made JAMES BucHANAx President Of the United

lifelong support, he refused any longer to sup
port his Administration. For this he is de-

FoRyEY is Editor of the Philadelphia Press.
He sees in The result OF. the recent elections,
what the Charleston Convention should look
upon as so many instructions, to guard it against
the folly of giving way TO the demands of the
South. He sees in these results the hand-wri-

of the South has not entirely terrified the North.
Will that convention take warning from these
bitter lessons and return to the honest path
