On Saturday morning last, between four ani five w'clock, fire was discovered issuing from the exten- Rive cooperage establishment of Messrs.

When the firemen arrived on Rhe ground the flames had ma ch headway Bhat all efforts to save the duildings were of no avai ud their exertions were confined to keeping the flames from spreading to the adjoining store. fhouses and buildings. The wind was blowing quite freshly at the time, and it was feared that Bhe flames would spread to the adjoining buildiogs. © wing to the inflammable nature of the materials the fire was a very large one, illuminating the heavens and making the city aslightas day. The buildings, with theit contents, were entirely destroyed. The entire loss on buildings, machinery, tools, stock, de., is variously estimated at from 610,000 to 912,000. There was but a partial insurance apon the property. In the buildings were fifty chests of Lools belonging to the workmen. These were en- tirely destroyed, many of which were worth $100 each.

The argument is exhausted. The case is closed on all sides. The time for deliberation has passed. On'y this, the last day of the campaign, remaive—tbis one day for action-— ne day, from the rising to the setting sun, the verdict of the American people upon be momentous iesues before them; and this one day the conservatives of New York, city and State, of all parties, creeda and classes, are called upon to devote to the rescue of the Urion and the constitution. Upon the State of New York, but chiefly upon the city of New York, the cause of the Union and the constitution depends. But this is not the first time in which the issue of the battle bas been thrown upon this metropolis In 1844 the majority for Mr. Polk io this city was the plurality by which he was elected. It was the vote of t'is city in that election which gave us Tetas, New Mexico, Utab and Califor- nia, and those golden harvests of Qalifornia ch, in ten years, have changed the face of this island from that of a etruggling provincial town of shabby brick houses to an imperial ity of brown stone and marble palaces, the wonder and admiration of the world. Mr. Clay was a statesman, and as a statesman be stood in 1844 as the Presidential candidate opposed to the annexation of Texas, not be- cause the institution of slavery existed in Texas, but because, in the projected annexation, he apprehended a disastrous war. The leaders and the bulk of the whig party of the Nortb, however, supported Mr. Clay because of their hostility to the annexation of Texas asa slave State. But the annexation issue, in the face of a war and in spite of the general anti-slavery movement against it, prevailed, and the State and city of New York, and the whole country, have been most richly rewarded in the golden resulta. On a grander scale, and in a more critical ebape, the conservative people of New York have the same issue before them today. The policy decreed with Lincoln's election will be— “No more slave States, no more slave Territo- and the reconstruction of every depart- ment of the federal government into an engine for the suffocation of slavery in the slave States.”” This is the pacific view of Lincoln’s election; but there is a darker side to the picture. Against thie terribly deepotic programme, so éefiantly proclaimed by the republican party, from Maine to California, we have abundant warnings that at least a portion of the South will make astern and revolutionary resistance — that. with the fact of Lincoln’s election ascer- tained, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, Fio- rida, Mississipp!, Arkansas and Texas will prac- tically begin the work of a Southern revolution and a Southern confederacy. And for what reason? For the simple reason that in the South, where law, and order and the peace and rafety of soc'ety, life and property, are ol! Cependent upon the institution of slave- ry, there can be neither law, nor order, nor peace, nor safety, with an administration at Washing- ton co-operating or sympathizing with the abo- lition Browns ard Helpers, and Sumners and Lovejoys of the North. That answer will suf- fice to the intelligent reader who comprehends the crisis and the iseue. The crisis is Union or disunion -the iesue is the defeat or the election of Lincoln. In New York, Douglas, Breckin- ridge and Bell are all absorbed in the Union cause and Union ticket opposed to Lincoln. With the cordial union to-day in New York, city and State, of all men with whom the Union is the vital question, Lincoln will be defeated. The reaction for this Union ticket has been working finely. With another month, or evea another week for canvassing, a Union victory would be made manifest before the election. But still, with only this one short November day remaining for action, the city may redeem the State, and the State may save the Union. Fellow citizens, to your duty! Vote early. Cail upon your neighbor to vote early; but, at all hazards, let every friend of the Union as it is, and of the constitution as it is, who is enti- tled to vote, make sure work of it for himself, and vote early. Joven Ressey ano THe Porrraytcat, anv Biackiee Onoay.