In 1940, when the Whig party came at last to power, Fillmore secured the place of Chairman of the Ways and Mean Committee, which became very important as a panic had recently dismayed the country and tbe tariff was to be revised. He crawfished on the light of petition and made Van Buren his model. Fillmore was one of those little-nosed men who do not see through millstone, but he scrubbed his teeth white, smiled on tbe evil and the good, kept out of controversy and was considered handsome. "He is never misled by the promptings of his heart," aaid one who flattered him, "there are few better looking men.

In hi temperament he is phlegmatic." VICB-PRkSIDBlfTIALITTEa. lie began to play for the Vice-Presidency In 1840, a favorites step of New York politiciansGeneral Clinton, Burr, Van Buren, DeWitt Clinton, Tompkins, Fenton, Morgan and Wbeeler. He ran against John Davis and Theodore Frelinghuysen In 1844. At that time politicians wrote long and flabby letters declining things; the public taste was worse than it Is or had been on literarv matters. Fill.

more declined himself into the nomination for Governor on such a Childish platform as this: "Tbe dauntless vindicator of tbe outraeed rxmnlar mif. frage in the case of the insulted broad seal of New Jersey in 1840, the valiant and victorious leader of the patriotic Whigs of tbe immortal Twenty-seventh Congress." After reading: this stuff, one is recon ciled to onr President's letters on bed-quilts. Defeated for Governor, Fillmore wrote to Henry Clav: "I reallv am unmanned. I have no ennrntre or resolution. All is gone.

The Abolition ists and foreiEU Catholics have defeated us In this State. I will not trust to myself to sueak of tbe vile hypocrisy of tbe lead it Abolitionists now. Birnev and his associates sold thenuelrea tn Locofocoism. and they will doubtless receive their reward. ah is gone, and nothing has happened to, shake my confidence in our ability to sustain free Government so much as this." Old Ambrose Spencer also said that "the Ger mans are as ignorant as the lazzironl of Italy." Fillmore was called the "dough-face" after this, by bis opponeuts.

His winu of the nartv was called the Silver Grays, as versus Seward's Woolly-Heads. Reward, meanwhile, courting; the foreign vote, bad proposed, as early as 1940. to divide the School Fund, at the suggestion of Archbishop Hughes. The little "Native American" party o( 1814 elected James Harper Mayor, and carried the City Council of New Vork. There began the Anti-Catholic policy of Harper 4 Brothers' publications.

Three years after his defeat Fillmore, who had "retired from public life forever" three times, was elected Comptroller of the State of New York. and ex officio a member of the Canal King. As Comptroller be made a renort which suRscsted tne exclusion of bonds and mo- bulges from all subsequently organized bonks and the substitution of State and National stocks for them in all banks. This was in 1847 thirty years ago. "Persons engaged in banking," he said, "should be taxed like all other citizens." It muat also be remembered, as merely incidental, that Fillmore put In the original appropriation fur Morse's telegraph.

A would-be futinv fool, oroba- blv father of one of these newsDaoer humorists. moved to add 160.000 for "animal magnetism." From the Comptrollership Fillmore attended the Vice-Prealdent's throne. Only God's hidden decree was between him and the Presidency. CACH TATL0B VERSUS FILLMOBK. Zach Taylor was a good deal like Grant and Haves in bis way of taMng tbe Presidencv.

He said: Whether they call their Convention Wbiir. Demo crat or Native. I should accept either Convention's nomination and esteem it an honor. But I insist on the condition and my position on this point is immutable that I shall not be considered the exponent of their party's doctrines." He afterward said: "lam a Whig; if elected, I wonld not be the mere President of a party. I would endeavor to act independent of party domination.

