designs carried at McCLELLAN meetings.
At the recent Democratic ratification in
Philadelphia a transparency was paraded
through the streets by Little Macs support
ers, which is thus described by the Press
of that city:
es'Fhe next remarkable display that came
under our notice was transparency, aabout
six feet byeight feet. This was carried in
wagon by the delegation from the Seven
,teentn Ward, where majority was cast
recently in opposition to the soldiers voting.
This transparency fbore as its motto 'The
Grace ot,the sUnioaa.' It was evident that
the artist who DID the work paid some at
tention to the display. Itrepresented Pres
ident Lincoln and his~Cabinet officers in a
hearse. This melancholy vehicle was drawn
by the most prominent Generals in the
American army now engaged in enforcing
obedience te-the laws. Fac Generals were
represented as having the bodiesror forms
of jackasses or horses, with human heads.
Expressions, supposed to have emanated
from'the Fps of each General, were painted
in black letters, but not sufficiently distinct
as to be readily see or deciphered. Beneath
the figures were the.nalnes of Lieut.. Gen.
y. 5. Grant and Major Generals, President
Lincoln and Cabinet officers.

As to the others I do not think there

Greedy a private note from him dated

though the enemy will move all below
to beat us. The concurrent testimony
of all other leaders III New York says
the same thing. As TO Connecticut I

the result. Of Indiana more must be
known in Cincinnati than Washington.
