Michigan perfectly safe.
To the Editor of the Un,ons

SIR Among the various misrepresentation and false
hoods put forth by the Taylor and Van Buren, organs, for
the purpose of bosterng sinking cause, to
be unscrupuously persisted in, beyond the limits of
this State, the assertion that the democracy of Mch
gan is disuned and that General Cass will have great
difficulty in carrying his State. With such
sertiOn is regarded too absurd to merit remark and,
indeed, man who has reputation to lose, would
ture to make it. We find, however in other States that
such SANDER has been caught up and circulated by OPP
position papers, who in their eagerness have moi stopped
to ascertain the utter worthlessness and menacy of its
authors For the purpose, then, of vndcang the dem
ocatc fidelity of our young State thus fouy sandered,
and guarding democratic brethren abroad against
gross IMPOSITION after thorough canvass OF every
y in the State, deliberately and without hesitation,
declare that MICHIGAN will, in November next give
majority for Cass and Butler of at least 5O0O that every
attempt to withdraw democrats from the support of the
regular nominees of the party has signaly failed that,
whatever strength the Van Buren, and Adams ticket may
have in this State is almost wholly derived from the
ranks of the old wing and abolition parties that the pro-
essed supporters of Gen Taylor are cold and aPathec-
uniform and ardent wings still utterly refusing to give in
their adhesion to the Philadelphia nominations, while
others secretly avorng the election of Gen. Cass =;
in fine that while the main question is conceded by all
parties the only dispute here Isl by chat majority the
democratic nominees will carry the State.

1t is impossible, Judging from past elections, to form a
correct estimate of the unbounded strength of Cass and
butler IN the northwestern States Though the Illinois
election may be some index to their popularity in that
State, yet the result there what from reliable IN
rect Idea OF the efficiency of our ticket here person
must pass through the country, and mingle with the
rpeople The objections which exist here regard to
General Taylor, had but very slight indirect operation
against the wing candidates at the August elections The
local candidates wings who had fought valianty,
held on to the wing principles advocated by that great
man, which, to great extent, bound to them the
bers of the old party But from the situation which
General Taylor has assumed all this lost This added
to the manner in which he treated brave and patriotic
volunteers, destroys him totally
The free-soil' movement is breaking deeply into the
wing ranks here while it but slightly touches the democ-
racy. The Van Buren, electoral ticket of this State is
composed wholly, nearly so, of whgs and eminent
ones, too-such as John II. Bradley, Fl. l.. Ellsworth,
and j. II. Cravens.
There we'll attended soil meeting held here
to-day, which was addressed by ex-member of Con-
gress, Jas. H. Cravens at which James Blair, esq,
old citizen, who has several times represented this
ty in the Legislature, and who has presided at Taylor
meetings this summer, short speech renounced lay
lor took up the of Martin Van Buren,, and told his
wing friends that all OF them who went against Martin,
under present ought to be branded with
the mark of Cain.
The plurality for Cass and Butler in this State will
range from fifteen to twenty five thousand 1t will not
be under the former, and may reach the latter number
have just received letter from of the most in
telgent men in Cincinnati which states that Ohio is safe
for Cass and Butler by at least 200 You may rely

Cass must be the next President They say publicly