1 should feel bound to administer the Government untram-iaeled by party schemes. But the.Dersonal opinions of tbe Individual who may baDDen to ocenpy the Executive chair ought not to control tne action oi iHinxress upon Questions oi domestic policy." How much have we Improved on this in thirty years? It is the plainest rightfulness: a people's axecuuvo, woo wiu not try to anecs legtsiauon, who will not veto willfully, nor abet mere party cneuaiuK. General Taylor wanted Abbott Lawrence, of Massachusetts, to be Jnt on the ticket for Vice-President Lawrence at first got 109 votes; Fillmore. 115. On the second ballot the politicians who did not want two Zack Taylor's on the ticket nominated Fillmore.

Martin Van Buren bolted General Cass and elected this ticket "The ignorant Abolitionists" had made "the doughface" Vice-President Fillmore wrote to a friend: "Really, these Southern Whigs are noble fellows. Would you not lament to see the Union dissolved, if for no other causa than it separated us from such noble and high-minded associates?" His speech, when old George M. Dallas escorted him to the chair of the Senate, waa almost a model of Win. A. Wheeler's last March; like Wheeler, be had never been a Senator.

FIIXMOBE'S CHABTACTCB. Fillmore was neither unselfish nor high In motive, bnt he waa in all the relations of mere contact a gentleman. No egotism, nor eccentricity, nor ideality, nor touch of nature, made him either frank or offensive. But being handsome, cool, and amorous, a nice walking gentleman in public life. he was in no danger ot becoming a fool.

He could make two wives happy, and two parties preud. dignify a prejudice with bis leadership of It and play the silver rivet between the Whig party and Slavery. He was much of the time unconscious of his frivolous. relstions to real things. Gentlemen, in that day, despised Abolitionism as a coarse, ln- lermeaauag, vituperative sees oi nypocrisy or I fanaticism.

But the opposition to slavery, MIT the State of New York, was from the bottom upward: it arose, naturally. from a tree-minded people In opposition to the rrowtn of an aristocracy on an enforced and cheap labor. The Yankee-born, frontier-born, manly-poor classes disliked slavery because they regarded it as a sham, an unfairness, a necessarily sensitive swaggerer. The negro merely they aid not like, except when he showed some Individual heroism. but tne siave-catcner ana tne mourning parasite ot a distant despotism tney vomited oat nothing made William H.

Seward a great champion of tbe limitation of slavery bat rerpect for bis humble nets tors wno were so Beany on tne subject so unconsciously Intrepid about it He discovered this when, by a mere accident he became, like Salmon P. Chase, a counsel for a slave. Botn these men perceivea at once, irom tne public interest in tbe cause, that there existed a rich, unexplored field of political capital in the slavery subject Aud it is the glory of democratic society that they can propel statesmen, so-called, out of their burgher and farmer society; that the talk of old men and thelreons on things aggressive and unequal will compel talent to lead the opposition and put it among the cause eeUbrtt of the political world. Fillmore always mistook tne great cause tn nis notion that the clear, the well-behaved side was tbe nrooerside. He thouehttbat interference with slavery or interference for it were both disagreeable and unnecessary.

Such clothier's minds ahem I were never able to meet sucn an unexpectea ana fabulous question as California arising, clad in gold. andsaying, "Let me in "Uoa Diess my souii eiuaimtu too penect gentleman, "your attire la unexceptionable. But where is your lady?" it naa oeen tne gentleman ly ubdii ior every new, free state to come to the Admission nan wita a utile creoie or quadroon State on his arm. Michigan had led in Arkansas, Maine led In Missouri and Iowa led in Texas. But here was California coming in without a lady, ine energies oi Slavery naa not oeen virile enousb to fiud her a partner.

Mr. Fillmore qnailed before the Korthern roar, "To the deuce with a Let the young man in the Union!" Mr. tjiav io nis vt nur nature: "I've sot it California shall come In. We'll or ganize two future slave States out of New Mexico and Ut-ih. And until they come to age and puberty, we will let what slave States we have catch fugitive slaves all over the Korth.

Fellows with lassoes run them np and down the Northern town. But to make things look tasteful, the gen eral slave trade shall stop in the District of Colum bia." This waa tne last great periormance ot nr. llbe Mr Pinmnm vnle line Clay, who Whig." FILLMOR END THE PAKTT. General Taylor died at this period. President only sixteen, months.

