ofi Maryland, in his recent letter, makes
very wry face at Mr. Buchanan. He says:
q readily admit that ! do not like the
Ostend paper. and do not approve certain
resolutions adopted BY the Cincinnati Con
yention. notwithstanding the unanimous OPP
position Of the Virginia and Maryland Dele
gates, and believe Of Others; and il he
should adopt the aggressive policy supposed
TO be prescribed by that paper and ..lhe res
olutions, should be as ready aud as earnest
IN my opposition TO him as any one"
That is. (says an exchange paper) if he
believed Mr.. Buchanan meant What lie said
ia the 0steud Manifesto, and was speaking
the truth ia heartily approving The Cincin-
natl Platform, he would not vote for him,
even for the sake OF defeating Fremont.
This is rather remarkable way Of overcoming
n difficulty. Il is only on the supposition
that Mr. Buchanan is a political trickster, and
that he will violate his Solemn pledges, that
Senator Ptarce can consent 70 support him.
