From the Albany Statesman.
Good PROSPECTS,.


Each returning day gives increased evidence Of
the final success of Fillmore The charms which
hang around the Democratic nominee, and by
which it was fondly hoped he might win over
sufficient force TO secure his election, are one by
one being dissipated and he now stands before the
,eople as simple James Buchanan, of Federal no
toriety, who 80 despises Democratic blood that he
would incise himself to be free from the touch OF
the unclean thing; who believes that ten cents per
day is sufficient remuneration for manual labor |;
Who, as principal, signed the notorious Defend
Congress Letter; who, at one day, resolved TO
prevent the existence of slavery in any of the
States or Territories" and or another occasion,
adopted the principles Of the Douglas N ebraska
pil-the intended effect Of which was, and is like
y to be- the establishments Of the institution there;
yho, as Polk's Secretary of State, declared that
this government, according to national right and
according to international law, was entitled to
fftyfour degrees and forty minutes, as line Of
territory on the great North West, and then shrank
oack to fortynne degrees" declared the claim
% be clear and nnq'sextionable, and then surren-
dered it to Great Britain; who, as Perce's Minis
Ter to England left the Central American difficult
ties as ne found them-the Enlistment question
worse than II was at the beginning debated the
Clayton Bulwer treaty, but never concluded il, de-
elaring our rights to be, as in the Oregon contro-
versy, clear and unqasstiona6te," yet never as
serted them. We Call upon the whole world TO-
efer us to one act he has ever done to commend
i'm to those who deem 1t their duty TO place an
lole statesman at the head of our governments
Al these are facts founded on history, and no so
phistry or denial can exp ain them away.
And now we tu n from bad TO worse Sixteen
states, one half only Of this glorious Republic
ssernble in convention, with their blood heated By
nsgnifed wrongs and, laying no claim TO nation-
ity, adopt sectional platform, and place upon
TIA Wild A1venturer as their standard-bcarer--a
man who has wandered amid the wilds Of the
Rocky Mountains, but who IS comparatively un
known in the councils Of State who, by acci
lent only, ard for the lack of better man from
the land ON whose shores he had been cast, was
,ermitted for half year. to mingle in the coun-
lie cf our Senste; who is now standing upon
Uisunion platform, the success OF which would
only increase tho bitter animosity now existing
between the North and South;-a wild soldier of for
tune, inflated with the pride of wealth. and the
sabservient tool Of hwning sycophants. .''
We want no more ns1 nae,i. Wewant no more
imbeciles and impotents who have passed into
their dotage, without one act to commend them
20 our confidence; but the security Of our institu-
IONS and every feeling Of the great national heart
demand that one who has been tried and found
faithful, equal 70 every emergency in which he
may be called upon to act-who knows no North
or no South, and nothing but his Country
again be placed in that position where the great
power be can call in requisinon may be exercised,
90 quiet our distracted country aud restore it 10
che position 1t occupied when he abandoned its
councils. 9aos9ssa3 1fE .ele 99t&i ErsY tea ID