He was sixteen years Mr. Fill more's senior. He was a stout-neartea, master minded. Dure and resolute man. The party he stooped to bad not sufficient moral training to deal with the grave eventualities of Zacbary Taylor died, like General Lyon, on tbe earliest battle-field of the ineradicable contest Tbe polite and pleasing politician of New York then mounted the Presideu't throne, and sought to pour cologne on the billows.

Taylor had been a great roughs honest captain. He saw bis chance at the Presidency ne wouia nave seen in a uauie the kev of the notation, and be bluntly served notice on Scott aud Clay that he should not consult their wishes or priority of claim. He served as blunt notice on the Whig party that he knew his availability, and would not become their rres-trient nmler an contract In revenue for Taylor's success over them, both Clay and Webster opposed bis policy and threw themselves Into the Southern camp. Klilmore became tbe pliant yet delighted creature of the policy of so much talent General Taylor had been set up by the Seward interest in New York Fillmore had gone on the ticket to mollify the Anti-Sewarditea. Seward ran the patronage of New York under Taylor.

As soon as Fillmore took the: Presidency be turned out tne sewara-Taylor Cabinet put the disappointed old Webster In the State Department and leaned fondly on Clay. Stanley Matthews. Lewis D.Campbell.Henry Wilson and John C. Hamilton, son of Alexander Hamilton, were of fifteen men who met in tne hau where Taylor bad been nominated, after the Whig Convention adjourned, and repudiated both Taylor and Fillmore. The policy of General Taylor naa oeen to ist tne eople of the new States make their own institutions and come into the Union wtth welcome, without regard to anv eautlibrinm or balance of power between slavery and freedom, and be asserted his personal policy to be the suppression of tiaunii anil aeeeaalon.

"I shall stand by the Union and maintain it to the fall extent of tbe obligations imposed and tbe power con lerrea upon me by tne Constitution." Not a President dared to say that much for eleven years min a blunt soldier in the Chair, using such languatre. the probability oi secession was anticipaica. But Mr. Fillmore shared the notion that it was offensive for a President plainly to any that be would maintain the Government with all nis power. Tbe idea waa current that we were to save the I'nion bv admitting- that we mtst not tight for it Merely admit that it was a week, girlish kind of thing, and could not be maintained if struck, and then, of course, it would beastrong IrJ addition, concede every respectable principle, liberty included.

for the sake of union, ana it wouia oe stm stronger. So the Fillmore Administration hastened to make the concessions, and the fueitlve slave rapidly idealized the North. In Massachusetts tbe Democrats sent Sumner to tbe Senate fn order to elect their Governor, BoutwelL DEFEATED. Fillmore expected fully to receive the next Whig nomination, in 16.VJ, and Webster wrote tbe platform. Clav was dead.

Fillmore led off with 133 votes, Scott with 192 ana Wcbstor with 29. On the fifty-ninth ballot Scott supported- by the sn till a very Whigs and by tbe example of the military availability of Taylor, took the rag off the bush. That killed Daniel Webster. Stephens and Toombs, of Georgia, and other Fillmore men repudiated Scott The Whig party carried only four States in the Union. The last dosa of compromise, com-oiind-d by Clay aud administered by Fillmoro ami Webster, killed the Whin patient A Dcrao- oratii-Pmfiii-nt.

Stephens, another Whig, was made Confederate Vice-President and he did his best tn injure that cause without knowing it, meiely by indulging iu Whig: strains of Kneech. "Millard Fillmore." said one of his neighbors to me, "was a cold, stolid, handsome, attitudinizing man, without a particle of genius. He could not make a speech without committing it to memory. He was penurious and selfish, and won almost all nis nonors by looking wise and saytiig nothing. He owed his early promotion to Anti-Masonry.

