FILLMORE AND SEWARD.

A Correspondent of the Washington Republic, who gives a sketch of the recent journey of the President to the Erie Rail Road Celebration in New York, says: "During the whole route there was not the slightest evidence of coolness or incivility manifested towards either Mr. Fillmore or the gentleman of his Cabinet who accompanied him; and if there be any political hostility to him along the southern tier of counties which the road traverses, it was effectually suppressed on his appearance. His fine commanding form and agreeable address at once gained him the sympathetic regards of the people who then saw him for the first time. The only act of rudeness which I witnessed during our two days' journey on the road, was committed, I am sorry to say, by one of the gentle sex. At one of the small towns where we stopped to water, in the beautiful valley of the Chemung, after the President and Mr. Crittenden had made short addresses to the people, there was still a craving for more speeches; and, it having been noised about that ex-Governor Seward was in one of the cars, there was a call for that gentleman, who directly stepped out upon the platform. As soon as he commenced speaking, a spruce-looking lady, with a pink hat, who stood near, gave a disdainful toss of her head, and saying, loud enough for the Senator to hear, "Who wants to hear a woolly!" walked off to the other end of the train. This was the only exhibition of political asperity that I saw or heard of; and the only instance of rudeness on the part of the crowds who gathered at the stations we passed to greet the first train through and pay their respects to the Chief Magistrate of the Union.' That girl with the pink hat, is of the right stamp She is good game, and about the only good game in that whole assemblage. We honor her for what she did on the occasion. Here we have the infamous Seward travelling with the President, making Speeches to the people, and his part taken, against a lady, by some servile writer for the President's newspaper organ!
