would have been triumphsntly elected
II is an indisputable truth that the South
seriously and extensively distrust Mr. Buchan-
an, and it is equally true that they have an
abiding confidence in tho integrity of Mr. Fill
more, and we may add, that the ONLY WEAPON
used in thewhole South against Mr.. Fillmore
was, He has no chance" Had Pennsylvania
gone against Old Buck in October, this weapon
of assault upon Mr.. Fillmore would have been
laid aside, and the ralying cry there would
have been, " Fillmore, the Constitution and
the Union +"
And now, if there be one man in the nation
who in his heart rejoices at the result, qoe do
not enpy him in his rejoicings If there be
one man in the nation who would rather be
James Buchanan, with the reflections he must
experience in the knowledge of the infamous
frauds practised TO secure his elevation, than
Millard Fillmore, with the consciousness he
enjoys that his friends are guiltess of political
chicanery, and that the hearts of the American
people are with him, whilst their suffrages
have been unwillingly cast against him, neither
do zoe enuy such man his preference.
Were it not that we ant cipate such com
bination Of the elements of Forneyism, Ro-
manism, and demagoguism, under the admin
istration Of Buchanan, as will probably be re
sistless, and such as will effectually crush the
conservative elements which exist in the coun-
try, we might look forward with hope, to such
a reaction in the public mind as would call
forth Millard Fillmore from his retirement, in
1860, by the united voices of the American
people, whose suffrages, interests, and welfare,
have now been controlled by set of profigate
knaves and political hucksters, who would
sell the liberties Of the people of this country,
for four years plunder of the Treasury.
But, when we consider that the election Of
Buchanan will give an impetus to foreign i'm
migration which will cause the prisons aud
poor-houses of all Europe to "spew out" their
convicts and paupers upon our shores when
Of souls from the Old World every year during
his administration; and when we reflect that
tsoo hundred Thousand Doters will thus be an
nualy added to the sham Democratic party
which party has thrown down all the barriers
to the immediate enjoyment of suffrage mot
only by the alien suffrage feature of their
Kansas legislation, but by the practice of their
hireling judges and clerks Of courts y when we
reflect upon these things, hoio can we ever ex-
pect that anything short of revolution will
bring honest hearted and true Americans"
into powerp
Does any man doubt that the spring of 1867
will exhibit an Importation of the "cargoes of
crime folly, and reclSlessness, which Europe
annually ships off to America" quadrupling
the importations of 1866? 1t is notorious that
the existence and success of the American par
ty during the past two or three years, has par
TALLY stopped that tremendous influx which
has been previously witnessed, and it is equal
ly certain, that the present success Of the for
eigR party viii react with tremendous power,
aud not only restore, but vastly increase that
former influx.
1t i5 possible and it is TO be hoped-and
we would gladly add that it is to be eppected,
that when this unquestioned effect of the cleo
tion of Buchanan shall be realized, the conser-
vatiye masses of the people will open their
eyes to the direfu consequences of his election,
and God grant it may not then be too late, to
rally the American-born people of the United
States in support of American statesmen and
an American policy.
We confess with pain that we look towards
the political future of our country with the
deepest apprehensions for the stability and
perpetuity of our present institutions. If for
eign immigration be not speedily checked--if
demagoguism be not speedily rebuked by the
American people if Romanism be not watch
ed and thwarted, it is just as certain and in
evitable as natural death to the physical man,
that American institutions must soon yield to
the corrupting, enervating pestiferous malaria
of ioreignism.