—The Puritan and black- leg organ of this city, which has just been parading a cut of a press, and publishing in its colomns as news what every newsboy has had at bis tongue’s end for years, had in ite iseue yesterday one ofits labored editorials, with the straight coat arguments of all the blacklegs of the city ogainst Judge Russel. These gentle men, failing to meet with success in Philadel- phia, bave come and squatted down in this city, and, witbout being ableto go back in our bietory but two or three months, have made a bitter attack upon one of the most fearless judges of the city. Were the editors of this Poritan blackleg organ able to look back tbrovgh the last four or five years they would see that Abraham 1D. Ruseel had done more to establish order in our city than all the Puri- tan preachers and Puritan blackleg organs combined. It is not to be wondered at, how- ever, that thie Puritan blackleg organ has come out in defence of the roughs of this city. Having raised the little sum of a hundred thou- sand dollars, and finding no other way to spend it, they bave gone to publishing a Puritanical blackleg organ. Their last attempt will only strengthen Mr. Russel; for since the organ of the blacklegs bas spoken every honest citizen knows the desire of that class, and will walk *) deaths in this city during the past week | wp.tothe polls today and vote for Abraham ‘y 1 Rossel for Recorder, as the only jndge that will prevent the city from ben J overrua by iy: ng \ue corresponding week last year, Tho re- | thieves and biacklegs, Vote ear NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1860, — Tux Last Desratcags Rom THE Srmr Wortv.—Very much to the dissatisfaction of hundreds of distinguished shades who desired to be heard upon the momentous question that the country is to pase upon today, we are obliged, on account of the exceeding great prereure on our columns, to eelect only a few of the more important communications which have been received through our special trance mediums, We have heard from Rufus Choate, who again appeals to his fellow countrymen to keep step and march to the music of the Union. A most eloquent outburst of the Massachusetts orator was cut short by the appearance of Joho Brown, who came, the medium aaid, in a heavy black cloud, with here and there flashes of chain lightning, and impermeated the atmosphere with a strong smell of brimstone. Brown was accompanied by several other inaurrectionista, white and black. They all hoped that the Union would be dis solved, and declared that, if Lincoln should be elected, they had not suffered in vain. Brown said that he hoped to hear of several insurrec: tions in the cotton States between this time and the Let of January. Patrick Henry was quite certain that New York would do her whole duty, as in the old revolutionary times, He said that the present crisis was a8 imminent aa that in which the colo- nies were placed when he made his favorite speech in the Virginia House of Burgesses. Henry hoped that all the Union men would vote early. A party of French Jacobios, head- ed by Danton, next appeared, shoutiog hur- rab for the guillotine! Down with the govern- ment! Property is theft! Elect Lincola! Dis- solve the Union! Smash everythiag generally! Oréer, peace, liberty and law are antique and respectable delusions, with much more to the same purpoee. Napoleon said the only thing left for us wasa military despotism, and suggested that his nephew should “protect” us with a little grapeehot and cannister. Lafayette said he bad not been so much excited since the day when he commanded the National Guard and induced Louis XVI to moum the tricolored cockade, while the Queen held up the Dauphin to the view of the sans culottes He hoped and believed that the people of the United States would be true to the principles to maintain which their Revolutionary forefa- thers fought aud bled. His friends, Generals Gates, Knox, Lee, Lincoln and a great number of colonels ia the Army of Independence joined in this wish; Hancock, Adans, Oxis, Elbridge Gerry and other patriots of the Boston tea party epoch sent messages similar to the above. After this there was a moment or two of breathless silence. The medium ssid that some great epirit was approaching, and she was im- pressed with a feeling of the most profound ve- peration. The communication was from our firet President, the immortal Washington, through Chief Justice Marshall, who administer- ed to the Father of his Country the oath of fidelity to the constitution and the laws. The Chief Justice said that were Washington now alive he would take his position where he stood seventy one years ago, in the City Hall of New York, and would call on those who truly loved their country to put down sectionalism and to crnsh out fanaticism by an earnest and united effort at the polls. He hoped that if he had ren- dered any service to his country that the coua- try would prove its gratitude by preserving the Union intact. It is not irreverent to say that the epirit of him who was first in war, first in peace, and first in hearts of his country. men, will animate the friends of the Union in the great etruggle of today. So, forward, Union men, forward to the polls. Vote early: Hort. Krerenrs.