The city of Baltimore has spoken in tone
not to be misunderstood, and indicated in the
most decisive manner her preference for Mr..
Fillmore. This fact decides the vote Of Mary
land. For, in former years, when Maryland
voted for Harrison, in 1886 and 1S40, Bslti.
more gave large msjorities for Van Buren,
Even in 1S4s, Baltimore refused her vote for
General Taylor, although he swept the State
like tornado.
Last year Baltimore gave but 1853 majority
for the American ticket, yet tho Americans
carried the State by about 9,000majority. She
now gives the American ticket majority OF
1854, which insures the State for Fillmore
and DOnelson by at least 5000 majority.
We trust that those timid men who prefer
Mr.. Fillmore to any other candidate, but who
have ayowed their determination to vote for
Mr.. Buchanan or Mr.. Fremont, because, in
their opinion, Mr.. Fillmore cannot be elected,
win take courage from the result in Baltimore,
and resolve to come up to the work like men,
and vote for the man of their choice. They
may rely upon It that the American victory in
Baltimore is but the presage Of still moro bril-
liant victories soon to be achieved in every
section Of the Union-and that the South espe.
cially win respond to the voice Of the old Ma
ryland line with an enthusiasm seldom equalleC
in any former Presidential election.

Louis II. TasistrO, Esq.-M0re proof OF
Frpmnufss GnfhnIscSavn


This eloquent and accomplished orator arrived in
our city yesterday, aud made brief speech at the
Twelfth Ward meeting last night. He has been in
vited and has consented TO stump the State of Ohio
for Millardl Fillmore. he will commence his first tour
tomorrow ard we cordially commend him to our
American friends throughout the State, not only as
speaker Of great ability, but high-minded aud
accomplished gentleman
Mr.. TGsistro was appointed official translator for
our government by Gen. Taylor. This position can
only be filled by gentleman of unusual requirements
as Government carries on correspondence in the
French Spanish, German, Russian Portuguese and
Low Butch dialects. This correspondence is pre-
pared by the official translator.
Mr. Tasistro held this position until about three
months since, when finding his American sentiments
disagreeable to the Administration, he resigned his
position. Being warm personal friend Of Willard
Fillmore, and having held office under him. Mr. 4.
feels it no less duty than pleasure to take the
stump in this contest In behalf of the American
party we bid him welcome to Ohio Mr.. Tasstro is
very important witness to Mr.. Fremont's Roman
Catholicism. Having lived in Washington for the
past twelve years, and being personally acquainted
with Colonel Fremont Mr.. I. is highly competent TO
testify.
In his speech last evening, Mr. Tasistro said he
was intimately acquainted with Father Van Horsegh
that Father Van Horseigh informed him that he err
acted from Colonel Fremont confession of the Odto-
JIG faith at the time of has marriage, in order to have
the matter beyond dispute; that he often conversed
with Father II. about Colonel FPS marriage and
on such occasions, Father V. H. invariably claimed
Colonel r. as a communicate of his church To this
statement Mr.. Tasstro is ready to make oath at any
timel
In view of the proof already accumulated, afdavts
statements from Catholic Bishops and Priests Cath
Ollie journals, and laymen, from well known Protes-
tants proof which has never been contradicted,
how can Protestant American vote for John G.
Fremont?

The municipal election il Baltimore yester-
day resulted in decisive victory to the Anne
rican party. Our gallant brethren ia that city
entered upon the contest with fun conscious
ness that the eyes of the Americans Of the
whole country were upon them, and that upon
the result of their efforts on Wednesday vast
consequences depended. Nobly have they re-
asserted their claim to the title Of the brayest
Of the brave. !" Undismayed and unterrihed by
the formidable and murderous preparations Of
their adyersaries, backed by the money Of the
National Administration, they boldly flung the
star-spangled banner to the breeze and risked
life itself in the discharge of their duty as free
men and electors
As reward for their courage and patriot
ism, Mr.. Swami, their candidate for Mayor,
was elected by an overwhelming majority, and
an assurance given Of majority of 1000 votes
for Fillmore and DoneIson
We append the vote for Mayor from the
Baltimore American:

Pennsylvania.

A slip from Bristol, Pennsylvania, informs
us Of a grand mass meeting held there during
last week. in the proceedings of which meeting
the following statement is made, to wit:
"And no triokery now being concocted by our OPP
ponents, who endorse the Pierce doctrines, pre-
vail against the Americans of Bucks in their deter
mination to cast solid vote for both their State and
county tickets, on the 14th instant Here there are
no divisions. Here they STAND FIRM"
If the rascality, or "trickery," concocted by
the Buchanan men prevails, it will not be be-
cause it has not boon exposed We sent our
daily of last Thursday, containing the expo
sure of it, to goodly number Of Americans
in Pennsylvania, and we are glad to find the
article extensively copied by our exchanges.
We learn, however, that an amount, proba-
bly, not less than halt a million gt dollars, has
been collected and carried irto that State, to
buy up all the purchasable political material
floating on its surface, and that many thousands
Of foreigners have recently obtained naturali-
Eation papers there, three-fourths of whom
have, doubtless, committed perjury in procuring
their papers; and further, that thousands of
Buchanan voters are to be taken into that State
from New York and Maryland
There is no mistake on these points, and
hence, whilst we believe that majority Of
thirty or forty thousand legal voters of Penn
sylyania are opposed to Buchanan, we shall
not be much surprised if The various fraudu
lent schemes and devices resorted to by their
leaders, shall IL 6art the expression of the
peoples will on the 14th instant so far, especi.
alIy as relates to the Canal Commissioner. We
say, this would not surprise us, though we
cannot believe, in advance, that either one of
the Buchanan State candidates will be elected.
Whilst, therefore, the defeat Of the Bucha-
nan State ticket on Tuesday next, would en-
.irely destroy the hopes of Buchanan for the
Presidency, its success would only encourage
him to hold on and take the chances in Novem-
Der, but it would by no means afford him any
reliable ground of hope for success. New
York, Ohio, Indiana, and the other Northern
and Western States, will give him quietus,
even though he should succeed by the various
articles resorted to, in Pennsylvania. Hecannot
get forty electoral votes in the free States, nor
will he get ninety votes by any possible means
in the South, and we doubt whether he can
get seventy-fve, even ifhe should carry Penn
sylvania on the 14th instant.
Success in Pennsylvania, in the State cleo
ton, would but postpone the modification
which Mr.. Buchanan and his friends are des-
tined to experience His election is, in our
judgment, impracticable, utterly so, and the
sooner he and bis friends satisfy themselves o.
this, the sooner will the true Union men in
the Democratic ranks array themselves ON the
side Of the conservative American party, and
consign ultraism to the tomb of oblivion,