Did be know that among the Democratic leaders of that State were men who were idolized by the people? Did he know that among them were some of the finest orators and keenest reaaoners In the land? Did he know that some of them could apeak three times a day during the whole campaign and appeal personally to every man in the State? Oh, yes! he knew all that, but money made tbe mare go, and a largqf portion of the people were so impoverished the first cable had -ceased to throb.

Public exuite ment bad grown wild over tbe mysterious workings oi tnose nasninc wires, cnarmea tor moment only, and when they stopped working the reaction was intense Sneers and scoffs urose from 'every part of the land.

In five mouths another cable was shipped on board the Great Eastern, and this time the wires were streched from continent to continent Then came the never-to-be-forgotten search In four ships for the lost cable in tbe trackless and devouring deep. in the bows of one of those vessels stood Cyrus Field, day and night in storm and foe. sauall and calm, patiently watching the quiver of the grapnel that wiu dragging twp miles down on the bottom of tbe immeasurable deep.

At length the spirit of the brave man was answered and rewarded. After all these thirteen years of almost su perhuman struggle, we may safely say that Cyrus W. Field is one of the most InteretsUna and remark able men of tbe age. toynge to you. Mr.

Field lou win yet give rew lorx rapid transit as you gave us the cable. WHERE ARE YOCL GOING? Is the question of the hour. Upper New York Is deserted: the lone rows of brown stones on Fifth and Madison avenues look as forsaken as the tomb of tbe Capulets, and, as a writer lutely remarked, form a phase of our modern civilization gloomy ana desolate in the extreme, borne of these resi dences, however, are not as dead as one thinks: for sometimes a face will peep through a blind as tbe ladles of the harem peep through the blinas in Cairo, and some members of the t'an't-eet-awav Club tree found even In the fashionable houses of these avenues.

Under these circumstances it is to be hoped that the Ohio De mocracy in convention asaemoiea wiu put asiue personal differences and favoritiams end counsel earnestly as to who is the best man to rally the people of Ohio, who is tne leader oi tne most personal magnetism, and whose record Is the bright est boldest and most unmistakably.

Who is the strongest man, now that the anti-resumptionists are so strongT Wa. HARD-HO! XT TILDEM Is off. and Felton's occupation as a tract mission ary is gone. Tilden told a reporter on the Scythla that the people wouia give mm a personal vindication in 1880. He did not say any tnina about Hen- dricksand the anti-resumption plank In the St Louis Convention, wrtnout wnicn ne could not nave carried even the State of New York.

The writer ha come to the conclusion that without any personal enmity to Mr. Tilden. be can never be induced to vote for him again, or any other candidate from New York State. Tbe Democracy has bad four candidates for the Presidency from the State ol 1866. The circulating medium, including coin.

was a- follows: fl.M0.56y.i82 of United 8tates legal-tender Treasury notes; 1107,148,713 of certificates of loan payable on ten days notice; XS5.0U3.000 of eertlfloates of indebtedness; 1185,000,000 of National Bank notes, legal- tenders for public dues and demands, except for customs and interest on the public debt, and 867,573 State Bank currency, which, together with say 100,000,000 of coin, made a total circulating medium of ti 096, 678.770. This waa mainly in cir culation in tbo Eastern. Middle and Western States: eleven States were unaupplied with a circulating medium.

The conse quence of having plenty of money was to make business more prosperous than had ever been known in this country.

The National Bank Act had been again forced on the country in 1863.

It made a golden har vest for bondholders with banking privileges: but busine-s being mainly on a cash basis in 1866, there were but few time notes to shave. Nor could bankers control business men.

They induced Congress to pass the and It is time for tbe Republicans to take a turn at that business. Let them nominate tbe elegant Lord Roscoe for 1830. The next Democratic candidate for the Presidency will be a Western roan, and the man whose record ia clear and whose sympathies are most unmistakably with the masses of the oppressed people as against the gigantic monopolies which amict out country and impoverish our people.

Augustus Scheu wonld have probably been on nana, out ne slipped out of the noble army of bachelors three years ago.

