But it demands fidel- i to that solemn compact which admitted Missouri, pledged freedom to Kansas, and poace to a distracted country.

It declares that those who destroyed it, shall derive no advantage Irom i own wrongful act, and this is a principle daily administered in every court of throughout ihe civilized world. It promulgates no political doctrines of recent origin, but founds itself upon those embraced nnd maintained by Washington, Jefferson, a i and other Fathers of the Republic. The Electoral licket nominated by the action of the Slate Committee, represents faTrljr the principles for which we contend. Every vote cast for thkit which contains the nameof John C. Fremont is a vote for those principles, and the aggregate will exhibit their strength i i the peopfe of Pennsylvania.

In proportion to ihe number of voles casl lor that ticker, in the event of the election of the twenty-six electois, the vote of Pennsylvania will be cast in the Electoral College. And so, in proportion lo the number of voles given for MiHard Fillmore and the sarrie twenty-six electors, i be the number of voles which he will re- ceivp in the Electoral College. Mr. Fremorrt and Mr. Fillmore are therefore rival candi- daies, a the contest for popular supremacy may be conducted by their respective friends with all the earnestness in their power, each contending for their principles without compromise or concealment, mid asking no favors of Ihe other.

If you would check the extension of slavery, and assert ihe wonh and dignity of free you would preserve ihe Constitutional rights of every secnon of our beloved country if you would ensure domestic justice, promote the general welfare and secure ihe blessings of liberty to yourselves and vour posterity," ihe lime lo do it is For these very objects, the fives and fortunes of men, in the early history of our country, were pledged and lost.

No such sacrifices are demanded of you.

A full vole in PenusyK vania on the -1th of November will settle for-, ever the sectional controversy inlo. which 'ho country has been plunged by the scandawus of an adminislralion which Mr. Buchanan has publicly approved and is pledged to maintain.
