Mr. Shultz, - giving certa n reasonsfor doing so. In
this circular Mr. Buell ' I mt's name heads the list, a

he entreated the Federalists of his - State to rally every'

he so furiously assailed) -Without voluntarily showiug.
the -advocacy of Pure . pentocratie, . principles and,
abandoning his federal views. Where can be found
a scratch of the pen since. he joined 'Pe Democratic,

In the hey-day of Mr. Buchanan's federalism, he
delivered an oration one die 4th of July, 1815; in the
Lancaster county court-lauSe—an oration which he
and 'his friends would Ilive blotted from existence had
it been in theirpower.l It still stands as a monument
of black cock:ke federal ism, and will forever stand in
judgment against him -: An extract of that Litmus
speech published faith time, we have in our posses
sion, and now give. its publicity. An attempt was
made at the. time iliVati. first published, - to suppress
the edition of the-lid.ptT—so alarmed were the friends
of Mr: Buchanan ; 'that it might hereafter stand in
judgment acainit hint. But the designs of his ft lends
rpartiallv failed, for copies got out. . .

I Tate interest to - the public good"—being Washing-
I , -bin's-•" degenerate successor," . and supporting the
i government- during the war with " feeble hands,"
i, and with other hostile 'expressions id omme genuit
',
His bitter inveetire against the war of 1812, in this
•
oration, deserves a ct i reful perusal: No man could
have been a greater e'lem•V to that •war than James
Buchaenai, and atu time when " high national . rights
and honor - were involVed." Where was Mr. Buchan
an's patriotism then? lit was on the side of the ene

Madison,. in 'defence of this war, and Agirinst.the in

smiles and• hawk; and: scrpentlike enlists her in his
favor. Shade of Madrion ! cariany - thing exceed this.
piece of unblushing,effrontery ! Mr. Buchanan is as
rank and hits • r a Nativist as ever breathed, if we may
judge from his language. In fact he Is the that man
that uttered such anti-American and anti Democratic
doctrines. The Native American Party of to-day hold
less hostile views•of forekgners than James Buchanan
did in 1815, - Mr. Buchanan was the first Nativiit hi
the country. Let the people know that, and bAng
lain to account. : .Letr i gre foreigner who makes this
country his itoine-.—arrven Imre by oppression and

transpired during 'the plot, the following significant
morceats is worthy of note, d which to this day has
never been gainsaid. Here tis free from denial :
"'Some time in January eighteen hundred and

spit e'er the certainty of the election of his.favorite,

asked, ',How could be hay one mote distinguished
thaiiifiat of Mr. Jefferson, i which were both Made

equally:eminent men ?" M M. Buchanan replied; - that
'be eln,dB not go out of thi room for a St.cretarY.of

Clay) playfully remarked, that ' he thought there was
no timber there fit for a cabinet officer, unless it were
Mr. Buchanan himself,'•
" Mr. Clay,

The electors of are State o Pennsylvania met at Dar

and Dallas. .That, and that alone was their legitimate
duty; when it was finish 4, their official capacity

ceased. But the ardent f ijnds Of James Buchanan
pr'esented a recOntmendaton, - to be
. signed by the ,
twenty-six - electors, as elec ors, to be laid before thel
then elect President, Jam's K. Polk, asking him to '
i
appoint James Buchanan Secretary of State. This
was asking that which no body of electors had a right
to do.. The- friends of Mr. Buchanan knew full well
it was a stretch.of.preAative unheard of before, but
straining every point, they eventually prevailed, much
against the inclination of many of the electors ; to have
the recommendation signefl by all save one. That

as their candidate; chiefly because his name,

to be a different affair from that of the mid

The Enquirer, not content with charging
the wife of .Col. Fremont with - wantof filial
obedience, caprice and insubordination, and
openly accusing his Mother of a bieach of Chas, , '

the following chivalric manner : . •
" Marriage has dwindled to a mere. teni,po._
