The Northern Conservatives.

Copy of letter from @. b. W., dated Saratoga,
Friday, 18th Angast
"The Wing convention at Albany, yesterday,
was very enthusiastic and large, and unanimous
for Fillmore. New York State is certain for Mr..
Fillmore, and every day he is growing stronger
only hope the Southern people will support him.
1t will be bad policy for them to support Buchan-
an, rest assured For the National party at the
North would be discouraged, and afterwards 90
for the North ! really believe if the Fillmore
people Of the North were convinced the Southern
people would desert him, and support Buchanan,
that Fremont would sweep every Northern State.
Fillmore is stronger at the North than you
imagine, and will carry several Northern States
This State surely
"Do tell your Southern friends, while there is a
good chance for Fillmore, to rally in his support"

Before Col. Fremont left on his last trip to the

THE DISCUSSION.

Our attention was so much absorbed
by the election and the returns. last.
week, that We neglected 10 say anything
about the discussion in this place, on the
Sd inst. .. .......-. ..st.... ...... -..
Mr.. Lewis, in leading of. by reference
to the records. showed the principles OF
the Kansas, Nebraska bill to have been
the uniform policy Of the Cover nment I'M
der all administrations; and by clear. ar
gumentative logic. exposed the duplicity
and inconsistency Of the American party
and Mr.. Fillmore, in now, opposing that
measure, after having supported all its
provisones in other bills. s.s.-..,. ,.s
In following, Mr.. Garlic did not con-
fine himself to the question to be discuss.
ed. but dealt generally in defamation
against the 90 american Democracy" and
the " Democratic Republican parity
He, however, attempted. in part, to sus-
tain his opposition to the bill, and to
throw odium upon the Democratic party
for passing it; but Mr.. Lewis in his clio.
sing fifteen minutes, dispelled the mist in
which he had sought to envelope our par
ty, like fog before the sun.
In discussing the relative merits of the
two candidates, Mr.. Jackson obtained a
complete victory over Mr.. Raymond
The latter gentleman labored hard to tx
the stain of unsoundness on the slavery
question upon Mr.. Buchanan but Mr..
jackson turned the tables upon him, and
conciusively proved that Mr.. Buchanan
was the only sound Candidate in the
field, while Mr.. FiIlmore's record was
even blacker than was that of Mr.. FIRE.
mont himself.
This was the only time during the can
vass in which the issues of the contest
were publicly discussed, and it was at.
tended by the haPpiest results. We have
no doubt that ii a like discussion had Ia
ken place in different parts of the county,
that we should have doubled our largely
increased Democratic majority. This is
sufficiently indicated by the fact that for
the first time within our knowledge, the
Clarksburg precinct gave a Democratic
majority.

PEAcEADLE EMIGRAErs." Some OF
the Kansas correspondents for the news
papers were terribly Indignant over the
arrest Of $50 peaceabe emigrants" in
that territory by GOV. Geary,, but who
subsequently, were released on promises
OF behaving themselves peaceably. The
baggage wagon of these peaceable emf
grants. when overhauled. showed the fol-.
lowing implements Of industry:

The drum as an implement Of husband
ry is a striking improvement upon the old
fashioned mode OF subduing wilderness
and the large quantity of gunpowder
proves that the party expected plenty of
game.

DEATH OF SENATOR CLAYTON.--We have
been for some time advised of the failing
health Of Hon. John NJ. Clayton, United
States Senator from Delaware, and re-
greet now to learn his decease. He died
at his residence at Dover, Delaware, on
Sunday evening, after being confined for
some weeks. Mr.. Clayton had long been
distinguished in the councils of the coun.
try, serving in several Congresses as the
representative of his State, and as Sena-
tor. In the paImy days of the old Whip
party. he maintained an honorable and
noted position among its able leaders, and
on the accession of Gen. Taylor TO the
Presidential chair he called Mr.. CLAYTON
to the important post OF Secretary Of
State. While occupying this position he
negotiated The celebrated Central Ameri-
can treaty with the British pIenipoteulia>
ry. Sir Henry BuIwer. fami,iarly known
AS the Claytou>Bulwer treaty, and the in,
depreciation of which has been almost ev>

versy.
Retiring after General Taylor's death
to private life, he remained therein until

bu'wer treaty became subiect,of discus.
