More Signs I

Here few more signs which we Gull at ran
dom from Black Republican papers, which serve to
show how the tide is receding from old Buck. The
striking fact is that il is the Demoeraeythe 'natu-
raj allies"-who are going over to Fremont
1--WE have private letter r. postmaster in Wis.
ccnsin which says: The Fremont Is moving on
rapidly in Wisconsin The Buchanan very
scarce and in places Buchanan man would be a
curiosity.
Hon Thomas Davis the leader OF the Democratic party
In Rhode Island has taken the stump for Fremont and is
doing good service.
The German Republicans Of the Twentieth Ward ~.
~ had great gathering Monday evening at the
ner OF Eighth Avenue and Th,y-fouth Stirring
addresses made Ia German, and the meeting was
unanimous and enthusiastic in support of Fremont and
free-soil
1--WE have letter from Towanda, Bradford county, Penn
sylvsua whc that there 5000 voters in that
county and that Of this number Buchanan will hardly
receive 2.OOa.

to be taking the lead In this city They all say
and very many believe they will keep the lead"

Burlingame.

The Boston Courier says of this pretendeF:
" Mr.. Burlngame is aboltionist-as black and
thorough abolitonst Theodore Parker or VIM.
Lloyd Garrson-and his election attained through
shameless fraud and disgusting hypocrisy. He impos-
ed himself upon the Know Nothings of his District
OF their order and left them he had received
the favor from their hands which he had earned by HE
double dealing"
So his pretence of willingness to fight Brooks was
his first false pretence.

admission, that Fillmore was the only obstacle to
Black Republican success in every Northern State

interruptions Of the Black Republican party-they
