Extract of letter from an intelligent
and well informed gentleman, dated
SHELBYvILLE, Sept. 9th, 1855
am determined to DO all | can in my humble
way, to advance the cause of Fillmore and Donel-
son, on whose success | think such deep and vital
interests depend. 1t is clear to my mind, that the
election of any sectional candidate, can promise
nothing but evil to the country, and hence, the
strong claims Of Fillmore and Donelson, the only
national candidates, upon the people of the Union.
The path Of d0ty for every patriot and true lover Of
bis counrv evidently leads in the present crisis to
the. elevation of Fillmore aud Donelson.
In this section of our State, our friends are firm
and determined, and you will hear good report
from old Bedford in November. The game of brag
by Buchananites has been played out, and has hurt
no one in these parts. The cry of " no chance for
Fillmore" is still being rung; but to no effect The
little boy who passes the graveyard in the shades
of evening turns to Uhialing H. keep up his courage
and drive away his fears: 60 with the Buchanan
ties who cry out mo chance for Fillmore" pro
fess to know something of the state of parties in
believes Fillmore to be the safest, soundest, and
most reliable candidate in the field, votes for his
ticket, you NAV rest assured his majority will be
overwhelming Old Bedford did well last summer
and We expect TO do much better in November
YOU may set her down for gain over Gentry's ma
iOTtY.

his children should meet to renew their devo-
ton to the Union and to take counsel for the
veal of the Republic, and with song and shout
and jubilee to give evidence of the holy zeal of
their patriotism.
Tomorrow there is 10 be tremendous meet
ing of Fillmore men at Railway, New Jersey,
sixty miles from this city. Thousands are pre-
pairing to go from here, and would that my
business permitted me to attend it. Com.
Stockton is to be the principal speaker, but
there will be numberless others, and the de-
mOnstration is expected to have fine effect in
that State. Our friends in this city are conf
dent of the result 10 New Jersey.
The remains of the Buchanan party in this
city are looking with ghostly hopes to the re-
suit in Maine next week. They have abandon
ed every other corner of New England, but
the rssher ones speak of carrying Maine.
They may do so for aught know-but if this
last stronghold surrenders the forlorn
hope is routed-I am at loss to conceive
where next they will look for comfort. If they
should fail there ought it not TO teach the South
that voting for Buchanan to defeat Fremont is
sheer lunacy2
AsI passed through the West there was ru-
NOR that the democratic candidate for the
Vice Presidency would commence series OF
speeches in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, but il
seemed so improbable that one who is represen-
tah tho c,,ul nf obi.,olrt, ooul1
by party necessity, he reduced to such degree
that it was not generally entertained. | see
from the papers however, that such is the case.
Is not this evidence of the desperation of the
democratic managers Full well do they know
the condition of their prospects north of the
line, and hence these unusual efforts, and for q
Vice Presidential candidate, unbeconling ex-
pedients, to make ground. But it will be OF
no avail The die is cast. The days of de-
mOcracy are numbered.
Our friends in this city are regarding the
contest in Tennessee with tile intensest inter-
est. They are confident that she will do her
duty. Al the meeting of the National Club,
few evenings since, l gave through the
President, the substance OF my information
relative to Tennessee, and it was received with
such thunders CT applause, as would have as
tonished even Tennessee Americans. 1t is the
opinion here of all parties that Tennessee will
give her vote to Fillmore. May it be so. If
the noble ard patriotic people Of that gallant
State will not stand by in this dire crisis, and
lend helping hand to the conservative men OF
the North, in their endeavor TO stem the tor
rent of seciionaisn which has made such
Roadway here, we have indeed fallen on evil
times. But | AIN wearying you. You will
hear from me at some point in New England.

GALLATlE, Tenn, sept. Z, 1896.
Messrs. Hatton and Keeble addressed large
crowd of citiz ms here yesterday. We have
read and heard much about the gallant manner in
which Hatton bore himself in the canvass, but W.
feared-doubted that so young and unpractised
man could not compete successfully with the dis
tins nished Rutherford county politician Yrster-
day they had fair fight. | saw it all-heard all
that said, aud tell you with truth and homes.
" gazing me full in the face, HattOn is beyond
question an overmatch for him. The main point
ol K-eble's speech was the "fu-on OF the Fillmore
aud Fremont party in Indiana" Falsehood as
we'll as truth has its Effects aud so did this odous
lie TO extent but unlike nth il will not stand
the and scrutiny Of investigation or the open
truthful face OF fact; for the shameless false
hood xposed and dragged into light by your paper
Of this morning You may be assured that Hatton
il dong able work-work which is bound to tell
in the coming election. This, sir, is not mere idle
asserton-it is truth Sumner will sarely ~ the
day comes give Fillmore large gain on Gen.
try's vote. Yours &c.

