NIX. BUCHANAN DISPOSED OF.
An extraordinary change has taken PLACE
within the last two weeks, and If anylhins
in the uorla as a settled fact I consider i
settled that Buchanan is entirely ont of Ht
question. (Chcers.) He ,eW not be elected
either BY tic House Of Representatives or b,
the people. The battle ground is not in
Pennsylvania, as is supposed 4 few week,
ago it was. According to my calculation
The battle ground IS IN New Fork. Every
thing depends upon the result in that State.
Buchanan being out of the question, if Fill
more gets that, as all his friends insist upon
as matter of necessity, IL carries the cleo
ton into the House. Nobody can be elect
ed by the people, if Fillmore gets that
Buchanan may get all the South--and he as
not going to get them By si:c-he is not going
to get Maryland, Kentucky, Tennesse, Loa-
as'ona--ond strange as 1t mag sound, there
is no certainty Of has gazing to get Virginia.
Cheers Wise was elected by ten thous-
and majority over Flournoy, no less than
ten thousand wings having voted for him.
We want bot FIVE thousand to give us ma
jority. We viii not only get that number,
but we may get ten thousand. CHEERS y
There were about FIVE or six thousand that
did not vote at all, but who will vote nov
since Fillmore has been endorsed by the
Baltimore Convention.
FREMONT TO BE ELEcTED by THE uousn OF
REPRESENTATIVES,
l freely admit that had no coAdonee in
the State, but my opinion is entirely chang
ed. Buchanan has no chance Of n York
and the election will therefore 90 70 the
House of Representatives, eedeas Fremont Is
likely 10 be electsd.
Mr.. Bolts thanked the audience fer tie
attentive manner in which they had listened
to him, and thereupon took his seat amid
enthusiastic applause. The meeting dis
