WHOLE NO. 565.


In regard 70 the charges against Mr.. TiIm0re
which related to his views and opinions of pub
lic policy, his friends have deemed Il best TO e
permit them to be rcfuted, as they have been
most amply and triumphantly, by the record Of
his model administration; by his own bold, frank, 4
and manly speeches which the people have every "
where read with admiration and delight. aud by Il
his own pure, unsullied reputation and spotiess
character. OF these the people themselves haA
the means Of forming an accurate judgment, and
to that judgment both he and bis fnends have
been at all tlmes and are now ready to bow With
respectful enthusiastically ask no appeal 10 any .

But the arts and falsehoods which have been
resorted to by tho two sectional parties of the
country to weaken Mr.. Fillmore by inducing tho I,
belief that he was without strength elsewhere than
inIthe place where the hlsehood was told the peo-
pie have not been 80 well able to understand
They have beard these assertions generally with
surprise and incrcdulity, though the frequency Of
their repetition the con6dent tone in which thsyg
we're asserted, tho variety Of forms in which thor
have been madeto appear, and, above ~ the per.
feet concurrence Of Republicans and DsmocraAs ~
in these misrepresentation and the readiness With
which the one sustained the others Rbricaxicp, -
have made some impression upon the public mind.
or at least upon the minds ofsuc, consult their
fears rather than rely upon the goodness Of their
cause. -srI grnNag rnnkF
y Upon the eve of our adjournment, these and sim-
liar assertions are again renewed, with view no
doubt Of sowing the seeds, Of alienation, and dis
trust between our friends in different sections Of
the Unich, and these wicked and false statements
are sent o-the country by railroad, bytelegrapb,
and by missionaries and emissaries with zeal and
apparent confidence worthicr Of a better cause,
aud the assertion is now added that Mr.. Fillmore
will be now withdrawn th AafAas'fa efi"maAsa
In addressing you now, we wish defnitely to 81
contradict these untrue reports, and correct - far
as we can the false impression to which they havo
given rise, and thus to strip our enemies OF their
most favorite and nearly only remaining means Of
warfare. eeisqca 43aa4et ea} An If nfSls& 81 Ssh.
+ None Of these charges and insinuations are true.
We speak to all scctions Of our common county
in saying 80. The friends OF ohr candidates both
| North and South, are standing firmly by their
colors and by their men, and viii do so until the
contest is decidedi in November. They do so both
from choice and from duty. They choose IL, DO.
cause their men stand on the only truly ma tional
platform, as broad as the entire Union, aud sx.a
actly co-extensive with the constitution, recog-r
nisng the rights of the States on the one hand
and of the Federal Government on the other, and
holding each sovereign within its proper sphere
and their duty requires that these geographical,
these sectional parties, both Republican and DEM
ocratic, SO called, shall be driven from the field.
Whoever aids either, aids one section Of COM
mon country against another. hslit3na ,b4eig4e
We can say to our friends in all sections that
from henceforth until election In November, they
should work in good heart and spirits that stories
Of lukewarmness and abandonment Of our candi.e
dates must be based upon something in the, future
different from the past to DO true; that North
and South the friends Of our candidates are true
as wel-tempercd steel, and are working with more
heart, zeal, and confidence a. the canvass tpnos
crosses. The hearts of true national men, North
and South, beat in unison with each other, aud
their hands are being vigorously applied to com,
mon labor, and for common resut !; and there H.
not the least reason, in any section, for distrust
of friends in any other. Let not the enemy reap
any fruits from the insidous policy pursued by
them. We say to you that 1t appears to us from
this point of observation, that IL al who in their
hearts prefer Millard Fillmore for President shah
vote for him, he will be tri,l,nphantly elected. y
| We do not pretend to direct, govern or control
the movement in favor Of the American cause.
That is matter solely in the hands Of the psople
at large. II is theirs; they originated it, We boz
heve our candidates, however, infinitely stronger
amongst the people than among politicians who
happen at this time to be In power or strugglinE
TO acquire il. Let their friends be of good cheer.
Let them do their duty, and they will be aston
ished at .heir great strength at the polls. Let
each man go to work and confde in hss Jtiemds
elsewhere, and the pictory Is snrsi No cunninsiy.
! devised stories should induce them for ono mo-
| ment to think Of taking sides between the candi
dates of those dangerous sectional organizations
which are now struggling to concentrate the North
against the South, or the South against the North
They should, and will, both be oysrthrown.. The
! country requires repose and demands safety. The
friends of FILLMORE and DoSRLsoE are the friends
of the UNION. They have the power to elect them,
and thus strengthen the bonds of that friendship
and confidence between the North and the South
which in other days added such power and glory
to the Republic. fagHda aaff ,ikl }g yg}f0a ~
4 Let us now pledge ourselves each to the other
i that EVERY MAN WILL DO HIS DUTY to our candi-
dates and our cause and you may rely upon Il the
country viii be saved from tho dangers that en-
compass it. and restored to the Quiet and coQ&
dence which blessed il at ths close Of Mr.. FilL
more's administration. q ~
