Fate ofMcClellan. If Elected.

A correspondent of the New York EDening Post
says; was at Niagara Falls this week, and talked
with many secessionists on the Can ada side among
whom were several of John Morgan men, and some
ofMosebys guerrias. They talked yfercely about
our approaching Presidential election, and eI con-
CURED in the belief that if Mcclellan is elected he

platform. eff he is not' said one land all the rest

after his inauguration and Pendleton, as Presidents
viii bring around peace which shall give us our
independence establish slavery in every State in
the Union In that event the North shall pay our
debt. and the dd Adolitionsts shall be shot il
they ever utter the reasonable doctrine of abolish
ing slavery" I asked who would kill Mcclellan?
"Three hundred thousand men would quarrel for
the privilege of doing it, only his life stood between
US and success, was the prompt reply. / believe
these menwere perfectly sincere in their declarations;
and if Mcclellan should be elected, and attempt to
put down the rebels, woalduot give tenpence for

A New Plan.

The Copperhead party no longer hoping to elect
Mcclellan in the face of the sweeping Union vcto-
ties in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, now threat
en- 10 revolutionize the North when Lincoln is re-
elected. This is just exactly what the Southern
traitors did after the last Presidential election As
soon they found that majority of the people had
chosen for President man to whom they were op-
posed, they naugurated war to overthrow the very
Government under which the election had been
held. Their Northern sympathizers now threaten
20 try the same experiment.
No honest man wants any better evidence of the
inherent disloyaly and lurking treason of party,
than to hear its members threaten to subvert by
force the Government of the majority. ANY and
every man who declares that he will not submit 10
the will of majority of the people, is traitor.
Nothing less. He is not one whit better than JEFF
Davis, and instead of living in the Northand taking
part in our elections, he should at once go to the
other side of the hne and be manly enough to fight
there, with his brother traitors We have no fears
ofthese men who thus talk, attempting to carry
their threats into execution. They place too high
value On their precious skins, to run the risk of
having them perforated. They bluster and talk
treason now, but after the election they will COO as
gently as sucking doves" Let no man be fright
ened by their vaporngs, TOR that and that only is
the object of them all.

hhen secret society of ''peaee Democrats or
ganizes itself as military body, with every mem
Der sworn to obedience when II places itself under
the supreme commandership of Mr.. Yallandigham,
when, for Indiana alone, it purchases thirty thou
sand revolvers, twenty thousand rifles, and endless
supplies of fixed ammunition, when during civil
war all this is done in secret by men who openly
threaten resistance to tine decision Of the majority
in case an election goes against them, there are
few who will hesitate to conclude that the object of
such proceedings is to throw the country into anar
chy and that the first duty of the Government is to
deprive the sonspirators of the means of mischief
There are two things connected with it which may
not unnasurally excite surprise-why the Govern

seizing the arms, and why the Chicago Convention
should have the efrontery to complain Of the seiz
