4 ‘The Baltimore, Florida and Delaware Elections—No Chance for Buchanan's Elec- F tion by the People. ‘Till yesterday, we had conceded the 120 elesto- ral votes of the Southern States to Buchanan, but the Baltimore municipal election on Wednesday last, as we believe, throws Maryland overboard, and her eight electoral votes against Buchanan; and the returns from Florida, received last night, indicate a revolution in that extreme Southern Stateagainst the Pierce, Forney and Buchanan de- mocracy. In 1852, Mr. Pierce carried Maryland by some 4,900 majority, of which 4,500 were his ma- jority in the city of Baltimore, leaving him for al! the rest of the State a lean majority of 400. Since then, the State has gone back to’ its old opposi- tion majority of over 3,000; and the late Balti- more election, with an opposition majority of 2,000, shows that the recovered opposition majo- rity of the State is more likely to be increased than diminished in November. Maryland, there- fore, may as well be counted out in making up all further estimates for Mr. Buchanan. In 1852 Florida gave Pierce a majority of 1,443, and now two counties out of the twenty-nine in that State show a change of 261 votes. If the revo- lution runs through the peninsula at this rate that State will give two thousand majority against Buchanan on the 4th of next month. So much for the folly of the late twaddling letters of such old whig fogies as Senator Pearce in behalf of the Cincianati platform. The democracy are appropriating some crumbs of comfort from their success in Delaware the other day. They conveniently forget that the opposition forces were there divided, but that they may come together before November, as we shall presently show. But what is the moral of these Maryland and Florida elections? Simply this. The blind and reckless folly and fury, the rabid disunion crusade of the fire-eating democratic leaders of the South and North, the debauched and utterly corrupted condition of the democratic party, resulting from this weak and wicked Pierce administration, and its bad advisers, have produced a popular reaction even in the South against the democratic candidate. This Baltimore election proves it; and this Florida election proves it; for if there were any re- deeming strength in the name of Buchanan these elections would have developed it. We have no doubt that a large number of good and true men in Baltimore, whose first choice is Fremont, united with the Fillmore opposition in this elec- tion. We believe, too, that Kansas, Atchison, Jeff. Davis, Brooks, Pierce, Keitt, Toombs and the fire-eating nullification organs of the same schoo] have done much to disgust the masses of NEW YORK HERALD.

The News. News from Florida is not very flattering to Ba- @banan, even in the South, where “he is a going to earry every State.” Two counties have been heard frem with the following result, compared with the vere of 1952:— —Majrnie _. | sensible conservative Southern people, sla e- Dem.” Opps | holders and non-slaveholders, with this spurious pe 3 and traitorous democracy, whose policy is rule or ruin. On the other side, the late manly and indepen- dent speeches of John Minor Botts, in Virginia, have clearly indicated a heavy under-current in the Southern popular mind in favor of Fremont, and for the Union and the constitution, which Mr. Brooks and his democratic nullifiers would tear to pieces and trample under foot. Very likely, to make their opposition effective, the Fremont men that have been converted to his cause in the South, from this insane fury of the spoils democracy, will add their weight to the vote for Fillmore; and thus it is quite possi- ble that Fillmore may yet carry, in addition to Maryland and Florida, the States of Dela- ware and Tennessee. The only difficulty in Delaware is Mr. Cullen, the Fillmore Congress man from that State. Should the election go to the House, he will have the vote of Delaware to cast for President; and as, in the election there, each State casts only one vote, the single vote of Mr. Cullen will be equal to the vote of the whole thirty-three members of New York. We thus see the importance of the posi- tion of Mr. Cullen, and we see another thing. He has declared for Fillmore first and last; and the extraordinary democratic majorities in the late Delaware election, therefore, result from a division of the opposition forces upon this issue. The division also shows the strength of the Fremont party in Delaware. They wish to pro- vide for a contingency in the House, in which the vote of Delaware (in the hands of Mr. Cullen) may be given to Fremont, and we may expect a fusion before November upon that understanding. in which event the State of Delaware is lost to Buchanan. Had we only three months longer to run we should unquestionably have Fremont adopted as the universal opposition candidate throughout the South, and he would create the same furore against the spoils and nullification democracy as Harrison in 1840. But taking things as we ©» | them, we hold that this late Baltimore elec..04 decides the important point that there is no chance of Buchanan's election by the people. The only candidate who has a living and first rate prospect of a people's election is Fremont. If he is defeated before the people, the election will be blocked. and fall through in the House, and Breckinridge, by default, will become the Presi- dent. It is the duty, therefore, of the people to defeat the huckstering nullification politicians who are working for this result, by rallying everywhere upon Fremont, so that the sovereignty of the popular will may still be maintained. It is Fremont and the people against the huc!« er- ing disunion politicians.

