Hon. JAMES BUcHANAN.-The Philadelphia Penn
sylvanan gives the following extract from private
letter from Mr.. Buchanan to gentleman of that
City This language is worth of the lofty character
and unsuled patriotism of the man who penned it:
"You refer to the connection of my name with
the Presidency. This l neither
desired nor expected. The movement in my favor
has, therefore, originated without my previous knowl
edge or consent and should be quite satisfied
should another be selected.
The next will be the most important and respon-
sble presidential term since the last war with Eng
land perhaps since the origin Of the government.
Both our foreign and domestic affairs will require
the guidance of able, firm and skifull pilot to
steer the vessel of State clear of the breakers.
pray Heaven that the best man may be selected for
the crisis, and to me it is matter of indifference
whether he comes from the North or the South, the
East or the West"

TIE True SPIRrr-Thc Sandy Hill,
Washington County, n. " Herald, an old
Democratic paper, HOSTS the American ticket
and in a long and very able editorial says:
Americans you have a candidate tried and
proved. One standing between these mad
and hostile elements and able. and if placed
at the helm will guide the good ship Of State
safely through the winds of factions and the
breakers of disunion. In mailing the name of
Willard Fillmore to the masthead, we appeal
to no dcnagogue or fanatic. We expect no
support from the Giddinsses and the Grccley's
of the North, nor from the Atchisons and the
Brookses of the South.
But, thank heaven, there is class ofmen
besides them, yet left in this fair land. Sober
thinking men, who love their country and her
welfare; who are tired Of intense striiea and
wran.lings, and who ask for one whom they
can trust to, and lie down to sleep at night
without expecting to hear the tocsin before
morning. These men can vote if they can
not floth and buster. These are the men
we speak to, in the North and i'll the South.
| These arc the men we can look fairly in the
face and ask their suffragcs for Willard Fill
more the statesman the patriot, and We trust
with their aid, the nest President Of these
United StatlS.
