nidiculous Ga,connde.

In a speech in Columbia, few days since, the
Hon Preston s. Brooks abiding to the event Of the
election OF Fremont gave it as his opinion that the
South "should march 10 Washington The 4h of
March nezt, seize the archives and Treasury Of the
Gouern,sent, aud leave the rest to God"
A writer in the Richmond Enquirer, in respose
to the enquiry whether there will be a call Of the
Virginia Legislature, remarks:
"However il might be under ordinary circum~
stances, take it for granted that in Fremont
is elected the Legislature will be at once convoked,
and that their very first act viii be ian act making
the retaining or acceptance OF Office under the
General Government, after the 4th OF March next,
a msdemeanor," punishable by fne Of not less
than five hundred nor more than FIVE thousand dol.

than four years nor more than eight years.

Others can only say that If with my vie VS. were
TO take or hold Office under Col. Fremont, should
deem myself lost beyond recall TO every impulse OF

Strange as it may seem, both Brooks and this
writer will support Buchanan, whose squatter sove
regniy principles equally destructive Of South~
rights in the Territories as Fremonts Wilmot Proc

try. The Wilmot Proviso will do it work quietly,
while Buchanan's squatter sovereignty viii accom-

accompanied with agitation and probably bloodshed
as is the case now IN Kansas. Yet Ihe supporters
of Buchanan affect to be the only true friends Of
the South, notwithstanding they are now adVoest~

The Expected Comet.

As it has been announced in the news papers that
a celebrated comet the same that it is said caused
the abduction of Charles V, Emperor of Ger
many in 1856, may be expected to appear this year,
it may be interesting to your readers to give the
following extract concerning it, from Parker's Nat
ural Philosophy, page $40. These interesting de-
tails are given by Babinet, an eminent French As
tronomer, and are translated from the Courier dcS
Eats Ut,is, French paper published in New York.
1t will be seen that the revised calculations of ~
BONNIE fix the appearance of the comet In august
1885, Nth uncertainty Of tOO gears, less
so that it may be expected from 1856 to 1860,
"Ths comet is one of the grandest of which his
torians make mention. Its period of revolution is
about three hundred years. 1t was seen in lO4 392,
6S3, 975, 1864 and 1856. Astronomers agreed in
predicting its return in 1913. Already the obser-
Vatores began to be alarmed for the fate of their
beautiful wandering star, when learned calcula tor
of Middebourg, N. BONNIE, treasured the astro-
nomical world of the existence of the venerable
and magnificent comet.
Dsquieted as all other astronomers were, by the
non arrival Of the comet at the expected time, NJ.
BONNIE, aided by the preparatory labOrs Of Mr..
Hind, has revised all the calculations and estimated
for three hundred years of revolution. The result
of this patient labor gives the arrival Of the comet
10 August 1903, with an uncertainty Of two years,
more or less; so that from $50 to 1860, We may
expect the great comet which was the cause Of the
abduction of the Emperor Charles v, in 1866.
1t is known that, partakibg of the general super
stition which interpreted the appearance of comet
the forerunner Of some fatal event. Charles V.
believed that this comet addressed its menaces
particularly to him. as holding the first rank among
sovereigns. The great, and once wise, but now
wearied and shattered monarch, had been for some
time the victim Of cruel reverses. There were
threatening indications in the POLITICAL if not in the
physical horizon, Of still greater tempest to come.
He left TO cry in despair, fortune abandons old
men" The appearance of the blazing star seemed
to him to be an adnontion from heaven that he
must to be sovereign, if he would avoid a
fatality from which one without authority would be
spared. 1t iSsknown that the Emperor survived
his abdicaton but little more thsn two years."

Ohio.

