The New York correspondent of the
Charleston Standard makes the fellow
ing statement
A Virginia editor and delegate to
the late know nothing National Coun-
Gil, (Which was slender affar) said
to me during the Council, that they
would like to withdraw Fillmore if
they could, and fuse with the general
opposition to the administration, but
were they to do so, know nothingism
would be at an end in the South, and
all would go for Buchanan. He
thought, therefore, that the best and
only thing to be done was to stand to
the guns, take as many States from
Buchanan in the South as possible,
and thus, perchance, throw the cleo
ton into. the House, where, Fillmore
might stand a better chance.

Northern Know Nelhingism.

The following testimony Of black
republicans in the recent Philadel-
phia Convention will show what is
the kind of "Americanism" as found
in that party North:
Mr.. Littlejohn, of New York,
said that ''without the aid Of the
Americans, JAS. Buchanan would
certainly be elected"
Mr.. Gazzin, of Pittsburg, said
she had opposed the American party
in their earliest organization, but he
could not deny that they formed the
bone and sine,O Of the republican par
ty."
Mr.. Elliott, of Massachusetts,, got
the floor to say that be "thought it
would be better to treat the Ameri-
cans with courtesy-aU the Anseri-
cans, SO far as be knew, are Repubh-
cans"
Can any southern man, who has
the welfare and the rights of the
South at heart, for one moment hes
itate what should be his course in
a contest like the present? The
race is entirely between Mr.. Buch.
anan and Fremont, and every south
ern vote cast for Fillmore or Stock
ton will be a vote indirectly thrown
for Mr.. Fir emont, and the triumph
Of Black Republicanism. Yesouth-
ern men, choose ye, which you will
have to be President over this Re-
public, an Abolitionist or a man
whose whole life has been spent in
the service of his country. Will you
have Fremont, the bosom and polit-
ical friend Of Hale, Seward, Greeley,
and Gidlings, or will you take Buch-
anan, the man who for the last forty
years has stood side by side with
Clay, Calhoun, Webster, and Cass, in
legislating for bis country's good?-
The choice has to be made, and up:
on that choice hang untold response
bilities. With these great questions
the people have much to do, and up
on the result on the 4th day OF No.
vember next they will be called upon
to decide. We would call upon eve-
~ man 10 look at the matter eoolly
aud dispassionaieIy and in the light
Of reason, and remember that the
rights of the State. the constitution
al rights Of the South enter into the
contest. Let each man weigh we'll
the part be is about to act.

WRIT OF CUSTER.

The Pontiac Jacksonian reports a
novel process of ejeetment which has
recently been adopted ID that neigh
borhood:
A somewhat eccentric member of
the Oakland Bar gave q client some
curious legal advice a day OF two
since, which it may not, only be a.
musing, but profitable to relate. A
landlord called upon the lawyer in
great anxiety to know how to get a
non-paying tenant out of his house.
Estate your Case" said the lawyer
The client did so, and said the ten.
ant, after breaking several scores of
promises to pay the rent, was sadly
in arrears, and neither threats mol
entreaties would avail to dispose O.
him. The lawyer, after gravely lis.
tening and carefully adjusting bis
spectacles enquired if the house haC
a chimney, which was answered in
the affirmative. "Then," said he
tHget a bundle of straw and a boart
that will cover the chimney, and some
matches and smoke him out" Tai
advice was followed. The client for
titled, externally and internally a
gainst the inclemencies Of the wealth
er, started the following morning
with straw under his arms for tn,
house. The landlord mounted tn,
house, and the tenant laughed--bu
] the straw was speedily set on fire
and the board properly adjusted, up
on which the landlord sat. SooI
the smoke filed the house -on,
window was raised-then another
then the door was thrown open. :
The wife and children soon began t.
Experience the chilling effects of thi
Thorough ventilation, and in les
than two hours the refractory ten
ant had removed his family an.
household goods to more comfortabl,
Quarters. This method of disposses
sing non-payiug tenant beats sum
mary proceedings by forceable entr,
and detainer, all hollow.

