The Cry is "Still they Come. :"

A correspondent Of the Valley
Star, writing from the Salt Sulphur,
mentions the fact that Judge John j.
Allen, President Of the Court of APP
peals of Virginia, a gentleman of the
most extensive information, and an
old line Wing, and Judge Fulton, y of
the -Wythe circuit, another old line
Wing, and q gentleman Of talents
and learning, will both support Buch-
anan> and Breckenridge. : +
We have for some time known OF
Judge Aliens purpose to vote for
Buchanan, but we felt a delicacy in
parading his name before the public,
but as his position has been noticed
by the public press, we no longer feel
restrained from noticing III the Chron-
icle his intentionfto vote the Demo
cratic ticket in November. We are
glad to have it in our power to an
nounce the fact that SO pure, so learn
ed and so conservative q gentleman
as Judge Allen, though all his life a
Wing, deems it now patriotic duty
to vote for the nominees pf the demo
cratic party. Theaccession of Judge
Fulton, too, is important. He has,
heretofore, been a staunch Wing, and
a few years ago represented the Alb
ingdon district in Congress as a
Wing. But he now sees the Demo
cratic. party is the only National par
ty in existence, and as q patriot, he
feels bound to support its nominees.
We learn, too, that Judge G. d.
Camden, of the Harrison circuit, an
old line Wing, and a gentleman Of
great intelligence, intends voting for
Buchanan. Judge G. is a man OF
much influence, and his accession to
the Democratic ticket will have great
weight in North western Virginia.
1t is evident, from all the facts we
can gather that the conservative por-
ton Of the old line Wings ARE now
using their influence for the nomi
nees ofthe democratic party. Thought
less persons may think strange of this,
but it is a necessity Of the times
We are only astonished that any in
telligent, rejecting Wing, should
hesitate as to his choice. However
national Mr.. Fillmore may be, the
party urging his claims is not nation
al. This Is an indisputable fact,
and should influence national men OF
every party to vote the Democratic
ticket in November. The Democrat
ic party is a national party. Its posi-
ton before the. country now is ma
tional, and for these reasons should
receivethe support of national men.
We deem it not improper here to
say, that the best feeling peryades
the Democratic ranks in this region.
The accession from the Know-Noth-
ing party to Buchanan in Greenbrier
are too numerous to ennumerate. In
Fayette, too, all is right. Col. A.
Calder Bailey, . young lawyer OF
promise, and son of Judge E. b.
Bailey, reared q Wing, but more re-
Gently one Of Sans followers, has
come out for Buck and Brock, and il
doing all he can in his county for the
success of the Democratic party
Many others in Fayette, who, like
Col. B., were seduced BY Sam, year
ago, to enter the culvert, have de-
ciared for the Democratic nominees,
and give every assurance that they

the marked attention paid to Count Money

please the English government. The English

SPIRIT OF TIE MORNING PRESS.

The Union, in sllusion to the comments OF
the Inteiitgsneer upon the letter of Mr. Jenk
ms, of Georgia, thinks Mr. jenkins has good
reason for regarding Mr. Fillmore as in favor
Of the restoration Of the Missouri Compromise,
and that the editors Of the IntciifgeneU have
placed themselves in the dilemma of support
ing candidate whose position is sanctioned
by neither prudencs nor patriotism. Accord
ing to the Union's understanding, there is no
foundation for the assumption Of the Inteffs-
Psnesy that Mr.. Bushanan and Mr.. Fillmore
agree in regarding the repeal Of the Missouri
restriction as unwise and unfortunate. The
Union says:
"we have no information to the effect that
Mr.. Buchanan was at any time opposed to the
clause epgrafted upon the Kansas Nebraska
act for the express repeal Of the Missouri res
friction; but if he was, We are very sure his
opposition was not to the repeal of that res
friction We know that many democrats pre-
ferred the original Kansas Nebraska bill as
introduced by Mr.. Douglas. Whilst that bill
contained no clause repeating in express terms
the Missouri restriction, it contained in specific
language the non-intervention principle of the
ComprCmise Of 1850, which necessarily super
seeded the Missouri restriction. The legs i effect
of the original bill was precisely the same with
that Of the bill as passed after inserting the
clause expressly repeating the Missouri res.
friction. We preferred the original bill, and
objected to the amendment in the shape in
which it was first offered-not because we were
opposed to the repeal, but because the original
bill, by necessary implication. effected its
repeal. and did it by applying to the Nebraska
Territory the same principle, in the same Ian
gusge, which had been applied by the Com
g 60 L.
New Mexico"
TurningtoM Mr. Fillmore's position the Union
says:
1t will be clearly seen that there is
marked difference between him and Mr. Buch-
anan, not only as TO the repeal Of the Missouri
Compromise, but as to the true import Of the
Compromise of 1850. Until the recent speeches
OF Mr.. Fillmore at Albany and Rochester, he
was supposed to have approved the Compro
mise of 1850 as containing principles which
furnished fixed and permanent rule for the
settlement of the slavery question in regard
to all Territories. In his message to Congress
In December, 1851, he said expressly that he
regarded the compromise measures of 1850 az
" q tnal settlsme't Of the question. But he
now says that he did not mean that thew were
final settlement as to any other Territories
than those of Utah and New Mexico In other
words, that the principle of these measures
was not intended to be the rule for any other
Territory except that specifically embraced
by the Utah and New Mexico bills -
The IHteifigeneer, in answer to the enquiry
