FROM MISSISSIPPI AND LOUISIANA.

The following extract ofa letter from one OF the
best informed men in the State of Mississippi, long
a member of Congress. 1t very clearly indicates
the position the South will take should Fremont be
elected
.In Mississippi there will be contest. Mr.. Buc-
hanan occupies just now his proudest position. be-
ieve sincerely, that bat for the confidence we have
in his election and the faith have in his hrmncss,
our people would be for r rupture Tomorrow. We
are sick aud dsgusted with the fanatics, and would
willingly build uow and forever, barrier between
them aud ourselves But We PIT al actton ,catA tac
hOps that Buchanan may The Republic. Ii his

short of Proyiderial inserposon will preserve the
Union. Ii will go and tha without fault on our part
go as the last mans OF preserving that which alone
is dearer TO Us than the CniOnour rights aud lnstu

There is neither doubt or danger about the vote

All analysis Of this vote shows that of the ll2 yeas
73 were from the free States and 80 from the South
OF the T3 nays, IS were from the free and IL from
the slave States.
The two votes taken together prove that II was 'ne

legislation of 1854 settlement OF Tue slavery fu'.

WA dsta.teful to the Northern know-NoiIinSs.-
They would no, abide by that legislation, and hence
they repealed the platform which pledged them 1"
such course. The repeal was accepted oy most OF

"FlLLMORE STOCK RISING"

ilsiMoRE SlDClL RlSlNG.
The IIhiS daily cxpends half column on an ave-
rage in am attempt 10 establish this very absurd pro-
position II "F'imore stock is really rising, Why
be pcrpetuaiy trying to prove the fact!
The Ilhtg's argument answers exactly to the pre-
posierous character of s proposition. 1t is this
Fillmore will carr the State of New York, which,
with the entire vote Of the South, Will elect him
Wherefore, contends the Wig, the Democracy Of
the South should abandon Buchanan and support
Fillmore. lnaflnuch a. the Democracy have no dea
of deserving their candidate for the nominee Of
Know y Nothingism VIZ cannot see the force OF the
Wings argument.
But, the Wing Assumes what we utterly deny, viz:
that Fillmore will get the vote of New York. We
confidently claim the Empire State for Buchanan.
Fremont will get the next largest popular vote.
Concedc, however, for arguments sake, that Fill
more will cauy New York: does that insure his sue
cess I Certainly not unless he receives the entire
vote OF the South. Now the Democracy hold undis-
puted sway in every Southern State. But, says the
Wig, the South should for Fillmore, for the
reason that he can carry New York. In other words
the Ithtg contends that one State should trump six
teen States. We argue differently. We say, what
impartial man will deny that Buchanan will carry
the entire South, and We ci8m that Fimore's
friends in New York should support Buchanan, nnd
thus insure the election Of conservative President
aud the ascendancy Of patriotic party. That's me
argument.

position was submitted to strike ont the June plat
form containing the 18th section, and that that propo-

that only zen delegates representing slavehoIdng
