because the Kuow Nothlngs are ruuning tick
ct III Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts
Vermont Pennsylvania, Ohio, lAd.ana and lilr
mons. Nobody" it says, ''imagines that ont
OF them can be elected; that tue Fillmore ticket
in any OF the doubtful States, except New York
aud possibly New Jersey, can come out evel
second best The ohy possible et1ect OF run
ming Fillmore tickets III these States is to draw
| on votes enough that would otherwise be- cas-
for Fremont, to secure the electors for Buchaa-
an. This is the result for which Messrs. DAVE
Paul Brown, VIM. Hastead, Austin, BALDWIN y

like Rufus Choatc Fletcher Webster and Jos
