Martin Van Buren, out In Favor OF Buchanan for the Pre-
sidency-The South Again Sold TO the AbolitiOnistsl
Our suspicious are all confirmed. The nomination
Of Buchanan is a cheat and fraud upon the South
II Is the result OF bargain between the Democrat,
and the Abolitionsts IL made TO conciliate the
support Of MAKrrS VAN BrREN! 1t was made because

the Democracy, and fhe 'litte magician of Kinder

people, and thereby betray them into the support Of
Buchanan, the friend and contdant Of Martin Van

consideration, by the Southern Democracy at Gin

boosted determination which has been proclaimed a.

Union. The wishes of Van Buren, swayed the Gin
cinnati Convention and the result is before us Blu
chanan is the candidate, because Buchanan was the
choice of Martin Van Buren,
The Southern people OF all parties can now see the
game which the spurious Democracy is trying to
play OFF upon them. They see that the election OF
Buchanan will be restoration Of the Van Buren, dy-
nasty. For one, confess that this last develop

and degrading lot, but you must endure IT as best
you can. We suggest though, that your Cincinnati
managers, and intrguers and hucksters might have
done better for you. If they had sold you TO Fred
Douglass, instead of Van, there would have been sr
less shame aud humiliation in submitting TO your
fate. As it is, they have actually degraded you be
