Mu. Fillmore. —Thnre are many eit-1
izcits who have admired Mr. Fillmore
as a Whig, but who will not support him !
us a Know-nothing candidate. The Bos-I
ton Daily A ivertiscr, an old Whig paper,
thus speaks of him, and we venture to
say it is the sentiment of many old lino
Whigs:
“Our regard for Mr. Fillmore has
been for him as a Whig, not as a mem
ber of a seerti and oath-bound pvJitical
sorirty. We have looked upon him as
the consistent supporter of well known
and sound political principles; not ns a
member of a party whose policy it is im
possible to define. If therefore it shall
prove true as we regret to find it is very
confidently stated, that Mr. Fillmore has
entered a Know-nothing lodge and pass
ed through tho three degrees of the se
cret order, taking the incident oaths and
obligations, we submit that he lias for
feited tho respect of the intelligent and
honest people of the United States to an
extent that will make his election impos
sible. We are reluctant, however, to
believe that this is tho case ; but until
this point is settled we can form no opinion
and propose no lino of conduct for the
campaign. It would give us great plea
sure to support Mr. Fillmore; but we
must know what has become of his Whig
principles before we eau ugree to support
him. If lie has lost his principles, we
have not lost ours.”
There is no Middle Ground.—There
is no sounder or more ably conducted
journal in the country than the Register,
published at New Haven, Connecticut.
In a late number of the Register we find
the following plain, noiuted advice as to
the duty of all true patriots at the pres
ent crisis:
“Iu the coming election every voter
must take sides for or against the Con
stitution of bis country —for or against
the rights of the .States—for or against
‘popular sovereignty,’ which underlies
our whole republican system. The Dem
ocrats have tho affirmative side of these
questions—tho Rlack Republican-]lin
doo-Abolition faction the negative.—
There is no middle ground, lie that is
not for his country is against it; and no
sensible or patriotic man will lie found
occupying a neutral position in such
times as these, when faction raises its
hydra head, and all its snake-coils arc
hissing treason against the peace of the
Union! No man need beguile himself
with tho idea that ho can properly stand
midway between the contending forces,
not content with the position of either,
and irresponsible for the result! lie
must art, and with one or tho other of
the two opposing forces. The Democra
cy stand on the broad platform of the
Chiton, making common cause with all
Us friends, in every aeotion of tho coun
try, and is tho only national platform
presented to the people. Tho opponents
of tho Democratic party are of ail char
acters und shades—of all stripes and
colors, men of wrong principles and of
no principles, the corrupt, the fanatical,
and tho disappointed. Their success
would he a disaster, probably irrepara
ble. Their course is directly calculated
to destroy all fraternal feeling between
the North aud South, by a system of in
termeddling with tho domestic affairs of
the latter, in which they have nooonoeru,
and which they could not improve, if
they had the power. They are warring
against the right of the people of the
territories to determine their own insti
tutions—a right which we in Connecti
cut claim for ourselves, and ought wil
lingly to concede to others. They are
stirring up strife in the land, and dis
sentious iu communities whoso interests
arc tho same, and alike depending on
the prosperity of the Union.
“ The issue is too plain to be avoided.
Ihe very fact that all political 'soldiers
of fortune’—all tho ‘fag ends’ of fanati
cism and cupidity—are banded together
against the Democratic party und the
plainest obligations of the constitutional
compact is enough to point every patri
otic man to the position he should occupy.
It is tho clamor of a mob for the sacking
of a city—a compact of heretical and
discorduut elements, which can have uo
boud but a common hatred against the
best government ever devised by man.
As we said before, there is no middle
ground in such a controversy. Let every
voter he ready for the question.”
sln. Fillmore with the Pope ok
Rome. —The New York Herald of March
6th has tho following allusion to the
present whereabouts and whatabouts of
the Know-nothing candidate for the
Presidency:
"Making a Lion of Him at Rome.—
In a letter from Rome, dated January
1, wc find the following interesting par
agraph ;
“ Our friends, ex-President Fillmore,
Dr. Foote, and Mr. Jewett, were at the
Church of the Jesuits, and appeared to
enjoy the ceremonies quite as well as
others. The ex-President has only been
here two or three days. Cass makes a
party for him on Thursday evening of
this week. 1 think the Papal govern
ment will make something of a lion of
him, as they did of Mr. Van Huron last
winter.’
“ Think of that! Mr. Fillmore en
joying tho Jesuits at Rome, and the
Papal government making a lion of him.
Would it not be well for Gen. Gustav us
Adolphus Seroggs, who, it is said, ini
tiated Mr. Fillmore into council 177, to
interfere at once for his rescue from the
Pone and the Jesuits of Rome? If they
make a lion of the American nominee,
how can the Americans be expected to
‘rule America,’ wc should like to know?”

