Gen. Starke offered the following
namely:
Resolved, That the Wings of the Unit
ed States, having an abiding confidence
in the wisdom, patriotism and integrity
of the Hon. Daniel Webster, who can
conquer his own prejudices, and induce
others to do the same, when the inter-
est OF the country and the integrity of
the Union require it, and he therefore
deserves the everlasting gratitude of the
American people
The question being put the resolutions
were adopted with much enthusiasm.
The first ballot for Vice President re-
suited as follows
Graham, a.; Mangum, 10; Pearce, 80;

Ia; Crtttenden, 10; Latimer, /; Petit

8; Jones, 5; Williams,3, Pratt, 2:
A second ballot was then called for.
AS State after State was called. and
the vote given for Mr.. Graham, there
were wild expressions of delight. The
confusion, about the time the calling
Of the roll was completed, was beyond
conception. Gentlemen were standing
in all parts of the hall, everybody APP
peared to be talking, and there was gem
eral joyous feeling manifested. In vain
the chairman, who had talked himself
hoarse, endeavored to enforce order.
The beating of his gravel only tended
to increase the confusion, amid which,
raising his voice to the highest pitch he
announced that VIM. A. Graham, of
North Carolina, was unanimously no.
minated as the candidate for the Vice
Presidency.
Hurra after hurra went up; and loud
was the stamping of feet and claping of
hands, and fresh supply of bouquets
were slowered upon the delegates.
Mr.. Miller, Of North Carolina, return
ed the thanks of the delegation and the
wings of that State for the compliment
which they had paid the distinguished
statesmen, William A. Graham. ave

A MISERABLE POLICY.

The Herald & Torch, Hagerstown, Md,
says, the following paragraph occurred
IN an editorial article in the Mail, a
locofoco paper in that town, in July last.
"The democracy of the country are as
grateful as they are intelligent, and they
are not disposed, like their opponents, to
abandon their friends and their princi-
pies upon the fancied plea of erpe diem
cy. What did the wings gain by throw
ing overheard Henry Clay for General
Harrison? Nothing. What did they
gain by throwing overheard Henry
Clay for Gen. Taylor! Much less than
nothing. And what is there that should
tempt the democracy to abandon old,
traed and true friends for new aspirants
Nothing that we can conceive of-and
we feel proud to see that such misera-
Die policy is not thought of by the tue
and honest democracy of the country.
We agree with the Editor OF the Mail
'that such miserable policy was not
thought of by the true and honest De-
mocracy of the country nor will they
sanction it. They will not consent to
be mere clay in the hands of politica.
tr'cksters, to be moulded by them at
pleasure, into any shape which may best
suit their convenience.
CLOSING SToEEs.-The clerks are pc
t'tioning their employers to change the
hour Of closing stores at night, to eight
O'Clock. We have long been of the
opinion that the clerks in our stores
were overworked.
They generally get their places of bust
ness open by five O'Clock in the morn
ing, and seldom close till ten or eleven
at night. If all the merchants would
agree to close at regular hour, say s
or o'clock-except Saturday nights
il would give the clerks little recrea-
ton, at the same time the employers
would lose nothing.
HE FOURTH OF JULy.-We are re.
quested to notice, that the stores and
other places of business will be closed
on Monday the fifth day of July, to give
those employed therein an Opportunity
OF spending day in celebrating the
National Anniversary.

The New MAN.-The Baltimore Sun
renders itself ridiculous, in the issue of
Thursday last, by advancing the idea
that the Wing Convention followed the
example Of the Locofoco's and took a
"new man. Every body knows that
such is not the fact-that Gen. Scott has
stood prominent before the wing party
as candidate for the Presidency for
many years-that he was the first choice
of a great number, we believe majority
of the wings of the country-that upon
the first ballot he was but two votes be-
hind Mr.. Fillmore, and on the second
ran ahead of either the other candidates.
Contrast this with the nomination of Mr..
Pierce who never received but one vote,
prior to the 35th ballnt-whose name
had never been mentioned in connection
with the Presidency outside of the State
of New Hampshire-who had never
been heard of by at least -fourths
of the people of the United States, for
this Or anything else, and the Sun will
find it hard task to sustain its asser-
ton that "the Wing Convention follows
ed suit" We give the San credit for a
great deal of sagacity, in keeping the
flag of neutrality at ITS masthead while
every body knows it is an out and out
Locofoco paper, but we are of the opn-
ion, that it will require rather more of
this quality, than it can conveniently
muster, to prove Gen. Scott norus homo,
either in convention or out of it.
A CoNTEMpTlBLE BUSINESS BY a
letter from ID correspondent in another
part of the county we learn that efforts
are being made to operate against Gen.
Scott, upon the ground that he is Cath
olc. Going upon the principle that
lie should always be exposed, we state
what we have learned upon good au.
thority, that Gen. Scott is Protestant
Episcopalian, and attends divine worship
regularly in st. Johns Church. Wash
ington. So much for the facts in the
case.
Now of all the means made use of to
electioneer against a candidate. this one
of religion is the most contemplate.
In country whose proudest boast is the
freedom of all its citizens to worship
God according TO the dictates of con.
science, the effort to put down any man,
on account of his religious opinions, is
an evidence of bigotry which every
American citizen should rise above.
The idea of the union of Church and
State in this country, or of exclusive
government patronage or protection to
any one sect, is too absurd to be con-
for moment. The dav has
gone past when this is even desired by
any branch of the church, its whole his
tory having proved, that nothing is more
detrimental to its interests than Gov
eminent protection.

PRosrEcTs OF THE CRops.-The
Snow Hill Shield states that the crops
on the Eastern Shore generally are
promising, although at present the corn
crop is suffering somewhat for rain. The
wheat and oats in Worcester county
promises more than an average yield.
We stated last week that the Wheat
crop in our county is in a promising
condition. We regret to say that sub
sequent information does not corrobor-
ate the statement. Our opinion was
formed from having seen several beauti.
ful crops in the vicinity. In other parts
OF the county, the crop is very much
injured, and in some sections will hard.

THE WING NOMINATIONS. We throw
out our flag this week with the world.
renowned name of GEN. WINFIELD
Scorr inscribed upon it. So far as in.
dividual preferences are concerned, ours
suffer no d,sarrangement when We en-.
dorse fully and heartily this nomination.
Looking entirely to the interests of the
Wing party in the coming election,
Gen. Scott has been our first choice; at
the same time, we have stood ready to
support to the full extent of our power
and ability the candidate designated by
the Convention; well assured, that the
party would not be insulted with one
UNIV orthy of their confidence, or unfit to
occupy the position to which he aspired.
With the announcement of the nomi-
nation comes not the question "Who is
General Scott ?"-nor are we forced to
examine carefully page after page of his
tory to find the bare mention off name.
From one extremity of our country to
the other "Scott" is household word,
while the records of his achievements are
among the brightest pages of our national
history. The heart OF the American
student throbs with pride and exultation
as he reads OF the success of our army
under the command Of Scott; and the
hardy backwoodsman recounts to his
children with enthusiasm the scenes of
border warfare in which this Chiettaln
was leader.
He, who baptised with his own blood
the field Lundy's Lane, has shown in
the everglades of Florida, and the sands
of Mexico, that he knows no North, no
South, nothing but his country and her
rights and honor. The capture of the
Castle of San Juan de UlIoa by the Amer.
'can forces under Gen. Scott is regarded
throughout the civilized world as the
greatest military achievement ever per-
formed; it having beenthe decided opin.
ION of eminent engineers that the for
tress could defy the combined attacks of
half the naval force ofthe world.
Nor is Gen. SCOTS fame confined to
his military career. He has filled var-
Gus civil stations, always with credit TO
himself and honor to his country. In
every emergency he has been found
equal to the task imposed upon him, IN
every fairly contested field he has been
the conqueror, and in November next,
"Scorr AND VIcToRy" will be at once
the rallying cry and the shout of success
Mr.. WILLIAM A. GRAHAM, the candi-
date for Vice President, is at present
Secretary Of the Navy, and his nomina.
ton is every where hailed as an excel
lent selection, both in regard to fitness
and popularity.
We know of no better remark with
which to close this article, than that
used by one of the ablest Wing papers
in the country: "Whigs! this ticket can
and shall be elected; see you to it.''

A MINISTER'S OPINION OF GENERAL
TT.-The Philadelphia North inner
'con says, that in lecture on War, de.
livrred by the late eminent divine, the
Rev. W. E. Claiming, in 1888, this
language is used -
'Much, also, is due to the benelicent
influence OF Gen. Scott. To this dis
tlngulshed man belongs the rare honor
of uniting with military energy and
daring, the spirit Of philanthropist.
HIS exploits in the field, which placed
him in the first rank of soldiers, have
been obscured by the purer and more
lasting glory of pacifcator, and
friend of mankind. In the whole his
tory of the intercourse of civilized COM
munities, we doubt whether a brighter
page can be found than that which re-
cords his agency in the removal of the
Cherokees. As far as the wrongs done
to this race can be atoned for, General
Scott has made the expiation. In his
recent mission to the disturbed borders
OF our country he has succeeded, not so
much by policy as by the nobleness and
generosity Of his character, by moral in
fluence, by the earnest conviction with
which he has enforced on all, with whom
he had to Go, the obligations of Justice,
humanity and religion. 1t would not
be easy to find among us man who has
won purer fame; and would do some
thing, no matter how little, to haste,
the time when the spirit of Christian
humanity shall be accounted an essen.
tal tribute and the brightest ornament of
public man."
