McClellan’s fetter, in whch he erects for bimself another aud » solid and consistent Union platform, was written after the Vermont election, and was promul- gated too late to bave any effect upon the Ma ne ciection. The October State elections, however, of Penssylvauia, Obie’ and Iudiana will be very apt to determine the Presidential Issue. Tboy will doubtless show that McClel- lau is stronger in Peumsylvania than Judge Woodward, and stronger in Obio than Vallan- digham, but whether strong enough on Little Mac’s admirable Union or war platform to bring back those States to the democratic ticket, as in 1862, or to anything like that reac- tion, remains to be seen, The obnoxious copperhead effiliations of the democrecy since Governor Seymour's election have so seriously crippled the party among the people that, under the most fortunate circum- stances that can be looked for, it will be a dif- ficult task for General McClellan to cebu ld the democratic ark in season for the November flood, inssmuch as the rains of forty days and forty nights bave already set In, In any event, the ouly way to the reerganization and suc- cess of the Northern democracy has been pointed out by General McCtel an.
