Daily American organ. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1856, 1856-10-23


On Tuesday evening there was an immense
gathering Of the Wings Of New York city on Union
Square. Hon. A. Q. Kingsland, e1-Mayor Of the
city, presided, assisted by Henry Grnnell, II. II.
Day, J. p. Phoenix, James Brooks, and other dis
tnguished friends and supporters of Fillmore and
Donelson.
The assembled thousands were addressed by
Hon. A. h. Fl. Stuart, Of Virginia, David Paul
Brown, Of Pennsylvania, Colonel Coleman, of Ten
nessee, n. o. Perrin, Of New York, and DIR.
Schnebly, Of Maryland.
All the New York papers concur in Pronouncing
this meeting as one Of the largest Of the season.
Our private letters from New York assure us
that the American party there is thoroughly or
ganized, and fully aroused TO the Importance OF
the approaching contest. The leaders Of the Dem.
ocratic and Republican parties have both become
alarmed, and, through their committees, have
issued piteous addresses to their followers.
We can assure our friends at the South that
they need have no apprehensons about New
York. In addition 10 an American vote Of 1877 900,
there are at least $4,000 old-line Wings who win
vote for Fillmore and Donelson. This will secure
the State for the American candidates beyond a
peradventure, and prevent the possibility Of the
election Of Buchanan or Fremont.

WHAT THEY DO SAY.--We learn it upon the best
authority that Thnrlow Weed, since the result in
Pennsylvania has become definitely known, has
said that, 80 far as Fremont was concerned, the
Presidential question was already decided that
Pennsylvania and Indiana being against him, the
contest now lay between Fillmore and Buchanan.
Without any doubt these are Mr.. Weeds views,
as well as those of the Fremont leaders generally.
Similar views have been expressed by the editors
Of the Journal, as well as by prominent Republi-
cans we could name.
And yet these dishonest leaders are shouting
to their followers, and holding out assurances as
though they had but tot put forth their hand to
secure the victory. Fremont being out of the
question, their only motive now is hatred to Fill
more, to crafty which they do not hesitate to be-
come the allies of Buchanan, Pierce, Douglas,
& Co. III
Honest Republicans will you follow Weed &
Co. over to the camp of the enemy Alb. States
