LETTER FHOHIBSTATOll PEAKCE, mt Maryland, m the Polities of the iajr* Washington, July 31, 1856. My Dear Sir: You ask what part I UMtn to take In the coming Presidential election, and what 1 think should be doue by old Whigs who havo never been at toched to any other party, and who do not desire to enter into new political con uexions. I am well awaro of the cmbunuisa- meats to each persons which attend a choice among tue candidates for the Presidency now before the country. In my own case this embarrassment is sensi bly felt My inclinations point one way, a sense of the duty arising from the pres ent dangerous condition of domestic poli tics leads mo auother way. My past relations, political and person al, with Mr. Fillmore, the confidence 1 have always reposed in his integrity and ability, tuo wisdom of his Administra tion, and the conviction I cutertain that bO is a just national man uud free from sectional prejudice, would induce iuc to S refer him to his competitors. Neither o I object to the Sentiment of American nationality, properly limited and restrain ed. Indeed I think that our present sys tem has made American citizenship too cheap. But I did not approve the mys terious system under which the American .party, of which he is now the representa tive, was organized; the oaths administer ed to members upon initiation, mid the discipline of the order, by which secre- sv and obcdieuce were secured. How fur ml this has been dispensed with I do not know. The original plan of their organi zation I could .not but condemn, as 1 do thejadoptftn of any principle which •ftjtmds a rule of political exclusion upon a diversity of religious faith. ,T d in * modified i However these respects their plan may now be, it is Jiot necessary for me to en quire. The Northern wing of the party came into it, as I think, with purposes very different from those entertained by the rest. They adopted it as a cloak to schemes which all of us in Muryiuud con demn and detest. The necessary affilia tions of that wing of the party were with the anti-slavery men; and accordingly wc find the mask now tlirowu oft* by the most of them, and see the development of their plans in such a measure as the per sonal liberty bill of Massachusetts, which nullifies a law of Congress, violates tiie constitutional guarautec for the recovery of fugitive slaves, and creates the fiercest and most dangerous discord between the North and the South. Their members of Congress have for the most part been consolidated with the pernicious party miscalledJRepublican, and many of the delegates "to their Presidential Convention have deserted to that, j. motley alliance, whose triumph would be the saddest calamity that ever befel our Union. The comparatively small portion of the Am erican party which remained after this transfer to the anti-slavery men,and which has nominated Mr. Fillmore, is without power to elect him, even with the assis tance, of Southern Whigs or National Northern Whigs. These, however great their personal respect for and confidence in Mr. Fillmore, are under no party obli gations now to give him their support, seeking that he has become a member ami accepted the nomination of a party which repudiates the Whips ; and, while they would be willing m a contest with their old opponents to stand by all their politi cal opinions to the last, they find ample reason in the present condition of par ties, in the political anarchy which pre vails, and in the fear of a sectional and anti-slavery triumph, leading to ulterior consequences of the worst sort, to consider whether, it is not their duty to sacrifice all personal feeling and party prejudice for the sake of the Union, and to sustain the nominations of the Democrats as the only means of defeating the schemes of the mod agitators who rule the Republi can party. The ^contest, it seems to me, lies be tween Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Fremont. Mr. Fillmore’s friends indeed claim a great reaction in his favor ; but 1 have taken much pains to ascertain what his strength is in the free States, and so far l have not been ablc 4 to i satisfy*myself that he can carry a single one of them. His wise and patriotic conduct while President; which recommended him. so strongly to the Whigs of the South, is regarded by the majority at the North as a fatal ob jection to him. It is not moderation and conciliation they desire; they think, as one of their leaders said, that the time for compromises has passed. They want, in the President, an instrument to punish national for this purpose, and lie must in deed be creduloas or sanguine in the ex treme who supposes that the politicians who have misguided and inflamed the Northern majority will abandon their de signs, and renounce the spoils for which they hunger und thirst just at the moment ' when, for the first time, they are confi dent of the success of the one und the en joyment of the other. Mr. Fillmore’s strength lies in the Whig States of the South. If all the Southern States should give him their votes, lie would fail in the election without such assistance from the free States as it would be vain to look for. The choice, then, is between Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Fremont, and what Maryland Whig believing as I do can hesitate ? I.ain not’so unjust as to charge all the , Northern men who join in the support of Mr. Fremont with being abolitionists. There are men among them whom I hold in much respect, while deploring the er ror’ of judgment Jinto which the have - fallen; but the most active und influential of-their leaders are men who, from per verted judgment or inflamed passions, or, . wlmt is worse, from deliberate calculation, have ^determined to build up a sectional party, reckless of its peril to tht Union, once so justly^'valued, but now estimated far less at the North than at the South. Mr. Grccfy is at this moment more poten tial with his party than uny other of its members. He has Uie benefit of Mr. G hiding's co-operation. (Jovsrnor Chase, Ur.

