"Knowing tina. at the present time a

our candidate, Willard Fillmore; also, that
these false representations, il not counterac-

this circular TO our friends abroad 10 assure
them that wo are well satisfied from our re-

we shall give the American ticket such II
vote nv will ensure tho State beyond doubt,
for Willard Fillmore and Andrew J. Donel

conjecture, but is based upon actual returns,
made by the various clubs and associations,

desire our friends everywhere TO be of good
