Gen. seorr's Civil Qualifications.

The National IntelIigencer, a pa
per distinguished for its entire candor
and fairness towards political oppo-
nents, and which never bestows
undue praise to a political friend,
compliments alike Gen. Scott and
Samuel F. Vinton in the following
preface to our report Of Mr.. Vinton's
speech here-a couple Of weeks ago.
1t says:-Marietta hteliigencer.
ave find in the Marietta Intelli-
gencer the account given below OF
some remarks made in that town
by the Hon. Samuel F. Vinton,
respecting the Wing and Democratic
candidates for the Presidency. 1t is
much, SAYS a Latin adage, a lauddtO
laudari, to be praised by the praise
worthy, and our Marietta coniem-
porary does well TO attach great
weight to the calm and fair state
ment Of the respective merits-cirrl,
not military--of Generals ScoTT and
PIERCE, made by Mr.. Vinton. Than
this irreproachable statesman, our
national councils, in which he has
for near thirty years borne most
useful and honorable part, have
rarely contained a man more valua-
bic at once for soundness Of purpose,
practical wisdom, and the remarka-
bic moderation and candor with
which he always regards not only
the measures but the persons OF foe
and friend alike. Always fair and
truthful, and with the best opportu~
mites Of forming a just judgement,
the personal testimony Of Mr.. Vim
ton is, in Ibis Instance, as discrimina-
ting as il is correct; and this must be
acknowledged by all unpreiudiced
men who have had also the opportu.
nifty OF ftly judging the two candi'
dates"
Then follows our report OF Mr..
Vintcn's speech concluding thus:
"Mr. Vinton contrasted the histo-
~ of Scott and Pierce, not so much
as military men as civiiians,--staies
men-at some length, and said that
in view Of that history, and from bis
own knowledge Of the two men, she
had no hesitancy in saying that the
civil qualifcalions-he would not
presume 10 assure his audience that
his military capacity was equal 10
that of Gen. Pierce--but the civil
qualifications of General Scott were
vastly superior TO those Of Gen.
Pierce"

Democratic State Convention.

The Democratic Convention, Of the 4th
of March last, re-convened at Harrisburg
Thursday last; 1. 0 delegates present.
After an opening speech from President
Hopkins, in which he paid just tribute
to Buchanan, Cass and Houston, and con-
graduated the party upon having such
worthy nominees as Pierce and King, a
resolution was unanimously adopted, bear
ing testimony to the character and merits
Of Mr.. Searght, and expressing the re-
grets of the Convention, at his death.
The Hon. George W. Woodward, was
then, on motion, unanimously nominated
as the candidate for the Supreme Bench.
This selection was generally anticipated !;
and it is one in all respects worthy of the
support and appreciation of the people.
Judge Woodward is justly esteemed a
profound Jurist, and one of the ablest
and purest public men in Pennsylvania.
The Convention then proceeded to bal
lot for Canal ommissioner-ssveral can-
didates being named. On the Sd ballot,
VIM. Hopkins, of Washington, received
70 votes, and was declared the nominee of
the party. The next highest candidate
was j. Fl. Danner, of Adams county.
Mr.. Hopkins is man of considerable
experience in public business. He served
several years in the Legislature-was
Speaker of the Democratic House, during
the Buckshot War; and has also been in
Congress. He, therefore, comes before
US, with the repeated endorsement of the
people who know him, recommending him
TO the cordial and uuhesitating support Of
the citizens of the entire State.
The business for which the Delegates
had assembled, having been accomplished,
the Convention adjourned sine die, first
giving three hearty cheers for Pierce,
King, Woodward aud Hopkins.
