Mr.. Haven. Of Buffalo, the law part.
ner Of MIR. Fillmore, was expected 70 oe
the candidate Of the American Oroer IN
hi. district for a seat in Congress. We
have it from unquesuonable authority
that, on servey oil the political fleid, nc
declines to enter it, and will not consent
to be nominated. /
The fac, is an exceedingly significant
one. The man to whom, if Mr.. Fillmore
had any essential popularity in the place |
OF his residence, that popularity would
attach itself in the largest measure, with
draws from the contest for which he was
abou, TO buckle on his armor, and retil-
.es to figh, BY the side OF his friend. IL
is fair TO infer that Mr.. Fillmore begins
to despair Of bis own election.
| Ba, this is the only one Of the signs
which point to the same conclusion. Mr..
George d. Gray. of Virginia, a leading
member Of his party, delegate to the
famous Winchester Convention, AID
Presiden, OF the Fillmore and Donelson
Club Of Culpper county has resigned that
Office and published letter in the Rich
mond Enquire, in which he declares that
Fillmore carnot be elect d and that he
gives his supper, 10 Buchanan. Mr..
Ephraim Marsh. of New Jersey, Presl-
den, of the very convention which noml-
mated Mr.. Fillmore for the Presidency
has published another letter, in which he
declairs that Fillmore has no chance oil
an election, and ,ha, he shall do oil his
power to elect Fremont, Mr. Gray is
| In favor oil the extension OF slavery, and
= therefore he support. Buchanan. Mr.
2 Marsh is hostile TO the extension oil sla'
: very, and therefore he vii! vote for Ere
$ mont. Mr.. Gray says: There is not .
/, shadow Of chance for Mr.. Fillmore
/ election by the people, Mr. MarsE
e shows that the southern friends oil Mr.
;. Fillmore have abandoned his cause, ant
:. given the weight of their influence ant
q their votes for Buchanan.
