We recommea TO the consideration OF
The ftiends OF Mr.. Fillmore, who stlls clease
10 the delusire hope that BY some hoeas
pocps he sill yet be made the Pfessaens o.
he Uaitcd States, the sabjolned statement
81 The Richmond Eramiasr II they Halter
themselves that the Democrats, possessing
he power Is they will should the election
"a into the House. will use il for the cleo
lion Of Mil ard Fillmore. they are gr'eroas-
IL mistak e and have learned the policy OF
that corrupt party to their o~n deception -
That q deep laid scheme has long been ms
surioe BY the Democratic leaders to pre-.
ysns the election Of Mr.. Fillmore, shonio
the matter be referred 10 the House
pretty generally known, bnt What 'nei'
fnschipatons would resul, in wss mol =
sch defined At one tine ililie DOUBT ss-
,s.ed Of their determination TO saerihee M
RurAanan ana make Breckenridge, IS siee
president, bear the burdens OF The ffes'-
deot'a station. The plot nov coaeoeieds
a. deve Hoped beio~, is. TO prevent Mr.. fA''
more, name coming before the horse 81
IN. Ia virtue OF him getting the eiestcrsi
votes Of MARY land OF any other state u
States. By casting portion ofthe electoral
vo.e Ter 4 fourth candidate of their own
eahtical school. By this policy they might
ooasihIy cleo. Buchsssn, while eertalniy
shev veuld secure maR for President al
ter their own hearts The vileness OF 'h's
breach of coincidence is not TO be looked o.
in eeupsrison with the benefits that would
en.rs to the party. We cannot think that
n. FILLMORE men ~ill sell themselves 30
chsssly. They can res, assured thar IN"
double game the Bacbsniers leaders are
e,syiax il no, for the purpose OF making
III. Fillmore President. Amer they shall
have used them, o. the means to Obtain
,hsir wishes, il 10 not their policy, having
everything st command, TO place man IL
power she will distribute among others the
emoiumsnts Of ofsce 80 Necessary to iheir
Organisation. Bu, TO the extract
sConcedinc, for the sake Of Arguments and
for fhst sake only, that Fillmore shall car
~ Naryland-the only State North Oh
Sossh 10 which his party makes even
senAlspce Of hopeful contest; the eieetora
vote OF Maryland being bot eisA,, the cleo
tors Of any single Bochsnan State having
only sfsx yoies-Georgis, for instance with
Tn veses---msy prevent Fiiimore's name
GETTING before the Hoase by casting her
Doll for say D. 5. Dickinson. For, the
Constitution requiring the House TO choose
from the tA-es who receive the highest vote
in the electoral college. Mr.. Fillmore being
behind Buchsnan. Fremont and Dickinson
would be dropped as fourth rate.
BOT using more violent supposition
and assuming thai Fillmore should by mir
sele receive &c many as sixty electoral
votes; even then his name could not get be-
fore the House For no one prctends that
Mr. Rnchansn's vote 10 The electoral col
lege can be less than les by any possibility
which, IL the Buchanan electors by agree
meni divide il equally between Buchanan
and ssy Dickensoh, viii give each larger
vete thsn FILLMORE, keep Fillmore out Of
the House, and oompel choice by that
BODY between Fremont and ore or the 9TH
er, Buchanan or Dsckensen. What then
becomes Of ell the twlddle and gsbbl.
about the certainty Of Fillmore's election
The hope OF gettiRg his name before The
House-ths only hope on which il ia base
the hope of gambling him into the Presi
aency lis a hope which the Democracy,
they choose. can as easily crush out Sc the.
can tread out the life Of worm"