Wo do not indeed nud ull these objects laid down in tho platform of their party; and there uro men associated with them whoso designs by no means extend so far, and who, if they know tho probablo consequences of tlioir success, would recoil from tho evil associations into which they liavo fallen, flat, then, moro moderate men are uot tho master-spirits in this league of agitation, and will ho powerless to stop tho mischievous measures which 1 think ccrtalu to follow the buoocss of the combinations which they aro now aiding. The tone of the press iu their interest, tho speeches of many members of Congress, and of tho amateur orators of tho party, all cvinco a determination to uuito ail the peoplo of the free States, if possible, iu fierce and relentless hostility to those of the South. It is the strife of sections iu which they hope to succeed ; and in what would their success result? Not In forming a more perfect uuiou, not iu establish ing justieo or insuring doinestio tranquillity- all of which are among tho declared objects of that Constitution whicii Washington uud the other fathers of the republic gave to us ; but in the jealousies, discord aud hatred insepara ble from a party "characterized by geographi cal discriminations.” It was against this that the Father of his Country warned us in his Farewell Address—the last legacy of tho spot less patriot to tho country he hud loved and served so well. Some years ago, (in 1830) when the danger of this sectional organization was less than it is now, Mr. Clay gave ns his advico in the fol low ing words: "Abolitionism should no longer bo regarded as an imaginary danger. The abolitionists, let mo suppose, succeed in their present uim of uniting the inhabitant* of l he free States as one man against the inhabitants of the slave Slates. Union on one side will beget union on the other, and this process of reciprocal consolidation will be attended with all the .violent prejudices, embittered passions, and implacable animosi ties which ever degraded or deformed human nature. Virtual dissolution of the Uuion will have taken place, whilst the forms of its exis tence remain.” * * * "One section will sland in menacing and hostile array ugninst the other. The collision qf opinion ivtll soon be followed by the clash oj arms. I will wot at tempt to describe scenes which uow happily lio concealed from our view. Abolitionists themselves would shrink back iu dismay and horror at tiie contemplation of desolated fields, conflagrated cities, murdered inhabitants, aud the overthrew of the fairest fabric of liumuu government that ever roso to animate tho hopes of civilized man.” It will be said, perhaps, that this ► is mere declamation; that Mr. Clay’s fervid spirit gave too warm coloring to tho picture; but we need only remark the pussionato violence which characterizes men who have lately yielded to this sectional phrenzy to satisfy ourselves what is the temper natural to such organizations. At the Convention in Philadelphia, held by those who nominated Mr. Fremont, a conspicuous and distinguished gentlomau, heretofore con sidered moderate und conservative, made a speech, in which, amidst cheers nud cries of "good,” he spoke ns follows: ‘They (meaning those who appointed the mem hers of the Convention) ask us to give them a nomination which, when put fairly before the people, will nnite public sentiment, and through the ballot-box, will restrain, aud repel this pro-slavery extension and this nggres Bion of the slaveoeraoy. What else are they doing? They tell you that they are willing to abide by the ballot box aud willing to make that the last appeal. Wo will drive it back sword in hand, und, so help me God, I urn w itb them.” It is true that the author of these remarks has since publicly avowed that ho alone is re sponsliblo for this rhapsody. Put it cannot bo doubted that the feeling which prompted him was the same which animated tho preacher who proposed to supply tho brethren of Kan sas with bread aud powder too, aud which lias stimulated other preachers and their congrega tions to subscribe Sharpe’s rifles as tho most efficacious intsrument in the adjustment of the controversies in that Territory, which all good men deplore,^however they may diirer as to the causes of the unhappy anarchy which pre vails there. For my&elf I acknowledge my duty Sto (redress, so fur as 1 can, all the real grievances complained of in that region; and 1 have supposed that the bill recently pass ed by the Senate was well calculated to remedy them, because it proposes to cuact that no law shall be made or to have force of effect iu said Territory which shall require a test-oath, or oaths to support any act of Congress or other legislative act, us a qualification for any civil office or public trust, or for uny employment or profession, or to senrejus a juror or vote at an election, or which shall impose any tax upon or condition to the exercise of tiie right ofsulf rage by auy qualified voter, or which shall re strain or prohibit tiie free discussion of uny, law or subject of legislation in the said Terri