a FABLE FOR STRONG. MINDED w OMEN
The following beautiful fable will
attract attention by the truthful lesson
it imparts:
"Oak,' said the vine, "bend your
trunk so that you may be support to
me"
"My support" replied the oak, sis
naturally yours, and sou may depend
on my strength to bear you up,but am
too solid to bend, Put your arms
around me, my pretty vine, and ! will
manlully support and cherish you, if
you have ambition to climb as high as
the clouds. While thus hold you up,
you will ornament my rough trunk
with youI pretty green leaves and
scar let berries. They will be rs front
lets to my head, as stand in the forest,
like a glorious warrior with all his
plumes. We were made by the great
Master to grow together, and that by
our union the weak may be made
strong, and the strong render aid to
the weak"
"But | wish to grow independently"
said the vine, "why cannot you Irvine
around me, and let me grow up straight
and not be a mere dependent upon
you?'
Mature" answered the oak, "did
not design it. 1t is impossible that you
should grow to any height alone, and
if you try it, the winds and rains, if not
your own weight, will bring you to the
ground. Neither is it proper for you
to run your arms hithcr and thithe,
among the trees, for they will say it is
not my vine, it is Il stranger--gct thee
gone: will not cherish thee. BY this
time thou wilt be so cntangled among
the different branches that thou can.
not get back to the oak; and nobody
will admire thee or pity thee"
"Ah me- said the vine, "let me cs.
cape from such destiny" and with
this she twincd herself aronnd the OAK
and both grew and lourished happily
together.

October IL, 1856. J

DEAR SlR:-Thc Consolidated Demo-
cratic Republican General Committee OF
the city and county Of New York nave
assessed you $40 towards the legiti-
mate expenses of the Presidential
election.
1t is essential that every person
friendly to Buchanan and Brecken'
ridge, and the success OF Democratic
principles, should pay the full amount
named, as the expenses for printing,
advertising, &c, are very heavy, and
the Committee only ask for such
amount as they estimate will be alb
solutely necessary to deiray those eX-
penses.
The success of our National and
State Tickets in this city, will depend,
in great measure, Oh the alacflty
with which the gentlemen called on
accede to this request.
1t is, therefore, expected that you
will see the evident and urgent neces'
sity Of paying to Mr.. Douglas Taylor,
Nhe authorized agent Of the commit
tee} on or before id3 first Of Noyem-
Der, the sum of twenty dollars, or Of
sending it to him at Tammany Hall,
by the date mentioned.
Respectfully,

LOOK. OUT


Let all Americans be upon Their
guard in reference TO false rumors
about the prospects Of Mr.. Fillmore.
1t is hardly possible to predict in what
way the enemies of our party will
bring about their final effort to defeat
us. Our duty is now to guard the bal.
lot box, and distrust every ru,nor that
we hear circulating between now and
next Tuesday. Every Islander has
been invented that could possibly gain
the least degree of credit. We may
rest assured that if there is anything
true that is preiudicial to our party, it
has been hunted up long since. What
false reports to be started now we can
not even guess at. But there will be
something. Let us believe nothing
that we hear. The opposition has al
ways tried TO make the improssioAhat
Mr.. Fillmore had been withdrawn, but
it is false. Look out for ballot box
frauds in every shape, Let all Amer
leans be on their guard. Vote for Mr..
Fillmore, and our triumph is sure as
anything in the future. Our cause de-
mands Of every one Of us to do his duty.
This Will be Or last issue before
The election, and we have now to say
to all conservative men, who think
more Of their country than their party,
to weigh we'll the Importance Of their
duty at the ballot box. Let no one re-
main at home on the day of the cleo
ton who can get to the polls, All the
ends of our country tell Us that it is in
danger. Faction is fast dissolying the
political ahintcs which hold US tOgeth-
er. This being the case, all patriots,
who are not blinded by prejudice and
misguided by selfish leaders, will de-
libcrately act upon the trying occasion.
We tell you, candid reader, that it
is madness to deceive YOURSELF You
cannot. with importantly, say to your
SELF that Mr.. Fillmore will not make
good Chief Magistrate. His associ-
alton in Eastern countries, where he
had an opportunity OF contrasting the
happiness of our citizens and prosper
ity of our country with the groaning
monarchies Of Europe, surely cannot
lessen his love for American institu-
tons. lie tells you that he has seen
monarchs and monarchica Oh the 9TH
nr side Of the Atlantic, and that he saw
but TO dcspisa and pity them. We do
not expect to influence decided parti-
sans by these remarks, but there are
many men in our county who have the
good Of the country at heart, and are
willing to be guided by that high con
sidcration. They know that Mr.. f. is
a good man and patriot, and, left TO
their own convictions. they will sup
port him. Let such men remember
that party spirit is a calumnatOry evil,
whose serpent tongue, dripping with
,,lc venom OF Islander, cannot be trust
Cd; an shall such Islander be al
lowed TO defame one of the best men
in our natiOn?-or will willing ears be
