What Democratic press in the North dares
dispute the statements Of Sanford Harrisong
He has "iust returned from tour through
central and western New York"--h had
"found the party to which he is attached 1.-THE De
| mocratic party) most treacherously betrayed by
those who have hitherto ranked as it's leaders
he found that those leaders have almost in a
body gone over to Fremont" and he assures the
country that, "the masses have followed these
traitors, and the result Is TIKI DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Verify the South lean upon rotten staff,
when they depend upon the Rynders, Coch-
rane, and Marcy Democrats of that States
Mr.. Harrison appeals, in language Of honest
patriotism, to the National Democrats Of New
York to SAGE that St0te, by casting their votes
for Fillmore and Donelson And what is his
ultimate purpose? Why, to throw the cleo
ton into the House of Representatives lie
admits that if New York goes for Fillmore,
there is possibility that Fillmore might be
elected by the people, and he is reconciled to
that possible result, by the consideration that
he bnotos "Mr. Fillmore to be true to the
Union of these States" But he thinks the re-
suit of throwing tho election into the House
would be the election of Buchanan, o, that Mr..
Breckenridge would be the next President, as
he would be the choice Of the Senate
Several things are clearly shown by this let
ter, to wit: First, that the writer is devoted
friend and advocate Of Buchanan: Second, that
he is satisfied New York will not go for Blu
chanan: Third, that there is danger Gin his
opinion) of the election of Fremont, unless the
Northern Democrats unite upon Fillmore
Fourth, that the only chance for Buchanan is
to throw the election into the House of Repre-
sentatives; and lastly, that as Mr.. Fillmore is
| true to the Union, Mr.. Harrison would be
reconciled to his election, if perchance the peo-
pie should elect him. Mr.. Harrison has made
clean breast Of it,-he has spoken from the
heart.
| And now, in view of the facts and arguments
presented in the above letter, how does the con-
test stand1 What are the relative chances of Fill
more and Buchanan at the NorthS Most un-
questionably Mr.. Fillmore is the stronger man
of the two-and this stands confessed, by one
of the most intelligent and patriotic friends of
Mr.. Buchanan, who has just made tour
through central and western New York, and
found that the former Democratic leaders had
gone over to Fremont, and that the masses had
followed the traitors What, then, is the duty
which the South owes to herself? If the Dem
ocratic leaders of the North have gone over to
Fremont, will the South still listen to the syren
song of the Forneyites, that the Democratic
party Of the North is the only party which is
sound upon the question of the rights OF the
several sections of the Union
We grant that there are sound, national,
conservative Democrats in the North And
where do they propose to 60? Into the ranks
Of the sound, national, conservative American
party, and aid in snatching the country from
the grasp of sectional party 1t now stands
an admitted fact, that Buchanan cannot carry
the North--it stands confessed by patriotic
friend Of Buchanan, that the only hope of pre-
venting lin his judgmenD the election Of Ere
mont, is for the National Democrats of the
North to cast their votes for Fillmore and
| Donelson
1t is true, that coupled with the desire to
defeat Fremont, Mr. Harrison seeks, in the
mode which he urges his friends to adopt, the
election of Buchanan By the House, still the
prominent and unquestioned truth stands out
in bold relief, as the basis of the proposition
which he makes, that Ar. Buchanan cannot
carry the North, because the Democratic lead
ere haze proceed to be traitors,-7hav gone o0er
to the Republicans, and hare carried the
nsasses Nth them!

men Of the North, the South, or the West,
