Truck and Dieker,

The attempt al the Democratic party 10
employ the Fillmoarnersin the stool pigeon
department OF politics, still goes on. The
Commercial Advertiser, very uelphlan
oracle, waEs It's old head, and sees things.
The sham Democratic papers everywhere
are rs soft IS silk and "a mild as milk upon
their old enemies, the unmitigated, original

Two years ago the Boston Post would have
come down with all the force OF It's feeble
ness upon Fillmore meeting in Fanenli
Hall: il would have laughed At Lord and
Lunt. sneered al Stevenson, and booted al
Hiiiard. Now Il Is as complsisant as thes'
terheld. and is more afraid OF hurting the
feelings Of Wings Of eminent gravity, than
it is Of preserving its consistency or OF stick
ing 10 its principles, Then il yon turn TO
the Fllmoreen papers, yon will not find q
word against Jamie p Buchanan. The con.
ductors Of these journals know how to APP
preciste politeness. and are tully up in the
amenities Of shoulder.and-elbow ftictiOn.-
And as the papers 20, SO go the pstrlarchs

IS a Democratic Ex-Governor, and who is
marked NIX by the estimation OF that par.
