The Prospect is Cheering.

York Times on one hand, and the Washington
Union and Richmond Enquirer on the other,
aided by the various other Republican and
ti-American presses throughout the country,
are endeavoring to create the belief that the
American candidates have no strength either
North or South, we are daily receiving the
most cheering accounts even from sections of
the country whence little has been expected in
aid of the American Reformation. To say mo-
thing of the rapid progress of Americanism in
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and several
smaller States at the North, and of its equally
rapid progress in Virginia, North Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Tennessee, Ken
lucky, and other States, South and West we
have assurances that in Texas and Missouri
the American candidates will beat the anti
Americans thousands of votes, in the coming
contest. A letter from an intelligent corre-
spondent in central Missouri speaks as follows,
viz: ts 1sfEE
"As to Americanism in Missouri, the prospects
are indeed cheering beyond the most sanguine
hopes Of its most ardent supporters a few months
| since. Old Wings and Democrats are vieing with
eacn OJncr In advancing tnl5 last nope OF amer
| lean liberty. Our recent defeat in st. Louis by q
4 combination Of Republicans, and foreign Demo.
Gratis, will not check the onward progress of those
undying principles which under-le and form the
basis Of all that is truly national in American pol
/ itics. Our FILLMORE AND DoSELsoS UNION ban
ner which Is now, in this State, nobly floating
in the breeze, ably and eloquently defended by
Colonel Switzler, Major Rollins, General Ranney,
Messrs Anderson, Ewing, and others, WILL come

thousand majority inscribed upon its ample folds.
This the American party Of Missouri have re-
solved to accomplish, and IL SHALL BE RECORDED
| as a FIXED YACTw ~ s "a.
| In a like manner, correspondent Of st.
| Louis assures us, that the recent triumph Of
the foreign and Republican fusion in that city
| is no index whatever to the future--that on
| tho contrary, that result has aroused the Amer
can feeling throughout the State, and that our
| friends there entertain no doubt whatever Of
gaining brilliant victory in Missouri next No
vember. The enemies of American principles
have no cause to rejoice in the recent success
of the anti American fusion party in st. Louis,
when it is remembered that by the Census Of
1860 that city had ss,397 foreign population,
against 36,b29 native born, and that at this
present time the majority Of foreigners over
natives there cannot be less than 10000 and
may probably range as high as $4,000. Wheu
it is also remembered that there is a large Ben
tonian, alias Republican vote in that city, car
it be regarded as surprising, that the fusion
party there, composed of Pierce-men, Benton
men, Seward-men, foreigners, and American
demagogues, should triumph over American
doctrines To this complexion it will comea
last in every city and county in the United
States, unless the American party shall prevail
in the approaching Presidential contest
From Seguin, Texas, we have just received
letter from a truthful and wellinformed cor
respondent who says: Fillmore, Donelson
and the American platform are popular here
and we shall undoubtedly carry them in tri
umph through Texas next fall" These are
only specimens Of the letters we are daily re-
ceiying, not only from Texas, but from the
whole South and West We are pleased tc
add that our subscriptions from all parts of the
country are rapidly increasing, which fact fur.
nishes additional proof of the onward progress
of American principles. .H.s
EWe now entertain not the slightest doub,
that the American candidates viii be most tri-
umphantly elected il the friends Of American
principles make the proper exertion to spread
light and information broadcast over the land
1t is true, as claimed by the larger representa-
tive Of the administration here, in bis issue OF
to-day, under the head of "the rising tide OF
Democracy" that this tide has swept over ST.
Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, and Cleveland T.
Is It strange, we ask again, that those cities,
in which foreigners have majority Of the
population, should elect fusion candidates.,
when in addition TO the foreign vote, there arc
added hundreds and thousands Of American
born voters Of different political compilations,
