Voice of the Press.
The st. Louis (Mo) Iatelligencer says:
Buchanan is doomed and defeated AS sure as
Cass was borne down and defeated in 1848, so will
Buchanan be defeated now. He will never sit in the
Presidential chair. Buchanan will not get single
New England State. He will lose New York and
Ohio by 100000. His stronghold of Pennsylvania
is turning from him, and nothing is now more certain
than his ingorous defeat in his own State. In all
the North West Buchanan is as dead as an Egyptian
mummy, buried thousand years ago. He will not
get State north of the Ohio river or west of the
lakes. He will be overwhelmingly defeated in the
| North West. This our opponents know and feel.
The Richmond Whtg says he will not leave the
South with enough electoral votes to make fair
body guard.
NORTHERN ILLINoIs.-The Chicago Citizen has
the following cheering intelligence:
We are daily receiving letters from the southern
part of this State nquiring of who the supporters
of Mr.. Fillmore are in the North? In answer to
these inquiries we will say that Mr.. Fillmore will get
the old line Wings, true Americans, and those Dem
ocrats who are disgusted with both Buchanan and
Fremont which will make plurality over either the
Buchaneer or the Mountaneer. If his friends will
only do their duty in other parts of the State he will
carry it by decisive majority.
GONE 1N.-The Louisville Journal says:
A very respectable merchant of this city, who is q
prominent Democrat, and has hitherto been deceived
ans carrying New Y ork has just returned from the
East and acknowledges that Buchanan will be beat
en- at least one hundred thousand votes in New York.
Thus is the sham Democracy falling from its high
estate New York is gone, Pennsylvania gone Iowa
gone, and Indiana Illinois, and Ohio going very fast
from the Cincinnati platform candidate. His friends
never had any hope for any other Northern State
Their prospects in the South but little if any,
better than in the North.
FILLMORE IN MARYLAND.-The Baltimore Ameri-
can says:
The majority for Mr.. Fillmore in that State will
undoubtedly be as large as that given for Mr.. Clay.
The Hartford MadiSonian says that his majority in
that county will not fall short of 900, and the Cum
berand Civiian promises not less than 200 majority
in old Democratic Allegheny.
Levy Thurman, of Springfield, KY, writes letter
to the Louisville Journal, saying that although
County Elector the Democratic ticket, he is con-
vinced now, that duty to the Union compels him to
vote for Fillmore. Mr.. Thurman, like thousands of
other intelligent old line Democrats loves his country
more than party names
Hon. EDWARD STANLY.-The Washington IN. C)
Herald is authorized to state that Mr. Stanly sup
ports MIR. Fillmore for the Presidency, because he be-
lieves him to be patriot and not from any sympa-
thy with the principles of the American party to
which he has always been opposed.
FILLMORE IN New YoRK.-The editor of the
Brooklyn Evening Star, after taking tour through
New L Ork 0taue, gives Jnc IOuOW1ng as MS impress
sions to what Mr. Filmore's chance in the Empire
State will be:
On the whole brief tour has impressed us with
certainty of our success in this State. With 1872.

Wings, with accessons of the old line Democrats if
we cannot beat faction in the shape of mock repub
licansm and sham Democracy, then indeed is New

position which she occupies in the galaxy of stars
Good cheer, friends, New York is all right.
A FREMONT CLUB GONE OVER IN A BoDY.-We
learn from the Albany IN. W Statesman, that the
Fremont Club of Plattsvle, Ulster county, one hun
dred and thirty strong held meeting last Saturday
night, and after some conversation, rolled up their
Fremont banner and threw it in the fire. and then
marched over in body to the Fillmore headquarters
and joined the Fillmore Club.
Such things are going on all over the State of New
York. Men from the Fremont ranks and men from
the Buchanan ranks are daily joining the Fillmore
party under tie conviction that it is the only party
which, ny the election of its candidates, can restore
peace and harmony to the nation. We shall be sur
prised if Fillmore does not carry New York by far
heavier majority than that great State has ever yet
given for any candidate for the Presidency
Patriot.
The Louisville Journal says Tom Corwin is making
Fillmore speeches, thus mailing the Democratic lie
that he is stumpng for Fremont. x+l

men who were last year Democratic Legislators.
He CAN'T STAND HM.-Col. George w. Gayle,
leading Democrat of Alabama, refuses to support
Buchanan, because he regards him a Freesoiler.
He says, in II recent letter:
However much have esteemed Mr.. Buchanan as
a Democratic statesman of the patriarchal order,
hold the preservation of slavery assailed as it now s
as of highest Importance, and will not vote for him
because he believes that Congress has exclusive iu-
rsdction over slavery in the Territories policy
of indirect abolition. See his letter to Mr. Sanford
