Kentucky Election.

The Louisville Journal Of August 9th thus refers
to the election in that State:
"We are called upon to chronicle an unparal-
leled victory Of the American party in the city and
county election yesterday. The result, 60 far as
heard from, shows gain upon the American ma
jorty last year of fUs hundred and nineteen yotes,
There was by no means full American vote
brought out either in the city or in the county.
Early in the day il was ascertaned that the Amer
lean ticket was SO far ahead that our opponents
would never be able to catch up, and there was no
effort made to bring up a full American vote
81 he gains in the city of Louisville and county
of Jefferson are sufficient to indicate gain of one
thousand votes for Fillmore and Donelson over the
American majority last year.
email the districts heard from, wherever party
contest has been made there have been large gains
for the American ticket In many portions of the
State there was no party contest.
" We can give every assurance to our friends
throughout the whole Union that Kentucky is all
right for Fillmore and Donelson.

John M. Bolts in the Field.

The Hon. John NJ. Botts of Virginia, ia working
manfully for Fillmore and Donelson. Having been
invited to attend the recent monster demonstration
in Brooklyn, New York, he sent the committee OF
invitation the following cheering note:
"RIcHMoND, July %, 1866.
"DEAR Sir: Yours of the 18th arrived during
my absence from home, and did not reach me in
time even to give you suitable reply to your in
vitation to address the mass meeting in Brooklyn
on Thursday evening next. received from por-
ton Of the people Of Brooklyn last winter, such a
manifestation Of respect and confidence as laid me
under everlasting obligations to them, and it would
give me unfeigned qualification to comply with any
demand they might make upon my time or SER
vices, where compliance would be possible, but
in this case it woHd be entirely out of my power.
shall have as much to do at home as | can well
attend to- for we mean to go into the fight in earn-
est. think the Wing and American parties in
this State are pretty thoroughly united upon Mr..
Fillmore and If we can bring the entire vote Of
these two parties to the polls in November, there
cannot be doubt Of our carrying the State triuin
phanty. Whether we do carry it or not, depends
in a very large degree upon what may at that time
appear to be the prospects of Mr. Fillmore in the
Northern States 1t, therefore, becomes his friends
throughout the North to exert all their energies
to place him in position that will lead his friends
in the South to entertain strong hopes of his uti
mate success. That done, we shall make gallant
fight for him. not only in Virginia, but throughout
the Southern States.
"With every wish for the success of our cause,
and what kno,c to be the true cause of the Union
and the Constitution, am, respectfully, your ooe.

Hon. A. X. MARSHALL and III. w. Davis.

The speeches Of these two distinguished Amer
lean members Of the present Congress, delivered
in the Iouss Of Representatives last night, were
by far the most brilliant oratorcal efforts we have
had the pleasure Of listening to during the session
Of the present Congress.
The Hon A. X. Marshall exposed the sophistry
Of the Republican war-cry--" Slavery is sectional,
and freedom national compared the American
and Democratic platforms and dcduced from this
comparison the conclusions that the American
platform was national and conservative, and that
| the Democratic was sectional and national. He
reviewed the prospects of the Presidential candi-
dates, and gave it as his deliberate opinion that
Willard Fillmore would be the successful candidate.
Mr Marshall claimed to be an American Demo-
Graf, representing the true Democratic principles.
He was followed by the Hon. Henry Winter
Davis, in one of the most eloquent and powerful
speeches we ever heard. He arraigned the sec
tional Democratic party, and exposed its evil and
disunion tendencies. He said the success of our
government, the perpetuity of our institutions, de-
manded the absolute destruction of the Democratic
party, and it was that which the North sought to
destroy. He reviewed the courae Of this party in
regard to the Missouri Compromise, and quoted
against its present positions the records of Polk,
Monroe Douglas, and others
Mr.. Davis pronounced an eloquent eulogium upon
Mr. Fillmore, and appealed to the North and South
to rally around and stand by the man who had, in
in the time of its direst trouble, given peace and
repose to the country and quelled the fell spirit of
dsunion North and South. lie denounced the
disunionists, and rdculed the idea that there
could be a peaceable disunion. Mr.. d. pledged
Maryland for Fillmore by triumphant majority.
We hope these two speeches will be spread be-
fore the American people. Let every American
paper throughout the land lay them before their
readers .. =.

MI. CLAYTON.

Ine OHLoH states tnaL senator Dayafu, OF Deia'
ware, in speech which he made at Dover, on the
oath ult., announced that his colleague, Hon. John
NJ. Clayton, would under no circumstances support
either Fillmore or Fremont for the Presidency and
that the announcement was made with the entire
approval of Mr.. Clayton.
Mr.. Clayton, it will be remembered, was one Of
Gen. Taylor's Cabinet. When Mr.. Fillmore sue.
ceeded to the Presidency, the members Of the
Cabinet of Gen. Taylor resigned their places, and
Mr.. Fillmore accepted their designations For this
acceptance Of voluntary offer on their part, these
gentlemen have ever since cherished decided
hostility to Mr.. Fillmore.
We may also state, because ii is historical fact
that previous to the death Of General Taylor, Mr.
Fillmore, then Vice President, was treated in a
very shabby manner by every member of the Cab.
met Ct Gen. Taylor, with the exception of Mr., Col

Presidency, and Gov. Seward persuaded them that
Mr. Fillmore was alec an sspirant for the same of

retired to private life, and the major portion d
them to ignoble obscnrity Under the title of "the
Galphins, their memory is not particularly fragrant
in the nostrils Of the American people
They retired and Fillmore ascended the Presi-
dental chair and 50 administered the government
as to command the admiration of his country and
the world. And now powerful party have again
presented him for tile same office, with the fullest
confidence that his eminent fitness for the station
must ensure his election, in spite of the opposition
of the Galphins, the Filibusers and the Abolition
lists.
The INTELLIGENcER-The Baltimore American
Of this morning has the following allusion to the
National Inteliigencer:
Since the appearance of the letters of Senators
Pearce and Pratt, it has been asserted and reite-
rated IN private circles through the city, that the
I" Ndhondt Intethgencer"-th old conservative
nauonal organ OF the Wing party--would in few
Gays fohoW IN the same track by declaring its pre-
ference 'or Buchanan and Breckenridge. We have
not been abe to ascertain the true character of
this rumor but have confidence that the deem NOR
LITIGATION which such an announcement would give
TO the conservative Wings of MARYLAND and of
the whole Union will be spared them Indeed.
VIC hope to have more pleasing records to make
In the future and the most gratifying Of these
would be the open and able advocacy Of Mr.. Fill
more by our old and esteemed contemporary of
the National Inteliigencer.
We presume the Intciligo,ccr will wait until the
decision Of the National Wing Convention in Sep
tember before IL takes decided ground on the Pres.
idential question.
