D. Richie, Capt. Naylor, and others. Resolu-
tons endorsing the doings of the National Con-

by reclamation. IL must be noted, too, that
among the prominent men in these movements
were many who have ever heretofore acted with
the Democratic party. But they or their friends

Editors Correspondence.
From our Baltimore Correspondent.

BALTIMORE, June 24-10 p. m
II is matter Of high satisfaction to observe
how heartily the Wings are responding here and
elsewhere to the nomination Of ScoTT and GRA-
HAM
There were, admit, many in Baltimore who
anxiously desired the nomination of Mr.. Fillmore
and Mr. Webster, This was perfectly natural
and is not to be wondered that they felt disap
pointed This feeling, however is fast subsiding
and now there is not Wing to be found who
does not heartily support the nominees, and say
that they are the strongest and best, all things
considered There were some injudicious enough
to say they would not vote for General Scott.
Now they regret having made such expressions,
and come over like men
The Democrats have been Boosting that Mary
land would cast her vote for Pierce and King.
But they have now ceased to boast My own i'm
preston is that Scott will carry this State by m
overwhelming majority-larger than that given
to HENRY CLAY. In Georgia, North Carolina,
Kentucky, Tennessee, and Louisiana, the same
results will also take place Of this, no one need
entertain a doubt
Is it reasonable to suppose Wings would allow
an election to go by default and permit the ele-
walton of an obscure mediocre man to the Pres-
Dental chair, when the gratitude even of gen
erous people should give it to the great defender
of our most sacred rights Can the South sup
pose Mr.. Pierce more sound upon the Compro-
mise question than true son of old Virginia
Gen Scott is national man, beyond all ques-
ton He is high-minded, pure, and patriotic.
If it were not for party predictions no Demo-
crat could object to giving him his support
1t is fact worthy of notice, that there are
now many Democrats in this city who openly
avow their intention to vote for the hero of
Lundy's Lane and the conquerer of Mexico.
They do not hesitate in proclaiming this openly
and aboveboard.
We have again delightful weather. 1t is quite
COOL But many of our citizens are already pre-
pairing to resort to various watering places.

the tendencies Of his labors and example.

Mr.. Clay.

In our last notice of the condition Of this great
man, which was on Wednesday, we stated that
he was very low. He is now, to say the least,
no better Although he has thousands of friends
around him, ready to render every possible SER
vice, it is thought prudent that but few shall en-

Clay, is constantly at his side, and most devoted
in his attention and Mr. Calvert and his family
are all to him that it would be possible for
brother and kindred to prove

The Doctor Gardiner Affair.

A copy Of the St. Louis, Missouri, Republican
has been presented to us, by gentleman whom
we feel disposed to oblige, with the request that
we would quote therefrom the annexed article.
We do so for the simple purpose Of complying
with this request. The case of DR.. Gardiner is
before the Criminal Court of this county, and we
have no disposition by any means to interfere
with its regular course of investigation. We are
totally unacquainted with DR.. Gardiner, and have
but little information respecting the merits Of
this question affecting him We are therefore
without prejudice, but certainly possess an earn
est desire TO have the legality and equity Of his
claim, and the means used to obtain it, examined,
and the guilty parties--if such there be con-
nected with it-punished to the utmost penalty
of the law.
