these worthless; that American citizens
had ceased to be grateful in remembrance
of the daring deeds and noble services
of their war-worn heroes that mediocre
ty and obscurity had become the goal
of reward at their hands; and that West
ern people, particularly, were about to
stultify themselves by voting for men who
have, during their whole public lives,
sat in the councils of the nation with their
hands and voices upifted, strong and loud,
against everything Western. But the
voters of the United States are about to
be guilty Of no such absurdity. BY every
mail the accounts, public and private,
strengthen the prospects of Scott and
Graham. Private letters, not at all writ
ten for effect, confirm what we see in our
exchanges. We make few extracts
from the latter source, giving the latest
appearance of things from some of the
most important States:
OF North Carolina, the Raleigh Regis
ter says:
We would say to our friends abroad:
Lose not yo,r confidence in the CONTINUE
ed ascendency Of Wing principles in
North Carolina. THE STATE IS WING
AS EVER. Local causes have had every
thing to do with Reds election-national
politics nothing. In November, when the
causes are removed, or can have no influ-
cnce, The St!e uW go for Scott and
Graham by Thousands. For ourselves,
we shall enter upon the contest before us
with undiminished hope and undated
ardor.
GrokcIA.-Thc Republic publishes the
proceedings Of the Scott Wings in Gecr-
gia. Forty counties were represented.
We see that the Webster and jenkins
ticket has been withdrawn. The Repub-
lie says: I'VE are assured that the Scott
Wings in Georgia are now in high spirits,
and that the conviction is becoming strong
er and stronger that the State can and
will be carried for the regular Wing NOM
inees."
PRosrEcr IN New YoRk.-The Al
bany Evening Journal says, things look
right in New York. The Wings appre-
ciate the importance OF the issues, and
have entered cheerlully on the labor of
Organization. ''Smail potato" diiIicnl-
ties are all forgotten, or adjourned to such
times as they can do no mischief. The
State is being more perfectly organized
than ever before. An organization SINH
larly close in Illinois would carry the
State for Scott, without doubt.
FuoM Ouro.-A gentleman from Ma
honing county, Ohio, writes TO the New
York tribune: = Never again put down
Ohio as one of the doubtful States. In
diana and Michigan may be doubtful, but
Ohio is for Scott Every body is salts
fled with SCOTS nomination, and those
who left us on Taylor are coming back
by hundreds. Many who voted for Gen.
Cass, will now vote for Hale. have
rarely been mis;aked in the vote of any
State, and cannot be now" Hon. d. r.
Tilden has written long letter TO Mr..
Giddings, giving his reason for support
ing Gen. Scott. 1t is published in pam
phlet form, is an able production, and
will exert good influence.
HARnoSY REsroRED.-Thc Wings Of
New York seem to have forgotten all
their old differences, and march maniully
up to the work of rolling upa 10000
majority for Scott. For the next two
months nothing short of house on fire
can make New York Wing turn from
his purpose.
New YORK AND New JERsEY.-7h
People in CouacH-Thc New York Tri-
bune says, twenty thousand Wings turned
out in New York city, TO welcome the
return Of the Wing members OF Congress.
On the ID instant, the Wings of New
Jersey showed that they are not only
thoroughly awake. but enthusiastically at
work for Scott. On that day, there were
some ten thousand live Wings added to
the population OF Trenton. They held a
meeting on the old battle ground. Gov.
Pennington presided. The occasion was
Convention to nominate an electoral
ticket.
a Sign IN PESSsYLvANiA WORTH RE-
CoRD1NG.-A meeting Of Democrats, who
have never voted wing ticket, but who
now go for Scott and Graham, was held in
Hellam township, York county, on Satur-
the 2lst ut One hundred and twenty
Democrats were present, who raised a
pole orer one hundred feet high, to which
was attached flag, on which is inscribed
in large letters: SCOTT. GRAHAM
AND THE CONSTITUTION" The
whole affair was conducted exclusively
by the Democrats. Not Wing was al.
lowed to participate in it, although a num-
Der were present TO witness the perform
ance. We understand that the Democrat.
assembled, had most pleasant and en-
thusiastic time of it. All seemed to en-.
Joy themselves, and boosted that there
were plenty more of their old politica
