MR. RJCH8NAN NOMINATED!

onr readers the fact thai the great favorte Of Penn
sylvania has been placed in nomination he stand
ard bearer Of the Democracy at the approaching
PRESIDENTIAL Election. On the 18th ballot he was
nominated by arclamation, having received the vote
OF every delegate the convention, amidst the most
rapturous and enthusiastic applause. As was anticl-
pated the action of the convention has been hailed
With degree of feeling and enthusiasm before
witnessed in this country and the indications in the
cold Keystone leave room for doubt that hls
majority, in his State will exceed that ever CIV
en- any since the adoption Of the Constitution
under which 1--we. All sections OF the Union a.
dorse the nomination, and every Democratic Press
| in the Uniteds States carries his name at the
mast head, beautiful exemptfcation OF the pure
principles by which our party is controlled. Thou
sands of old line wings will be found rallyiug with
| the Democracy under the banner OF BUCHANAN aud
| BREckESRIpGE-and, for every man the Democracy
has lost in the reckless and degraded K. \. organi-
zation, we Will gain ten patriotic wbigs who will
unite permanently with the great National Democ
rscy. In the nomination Of JoHN c. BEEcKENEIpGE,
of Kentucky, FOR Vice President, we have name
worthy 10 be associated with that Of BUcHANAE.
The Penasglranian, in referring 10 the nominations
makes the following pointed and judiciops remarks ;
"To the people of Pennsylvania this inteli-
gence will prove peculiarly grateful. Though
she bas long occupied the position off leading
State Of the Uulon, and deseFredly won the
proud title of the keystone Of the Federal Arch,
by her devotion 10 the Union and her unlln-
ching adherence 10 just principes, the ardent
desire to furnish from among her distinguished
sons a Chief Magistrate, which has animated
her, was long disregarded by her sister States
Patiently and cheerfuliy she has bowed to their
decision, however painful she may have deenl-
ed it, but now that her choice has been at
length respected, and her ardent PRAYER answer
ed, her oy and gratitude are boundleSs, and
from the length and breadth of her dominion,
ifom her deep valleys, her mountain hill tops,
her cavernous mines, her fair fields, her work
shops, heT towns and cities, and from her hardy
sons in every nook and corner Of the State as
cends joyous feon Of thanksgiving, and SEN
timent Of intense gratitude 90 the Cincinnati
Convention for the auspicious termination Of lis
lahorS.
With BrcHANAx as our leader in Pennsylv Iva
MIA, the question is not who will 90 for U.s. but
where are 10 find antagonists. The natural
sentiment Of State price, which we ale SURF. our
sister States will pardon os for possessing, and
the enthusiastic attachment OF our citizens to
their intimate acquaintance with him, will be
manifested in Novpn,ber by majority 10 his fa-
vor unprecedented 10 the political annals of our
i Commonwealth.
md while hls name will prove tower Of
strength here, W. confidently anticipate like
result in all sections Of the Union. No Amer
lean statesman is imbued with more thorough
lv national spirit than Mr.. Buchanan. No
l,. 81 l.
inent. He has proved himself the trusty friend
and tried advocate of the true Interests of all
sections, and fairly won the confidence of the
citizens of the North, South, East and West, by
The eIoquence and ability with which be has
defended those principles best calculated TO bro
mote the common welfare of ALL
Mr.. BUCHANAN is now in the sixty-fifih year
of his age, and happily unites 10 that RPS aad
rare experience which long connection with
public affairs IN the most elevated positions has
bestowed upon him, all toe vigor Of perfect
physical and intellectual health. If elected. of
which we do NOT entertain particle Of doubt,
he viii bring to the Presidential chair spirit
Of wisdom and degree Of administrative ability,
which cannot fail to De in the highest degree
advantageous TO the welfare of the country
He has passed through every intermediate grad.
OF official PoaitIon between the private citizen
and the Chief Magisiracy, and wherever tired,
; has been found competent and faithful.
: In the Legislature Of Pennsylvania, in the
Congress and the Senate the United States, as
Minister to Russia and to England, aud as a
member Of the -llluStrious Cabinet of Mr.. PoLK,
: he has served his country long and we'll No
duty committed to his charge was ever neglect
ed, no iust expectation disappointed. To every
position he has brought spirit of calm wisdom
and conscientious desire to discharge " il pre-
eminent fidelity his duties. ln all the posts he
has occupied his unblemSHed character, his
sterling integrity, his great talents and his as
slduous devotion TO the public service have rem
dered him man of marked influence. No
stains blot his fair escutcheon. No dark cloud
dims the lustre of his fame, and his private, like
his public character, is stainless and unnpeach-
! able.
IT is source Of particular qualification, in
view Of the existing condition of public affairs,
that statesmen of such Acknowledged ability.
Of snth proved worth and administrative skill,
of such sound conservative national sentiments
as Mr.. BUcHANAN. has received the Democratic
nomination. No reasonable man, Of anv party,
can doubt that the destinirs Of this nation will
De quite as safe in his keeping as it committed to
The hands Of any other man in the countrv.-
The conviction that by his election to the Pres
: idency, 'the right man VIII be installed in the
right place." IS widespread and almost nniver-
sal. TO his administration all may look forward
with confidence and hope, and all feel that
whatever 7erils may surround us, prudent
able, devoted, Upright and sagaeons patriot will
watch with slecPless vigilance, over the welfare
of the nation.