—-If the relations between the North and South are disturbed, as they will be by Lincoln's election, your houses will be half deserted, for the interchange of people be- tween the different sections of the country for the purposes of commerce and amusement will be interrupted. Your interests hang upon a friendly relation between all sections of the country. Destroy the motives and necessities for travel, and our princely hotels will be un- needed. Remember this morning that such will be the effect of the success of the sectional party, and vote for the Union. Take every voter in your employment to the polls with you, and induce every one of them to vote against Lincoln. There will be time enough to do this before breakfas', if\necessary. Go to the polls, and go early, A Worn to Tum Wink Awakes.—The black republican Wide Awake organization have given us a premonition of the war spirit which they wish to rouse through the land, by their attacks on the Southern boarders at the New York Hotel; on the Unign men at the Bell and Everett headquarters; on conservative citizens driven into the Everett House; on New York firemen attacked in their engine house, and on numerous other occasions. We are told that they are to-day going to challenge systematical- ly every freeman at the polls, in order to pre- vent New York city from casting the great vote she is entitled to as the commercial metropclis of the Union. Let them beware how they rouse the indignation of a patient people. Minute Men of New York, see that you do your duty, Vote early, and protect your neighbor, that he may vote early also; but be rure that you vote early yourselves. To Artistes or THR Turatre, Orena Hovse axp Concent Hatts.—The election today is a matter of the first importance to you. Should black republicanism triumph, the estab- lishments to which you are attached will be ruined. Gentlemen who are not legal voters may influence a friend in favor of the Union ticket. Actresses and singers may for once use their sweet voices in the good cause, and see that their husbands or brothers give this one day to the Union. Get up at sunrise. See that glorious orb, if the weather permits; but vote early. Tur Oxe Horse Doror.The opponents of Jobn Cochrane, in the Sixth Congressional dis- trict, it seems, have been driven to a desperate plight, and have posted up 4 placard of a horse in the district, and are trying to connect Mr. Cochrane with the public store contract labor, as if to fasten upon him an attempt to injure the laborer. This only shows their weakness and the desperate etraits that they are put to. Vote early Tue Reorsree—All manner of tricks will be reeorted to to prevent the election of an honest and upright Register. Let every person re- member that M.T. Brennan is the person that is beat qualified for that office. Vote for Bren- nan, and vote early. Tue Vore on Negro Svrrrace To Day.— To-day the citizens of the State of New York will be called on to determine at the ballot box, in pursuance of resolutions of our black republican Legislature, whether negroes will be permitted to vote or not atour elections in future, without a property qualifitation as a guarantee of their character, their intelligence and good conduct. As the law now stafids,a negro must own real estate to the value of $250 before he can vote. By the proposed law all the black thieves and paupers, rogues and rascals of the Five Pointe, Church street, West Broadway, and the alleys throughout the city where crime and the most degrading vice and igno- rance prevail among the colored population, would have the same right to vote as the best white republican in the community, tor Massa Seward, Maesa Greeley or any other Massa. “Liberty, fraternity, equality,” is their motto, and they calculate that African amalgamation with the fair daughters of the Anglo Saxon, Celtic and Teutonic races will soon be their portion under the millenium of republican rule which will be inaugurated by the election of Lincoln. Like the Mahomedan, who looks forward to his houris in Paradise, 80 do the ne- groes of the Five Points long for the day when they will be privileged to take to their arms the pale faced beauties of the Caucasian race in the city of New York. Already the waiters and whitewashers and bootblacks have grewn impudent in anticipation of the bright pros- pect before them. The republican leaders have been for years courting the negro vote by holding out the pro- mise of giving the franchise to all the colored bredren of every hue, from whitey brown to ebony. But, on the other band, they feared the loss of white voters who do not like the prac- tice of amalgamation, and abhor the idea of baving the blood of their offspring tainted and corrupted by mixture with that of the African, after the manner of the miserable Central Ame- rican and South American republics. Accord- ingly the republican leaders concealed the reso- lutions to put the negro suffrage qaestion to the vote of the people till it was too late for the Sceretary of State to give the proper notice. The resolutions were found where they ought not to be, in the Executive mansion; and now they are brought forward afresh, when the lead- ers think that they have manufactured sufficient fanaticism to make the question go down with the more conservative men of their party in the enthusiasm of the Presidential election. The design is to gain some nin2 thousand votes, in order te turn the balance of power and make the State permanently black republican. That ‘the republicans bave greater antipathy to the black race than have the Southern people is evident from the fact that in the Western anti slavery States