He per- anally twilling tbrmcCt any sacrifice." J j A writer Southiioxj in the Charleston I Courier, urges, ably and eloquently, the i election of Mr: Fillmore, and in the course of his remarks says: W "I had it from hjs.pwn Jipf, and that at a time when, he had passed ; from a- sup- cessful administration .of the, National Government tp the retirement and prir vacy of private life, and when , he was withott a prospect Of even a wish, for ! denomination or restoration to thcPrcsi- and Southwestern States ; that he believ ed the. so-called freedom of the "blacK and colored population in. the non-slave-holding States to be a cheat,, and that slayer- Tvas the best condition of the African race in this ci untry, .best both for the black race and the white race, and that the Union could only be per petuated by a faithful observance of the constitutional rights of the South and by non-interference' with slavery, on the part of the non-slavehokling States and of the general Government ; and his con victions were greatly strengthened by this Southern tour, which brought him in contact with, and made him an eye witness. of the working of our domestic institution." . - When to this we add that Buchanan's l.omi nation was Northern in its influ ences, the whole South, with the excep tion of two or three, States, vpting a gainst hini in a body up to the last bal lot: And that Fillmore's nomination tvaSj, uncontradicted on the testimony oC Air, Alarsh, one of the nominating body and who has since abandoned, the support, of him on thai very account, " demanded by our Southern brethren, who would onlv consent, even to his nomination upon forms that drove most of the North ern delegates out of the Convention." We ask of every patriotic, Union-lov-Southern man, whatever name or party in ordinary limes or for ordinary issues he may choose to sustain, to sup port now in a crisis ..where', everything dear to himtisat. stake, the man,fthat not only &nows how to defend, as lfvas already defended, the rights ofthe;South ern States and people equally 'with, the Northern, but also how to respect their feelings, and holds them equally with tiie people of the North, entitled to equal . j and fraternal regard.
