Correspondence Of The n. Y. Tribune.

LANCASTER, Ia, OcI. I, 100
! am in Lancaster again for few days to pay nay
respects to James b. Platform. esq., and his
cohorts of the Slave Oligarchy of the South. How
ever before any other more serious announcements
allow me TO say that there resides in Berks County
Oh old and quite celebrated prophet, who has OBJ
tanned considerable notoriety among the Germans
of this State, far and near for the truthfsness of
the fortunes he tells his customers or patrons. A
noted friend of the Sage of Wheatland, while NJ the
Berks County Agricultural Fair called upon the
prophet and asked to be told the fortune OF the
different candidates for the Presidency. The
prophet looked into his kaleidoscope and said the
name Of James Buchanan not in his books;
that FillmOres name had been there but has been
erased; that FIemont's name WAS there, surrounded
with thirty-One stars-whereupOn he announced
tLat Fremont would be the next President in spite
of Z" all the werld and the rest of mankind.
Wheatland is delightful country seat, about
mile from the city. on beautiful hillside over
locking the larger portion OF the county The
Sage frequently walks into town, quietly smoking
bis half-Spansh cigar by the way until he se,s TO
Michaels Hotel. He does not look half so we'll
ms he did the day before be received the news from
Maine. His cOuntenance has dstresslngly sad
EXPRESSION III though he was labOrlng under some
severe mental excitement SOme oi his political
friends say that he is laboring under disease
which has but little sympathy, that OF desperation
of the hcart-and excuse his nervous, quick starts
~ the appeararce of every little noise and appari-
ton. Now that the Hon. Horace Bnney, the noble
conservative of Philadelphia, has declared himself
for Fremont, Mr. Buchanan smokes his cigar more
beryously, aud walks with more feeble aud not
tering step. The announcement That Jonn NJ
Read had taken the stump for Fremont was another
bombshe in their camp. l ran safely say that the
ofE and Freedom PeuIsy ANA
has enlisted all the brightest gerius in the state,
md every day adds to its columns the support OF
the sturdy yeomatry, the mechanic, and laboring
man Of the country. Two months ago, Eastern
PENNSYLVANIA looked dark, and our prospects were
oloomy: now it is revOusonized The people ore
beng aroused from their apathy. Bdrlingane has
been here; Hamlin was mere; Hale Is IN the State;
Wilmot is working hard; Cameron IL dong extra
ordinary service; Stevens. the Thurlow Weed OF
PENNSYLVANIA, is the coadutor of them all. Ex-
Goserr or Johnston, Ex-senator Cooper, the lion.
James Campbell the Hon. Jno. {. kunkel, tie
Hon. II. T.. Roberts, Henry {. Carey, Joseph Il.
Fry. and host of other such good men, are lab0f-
ing hard, long and well in the mighty cause OF
Freedom. The Buccaneers are working as hard.
Tie weakness Of tEeir array OF talent, and
the vichedness Of their cause, adds daily
10 our strength. Next Wednesday the Dem
ocrats are to have meeting here, and, as usual
they have announced some Southern speakers
