Mr.. Fillmore and his Assailants.

conservative incumbent Of the Executive
chair would stand but a small chance for
fair hearing were all candid and honest men
dead. 1t is fortunate for the country, as
well as himself, that such is not the case. |
and that the principle Of honorable dealing
still rules paramount in the minds Of the
great mass of the American people.
Mr.. FILLMonE's position before the
American people may be deemed fortunate
or unfortunate, according to the peculiar
views, interests, prejudices, or partialities
of those who allow their passions to master
both judgment and patriotism, and who are
swayed alone by selfish and anti-republcan
motives. We consider it fortunate for him,
for the Government over which he so ably
presides, and for the people at large, that he
Is compelled to encounter the unrelenting
malice of the nltras Of both sections Of the
Union-of the abolitioniSts Of the North
and of the Seccssionists of the South--who,
with nothing else in common, cordially unite
in hcaping abuse and slandor upon the head
of him who steruly and nCbly thwarted both
factions in their sacrilcgious crusade against
the integrity and permanencc Of the Union.
1t is fortunate for him, for the opposition Of
unbridled ianaticism on the one hand, and
the fierce assaults Of misguided ultraism on
the other, will have tendency to cause
moderate, reilecting and patriotic citizens
to investigate coolIy and importia!iy his
public course, and the reasons therefore,
which, once done, must lead to verdict in
his favor. The rancornus and deadly as
saults Of the abolition press ard party, all
over the North; indicative. sweeping, and
unsparing in dcnunciation OF him and his
measures; proclaimng that he is Il traitor to
the interests OF the North, that lie has
betrayed them 10 the slave power, and that
he has sold himself, body, soul, and pros
poets, to the slavery propagandlsts OF the
South-will, must prove, to all conservative
menin the slaveholdng States, that such a
man is worthy their confidence, that he will
never forfeit pledge, and that the welfare
Of the whole country will be safe when CON-
tidcd to the dreeion OF his wise, honest,
and prudent management. And the violent
assertions OF southern ultraists, maintaining
that lie is an abolitionist OF the most odious
stamp--that he has sacrificed the rights OF
the slaveholding States-that he las sought
to deprive them Of privileges guaranteed by
the Constltuliou-lhat he has IN utter ab-
horrence to the institutions Of slav cry as it
exists under our national organic law, and
that he will eagerly embrace the first op-
portunity to deal it dcath-blow, will un-
doubted!y have strong tendency TO bring
to his support the good, the Intelligent, and
+, Union-loying people Of the North.
The ultra aboltionists denounce him as q
traitor to the North, exhausting the vocabu-
larry Of abuse to express their detestation.
The rubd secessionists OF the South declare
with unscrupulous violence that he has al
ready betrayed, and will continue 10 betray,
unto utter ruin, the dearest interests of the
South, should they again be contidod to his
hands, The extremes meet, coalescc. shake
hands, and heartily unite on one thing
; which is, 70 break down if possible, our
present patriotic, Trustworthy, national!
conservative, prudent, and wise ChefMag'
israte.
We have said We consider it fortunate tina
/ Mr.. Fillmore is subjected TO the virulen
= opposition of these two attipodal extremes
= for it will induce careful reflection among

r abolitionsts Of New York, fearing the nom
