RATIFICATION MEETINcs.

We wish we had space TO exhibit, in
its true colors, the enthusiasm which has
been created by the nomination of Old
Zack.
At Boston, Faneul Hall, the old cradle
of Liberty, could not contain the audi
ence. Abbott Lawrence presided.
At Baltimore, Monument Square was
crowded with enthusiastic admirers Of
Old Zack. Thompson, of Indiana, made
an able and eloquent speech.
At Richmond, at Louisville, at New
Orleans, in fact, all over the country, the
crowds and enthusiasm exceeded fal
what was witnessed in 1910, and every.
where but one feeling seems to pervade
the mass, determination 10 elect Zach
ary Taylor and Millard Fillmore
Friends of law and order, be of good
cheer-the fires burn brightly. Do bu,
your duty and all will be well. The peo
pie have taken hold of the matter and are
determined to elect a man who will mol
use his power to defeat their will.

Gen. Taylor and his reception OF Iho
nomination,

The steamboat General Taylor, arri.
we'd at Memphis, on her last trip, lust as
the news of Gen. Taylor's nomination for
the Presidency was telegraphed to that
city. She was the first to convey the in.
telligence of his nomination 10 the old
General. He ewas athis plantation above
NatcheZ.
The new Orleans Delta gives the fol-
lowing account of the reception of the
news by the Old Hero:
By happy and extraordinary coinci.
dence, the news of General Taylor's
nomination was brought down to Mem
phis by the steamboat General TAYLOR.
Captain Morchead, (Which, by-the-by,
the reader will remember, was the name,
OF the President of the convention.) As
the boat approached the Generals plan
tation near Rodney, she rounded to, and
the passengers commenced hollooing very
loudly for the old hero. After awhile
the General emerged from log cabin
and came down to the landing, where he
was met by Captain Morehead, who
handed him the letter announcing his
nomination.
He read i: without the slightest ap-
pearance of emolion,-after which he
quietly folded it up, put it into the capa-
cious pocket Of that famous old brown
coat, and turning to the captain remark
ed-"lts very fine day captain-a very
fine day indeed" "Yes very fne," res
lponded the captain. "Did you have a
pleasant trip downl" "Quite so," was
the captains response. "Good morning
captain,-good morning, gentlemen."-
And the eimperturable old gentleman wad-
died of, bowipg as he went to the passen-
gers and crew, who made the welkin ring
with their loud huzzas for Old Zack.

not successful in nominating our favorite,
withdraw our support from its nomineesl
What would we have thought of such
conduct on the part of General Taylor's
friends, if he had not been nominated
Let us then be just, not only to our fell
low wings in other States, but also to our
selves and our cause in Ohio. The Ian
guage ofthe Wing Central Committee of
Ohio, year ago, was "Abide the time
and the man." We have now to say,
that the time has come, and the MAN has
been presented by the representatives Of
The wings of the Union.
In compliance with the nomination of
the Wing National Convention, therefore
We earnestly commend to the wings OF
Ohio, General ZACHARY TAYLOR for Pres
ident. and MILLIARD FILLMORE for Vice
President of the United States.

- THE BoLTINe oONvENTIoNs.

The Ii berty Convention, in Columbus,
did not, as we anticipated. break up their
old organization. They agreed, howev-
er, to 60 into the Buffalo Convention to
nominate, with others. free soil candi
date. They resolved that it was mex.
pedient to nominate candidate for Gov.
ernor, but gave the power into the hand:
of their State Central Committee.
The Barnburners' Convention met, o.
Utica, N. Y, aud nominated Martin Var
Buren, and Henry Dodge. So says the
report; but we are inclined to the belle
that it was mere recommendation, az
they intend joining the Liberty men il
the Buffalo Convention. Martin Var
Buien in letter to the Convention, bic
them go on and said that he would nei
ther vote for Cass or Taylor.

A Noble Act,

GEN. TAYLOR, in 1S14-5 was a Cap
tain, or perhaps Major by brevet, and
stationed with his company at Green Bay
at that time far beyond the limits Of
civilization. The Paymaster received
from the governmant the necessary funds,
to pay off the U. S. troops, which funds.
save small amount, he exchanged for the
Bills of ]. H. Piatt & Co. Bankers in the,
city of Cincinnati-this was "business
transaction" on private account. The
Paymaster proceeded to Detroit, and
there paid off the soldiers in this Loco
foco individual responsibility paper-he
then proceeded to Mackinaw, and there
paid the soldiers in like manner; lastly he
reached Green Bay. Here again the
Paymaster, with proper official solemnity,
counted out to Capt. Taylor the bills of
j. H. Piatt & Co, Bankers for the sol.
diers-"OLD ZACK" looked at the "rags,"
and said-Is tA,s the stuff you intend to-
pay as? The Paymaster assured him
it was the same he paid to the men at
Detroit and Mackinaw, but says he with
knowing wink, Ihaoe United States
Bank Bilsfo you oficers. To this Cap
tain Taylor replied-"Sir my men can
receive no money that l am unwiHing to
take myseB-go back and get as gOod
money" Cincinnati Gazette.

HnmiItom COmmIy.


The Eagle in answer to our article sta
ting that Hamilton County has not yet
given in it's adhesion to the action of the
Revolutionary Convention, copies the
proceedings OF twO Township meetings
and the following article from the Engui-
rer.
"The Ohio Stale Journal, the Lancas-
ter Gazette, and the Dayton Journal, anx-
ious to keep up the spirits of their own
friends, have got up an article which ap-
peared in our paper some time before the
convention, and are palming it off as a
recent production, written and published
in violation of our position and, condem-
natory oftho action of Four political friends.
This is most contemplate trick. 1t
matters not what our views are, at pres
ent. During the discussion that prece-
ded the convention, every word we wrote
and published was carefully deliberated
upon. In view of the then position ofthe
controversy, we have nothing to unsay.
Our objection now is to the contemplate
meanness, and cowardly falsehood ofthe
papers we have named, in re.publishing
those articles, as of recent date, for the
purpose of keeping up the courage of
their party leaders, by misrcpresenting
the present position of the Enquirer
They will neither ofthem make the cor
rection. FaIsehood is the weapon ofthis
campaign in the hands of the whig lead
ers, and the papers we have designated
happily combine choice with necessity in
the use of it."
Whether from choice or necessity, we
are happy to inform John Brough that we
will "make the correction and place him
in his "proper position" The article
in question suited as we'll after the Con.
vention as before, and as we do not ex.
change with the Enquirer we were led
into error. But now what is the position
of the Enquirer7 Our readers will re.
collect that it holds that the people ofthe
State have no right to change their Con
stituton except in the particular mode
pointed out in that instrument; and least o.
aH,does it suppose that the Locofoco par
ty, in minority, has right to do so. I
is nothing more or less than treason
gainst the government. And yet from
what we can infer from the extract above
since the action of the Traitors Conven
tion and holding the views expressed il
the former article, the Enquirer now
veers around, lends its influence to
wrong cause and seeks TO accomplish {
purpose in violation of law and the Con
stitution. And it does this, too, although
"every word written and published wa
carefully deliderated upon" Oh! shame
Better had it been for the editor of tn,
Enqui,er,ha he bottled up his wrath ant
not have given us occasion to define hi
position. Is it an honest onel Or, is i