On motion the following resolutions

Nothings.
“ We trust the Western World will yet
verify the predictions of its'friends, and
prove an asylum for the persecuted of all
nations.”—Aug. 20, 1788. {To Jos.
MandriUon.)
“ I had always hoped that this land
might become a safe and agreeable asy
lum to tho virtuous and persecuted part
of mankind, to whatever nation they
might belong.”—( To Francis 1 andrr
keinp,) May 28, 17*8.
“ Let the poor, tho needy and tho op
pressed of the earth,and those who want
land, resort to the fertile plains of our
western country, the second land of prom
ise, and there dwell iu peace, fulfilling
the first and great commandment.” —{To
Dart'd Humphreys ,) July 25, 1785.
“ It is my opinion that lady Hunting
ton s proposal (for a large emigration
from Europe to Ohio) would come more
properly before the United States, and
it is iny sentiment clearly that besides
the pious and humane purposes which
are in view, and of which we should
never lose sight, motives of a political
nature should have considerable influence
because such a migration as her Lady
ship proposes must bo an acquisition to
any country.”—Jan. 25, 1785. {To
Sir James Jag.)
“ Sucli emigration besides the humane
and charitable purposes, which would be
thereby answered, will be of immonsc
political consequence.”—Feb. 8, 1785
{To R. 11. Lee.)
“ I conceive, under nn energetic gen
eral government, such regulation might
be made, and such measures taken, as
would render this country tho asylum of
pacific and industrious characters from all 1
parts of Europe, encouraging the culti-1
vation of the earth by the high price j
which its products would command, and
draw the wealth and wealthy men of
other nations into our bosom, by giving j
security to property and its holders.”— j
{To Thomas Jefferson,) Jan. 1, 1788.
*’ I was far from entertaining sanguine j
hopes of succ ss in my attempt to pro
cure tenants from Great. Britain, but de
sirous ot rendering tho evening of my !
life ns tranquil and free from care as the 1
nature of things would admit, I was j
willing to make the experiment ” —July
15, 3707. {To lbs. Strickland.) J
“ Your letter intimating that you had 1
failed in an attempt which had been made !
to import workmen from Scotland equal
ly with that fi r obtaining them from
Holland, fills mo with real concern. Tho
more I consider the subject, tho more 1
am convinced of the expediency of im
porting a number of workmen from Eu
rope, to he employed iu the Federal
City.”—Deo. 18, 1792. (To the Com- '
nussitmers of the Federal District.)
“ Your idea of bringing over High-1
landers appears to be a good one. They
are handy, industrious people, well cal- j
culatod to form new settlements, and will,
in time, become good citizens. ’’—May
8, 1G92. (To Robert Sinclair.)
Sinking Fund ok the State ok Ma
ryland.—By u report recently made to
the Legislature, by a committee, we have
the following facts in relation to the sink
ing fund of the State:
The amount of tho sinking fund, on
the2Gthof February, 185G,was $3,537,-
855 35, and consisted of the following
stocks oi tho State of Maryland, with the
amount of each respectively, viz ;
3J percent. State stock, $159,000,00
4j do do do 22,499,96
5 do do do 2,402,435,59
G do do do 893,919,80 i
Total - - . $3,537,855,351
I lie bonds and certificates which art 1
purchased for tho sinking fund are im
mediately transferred to tho Treasurer as
“agent” for the sinking fuud. They are
then cancelled, by being cut or otherwise
mutilated, and they (together with the
certificates which are issued in lieu of
them) are handed over to tho committee
of the two Houses, which is appointed
at each session to receipt for, examine, j
count and burn them, with such coupon’s
us shall have been received by tlio Trea-!
surer from tho agents of the State, who
pay tho interest on the public debt.
Mulching Fruit Trees.—A corres
pondent of the Horticulturist planted 150
trees in an orchard in very good but
j rutber dry soil. All were planted with
; equal care, but a third of them were