Andrew Jackson Donelsou Brown
lows "big greasy Tennesseean'') as
Editor OF the Washington Union,
spoke as follows of Mr. Fillmore
and his administration. II is not sce
who are thus assailing the Know
Morning nominee for President, but
it is Andrew jackson DoneIson, the
Know Nothing nominee for Vice
President, who speaks thus Of his
file leader and the head Of the order.
1t is for Know Nothings to reconcile
the decided antagonism between the
head and the tail Of their ticket:
HE {FILLMORE1 WAS A BIT

PILL-TO THE SOUTH IN l84S;
and they took him only for the sake
of General Taylor; and since then
be has done literally nothing specially
to commend himself to Southern faror.
1t is true he signed the fugitive law;
but it would nave been stark madness
utter lunacy-in him, or in any
other President, to have refused that
signature. IL was an act of the most
indisputable and imperative necessity
and nothing more. And with the
single exception of that act, HIS
ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN
ONE LONG, SAD, TEDIOUS
FAILURE AND BLUNDER.-

and murders? Who believes that with
the right kind of an Executive, our
government would now have to stand
/ in its present attitude of humiliation
towards Spain and the European In
tervening powers, and at the same
time in such miserable self-contradic-
ton in its course to the reyolutiona-
ry provinces of Mexico? The Exec
ntsve ineGciency in the execution of
the fugitive IaiO, and the wretched
6lunder in the svhole Cuban business
from its. commencement to its close,
in so far as it is yet closed-bave
doomed the administration at the
South. Add to this, that its tariff
policy is utterly at war with South
ern interests, and the last official
explanation Of that policy in the
columns Of the Republic point direct
ly to a restoration Of the 'black
tariff of 1912. is enough to rouse
throughout the whole South, the
most bitter and vide spread hostility.
With these facts in view, it is plain
that President Fillmore can have
no real strength with the people Of
the South, even if We leave out view
the great Galphin odium which his
administration inherited, or the great
Gardiner odjum in which it is i'm
plicated. And it is in these circum-
stances that We find the President
Fillmore putting the last hand to
his ruin at the South, by bringing out
anew, and With justification, HIS
OLD, AND FOR A TIME DOR
MANT ABOLITIONISM.'

The Democratic party never before

ance from the agitating questions
which have, fer years, convulsed the
Union. His election will disperse
the black republicans in every direc.
ition; it will give repose to the coun.
try; will blast forever the politicaI
aspirations Of those who have wick,
edly and designedly periled thu
union Of the States rather than give
! up their chances Of preference and

upon as; and, without giving up ou1
principles or our right Of judgme nj
in all matters connected with public
affairs, We cannot forego the oppor
tunity, at this early stage of thu
canvass, Of urging upon our readers
and all those who may have placed
confidence in us in days that are
passed, the propriety of espousiEe
the cause Of Mr.. Buchanan and con,
tributing to his election by all hon
orable means. As We live, we be-
lieye that nothing short of success:
!. in Frustrating the black republican
party in the contest will save the
Republic. There will be, so far as
practical results are concerned, nc
other parties in the field.
/ The choiceis between black republi
canism, with all its hatred Of the
slave States, and OF our institutions
and all its disregard Of laws enacted
in obediencelto the command Of the
Constitution on the one hand, and
the election of the nominee of the
democratic party-a man of mature
years, of decided ability, Of pure
morality, of tried craftsmanship, Of
true patriotism; aud pledged to the
Union. Kill off black republican
ism, now, and it will never again
have power to disturb the tranquility
of the country. Put it to death
now, and no band of pestilerous poll
ticians will ever again arise to array
one section Of tbe Union against the
other-the Moth against the South,
the East against the West; making
proclamations all over the country
that they care not how soon athe
