HON. c. H. WILLIAMS.

We copy with pleasure the following from the
Savannah Journal of the 9th August:
We are glad to learn from source that we
can implicitly rely on that the course of Messrs.
Gentry and Williams has at length come to
point at which it may be defined with some de-
gree of satisfaction both to their friends and OPP
ponents.
We understand that Mr.. Williams passed
through our town last week, ON his way to Ba-
ker's Springs, and that during his stay-one
night-he conversed freely and fully upon the
subject of the elections; and gave his friends to
understand Enthusiastically that he is vet as good
a whig as ever, and as warmly devoted to the
great principles of the whig party. He said
that he could not himself support Gen. Scott
after what had transpired but that it might be
distinctly understood by ALL that he should not
vote for Gen. Pierce, nor would he dc anything
to embarrass his friends in voting for Gen. Scott
- Mr.. Williams believes that Gen. Scott viii be
elected but, as he supposes, from his present
feelings, he shall not be candidate for re-elec-
ton from his district, he has no more interest
in the result of the Presidential election, than
the humblest voter in it. He therefore shall not
persuade any one to occupy his position of in
activity, but upon the other hand urges the i'm
portance of diligence upon the part Of the
wings, to 90 into the election with their usual
fervOr and devotion to the cause, and thinks IT
they shall dc so, they will succeed in electing
their candidate-and, of course, along with him
the policy for which they have been contending
under the guidence of their late lamented Clay,
of Kentucky.
Mr.. Williams alluded with marked displeas-
ure to the false statement that has been made in
relation to a conversation that it was said he
had had on his return home on the cars near
Nashville, in which allusiOn had been made to
the dying declaration of the lamented Clay. He
remarked that it was very ungenerous, that the
ashes of one for whose loss the nation was in
mourning should be disturbed by unhallowed
hands, and lugged into the party questions of
the day.
Mr.. Williams is further represented as saying,
ut was most cruel to lacerate the feelings of the
family of the illustriOus statesman, by imposing
upon them the unpleasant duty of vindicating
the privacy of his death chamber, and his fame
from the heartless aspersions of political min
IONS" There was no truth in any of the base
insinuations that had been made either as res
poets the prospects of Gen. SCOTS election, or
as to the course which Mr.. Williams had pre-
scribed to himself in the canvass.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1852.

BE~ The rapid growth of cur new and -four
ishing town of Loudon w.. .rubiect of general
remark by gentlemen of other localities, who
attended the large and enthusiastic Wing meet
ing held here on the l4th. The splendid Brick
Ware and Store Houses already erected and in
course of erection-the splendid first class Hotel
and other public houses of respectable merit
and the large number of private dwellings that
have sprung up as if by magic in the last six
Or eight months, was beyond general expectation.
They saw completed to this point, one of the
best Railroads in the world, connecting with the
Southern coast. They saw the "Iron Horse in
his pride and strength. They saw the noble
Tennessee discharging a volume of water larger
than the Ohio which built up Cincinnati and a
half dozen other cities of commanding impor-
tance. They saw Steamers coming in to our
wharf They saw hardy, enterprising class of
citizens. They saw the commencement of Man
ufactories in the new Steam Saw Mill of Messrs.
Harvey & King, which has just commenced ope-
rations. All concentrating here within few
months. No wonder at their astonishment.-
But hundreds of hammers and plains and trow-
els and other implements of industry were lay
ing stil-for our patriotic citizens had determin-
ed to devote a day to the Nations welfare Had
all these been going ahead as usual and min
Cling in delightful chorus and had our workmen
been blowing rock in the various wells and
quarries as usual, making the surrounding forest
reverberate almost equal to the thunder of
bombardment- would have thought of a truth
that the hardy spirit of industry and enterprise
was here, and those who correctly weigh cause
and effect, would have gone home convinced with
us that this is destined to be in very short time,
a large town, if not city of much commercial
and manufacturing importance.

Scott az East TennesSee-Having recently
visited The o,,,,t;ae and made inquiries
in nearly every neighborhood through which we
passed, we feel able in all candor to say that
Gen. Scott will receive larger majority than
it is usual for the Wing party to get. Our visit
was about the time of the meeting of the Phlla-
delphia Webster convention, and we found a
few good Wings who stood off thinking that Mr..
Webster would become the popular candidate
We however believed at that time that SCOTS
majority would be as large as the Wings recelv-
ed at the last election-for there were many Dem
ocrats in every county who were for the gallant
old hero Now, that there is no earthly chance
for Webster, there is no choice left but Scott
and Pierce, and we honestly believe that there
will not be upon the day of election, more than
half dozen Wings in East Tennessee who Will
refuse to vote for Gen. Scott
Come friends, let US go into his support with
hearty good will They may say that he has
not equal claims with Fillmore and Webster to
the Presidency-but no one less stupid than an
Ass would pretend to compare Pierce's claims
with those of Gen. Scott, who is undeniably the
greatest military chieftain in the world, and can
gain more victories with less loss of men and
property than any other man.

ANGEL WHISPERS.
BY W. c. LODGE.

