fearful dan5ert 10 the Union. While the conservative Whg7
OF the Norh for these reasons withheld their support on

The the Atlas iIiahen merchants and
business men Of Boston into The support Of Gen Sco by
fear Of The effect which opposition 10 his nomination may

Of that paper-farcica and prepostcrous.
The assumption that the business Of any portion Of
the country mostly in favor of Gen Scot for the Prcs
dent entirely graliltous ard unsupported oy fact All the
eiiurs OF the Atlas 10 sustain itself i. point
soon the mercantile classes into any hearty support Of

merchants and traders will doubtless from Oh party ties and
associations fall reluctantly into support Baltimore
nomination Many o,ers-as will be FUND when the trial

If the vote on the Presidential question wtre to be
taken next week in the city Of New York, overwhelming
majority Of the votes Of that city would be against
Gen Scott
No in this country, any other understand their

The business community OF Boston, and of Massachusetts
generally felt that independently of all his other high quail

They knew him WELL and they willing trust the
great interests of their trade in his hands For the honor of
the country and the interest, prosperity and safety OF the
country; for their individual honor interest," profit and
safety they desired 10 that truly placed
the head of the public as of this natJn. In This strong
and heartfelt desire OF theirs the have been uivd and foil

means; oed by the hostility Of men to whom they
had good right TO look for ncnance friendship and sup
