teaied at Ibe polls, for those who are declared
beaten TO accuse The other side with unfair
ness and the like. But accusation IN these
cases is most often rested on no better basis
than the feeling Of disappointment and dis
content which succeeds failure At the bal
lot-box.
But public justice Is not satisfied with such
loose and groundlcss imputaticns Of dishon-
esty, whether made against individual voters or
whole political party. When an election is
held, and the issue Of it Is regularly ascer-
tanned and proclaimed, II is TO bo presumed
TO have been legal, free, and fair election,
unless the contrary Is made evident in due
and lawful manner. If that should be done,
then the election is pronounced void by the
authorities having the right 10 pass upon the
question. II Is not, indeed, always possible
to show concluslyely in a court of law that
the elective franchise has been wrongfully
interiered with or faudulently exercised.
But the law can take no account of such disa-
bilities or accidents. II deals and can deal
only with facts made apparent In some formal
and authentic way.
II, then, an election goes against any indl-
vidual or party, neither has any right TO treat
it rs a nullty only because it Is suspected that
the successful candidate or party employed
improper means Of any kind to bring about
the result. Such privilege, If fallowed, would
soon put an end 10 all elections, since It would
he useless to hold an election OF which the
result would not be binding on a minority
beyond their unlimited and irrespon-
si5e discretion. Nor is there any ex-
tremity which, in state of civil
society, would Justify the violent aud
irregular revolt Of a minority, or an apparent
minority, of voters against the decision of the
ballot-box. And yet when we hear persons
talking about having "a free election or a free
fight there is no understanding what they
mean, except on the hypothesis that they may
set any election aside which they choose to
charge as not having been free, and that they
may be the sole and final judges Of the truth
or falsehood of their allegation.
All such language is very silly, as well as
mischievous, unless those who use it intend in
advance to abide the result Of an election
provided they carry 1t, or to begin a revou-
tion if they do not. If that were their pur-
pose, then they would be altogether unworthy
of the right of suffrage, which they would
enjoy themselves, while ready to deny its
practical and legitimate results to others.

CONSISTENT.

That truthful, loyal, meek, and consistent
sheet, the Philadelphia Age, publishes the
three following editorial paragraphs this
morning. An intelligent citizen may think
there is some slight incongruity in them.
"Thc Abolidonists have virtually given mp
Pennsylvania. They know that they have
gone up in the Old Keystone"
This j. TO insure confidence.
Democrats and Conservatives II any one
90 Is sick, take him TO the polls in a carriage. Ii
" any one should De wayering, cheer and Instruct
" him With your counsel and example. Poll
every YOlc.'
This is TO excite enterprise.
The election in PennsyNania may be close
A." One vote may decide &C."
And this is to mingle in the cup OF Joy
salutary precaution.
So that their sinking cause can be aided,
what cares the Age for truth or consistencyp

HOw gCLELLAN WELL SECURE
PEACE.

The Chicago-Belmont Democrats claim that
MCCLELLAN win restore peace to the coun-
try but thoy cannot tell the people how they
will give as peace. HENRY S. FoorE, who
advocates MCCLELLAN in the South, lets the
cat out of the bag by announcing that If
MCCLELLAN j. elected, plan for peace viii
be proposed by two conventions, composed
separately ofNorthern and Southern delegates.
The Southern delegation win decide, SAYS
Mr.. FoOTE, that "reeoRstyUctioR under the
Federal Constitution Is allte iaetpedieat
both for the North and the South"
There is the Democratic plan for peace-a
division Of the countryside establishment of
a Southern Coniederaey. FooTE is frank, but
his ffanlmess is inopportune. Honest men
win understand aOw what they are TO expect
from MoCLELLAN's election. win they con-
tinue to urge his claims 10 the Presidency
with the inevitable conclusion staring them in
the face that, If elected, to concliate the South
he stands ready TO acknowledge its Inde-
pendenee?

