New York for Fillmore.

The Albany IN. Y. Statesman says:
NEW York WILL GO FOR FrLIMoRE.-Let this
no longer be doubted. New York is as sure TO
cast her vote for the American ticket, as the
day OF election is certain to co.ae. Nothing in
the future is more certain. The American
party in this State is a unit. Thousands not
ranked as members of our party, will give
their sutfrages to Mr.. Fillmore, because he is q
safe man. Every day We hear aud see I'M
misiakeabls evidence of Mr.. Fi!lmores great
strength among the people without party dis
tinction.

For the Nashville Patriot.
To Miss Fannie w. SehOn,
SUGGESTED BY HER ESSAY AT GRADUATION

To Miss Fannie w. SehOn,
Like golden gories on the clouds,
Like foam upon the sea,
Like Autumns russell on the woods,
Or flowers upon the tree:
So Fancy is to sterner Truth,
And glds it with its light,
And makes what else would be pain
The source Of pure delight.
Like sunlight on the distant hills,
Or music to the verse,
Like Winter evenings cheerful fire
When storms their hymns rehearse:
So Fancy beauties our thoughts
And sparkles in their flow,
And gives to what else would be cold,
Vivacity and glow.
Too rough, and dark, and cold the Earth,
And desolate Hfes day,
If cheerful Fancy does not throw
Some sunshine on the way.
Fen when the barque of being gdes
Upon tranquil stream,
The voyage loses half its zest
Unlit by Fancy's beam.
But, oh when grief hath wrung the heart,
And clouds enfod the soul,
And HURTING blasts sweep DER the way
Which leads Us to our goal,
IT'S Hopes glad song and sunny smile
Which cheer us in woe,
And throw their radiance the clouds,
And crown them with her bow.
FANNIE, may the clouds that DER thee fly,
Throughout ife's weary march,
Bear on their folds Hopes emblem pledge,
The sun-buit rainbow-arch

John Van Buren, was on the platform, and ap-
plauded Senator Douglas vehemently. Yet des

the officers Of the meeting no, to allow Van Buren,
