hope that victory will crown their first national
struggle, and that the ides of November will be-
halloyed by the election Of Miard Fillmore and
Andrew jackson Donelson as President and Vics
President of the United States of America. Such
aresult would tranqnilize the country and inspire
general confidence and hope. Washington was
necessary to establish the principles of American
Union-a Fillmore is equally necessary now I'd
restore their authority, maintain their purity and
