doptcd:
LIST. Resolved, that. the Wings of Nelson
here assembled. approving most cordial
y the Administration Of Willard Fillmore,
and belie' ing his patriotic, just and con
cilaIory course tends greatly 10 advance
and perpetuate the welfare and glory Of
| the nation, and to cause it 10 be honored
and respected at home and abroad, would
be well pleased to see that course appro-
we'd by his election to the Presidency Of
the United States. Nevertheless we are
prepared to support with becoming zeal,
any other Wing candidate whom the Wis
dom of the National Wing Convention
may select as most available, provided he
be sound on the Slavery question, against
the doctrine of intervention, and for the
perpetuity of the Union as it is.
ID. Resolved, That the long tried patriot
ism,the ability the integrity and devotion of
Gen. Winfield Scott 10 the best interests
Of the country command our highest ad
mira,ion, respect and confidence, and if he
should be nominated by the National Con-
vention, as the most available Candidate for
the Presidency. we will give him our
warm and cordial support.
3rd. Resolved, That. believing the Wing
doctrincs.to be the true doctrines Of the old
Republican party Of this country, which
confine the General Government to the
exercise of powers expressly granted by
the Constitution, and to the Incidental pow
ers necessary and proper for carrying out
the granted powers, and reserve to the
State and to the people all other powers.
we are alike opposed to the wild, undiges
ted and reckless course of the Democratic
party, Secession party, Intervention party.
and the Old Federal party-believin they
all tend to sap the foundation of the Gov
crnmcnt established by our fathers. and
will if carried out, (sooner or later,) bring
"disas,crs dire" upon our people.

pointed Delegates by the Chair, to repre-
