"Well, then. since you insist upon it, I
should like to have a riuglet of your glossy

The lady manifested no embarrassment at
the bold REQUEST, but With pair Of scissors

even averred that Mr. Fillmore is Indifferent

We take this occasion. therefore. to say
that no man 10 the country is more earnestly

preaching election than Mr. Fillmore. His

the success of his policy Of peace. and itST APP
