dates.
Much has been, and is being said, respect
ing the merits Of the respective candidates
for the Presidency. This is right 1t Is
Just and proper, that their respective mer-
its and qualifications should be known by
and kept before the people, now that the day
is fast approaching, and near at hand when
the people will be called upon to choose the
Chief Magistrate of the Union for four years
from and after March 4, 1871
We claim that James Buchanan, has mer-
tied the confidence of the American people
by his consistent, patriotic course through
n long life of public service, 1t is true that
the record shows some changes in his polit
cal tenets, but we challenge the opponents
Of Mr. buchanan, to show any change in
him, but what of themselves prove him to be
n man who dscards error, and embraces
truth, whenever he is convinced by reason
and observation, that he is or has been in
error.
Such is the fact in regard to his having
been IA Federaist Who, we ask, would
claim that it would add any to his fame or
consistency, to have remained to this day
Fcdcralist especially when the doctrines
of the Federal party, have long since been
exploded
What can be said in regard to Fremonts
merits; What has that gentleman ever
done to ingratiate him into their favor or
confidence of the people, Nothing, all must
answer, nothing as a great statesman, or a
great man, and surely nothing. SO far as re-
CARDS any change in his political opinions
and professions. He has suddenly changed
from being Democratic politician, to being
rabid Black Republican, and at the same
time is n Southern man. Do mis- local and
political positions, being diametically oppos-
ed, recommend him as a sound National man:
We think it squints strongly of polcy-ot
sudden change for self aggrandizement.
The record shows nothing Of him, that
proves him to be a capable, tried and safe
man. If there is anything, it has escaped
our eyes, and we call upon our opponents to
show it
As we consider that Mr.. Fillmore has but
small, fany. show in the fight, it is not
necessary to dwell upon his case much
But we honestly believe, shat comparison
of the record Of his pnblc and official acts.
with those of Mr. Buchanan, will result by
far, in favor of the latter, and therefore shall
only ask each voter to do so, before voting,
and doubt not that they will then vote for
Old Buck.

AMERICAN MEETINGs.-The County
was stumped at three separate places on
Monday evening. Col. Peyton address
ed very large and enthusiastic crowd
at San Juan, Col. Wood spoke to a fine
audience at Orleans Flat and Hon. B.
G. Whitman was honored with splen-
did turn out at Rough and Ready.
A smart little escort met Col. Peyton
at Montezuma with band of music and
accompanied him to San Juan. The
sight on entering the town was beau
tiful one. Flags were flying and ban
ners stretched across the street on which
were painted Welcome to Bale Pey-
ton" and numerous patriotic sentiments.
Three stirriug cheers greeted the Col.
on alighting from his carriage.
In the evening torch light process
sion marched through the town with a
large number of finely gotten up trans
parencies with appropriate devices and
sentiments upon them. Everything was
in excellent taste. The stand was
rooted with he star spangled banner,
and about twenty ladies took their seats
upon the balcony in front to listen to
the speech of Col. Peyton.
The evening was quite cold but the
eloquence of the orator, and the fund of
anecdote which he has ever at hand to
illustrate point, kept thousand men
ON their feet and attentive for more than
two hours.
This was the largest meeting ever at
San Juan, and nothing could exceed it
in enthusiasm.
The meeting at Orleans Flat was ad-
dressed by Hon. E. F. Burton, Mr.. Ely
and Cunnard, one of our candidates for
the Assembly, besides Col. Wood. The
affair passed off gloriously. A gentle
man who was present gives us such an
enthusiastic account of the event, that
we dare not publish it for fear it is over
drawn.
Rough & Ready was highly enter
tanned by our candidate for Congress,
B. G. Whitman, and t. B. Mcfarland
candidate for District Attorney.
