No Split in the Democracy.

When McClellan's letter first appeared,
the New York Neirs. the leading paper Of
the Peace faction, denounced the letter as
inconsistent with the Chicago platform,
and insisted that Gen. Mcclellan should re-
cede. or a new nomination be made. It
talked ia this way;
Is il any sweeter 10 Doe torn from home

without shrOgd or shrift az the h.dlldg OF
Gen Mcclellan. than il j. al that Of Mr..
Lincoln. L. the men who t.emble for

ukase Of Mr. Stanton recollect now that il
rests with themselves. 10 make this con-
scripti0n Tie last. by insisting that Gen.
Mcclellan adopt as his policy an immedi-
ate cessation Of hOstiAlie- and q con
vention Of the States.
A meeting Of lfty leading Peace men was
/ held and measures taken for q large meeting
the week following, as we have stated else

But on Thursday. il had received entirely
new light on the subject. doubtless in the
shape OF some valuable consideration: and
it held forth a. follows:
"SOme Of our peace friends have ex-
pressed themselves in favor Of an indie
pendent peace nomination for the Presiden-
CIV. We hope that they VIII abandon the
project Immediately. II Is too late in the
campaign for any independent ticket "a

peace party could not, within the brie
space before the eighth Of November. or
ganiZe sufficiently To exhibit their rea
strength. But the absence OF that strength
from The Mcclellan ticket would be ruin0u,
10 il, and We yet hope that Gen. Mcclellan
will vet rccede from bis antagOnIsm witt

This IS the best thing the Democracy cai

~ \ gentleman Of this city has receiv-
cd letter from his brother in Shermans ar
my. dated Carters' .lle- Ga. Sept s, from
which We take the following extract:
i have not heard "a soldier hurrah for
Mcclellan since his nominations His stock
appears to be further below par than Con-
federate stocks are. You asa if | know
of any that were Democrats when they en-
listed, that will support Lincoln this fall.
We have lots of men in our Company that
voted tor Douglas that viii support Lincoln,
and more than that, will fairly abuse a man
that viii think of supporting any other can
didate. think there is but one man in
the Company that will support Mcclellan,
and he keeps very quiet since the Conven-
ton. have not heard him say word
about il for more than a month. As 10
the soldiers vote west. I do not believe
Mcclellan will get a taste. The fail OF At

thing OF this kind will increase the MAORI

than tor bis election. he is my man" All
such things tell on the sensible part Of the

spect is so broad and distinct that no voter
need be in the slightest danger Of mistake.
II elected, Mcclellan, whatever else he
might do. would be the humble, plant.
obedient subject OF the Slave Power. His
character. antecedents, present position,
and the character of his supporters, give
ample assurance Of this. Whereas Mr..
Lincoln. however slow in his steps, IS fully
committed to the great final step Of consti-
tutional prohibition On this account he
will receive the vote Of every anti-slavery
man in the nation, excepting perhaps, a
very few ultra men who will not vote al
all
4. A large majority Of the soldiers in the
army will vote for Mr.. Lincoln. They be-
lieve he is in earnest and sincere, trying 10
do well for his country. Mcclellan may
receive a considerable vote among those
who served under him: but, in the western
armies his support will be meagre; while
those who 90 out under the present call
will vote respectively about as they would
have done at home. When the great az
gregate Of army votes comes in. il will be
found that not more than one quarter OF the
whole, at the utmost, viii have been given
for Mcclellan.
5. All the successes OF OH armies.
whether they be large or small between
this and the day Of election. viii inure 10
the support Of Mr.. Lincoln, because, they
viii strengthen the popular conviction that
the war policy he-pursues is not only right,
but will be crowned with speedy success.
/ In a military point Of view the rebels were
never so closely pressed hemmed in. and
exhausted as they are to-day; and We have
Just reason 10 expect that though some
military reverses may befall Us, the progress
of our armies, now largely augmenting
will be onward to the final victory, at pace
not only unfaltering, but constantly gain
| ing in speed and vigOr.
FROM THIS Drler summary OF the force,
brought 10 bear in this campaign, We car
see two things distinctly: first that all th'
elements Of opposition TO Mr. Lincoln
brought to bear in favor OF one man. vii
give him a large vote every where; anC
second. that this viii be more than BALANCED
by the confidence Of majority Of tine pco
pie in the President. by their religious con
victions, by their hatred Of slavery, 10y thu
loyalty OF the army, and by increasing mil
itary successes. These agencies for ou
success are widespread, strong, endurin.
and reliable: and should be sufficient TO re
move that tremulous and doubtful feelin.

crept into the minds Of many Republicans
Our enemies are strong; but the influence

~ The abolition ministers suffered
some" during Mr.. Peck's last speech in this
place. The argument Is like this: the labor
Of negro slaves makes cotton cloth cheap.
Without that labor, cotton cloth would he
as dear as linen or other fabrics. The dif-
ference then, in ordinary times, between
the cost Of linen and cotton cloth, shows
the amount Of gain which We Of the North
derive from the labor OF the slave. Now,
before the rise in prices, minister could
buy three yards Of cotton cloth for shirt
for IS cents. while a linen shirt would cost
a dollar and half, the difference OF "a dol
lar showing the amount of gain which he
derives from the labor Of the slave on every
shirt he buys And yet, with these facts
before their eyes, how often had Mr. Peck
seen abolition ministers enter the pulpit
with a cotton shirt npon their backs and
the dollar in their pockets, which they had
gained from the labor OF the slave, and
stretching ont their sanctimonious hands
towards heaven, bless God that they were
not like unto those great sinners the slave
holders Of the South, and pray the Almighty
that the horrible and damning sin of Amer
lean slavery might be blotted out Aston

WHY such ministers were not afraid that
their shirts. like the tabled one Of NessuS
would not only stick To their flesh, bH ro'a

This ar-ameni enforced by Mr.. Peck :
peculiar aud earnest gesticulatiOns. was
convincing TO the audience. They testified
their approval by applause and it was evil
dent enough to an impartial observer. that
every abolition minister vino wears a cotton
shirt, had fallen in the estimation of the
hearers, at least one hundred per cent.
