GEN. CAss.-The Philadelphia Statesman says:
"We scarcely pick up Democratic paper, either
from the North, West, or South-provided that
paper is sincerely devoted to the Union-whch
does not openly advocate the claims of General
Cass for the Presidency, or else speak of him in
the most fattering terms, as among the most
prominent and available of the candidates yet
presented to the consideration the Democracy
of the Union 1t is true, the claims of other good
and worthy men are freely canvassed, and, in
their own States, are more or less ardently
urged but still, the great national services,
and the national reputation of Gen. Cass, the
unspotted purity of his life and character,
whether as a great statesman or private citi-
zen, has elevated him far above all others
named, and, to a great extent destroyed all
State and sectional pride in a;general desire to
place him in position which his deep devotion
to Democratic principles, and his eminent ge-
MUS and craftsmanship so fully qualify him to
occupy"
