The Nashville Patriot OF saturday says:
During the past few days the attention Of some
of our citizens has been arrested by the appear
anee, on the Louisville turnpike, Of q number OF
Foreigners, with black sacks, vending their way
towards Nashville number of these gentry
came into the city yesterday. Upon being CUES
toned, they say they are In quest OF work We
suspect their real mission is to vote IN this State,
il they can get chance to do 80, for Buchanan
and Breckinridge. Our friends should be on the
alert--they should mark these fellows and see that
they do not attempt 70 ste the true continent OF
the people Of Tsnnessee at the ballotbox.
The opposition have been offering bets upon
carying Tennessee by large majority. A gen.
tlsman hom Alabama, who could not possibly be
better posted In regard to the condition Of things
10 this State, so far ~ its legal voters are con-
cerned, than we are, declared whilst on visit
here last Tuesday, that the Democratic majority,
would be seven thousand in this State; and gen.
hsmsn Of this city recently overheard couple Of
Irishnen converting, He learned from the con.
yersation that there would be attempts made TO
vote number Of their couutrymen, new Corners,
and that II was thought polite to distribute them
about among the several districts. Now, we do
not intend to charge the Democratic party with
having made preparations to overthrow the Amer
lean party in Tennessee by the introduction of
Goths and Vandals to vote but these things, at
beet are suspicious, and should arouse every Amer
lean to more than ordinary vigilance
MrssRs. RAYsrR AND Borrs.--Mr. Rayner, Of
North Carolina, and Mr.. Bolts, have both address
ed letters to gentlemen in Philadelphia in favor Of
union ticket. But Mr.. Rsyner, after visiting
Philadelphia, has changed his mind, as we learn

Of PsnnsyIvGniG
II being now regarded a. a settled fact that the
friends of Millard Fillmore are determined to stand
by their candidate, and have no cOnnexion with
any other organization, and we can thus vote for
Mr.. Fillmore on broad national grounds, we call
upon the conservative national mon Of Pennsyl
vmia who are opposed to the principles of the
Cincinnati Platform and the Ostend policy Of Its
candidate, TO unite with ID In the support Of the
true Fillmore and Dones0n electoral ticket, head,
ed with the name Of Joseph r. Ingsrsoll, and thus
sustain the man who knows no North, and no
South, no East no West, and will stand by the
Constitution, one and indispensable now and forever.
The tide Is setting strongly in favor of the
straght-out Fiior Alectorzl ticket over the State,
notwithstanding the efforts AZ the Republican wire
pullsrs to euibarfase The American party, and if
little more time were allowed Fillmore would sweep
the Gtate.hH a Overwhelming majority. As it is
our fksld1 y csuAdent of doing good days work
on Tuesday next There ID encouragement to hope
