WING journal with the view of giving an indie

the administration OF Mr.. FILLMORE. These prin-
ciples correspond entirely with those of the last
WING National Convention and substantially with
those OF the Inaugural Address ofPresident PIERCE

sent Administration on any ground that it has
occupied in its initial manifesto .r
