This declaration the southern wings that they must

true, is very significant The northern whig enemies of
the Compromise will then claim that he nominated

that therefore his election will be the condemnation Of
that policy by the people and the promotion of the
who oppose it. This is exactly in harmony with the

Whig Soundness.

The Louisville Journal preparing its way TO come out
for Gen. Scott. discourses as follows

Cen Scott without being thoroughly convinced Of bis

Thus we have the northern wh;g journals, OF every
shade OF opinion, from the New York Tribune TO the
New York Express. maintaining tf,a Gen, Scott is sound
in his determination il elected TO oppose no obstacle TO
the repeal or modification Of the fogve law while, on
the other hand, the southern whg journals who favor
Cen Scott maintain that he is just sound in his deter
mnaon, II elected, TO keep the compromises measures,
Including the fugitive law, safe from all disturbance,
change, or agitation.
The northern wings by great maiontes vote down a
declaration Of the inay peru ,anent obligation Of the
Compromise and they find General Scott sound enough
for them. The southern wings aninoosy that the
Compromise is final djusiment and hep il take the
Journals word for it. are to find General Scott sound
enough for 1sm. "a ,.ss.s.