mulched, or the surface of the ground
when planted covered with six inches of
| litter. Those thus treated all lived ; but
! fifteen of those not mulched died in the
j hot dry weather of midsummer.
Lale from Europe. *
Halifax, March 12.—The English
mail steamer Arabia arrived here last
night. She left Liverpool at IP. M.of
March Ist, and mot with no ice on her
voyage.
A despatch received by Brown, Ship
ley A Go., the Liverpool agents of the
Collins line of steamers, dated Glasgow,
February 27th, says:
“ Tho steamer Edinburgh, from New
V ork, passed on the 7th instant, large
quantities of broken ice. On it was seen
a quantity of broken cabinet furniture,
five ornamental doors, with white or
glass handles, a lady’s work box, and
other articles such as are commonly iu
the cabin of a first-class steamer. The
Edinburgh was then five days out, and
iu latitude 40°.36', longitude 45°.40 / .”
The steamer Hermann sailed from
Southampton on the 27th. The Quaker
City (substituted for tho Pacific) had
not arrived out when the Arabia left.
The Peace Conference. —The Peace
Conference at Paris has held three meet
ings. At the first meeting, on the 25th
of February, Count Walewski presided,
and opened the session with a speech.
After exchanging credentials a written
guarantee was signed not to divulge the
proceedings until the conferences were
closed. Tho Austrian propositions were
formally paraphrased as the basis of tho
negotiation.
Rumors, favorable and otherwise, are
abundant, but tho general impression is
that matters have thus far progressed fa
vorably to a peace. It is reported, but}
perhaps is doubtful, that Russia has |
consented to concede to tho required
limitations, but that she will not aban
don her protectorate over the Greek
Christians. The opinion increases that !
immediately after peace is formally signed ■
a general European Congress will meet
to adjust the balance of power.
Franco and Austria arc said to favor
j the idea, hut England objects. The ev- \
ident cordiality existing between France
i and Austria, it is stated, begins to excite
uneasiness in England, and a triple
league between Franco, Austria, and
Prussia is surmised as not an improbable
incident of tho future.
The London Morning Advertiser has a
despatch to the effect that it is not im
probable that tho result of the moves of
the artful diplomatists of Russia may
cause an immediate breaking up of the
Conference. Avery grave hitch had al- j
ready occurred. Though the fifth point
is last it was agreed to take it up first,
and accordingly at tho second meeting it
was submitted for consideration. Orloff
and lirunow objected, and proposed to
refer it to a Congress of all the crowned
beads of Europe, pledging themselves in
j the name of the Czar to abide by wliat
j ever decision might be reached. This
unexpected course produced consternation
at Paris. It also surprised ami alarmed
tho Rritisli Government.
Great Rritain .There is talk of an
early dissolution of the British Parlia
ment or a change in the government.
This rumor affects the funds.
In the Commons Sir Do Lacy Evans
gave notice of a resolution disapproving
of the course of the Government in re
fusing direct offers of troops from Cana
! da, whilst ii was at the same time making
j abortive attempts to enlist men in the
adjoining neutral territory.
The excitement respecting tho Ameri
can difficulties seems to be totally ex
tinct. ’1 he Lord Mayor of Loudon gave
a banquet to Mr. Buchanan, but, being
summoned to dine with the Queen, the i
latter could not be present. The Lord I
Mayor, iu his speech, regretted the ab
sence ot Mr. 8., as tho reception he
would have met from the representatives
of two leading interests in England would :
have proved to him the absence of all
unfriendly feelings with regard to Amer
ica, and tlmt the interests of commerce,
peace, civilization and humanity were
too powerful to permit a collision between
the two countries. Similar feelings wore
expressed by other speakers, including
Mr. Cobdcu and Earl Elgin.

