The Prospect

The New York Times says.
"The nomination of General Scott commands
throughout the country far more general and
enthusiastic support than has ever before been
extended to any Wing nomination so soon after it
was made. In 1910 and l848, as our readers
will remember, some weeks elapsed before there
was anything like general acquiescence in the
nominations Of Generals Harrison and Taylor
Thousands Of Wings, in all parts Of the country
refused to support them large public meetings
were held to denounce them, and there we're in
both cases symptoms of a general revolt. Now,
there is nothing Of this sort seen in any quarter
One or two New York papers grumble about
supporting the nomination, but their hesitation
finds no countenance or support among the great
body Of the party, and will speedily disappear
before the cordial response everywhere given to
the action of the National Convention. From all
parts of New England, except in Boston, we have
accounts of the most enthusiastic reception of the
nomination--and the dissatisfaction in Boston is
confined TO limited circle, and will soon waste
itself in words.
"At the South, out Of Georg,o, the Wings cor
daily respond to the nomination. In that State,
as was perfectly clear long before the meeting Of
the Convention. no Whg candidate would have
been supported The bargain which made Cobb
governor and Toombs Senator, and which CON-
pletely transferred the Wing party to the ranks
of that hybrid faction by which the contrivers of
it were advanced to power, had struck Georgia
from the list of Whig States, rendering it certain
that her vote would be cast for the Democratic
nominee, long before the name OF either candi-
date was known. But, out of Georgia, through
out the South, there is q universal aud hearty
acquiescence in the action Of the Wing Conven-
ton"

The liquor law in Maine is violently opposed
this season, as destructive to the business inte-

them at the coming election We hope so. Such

SCoTT AND MADISON. : President Madison,
though early persuaded Of SCOTS great quail
ties, nevertheless out of the abundant caution
of his nature, always hesitated at every step of
our heros promotion, (till it came to the last, J
on the ground of his extreme youth. Thus he
thought he was too young when it was proposed
to make him lieutenant colonel, too young when
he was again advanced to the post of adjutaut
general, too young when he was made colonel Of
double regiment, and finally too young when
he was promoted to the place of brigldcr gen
eral. But at last, when, after his then recent
extraordinary services and brilliant successes, il
was proposed in Cabinet to make him major
general, Mr.. Madison promptly remarked, Put
him down major general am done obccting
to his youth. "-Bufato Rough Notes.

LoSG PRAYERs.-In the life of Dr. Worcester
it is said that his public prayers sometimes cx.
tended to forty minutes, and that his brother
Noah had, on one occasion, prayed \ full hour;
and that in those times, if person sat down
during prayer, it was attributed to sudden illness
or to some chronic affection Now the habit N
New England is for all to sit during prayer and
it is question worthy of consideration, whether
the irrevereut practice may not be traced TO such
interminable prayers We have no doubt that II
n minister once gets the reputation Of extending
his prayers to an unreasonable length, he will
sooner or later have a sitting congregation.