The Americans of Ohio are working gal
lantly and enthusiastically. Hon. Hum
phrey Marshall, of KY, made second
speech at Cincinnati on the Sd inst, at
night. The Times says of the meeting on
the occasion:
1t is an admitted fact that the FILLMORE
meeting of last night was the largest that has
been held by any party, in this city, for sever
al years. 1t exceeded in numbers and enthusi-
Rsm even the expectations of the most ardent
friends of the American cause. The people
came from almost every direction, sngly, in
squads, and in professions. Line after line,
they poured into the open space with banners,
flags, transparences, and bands of music Shout
after shout went up in every direction for
FILLMORE, DONELSON AND THE
UNIONp"
We repeat it, THE PEOPLE were in motion.
and TO those who fancied that there was No
longer an American party, it must have been
an undeniable evidence that they were mista-
ken. Mr. Marshall's speech was all it should
have been, and spoke forth that true American
feeling that exists in all tae rank and file of the
American party.
Even the opposition papers admit that
the meeting was large. There is to be a
grand demonstration Wednesday, at Col.
umbus, the day on which the State Con.
vention assemblies to nominate a State tick.
ct. Mass meetings are also to be held all
over the State.

JACKSON and Mr. CLAY have to do 18th Mr.. FILL
hoREs politics. will take its question into con-
sderstion.- Union and American
No sir, you never will take our questions
into consideration, and your answer shows
that you have no such intention; and your
declaration that you are ''rcady to answer
questions which are pertinent to the times
and its issues" is all sham. We will not
undertake to show that "the opinions of
Gen. Jackson and Mr.. Clay have" anything
'to do with Mr.. FiIlmore's politics." for
every child knows that this offer of yours
is equivalent to direct refusal to answer
our questions Our questions have nothing
TO do sOth Mr.. FElnorss politics, but they
have something to do with the CHARACTER
OF JAMES BUCHANAN, your candidate for the
Presidency. Mr. Buchanan is before the
people as a candidate for the highest Office
in our government. The principles upon
which he acts as politician, his past polit-
ical history, and his character as an honest
and sincere and plain dealing man, are all
in issue before the people, and they want to
know how far, in these times of danger,
they can trust him as a man of honor and
veracity. A great and horrible wrong was
done to Mr. Clay to his irreparable injury
in his lifetime, and the chief actors in that
wrong were Gen. jackson and Mr.. Buch-
anan.
OF these two, which is to wear the
blame? The people want to know-they
want to acquit Buchanan, or to condemn
him; the issue is before them and they must
give verdict. And in this view we repeat
our question
Did Gen. Jackson have any grounds to
believe there was any understanding be-
tween Mr.. Adams and Mr.. Clay about the
Presidency and the Secretaryship of State?
And if so, what were the grounds Of his
belief?

BROOKLYN, n. Y, Aug 25.
GENTLEMEN Having for the past three weeks
been on tour through this New York; State now
that am home again, cannot refrain from writing
you TO the prospects Of the several Presidential
candidates. / have attended many mass meetings
Of both the Fillmore and Fremont parties in ell
parts Of the State. In the interior, away from the
Cities it is admitted by the most intelligent men in
ALL parties, that Mr. Fillmore has been gainn z
largely within the past six weeks. The mass meet
ings of his friends have been numerous and attend
ed by immense numbers. The enthusiasm is in
tense all over the State. The Fremont men are
working hard and make a great noise, but the re-
suits are generally disheartening. Buchanan il
nowhere" in the country. Old lizard Shells" of
many years standing out are for Fillmore as the only
conservative Union candidate running. confess to
much establishment at the demons trations for our
candidates in certain localities. | have been a con.
slant reader of the New York Tribune, and in max
ing estimates have given certain counties to Free
mont, having been guided, 10 a measure, by that
"truthlu" sheet. But, when visited these coun-
ties aud the spirit that was manifested by our
friends, the Republicans told me, "Oh, this is the
hotsbed oi Fimoreism." Well, have found these
''bot-beds" as thick as snow flakes. And so il Is
all over the State. tell you that the State of New
York is JUST AS SOAK FOR WILLARD FILLMORE as
that the election takes place ia November, and il
the South is true 10 ITSELF he will be the next Presi
dent
Buchanan is entirely out of the question; his
strength is gone completely, when you get away
from custo n houses aud post-ofhces.
We expect Kentucky viii be true. Your last
State election threw damper upon our hopes, but
as the explanations Of that result come along, We
gather fresh strength. tbink il safe TO say that
Fremont Is losing from 500 70 500 votes per week