The protracted struggle in the Democratic Con- vention oi the Eighth Congressional district result- ed last night in the choice of Horace F. Clark over his competitors, Alderman Herrick and Alderman Jackson. Gen. Hiram Walbridge, the ,regular democratic eandidate for Congress in the Third district of this city, bas commenced to stump his district. He spoke Jast night in the First ward, and in the course of his remarks took occasion to animadvert with great severity on the disunion sentiments of Brooks, Gar- rison & Company. If elected to Congress, he ex- pressed his readiness to support any Executive that would stand by the Union. President Pierce embarked at Portemouth, N. H. yesterday afternoon, on board the frigate Wabash, for Washington. We publish elsewhere a letter from Rev. Grorze Doffield, pastor of the Central Presbyterian cl of Philadelphia, giving the particulars of an inte view with Col. Fremont, in which the latter answered ‘the questions—* Were you baptized in the Catholic Church?” and “ Did you ever partake of the sacra- ment of that charch ?” with “No; ” and the ques- tion—“ Were you baptized, confirmed, and now an Episcopalian?” with “ Yes.” ‘The public reception of Mr. George Peabody, the London banker, by his fellow townsmen of Danvers, eame off yesterday with great eclat.

The accused was taken before Justice Osborne, at the Tombs, where an investigation was had. Huntington was held to bail in the sam of $20,000 to answer. The requisite security being forthcoming, the prisoner was liberated from custody. For a report of the transaction we would refer our readers to another column. One of the Western journals contains a letter from Wilson Shannon, Governor No. 2 of Kansas.

King Bomba will soon be brought to his senses. The British and French Ambassadors are to leave Naples in a fleet cOnsisting of four line of battle ships and a proper accompaniment of frigates and corvettes. If the King still proves obstinate, no doubt the allies will occupy his territory. It will thus be seen that the leading Powers oi Europe make no scruples to deal vigorously with troublesome nations. There is no necessity that appears for Englishmen or Frenchmen going to Naples at all; and in no way is the good govern- ment of that country of any direct moment to them. Yet, as we see, the King runs no slight risk of having his territory occupied. From this we learn how England and France would act if they were in our position, and forced to deal with New Granada in reference to the Isthmus. There can be no doubt but it would have been occupied long since. Hiawty Importaxt !—James A.

NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1856. rr Tue Mapness or THE Disumionists—Fre- MONT TO BE AssassINaTED.—We have received intimations, from respectable sources, that during the last eight or ten days @ number of letters have been received by Col. Fremont of a very abusive and threatening character, some warn- ing him that, if elected, he will be assas- sinated or poisoned; others, that he may not live to be elected, for that his enemies are determined he shall never be inaugurated. This policy of assassination or poison has been practised repeatedly in Russia with success in changing the head of the government. It has been repeatedly attempted in France, but since the expulsion of the Bourbons with no success whatever. A lunatic or two has tried a shot even at Queen Victoria; bat at length the vilest desperadoes all over Europe appear to have abandoned this policy of the assassin as too cowardly and disgraceful to be used even against the worst of despots, It must be admitted, how- ever, that lead, steel or poison is a shorter me- thod of disposing of Fremont’s election than the terrible democratic policy of disunion and civil war. A knife under the fifth rib of Fremont, a bullet in his head, or a dose of strychnine admin- istered by some prudent poisoner, would put him out of the way; but we are not so certain that the trouble would end there, and there lies his eafety. These threatening letters to Fremont must come either from fools, lunatics or desperate traitors of the most abandoned class. Such are the extremities to which the crimes, follies and imbecilities of this wretched Pierce administra- tion, and its secession managers, have driven the deluded followers of the debauched democracy. The case of Mr. Brooks, of South Carolina, other- wise a polished and amiable gentleman, affords a powerful illustration of the debasing influence of these corrupting party ascociations. The gob- lets of gold and silver, the canes, the banquets he has received, and the various honors that have been showered upon his head in approved of his brutal assault upon Sumner, have, doubtless turned the weak heads of many envious and bloodthirsty democrats, and made them de- sirous of aimilar marks of distinction for similar party services, What a lion, in this view, would the assassin or the poisoner of Fremont become with the chiefs and the chivalry of the democra- tic party! Doubtless, some poor infatuated fool, here and there, with such aspirations for gold and silver goblets, and banquets and public lion- izing, may aspire to the infamous distinction of the assassin of Fremont. With Fremont’s elec- tion, however, this sort of glory and this class of wretches will soon be silenced into repentance, submission and shame. That shocking leprosy of ruffianism, beginning in Washington and Kan- as, seems to have diffused its poison through every vein and fibre of the diseased democratic party, and the people must remove it. Nothing less will do. Beewanan on Fruiwore 1s New York—Warcu 18 TO BE ABANDONED?—It is very evident, from the singular position of parties, that it as become 4 question of some moment among the friends ot Buchanan and Fillmore in this State, which of these two candidates is to be abandoned in the Presidential contest. The financial leaders of the two factions are in a state of variance on this difficulty. The ardent friends of Buchanan insist that he is the strongest man, and that Fillmore should be abandoned, while on the other side of the fence, the devotees of Fillmore, including his tail, are equally positive that Buchanan should be left in the lurch, and Fillmore adopted as their joint candidate. Whilst the two factions are deliberating this question amongst themselves, collecting money, and making a fierce personal war on Frémont by accusing him of all the crimes in the decalogue, iucluding that of a belief in Catholic Christianity, the rank and file of both are quietly withdrawing from their organizations and are waiting for the opportunity of voting the Fremont electoral ticket. If the demoralization of the two factions goes on at this rate, this city will give a large elec- toral vote for Fremont, and the State equally so, swelling his majority and plurality to a tremen- dous pitch. On State election and municipal tickets, however, each man will vote for that candidate who suits him best. Parker for Gov- ernor and Wood for Mayor, seem to be the tickets most in favor. Symparny any Sorrow ror Poor Prerce axp His Camwet.—We understand that the Hon. Ca- leb Cushing has written to ex-Senator Westcott, of Florida, to thank him for the influence he ex- ercised in procuring the correction of a misstate- ment recently made in this paper, in which we attributed to the Attorney General the distribu- tion of German documents in favor of Buchanan. This is very well; but Mr. Cushing might, with equal propriety, have thanked us for our polite- ness in making the correction: we would have received a letter from him with the respect due to his talents, his high position and his unfortu- nate future prospects in life. We believe that Mr. Cushing and also Mr. Marcy now begin to see the handwriting on the wall, and to wish that we had succeeded in demolishing the Cabi- net of which they are the principal members, when we tried to so, now three years gone.

