"There is no difficulty in understanding the

stand III solid ard anbrokfn mass by the side
of TAYLOR and FILLMORE. II there arc as

the man is, nor 10 We believe there is such
person in this Commonwealth"
We scarcely thought j, possible that, even 10
the highest excitement OF party, such an abomi'
nabe sen,imen, could be uttered in The South
misunderstanding himself in favor OF The abo-
lilion of The slavelrade between the States and in
favor of immediate legislation Tor the abolition OF
slavery in the District of Columbia this infamous
letter has been published and commented upon in
the press and on the huslinss-its authenticity
has not seriously been denied-and now The
Republican boasts that "at no moment Of time
from The hour oil The Philadelphia nominations 10
this day have the Whig rank and file OF Virginia
ever pauersd or dreamed OF wayering in" the
support OF Fillmore, who writes himself down IN
plain and broad letters an abolionisl OF The
deepest dye! Whatever The Republican or The
Wing leaders may say, we cannot believe thai
''the Wing rank aud file OF Virginia" have sunk
so low, tina, they will support an unaduherated
aboli,ionisl. The Wing leaders will find 10 their
sorrow, tina, no, only one, but hundreds and
thousands OF Wings in Virginia will "desert the
cause" oil The aboliionis; Fillmore. We speak
unders,andinsly. The voice OF Indignation is

storm which will sweep the Fllmorenes GU; OF

The Wing leaders TO holi out their bold bids Tor The
vote Of the Northern aboilioniss. Virginia by
an overwhelming vote will crush such unhal.
lowed associations.
The name OF Zachary Taylor will give no
said and comfort" to The Fillmurenes. A South
ern man as he is, be has allowed his name TO be
used by The North in aiming al Southern rights,
and he has volunteered to endorse as "sound and
conservati The sentiments OF man who is a
notorious ab1lilonisr. The Charleston Mercu-

The N. o. Courier, referring TO Gen. rs re-
commentator Of Fillmore as ''jus;ly entitled 10

force:
