WHAT A PATRIoTIo AMERICAN PoL1rro1AN
THINKs.-Chauncey Shafer, Esq.,, formerly
district attorney of New York, has been
much respected and prominent member of the
Amercan party, but has recently given his
support to Fremont and DAYTON. A para
graph recently appeared in the Ithica Citizen
stating that he had returned to the support of
Fillmore and Donelson, because he was con-
Vinced that Fremont was a Catholic. Mr..
Shai1er writes spicy letter in reply to this
roorback.' He says that, as an American.
he is not bound by the action of the Phila,
oeiphla convention, any more than his breth-
zen OF 9dass,achusetts, of Connecticut, and of
every New England State That convention
he says, was not an " American convention y
As far as the North was concerned il was .
silver Gray Wing conventional as far as the
South was concerned, it was convention for
the propagation Of human slavery: and tho
result was the nomination of two men, one of
whom gloEes IN being the owner of hundred
Saves and the other, Mr.. Fillmore) in being
most subseryient instrument of the slave
power. He says:

port of Fillmore and Donelson.' NOR VIII 7 i,

They CAN'T WAIT.-There seems to be quite
little stampede among the Old Hunkers of the
Boston Wing party to get out of the track of the
Peoples movement, and they do not seem to be
very particular where they go. Choate has joined
the BUCCANEERS, and it was supposed, SIS a matter
of course, that Everett, Winthrop, and the rest
of that stripe, would await the action of the
Wing Convention on the Sd Of September, but
the Boston Advertiser learns that paper was in
circulation yesterday, for signatures among the
Wings of that city, and that the names Of Messrs
Edward Everett, Robert C. Winthrop, William
Appleton, George S. Hillard, and Luther v Bell
were appended with others. The signers state
that, before expressing an opinion on the presi
Dental question, they had designed to await the
action of the Wing State Convention to be held
on the Sd of September but finding that their
silence in that respect has been misinterpreted,
they take this occasion to say that they entertain
a decided preference for Mr.. FillmoreI over either
of the other candidates. These are not the ex-
act words of the paper (wh ich we have not SEEM
but they express, we believe, its substance.
The Springfield Republican well says think of
Edward Everett, Robert G. Winthrop, Luther V.
Bell, William Appleton and the historical Wing
party of Massachusetts, playing second fiddle to

MORE PRosoRIPTIoN.-Mr. George Rye Of
Woodstock, Va, who was one of the delegates
to the Philadelphia Convention which nominated
Fremont, has been warned by some of his neigh
bors to quit the State. Mr.. Rye attended the
indignation meeting took the matter very
coolly, and in letter to James Scott Davis, of
Calvin Creek. Lewis county, Kentucky, which is
published in the Tribune, gives the prominent
actors in the affair a most thorough dressing
down. He concludes his letter with the remark
that " everything has been quiet here since, and
we enjoy the farce admirably" Mr. Davis in
communicating this letter to the Tribune, says:
IF the mob attempt to carry out their law
less resolutions, they. will find a much larger
number of friends of free discussion than
they expect. They will not make the attempt.
Western Virginia feels the tyrannous rule of
that portion east of the Blue Ridge, and in
wardly rejoice when one is found bold enough
to cry out against it,

The MAN WHO TAKES UP DESPERATE CASES
At late anti.slavery meeting in Providence Rev
Mr.. Hggnson Of this city, told the following
good story, illustrating Mr.. Choates recent cor
respondenee with the Wings OF Name
AT Hewburyport, there was once bad man,
who had been guilty Of numerous crimes, but who
had always the good luck 10 escape from the
hands Of justice Finally he was taken and lock.
ed up in jail. The Constable who arrested him
was asked by some Of the citizens II his prisoner
seemed in good spirits.
Wen, rather guess not said the Constable,
= ne appears 10 be pretty much down.
But don't you think said another, that he
expects 70 get OF, now, as he always has done >
NO. said the Constable, think he has not
much nope now-indeed, may say that he Is in
qlter aespav, for, 10 my certain knowledge, he
mas openeda correspondence With Rufus Choatc.'"
After the applause with which the story was
received had subsidized, the speaker remarked that
this unfortunate person was now in the STATE
Prison, and he thought from that circumstance
that he had not been benefited By l,ls correso,pa
enoe with Mr.. Choaie any more than the Demo.
cratic party was likely to be by the more recent
correspondence Of that distinguished politician.

The RUMoRED FIGHT IN KANzAs.--We pub

rumors in reference to the existing state of affairs
in Kanzas.
1t is perhaps needless for us to say, that though
these rumors may be true, there is reason to be-
heye that they are not 1t is not at all probable
that party of Free State men would have at
tackled the town Of Franklin, or that, having
done so, it would have taken four hours for two
hundred Free State men to drive off twenty Mis-
sourians.
1t is most probable that the border ruffans have
been having free fight among themselves, and a
letter received in this city, yesterday, from Rev
Mr.. Parsons, who was with the Massachusetts
emigrants on the 18th, at ordinyille, Iowa, would
seem to confirm this view Of the matter The
letter says, "We have a rumor of battle in
Missouri, among the border rufRans themselves,
in which Is were killed"