where they have majorities with- out the negroes, and don’t need them, they either prohibit their voting or expel them from the country. The Western republicans, in jus- tification of their action, say that negroes are not fit to be entrusted with the ballot, as they are not equal to the white man, and the reason why they oppose negro slavery is not on ac- count of its being an injury to the black, but to their own race. What an element for bribery and corruption will be introduced into our elections in future if the black population are allowed to vote in- discriminately in this State. Their votes will be sold to the highest bidder by some darkey dodger or white nigger who may acquire influ- ence over them. But the question is, will any decent white man to-day vote himself down to the level of the negro race? Vote against Lincoln and negro suffrage. Vote early, and call your neighbor to vote early also; but be sure you vote early yourself. Canpipates ror Recister.—We have care fully scrutinized the character of the three can didates in the field for this office to be voted for to-day, and have come to the conclusion that Matthew T. Brennan is the only person in nomination worthy of the support of the democracy of this city. The antecedents of these candidates are such as to render no other choice possible. It appears that James Lynch’s career as one of the Alms- house Governors was one of an excepticnable cbaracter. The recent developement of the order to mutilate the dead bodies is certainly revolting to any person of sense, to say the least, and is only one of many facts that are telling against him. Brennan, although nomi nated by the wreck of Tammany, is one of the evidences that good may sometimes come out of evil, and we trust that every person who de- sires to have an honest and efficient officer in the office of Register will to-day cast his vote for Matthew T. Brennan. It is really a wonder how a person of Bren- nan’s stamp could receive the nomination from the old Coal Hole, and it is certainly an excep- tion to the general rule that guides the mana- gers of that rotten concern. It appears, however, that the Tammanyites, conscious of the feeling against them in this city, have not dared to hold a ratification meeting in the Old Wigwam, but have gone off to some other portion of the city to endorse their candidates. But other issues besides Tammany and Mozart enter into this contest; the question of competency is para mount to the claims of any party or faction, Let, therefore, every person who wishes a man qualified to discharge the duties of that office elected vote for Brennan, and vote early. Etout Conoressionat District.—The repub- licans in this district are boasting of inroads upon Isaac C. Delaplaine’s vote by virtue of bargains that are being made on the county ticket. They are willing to trade off any of their local candidates if they can only get a dyed-in the-wool Weed republican like Wake man elected to Congress. Let no anti repud- lican voter contribute his mite to carry out any euch unholy bargain. Vote for Delaplaine, and vote early. Oxe Worp to tae Lanms —The splendid weather of yesterday brought out all the ladies, and made Broadway a magnificent panorama of youth, beauty and fashion. What if all this yety should be suddenly eclipsed by the triumph of the black republicans! What if the child is now born who willsee the grass growing in Broadway! Think of these things, matrons and maidens of New York. See that your male relatives vote for the Union and the constitution. Your influence is great—look that you use it well. Vote early. As Gors New Yous Crry So Gors tae Strate; As Gors te Evrme State So Goss tar Uston.—Vote early, then, and call your neigh bor to vote early too; but be sure, that you vote early yourself, Memicrra, Revoucrion.—While revolution is going on at the Nerth and at the South, and threatens to lay the Union in ashes, there is another revolution going on in the city of New York, by which Tammary Hall, that mother of barlots and sink of abominations, will be over- thrown, and the democracy of the city wil! be emancipated from her filthy embrace and ber corrupt control. She will be overthrown by the Union democracy, and a new organization established upon her ruins. Her free eoil heresies, her ‘venality and rowdy black" guardiem have made ber odious and detestable in the sight of all good and honest men. She bas become a nuisance, offensive to public mo- rality, and ought to be abated. By organized bands of shoulder-hitters she has practically deprived the democracy of the treedom of elec- tion, and compels them to vote at her dictation cr not atall. This petty despotism must be put down before the democracy is placed on a right basis. As Peter the Great massacred his Strelitz guard, Sultan Mahmoud bis Janissa- ries, and Mebemet Ali the Mamelukes, when they attempted to control the action of these sovereigns, 0 let the soverajgn people at one bold stroke crush at the ballot box the usurpers and dictators of Tammany Hall. Vote to-day the Union ticket against Lincoln, and vote with the Union democracy against Tammany Hall. Vote early; call your neighbor to vote early also; but be sure you vote early yourself. Necro SurrraGe AND THE EEction or Lrn- coux.