FiIlmore,s Prospects.

"To.day will long be remembered IN this CITY.
The people are gathering in from all sections to
our grand Fillmore and DonelsQn pole and flag
raising General Pitcher and other distinguished
speakers are present and will participate. Your
paper is working wonders among the thinking
classes OF people. Long may you live to battle IN
so glorious cause. Kentucky is safe lot
the American ticket"
From Owenton, Kentucky, July %, sub
scriber writes us:
"Politics are running high Old Kentucky will
roll up good majority for Fillmore and Donelson
in November next" ~
From Henderson, KY, subscriber says
FILLMORE stock l.75 above par. Give us New
York, and his election will be sure"
Do you hear that, sons of the Empire State
Kentucky sends greeting to New York, that
| New York can decide the contest New York
will respond, Amen
From Greensboro, Georgia, subscriber
writes us
"Filmore and ponelson stock commands a pre-
MUM in this section and the friends of the patriot
statesman entertain hope of carrying Georgia for
the Model President This is no forlon hope,
either The conservative and patriotic sentiments
expressed in the late speeches Of Mr. Fillmore have
rekindled the fires OH many Wing altar, and hun
dreds who were doubtful and wavering are now
firm and decided in the support OF their great lead
or. The moderate men whose sympathies are IN
unison with his, are daily focking to his standard.
We are therefore sanguine of political rout equal
to, ifnot surprising, that Of 1S4o."
That will do pretty well for Georgia, to-day,
and especially when we assure our readers 1t
comes from man of information and respect
ability, inferior to few, fto.any, in that State.
From Old Virginia, too, we have encour-
aging news. From Richie county, in Vir-
ginia, subscriber writes us
"We have plenty of Fillmore men out here,
and the cry is, still they come !"
From Clarke county, Virginia, an intelligent
gentleman writes u.s.
Prospects here have become very cheering.
With the strength Of the old-lne Wings now
united with US, we have good chance to carry
| the Old Dominion for Fillmore and Donelson."
From Rarkersburg, Virginia, we have just
received through the hands Of DR., j w. NJ,
the most substantial evidence of the progress
of Americanism in that region, consisting of a
draft in payment for ono hundred subscribers
to the Organl We like that kind of testimony.
1 Fr9H Warrenton, Virginia, we are informed
that Fillmore ana Donalson are gaining ground
most rapidly, and no doubt is entertained there
that Virginia will swell the American triumph
by adding her electoral votes to those of the
other conservative States.
From Tuskegee, Alabama, Gas from other
portions Of that State, our news is cheering
subscriber says .
/" Fillmore and Doneson are gaining ground
daily in this section The late speeches of Mr..
Fillmore have created great enthusiasm among his
friends-they know him to be SAFE sound reliable
and firmly believe him to be the man for the times
We are determined to make the effort and to spare
no pains to carry Alabama, and we have encour.
aging neEa !rpm every quarter of the State, and
hope to make good report in November"
That sounds pretty well for Alabama, and
we will add in this connection, that we are re-
ceiying more subscribers from that State than
from any other, and VIC now send more Cam
paign organs to Alabama than to any other
State.
From Florida our accounts are equally cheer
ing~-indced, it seems evident, from letters we
get from Florida, that Amercanism must h'i-
umph there.
A letter from an intelligent subscriber at Ma
rianna, Florida, says:
Fillmore's Albany speech has been of great adj
vantage to him in this State We can now num-
Der many with us, whs at first were in opposition.
/ have just been informed that Buchanan is losing
ground in Alabama. am confident in saying that
the result Of the election next November in Fori-
da will be equally as gratifying to the American
party as it will prove source of disaster and deep
modification to that organization which, in its pre-
Judicial ZEAL foTgets country and all that is dear to
an American, and qnites with foreign pauperism
and crime
From Missouri, subscriber writes US thus:
"This State win give Fillmore and Donelson
twenty thousand majority over Fremont and Bu-
chanan. IL all the other States would do as we'll
as Missouri, Fillmore would beat the other two to-
gether."
We have erery confidence in Missouri The
groundwork Of Americanism was laid there
in 1912, and we shall ever be proud of the
fact that we were one of the five or six per-
sons, who met together at St Louis, and first
devised ways and means to set about that re-
formation which now overspreads and will re-
deem the cauntry.
The enemies Of our cause may attribute the
success of the American party, in Missouri, to
the discussions in the ranks OF the "harmoni-
GUS Democracy" They ara mistaken. In
our judgment Willard Fillmore can carry Mis-
souri, against the combined elements of alien
ism, Free-soilism, and all other isms that exist
within the limits of that State. Amoricanism
is gaining ground rapidly in every portion Of
Missouri, and among all parties, save that of
the foreigners, headed by Fremont
We must reserve our Northern and North
western extracts of letters for another issue
