Polk was elected.
We have the highest authority for asserting
that Mr.. Clay never forgave Mr.. Buchanan for
this last outrage. For his completely in the bar

may be called formidable. His nomination simply

Mr.. FilImore,s Acceptance.

We have laid before the readers Of the Virgin
ian the able and patriotic letter of Mr.. Fillmore
accounting the nomination Of the American party
for the Presidency of the u. States. We agree
with the National American. that Ills production
that will be read with pride and pleasure not only
by every member of the National American party
In the Union, but BY many other true patriots.

purity which marked the first years of its exs-
tence," and who participate in the desire Of our
distinguished candidate, 80 quiet that alarming
sectional agitation. which, while IL delights the
Monarchis,s Of Europe, causes every true friend
of our country to mourn II is the letter OF
patriot and a statesman,
.wbo for his country feels alone
And loves her veal beyond his own"
With natural and becoming pride. MIR. Fillmore
refers 10 his past services in the Administration
of the Government by which he extorted praise
even from his most determined political oppo'
nsnis. and points to those services as the expo
nent Of the future" Contrasting that pure econ
omioal. and conservative Administration, with
the Democratic misrule which succeeded it, the
people of the United States who abhor cor
ruption, condemn extravaganoe, aud deprecate
sectional agitation, should have little hesitation
in pronouncng between return TO the Fillmore
policy, and continuance in power of the party
which endorses all the crimes and follies OF Mr..
Pierces regime, whilst ii proposes new schemes
offilibustering and proagacy.
1t will be seen that Mr. Fillmore, conceiving
that the American party alone possesses tho
power to rebuke this violent aud disastrous ngi-
taiion, and to restore harmony TO the country by
its own example of moderation and forbenrance--
freely adopts its great leading principles ms AN
nounoed in the recent declaration ut the Nation
al Council at Philadelphia. With their cand-
dates and principles now fairly before the Amer
lean people, the members of the great American
party have but to unite in vigorous and harmoni-
Gus action to secure n great and glorious victory