tory, or tiie free expression of opinion thereon by tiie people of said Territory ; and secures, as far us law can secure, tlto operation of the public will in the formation nf u State govern ment That this bill was sinco'rely meant to c-ITect its uvowed purpose I am quite confident; and I believe that there are conservative men at the North, who do not yield to prejudice or passion, who will credit this assertion. Un fortunately they are uot tho majority. At all events, in the most of the free States the masses of the Republican party arc led by men who do not mean to be satisfied with any legislation which is not to result in platting the Government under their control; by men who say that tho framers of the Constitution "made a compromise that cannot be mention ed without shame;” who say of Mr. Fillmore, iu allusion to his signing the fugitive slave bill, "better fur had ho never been born—better for his memory, and for tho name of his chil dren, had he never been President;” who de clares that bill to be "one of the immortal cata logues of national crimes,” and that he who signed it thereby "sunk into tho depths of in famy;” who pronounce tho fugitive slave to be "one of the heroes of the age',” and tho mas ter who dennud-i him a "vile slnvo hunter,” whom all men should look upon with contempt, indignation, abhorrence; men who do not re gard tho Constitution, und Uie laws made in pursuance of it, as (the supreme law of the land; who disregard the decisions of that high tribunal whose olllee it is to decide constitu tional questions; who claim to setup theiriudi- victual opinions against tho oilicial ones of the judicial authorities, mid refer their obligations, not to the instrument which they have sworn to support, tyhich is ut onto tho bond nud the principle*ol Union, but to some "higher law,” whose foundations are to he found iu their own fanatical imaginations. Somo of the leaders go further -till, und con sider slavery a wrong so transcendent that it must not only bo limited to its present hounds, but must Ik* abolished altogether. We see tiie effects of this in the increasing restivene.isof n part of oar*population, iu the often repeated escapes or our servants from tho mildest form of servitude ever known, and in the ready ac ceptance of tlto recommendation not to hesi- ■t I not on) to Influx nt many and the i tate at theft, robbery, and murder, if noi d bo, to nccomplishjtlioir flight. From tills condition of things we can expert no relief If the nntl- slavory party succeed in the election of Mr- Fremont. To defeat their nomination seems to mo to be our first duty nud greatest interest, and therefore I am ready to adopt that candi date who appears most likely to accomplish that purpose. I add, as showing the extreme dusigus of the anti-slavery zealots, the follow ing remarks, reported ns having been made lately by Mr. Weudoll Phillips. Speaking of the Republican party, he says: "it is the first fractional party ever organized in tliis country. It does not know* its own face. It calls itself national; hut it is not nutionul— it is sectional. It Is the North arrayed against tho South. Henry W’ilsou said to mo, 4 Wo must got every Northern State in order to elect Fremont!’ It was a distinct recognition of tin fact Unit tiie Hopublicau party it a party of tiie Fortlijpledged against tho South. Theodore Parker wanted to know once where disunion would begin? J will tell him—just where tlmt party decides ; Unit is, a Northern party against tho Southern. J do not cull it an anti-slavery party ; It has not risen to that yet. Its first uistinclrccognioti was Rink’s election.” I have no idea tlmt this is to bo considered ns showing the general purpose of tho Repub lican party, but 1 urn well satisfied that such opinions uro growing in the North, undor the constant teachings of such apostles os Mr Philips, and this speedi shows the tendency of present events. I have boon politically opposed to tho Dem ocratic party for so many years Hint I cannot without reluctance contemplate tho necessity of Hupnorting their nominee. Yet it must ho admitted that he is a mnu of abilities and largo i while experience; that lie ims bean just to the loutli, though not assuming to bo a Northern man with Southern m indplcs; tlmt ids incli nations uro generally conservative; That ho numbers among tho prominent supporters many — ebimcUr, ico of their par- miry .t Urge; 9| Jlons to him aro ranch-railed onby hit op- lonents In tho South. It has Iraca allegod that jo countonaueod and promulgated the charge of oargatn nud corruption agnlitet Mr. Olay iu tho election by the House of Representatives iu 1825. I should denounce him for tills as readily and us severely os any one if l thought this al legation Just. Rut l remember that thU cliargo was made agaiust Mr. Clay without any direct tes timony) until 1827, when tho Garter Beverly letter led to Mr. Rnohanun’s being named os a witness ; and that he then promptly denied the statement that ho was rolled on to prove, uud. at the risk of losing Gen. Jackson’s favor and tlmt of his party, exonerated