We take the following in relation to the Ameri.
can nomination for the Presidentship from the
Richmond Dispatch, a neutral paper:
THE nomination of Mr.. Fillmore for the Presi-
dency of the United States, has been received by
his political friends in Virginia. as far as we can
ascertain, with great enthusiasm. 1t is beyond our
province to ntermeddle in political matters, but
as chroniclers Of the events of the day, we may
be permitted to say that we never knew nomina-
tion to give more satisfaction to party. The
name OF Fillmore in connexion with a nomination
for the Presidency, seemed to come upon his
friends with the enlivcning influence of spring
day after long winter. We had not anticipated
SO speedy nomination. But Mr.. Fillmore seems
to have gone ahead Of his only prominent com-
petitor, Mr.. George Law, with great ease. All
parties agree that it was the very best nomna-
ton the " American" party could have made. Mr.
Fillmore is statesman of eminent ability and ex-
perence, of highly conservative character and
whoever may be brought out by the Democracy,
will find in him foeman worthy of their steel"
