SOUTHERN WIGS, REID!

We find in the New York Day Book, Whig pa
per. the following evidence of the light in which
Gen. SCOTS nomination is received by the respecla-
BILE portion of the Northern Wing party. Southern
Wings, read
1.-THE NOMINATION OF GEN.i ScorT. There are
few facts connected with the nomination of Gen.
Scott which desire to call the attention of our
in this city and State. Who nominated Gen. Scott
Was it done by members of the wing party represent
ing the feelings ond principles OF the southern wings,
was it done by faction of the wing party repre-
sentng the abolition sentiments of the noshern por
ton of it? Let the facts answer.
Throughout this State it is well known that there
and bitter contest between what are
called the Fillmore men and the Seward men, the
silver grays and wooliy heads. Well, the woolly
heads or Seward men trlumPhed and sent their repre-
senatives to Baltimore Very well so far they had
succeeded in this Sate they had abolltionzed the
wing party in New York, but not in the United
States In Pennsylvania there was similar contest
between the Johnston men and the Fillmore or con-
servatve men, and the Johnston men succeeded.
How was it in Ohio! Why, there they succeeded
10. WE'LL then, these great States. thus under the
influence and control of Seward and Johnston, went
down to Baltimore with their eightythree voes and
there met face to face the Union men of the other
northern States and the ,uhs of the South To bring
their aid and support three four of the norhwes
States, they took favorite candidate of those
States and staked their fortunes upon him. But they
still in a hopeless minority. The Union or con-
sentative wings Of the North and the South too
many for them yet; but, unfortunately, they were
divided. Some were for Mr.. Fillmore and some for
Mr.. Webster. To keep up this division was the par
tcular aim and object of Seward and Johnston; and
in this they only succeeded but mbittered the
Partisans of these two great men towards each other
that of them, just enough for Stewards purpose,
went 10 Scott, and he was nominated. 1t ls,
therefore, Seward and Johnston triumph over the
South"
This, be it remembered, is the nomination which
John Kerr eulogizes and supports-this is the man
pronounced by him Salem, to be g safer for the
South than Gen. PIERCE!

Mr.. Webster's Reception at Boston.


BosToN, July g. Mr. Webster came from New
York via the Sound, last night, arriving in Boston
early this morning, much to the disappointment of
persons residing in the towns the New Haven
route, where receptions were intended to be given.
Heafterwards proceeded Roxbury, where he await
ed the committee of reception.
The reception, which took place this evening, was
the greatest that has been given for many years. The
military mustered very strong. not less than 25
MES being out. They suffered very severely from
the heat, the thermometer rising to IC2 degrees in
the shade.
The houses were decorated with flags and the city
disappearance of national holiday The
were 'thronged with spectators and boquets were
showered into MIR. Webster's carriage by the ladies'
at the windows. The crowd Of persons collected OF
the common estimated at sc, 900. Mr.. Webster,
on reaching the platform, vehemently cheered,
but looked worn out and detected.
Mr.. Webster welcomed by ]. Thomas Ste
venson, in an eloquent and appropriate address. At
one passage Mr.. w. much affected to be
unable control his emotion, and burst into
On rising to reply he was greeted with tremendous
plaudits. His remarks full of gratitude and
feeling, but contained no important political ausion.
He was afterwards escorted to the Revere House,
where he remains for the present. After night-ali
the residences of the great numbers of his admirers
were illuminated. and display of fireworks made
from number of buildings.

GRANVILLE.

The Democratic ticket in this County is as fol-
lows: For the Senate, N. E. Canaday; Commons
T. B. Venabe, w. H. Lyon, and J. M. Bullock.
We learn that the campaign has opened, and that
the Democratic candidates are likely to sweep every
thing before them. The Wing, alias Scott-Seward
wheel-horse,' Mr.. Ams, is it is said sadly put to
to make any thing like defence of his conduct in
the last Legislature. Surely the people of Granville
cannot; with their peculiar interests So largely in
voved in the result, give their voices again to this
gentleman. The Journals will show some of his votes,
and then again the record may not speak, but infer
ences may he drawn.

MR.. KERR,s MEMORY FAILING.

The reader will find in another column an account
OF the discussion at Salem between GOV. Reid and
Mr.. Kerr; and to some of the facts therein stated
and which may be implicitly reiiede, we invite spe
cial attention. .#'s.
The admirers of Mr.. Kerr will regret to learn thai
e's memory is fa;ing. Until he reached the long
tude OF Greensborough it was fresh and vigorous
enough but since his appearance there, and as he
advances West, it is melancholy fact that it loses III
strength the distance bet,ceen him and his Eastera
fellOaO-citize1s increases
1t will be seen, from the of the discussion
referred to- that Gov. Reid led off and spoke on the
several questions of State policy with his accustom-
ed Painness and candor and in the course of his
marks he called upon Mr.. Kerr to declare his posi-.
ton, as he had done, the subject of the basis and
the distribution of the School Fund Mr.. Kerr then
spoke at length, but strange to say he did alude
to either of these questions! Gov. Reid, in his
ply, called The attention of the audience to Mr.. Kers
silence. and asked him again state his position,
when Mr.. Kerr said he had forgotten to do so; and
he then admitted that he did 'agree with the Gov
in regard to the School Funds -!
We desire. in this connection, to make an inquiry
or two: First, how and why did John Kerr, just at
that time and place, forget these important questions?
Secondly, did he forget them in the East! Thirdly,
perfectly fresh and sound Fourthly, will he have
any memory at all by the time he reaches Buncombe?
Filthy, will the Register have the brass say again
that Mr.. Kerr has varied the shadow of shade
from the position which he has hitherto assumed - :?
