The Presidential Campaign Mapped
out top a Republican.
A Republican named Wheeler has ad
dressed a letter to the Tribune, mapping
out the territory which it is necessary to
subjugate during the next campaign, in
order to secure a Republican President.
Indeed, Mr. Wheeler has sketched several
maps, varying slightly, in the territory they
embrace. Such as they are, we reproduce
them for the benefit of all parties—as they
answer equally well lor all:
Now that the State elections for 1859
are over, I deem it high time that we were
preparing for the great contest of 1860.
As io 1854 and in 1856, the slavery ques
tion, in some form, will be the only issue,
and it must be manfully and boldly met by
a united front. I assume the following
propositions, neither of which will be denied
by an honest, patriotic, well informed, and
unbiased member of the party.
1. We shall, with determined and united
effort, carry all the States which Fremont
did, thus giving us one hundred and fourteen
Electoral Votes to start with.
2. We shall not get an Electoral Vote
south of “ Mason and Dixon’s line.”
3. We shall not carry either California or
Oregon. They must be abandoned to the
Democrats, who start with one hundred and
twenty seven Electoral Votes.
4. Kansas will not be admitted as a State
by the present Congress.
’ 5. All the chance we will have of electing
a President will be before the people. If
the election is thrown into the House of
Representatives, we cannot possibly expect
to have more than fifteen States, and seven
teen will be necessary.
The whole number of Electoral Votes
will be 303. Necessary to a choice, 152.
In 1856, we carried neither Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Indiana, Illinois, nor Minne
sota. With New Jersey (7), Pennsylvania
(27), and Minnesota (4), we shall have the
required number, and not one to spare. If
we carry New Jersey (7), Indiana (13),
Illinois (II), and Minnesota (4), they will
give us 149 only, and we lose the election
by three votes. It Kansas is admitted,
then the whole number will be 306 ; neces
sary to a choice, 144 ; and (without Penn
sylvauia) we lose the election by two votes.
It is quite evident, therefore, that the great
battle ground will be New Jersey, Pennsyl
vania, Minnesota, and the Southern parts of
Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Into those
sections of our country, I think, we should
at once send a number of capable, honest,
and intelligent men, to enlighten the people,
distribute documents, and assist our friends
there in organizing every town, ward, vil
lage, school, and election district, aud make
a complete registry of the voters. Organi
zation, union, and harmony should be the
watchwords henceforth. If we leave all
this work until after the nominations are
made, then there will not be time enough to
do it, and the excuse will be that the mes
sengers which should be sent will have
enough to do in their respective States, and
we will lose the Hou-e of Representatives
again, and perhaps the President also.
My object is to call public attention to
these matters, hoping that a National Vig
ilance Committee may at once be formed, to
superintend this great work. We, now,
can spare some assistance from this State,
from Michigan, lowa and Wisconsin ; also
from the Eastern States. Making long
speeches by members of Congress, will not
elect our candidate. The minds of the peo
pie should be fully prepared to support who
ever is nominated, and even then, without
united, patient and determined effort until
November, we will lose the election. Let
us, therefore, go about this work at once,
and when the time comes, elect our man ;
and, if Governor Wise attempts to put his
threats into execution, we will insist that
our man shall be inaugurated, and fight it
out. C. B. Wheeler.
New York, Dec. 15, 1859.
This is the map which Democrats as well
as others will find very convenient for refer

politiciaus preserve it.
yir. Brecltenridge and tlie President.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Times says :
Meantime, before closing this letter, it
may be mentioned that—all reports to the
contrary, notwithstanding—Vice President
Breckenridge is now almost universally re
garded in the inner circles as the designed
successor (by the administration) of our pres
ent beloved and illustrious President. Mr.
Buchanan himself is not in the strict sense
a candidate ; but there might be circum
stances of public ruin, in which his patriot
ism would come to his aid, and enable him
to bear the honor and onorous duties of
renomination. But the contingency under
which this sacrifice could legitimately be
demanded not being immediately obvious,
Mr. B. is under the conviction that the next
best thing he can do is to promote the for
tunes of his second in command—the Vice
President. It is said, and seems to strength
en this hypothesis, that the speech made by
Breckenridge at Frankfort was designed as
the first overt intimation of this grand and
really magnificent policy. People point to
the curious harmoney between that speech
and the views contained in the President’s
last message—at that time not published ;
and such triends of Ex- Secretary Guthrie as
Col. Peter G. Washington, and Charles
Earns are in a state of trepidation and ex
citement not easily to be appeased.

HOSTETTER’S STOMACH
BITTERS.
In view ot the fact that every member of the human
family is more er less subjected to some complaint, be
sides innumerable other conditions in life, which, by the
assistance of a little knowledge or exercise of common
sense, they may be able so to regulate their habits of
diet, and with the assistance of a good tonic secure per
manent health. In order to accomplish this desired ob
ject, the true course to pursue is certainly that which
will produce a natural state of things at the least hazard
of vital strength and life ; for this end Dr. Hostetter has
introduced to this country a preparation bearing his
name, which at this day is not a new medicine, but one
that has been tried for years, giving satisfaction to all
who have used it, The Bitters operate powerfully upon
the stomach, bowels and liver restoring them to a
healthy and vigorous action, and thus tty the simple pro
cess of strengthening nature, enables the system to
triumph over disease.
For the cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion. Nausea, Fla
tulency, Loss of Appetite, or any Bilious Complaints,
arising Iro-t a morbid inaction of the Stomach or Bowes,
producing Cramps, Colic, Cholera Morbus, Ac., these
Ritter.-, have no equal.
Hiarrhota, dysentery or flux, so generally contracted
by new settlers, and caused principally by the change
of water and diet, will be speedily regulated by a brief
use of this preparation. Dyspepsia, a disease proba
bly more prevalent, when taken in all its various forms
