oh, no. Of course not There is no earthly
chance for Mr. Fillmore 20 carry "sngle county in

The thing, therefore, is fixed Not single coun-

county in Virginia. That is, Augusta, Louioun and
Richmond city all going to vote for the Cincinna-

The public may see from such silly bra-gadocio as
this, that confidence be placed in Democratic
estimates of the campaign. None in the world
What man, in his senses believes that Fillmore will
not carry "siHgle county" in the South Docs
the Enquirer believe it, II not, why put forth

the carriage was entirely deserted the horses rushed
onward and were stopped by person who ran out and
rezed the rens as they passing the Bucks County

When stopped they covered with foam, owing to

nj the bridges, portion
of the route they took was than ordinarily dan

made The sufferers placed under the care OF Dr.
Mccoy. who promptly rendered the necessary aid.
Mr. Kesser was removed to his residence in this city
on Monday afternoon and Mr.. Doyle, who is the most
seriously injured, is doing we'll as could be expected
