RfsolUeG, That Millard Fillmore President of
the United States, deserves hearty and enthu-
siasc gratitude for the true constitutional and pa
ttiotc principles on which he has administered the
! Government, and that the Wings Of the United
States will ever look on his Administration as one
Oh the most successful and patriotic in history
The above resolution was offered by Mr. Ely q
Scott delegate from Ohio, and was unanimously
! adopted by the convention at Baltimore. The re-
solution, we see il stated, received with enhu-
siasuc applause, accompanied by the waving Of
hats and throwing Of bouquets. This afford. but
another evidence that the whigs of the country
duly feel and appreciate that the Adminisr ration
OF President Fillmore has added lustre to the char
acter OF the country abroad, and placed on a foun-
dation more solid than ever its extended and va
rious interests at home He came into office when
internal disseDeions rife, and treason TO the
Constitution stalked abroad; when the higher law
doctrines in the North, and secessionism in the
South, reared their hideous forms, and threatened
the overthrow OF our glorious and happy Union;
when the stoutest hearts quailed the more timid
despaired when it required Weldon and pa triotism

which prescnted themselves in the way OF the sue
cessful administration of the Government Great

the result.
Like most public officers who arc in the publio
service in times of trial and danger, and who dare
TO do their duty regardless Of the public clnmor he
has had much TO contend with and TO overcome; no
has been rCyiled and vlilied, at times by those
whose duty it was to sustain him; but his triumph
is complete. The policy of his Administration is
endorsed by the great body Of the whig party.
and that, we happen to know, will be infinitely
more gratifying to him than any nomination for
reelection would have bccn.- EhiIadelphia Netos.
