Northern Elections.

But that we resolutey refuse to admit the ioea, we
would be driven to the conclusion that the result OF
tho elections in Maine. Vermont and Iowa, are hailed
with Measure by the Fillmore press of the South,
since they have formed the burden OF their song for
the period that has interviewed, since the returns nave
been received. Black Republican trumphs have
been hailed as something improving Mr.. Flilmores
chances, are urged as reasons why the South should
support that gentleman in preference to Mr. ouch-

the Democrats in Maine We mghT retort by ASK

were for two of them have been elected on the same
State ticket with the Black Republicans. The same
is said to have been the case in Maine. Again we
ask where were the Fillmore men IN any OF the otaeS
at the North in which elections have been held -
What have they done, what strength nave lney eA'
bibi,od what course have they pursued, that the
South should be asked TO go with them' or Dc per
suaded TO believe that they either can or Will 40 any
thing to forward the interests OF CONSTITUTIONAL
or conservative government? Can 1t be SHOWN that

Republican nominations If 80, where Not IN

these States everything coalesced to oppose Demo-
cracy, to swell this Republican triumph. Are we 10
look to Indiana, where Fremont and Fillmore run the
,oe eIec,orial ticket name for NAME where the New
Albany Tribune the leading Fillmore paper OF the
State, uses the following language The fusion OF
the parties for the Presidency s now complete winch
seals the fate of Buchanan in Indiana. The friends
of Mr.. Fillmore should now go TO work to secure the
majority of the vote of Indiana for him. If they sue

will be cast for him. Let there be Ctasng beOeen
The friends of Fillmore and Fremont BECAUSE THEIR

the fusion Fremont and Fillmore electoral ticket s
the name of George c. Dunn, Fillmore member OF
Congress from Indiana, showing that should the
coalition fail before the people, and the election be
thrown into House. the same of fusion would be
pursued,-a warning to those who think highly of
throwing the election into that body.
In Pennsylvania, in Counties, Congressman Dis
tricts, and the State at large, fusion has been ex-
tensiyely carried on As yet the Fremonters have

think them good enough for their use, or they con-
template fusion after the State election shall have
indicated TO the wireworkers the most likely course
to secure the defeat of Buchanan, and if possible
throw the election into the House.
If the South can be brought to believe that her
safest and best course is 10 desert the party that
lone at the North has opposed itself to Black Re-
publicanism, and go for the candidate of a party
that in that section has either ANONYMOUSLY sue
cumbed to- or tratorously fused with the worst enc
mics of her Institutions, then we have nothing &c
say But she can be brought to believe such non
sense. The abest of the former opponents Of Demo
Cracy throughout North Carolina, feel the absurdty
of such appeals to induce them 10 support Mr.. Fill
more and are, day by day. taking up their position fol-
Buchanan. Look at the report of the Wadesboro
meeting of the 10th, furnished US by one Of the most
respectable gentlemen in Arson county, and may BIZ
fully relied upon. We know that the gentlemen
who came out and took position with are among
the very first and most leading Wings of the county
The more is of the course of Mr.. Fillmore
Northern friends, the more clearly does the Soutl
perceive the folly Of supposing that he has AM
chance, or of relying upon him even if he had.
We see occasional notices of the appointment o
delegates to Wing National Convention to he he'll
sometime shortly at Baltimore. The name of the Con
venton is so far defective nasmuch as the word 'Fill
more is omitted. 1t is not designed to be anything
but Fillmore gathering, and will represent on
that portion of the Old Wings who would go witt
the Know Nothlngs, Convention or no Convention. -
1t will be gotten up simply to deceive somebody int
the idea that those composing it recognise the ex
istence and represent the views of party, the re
mains of which they design carrying into the CAM
of those who assert that they have risen upon its ru
ms. The Wing party of Maryland will be there
will it, while all that gave it prestige and Nationa
reputation is already out for Buchanan? The Wits
party OF North Carolina will be there will it, Will
its best men ore daily Joining the ranks of Buchanan
and the Constitution The Wing party of Philadel
