Col. GRooME AND Ills NoMIN0Rs.
MEssRs. EDIroRs:-- have just read in
this mornings paper, the correspondence Of
Senator Pearcc and other gentlemen, inviting
Col. Groome to run an independent candidate
for Governor. These gentlemen, or nearly
all, voted for Mr.. Buchanan last fall and
thus identified themselves with the DcmocrA-
tic party, and are so considered by the latter
on the ostensible ground that Mr.. Buchan-
an was favorable to the South, and opposed
to the Republican party. The friends of
Henry Clay and Mr.. Fillmore contcndcd that
his antecedents on the Slavery question put
him on par with Van Burcn and he being
the real author OF the Bargain end Cor,up-
ton Islander against Mr.. Clay, put it out of
the question for any true patriot and lover
Of his country, in the Old Line Wle ranks,
tanned by Gen. Jackson's and MIR. Clay's
written testimony. The first is now being
proved by tlc course Mr. Buchanan is pur.
suing through his Governor in Kansas, by
which, IN less than twelve months, he mM
lose lie snppoH of ecery Southern State J.
MARK THE PREDIcrIoN!
Mr.. Groomc. with the most of those who
are now recommending him. still wish to hold
on to the name of "Hhs," yot,d for Mr..
Buchanan and are responsible for his llca-
cherry to the South in his present course.
Most of those gentlemen who have signed the
invitation are among the well known fihy
tribe of our State and others are very weak
minded and fro,hy al the best Of times.
You would do GOOD service to the public of
Mary at this time, if You would rc-pub-
lish from the Southern papers the indignant
denuncia,ions against the trrachcry of the
Administration to the South and also the
letter of Senator Mason, Of Virginia, in which
he approves Of the course o! the "So'dh." one
of the leading journals in Richmond, which
is engaged in this warfare also see the

si>sippi Era, and Il host of other Democratic
Journals in the South all rowing up the ADJ
nni>tIation in fine style, and all showing
that at the ensuing session Of congress there
is to be a complete breaking up of the DEM
ocratlc party, which, no doubt, will cnurc to
the advantage Of the Old Wing party, or the
American party, whose principles are now
having justice done to them by those who are
taking ground against the administration.
The row among the Democracy in their
late city Convention, by which that holora-
bic body are reported to have made frcer use
OF the windows to effect their escape, than
they did of the front doors, will he found to
be a mere circumstance to the rumpuS tina
will be kicked up at Washington the ensu-
ing winter.
Old Line Whiys lot one who has never
wavered, urge upon you, to hold fast to your
integrity, and touch no impure thing which
may dcfiled by the faint of modern Democra-
cy. MIR. Groome is their adopted candidate,
and viii; be their tool. and his success would
only enure 10 their benefit you will bs
mere cats-paw in their hands. Touch not
the bait set for you.
