II has now b,c,mc a fixed fact" that
MILLARD FILLMORE is tie fret choice OF
southern Wings 10 Presidency. + maiy
meetings an Sat, Conventions have alike
expressed their prefer nee. Tie high re-
gard in whcl Mr.. F., more is held in tn,
Sou:h is ,mincn,Iy deserved. Since his first
accession 10 the Presidency ty tie death of
T. y!or. his Administration Of pubic affairs
has been cminent'y conservative, ard such
as gain him the appreciation of political
friends and adversurics alike. Cas>, Blu Ter.
and Clemens, in the Senate Chamber, have
been compelled 10 pass high euogiums up
on him, acknowlcdg, ments forced ir, III them
by the merits OF his CHIEF Magistrate. In
the House, a recent attempt has been made
TO ccnsure him for the manner in which Il c
money voted by the last Congress for Il
extension Of the Capitol has been exTcrd, d
by him, or under his directions. Vic step
ped forward then as his defer der? Wa, it
political friend. whose atfinities might have
rhlenced, to some extent, his voice ard
iu gment? No. One OF the leading Dem
ocrats OF the House, man thoroughly and
practically acquainted with the SUBJECT.
Stanton, OF Tennessee. .vindcate cd his conduct
and triumphantly cleared hlm from every
appearance Of blame. These things speak
vo'rm IS in his favor. Not one single act
o his A iminiStration has been denounced
by d m1cratic Congress. They have not
dared to do it. HIS official conduct lgs
been too open, too straight forward Tor H., n
to assoll. On all the questions which have
agitated the country his course has been
many and upright And, as might have
been expected it has gained him the conf-
dcncc of friend and adversary.
There is then nothing in the ific;al con-
duct of Mr.. FilImo c, since he has filled the
Executive chair which should induce Wings
to hesitate one IN, mtnt in regard to his NOM
ination. The only question wh ch will re-
main for the Nationa. Conv II on o decide
is, can he command the strength OF the
Wing parry? We unhesi,aling' declare ii
as our opinion that he can, and that if he
cannot, 10 other whig can. Recent devel.
opmentS have shown the sentiments Of rllt
South. He will carry every Wing State
NJ ,ryIand, North Carolina, kentucky, ard
T,rnessce--by Overwhelming mai"ri'i.s.--
He will as surely carry Georgia, Loui, lana
Mississippi, and Missouri. And Iii;
Chances for Allb I'M are more han !avora,
Bile. We believe he will carry all these
S ates. We do not believe any other
Wing en- by possibility carry three OF the
S a,es cnum Grated. He is as strong Nyrtt
as any other man in the Wing ranks, not.
wthstanding the croaking Of some Of Il Fl;
abo'i ion Journals ofthe State of New York
He has ever been the most popular son Of hi
native State, and if he cannot carry New
York, it is extremely predetermined wheth
er any o her man can. Let who will b.
the nomine there will Ubtt div be mucl
division or sentiment in that Sae. Tn
candidate Of nci her party can POL tie OF
strength of the p,rly. In every other north
ern State he will command the entire W,
, Of the wings. HIS prospects are as z o
or better, than are those o; the other Wing
who have been named icr the off ,e. Will
> we thus, in common with the whole Sou II
= express our entire satisfaction with tn
| who'e administrative policy Of Mr.. Fil.mor
= and our preference Tor him, as tine can iliat
, Of he Wigs in the neAt cInvass, we woul
l no; b. un ierstood as n liking any remar
which would create the impression that W
woul not cordially support either MI
/ Webster or General Scotl, should either {
; them r. ceive the animation OF the GeneT
al Convention. T .cir posi- ion, if We uu
derstand it, is almost identical with thG
, of Mr.. Fillmore; at least they have given I
9 his Administration their sanction. w
e look upon these gentlemen as sound upo
= all the questions where the true interests {
( of the South are concerned. In conc usioI
I we would say, that, as we consider one ,
h the three will undoubtedly be the nOmihe
= of the National Convention, we unreserveC
r ly pledge ourselftO abide by the decision {
e that body and to give 10 the nominee OF
: support
