The Day Breaks.

We would not, if We could, mislead our
friends, either ia this or other States, concern
ing the prospect of Fillmore aud Donelson in
New York; but we would fall short Of our duty
were we To omit To assure our fellow laborers
In the good cause, that with the efforts and
exertions of the last two weeks continued un
iii the election NEW YORK Is SURE FOR
FILLMORE AND DONELS0N! Indeed, it
is our sober Judgment that this day the Ameri.
cans hold tie State in their own hands. We
express this belief after making due allowance
after a full and candid survey of the field.
and of the testimony coming zip 10 Us from all
ouariers-testimony we cannot reject without
prououncing ourselves wiser than handreds of
well-nformed men scattered all over the State,
and who have never yet deceived or mised US.
Hundreds and thousands of voters who, a
month ago, were disposed TO support Fremont,
are now ia the Fillmore ranks. The more
Mr.. Fremont and bis managers become known,
the wesker he grows. In one instance we
hear of an entire Fremont club going over in
a body 10 Fillmore. There is not an election
or school district in the State that does not
furnish instances of twOs, tves and teIis doing
the same thing. After the appointed day on
which the world was to be destroyed had pass
ed, and the humbug proved, the falling away
more marked or decisive than are the secessions
from Fremontisin. This is going on daily aud
hourly at an accelerated rate, willie the acces-
sions TO Fillmore from the Buchanan ranks of
those who have become convinced of the utter
hopelessness of his prospects ia this Stale, and
who, like patriots, have conceived il their
duty under the circumstances TO support Mr.
Fillmore are at q scarcely less rapid rate
There is in rhe canvass scarcely another feature
go marked as this.
At the same time, the Americans everywhere
are at work. They no longer doubt their
ability TO carry the State. They are confident
DEFIANT. The deusion which our opponents
were enabled to keep up for some time, that
Mr.. Fillmore had no chance, has given place
70 that confidence which is the precursor Of
victory.
This is the way New York stands to-day;
and no man who hss any thing &C. lose, will
hazard bis reputation by denying that the
Fillmore party is the only gaining party in
New York. AIbaRy Statesman.

Cr1TvAr1oX OF CRANBERRIES.-At the New
Hampshire State Fair, r. II. Auburn, exhi-
hibitcd some cultivated CranberricS raised in
run not very wet, but bordering upon the high
land His process Of cultivation he stated to
be this: to remove the surface of the earth
some three inches in depth, which in this case
was carted to the pig stye ; he then took sand
from the shore Of pond, and spread it plenti-
fully upon the ground, second year after this
he had plentiful crop This was done three
years pgo.-And the vines now cover the
ground completely, no grass or weeds being
present He has done nothing to the vines
since, and says the average yield will be, the
present year, two bushels of cranberries to
every ten feet square. He esteems this the
most profitable crop he can cultivate. He
has five acres OF this land which he intends to
appropriate to this use.
When it is considered that fruit is now sold
at not less than two dollars a bushel in our
markets, this may be considered as farming to
some purpose and profit.
