the patentees who addressed the Office in relation

NOMINATIONS ron THE Presidency. - Several
newspapers have raised their colors for different
candidates for the Presidency. Among them we
notice the nomination of the Hon. VIM. R. Smith,
Of Alabama, by various papers The American
Convention viii ere long settle the matter in re-
gard to their choice for this eminent and RESPONSE
Bile office We have no doubt they will act with
deliberation and wisdom. Judge Smith has done
a great deal to advance the cause of Americanism.
His speech in Congress last session was not.only
noble specimen of oratory, but timely and most
important exposition of American principles. The
speech ought to be read by every politician in the
land, and placed in every family. Judge Smith
was the first in Congress to expose the intrigues
and aggressions of the Jesuits in this country, and
every member of Congress ought to exhibit the
same patriotism. Y Crusader.
In connexion with the name of Hon. William r.
Smith, several papers have hoisted the name OF
Henry j. Gardner for the Vice Presidency. This
would be very strong ticket. Judge Smith comes
from the Democratic party and Governor Gardner
comes from the Wing party. With union of
National Americans North, South, East and West,
the American party could carry such ticket in
triumph to the White House in '56--Boston Bee.

MR. EDIToR: Embracing your kind invitation
to canvass the claims Of the various American can
didates for the Presidency, l respectfully submit
the name of Sam Houston of Texas. In every
section Of the Union, East, West, North, and
South, he is unquestionably the most available
candidate. speak candidly, and hope without
offence, upon this subject, because, like you, am
prepared to stand by the nomination.
II the American party desire to place the cleo
ton of its candidate beyond the shadow Of doubt,
let its convention place before the people that
rue-hcarted American and noble statesman, Sam
Houston, and the result is a fixed fact
He win heal up the sectonalism that has unfor-
tunately crept into our ranks, and, except in two
or three Southern States he will sweep the sham
Democracy into utter oblivion.
AS our candidate for the Vice esidency, let
us place alongside Of Houston Daniel UllmanD, or
Erastus Brooks, Of New York, or Governor Gard
ner of Massachusetts,, and | soletnnly aver that
no nomination made by any other party can for a
moment be regarded as a very serious obstacle in
our path to victory. The sham Democracy dread
his name in the campaign, His fitness for the Of.
fee no one will successfully question. His record
Is untarnished, and his brilliant military career
renders him aimose omnipotent before the people.
These are the sentiments of thousands of people
of the Keystone State, and we earnestly ask for
an Opportunity" to make them good.

WASHINGTON, July %.
The acluittal of Herbert occasions no sur
prise here, considering the manner in which
the Jury sas empanneled, and the manifest
leaning Of the Judge. Men were allowed to
sit on this trial, who, upon interrogation by
the counsel, admitted they had formed and
still entertained opinions ~ TO the merits Of
the case; and others were in the box, though
well known to be identified with the most
partisan and intoerant order of Know
Nothinsi-m, and who consider killing an
Irishman u peculiar claim to favor. The
verdict was received with uproarious demon
strations Of applause, a. if Democratic
triumph had been achieved, or..some honorable
object attained. 1t WA the occasion Of re-
joicing last night among the select spirits
who, by their zeal throughout this prosecu.
ton, showed they had common purpose to
serve. Since the principle has been thus set
tied, it is to be hoped the Washington hotel
keepers will provide reviewers - standing
dish for the protection Of their guests and
servants, as the law provides none.
