LITTER FROM Gov. SEWARD ON ScoTT's
NOMINATION AT the Wing ratification meet.
ing held in New York on Thursday evening,
letter from Gos. Seward, in reply to an in.
vitation to be present, was read, in which he
says:
81 congratulate the Wings of New York
on their sagacity and patriotism in prefering
the worthiest available citizen, for the most
responsible service and the highest honor of
the Republic; on their persevering fidelity to
him and to their own sacred principles of
Freedom and Federation, as well as on their
distinguished prudence and magnanimity in
the conduct of the Canvass of Nomination,
finally on the auspicious result of their Ia
Dor.
Sand now let the dissensions of the past
be buried in the grave, to which its errors are
fastening. A Wing Administration, with
such chief, cannot fail to be guided by the
principles of order, of moderation, of devo-
ton to the Constitution and the Union, of
melioration, improvements and progress;
which the whig party have always cherished
and maintained, and acting on their principles,
will mark an era, not merely in advance OF
our own county, but even in the cause Of
Republican principles throughout the world" }"

DR.. CLAIMING ON GEN. ScoTT.-The fol-
lowing tribute from this celebrated divine was
written several years ago, and at a time when
its subject was less conspicuous than at pre-.
sent:
Much also is due to the benefcent influence
of General Scott. To this distinguished man
belongs the rare honor of uniting with mill
tary energy and daring the spirit of a philan.
thropist. His exploits in the field, which
placed him in the first rank of soldiers, have
been obscured by the purer and more lasting
glory of paciicator, and friend of mankind.
In the whole history of the intercourse of
civilized communities, we doubt whether a
brighter page can be found than that which
records his agency in the removal ofthe Cher
okees. As far as the wrongs done to this
race can be atoned for, Gen. Scott has made
the expiaton. In his recent missions to the
disturbed borders of our country, he has sue
ceeded, not so much by policy, as by the no.
bleness and generosity Of his character, by
the earnest conviction with which he has en-
forced on all with whom he had to do, the
obligations of patriotism, justice, humanity
and religion. 1t would not be easy to FIND. s.
mong us man who has won purer fame,
and would do something, 10 matter how
little, to hasten the time when the spirit OF
Christian humanity shall be accounted an
essential attribute, and the brightest ornament
in public man.

IMPROVEMENTS who question the
advantage of railroads upon the country
through which they pass, have only to take
trip over the Chattanooga road. AT every
stopping place, almost workmen are engaged
in erecting business houses. The demand
for carpenters exceeds the supply. The same
state of things is observable along the line Of
the Memphis and Charleston road through
North Alabama. We heard, during recent
visit to that country, great complaint among
builders of the scarcity of carpenters.

THE DIGNITY OF characterization life
with its sullniest features, and gloss it over
with its richest hues, and it becomes a poor
painted thing if there be in it no toil-no
hearty hard work. The laborer sighs for
repose. Where is it? What is it! Friend,
whoever thou art, know it is to be found
alone in work. No good, no greatness, no
PROCESS is gained without it. Work, then,
and faint not, for therein is the wel-spring
of human hope and human happiness.

as possible. As an instance, he says that
when a wife dies, it is often announced, "Di-
ed, Mrs. So-and-so, ,cye Of Mr.. So-and-so;
giving the world to understand that Mr.. So
and-so is a widower, in existence, and "in the

merely announced, "Ded, Mr. So-and-so;'
and Mrs. So-and-so is not mentioned, nor
whether Mr. So-andso ever had Mrs. So-and
so, This giveswidowers decided advan-

/ The New YORK Express puollshes lettel
from Mr.. Fillmore to Geo. R. Babcock, 6
Delegate to the Wing National Convention
from the 32d District of the State of New
York, dated June 10, in which he declines to
be considered as Il contestant for the nOmi.
nation.
BALTIMORE, June 80.
Meetings to ratify the nominations of the
Wing National Convention have been held
at Cincinnati, Memphis, Louisville, Madison
and other points, and the enthusiasm exhibit
ed at each of them is said even to exceed that
shown during the Harrison campaign.
WASHINGTON, June 90.
The great Wing Ratification meeting took
place last evening, in this city, and the pro-
ceedings were of very animated and enthu-
siastic description. Among the speakers
were the Hon. James T. Morehead of North
Carolina, Hon. William Cullom of Tennessee,
and Hon. Joseph R. Chandler of Pennsylvania.
rY- 1t is enough to make the heart of ev-
cry good Wing leap in his bosom to read the
enthusiastic accounts of the spirit kindled at
Pittsburg Columbus, Cincinnati, Madison,
indianapolis, and other places by the inteli-
,, gence of Cen. SCOTS nomination. The fol-
lowing paragraphs are from the Cincinnati At
las of Wednesday:
CAvINe IN.-The Locofocos about here
don't know where they stand, nor to whom
to look for countenance. They gaze at each
other with looks of Enquiry as if to say-'Are
Won too for Scott!" The desertion from their
ranks has commenced, and we shall be mis-
taken if few weeks does not witness gen.
eral stampede among the rank and file, each
striving to be ahead of his neighbor in fleeing
from the falling tower of Locofocoism.
On the receipt of the news of the nOmina-
ton of General Scott, quite large number
of our fellow-citizens who had heretofore
acted with the Locofoco party declared their
determination to vote for the old hero, and to
do their utmost to secure his election. We
had the pleasure of conversing with several
such, and of hearing from their lips the cvi-
dence that there are many more OF the same
opinion.
ScorT ENrHusIAsM.-Persons coming from
above and below on the river speak OF the
demonstrations of enthusiasm which they
saw. All along the Kentucky shore, and on
the Indiana below and Ohio above, bonfres,
illuminations, and artillery were seen and
heard, the most cheering evidence of JOY ap-
peared, making the very river vocal from shore

EXCITEMENT ON THE RIO GRANDE-AMER-
1cANs KILLED. Two Americans and two
Mexicans, who had taken part with Carvaial,
have been executed in Matamoras, notwith-
standing every effort was made by the for
eign counsels there and citizens and ladies TO
save them. These executions created great
excitement on the American side of the river,
and Gen. Avalos was shot and burnt in efiigy
in full view of the garta Of Matamoras.
In addition to these occurrences, it is stated
that several Americans have been killed along
the river by a band Of Mexicans and Indians,
numbering near one hundred. This band not
untrequenty made inroads into the Ameri-
can settlements, destroying property and a.
farming the inhabitants. They had also fired
upon parties Of Americans from the Mexican
side Of the river.
