Mr.. Fillmore and Abolition.

The metropolitan organ of the Democracy
complains bitterly of President FILLMORE in
regard to certain letter which he is alleged
to have written some thirteen years ago, which
has been revived of late, and, in garbed i'm
preston, is circulating in the newspapers. We
suppose that every thing possible was made out
of this letter during the last Presidential cam
paign. 1t was printed and reprinted ten thou
sand times. 1t was the staple of stump
speeches and party resolutions, and the Ameri.
can people elected Mr.. FILLMORE to the Vice
Presidency in spite of it. If they thought it Of
little consequence at that time, when they did
not know Mr.. FILLMORE, of how much less
consequence must they now consider it, when
they have tried and have learned to trust him
But on this point we could refer the Union,
to good southern authority, if any were want
ing, to vindicate Mr.. FILLMoRE's position. On
several occasions recently, in Tennessee, Cen
eral CAMPBELL has stated that he had served
in the Congress of the United States with Mr..
FILLMORE, and knew him to be as free from abo-
ltion sentiments as any man of the North.
"Mr. FILLMoRE's acts, he said, "since he has
come into office sustain me in this assertion.
: He was not, like Mr.. VAN buren,, the former
great Democratic President, a northern man
with southern principles only TO catch votes,
but who, when that was done, could coolly

"frends of the Union, without distinction of par

expectation. have read the names, and, as you
suggest may be probable, many of them are known
to me, and know them to be men of high honor
and character, of business and industry, of great
stakes in the country, and active supporters and
props OF all the institutions Of benevolence and
charity, morality and religion, literature and
science, which adorn the great commercial metro
polls of the United States.
Gentlemen, have wish to appear in public
for purposes OF ceremony entertainment, nor
can say that feel the necessity of any occasion
At present to express my sentiments in regard to
public affairs. All that think and all that feel
on the great topics of the hour is concealed from
nobody. But Notwithstanding all this, and not.
withstanding that my public duties arc likely to
demand my attention rather imperativcly for some
weeks To come, yet cannot persuade myself to say
that may not, at no distant time, make an effort
to meet my friends in New York.
One thing, gentlemen, is certain, that If adj
dress you at any time. you will hear no change Of
tone, nor any faltcring voice, in support of that
cause which 10 dear to your hearts and TO mine

FRIDAY MORNING, MAY Is. 1851.

"The series of measures to which have alluded
are regarded by me as a settlement, in principle

Gus and exciting subjects which they embraced"
"By that adjustment we have been rescued from

"The Presidents message, at the opening oft the
present session Of Congress, expresses fully and
6 plainly his own and the unanimous opinion RI all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
{ stration of the Government, in regard to what
8 are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-
sures of last session. That opinion is, that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
9 final settlement of the dangerous and exciting
9 subjects which they embrace; that though they
9 were not free from imperfections. yet, in their
{ mutual dependence and connection, they formed
Ga system of compromise the most conciliatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
6 opinions, and that therefore they should be ad-
hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further legislation to
guard against evasion or abuse. That opinion, 80
6 far as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace of the country requires this the security OF
sthe Constitution requires this; and every considc-
6 ration of the public good demands this. If the
8 Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message, it does not expect to stand at all
