4 SILLY STORY.
ASHLAND, July s, 1856.

In lie laguuing ot the cenvaso the New l}ork Hr-
yaiL was confident that buchanan could he defeated
by a coalition of all the elements OF opposition" Sub
sequent developments having demonstrated inc abIti'
ty Of the Democracy - ifiulGpa over The united
Know. Nothing ana Black Republican forces, the
M,a}d takes another tack, and is how attempting 10
intla,ne discord and dissension i'll the Democratic
party. To this end draws upon tbs fertility of It's
fancy for the suggcstium ul plot Oh the part of GER
tain Democrats oi hc South to compass the defeat
of buchanan and the election OF Hferkinrd,,e to the
Presidency. The H'rd!I accuses ole OF the editors
of this paper by name, Of completely in the intrigue.
The readers of The EHq"ircr want no assurance oi
the good faith, zeal and energy with which il sup
pnrts Mr. Buchanan; and we atter ourselves that il
is because Of the efficiency Of is abors in the inter
est OF the Democracy, that the H'r"'d undertakes Ia
excite suspicion Of lis course II ia attempt to
lence an annoying battery.
or course the ifrq'G'S story is siiy fabrication
In the Democratic party there IS no element Of oppo.
si,;on to Mr. buchanan. So far otherwise that we
NAV confidently affirm, that other candidate was
ever supported with greater Zeal and unanimity. The
resut of the election u this State and in the South
will show how much truth there is in the H"rohS nb.
surd story.
