jority in this county tomorrow should MOI
be at least 500. If every man will do his
duty it may foot up easily that number
Let each one bring out that particular per-
son or persons whom he knows did not vote
last Thursday week.
We have been told in this campaign,
not once but several times, by persons who
have declared for Mcclellan, that they
cared nothing about Pendleton, that they
took no account of him and his record,
nor yet of the Chicago platform. They
simply took Mcclellan on his record and
on his letter, and because of his record
and his letter they intended to vote for
him. Such persons do not attempt to
conceal their dislike and distrust Of Pen
dIetou and of ValIandigham, who styles
Peudleton bis Gown familiar friend" and of
the Chicago peace platform. We have q
parting word to say to such PERSONS
To morrow you vote not alone for MoClel-
Ian, but for Mcclellan and Pendleton.-
You cannot seperate your votes. You
must vote for both. If Mcclellan
is made President by your vote, Pendle-
ton will be made Vice President, by the
same vote. Has it occurred to you that
Pendleton may become the President 81
Have YOU ever recalled the fact that two
Vice Presidents of the United States have
succeeded to the Presidency? 1t is we'll to
remember that such thing has happened
of chic
ton, and both of those Vice Presidents
acted as Presidents nearly four years each,
and neither one of them was specially
fitted for the place nor much thought of
by tho people IN connection with it. AS if
TO make the coincidence and the warning
still more complete and impressive, it is to
be added that both those accidental Presi-
dents were civilian appendages to military
men. Who now, in the light of history,
does not say that it was an evil day for
America when John Tyler became Vice
President under Harrison, and when Fill
more was elected along with Taylor. They
were both pro slavery set offs to the sup.
posed anti slavery leanings of their prin-
pals, and when they succeeded those prime
cipals through the accident of death, both
made departures from the line of policy en-
tered upon by their principals. They each
patronized the Southern pro slavery senti-
ment-made it the ruling element at court,
and the one brought on the war with
Moxico and the other was the father of
Mason's infamous fugative slave law
When this rebellion broke out, John Tyler,
living in Virginia, took an active part in
it, while Willard Fillmore, living in New
York, could only wish it we'll. History
will brand the cold, selfish and murderous
reticencs of Fillmore all through this great
crisis, as being perhaps more Infamous
than the active agency of John Tyler. Dc
we want any more such men to succeed &c
the Presidency? To this day it has never
been explained satisfactorily how it wal
that Genls. Harrison and Taylor, out o
perfect health, fell 80 soon sick and diet
so peculiarly, although the country begar
to suspicion better explanation than eve
before at the time of Buchanan's sickness
and the National Hotel poisoning, just be
fore the Inauguration in 1856. The mel
who have sacrificed millions of treasur
and hundreds of Thousands of lives in III
interest of slavery, and whose allies haV
recently plotted the assassination of Gov
Morton, and the burning and sacking @
towns and Cities are not going to be stop
ped by one mans life. No man, there
fore, ever had fairer prospect to becom
President, in case he first becomes Vic
President, than Geo. h. Pendleton.
The ticket is bad enough as it ia now
should it even remain as it Is 1t is
shame and danger for General claim
ing to be patriotic, and aspiring to the Chic
Magtstracy of the Nation, to be in associa
ton only with such men as Long and Val
landigbam, and Pendletou and tn
Woods. 1t is mischievous enough, W
say, for Gen. Mcclellan to be in alliauc
With the evil. But Pendleton is the ev
itself. The loyal people will look shArpl
that they get no man for President VIII
has such partner. But more than thil
they will take good care that they neVe
get the partner himself