Mr. Clay. From tiie letter which ho then published 1 extract the followiug passago i " I owe it to my own character to rnnko an other observation, had 1 ever known or even suspected that Gen. Jackson believed i had been sent to him by Mr. Clay or bis friends, l should have immediately corrected his erroneous im- S resslon, and thus prevented tho necessity for itamost unpleasant explanation. When the editor of the United States Telegraph, on tiie 12 h of October lost, asked me by letter for information on till* subject, I promptly inform cd him by the returning mull, on the 16th or that month, that I had no authority from Mr. Clay or his friends to propose any terms to Gun. Jucksott or his friends in relation to tkoir votes, n«r did 1 ever make any such proposi tions ; and that 1 trusted I would be as incapa ble of becoming n messenger upon such an oc casion ns it was kuown Gen. Jackson would be to receive such a message. I have deemed it necessary to make this statement in orderto remove any misconception which may have been occasioned by the publication In the Tele- gnrpli of my letter to the editor, dated tiie 11th ultimo”. Again, iu 1523, in a speech delivered iu the House of Representatives, Mr. Buchanau de dared that ho had uo knowledge of tho bar gain nud corruption charged on Mr. Clay These disavowals may lie considered as merely cold justice to tho great and incorruptablo Whig leader, but’ surely tney contradict most flatly tho cliargo of bolng his "traducer and dofawer.” If further proof were needed it may be found in the followiug remarks re cently made iu Kentucky by Mr. Jut. R. Clay, his son : "Mr. Clay theu proceeded to urge upon his old Whig trieuds, tiie companions and constit uents of tits father, to rally around tlmt / bannor which he had spent his life In upholding—the banner of the Union. He was ready to follow the Whig standard us the Douglas tollowcd the heart of Bruce—as long as it waved. Rut that Hag was no longer to be seen on the battlo field. It might yet bo unfurled. After death there was the resurrection. Rut at present there was no Whig organization, and the only party of tho Union was that of which Uuchanan and Breckinridge wero the candidates. "Mr. Clay reterred to the attempt to Impli cate Mr. Duchauauin the charge of bargain and corruption. On that subject he proposed to take the testimony of his own father, aud he read from Mr. Clay’s letter to show that Mr. ltucliamui had conducted himself iu that afTair as a man of truth aud honor, lie should be lieve what his father said before others. Re sides the evidence he had read, there was other testimony bearing on the same point. In feel ing and eloquent terms he referred to the heavy weight of that charge against his father, und how gallantly and bravely he had borne it. Thank God, it died before his father! aud now he was proud to say that there lived not the man who would whisper it. • Rut Mr. Buchanan was freo from all connexion with the matter. "Mr. Clay concluded with an eloquent appeal to his fellow citizens, especially to the Old Line Whigs, to give their cordial, support to tho Union ticket—to Buchanan and Breckinridge.” The next great objection is that Mr. Bu chanan would be unsafe iu his management of our nfl’uirs. I readily admit that I do uo like tho Ostcnd paper, and I do not approve certain rcso lutlons adopted by the Cinuinnatti Conven tion, notwithstanding tho unanimous opposi tion of the Virginnia and Maryland delegates, und 1 believe of others; and if he should adopt the aggressive policy supposed to be prccrihed by that paper und the resolutions, I should be as ready und as earnest in my opposi tion to him as any ono, but lie Is a man of known cantiou, which, with his intelligent com prehension of the true interests of the United States, and the responsibility of the Presidential office, which lie could not but recognize, would forbid his urging the country upon a course of aggressiou inconsistent with the spirit of our Government, faithless to treaties, violative of the rights of other nations, and destructive of our own pence, honor, aud concord. I know that tnauy or the leading men of his own imrty 4 ore sound and reliable in this respect; and 1 believe that their conservatl e intlnenco would harmonize with his own disposition. 1 am the more assured of this because I observe that in his letter ofaccccptance therejs no recognition of the resolutions, (which were not considered by the Convention as forming a part of the platform,) bbt, on the contrary, u prudent and conservative tone, which met with the approba tion of even the judicious and experienced Edi tors of the National Intelligencer—themselves, par excellence, tiie foes of all Hlllbiisteriiig. Iu an additional article noticing Mr. Bucliai letter of accsptancu, they|-:aid: "We may say, however, that Mr. Buchanan’s official letter of acceptance, while not express ly repudiating tiie extreme and exceptionable doctrines foisted iuto the Democratic confes sions of faith by the Cincinnati Convention, does yet, by its spirit aud tenor, inclino us to hope that he means, if elected, so to construe those doctrines as to disurm them of their mis chievous significance und evil tendency. In- wed wc cun give no other meaning than this to Mr. Buchanan’s declaration when ho sayi that he accepts tho ‘resolutions consulting tuc platform of principles erected by the Conven tion’ in tiie same spirit as that which prompts Ida acceptance of the nomination Icudcred to him by his party, namely,a desire so to dis charge the duties of the high office rto which he aspires as ‘to allay domestic strife, preserve peace and friendship with foreign nations, and promote tho heat interests of tho Republic.’ ” At present tho prospect is that the conserva tive Whig vote will ho so divided m to defeat u popular election aud throw tho decision upon the House of Representatives—ut all times an event to lie deprecated, but nt this period pe culiarly pernicious and dangerous, aud threat ening tho rudest shock to our system. What the result will bo 1 will not venture to predict, but I will say that 1 do uot sec tiie least proba bility of Mr. Fillmore’s election by tho House of .Representatives. I think, therefore, it would be the part of wisdom und patriotism iu the Whigs (by which I mean those who have affiliated with no othor party) to throw their votes for Mr. Buchanan as the strongest or the cuujjidates opposed to tho,Northern sectional party. This they may do without renouncing their old political faith, without stain of honor or suspicion of apostaoy. The motive being the integrity of the Union, the defeat of a party which is founded on geographical discriranations amt bound together by dangerous sectional Hchemesthe act will be vindicated byjdissntcrest- ed patriotism. For rny part, I shall not abjure my political creed, and, having in view but tho one object which I have stated, 1 shall hold myself ready to take any other course which may bo necessa ry to effijot that bbjoot. Should tho hopes of Mr. Fillmore’s friends bo realized ; should it appear tliut lie is moro likely to carry the groat body of the patriotic, but quiet people, who gencarlly come to tho rescue in times of public peril; that he is, in short, the best able to subdue this storm of sectional passion and prejudice, 1 shall rejoice to see him again filling tho clmir of State. Rut 1 will notaffect an unalloyed gratification ; for 1 cannot forget that lie is Uie candidate of a party which had proscribed Whigs who aro not members of "the order”—of a party which boasted that it hna risen on the ruins of the Whig and Democratic parties, and which has pronounced both of them corrupt. Whatever tho result, I shall bo content ir tho dangerous excitement which threatens our peace mid union can be calmed down, so that tho extremo opinions which have their roots in prejudice and passion may wither away. Then u liberal fot-lwaninco und kindly toleration of different sentiments may resume tlioir inflncnce. If this cannot be doqc, if the South und the North are to regard oho another as enemies, then sooner or later our "house,divided agaiust itself,” must fall.

Witness the use to which some of those arguments have been ap plied by Buchansn’s opponents iu this State. Wo have before us it speech of Ueuton, in which ho stoutly deuius this charge.

Here lire some extracts: "Ho would only say that hu was opposed to the movements hi favor of Fremout lor u whole year before you knew anything about it—be fore yon cveu thought tlmt Fremont would be a candidate.” This docs not signify very much. Ho may have very well been opposed to Fremont’s can didacy. Aud yet uow that lie Is a candidate desire his election. We quote a little further, simply remarking that as Benton has been introduced as the wit* ness of Mr. Buchinmn's opponents, they of course will not bo permitted to gainsay his tes timony. Here is what he says of the Demo, cratlc nominee and his prospects in Missouri. It wilt bo observed that he speaks in the third instead of tiie first person. "Benton*’—not I.” Benton hud refined to b* a candidate uuti he saw that a man would be nominated in Cin cinnati who would be President of tbe whole country, not of a section or faction. He hud known Mr. Buchanan long—they had entered Congress together—and felt assured from Ids knowledge of Ills character that he would uct for the good of tho whole country, if elected ; and of his select ion he felt no earthly doubt. The letter of Ids acceptance confirmed his opinion. In Unit letter Mr. Uuehumui pledged himself to use nil the powers of the office if lie should be elected President, to restore harmony which existed before the fatal apple ol discoi d —in tiie shape of Slavery agitation—lmd been rolled iu among the people. He (Renton) had contradicted several lies against ldtnself—lie would uow contradict u lie which wa* circulated against Buchanan; and that was that lie had said if lie had a drop of democratic blood in his veins ho would let it out. Buchanan never said so. Twenty years ago he (Benton) asked him about that story, and Buchanau told him that there was not a Rv nrdftr Hnn Tnlin E Ward word of truth in it.

