Post did not have sufficient penetration to
discover the object of Mr.. RitcJies speech.
What was intended MS burlesqtfe he takes
in good earnest, and snbjectseit to severe
crItcl'm.-C Cleveland Banner.
Oh! "lntended MS burlesqae," was il? OF
course. And all those extravagant articles
about Cleveland, which have appeared in the
Banner from time to time, were "intended as
burlesques" Certainly! And the "Town Or.
dnance"-that was burlcsque, too! 10
be sure. And the extended account in the
last Banner about the "sharp practice" of
the she-male conjuror, was another "bur.
lesque" Unquesiionably. But then, what
does our neighbor mean by SO sporting with
the interests and holding up his town to the
laughter and ridiculc of the whole country?
Fie, Colonel! it is foul bird that defles its
own nest. "Burlesque," indeed Really our

Mr.. FILLMoRE's BUFFALO LETrER.-A
Washington correspondent writes us follows
of Mr.. Filmorc's Buffalo letter, copy of
which win be found in our paper today:
Fillmore's great letter on "Americanism,"
published in Saturday evenings Express, was
received here on Sunday morning. II came
like the "Naiiius Engine Bombshel" among
the Black Republicans. The letter has piyen
the Americans more character md pluck TO
work on for the future. The Republican
leaders here have already backed down and
given way under the force of its pressure
The Express was sought for in every direc.
ton, but there was only one or two copies in
town-and there was ut least fifty applicants
for them. The American party have now
every element of success; ali that is reeded TO
ensure the election of Fillmore and Donelson
is more concentration and energy in Con.
gress. There should be more prominent
leaders on the floor. ii. Winter Davis. Jacob
Broom, and others, should take stand in the
house. Clayton, Crittendcn, and Bell, should
also appear as leaders Of the American party
in the Senate, ready at all times to support
and advocate their principles before the
country.

/! HENRY y WISE lNsANE.--It is said and
believed in Richmond, by persons who have
the very best opportunity of knowing, that
Coy. Wise's mind is very much impaired-
indeed so much so that he should not be
held responsible for his language or writings.
An effort has been made to suppress these
facts, but they hive leaked out. If this be
so--ahd there seems to he no reason to doubt
it-Mr Wise is entitled to1he sympathy and
pity rather than the enmity, of those against
whom his vlrulent, yet harmless ratings, are
