The Fillmore organs, with the New York
Erpress at their head, are claiming that a GER
tain note given by Fremont, could not be sold
in the New York money market at discount
Of two per cent month, and endeavor to
make political capital out Of it. Now their
assertion may be true, nit may be false we
know not, and care not, which. Itnever oc-
CURED to us before that it was necessary for
acandidate for the Presidency tobe wealthy
man; though we have observed that there
are certain class fpersons, generally known
as q" cod fish aristocracy," who deem it dis
gracs to even be found in the society of poor
men-men who, like Fremont, have TO earn
their money by honest toil-and almost Grim
inal for them to vote to place such persons n
offices of honor and profit. If those journals
represent the feelings of Fillmore, and if he
thinks poverty would disqualify Fremont for
the Presidency, be deserves to be consigned
to everlasting infamy, and his name forever
to be by-word and rcproach in the eyes Of
all honest laboring men. We had always
held it to be one of the most admirable fea-
lures of our national government, that prop
erty was not necessary to secure place. If
Filmore's friends think otherwise, let them
continue to raise the cry that Fremont is poor
man, and therefore not fit 10 be President.
