more, as it is against those who are support
ing Fremont. The Fillmore men may deny
this ndignantly. hut fair statement Of the
clse will show this to be an undeniable fact.
We are aware that the Fillmore men claim
to be Union men, aud urge the claims Of
their candidate On this ground. They are
honest and sincere in these professions, and
yet the result will show that their candidate
will receive Il vote as sectional as that oi
Fremont
1t is in this way-Filmorc cannot carry
single northern state. His strength viii
lny wholly with the southern States and
his friends hone that he may carry enough
Fremont's strength is in the northern states
Everybody mus; feel this to hc So, who will
pause to calmly view the field, ana whatcv-
! cr may be the intentions and professions Of
the Fillmore men, their continuance in the
contest, viii only have the effect to draw
votes from the only ticket That will run in
both sections OF the Union, with any show
of success.
However national the Fillmorcitcs may be in
their professions, ;he effect Of their contin-
unncc in the field will be, possibly, to d.
vide the vote Of the southern States, with
Ar. Buchanan, while Fremont viii divide
the northern states with him. Is there
candid Fillmore man, who will not admit
this to be true and if So is not their con
tinuance in the field, contributing to n sec
tional issue as much as the action Of the Re-
publican. party.
We do not charge the Fillmore men with
occupying sectional ground; but that such
will be tie effect Of their course.
1t is contcnded by some of the Fillmore
press, that he will carry New York. Against
this probability there arc many facts and
figures. At the Presidential election in -,
the democracy were united upon the clecto
raj ticket, and they gave Pierce majority
Of all the votes cast The vote for President
was as follows:
Pierce. 262 ,0S@; Scott, pa 1872; Hale,
Free SoiD 1920 Pierce thus beating
Scott y .25l votes, and beating both Scott
and Hale ,o22 votes, and the wing candi-
dates by an average of 23 ,43I votes, We ex-
/ tract from the sun.
Again in 1884 the Democracy OF the state
was divided. They nominated distinct tick
cts, uniting upon only one candidate, $. L.
seldom, for.J uIgc OF Appeal. The result of
that election, again, demonstrated the
strength Of the Democratic party ot n York
and that with union and harmony among
themselves they could not be overcome =
The vote Of the three parties Of that year
for Judges of Appeal, and which is about
the average Of the Know Nothing and Black
Republican vote, is as tollows
K.N's, W. w. Campbell, lil,51 G. F.
Comstock, li0. 300; Black Republicans, b.

Democrats, :. l.. Seldom, Ct nion nominee }
l5I So; y. Hill, Jr, (Soft,) l0G,5ll; John
willard, OIard,) 40,172. Thus, while the
entire X. \. ticket was elected, save Wool
for Judge of Appeal, by an average majori-
tv Of from 10 0O0 to T. 600 over the Black
Republicans, the democratic Union cand
late for Judge of Appeals, Mr.. Seldom, wos
e'ected by majority of l0,llS over the X
\ candidate, and by 1870 over the Black
Rerublican candidate
The democratic party of New York, are
now NJ. .ited, and present ono unkrokcn front
to the Ell cmy, while the opposition will be
divided be tween Fremont and Fillmore.
The democracy Of New York have ever
been invincible when they were united. and
they are doubly certain in the approaching
campaign, when the opposition are divided
among themselves. The Fillmore organs
can Squire as they please; but New York
will certainly give Buchanan and Brecken-
ridge n majority of %, 900 IS there sin
ole Fillmore or Fremont man, who can look
at the facts and figures, and not admit it,
