essens Fillmore's chance of being President. Suppose Buchanan gets all the slave States and Pennsylvania and any other one Stale besides; then he is elected, no matter who gets all the rest. But suppose Fillmore gets the two slave States of Maryland and Kentucky then Buchanan is not elected; Fillmore goes into the House of Representatives and may be made President by a compromise. But suppose again Fillmore's friends throw away a few thousand votes on him in Indiana and Illinois' it Will inevitably give these States to Buchanan, which will more than compensate him for the loss of Maryland and Kentucky; it will elect him, and leave Fillmore no chance in the House of Representatives or out of it. This is as plain as adding up the weight of three small hogs. As Mr. Fillmore has no possible chance to carry Illinois for himself it is plainly to his interest to let Fremont take it and thus keep it out of the hands of Buchanan. Be not deceived. Buchanan is the hard horse to beat

nd. Henry winter Davis, was the response. David Davis, I see, has been posting you up on this question, retorted Lincoln. He has Davis on the brain. I think Maryland must be a good State to move from. The President then told a story of a witness in court in a neighboring county, who on being asked his age replied, Sixty. Beng, The court knows you to be much older than sixty. Oh, I understand now, was the rejoinder; you're thinking of those ten years I spent on the eastern shore of Maryland; that was so much time lost and don't count. Before Mr. Lincoln's departure from Springfield, people who knew him personally were frequently asked what sort o to Mr. Lincoln when you return to Springfield, and tell him I expect him to come on to Washington as soon as he is ready. Say to him that I'll look after those Maryland and Virginia rangers myself; I'll plant cannon at both ends of Pennsylvania avenue, and if any of them show their heads or raise a finger I'll blow them to hell.
