la Loudnun county, Virginia, Mil,ard Fillmore
has been the idol of the peoples and when Johu
Janney returned home on Tuesday evening from
the Conventions in which he had labored for Mr.
Fillmore with II CUNTS might, be was visited
by q goodly number of his friends and neigh
bors who bad already heard the result, but de-
desired to know how it had been brought about,
and what were their delegates opinions on the
subject
Mr.. Janney told them that majority had
fairly triumphed in the Convention, and that
submission to the will of that ma jority, and CO.
operation in the work before them, comprised the
duty of every Whig-that it was not that they
loved Scott less, but that they loved Fillmore
more. He admonished his friends of the I'M
seemly and ungraceful attitude in which that
Wing stood who was less Wing because he
could not dictate the line of duty in all things.
For himself, he said, although he had yielded
up the candidate of his choice with deep regret
Tor the necessity, he had departed from the
Convention and returned to his home determined
that action of his should be withheld that could
tend to lead onward, with the cry of ''SCorT,
GRAHAM, AND THE COMPROMISES" to a triumph
ant and glorious victory
The assembled company, who came dropping
and with tardy pace, animated by the hearty good
feeling evinced by Mr.. Janney, and the buoyant
hopefulness with which he spoke shouted
the resolve to battle with light hearts and firm
resolves in the cause that has been honored by
the vote of that most patriotic and beautiful of all
the counties of the Old Dominion!
Three weeks ago, had an interview on
Pennsylvania avenue with talented and inf1u-
entail citizen of Montgomery county, MARYLAND
'lassure YOU he said, ''that Mr. Fillmore is the
hrst choice OF the Wings of our county, and that,
n fNr,,
will not support him. This gentleman was in
this city two evenings since, and expressed the
opinion that there was no human being in old
Montgomery, who had ever given Wing vote,
who would not now delightedly cast his suffrage
for Scott, Graham, and the Compromise! II
tell you," said he, 'the partialites of ardent
friendship, though superlatively good in them
selves, often lead the best of us astray; and like
Willard Fillmore, 60 for the patriot whom our
party has pronounced worthy of its support
Of 80 men from Rockingham county, Virgil
MIA, in party on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
line, on Tuesday, las we are informed by relia-
Bile and intelligent gentleman who was a witness
to the test,) 20 were Democrats, 12 were Wings,
and 81 pledged to vote for Scott and Graham
The SIGNAL GUNS ARE FIRING!-At Pitts
burg the Wing response has proved vociferous.
On Tuesday night the most intense enthusiasm
prevailed. The city was in fever of excite
ment-fireworks, music, and huzzas were album
dant salute of fifty guns was fired about sun
down, and at ght an immense ratification meet
ing assembled. Addresses were delivered by the
Hon. Moses Hampton, Captain Porter, D.
Richie, Capt. Naylor, and others. Resolutions
endorsing the doipgs of the National Convention
and approving the nominees, were passed by ac-
clamation 1t must be noted, too, that among the
prominent men in these movements were many
who ever heretofore acted with the Democratic
party. But they or their friends have served
with General Scottin the camp, and they kaow
him !-Wash Telegraph