NORTHERN DEMOCRACY WooIHG THE ABoLIrIoNs
Isrs.-A few days ago the Cincinnati Enquirer, a
rabid Buchanan organ, announced the following !:
In the Warren Congressional District orr friends
have nominated Durbin Ward, Esq distinguish
ed aud eloquent Old Lie Wing, for Congress. This
is one of the strongest Abolition districts in the
State, but we look for great diminutiOn in the
jority against US.
It will be remembered that very recently the
leaders of the Democratic party in Warren went
over into the freesoil camp, horse, foot and dra-
goons 1t seems that the Democratic party Of that
district is become totally abolitonized The Cncin
matt Commercial saws:
Durhin Ward Esq, has been for years known as
an Atoiitionst-a sort Of strong minded female in
pantaloons who regularly caught and broke out
thick with all the prevailing political epdemics OF
the times, and went mad after the last new inven-
ton in morals and religion Anti Nebraska carried
him 10 the Legislature, where he went in for wo-
mans rights.
Aud here is a proposition for fusion which ap.
peared last month in the Detroit advertiser, Ere.
mont paper
MR EDITOR: take the liberty. at the sugges-
ton of numerous Democrats, to address you, as 20
the feasibility fgetting up Union ticket on which
as near % NAV be, the nominations shall be divided
between the Democrats and Republicans.
In the local elections in New York last spring 10
a number q counties the democrats and Black Re
pubicans fused TO beat the Americans. Southern
Buchanan men say nothing about these things
they have only eyes. and ears, and tongues, for
what they rrgari as offensive in others.

Mr. Buchanan and the Old Line wings.
1t seems that the Democratic candidate is dispos
ed to feel. at least, to pretend EEL indepen
dent of the old Wing party in the present canvass
He no doubt assumes it TO be fact and which is
only reasonable enough that no true Whig no hon
est Wing, who retains the smallest yestge Of res-
pect for the memory of the great leader Of the par
ty, the noble hearted Clay, can ever vote for man
who was his bitter calumniator, ard who alone of
all his political enemies had never the manliness or
magnanmity to do him justice
IL seems that Mr.. Buchanan has recently been
enjoying himself at place Of fashionable resort in
Pennsy lvania Bedford Springs, and that while there
be was heard to use the following language TO a
Democratic friend He was under no obligations to
Old Lane Whigsr The friend to whom this len-
guage was addressed given the following explana-
ton Of this extraordinary remark Mr. B. was re-
marking that the Wing party dissolved, and
that Old Line Wings had 20 candidate to vote for,
consequently they vote for him. and that he
was under no obligations to Old Line Wings for so
doing"
The Wing paper published in the town of Bed
ford puts the following pertinent interroeatories to
| the Old Line Wings of the country They are well
put and address themselves to the pride the amour
propre the honest aud patriotism of any true and loyal
Wing who is not painfully in search of a reason for
abandoning his principles and party, 10 The des
| perate hope of obtaining Office and prlfcrment
What think We, Old Line Wings, of this insoent,
presumptuOus language of the Democratic caadi-
date? The man who was always you most bitter
unrelentlng prosecutor, tauuntirg you with the
mark that you have no party of your own, ana con.
sequently that you must vote for him. and that he
is under no obligations to Old Line Wings for so
doing?"
What think you. Old Line Wings, Of James b.
| chanan, the foul mouthed author of the "bribery
and corruption" charge your old political idol,
| Henry Clay, and who never had the manliness, in
| the lifetime, since the death of the gallant old
Harry of the West" to do him Justice taunting
! you with the remark that your party is dissolved
that hereafter you must vote for him, and that he
is under no obligations to Old Lipe Wings for so
doing?"
What think you, Old Line Wings, of James Bu-
chanan, who in 1874 took the stump and proclaim
ed TO the people OF this State that James Polk
was better tariff man than Henry Clay and there.
by caused the defeat OF that great statesman tell
ing you that you have no party of your own, and
that you must vote for him. and that ''he is under
no obligations to Old Line Wings for so doing?"
We think after all this, after all the political sins
Of James Buchanan, after all his hatred TO Wing
measures and men, that no Old Line Wing will Sc
bcittle himself to vote for his old arch enemy
! OF one thing We convinced, that any Wing who
| will now vote for James Buchanan, knowing a. he
does, the man never good old Whg.-N. O.

