Major Donelson determined to pile up the evidences
of abotionism on Mr.. Fillmore. In September,
1851, he called Mr. Flmores Secretary of the Treas
ury, Tom Corwin, to the witness stand:
Z" 1t is we'll known (says Major Donelson) that in
the summer of 1S48, at town in Ohio called Ridgly
Mr.. Corwin, in advocating before the whg abolition
lists Of that State Mr. Fillmore's election as Vice
President, declared in public speech that Mr. Fill
more was then a known abolitionist'"
1t was not until October, 1851 that Major Donel-
son was able to draw Mr.. Filmore's special organ
into an admission of the genuiness of the Erie letter
OF 1888 He had printed and reprinted it over and
over in the Union, and tainted the special organ
with it's abolitionsm but finally the special organ
republshed the letter and admitted its genuneness:
whereupon Major Donelson indted an editorial with
this overwhelming caption: "BoLD AND MANLY

went a little ont of the way to make y
friendly call upon The Preside. eleat. AZ
ter describing tae approach TO that gentle
mans residence, he continues as follows:
Now stand at the gate of the residence
Of the President elect. The mansion is pic.
turesque and elegant. A PLAIN black wood
en- fence separates it from the road A cir.
cular path hidden by forest trees and shrub
berry, guides up to the MANSION. The car
riage drive Is q hard gravel and the whole
area IS carefully ard neatly swept, trimmed
and in order. No steps OF childhood mar
the elegant borders, and no play toys litter
the land. The dwelling house is Of brick

columns, adorns the front entrance. and the

Buchanan is not a farmer---his whole estate

On my passage out to Wheatland I fell in
with one of the farmers who lives near MIR.
Buchanan. He spoke warmly Of Mr.. b.

he was a plain man and kind neiahbos-
that he seldom rode TO Lancaster but tray

The Banner State.

Virginia claims to be ''the banner State"
OF the Democracy in the lste Presidential
contest. She is entitled to be so consdered
if the appellation ia to be bestowed upon that
State which has given the largest Democrat
ic majority. But few weeks ago, and the
"Old Dominion" was claimed for Miiiiard
Fillmore by the Know-Nothings of that and
of this State Indeed, so deceived were some
Of the "know nothing Ones" that bets were
made on that result. The election in 1866
had failed TO teach those over sanguine gen
tlemen even prudence And now that Viz.
ginia has gone for Buchanan by majority
OF thirty taoasoad aotes, it is clear they
were-nsiaahea, that's all. The majority is
truly sweeping one, 1t puts to rest all
doubt as 70 the devotion of the people of
Virginia 10 the South and Southern in-
stitutions, if within her wide limits there do
dwell such men as Bolts and his compeers,
and if, in an hour Of danger and of trial there
were found many of her patriotic sons will
ing to be deceived, Well done, glorious old
State Yon were the first to give deadly
blow to Know Nothingism-you are first
now on the list of States that have elected
Buchanan AS you have won, SO will you
wear your honors
But Virginia is Southern State and
the majority which she has cast for Buchan-
an might have been expected of her. II is
for this that we, while giving all credit to
the cold Dominion" would say to our rea-
ders-- look at Pennsylvania, at New jersey,
at Indiana, at Illinois 1t was there, in
each of these States, that the battle ragged !;
aud it was there, in each one, that the battle
was won by northern Demoerats-yes, won
by AotAefn Democrats. Is there no ban
aer fof these States :? Shall they be placed
at the South second on the list ofstates that
voted for buchanan :? Never Let the
South fail back until the post of honor be
conferred on the -slaveholding States,

For the Eindicator.

Vi tue NIuulcdIor
Several of us have been discussing, late
ly, why it is, that married men are so much
more agreeable to the girls tlan single oncs7
One said, the girls ignore that great princ-
pie, "honor among thieves" which we hear
so much Of. For instance, q young LADY
takes her man for better or for worse, and
has hardly time to turn around before half
a dozen others are trying TO show him what
a mistake he has made in not taking them,
thereby getting the poor fellow curtain
lecture at least three weeks before he is en-
titled to one, i'll the nataral coarse ofavents.
Another took az entirely different view
Of the matter; he thought, having married
one, the gentleman was initiated by her into
those winning little ways 50 necessary TO
please the dear creatures, such as handing q
book, or any thing else asked for, with a
very knowing smile getting up little
secret, and when others Join ia the CONVEX
sation, abiding to it constantly, with mys-
FERROUS winks, raising the eyebrows, &C.
But whether it was worth while to 20 thro'
so much to leasn so little, he left for those
most interested to decide
A third drew our attention to the fact,
that it was only few of the silliest of the
Bencdicts who were epets, AID suggested
that having become. familiar with their
wives, and forgetting that It was marriage
that made them SO, they think they can take
the same little liberties with all other la6lies
Now, two or three Of US having married
friends who were fayoritcs with the girls,
objected stoutly to this as a stlicS rule IT
might do generally, bat cur friends were
executions to it; we compromised, at last,
by allowing cur friends to be silly while en-.
gagged in firtations.
A fourth declares, the girls think mas
is rendered perfectly harmless by marriage,
so they allow him to squeeze their hands,
and sometimes, even to kiss them with
perfect impunity. How they arrived al
such a conclusion he was unable to say, but
that they had done so was manifest from
their behavior
The fifth thought the petting and the fuss
made over the poor fellow was cunning
little trick to draw others into the net; and
that he, like She fox with his tail cut of. .
tries, by his pretended enjoyment, to assist
them; this opinion is Filtered BY most
incorrigible old bachelor. And now, dear
married friends, that have taken the trol.
bic to put down some Of the most outrage
Gus of the opinions expressed that night,
hope some of you will give me arguments
to eontrovert them. As YOUR friend,
should dislike very much to believe those
fellows could be right in any opinion they
have expressed, though all mpst admit they
have put them IN the taost plausible dress !;
aud then, too, even |, must admit you have
not behaved in The most prudent manner.
These little impruaences are thrown into
the faces of your friends with tie most
stunning force 2.

"M4EtEa THE Breach WIDER. THE
Washington Union says, that the Hon. Mr..
Archer, g. n of Illinois, whose right to
a seat in Congress was contested by Mr..
Allen declared on hearing the decision Of the
Committee Of Elections, which was to refer
the whole question back to the people, that
he would make the breach WIDER at the
November election. Well, the November
election has taken place, and Mr., Allen has
beaten Mr.. Archer about three thousand
votes This is making the breach wider
with vengeance.
