by the Democracy Of the North, and that the
South should at once, and cordially, and at the

Mr.. Seddon endorses to the fullest extent the
soundness Of the Northern Democracy on the
Kansas ebraska Bill. Mr.. Seddon makes a
connection and concurrence with the Nebras-
kakansas Bin, the paramount claim to nom.
ination--and upon this gives preference to
General Pierce, and places Mr.. BUCHANAN AZ
his last resort because Of his supposed short
coming on this bill.
The position Of Mr.. BUCHANAN on this oues

the Democratic party measuraby to blame? The
party organization in this State, such as it is,
seems to be merely combination Of very

election to make their names prominent They
are all delegates to Conventions at least, and
few OF them sometimes consent to run as can

with no idea of success. They appear to act
upon the principle that the fewer Democrats
there are here, the fewer competitors there will

most sincerely hope that your efforts and
the efforts of other friends Of that great states
man, James Buchanan, will be carried with
success. The claims Of the Democracy Of
Pennsylvania upon their brethren throughout
the Union, can scarcely be over.estimated.
They fnd a parallel only in the distinguished
services and matchless statesmanship Of their
candidate, impressed with these considerations,
and with the conviction that Mr.. Buchanan's
name, more than that Of any other Democrat,
would unite the Union men Of the country, and
ensure certain and enduring victory, the De-
mocracy ask his nomination by the Cincinnati
Convention.
Washington sentinel., 1856-05-27

The sentiment is universal among the De
mocracy Of this State that Buchanan is the
man and the only man--with him we can carry
the State sure. The political tide is turning
in our State, and setting in with irresistible
force and strengthen favor of our party, and
nothing aids il more than the expectation that
Buchanan is to be our nominee. Prominent

Mr.. Buchanan is the man upon whom the
choice Of the Democratic party should fall as
their candidate for the Presidency---enemie as
well as friends admit his qualifications for the
Office, and no Democrat will doubt his fidelity
to every great principle Of the Democratic
party.
Washington sentinel., 1856-05-27

MY sympathies are with Old Buck, and so
are those of majority Of the Democrats in this
State. In my opinion Buchanan is the only
invincible candidate He is the choice of the
Democracy Of our State. We have made
grand fight here, our troops are in excellent
order, and If he is nominated at Cincinnati
Connecticut will undoubtedly cast her electoral
vote for him.
Washington sentinel., 1856-05-27

Old Buck has really been nominated by the
people. The question is whether that nomina.
ton shall be confirmed, or another shall be
made by politicians. The present position of
our country requires that we should have an
able, consistent, and withal a respectable and
honest man at the helm, and believe that it
will be supplied by Mr.. Buchanan, who will be
nominated and elected.
