The Tide Turned.

The New York Tribune, short time
ago, affected to believe the chances of Mr..
Fillmore success too insignificant to merit
notice 1t has now changed its tone. 1t
begins to see that he is the dangerous
competitor Of Its favorite. 1t says:
The South American Party at present
evinces more vitality and vigor in our
State than does that which enjoys the
sympathies and fraternity of by far the
larger share of the Missouri border ruff
fans.
The New York Herald has also changed
its tone 1t regards Mr. Fillmore pros
poets as greatly improved, whilst Ar.
Buchanan's are becoming dark, OF the
latter it says:
sMr. Buchanan, on the other hand, is
already slackening in his gait very per
ceptibly. His papers are deserting him
here and there, and his most active drum
mers seem to be laboring in vain to get
up little enthusiasm The stuff of which
I popular enthusiasm is made, however, is
not IN him, and cannot be brought out OF
him. Through his whole life he has been
a cold and timid man. following in the
wake of other men. We don't hear any
thing of late OF Mr. Buchanan. Had the
Presidential election taken place the da,
or the week after the Cincinnati Conven
ton, he would hardly have had show O
resistance; but he has been losing grounc
ever since. Even Capt Rynders, witt
his well-drilled Empire Club and his faith
full six-pounder, can hardly make nois
enough for the Democratic candidate t
be heard beyond the iron railings of tn

Testimony of Lewis Cass in Favor of
Miiiard Fillmore

In March 1851, Lewis Cass, than whom
there Is not more devoted partizan among
the prominent men of the country, deliy-
cred speech on the floor of the Senate.
In the course of which he paid the follow
ing compliment to Millard FiIlmore's in
tegrity, and to his ineificiency in "pascify-
ing the country" We quote from the
Congressional Globe:
The Administration has placed itself
high in the great work of pseifying the
couktry. and they have received the need
of appreciation from political friends and
political foes l partake of the same
sentiment 1 do them justice. But am
Democrat. and, God willine, mean to
die one This is a Whig Administration
but there is no reason why should not do
them justice; and L do it with pleasure. in
this great matter of the salvation of this
country, If | may say so. / have done
so; shall continue to do so, whatever sneers
their papers may contain, for do it not
for their sake, bul for the sake of the
country Speech of Mr. Cess in the SEN
ate OF the United States, March 10 1851.
This was not only q manly tribute from
devoted partizan, but will serve now as
withering rebuke to those lesser lights
of Democracy, who essay to defame one
of the nCb!est statesmen OF America

NEW YORK. July IL. 1856.

In this State there are 53 Fillmore and
DOnelsOn Journals No less than
three Democratic papers have come out
for Fillmore in ten days, and more are
coming. Indeed, the struggle in this
State now appears to be, not as at FIRST
expected, between Fillmore and Buchan
an but between Fillmore and Fremont
When this fact becomes demonstrated, as
1t viii be, Mr. Fillmore's prospects vii
increase greatly by the addition of the
Democratic conservative vote. We cease
to fear Buchanan any more here, now thai
the Softs are going over by the hundred:
and thousands to Fremont"
