PENNsYLvANIA.-ln reference to the prospect
in this State, the Pittsburg Commercial Journal,
which, until the nomination of Col Fremont,
was an advocate of the election of Mr. Fillmore,
says:
1.-The Democrats profess to believe that they
will carry Pennsylvania by large majority with
out struggle. But they have never begun a
campaign with SO little show of enthusiasm from
the rank and file as marks the opening of this,
and we have no difficulty in believing that they
will be beaten 1000 in the State, if the Ameri-
cans unite upon Fremont. And we have as little
difficulty in believing that the American party
will within month show an unbroken front for
Fremont. Settle for us within the month the
question of Vice President, and Buchanan will
have about good chance to carry Pennsyl-
vania as he will have to carry Vermont.
This is the reply we offer to all the Dragging
and Boosting with which the Democratic presses
are teeming We have no fears about the re-
suit

ment when Mr., Haven, Fillmore's law partner
was voting against fee Kanzas in the House of
Representatives, to secure Southern votes for
Mr.. Fillmore
NEW YoRK.-The recent ratification meeting
at Syracuse is one amsng many others of the
significant signs of the enthusiastic and resistless
current which is sweeping over the country in
favor of the nominations of the Philadelphia
Convention. Judge Shankland, venerable
Democrat, presided, assisted by Vice Presidents
aud Secretaries selected equally from the old
parties.
large delegation from neighboring town
reported but four Buchanan men in the place,
and all Of them oficeholders. Speeches were
made by old Democrats, amongst whom was the
editor of the German Democratic paper Hon.
Timothy Jenkins, late Democratic member of
Congress, sent letter, approving cordially the

MICHIGAN. At Republican meeting in De-
t'oit, c j. Dickinson Esq, lately prominent
old line Democrat of Hillsdale county, but Just
returnrd from Kanzas, and who has purified him
sef of slave-driving Democracy, made a very
happy speech. He reports the greatest enthusi-
asn for the nominations in the interior, and
pledged Hillsdale-that county which, in 1852,
gave Pierce 70 majority over Scott, and in 1854
gave Republican majority of over thousand
to give Fremont aud Dayton tio9 thousand ma
jorisy and that Southern Michigan will give
from 5000 to 0.OO0 majority for our ticket.