An immense gathering of the friends of the Union State ticket was held last night in Philadelphia. The Fillmore men met in Penn square to the number of several thou- sands, and in Independence square the Fremoaters gathered together beyond the hopes of their most san guine well-wishers. Four stands were erected, from one of which Hecker held forth to an immense crowd of Ger- mans. Nothing, it is said, was ever seen like it in Phila delphia, and some, viewing the enormous space the lan- terns and trensparencics covered, placed the numbers at thousand. The entire square seemed covered, and without fear of exaggeration we may place the figure of thoee present at from thirty to forty thousand The en thusiasm was unbounded and must make the democracy ebiver ior the result next Tuesday. Tae processions of Fremort apd Fillmore men are now filling the streets of tbe city, and the air ie filled with shouts for the Union State ticket and for their candidates. Good will prevails between the opponents of the democracy, which musi bave the best effect on the day of election, In Independence square Thomas Ridgeway was called to = and a number of Vice Presiaents were ap. pinted. P Charles Francis Adams, of Boston, was announced to the meeting and received with three cheers. He com menced by paying a tridute to the patriots of Pennsy!- vapia in the Revolution. The time has arrived, sald the speaker, when your courage will be tried in defence of those peluotples ‘established ro longago. President Pierce came into office by a vote larger than ever given since our firet President, When he delivered his inaugura! addrers he said the compromise measures had seitle! the question ofelavery, and he should not countenance apy renewalof the agitation. It was not long before tho men who had put him in office considered that though you could not revert to the subject, they could, ana therefore they brought forward the Kansas-Nebraska bill. Mr. Atchison, afraid of the influence of free Terri- tory on Missouri, persuaded Mr. Stepher A. Dougiss to introduce that measure. A quiet schoolmaster in Wor- ceater, Mass., thought free men could enter that Cerri tory as well as siavebolders, and he com- menced the eetablishment of emt-rant ald societies. Tne s er then related the story of Kansas and the doings the bogus islature, Nothing in the tyranpous law: of the Old World can compare with the oppressive cote im that Territory. Mr. Pierce, in his last message, bad a good deal to say about Kansas, but very little about those jaws. Senator Sumner showed up the horrible ch1- racter of them, and the Southern ¥, not being able to apewer bis arguments, determined to muzzle the speaker. The ical operation of put Mr. Buchanan in the Presidential chair is to effect a dissolution of the Union Mr. Buchanan is not the man for the crisis. He is under the influence of the same men tbat ground President Pierce, and Mr. Pierce bas done more to effect a diasolu tion of our Union than anybody since its formation. [Ao immense delegation here arrived from the Eighth ward. | The speaker resumed, and related an anecdote of a South Carolinian, who lately told Colonel Fremont that his State was going ovt of the Union. Colonel Fremont replied, ‘{ hope you will leave the Territory.” Such a maa is the one we require for the crisis. Jouy L.
