man. James X. Polk, OF Tennessee, has been unani-
mously nominated by the Baltimore Convention, the
Democratic candidate for the Presidency of the United
States We hail the nomination with joy, and anger
from it a most glorious victory
Circumstances have prevented the nomination ofthat
eminent statesman, Martin Van Buren, by two-thirds
VOTE according to the usage previous National Con-
ventions but what Democrat in the Union does not part
with him with the most profound gratitude for his servi
ces the warmed admiration for his talents and the SIN
cerest respect for the graceful manner in which he au
thorized his intimate friend, Mr. B. F. Butler to with
draw his name. Honor and happiness be his best re-
ward.

Of Mr. Clay and saves country from the sceptre Of
the Dictator MIR. Polk is true 10 all our Republican
principles and he is the friend of Texas. We shall &C