Angel whispers! will they never
Cease to tell of golden realms;
Isles of beauty, smiling ever
In the mystic sea of dreamsl
Lands of flowers and gems and spices,
And an atmosphere of love,
Where the dark-eyed girls entiee us
IL the fairy fields to rove.
Angel whispers, softly bringing
From beyond the star lit skies,
Echoes Of the sweet songs ringing
Through the wales Of paradise;
Visions Of bright fountains gushing,
Nectar, washing golden sands,
And the red wine rivers rushing
BY the pearl and amber strands.
Loving spirits sent unto us,
Clothed in sinless robes of light,
And with seraph tones to WOO us
To the regions Of delight:
Voices of exquisite sweetness,
81 would clasp your viewless forms,
By your wings of airy feethess
Still elude my outstretched arms.
Angel whispers gently stealing
Where the hush of death surrounds,
With their holy balm of healing
For the bruised spirits wounds;
Breathing a delightful story
Of bright Immortality,
And land of love and glory,
Far beyond life's troubled sea.

speech in New York on the Sd instant, which
ELECTED great applause. In denying the charge
that Mr. Clay was opposed to the nomination of
Gen. Scott, he remarked-"M "Mr. Clay had great
love for Mr. Fillmore,f as1 have; bnt when Mr.
Clay heard the guns booming from the square in
Washington for the nomination of Gen. Scott,
some persons in attendance upon the dying
statesman proposed to go out and stop the firing.

sound of those guns bring nothing butjo to my

Daniel Webster approved of the Hartford Con-
vention, and of the conduct of the burners of
blue-lights by acting with them. And so he is
a blue-light Hartford Convention federaist, spite
of the Banners cOntradiction.-Nd Nashville Amer
icGR.
Ra@ We were astonished to see the above in
the American Just at this time, when it is almost
treason in the estimation of Democrats for the
Wings to vote for gallant old soldier who has
been fighting the battles of his country for forty
gears, instead of for Mr.. Webster. We can only
account for it upon the supposition that it was
written before SCOTS nomination, under the i'm
preston that either Webster or Fillmore would
be the nominee, and that it got into the paper
by accident. We do not know how it is else
where but here in East Tennessee, the Democ
racy have taken great liking to Mr.. Webster,
and the cOrporals guard of Wings who have de-
clared for him. But this is newborn love to
say the least of it. and in order to test it. we pro-
pose that both Wings and Democrats all unite
on Mr. Webster and elect him If they back,
we want to hear no more of their anxiety for
Mr.. Webster. We shall think that they desired
RHS him to tEgR il H9g 9dsr staya a heaB aBDua abyss h
and factious greed, from which, even his present
position as a powerful auxiliary to Gen. Pierce
cannot shield him. With what virulence would
he have been assailed had he been the nominee!
The backest devil in hell would have been
shining saint by his side.

seA, As mean a thing as we have known the
Democrats to be guilty of during this canvass,
is to transform themselves into Anti-Scott Wings
and write letters to newspapers stating hatthey
cannot support Gen. Scott. 1t is an easy thing
for reckless partizans to manufacture letters OF
this kind and publish them as from Antl-Seott
Wings, but it will be hard to get Wings who
will father them. If a Wing wants it generally
known that he cannot support Scott, he will
come out like man with his real name-a Lo-
cofoco wishing to make a false impression, will
write himself down an Anti-Scott Whig.

Rar Some of the Democrats complain that
when Gen. Harrison was the Wing candidate
no honor was paid to Chippewa and Lundy'S
Lane: and that when Gen. Taylor was run moth
ing was heard of Cherubusco or Chepultepec;
and now that Gen. Scott is the candidate, Buena
Vista and the Thames and Monterey and Tippe-
canoe and all those old battles are forgotten
so that if we have paid no honor to the long Sc
ries of brilliant victories of which Gen. Scott
was the gallant Hero, filing up the history of an
half dozen Wars, it is time we should do so.

over their neglect SO long, now refuse to honor

GEN. SCoTT-We have seldom read more
eloquent and noble tribue to General Scott, than
is contained in communication which appears
in the New York Courier and Enquirer of
late date. The writer, after enumerating the
priceless public services of Gen. Scott proceeds
as follows:
at is true that Winfield Scott is a military
hero. But is he nothing more? Is he not thro'
out Of the grand heroic stamp in all that regards
mankind? Who more wise in public eounciR
MahhhpptmatfSa Mhp mRgs 81 Hpsat ST u qf iii
dent and prompt on the battle field? Who more
careful of the soldiers blood? Who more for
getfnl of injuries? Who more magnanimOus to
personal enemies? Who more generous to pub
lie ones? Who more constant and cOnfding in
private friendship? What man can say he has
maliciously wronged him? What woman that
an impure look or word from him has offended
her modesty, or that he has laid an unchaste
hand upon her? No altar, religious or social,
has Winfield Scott ever profanedl With the
Prophet Ruler and Patriot of old he can fear
lessly challenge his people to say what man has
suffered wrong or violence at his hands.
But some man viii point you to what he calls
the foibles of Winfield Scott. If he has foibles,
who has not? What is the identity of each man
but his foibies? Take these away and you leave
not q Delng, Dut an doSlIdcIlOH VI NA'uSS anu
vices. In long life of bubble duty, longer con-
secutively than any man now living, discharging
trust after trust of the most varied and often of
the most complicated and delicate character, IN
WHAT ONE HAS HE FAILED? What public inter
ests have these much magni6ed foibles mared?
Not one. Success, uninterrupted success, has
attended every affair oi tc & reople which he has
had to manage. How his own interests have
sped he has little rocked so that his country's
were secured. Who shall gainsay the truth of
this? The writer of this repeats, call Winfield
Scott to tie bar of public scrutiny, and letim-
partial justice decide. Mol no! there is nought
here thus far for Americans to regret. There is
nought but for what SOBER REFLECTION will
show them they have deep cause for gratitude to
the Great Dispenser of events. Nought but to
lead them to pray that they may ever have
a Winfield Scott in their hour of need"
