announcement that the Wing delegates as
zsembIed at Baltimore, from all parts of tn
Union, had tremendously presented Genera
9Winfeld Scott, the hero Of two wars, anC
55mauy battles, wise in council as he is brave
sand prudent in action, to the suffrages of tn,
speople, for the high Office Of President ofthc
United States. The original advocates O
Gen. SCOTS nomination were, Of course, su
gpremeIy delighted but the friends of Mr.
/ Fillmore and Mr.. Webster, strongly as they
/ had consended for their personal preferences
Syielded a scarcely less cordial assent to the
expressed will of the majority. The triumph

sWhig party than their attachment to men =

On the evening that the news of the nom
5inatjon reached this city, two hundred gun:
were fired /; and a spontaneous gathering o.
] the Wings took place at the Broadway House
(which had been promptly and brilliantly il
illuminated. The meeting was one of tho
largest of the kind ever held in New York
aand was addressed by Hon. Joseph White
sSenator Morgan, VIM. Milliken, Esq, anc
Lieut. Brown, the last of whom, served as
ian officer Of Dragons in the Mexican War
sunder Gen. Scott. Lieu: Brown praised ouI
sillustrious candidate with that earnest admi
1 raton and affection which are almost univer
sally entertained for him by all who have
sserved under his command.

2ceptable to the Wings Of the city Of New
3 y ork. Aside from the many claims which
shis answering fidelity to the Wing party
ghis marked ability. and his estimable person
.al character, have given him upon popular
+support, his nomination is felt to be a vel
smerited tribute Of regard to the present Ad
ADMINISTRATION, Of which he is one of the mos
. important officers.
The hitherto 'unterrifed Democracy are
struly terrified al The hopelessness of a contest
against the Great Captain of the Age, under
sthe leadership of one of his most obscure
, lieutenants The Evening Post, one of the
smost sagacious Iocofoco papers in the coun-
ttry, thus expresses its fears 50 All the Wing
sPress Of the country will support the Wing
candidate, commencing with the Adminstra-
SliHn journals at Washington. The President
] has lready avowed his satisfaction with the
domination. Mr.. Webster will be none the
!. less active now, than he was in 1913, in pro-
lmoting the success of Gen. Taylor; and, be-
.fore the election-day arrives, it viii be diff
cult to find any Wing who was not a . Scott
imam from the start as to find dog without
-deas. We warn our Democratic friends
sthereiore, nov that they will have TO contend
1 with the undivided forces Of The Wing party,
that they can hope for nothing from its dis
ssensions. We warn them, also, that they
! have an antagonist who is not to be despised
We deem it our duty not to disguise our i'm
spression upon this point"
