TO tie Editor of the american Organ
DEAR SIR am one on the long fist Of "Old-hue
Wings" who. until the recent convention here were
inclined to stand neutral in the coming Presidential
election (he most important and exciting issue that
has ever been decided at the ballotbox) simply be-
cause, we took sides, considered we would have
TO choose between the two eyiIs''- Buchanan and
Fremont; but few short months have wrought a
great change in public sentiment and the "Old.llne
Wings" now feel assured that in uniting with the
American party" they will not be contributing to
the election OF either Fremont or Buchanan, but 10
the triumphant success Of Millard Fillmore "who
has already been tried and not found wanting"
Daily we receive fresh accounts Of the conversion Of
prominent Democrats and Democratic Clubs, and
Fremont Clubs, from all quarters and You have no
doubt already received and published the speech OF
Governor Floyd, in New York, endorsing Mr, Fll
more. Certainly his testimony will have its weight
with the true national Democracy. Never has POI
ical feeling so completely taken possession OF all
classes in Baltimore at the present time. Nothing
IA talked of among the merchants the mechanics,
the professional men, and indeed all circles but the
coming citv election. There is no doubt of Swans
election BY a very decided majority. This seems 10
be admitted on all sides. m
have mingled freely with the merchants and the
farmers from all parts Of this State during the last
month, aud speak the general sentiment Of the
State when say there is no doubt that Millard Fill
more will carry the old State Of Maryland by an over
whelming majority All the respectable old farmers
say, We want peace and quiet;" and all the mer-
chants say "We do not want entangling alliances !"
and I'VE do not want sectional or party agitation /"
and eve do not like tiibustering platform" and
we knew Mr. Fillmore has been tried and he steered
clear Of all these tronbes during his administrstou

Come, freemen arouse prepare for the fight, 9f
From hill and from valley, come forth in your might
Our flag waves above US, to arms is the cry,
And IN its defence we will conquer or die
Come flock TO the standard with heart and with hand,
Let Americans form an invincible band
And send to oblivion the bigots and slaves,
Who would trample our flag on our forefathers
graves.
OF pAupers and beggars amongst us are hordes,
Who now would rule over our freemen like lords,
Who insult free flag, and its beauty would stain
Nor let one fair star Of its glory remain.
Loud raise the fierce war cry the wild eagle scream
Is re-echoed again over mountain and stream,
Let the buge's shrill blast and the loud rafting
drum,
Proclaim to all frcemen the crisis has come.
Ye bigoted sons Of old Erin-beware
Ye priestridden bandits Of Europe take care,
Ye have reused the bold sons of Columbia again,
And their wAr.cry is heard over city and plain.
