III The names of distinguished
wings and wing presses, who repudi.
ate the nomination of Gen. Scott, come
In upon us SO fast that we have not
time to mention them. We publish a
very respectable LIST ofthe dissenters in
another column. In this county there
are q great many gentlemen of talent
and influence, who have long cooper
ated with the wing party. who declare
publicly that they can not vote for Gen
Scott. All the sophistry Of ingenious
editorials can not whsedle them into
the support OF a ticket so VIGOROUSLY
tree-soil, as is the Presidential wing
ticket. We invite tall the world and
the rest of mankind" to a calm and
patient perusal of the position and
opinions of the two Presidential can
didates-confident that Gen. Pierce,
will come through tho crucible pure
gold-the safest mar for the South
the Union and the Constitution.

AUSTIN, TEXAS.
June 18th, 1852.
Friend Lcatherman-We have Just
heard here of the nomination of Pierce and
King, by the Baltimore Convention, and
there seems to be as much anxiety among
cui folks to know who Franklin Pierce is,
as there was in 1914, to know something
Of the history OF James X. Polk. We in
Texas, however. are content with the bare
knowledge that he is the Democratic nom-
inee-some few ' no sag they are demo-

Granite State. and too far North to secure
their vote. Among the true democracy Of

Of non.committalism which we coun. as
against us.

Eavds upon the Gouernment.-We
mentioned some days since that enormous
frauds upon the Government, had been dis
covered. by means OF forged land warrants
and that heretofore respectable parties had
been arrested in New York. We now give
the names Thomas B. Lawson, land bro
ker; Horace b. Pike, do; VIM. Merihue,

lawyer, Edward F. Nexson, broker. All
were committed to prison with the excep-
ton of Mr.. Nexson, who was considered to
be an innocent agent in the fraud. DR. Ell
