Webster,s nositi0n Defined.

We are impressed with the conviction that Daniel
Webster is opposed to the election of Gen. Scott to
the Presidency. The Springfield, (Mass) Republican,
ASCOT paper says that Mr. Banks, the Speaker the
House of Representatives of Massachusetts, has Just
returned from Washington and says that he (Banks)
told by Mr.. Webster that he should prefer to see
the Electoral vote of Massachusetts given to Gen
Pierce, rather than to Gen. Scott. The Republican says
that Mr. Banks says this, there be no doubt-"we
have" says the Republican, "accumulative public and
private testimony to this act.'' "The conclusion is,
continues the Republican, that Mr. Banks either tells
falsehood Mr.. Webster prefers Gen. Pierces cleo
ton to that of Gen. Scott"
We give entire credit to the above, for we find much
in our Northern exchanges to con6rmit.

Sent and the Nomination.

Gen. Scott in his letter accepting the nomination
of the convention, says:
sNot having WRITTEN WORD to procure
this distinction, lostnot moment, after it had
been conferred, in addressing letter to one of
your members to signify what would be, at the
proper time, the substance of my reply to the con-
venttion: and now have the honor to repeat, IN q
more formal manner, as the occasion justly de-
mands, that accept the nomination, with the res
olutions annexed"
Here he tells the country distinctly, that he had not
Written a Word to procure the nomination. Well, it
NAV be So But there are those who may question
this statement though we shall not. Here is another
letter written before the nomination, and which was
asmoked OUT of Bolts pocket by Choate, of Mass
NY DEAR SIR: haze decided to WRITE MOTH
ING to the convention, or to any individual mem
Der. before nomination; but should that honor fall
to mag lot, shall, in my acceptance give my views
on the Compromise measures in terms at least as
strong in their favor as those l read to you two
DAYS since. EE-P Please say as much to my friends
Governor Jones, Mr.. Bolts, Mr. Lee, DC.
In haste, truly yours,
WINFIELD SCOTT.
To Hon. W. S. ARCHER.
Now this is an extraordinary document truly. He
says he has decided to write nothing the
vet writes to Archer and requests him to show the
letter to JONES' Bolts and Lee He says in this letter
that if he should be nominated, that he will give his
views on the Compromise measures in terms as strong
in their favor as those he had READ to Archer two
days before. What did he read to Archer ! Where
is that document! What did he Read it for! Why
did he instruct Archer to show that letter to Jones and
Bolts He knew they were talking men they could
learn from Archer in what "terms" he would express
himself in "favor of the Compromise measures" and
by this adrot shift he felt of getting the nom
nation without committing his views on the Compro
mise measures to writing, thing which he begged
his personal friends not to insist upon. Was such
trickery this practiced before to secure nom
nation for the Presidency in this country!
The editor of the N. Y. Courier & Enquirer one o
the most thorough wings in the Union, says
''The nomination of Gen. Scott was accom-
plished by DISHONEST AND DISGRACE
lFUL BARGAIN-AS CORRUPT A BAR
GAIN AS WAS EVER PLACED ON PAPER
Again:
''But circumstances speak in language which
admits of no misapprehension; and the subse
quent conduct of portion of the delegations from
Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia, leaves no doub
; but that Mr. Raymond, for the purpose of apollo
giving for the Wings of the North acceding to
National platform, foolishly and weakly expose
the BARGAIN and CORRUPTION.

A Short chapter in the History of New
HamDShire,

In 1916 the Wings and Abolitionists combined in
the Legislature of New Hampshire, and dstricted the
State. They threw, by most unheard of system of
gouging and cutting up of towns, democratic mao-
rty about five six thousand into two districts, the
End and 4th. Tuck, an Abolition Wing, was elected
from the lst., and Jas. Wilson, Whig from the 3rd
district. This identical coalition elected Jno. P. Hale
to the u S. Senate YET says the Argus, the demo
cracy of New Hampshire is unanimously Abolition.

.SOund and CONSERVATIVES

We are meeting incur exchanges daily with the ex-
preston of what some may regard @Sound and Com
servatiye' views iii was the sound and conserve
tive portion of the Northern people who brought Scott
forward it follows that the which they assign
for his support are sound and conservative. The edi-
tor of the Pitsburg Pa Gazette an ardent supporter
of Gen. Scott, Gov Johnson, ct i'd &C., says in late
number of his paper:
Let us be understood. Between US and our
Free Soil friends there is dispute as to the char
acter of slavery it exists in the United States
The only difference between us is, how shall 1T be
dealt with7
Now, we charge upon our free soil friends that
they have left the post of danger and of efficient
service Whom do the champions of slavery most
fear. and at whom do they aim their heaviest blows
Are thew directed against VIM. Lloyd Garrison
Gerrit Smith, or even at John P. Hale or Joshua
R. Giddings? By no means; for SO long as these
gentlemen occupy the positions they do, they
strengthen slavery by thwarting and battling the
efforts of the men who are laborlng to arrest 1T
progress and resist its claims. Weakened by thei
desertion, the friends of freedom in the Nortt
have been forced to give way somewhat Wei
may the defenders of slavery look with compla
cency at such movements as the nomination o
Hale, and the Conventions of Buffalo and Pitts
burg, while they aim their heaviest blows at suci
men as Seward johnston anu uicey'
latter have not removed beyond striking distance
as have the others we have named"
] For these reasons we conceive 1T to be our du
j tv to remain where we are-in the Union, IN tn
Whig party; and to direct our efforts to delive
both, if possible from the dominion and curse Q
slavery; for if Slavery is ever to be abolished
peaceably, we are in the right position to max
our influence and efforts felt to that effect.
To support Scott them is to deliver the wing part
the dominion and curse of slavery, and to abolish
if it ever is peaceably abolished This is 'sound an

We have received note from this gentleman, re-
questing us to his from our list as sub
scriber to the Standard. We surprised to learn
that we had offended the Colonel and we are not ap-
prsed by his note for he has failed point us to what
he construed offensive to him, in his note If the
Colonel had been distinct in his note and direct
I'd attention to the expression or expressions to
which he objects, he would have afforded us an oppor
tunity of making the amende honorable which, whatev-
he may privately think our general kind feeling for
him man would have prompted, aside from the
courtesy we hold due to him opponent. But his
note is vague and general, and we are to conclude
from its general tenor, that we "have provoked his
pity.'' Mercful heavens
The Colonel lectures us little about editorial
courtesy" We yield, without word, to his superior
Judgment refined TASTE and profound literary acquire
ments, experience aad fame and acknowledge, since
he pronounces, that 'illberal, natured and
coarse and may have "transgressed all the limits OF
editorial courtesy and gentlemanly demeanor." We
plead guilty to all this, but hold that ignorance OF
therened and elevated standard erected by the Colonel
should have shielded US for his "pity.''
One other word. Intentionally, we have never in
tended to wound the feelings of COL Cobb; regard
for him as man would have shielded him from such
an assault. Had our disposition been otherwise, he
would have known it, for in the State of Mis-
sissppi is more egtimatey the subject for criticism
rdicule, than he is He is an author and is there
fore, standing subject for the editors pen. He is
very poor politician, and is, therefore, standing sub
iect for political pasquinades. Whenever we feel in
clined to change towards Col Cobb he moi
his friends will misunderstood us-if we should eye
entertain towards him spitefu' feelings, as he ele
gantly terms it. he will discover, that under the dis
guise of petty filings. attack man. Such cours
is pursued alone by the coward and assassin.
While Col. Cobb may think that 'fhs discontinuint
the Standard is drawing from US amendes for person
al injury wrong to himself, we beg to say, that
