on Monday morning last for Pitisborough. with the
view of making an examination of the coal-beds in

1t is stated that one of the results of the recent
conferences among the Southern and Northern wings
as to ticket for the next Presidential election, that
Gov Seward and Gov. Jones, of Tennessee, have
both agreed to support Gen. Scott as the whig cam
didate. Gov. Jones, it is said, requires that Gen.
Scott shall place himself the Union platform and
support the compromise measures, while Gov. Sew
ard consents adhere to Gen. Scott his original
nominee even if he should avow himself in favor Of
the compromise measures. 1t would seem, therefore.
that Gen. Scott is to be the candidate of the two ex
tremes of the whg party-the compromise and the
anti-compromise-the Southern and the Northern.

Thus writes " Ion the Correspondent of the Bal
timore Sun. What becomes of Mr.. Graham! Where

say4 Gov. Seward, it seems, has agreed to support
Scott even if he should himself in favor of the
fugitive-save law. This is the course we always
supposed he would pursue. Seward has no idea of
un,uhigging hmself-he is too shrewd and far.seeing
to cut himself loose from the great Wing party"
His principles, too, accommodating in their char
acter-so much that he can stand up with the
Southern leaders for the nominee, though that nom
nee should take ground against his most darling
isms. Gales and Greedy, and Badger and Seward

the Delegates, and let them appoint them. The mat
