can party of the country upon the questions
involved in the pending Presidential canvass,
to the end, that the friends of American prin-
ciples and the advocates of Messrs Fillmore
and Donelson might be distinctly and authen-
tically informed OF the present prospects of
success, and be encouraged to Use their besa
exertions to insure that success. There is
nothing In the present condition of the several
parties, nothing in the present aspect Of po-
itical affairs, to discourage the friends of Fill
more and Donelson, on the contrary, there is
everything to hope from active and general
exertion in their behalf There is no portion
Of the country where Mr.. Buchanan is sus-
tanned with the least enthusiasm, and the tts-
rore which was at first created by the COM
bined forces of Republicanism, Foreignism.
and Catholicism, has rapidly abated, in behalf
of Mr.. Fremont who, it is univer sally known,
has not the first qualification for the place for
which he was nominated
1t has been so clearly shown by Democratic
authority, that Mr.. Buchanan was nominated
to please the Van Buren, and Benton elements
Of the North, that the South will not trust him.

the North are not inclined to stand upon the

jections, which, with all Americans" are in
surmountable, and he is fast losing those por-

inaugurate the dynasty of tJohn Hughes.
Throughout the whole North and Northwest
the most rapid changes are now being made
from both Buchanan and Fremont to Millard
Fillmore. Still the foreign and Catholic ele-
ments there will adhere to Fremont, and the
office-holding Democrats will adhere to Bucha-
nan and die soith him.
Every day is adding to the conservative ele-
ments both in the North and in the South
people have become tired and sick of sectional
contests, and all such men look to Mr.. Fillmore
as the only conservative candidate, and will
rally to his standard on the day of election
The opinion has hitherto prevailed in many
sections of the country, that Mr.. Fillmore had
no chance-this idea was studiously and indus

chanan and Fremont, for their joint benefit;
but the transparent and fraudulent humbug
is now exploded, and the people understand
the purposes for which that idea was circu-
lated
Three candidates for the Presidency are now
before the people--two sectional candidates,
and one national conservative candidate-and
the people must select for themselves from
these three candidates. Fremont stands pledged
in favor of Northern sectionalism, and he is
the protege Of Seward, Greeley, and Bishop
Hughes. He is emphatically the candidate of
Republcanism, Foreignism, and Romanism.
Buchanan is the candidate Of the "squatter
sovereigns," North and South He is for con-
quering the whole world " and the rest of man
kind" He is the legatee Of the present For
ney and Pierce dynasty. The Bentons and
Van Burens Of the North claim him, and the
"fre-eaters" of the South also claim him.
Which of these two factions would be "sold,"
if he were to be elected, we know not That
is question which we trust will not be de-
cided.
Fillmore is the candidate of the conserva-
tives, the friends of the Union, the advocates
of peace and harmony, both North and South.
He would restore quiet to the country, nor

against the South, nor taUor the South as
against the North.
These three candidates are in the field, and
they will remain in the field II is for the
people to decide for themselves which one of
them would be the most likely to administer
the government SO as to promote the highest
prosperity Of the country, and to insure the
highest degree of safety to our institutions.
