 From the Saoaaaab Georns
 In the recent action of the Ns,;o,. NSan

 really seem as if there was ..a ! I which shapes our ends, roueb to

 Many an anxious eye has been p'ug g. ue
 in hope, half in dread, to the nroa.ls ~,a9 that convention. Many a reppbIia'8 r;''
 all over the land, has beat hirb b',,tal w;9
 tation, as the tidings have been brona n'3 ! day to day, of the course of it's og.l dolT
 The candidate of our opponso,l s,ae1l ,l Presidency was already in the @ fei1 { sperate party, that regards princinI, I
 thing, consistency as nothing. tbe ~ rests of the country as nothine, in s o,.. a
 to his election, had rallied conf5eagl d Gnl' him. Already had they surnmonaj assistance those disgraceful means 15 <, z degrading, and disgracing the natios
 which, and upon which alone, they ', S,1I their hopes of success. Our ns,t, ,'l' vided by preferences for men. Fs Tbss 1a " were broad and deeply drawn. Rs,s1l al who are bound together by princinis. oEa'l z are eternal, were apparently rentfoe,s' der by these individual animositias ' i evidenttoall, that upon the harmonio,,ll of the convention at Baltimore, depsn3' salvation of the Democratic partv 'a.i .si 1t, all of those great republican n ms' sa' which have hitherto formed the b,si. national policy. The crisis is ns country is saved. The Democraii, which, when firmly and zealousIr ! never has been and never can be dss. is, indeed, united once more to a man nomination of this convention bas i acted like a charm. Such union ey, ready in the party, as has not existed was led by that glorious old hero 1, Jackson. The Democratic party m, now one solid, unbroken front, and < is certain.
 Numerous as were the names hf, convention, and worthy as many ofhi guished leaders Of the Demoeratic n- doubtedly are of honor and distDcdr convention could not have selected,, date combining in himself So many q. of worth and success as James K. I'd.
 First and foremost, he repsesensI completely, 10 an iotd, OUR Pssiiyy;;i The history of his life may be readfl title pageto the end, and every chapat line, every word, contains concnsipa. of the fact that James K. Polk IS A rRl PUBLICAN DEMOCRAT. From the veal when, as a prominent member of t6eLs ture of Tennessee, he called the heOI leans, Andrew Jackson, forth fromreis to take a seat Ill the United States down 10 the present moment, his Ma have never WaYered not q breath oid has left even a momentary cloud upon pure, bright surface. In 1895, he la seat in Congress- strict constructa the Federal Constitution. This fnis al principle of republican policy has controlled his action. In 1929 he tn stand firmly and boldly against UnindI Bank. The same year he opposedh gress that notorious Federal measut Panama mission. In 1880, he was Gs dard bearer i'll Congress of oppositonr most unjust, onefous, and unconsdig poliey-a system of jateraa1 impaa He has ever been opposed to the laii never has wearied in his opposition bank. The distribution of the prOcs the public lands, the restriction ofa power, and the entire system of Whigp passed upon a loose construction of td stitution, have ever found in hin an rl ing foe; and last, but not least, he is l of the immediate annexation of Teya SUPPORTING JAMES K. POLK, THE.l PARTY SUPPORT EACH AND Y THEIR CHERISHED PRINCIPLES.
 Secoadly-James K. Polk is MASt PEOPLE. His has never been the a1 which has aspired to selfish distinctlon high honor conferred on him by thsl1 ton will be as surprising to him as t \ gratifying, He has indeed been ca1 the voice of his country, to serve her son of a plain farmer, brought up rl plain and simple manners of the coul] has been that patriotism which seemsN ish best among such associations.
 Thirdly-He is not only worthy high office which his couptrymen Vll upon him, but heis capable of filing distinguished honor to the nation. fl7 unyielding in all his principles-caln energetic, in his temperament--andd ds1 though unostentatious, in deportmenl-] sembles Mr. Madison in mind and cS1 and his administration of the GoyenIne1 be such as to secure the respect ol ,ne and the admiration ofposterity. Nan] bestowed upon him those high qualn1 of intellect and of heart which have him, at one and the same time, to h0nl tinguished position before the cogg19l| cgl NJ to secure the friendship and esteemo1| know him.
 Fourthly-He has been the lntmaA and associate of the sages of the parry Andrew Jackson, descended from all cestry, he has ever been the bosom the old hero. With Martin Van Duls our own lamented Forsyth, hls relai0s of the most endearing character
 In a word-we doubt mot but tha'Or imous response has already been ts. .s, the whole Democratic party 10 .,, ..... q V ..,, hovn rOIlllA'