—An incident occurred on the Fourth Avenue Railroad during the prevalence of the storm of Saturday last, so appropriate to the present crisis, and so illustrative of the truths we have endeavored to impress upon the pub- lic mind, in regard to the inevitable tendency of black republican doctrines, that it deserves all the prominence it can receive. During the heaviest of the rain a “poor oppressed son of Ham” stepped upon one of the cars, and, as is the custom, took his place on the front platform. So far as shelter was con- cerned, however, he might as well have been in the open air, and the conductor, seeing his lamentable plight, humanely told him that, though it was contrary to the rules, he might ride inside, The darkey took advantage of the kind offer, and, ensconcing himself in the cosiest corner of the car, commenced a feast ef chestnuts, of which he bad a liberal supply, scattering the shells around him on the floor. The conductor, observing this dieplay of in- dependent nastiness, remonstrated, when ebony boldly told bim that he had as much right there as anybody else, and didn’t want any of his im- pudence. The conductor, having no power under the circumetances to put his obnoxious cus- tomer out ef the car, contented himself with a little wholesome eloquence until the negro left, which he did with the remark that “after the 6th of November they'd show white folks how to treat colored people.’ There is not the slightest doubt of it; and if the black re- publicans only keep on they will have no diffi. culty in establishing the long mooted question that a white man is really as good as a nigger. Vote early, and take your neighbor along with you. Sure Carrenters!—Don’t forget that if Lin- coln is not defeated at the polls to-day your trade is gone to the dogs. The South will be alienated from the North, and no more ships for the Southern trade will be built here. Lines of steamers and vessels running to Southern ports will be ruined. The ship building business de- pends wholly upon the prosperity of the carry- ing trade, and that depends upon the general commerce of the country. Lincoln’s election will most certainly break up every commercial interest by which we have been growing pros- perous and rich; our dockyards will be con- verted into deserts and your occupations will be gone. Stalworth ship carpenters, go to the polls this morning before you take an adze in hand, and vote against Lincoln and the ruin of your trade. Vote early, and get every one you know'to vote early; but above all things vote early yourselves. How Brack Rercericaytsm Worxs.—Ia one town in Connecticut eleven hundred workmen were discharged last Saturday, because the manufactories have no orders from the South. If Lincoln is elected today, we shall have nothing but political agitation and abolitioniem rampant. One hundred thousand workmen and workwomen will be thrown out of employment, and have-to starve or live through a long, cold winter on public charity. Workmen of New York, you can prevent this. The vote of this State depends on the vote of this city, and the defeat of black republicanism depends on the vote of the Empire State. But you must vote early, and call on your neighbor to vote early, too; be sure, by all means, that you vote early yourself. Freqcenters or Warertna Praces!—The glory of your summer resorts will have de- parted if the friendly relations between the North and South are disturbed, as they cer- tainly will be in the event of Lincoln's elec- tion. No more Southern gold will pour into the coffers of the landlords. No more rich prizes in the sbape of young men from the plantations, or belles with the dark eyes and raven hair of the sunny South, will make New- port and Saratoga resplendent and attractive, and we at the North will become so straighten- ed by the disruption of trede and commerce that we will not be able to d to go toa watering place at all. Seriously, this interest as well as every other will enffer by the sue cees of Lincola and the abolitionists, Remem- ber this, and vote against him today. Do not hesitate about it, but vote early. Cuaxter Gorse to Wirapaaw—The oppo: nents to the republicans in every Congressional district In this city, excepting the Sixth, have now united upon one candidate, thereby in suring an anti-repubdlican delegation. Mr J. W. Chanler, the Tammany nominee, is yet in the field, with an apparent attempt to throw the district into the hands of the republicans; but as it is apparent that be canrot poll but a small vote, be will no doubt act the part of a patriot,as Mr. Mather hae done, and with draw from the field. The voters may look for his withdrawal by noon today. One o: Mr. Conkling’s managers asserted yesterday tha: the only person that he feared was Joba (Cob rane.*Let every anti-republican remember this, and govern bimself accordingly. Vote for Cochrane, and vote early. A Crean Freup any No Favon—It ix to be hoped that the supporters of the Union tic! will use all possible meane to get in all thety votes, Let us have a clean flela and no favor Vote early. | | | | | Rh LY Tur Scrreme Covrr’s Fura Waxet.