The Indiana Forgery Again.

1t will be seen by reference to the
etter from Gallatin which we publish this
morning, that Col. K EEBLE made use OF
the Indiana forgery in late speech at
that place. We readily acquit him Of any
Intentional Misrepresentation of the posi-
ton of the American Party of Indiana,
but we think gentleman of his high char
acter ought to be sure that the authority,
on which be proposes to base a serious
charge against political opponents, is worthy
of credit, before he prefers the charge.
We observe that the forgery has also been
given prominent place in the Chattanooga
advertiser, Knoxville Standard, and the
Shelbyville Constitutionaist. The latter
journal rolls it as "a sweet morsel under
its tongue" and addresses the Patriot
few interrogatories which might have some
point if the statements upon which they
are predicated lcsrs only true; but as they
are false, we must beg our good friend
Baskette to correct his errors, and be little
more cautious in future. Ifhe will examine
Indiana Fremont and Fillmore Journals,
he will discover that the Black Republican
and the American parties have separate
and distinct electoral tickets, and that they
are not fusing and are not likely to fuse.
The Fillmore Americans intend to stand
by their ticket, aud, in view Of the nerve
and activity they are evincing, the Patriot
repeats its words of July, Look out for
good tidings from Indiana"

FRIDAY, SEPT. IL, 1866.
The Letter from New York.

We call attention to the letter in our
columns this morning from New York
From the character of the writer, and the
confidence we repose in his opinions, coup
led with the corroborative testimony OF
everything which reaches us from that
quarter, we have no doubt it is true re-
fex of the state of things there.
Bargain, Sale and Corruption at WasIs-
ingtOn.
The Union and american, in an article
on the subject of the election of President
by the House of Representatives, says:
"The evil effects of defeating an election by
the people, and throwing il into the bands OF
the politicians that assemble al Washington, is
too we'll understood TO require comment. l.
has been deprecated BY every leading states
man To whose wise counsels the country is in
the habit of turning for instruction. We are
earned against 40 By the experience Of history
We are cautioned against such policy by the
suggestions of our own common reason. Coz
Tuptions exist at Washington in all parties II
cannot be otherwise. Private interests ana
personal ambition are constantly az war with
the public veal. Bargain, sale and corruption
are the legitimate fruit u Congressional cleo
& ions and Congressional po1er.
We have been trying in vain to get the
Union and American to state whether, in
its opinion, Gen Jackson had any grounds
for the charge of bargain, sale and corrup-
tion which he made against Mr.. Clay. IN
the above extract it betrayS great want
of confidence in the integrity of members
of Congress, seemingly regards Washington
as the hot-bed Of corruption, and refers to
the experience of history" as indicating
the 'evil effects Of defeating an election by
the people and throwing it into the hands
of the politicians that assemble" there,
bargain, sale and corruption" being the
legitimate fruit of Congressional elections
In all this we have, what we take to be a
true index to the views Of the Union and
american touching the election of John
Quincy Adams by the House of Represen-
tatives, and the appointment Of Mr. Clay
as Secretary Of State. Democratic "his.
tory" attributes these things to bargain,
sale and corruption;" and, accepting the
experience" of that History" as correct,
the Union and american would warn the
country against the example. 1t believes
that the charge against Messrs. Clay and
Adams was true, or it would not, we feel
assured, impeach the high character of the
popular branch of the American Congress.
If we are wrong in these conclusions, it
can set US right in a few words But, we
have no idea that it will deny that we are
right. And, we would ask Clay Wings,
men who really respect the memory of the
departed sage of Ashland, can any of you
listen patiently and approyingly to the
appeals Of men who think thus meanly Of
your old leader? If you can, we mistake
the metal of which you are made.
