And yet in the face of this astonishing revelation of the game of treachery he has played, there are southern men who under the maddening influence of partizan feeling and unconquerable hatred of the democratic party, still persist in supporting him for the Presidency!

FoUR FILLMORE ELECTORS DECLARED FOR FREMoNT.-The bitter portion is being put to the lips of the Fillmore whigs by the Fremont fanatics. Stevens and Johnston have resolved that 1t shall be swallowed. On the State ticket presented to the Fillmore whigs for their votes, there are two avowed slanderers of Fillmore, two a5oltlonists, two active advocates of Ere mont. This is two of the three men on that ticket, to say nothing of Cochran, the third and last, whose hostility to Fillmore is notorious. But this is not al The electoral Fillmore ticket is made up to cheat the Fillmore whigs; and to prove it four men on that ticket viz Duffield, Q. N.

In the British Islands at last accounts the weather was favorable and the crop looked well. In France there is some fear of short crop, but any deficiency will be largely suppl- ed from the countries bordering on the Mediter- ranean, and perhaps in some measure from Russia In Russia the crops are reported as promising well.
