The true Democrat., 1856-07-01
A Strong Array of Facts.

The New Orleans Bulletin, (od-lne whig) in an article speculating upon the probabilities of Mir. Fillmore's acceptance, takes cursory review of the present condition of the Ameri- can party, grouping together an array of facts which it were we'll for every Southern man to study, weigh and pontier We give them in the Bulletins own language:
 "Bnt will Mir. Fillmore accept the nomna- ton which has been rendered him, not, we are sorry to say, by national and harmonious par tv, but by fractional part of it, faithful them selves to their principles, and true and loyal to the institutions of the country, but connected by the loosest and most trangibIe bonds possi. bIe, with a geographical branch of the same party, sympathising with them in one single principle and that alone, and which may be comprehended iu the tavorte maxim, "Ameri- cans to rule America?" Upon all national is- sues they are directly at variance, hopelessly irreconciable The Northern wing of the American party, taking them collectively and as t body, are as much imbued with sectional ism, and antagonsm to slavery, as are the re- publicans, with whom there Is perfect iden titv of opinion on all national questions. Is there any one disposed to doubt 1t? We re- fer him to the present relation of parties ln all the Eastern States. See how faclle has been the gravitation of the American party'of those States into the slough of irecsollSm. The American State Council of Vermont, which has just been in session, formally determined, by resolution to unite with the republican party in the ensuing State and Presidential elections. New Hampshire and Maine have at this time virtually but two distinctive political parties, the democratic and the republican-the latter including the Americans, as the greater does the less In the former State the American State Council assembled at Concord Cn the 9th ult., and elected delegates to the freesoil American convention to be held in New York on the 12th of J une and unanimously resolved to endorse the action of the seeding delegates from the Philadelphia convention. In Massa- chusetts the legislature of 1855, every mem Der of which was a Know Nothng save one, passed the personal liberty bill, nulifying the fugitive slave law, and the legislature of 1856, which was also American by large majority, has refused to repeal it. In the higher branch of the same legislature resolutions in favor of the admission of Kansas under the free state constitution, and declaring its speedy admis- sion as free State measure of tine first i'm portance to the welfare of the territory, and the Tranquility daad honor of tue United States have been passed by vote of 26 to ?.
 In Connecticut an election has just taken place for United States Senator, and both par ties, the Americans and republicans concen- tratea on the same candidate, Dixon, and elect. ed him. In Rhode Island, Hoppin was elected, d few weeks ago, Governor, by the fusion of the republicans and Americans. In the great city of New York there is only one journal that supports the American cause, and endorses Fillmore, 0he New York Express,) and the championship of that press is with phase or qualification unacceptable to a large portion of the people of the South-the restoration of the Missouri compromise. Throughout the State of New York the party is becoming gradually sectionaized; and on the 12th instant the con- vention is to meet in the city of New York, of seceders from the American national conven- ton, for the purpose of nominating candidates for the offices of President and Vice President of the United States The call is addressed to those who are opposed to the establishment of slavery in any Of the territors that are ed by the Missouri compromise" It is signed by twenty individuals Representatives from twenty States and Territories,) and the list is headed by the name of Anthony Colby, pro- minent politician of New Hampshire.
 In Ohio the last State election almost disln- tegrated the American party. Chase, the abo- liton candidate for Governor, was elected by tremendous vote; the democratic candidate keeping we'll up, while the American candidate was almost distanced. In Indiana fusion convention of Americans and republicans has just adjourned, after making nomination for Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The Pre- sident on taking his seat, addressed the con- vention, and in his speech we find the fol- lowing significant paragraph:
