were, IN politIcs,-especially when parties
become geographical; but without regard to
results, do right. Is it right to elect Fillmore
over Buchanan! Or, rather, is it not wrong,
not thus to elect him?
What Fllimore's policy is, OF is to be-, we
know from the records Of 1850 and on.--but
what Buchanan's it to be,--we know not, be-
cause his party. for the first time, have inter-
polated foreign plank in their platform,
which, under the inspiration Of the Soues,
may embrol this country with all the world.
buchanan IS pledged to that policy. Iam no
more James buchanan, he tells US, but the
CINCINNATI Platform! Thus, war abroad and
continued dlscord at home are the promised
fruits Of such an election Is it not wrong,
then, thus to sotes Nay, is it not crime.-
and without any regard to Fiimore's chances,
ought not every man to do right, knowing
that God, in the end, will maintain the rghtr
II IS crime too,--to make this election
sectional, geographical the Fremont and
buchanan men are making it. Mllard Fill
more alone removes the canvass from this
danger Of sectionality. Fremont's strength
IS all North. Buchanan's practical strength
4 is all South. Fillmore alone embodies the
conservatism Of the whole Union. Fillmore
alone has the hands and hearts Of the con-
seryative men in all parts Of the Union. 1t
is folly then to try to triumph over the
North with Buchanana or over the South
with Fremont.
Now, the Express is not Journal that
! propheses, or predicts,-as some other Jour-
mails often do. Do right without regard to
results, has ever been our maxim, and our
policy. lience,-we have no predictions to
ake,-but we have right to say,-the can
vass, on the part Of the Fillmore Party in
the North, has scarcely begun. The history
Of Fremont, Fillmore's real combatant here,
IS not yet known to our farmers. They have
heard Of him only as geographer,-but they
have not heard Of him yet,--as a Statesman,
soldier,-or as to Uis principles. The first
go.oft Is already abont gone Oft. The North
ern people are not long dupes, and when
duped they soon emancipate themselves from
the dupery. The more time given us. the
more We increase our strength. In the New
England States we have not, as yet, fairly
approached the people,-certainly not be-
yond the State OF Connecticut,-b as we
came before the public,-we rapidly dispel
the Fremont delusion. The whole Fremont
sham is daily coming out,-and daily eman-
cipating men from il. When the people are
reached on the stump,-the frauds Of the Free
mont Press will soon vanish before free dis
cussiun.
The most alarming element uf this canvass,
especially to the South, is the abandonment Of
the Democracy BY the Germans, and to some
extent BY the Irish. The Americans do not
court foreign votes, but accept them grateful
ly,-if given to American principles. The
Democracy Of the North, however, exists on,
nay, breathes on its foreign vote. Take away
its foreign v0te-and it is no where in the
North, on an election day, especially in the
villages, towns and cities. Now the German
yote, to great extent. is gone over to Fres
m0nt,-and this abandonment Of this portion
Of the Northern Democracy, shows how little
reliance the South can really place on the
, Northern Democratic Party. In the very
first sectional onset,-the Foreign Democracy
Of the Democratic Party enlists in sectional
warfare against the South. The i" Red"