MI government In this country il founded
oD the consent of the governed That consent
is expressed both IN the making Of the laws
by popular representatives, and in the choosing
OF the officers who are charged with the exc
cution of the laws. The people effect these
ends by suffrage, and the win Of the majority
prevails.
To ascertain what that viii is, the elections
must be free, and conducted according to
law. This is duly provided for by State and
national legislation. When the election Is
held, and the result regularly announced, it is
the duty Of the minority TO submit. Other
wise the process Of taking the sense Of the
people would be worse than an idle ceremony.
It may happen that some iniormality, or
even fraud, is alleged in taking the popular
vote. In such case the law supplies a remedy.
The question Of factmust properly be referred
for trial 70 some tribunal having Jurisdiction
In the particular instance. TIA seat in Con-
gress is contested by rival candidates, that

In his plan for producing peace, HENRY S.
FooTE insists that the North shall consent,
after two Republics are formed, to enter into
treaty with the South, and an ertradition
clause must be embodied therein, prouiding
for the restoration Of JitgittceS from serDice.
What are Northern freemen to think of such
an insolent and degrading proposition? Shall
we consent again to have these Southern
shareholders driving over our free land in pur-
suit Of the poor hunted-down fugitive seeking
the breath of libertyP If we wish 10 witness
such humiliating scenes, why, vote for
MCCLELLAN and PENDLEToN. But if we
would have all men breathe the air of freedom
ii we would keep the slavedrivers' feet from
our soil, vote for ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

TO UNION MEN.

The history Of all past political contests
declares the fact that the cause of party's
defeat Is generally PREMATURE CONFIDENCE
OF SUCCESS.
Let not the battle which is to be fought on the
morrow add another such example to the long
roll fpolltical failures. We have sure con-
Viction that the righteousness of our cause
and the integrity Of our candidates will give
US victory. The Democrats are working let
US not be idle. They will spare no cxertons
to gain success. Every vote within their reach
will be poled, every fraud which is possible
be perpetrated, and every falsehood which
ingenuity can invent be publicly circulated.
Let not the glorious victory almost within our
grasp be lost by the supineness of the sup
pOrters Of the cause of Union and Liberty.
Let every loyal man not only poll his own
vote, but take with him friends who will serve
the double purpose of swearing to his right Of
suffrage, and of exercising themselves the
dearest privilege secured to freemen.
Byan you hold most sacred, we call upon
you not TO faiI to do your duty to your coun-
try In this hour of her need. Fathers, while
your sons are battling for the Union against
traitors at the South, will you not fight and
conquer their aiders and abettors at the
NorthP They will win glory with the bayo-
net; do your duty, and you viii win as great
fame with the ballot.
Mothers, wives, do not let your sons and
husbands who are left to protect and sup
port you at home, desert your sons and
brothers who are living in the tented field. Do
not let them falter for an instant in the path
dictated by duty as well as honor.
Let us bring out the whole strength Of the
Union party. The Keystone State is not GER
tain for the cause of freedom. We believe that
she will keep her escutcheon unsullied, but
the future is shrOuded in impenetrable night.
Suppose that by sir majority the State is lost
10 US, and by a few digits she be compelled to
D@0s hOA bNSubg-slA oAcClOId NOCSS lOT
MCCLELLAN and PENDLEToN. Would your
conscience ever again give you peace, when
you thought that such disgrace might have
been prevented by little exertiOn on your
parts Every man has an influence; and when
you neglect to vote, you may prevent a dozen
friends from doing their duty. Example is
contagious, and let your example aid the
cause of liberty and law.
Again we call upon you, by all you hold
most dear, to do your part in the coming
conflict.
"Now by your children's cradles, nov BY your
fathers graves,
BE men to day, o Northmen! or be for ever
slaves"
Yes, slaves condemned to the worst OF
bondage - that caused by loss Of national
honor.
Do your duty, and all win be well; Gail, and
the rising sun of Wednesday shall shine upon
8 nation OF freemen grovelllng in the dust
before the naughty autocrats of the SOUTH
Let us then he up and doing,
With a ear fnr any nto;
Sill achieving, sill pursuinr,
Learn 20 labor, and 10 wdil."

SALT NEEDED BY SHEEP.

An English writer. DR.. Phipson, in a
prize essay on common salt; relates that
not many years ago, a German agricultu-
rist, made the following experiment to
determine the influence Of salt upon his
sheep, which we're kept on low, damp,
pssture land. Ten animals were selected
and sheir usual allowance Of salt with
held. In the first year, five out Of this
number died OF rot and worms, while
among the remainder of the flock, num-
bering over four hundred, only four
sheep were lost. The second pear, new
lot of ten sheep deprived of salt, lost sew
On, and short time after the close OF the
year, the other three of the unsalted num-
Der died; the re emainder OF the flock lost
only FIVE. The third year was very rainy;
sixteen sheep were deprived of salt, and
tho whole Of them died with rot and YER
nioular pneumonia,
