FRISCO I.ninIIng.

We have had the pleasure of examining the
beautiful painting in fresco executed by Mr..
Charles Guaita at the residence of Dr. Warne,
in this city, aud although not competent to
pass a critical opinion upon the merits of the
work as specimen of art We think Mr.. Guata
has achieved great triumph in lis conception
and execution. To the most classical designs,
which alone prove the genius of Mr.. Guaita
are united beautiful and just proportions
showing with what correct taste the skillfu
hand of the accomplished artist has executed
his conceptions.
But we forbear 10 speak Of this work AT
length, our object st present being simply 10
call the attention of the admirers Of the beau
tiful in art TO il. Mr.. Guaita will take pleas.
ure in exhibiting the saloon during the present
week 10 all who may desire TO avail themselves
of the opportunity.
Mr.. Guaits IL an srtst Of high merit as his
work will testify, aud gentleman every way
worthy the patronage OF our citizens. He de-
signs making Nashville his permanent resi-.
dence, and we hope he will be successful in
his efforts to introduce this beautiful style OF
painting into the handsome residences which
sdorn our city. We can bot admire il, and
where true genius is found il is worthy Of
fostering care.

Thn Ulrimn,um of the Now Work Hards,

The UItimatum of the New York Hards,
The New York News thus lays down the ultima
tum of the Hards:
Some sogacious persons at Washington who have
been long enough within its imaginary walls 70
feel that there is scarcely any world outside, have
lately hit upon what they deem ian excellent me-
thod Of getting rid of the New York difficulty. 1t
is that both delegations be rejected and the conven-
ton proceed to legislate for the interests Of the
party, without consulting with or seeking the aid
Of the Democracy Of this State"
The vote OF New York was once neutraliZed by
the admission of Free-soiI delegation TO combat
Gen. Cass in l84S. The course then taken proved
so obnoxious to the National Democracy that we do
not fear its repetition.
The course which the Democracy OF New York
have marked out for themselves lie plain and bold
plain because it is prompted by true Democratic
sentiment, and bold because il is sustained By con-
seriousness ofright. They now await impatienty Tor
the delayed verdict soon TO be rendered by their
Democratic peers, aud they feel well assured that
that verdict will be jr,tice 10 the right
The position Of the party Of this State is liked
around it they have planted their stakes and there
if need be, they will dig their graves" The Ma.
tona Democratic delegates Of this State, headed by
Greene G. Bronson, Charles OCOnor, Samuel
Beardsley and George w. Clinton, will appear at
Cincinnati on the I'd of June next as the represen
tatives Of the National Democracy Of New York.
They oiH seek admission or rejection.

Avon, Fulton CO., March %, 1856.
The nomination of Willard Fillmore, by the
American party, meets the happy concurrence
of every true American in the country, not
merely by the members of the order alone,
but substantial men from all parties hail this
nomination with peculiar satisfaction. They
see in the present leaders men who would sac
rifce every principle for power, men who have
deserted every principle laid down by the foun-
ders of the party, and they look upon Willard
Fillmore as q man calculated to place this now
discordant country IN a healthy condition.
Men, whose sympathes have hitherto been
with the Republican party, (since the action of
the Pittsburg COnventiOn,) are satisfied that a
sectional party representing only part of this
Union, is dangerous to the safety of the conn
try. They see in the leaders of that party
men who have tried to dance on every politi-
cal platform, but who have been invariably
kicked off because their rottenness was too
papable. They see in such men as William
h. Seward, Cmen who wonld and have bar
gained with the Bishops of Rome, selling every
American right for the spoils of office,) prin
cipes calculated to overthrow those institu-
tons consecratcd to us by the blood Of our
sainted ancestors. This community see in the
principles of the American party, safety to
our institutions and justice to every part of
the Union, and judging from the past course
of MiIlard Fillmore, they look upon him as
the man for the Union, and ss the best repre-
sentative of Democratic Repu blcan American
principles.

The New York Day Book and Home
Journal.

We made brief mention in our issue Of yes
terday, that Mrs LYDIA Foster, the travelling
correspondent and agent OF the Day Book, was
in our city for the purpose of soliciting sub
scriptions to that paper, aud also for that gene
RAJ favOrite IF the home circle, the Home Jour
aat Of MoRRIs & WILLIS. Mrs. F. has been
connected with the former paper for several
years, in the capacity of letter writer, and her
letters have contributed greatly t" the interest
of its pages. They have won for her name
in literary circles which many, who have made
more ambitious attempts in literature, may
well envy. Mrs. +. has visited nearly all the
cities of the South, and our Southern exchanges
al filed with complimentary notices Of herself
and the Journals she represents
OF the Home syoarndI it is needless to speak.
1t is well known and appreciated in this COM
munity as the best of the Eastern weekles.
Subscribers who wish TO renew, and those who
desire to commence their subscriptions, can
avail themselves of Mrs. F.'s presence in the
city.
The "Day Book" is not so well known. In
1907, II was an dOlo ana consistent W ng Jour-
nal, opposed TO Seward and his freesoil allies,
aud sound upon the slavery question. Through
all the mutations CT party politics, it has main
tanned the last feature, and is now one of the
few Eastern papers that sustain the constitu-
tional rights of the South. But, at the same
time, it differs with the American Party upon
the new issues which gave being to that party,
and may be regarded as one of the most effec-
tive weapons Of offence that "our side" has TO
encounter in its section of the country A
journal Of this character may well be sought
after by the opposition; and should be read by
members of the American Party who desire TO
learn what can he said against their principles,
and what points in their Notifications need
strengthening and additional vigilance for sue
cessful defence. The weekly issue of the Day
Book is double sheet, of the size of the n. Y.

Sam more character and pluck 10 work on

under the force of its pressure. The Express
was fought for in every direction, but there WIS
only one or two copies in town-and there
was at least fifty applicants for them. The
American party have now every element OF
success; all that is needed to ensure the eec.

should be more prominent leaders on the floor
IL. Winter Davis, Jacob Broom, aud others,