John Kelly did not put in aa appearance. He ia always sick when Tilden is around. The Governor was certainly looking well, his unctuous and pulpy face was wreathed with something that looked like a smile, but then his under up was pursed upas usual, as if be felt alreadv a little sea-sick. The dark and Napoleonic Pel ton attended his uncle as obse- quiouslv as ever, and his pretty wife, with her min iature bllzaDetnan pronie ana origin complexion, was much admired. The carriage following Mr.

Tilden's contained the Secretary ot State, Hon. John Bieelow, and Mrs. Bieelow. who is quite a diplomatist and rendered Mr. Tilden much service at St Louis certainly a charming lady and a sort of De Longneville at the dinner-table.

As Mr. Tilden ascenaea tne gang-pianx oi tne steamer a murmur ran through the crowd gathering on the deck, and the President-elect was the observed ot all observers, and certainly not much to look at An insignificant man in a crowd, with a boyish face and staring, expressionless blue eyes. Is that Tilden said a delegate to the Syracuse Convention, when Tilden was nominated for Governor. If I had a thought be was such an odd-looking little codger I wonld never have given him my vote." Thisgeutleman should bavo remembered that nature often puts ber choicest treasures in the smallest cases. In one of Shakespeare's plays the hero wins a lovely princess by choosing the casket that is the least pretentious.

Most of Mr. Tilden's Soung men have come down from Albany to bid Im bon ooyaoe, Amongthem the Hon. E. K. Anger, now Acting Secretary of 8Ute.

one of the moat promising young men in the tjtate, and who, as an orator, is already well known. Apgar is a natural-bora orator, and has at the same time a logical argumentative mind, which is seldom the case with your popular orator. A eueor little fellow was this Apgar. We knew him at Ithaca when a boy. and then he was always buried in a pile of newspapers reading long political addressee that would puzxle Gdlpos.

Mr. Tilden was received on shipboard by David Dudley Field, the fox-eyed, tall and lordly-looking lawyer, who was on board to bid good-by to bis brother, Cyrus W. Field.

ClNCIHKATt, July SO, 1877. Tn the Editor of the Enquirer: Governor Hayes, in his last annual message re commend the erection of intermediary prisons for tramps. The tramps in question to be sold to Perin. Gaff Co. for twenty cents per day.

and, of course, this firm to be allowed to engage In any branch of industry they might deem proper. Now the writer assumes that he is a shoe-maker by trade; and suppose that Perin, Gaff CoJ should engage their twenty-cent labor in the manufacture of boots and shoes, I ask how long would it be when Ohio would be overrun with shoe-maker tramps. And, again, I asg how long would it be before us railroad engineers, together with our firemen, would be met with a reduction of wages. And when the laboring: men of the South asked for troops we got a kick. When capitalists, wealthy railroad corporations of Marvlaud and Virginia.

Mr. Editor, therei are five brothers of us, and all are railroad engineers.

The oldest has run for thirty years; the next twenty-seven year', and so on down to myself, the youngest who have run nine years. Believe me, then, when I tell you it's impossible that any fireman should, if married and society ought not to deprive him of that right live on id 80 a week. Bear in mind, although a housekeeper, he is compelled to board' out: and some of my brothers, who have not used the strictest-economy (which means intemperate living), have not much a neaa ior a rainy oay. I The majority of "us are Republicans, or have been, and on yesterday we sent a communication to the Times, which has refused to publish It for fear. I presume, of offending the rich, for at the same time I notice he had ample space for base-ball news; and we wrote nothing; Inflammatory, for it seems to us that labor demands justice, not bloodshed.

The present incumbent Hon. John M. Millikin, is from this county, and -in tbo eternal fitness of things" it would seem exceedingly appropriate that his opponent should hail from the same place. Iu Democratic councils' Butler County should certainly be entitled to some recognition, and especially should this be true when we present such a person as Job E. Owens, who, for years and has been one of our most industrious and uromi- nent Democrat.

In the Slate, an.l has never been a candidate for any position.