Polk, Democrat, has iu five Counties, 1,000 majority. Beuton’s prospects are declining. Missouri bus elected two American, and six Democratic Judges. Kentucky—The Democrats liuve carried Kentucky by several thousand majority. Three cheers for Kentucky I The telegraph, which usually does the host it outi for the Americans, concedes a Democratic victory in Kentucky by several thousands!! That is enough—und more than we dured to hope. Lust year the Know Nothing majority for Governor was 4,403. The Democratic gniu since that timo has probably been from five to ton thousand. In November, when Buchanan and tho galluut Crittenden (Kentucky’s favor ite son since tho death of Clay) are up for tho suffhiges of her citizens, she will unqueatlonn* bly go Democratic by a large majority. authority for contradicting it. Fears were expressed that the vote of Mis souri would be lost to Buchanau, as there were two Buchanan electoral tickets iu the field. There was no danger. I f the other State ticket which pretended to be for Buchanan, gut fewer votes than tho ticket which was headed by Benton, let its electoral ticket be withdrawn, and if it got more let it stand, and the origual Buchanau electoral ticket would be withdruwu There was uo danger, then,for even if his ene mies, who voted seventeen times against him in the Convention insisted upon keeping their ticket in the field, after they were beaten in August, tho people would cry it down, for they would not permit such an outrage to Ik* con summated. Florida Volunteer* Inspector General Churchill fenders 4 a bad accouut of tho volunteer force iu Florida. Most of their time isspent ut their homes, and they are no mure effective than if never muster ed into tiie public service.— ICaihington Letter. We should like to know wlmt iicamut tbe General renders of the regular " force in Flo rida.” Just about the only successful lighting done uud captures made, since the commence ment of hostilities, of which any "account! ims reached tiiesc parts, was the work of tiie voluntcccra. We think well of the regular army, and despise tiie demagogues who liuve attempted to array popular prejudices ngaiurt it aud its officers. Rut there is ono service for which wo are convinced that it is ill adapted. That is fur fighting Hcminoies amid the swamps aud morasses of Florida. " As well set a wag gon and team t * catching mbits” is the simile of tiie late Guv. Duval-and an upterone lie never uttered. Disintkguation Inevitable.—TIip Balti more Patriot says: We contend that nothing but Hie choice of Millard Fillmore, whose conservatism, modera tion, Impartiality, firmness of character, ami statesmanlike qualities,which lmve been proved by past experience, can save the Republic from disintegration. If tlmt be so, then "disintegration” is inevi table, for Mr. Fillmore stands uo more chance of an election than the editor of the Patriot. Geumans of Syuacuse.—At a meeting held last week by the Germans of Syracuse, it was Resolved, That we the German Democrats of Syracuse, do most heartily mid warmly approve ot the nomination of James Buchannu and John C. Brcokiuridgo for tiie offices of President uud Vico President, as well ns the nominations nude to-day in our State Convention, and that we will support the said mnn illations with all our strength aud influence. .1 bushy in a Blaze.—The Jersey Blues, are wide awake. Never probably since the organi zation of political parlies in this country, lias there been so determined and active feeling displayed as may now lie witnessed by our Democrats friends in New Jersey. They uro at work evdry where. They allow nothing to interfere with their political duties, but plunge into the vely midst of the political maelstrom, uud hurl defiance at ull foes. The Fillmore men are no where, the Black "Republicans” are k cowcd, while the Democracy move along with tho force of u mighty steam engine, carry ing fear and dosolution into tho ranks of all foes.—New York News, Meeting of Council Inst Night. A petition from Young America Fire Com pany, No. 5. praying to have their engine, Ac., of|which they Imd been deprived by tiie action of|tho Savannah Fire Company, for alleged In subordination, restored, came up for ouuHidera tion, whereupon, a preamble, setting forth the state of the matters in controversy, introduced by Aldennuii Basinger, was adopted, with tho concluding resolution, which is us follows : " Ue it therefore Resolvud, Tlmt this Board is satisfied with tho courao pursued by the 8a- Yaunah Fire Company, and tpat the petition of tho Young America Fire Company be permit ted to lio on the table.” The Hon.
