Fillmore aud DoneInon.

The Troy New York Wing makes the fol-
lowing sensible remarks upon the pending con-
test for the Presidency, which We endorse SIS
correct view of the prospects of the American
candidates. The efforts of the Forney aud
Pierce party, like those of the Republican par
~, have been chiefly directed, of late, to creHte
the impression that the contest is between
these two parties, and that the American party
has but little strength anywhere at the North.
This cunniDgly devised scheme, it was suppos-
ed, would drive the Southern Americans into
the anti-Americans ranks, and drive the
Northern Americans into the Republican
ranks, SO that the contest would then be pure
ly sectional contest, and lie wholly between
the suti. American or pseudo Democratic par
ty aud the Republican party. The Troy Wing,
on this point says:
"No intelligent, cool -headsl man can longer
doubt that either Willard Fillmore or James
Buchanan is 20 be our next President There
is not a shadow ota prospect for aDy third can
didate.-Ihis fact is capable of arithinetcal
demonstration. This majority of the delegates

at Philadelphia fully convinced that " hoever
they nominate, he is 10 he beaien-that he Is
10 be the third man in the race--that ~ the
