dispute. We have not heard single sensible man
since the nomination was made yesterday, express
doubt ~ to the election Of this ticket Mr.. Fill
more ID q Statesman whose qualities have already
been tested, In the most trying circumstances, and
he has not been found wanting. lie Is constitu-
tional mana man with the courage and frmness
requisite TO carry out his views and convictions Of
right needless of the threats Of sectional cliques
and parties. No Northern man can honestly object
to him-every Southern man win gladly hail his
nomination as the inauguration of an era Of strict
ly constitutional government.
As TO Mr.. Donslson, we do not well see from
what quarter opposition to him can come. He Is
Southerner--a Democrat--and an American If
with such ticket, the American party cannot
succeed, they had better retire from the field, and
havs the control of political affairs TO other parties
The New York Evening Mirror says:
"ws WIN not attempt to-day to give utterance
to the newborn hopes of the nation, or to trans
late into Jubilant words the joyous thrill that
touches millions of patriotic hearts a. the honored
name OF Fillmore is vibrating the thousand nerves
Of sensation whose electric flaments extend to
the extremities of the Union.
"Of this American ticket, we do not hesitate to
say that we regard IL a. the strongest that could
have been made. Millard Fillmore has proved
himself worthy OF the high Office for which be is
named by having filed It scceptably to the nation
He is patriot without reproach; statesman who
commands the respect Of the world, and citizen
without spot or blemish."
From the Boston Journal
Reserying until we obtain all the facts any fur
ther comments upon the proceedings of the Amer
icsn Council and Nominating Convention, we will
merely remark, that If anything can redeem the
i6rtupes of the American party, il Is the nomina-
ton of 30 excellent candidate for President as
Musrd Fillmore. We are aware that the Aboli-
tieniats and Free-soilers of the North have made
him the object Of their special hatred, but during
the brief term OF his occupancy of the Presiden-
tial chair he administered the affairs of the gov
ernment with degree of wisdom, frmness, and
patriotism--with regard for the welfare of all
sections OF the Union--which won the confidence
Of the people. He is just the man to place at the
helm OF State in this stormy epoch, when porten-
tous clouds lower around US, and through the In
capacity and mismanagement of her present pilot
the good shp is in danger of being broken in frag
Inents on the rock of disunion Millard Fillmore
Is pilot around whom the conservative men of
the country can rally with confidence in his wis
dom, his sound judgment, and his patriotism He
has been tried and proved, and his election to the
Presidential chair would be bright era in the his
tory of our country,
The Berkeley American says:
Proudly we tread beneath our floating banner,
and with exultant heart announce to our friends
this triumphant intelligence. Clap your hands,
raise your loud paans, kindle up your council fres
and let them burn bright and high. Never since
the days of Washington and jefferson did any par
ty present tothe country more unexceptionable
man, one more truly reliable. Let every man,
then, haste to his post faithfully perform his duty,
and victory shall perch upon our standard
The Boston Traveller, neutral in politics, but
frank in the utterance of truth, says:
The stormy and exciting proceedings of the
National Convention on Saturday, and the final
vote for President on Monday, it will be seen, re-
suited in the hearty nomination of Mard Fillmore,
he receiving l79 votes, to 81 for all others The
nomination, we believe, will be well received gem
orally. Mr.. Fillmore is probably as unexception- |
able man could be found--or rather, as could |
have got the nomination-and aa likely to receive |
support on national grounds, as an honest man, |
disposed to do his duty by the whole country, az |
any man on whom the party could have united"
The Boston Courier (opposition) says
The stormy proceedings of this convocation
ended with the nomination of one of the best men
In the Union as a candidate for President"
