THE PRESIDENCY.

We learn this morning, BY telegraph,
that the Kentucky Wing State Conyen.
ton Yesterday appointed Delegates to
the National Convention favorable to
the nomination Of Mr.. Fillmore, as the
Wing candidate for the Presidency.
This movement, taken in connection
with the proceedings Of the Central
Committee Of Maryland, and other de
demonstrations, indicates, in very
significant manner, the concentration
of the public sentiment in favor Of a
man whose merits extort the praise
and applause even Of his opponents,
and who, like President Monroe, seems
to be living down all the objections
even Of the most captious.
Ii is undoubtedly time for the peopIc
of the United Staies-we mean all
those, Of every party, who desire to see
maintained the present blessed reign
of equity, moderation, good faith and
'dignity--to take steps to insure its con-
tinuance. What better thing can be
imagined for the next FIVE years than
the ascendancy of the same upright
principles, the same just counseis, the
same pure and disintercsted conduct.
IN all respects, which have guided and
governed--and which all men admit
have guided and govemcd--the present
administration. What more yirorons
and successful management Of foreign
affairs? - what more firm, vet mild
and conclliatory administration of do. |
mestic concerns can be hoped for or
desired! III
Respected abroad for our justice and
naglianimity - prosperous, peaceful
progressive, on every acre Of our vast
territory--what motive can sensible
grateful, 9 rejecting people have for
my changes But it is not to be dis.

present administration are thus un,yer.
ally acknowledged, there is danger

have, however, been forced into Congressional

anxious to have agitation cease. The very first
