EnwARp STANLEY, of North Carolina, n ca
ian, and consistent Wing, has written letter
IN reply to TINT published by Mr.. EAsELL, al
FLORIDA, hose boiling propens..es led hu- &c
unite with TooMBs s. Co., to defett Mr.. WIN.
THEoP the Wing candidate for Speaker Of the
House OF Representatives two years since. In
ms letter Mr. SrAYLEY expresses his prefer
tnceS for Mr.. FILLNoEE, but denies that the
W hgs ct North Carolina will repudilte the ac-
ton OF the National Convention, If Cen. ScoTT
shall be nominated.
What Mr. SrANLrv declares rue of the old
North State Is equally true of other \Vbig
States Of the South. Mr.. FILLMORE is. mn,
lucetlonabiy, their first choice. Recent eyents
have tended to produce this sentiment: and no
Wing at the North objects to ii, or to its utter.
ance. But we do object to the attempt makinp.
by n few hot-spurs, 10 ostracise Gen. ScoTr
because Northern Wings prefer him
The Wings, every where, are ready to abide
the decision Of the National Convention. II is
the recognised tribunal of the party. TO de-
termnc in advance to acquiesce in its decision
only IN tic event of the Rominat IN of par,i-
cular candldate, is simple mockery. And vet
sueh Is the temper Of such " higs as CABEiL,
STANLEY, MANGUM, GENTRY, BELL, CRIT,
TENpEN, JONES, and host of other well-known
veterans, are composed OF different material.
and, with the great mass of the " higs of the
North, will be found doing battle for whomeycr
slnll be presented as the standard-bearcr ofthe
party IN the approaching canvass.