crats of Crawford county, Illinois, met
in convention a few days ago, and ap- (
pointed ex-Govcrnor French 11. Alexan
der und Isaac Wilkins delegates to the '
State convention. Among other capital
resolutions we find the following, which
we heartily commend to our readers:
" Resold d, That wo hold the Terri-j
tories as tho common property of the
whole Uuion, and that individuals from
any part of the Union can emigrate there
to, witii their property of all descriptions,
and there hold it, subject only to the de
cisions of the courts; that wo are in favor
, of the compromise measures of 1850, in
. eluding the fugitive-slave law,and the acts
| establishing the Territories of Kansas and
Nebraska iu 1854.
“ Restlred, That wo view the repub
; lican party in tho North as being wrong in
principle and worse in practice : their doc
trines and teachings are founded upon nn
abstract sentiment —a false sympathy for
the condition of the slave, of which nut
one in a thousand of them know anything
about; that their incessant meddling
with the institutions and interests of the
people of the South is not only unneigh
; boriy, unwise and foolish, but is fast i
; tending to destroy that harmony and
! good feeling that arc essential to tho
maintenance of this Union.
‘ 1 Resolml, That of all the farces ever ;
performed by politicians und legislators,
under all tho circumstances and acknow
ledged opinions of tho two principal
actors, that enacted in the House of Rep
resentatives on the 2d of February, 185 G,
by Giddiugs of Ohio, who administered
the oath to support the constitution of
the l nited States to Ranks of Massachu
setts, is tho most complete, the most
nonsensical, aud, to all lovers of the i
|1 uion, the most humiliating.”

BURG'S SURER PHOSPHATE,
(Dissolved Bones and Guano.')
IT is u settled point with nil chemists and
scientific farmers that Peruvian guano only
supplies about one-half of the ingredients ne
cessary to grow Wheat, Rye, Oats, Corn, Veg
etables, ifec., and that is the reason that land
becomes impoverished nnd exhausted by its
continued application, whereas Do Burg’s
Super Phosphate supplies more than is required
to grow the various crops, and is quite as ef
fective in its action of inducing early maturity
as the Guufio—much more durable and fertili
zing to the soil, and less volatile.
It is adapted for all crops and all soils, as a
proof of which we have testimonials from Ma
ryland to Georgia, and every county in Mary
land, and from Virginia, from gantlemen well
j known as practical farmers, some of whom
have tried it for the past two years with plea
sing results.
11. McGregor, Esq., Prince George’s county,
Mil., says : “Dc Burg is in my opinion far su
perior to No. 1 Peruvian Guano. A small
handfull to each liill produced 300 barrels of
corn on 25 acres of land, that never yielded
more than 8 barrels i>er acre before.”
Win. It. Barker, Esq., Prince George’s Co.,
Md., says: “ I have used I)e Burg on both
Corn and Tobacco and was much pleased with
the result.”
(’apt. Murry Mason, Fairfax, Va., says : 11 1
; gave I)e Burg a fair trial and it fully equalled
j No. 1, Peruvian Guano.”
Andrew Ellicott, Esq., Howard county Md.,
1 says : “I consider De Burg $lO per ton cheaper
and more lasting than No. 1, Peruvian Guano.”
Hugh McCall, Esq., Anne Arundel county,
Md., says : “ I have used De Berg on my corn
: and Spring crops, and prefer it to No. 1. Peru-
I vian Guano.”
i John Hamilton, Esq., Charles county, Mil.,
says: “The result from I)e Burg was fully
equal to my e.\|>octations, producing a fair
! growth on very thin soil.”
Val. S. Brunner, Esq., Frederick, Md., says:
I “ Farmers in this vicinity are much pleased

Maryland and Virginia who have found great
benefit in its application, not only in the growth
of crops, but improving the land quicker ami

300 pounds per acre will produce 35 to 40
I bushels wheat, and 150 pounds, 50 to 70 bush
els of oats: and half a gill to the hill, or 250 to

Competent Millwrights and Millers, who have j
given this article a critical examination are 1
unanimous in opinion, that it is better adapted
for the purpose, intended, than any similar ar
ticle ever brought before the public.
Will also continue to manufacture

attention to Bkach’i Blast Skkd and

It is simple in construction, yet invaluable to
Farmers for its perfect adaptation to the
cleaning of Grain which it docs without a
Screen, entirely by blast, thereby saving small
kernels of Wheat and other grain which would
otherwise be wasted. The simplicity and com
pactness of its structure precludes the duuger
of its getting out of order.
