The most amusing Incident that trauspired in con-
nection with Mr.. Filmores temporary sojourn in onr
midst his meeting with Prince John Van Buren,.
IT took place the platform at the capitol while Mr..
Fillmore shaking hands with the immense crowd
there assembled The Prince took his regular turn
in the crowd NJ they passed by the distinguished
statesman, and when he came up and took Mr. Fill
more by the hand, tremendous shout went up from
the multitude. Some cried out at the top OF their
voices, GIVE him the grip, while robust Ameri
can occupied himself by patting John on the bnck
and asking him TO repent. Mr.. Fillmore laughed
heartily during the entire ceremony, which lasted
minutes while the Prince preserved the great
est degree of dignity and finally left the platform,
apparently pretty well satisfied that he had strayed
INTO the wrong crowd.
THE prospects of Mr. Fillmore in this State
daily growing brighter, and you may depend upon II
that the Empire State will render most glorious
count of herself on the 9TH day of November next
occasion, and It is astonishing 10 witness daily the

under an abolition sermon from Rev. Dudley A.

guarding the casual reader against confounding
this political preacher with DR.. Stephen H. Tying

influence in his church. The Episcopal Church
has thus far, We believe, resisted. in its General
Convention, tho tide Of anatioisn with which sorno
other eoclesiastical bodies have been inundated
We sincerely trust that it may continue to do so
and that this Philadelphia Parson may be taught
a lesson which he will not forget
The Union thus speaks of portion of Mr..
| Filmore's speech, delivered at Albany. The
patriotism Of Mr.. F.'s sentiments EFFORTS praise
even from his political opponents:
| Mr. Fillmore has exposed the disuuion character
OF the black republican nomination with great clear
! ness and boldness. His argument is unanswerable
The Philadelphia convention took the first stem In ,bc
