We commend the following to our Democratic
friends as a souuenir, sacred relict of@by gone
days, from their candidate for Presidency. And
especially so from the fact thathe is not likely
soon again to give utterance to 50 wholesome and
trueIy national sentiment.
"We ought (said Mr.. Buchanan) to use. every
honest exertion to turn out Of power those weak
and wicked men who have abandoned the poiiti-
cal path marked out for the country by w ashing-
ton, and whose wild and visionary theories have
been at length tested by experience and found
wanting. ABOVE ALL. WE OUGHT TO

Lies. Her jaundiced eyes see I'll things 10 false
colors. The thick atmosphere Of. prejudice, by
which she Is forever surrounded excludes from
her sight the light Of Heayen. Whilst she wor-
ships the nation for this crime, she curses the en.
emies of that nation for even their virtnes. In
every age, she has marched before TIE enemies Of
her country proclaimiDg peace when there was
no peace, and ulling its defenders into fatal Sc

party in the old Bay State thigh as kite and
set all New England in q blazel Tuesday. the 10th
was the time for meeting, when FROM seventy-fve
to one hundred persons assembled at the United
States Hotel The Traveller a neutral paper, from
which we take our figures, states that the meeting
was divided in sentiment, one portion being oppo-
sed to repudiating Fillmore nomination but desiring
only to delay endorsement until his return from
abroad. while another portion were determined TO
unite at once in the proposed New, York bolt The
latter were violent in their action sswhereupon,"
says the Traveller, "a aconsiderable number left the
meeting and those who remained chose delegates to
the New York convention, advised the holdidg Of
district conventions, each to elect three delgates
