concludes most powerful article on the subject as

The Editor of the Wilmington Herald, who
Delegate the Baltimore Convention, goes for the
nomination with evident reluctance.
The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, paper of
much ability and influence and leading organ of the
Georgia Wings, says:
"The nomination of Gen. Scott under any crcum-
stances would have been acceptable to the people
of Georg 1t is not, therefore, to be wondered at,
that the news of his nomination yesterday was not

In opinion, he has claims upon the country
to the distinguished Office to which he aspires; for
we regard his military services constituting an

a civilian. statesman, one who is familiar with the
duties and responsibilities of that important office.
Gen. Scott cannot be so regarded by any Impartial
mind. In addition this, he is the avowed advocate
of the annexation of Canada, unless he may find it
eXpedlent TO change his views, and last, though not
least, he is the candidate of Free-soil and higher
law wing of the Wing Party-whose instrument we
regard him. and to whose discretion will be yielded
the distribution of the spoils if he should be elected.
For these reasons we will not support Gen. Scott
1t is proper to add that to Mr.. Graham we have
the slightest objection. He is distinguished and
conservative statesman, whom We should be pleased
to support If he was more worthily associated.
This position to US is one by no means congenial

field in an open and bold fight for him who has been

considerations of mere party fealty."

The Boston Courier says the announcement Of the |

proceeded chiefly from. individuals Of The FreesoiI

hope that Gen. Scott can be elected The New York
Day Book, staunch and active Wing sheet, says:
"The nomination of General Scott fails like ,uet

his abolition supporters here, and John NJ. Clayton,
John NJ Bolts, Governor Jones, and the Hon. Leslie
Coombs in the South, may carry Kentucky, Tennes-

will carry but just one northern State. They will
get Vermont, and nothing else. Mark what we say:
