ResOlUed, That in Franklin Pierce, the
Democratic nomonee for the Presidency,
we recognize the citizen, soldier and
statesman and in VIM. r. King, the Dem

we recognize the well-tried Patriot and
able civilian and in each we behold, the

constitutional union.
RESOLVED, Therefore, that this meeting,
in behalf of the Democracy of Harrison

the heart; and for this reason, if none
other, it was not fit occasion for indig-
nation meetings, and unconstitutional re-

while the Executive entertained view of
the testimony and law of this case which
would have precluded him from acting
otherwise, finding himself clothed with
the attribute of mercy, while he as TO
slaves is required to act in quasi Judi
cial capacity, he, for the purest of motives
connected with public policy, preferred to
base the act of Communication, in part, on
the ground of humanity and mercy And
even for this he was condemned by the

Delegates, that the fault and blame in
this case should attach to the laws of the

SLAVES, shall be taken from the Governor
and Courts-if it is thought the spirit of
the age, or public policy demands such an
amendment of our Code, am ready to
give it my acquiescence if not my sane

ton, 1 will introduce such bill into the
House at the adjourned session.
Whatever l have said of the political
complexion given this question in the
House, no part of it was intended to refer
to my highly esteemed colleague { Mr.

on this, as some other subjects, refused to
follow where reckless politicians lead.

resist any unconstitutional encroachmont

South by the general Government at any
hazard and to the last extremity am
ready to renew that pledge, and you are
ready to redeem it, if, unhappiIy, the oc-
casion shall arise. But do ask, nay,

The Southern Wings generally groan and
growl over the nomination, We are hap
ply to find that the Wing party of the
North is not entirely without It's consola-
ton. Their course appears to have re-

their ranks. We copy the following from
that leading Wing journal the Boston
Courier:
Frederick Douglass, in his last pa

General Scott as an encouraging sign of
the times. He rejoices over the defeat
of Webster and Fillmore, but denounces
the nomination of Vice President"

Gen. Scntt,s Ynnitr.

"Hasty Soup" Fuss and Feathers"
and numerous other phrases indicative OF
Gen. SCOTS bcsetting enthusiastically
'-wo'd be constantly kept before the eyes
of the people in the event Of his nomina-
ton for the Presidency. We never doubt
ed that his vanity was equal TO the pea
cocks but, at the same time, we never
conceived the thought that his present
expressive name-Winfeld- manu-.
featured by himself, nor that the credit
for its significance was due to this same
foible. A correspondent of the Richmond
Examiner, however, says that he has
heard it stated as an indisputable fact,
that the name by which General Scott was
in his childhood christened, was Wing
field-"he being, on his mothers side, OF
the respectable old Virginia family of the
Wingdelds." This correspondent con
tinucs
'In Alabama, twenty odd years ago,
knew handsome young fellow named
Scott, from Dinwiddie, or some adjacent
county lin Virginia who said he was
nephew of the General, and who told me
that his uncle had dropped the q from his
name in the early part of his military ca
reer, for the sake of the more suspicious
and imposing sound of Winfield"
If the above statement is true, General
Scott has done one of the most con,cmp-
tible acts of which great man was ever
guilty His vanity is weakness which
must have been assiduously cultivated and
encouraged for the last thirty years and
nothing else than an overwhelming de-
feat by the soldiers who fight under the
banner of Democracy can convince him
that he is comfy man" He will pro.
badly make the discovery about the time
of the next Presidential election. Yiy0.