—A doubt bas been started as to the propriety of electing 8 Supreme Court Judge at this time. The ques tion deserves attention, and ita solution may be found somewhat difficult. In arrangiog for an elective judiciary, it was necessary that the umber of districts, the number of judges, the Jndicial term and the judicial election’ day should harmonize. Accordingly the Committee on the Judiciary in the Convention of 1846 re- ported a system consisting of thirty-two judges, to hold for eight years each, and to be elected in eight separate districts, each district electing four. The four judges of each district were to be so classed that after the first election ona should go out of office every second year. Thus a “general election of judges,” occurring every alternate year, became necessary in contradis- tinction to the general election which occurs every year, and it was provided that vacancies should be filled by appointment until supplied “at the next general election of judges.” After this plan had been accepted by the Convention, it was suggested that the rapidly increasing population of this district would soon entitle it to more than four judges; and an amend- ment was adopted, providing that in this district there should be as many more than four judges se might from time to time be authorized by law, but not to exceed in the whole such num- ber, in proportion to its population, “as shall be in conformity with the number of such judges in the residue of the State in proportion to its population.” In the original plan the numbers—two for the times of election, four for the number of judges in each district, eight for the terms, eight for the districts and thirty-two for the whole number of judges—admitted of being indefi- nitely combined in a regular series of muta- tions, and whenever the Legislature thought at to supply New York with an additional judge, the first and all successive elections of such judges ehould have been held at a general eleo- tion of judges with a term of eight years, to commence on the Ist of January following: This would have made every such eccentric combine with the system into which it was pro- jected, and caused it at all times to harmonize therewith perfectly. The fifth judge was added by the act of 1852—Lawe of that year, page 591, section 8. The first election under that act was held in November, 1852, when there was no regular judicial election. The new judge's term com- menced on the Ist of January, 1853. No other regular judicial term commenced at that time. Hence all the difficulty. The case of Judge Davies against Judge Cowles did not necessarily draw attention to this point. Neither of the parties was inter ested im presenting it. Whether it oc to them or to their counsel is unknown. The courts did not notice it. (3 Kernan, 350.) The statute of 1852 conflicts so utterly with the judicial echeme laid down in the constitu- tion that its validity may well be doubted. The judges who have held under it are judges de facto, and their acts are all valid. But it is probable the Court of Appeals would not sus- tain the act, and undoubtedly our next Legia- lature ought to amend it so as to make the time of electing this fifth judge and his term of office correspond with the rest of our judicial »~stem. Vote early, and take your neighbor along to vote early also. Way tae Brack Rervsiicass Wist To Apouish THe Army AND Navy.—Seward as- erted in his speech at Lansing, on the 6th of September last, that the black republicans wish to abolish the army and navy, because they are kept only “that slaves may not escape from the elave States into the free, and that emancipated negroes in the free States may not enter and introduce civil war into the slave States.” Freemen of New York, do you wish that the army and navy ehall be abolished for these nefarious objects of black republican- ism? Then you must defeat Lincoln; and to do eo you must vote early, and call your neigh- bor te vote early, too; but be sure that you vote early yourself. Noruine Mave tw tae Sovra.—Seward told the people of New York a few days since that he could not find a single article of raiment, nor anything else, made at the South. He thought he had found a place in New Orleans where they made horee carts and such things, but on close examination he found they were made at New Haven, and only sold at New Orleans. Yet he and bis black republican fol- lowers want to destroy twelve millions of consumers of Nerthern productions, and replace them with twelve millions of com- petitors with our Northern manufacturers and laborers. This is the policy of suicide for Northern industry. You must help to stop it by voting against Lincoln. See, then, that you vote early, and call on your neighbor to vote early too; but be sure that you vote early yourself. Berpers!—In no city in the world has the trade you follow been more flourishing than in New York. Countless millions have been ex- pended among you for the last ten years in the erection of costly mansions and magnificent stores. Why? Because the city and the nation were rich and prosperous through their com- merce. If Lincoln is elected, and the Uaion di- vided into sections aud torn with hostile interests, the tide of commerce will be stopped. Finan- cial disaster will shat np stores, make mer- chants bankrupt, depreciate property, and re- duce millionaires to poverty. What then be- comes of your trade? Remember this, and when you read these lines hasten to the polls and vote against Lincoln. Take the Ucion ticket you will find in another column slong with you, and put itin the ballot box. Make all your neighbore do the same, and, above all hinge, vote early.
