Wilmington journal. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1844-1895, 1856-10-24

We would commend 10 the attention Of Fillmore
men at the South the following extract, from the
New York Journal of Commerce. 1t will show them
that, while they are, unfortunately, too willing TO
sympathise with, mourn with, and re-publish the
slang of these fusi onist the national men, even
of their own party order at the North, understand
the matter better, and, we must say, exhibit more
patriotic spirit. The extract to which allude is
this -
As Betaceen Buchanan and Fremont, Which Filth
the two Fillmore organs in this city assert Wnal
they do not believe to be true, they would rather
the Pro- Slavery Filibuster Democracy triumph
than freelabor, ithrespecting supporters OF Col
Fremont.-N Y. Courier, Friday.
The Courier is quiet correct in its conjecture IL
is difficulty to say which party in this city, the buchan-
an men or the Fillmore men, received the returns
from Pennsylvania with the greatest enthusiasm.
Universally they congratulate each other on the rou
of "the coumon enemy The fact is, as general
thing, the Fillmore desire, as the chief object
to see Fremont thoroughly whipped, and whichever
candidate do ii in the best style, is their man.
They have simply been mistaken in over estimating
the political strength of Mr. Fillmore, and for that
reason have withheld their support from The only man
who is at all competent to lead them to victory In
several instances, to our personal knoWled ge they
have already declared in favor Of Mr. Buchanan, or
hold themselves IN Tedu4neSo ~ Oo oo. NO 11uIc0
of Yesterday, had the fooWlng:-
awe learn Il at in severa sections of this State the
Fillmore leaders me Ike open declaration OF their pur
pose 10 carry their Councils over TO Buchanan"
nz- We have had hard work to get right on the
question of the California DOCTORS but think we have
at last got the thing straight The incumbent of the
Office, the right to which decided in favour OF
Dr.. Langdon turns out to have been Dr. Reid and
not Dr. Cowan. DR.. Langdon, although at one time
member of "tbe order is now good Buchanan
man. as are the Southern men in that State generally
if not universally and also the Constitutional
Northern men who act with them Even the Gov.
ernor of the State elected by the order, is now
Buchanan
So our Wimingtonians in California all right
don't interfere with each other, and all 60 for Buck
and Breck. Good
