FROM the Portland. State Of Man)
1t is impossible To predict what may be the eff
foet of this nomination on the political prospects
of the country. The high character of Mr. Fill
more, his unquestionabe patriotism. and the dis
tingushed ability which has marked his entire
public career have placed him among the fore-
most men of his time. Scarcely any man since
the days of Washington has retired from the
Presidential chair with more honor han did Mr..
Fillmore and his return thereto is an event by
no means improbable
CFrom the CN, v Troy whls)
"Thls result will be received with Joy through
out the length aud breadth of the Union, and will
everywhere inspire confidence and enlhpsiasn.
With Fillmore and Doneson, the American pnr-
ty enter the Presidential contest under auspic
es as favoroble as its best friends can can de-
sire"
(Fron the Cincinnati Tmes)
In these days of uncertainty OF terms and def
nitians. treachery and tergiycrsaons, past action
is better evidence of character than present prom
Uses for the future. Mr.. Fillmore must be ,a-
ken on the credit of his political career and not
on the assurances Of platforms" about which.
even If men did agree, they necessarily vary IN
the definition OF terms and construction OF doc.
trnes, elementary and complex. The great A.
merlcan party Of the United States can elect Mr.
Fillmore, so let us set abeu, the work at once.
From the Charleston Advcrtser)
ut is a strong ticket and carries with it the
prestige. of success. The latter name has the
solid ring and memory of old Hickory; the for
mer has already won honor by prudent and sa-
gacous craftsmanship The American banner,
with these names inscribed.is full high advanced,
and the children of the country are moving for
ward to sweep away the petty spirits now in pow
er, whose measures have only tended to embroil
the republic in internal and external agitation and
disqulet. lhe American cause is onward"
(trom The Annapoli. Gazetto)
The National Convention of the American par
ty has nominated Willard Fillmore for President
and Andrew Jackson Doneson, of Tennessee,
for Vice President. With pride and pleasure
we endorse the nominations. In our humble o.
pinion no better selections could have been
made; and we have not the slightest doubt that
the people will ratify them by the largest ma
Jority ever given
prom the Nashville Pa,riot)
The intensity Of our rejoicing at the announce
ment we make this morning, cannot be put into
words. Our frame is thrilled with delight Ms we
write or rather attempt to do SO. for in such u
tumut of emotion it is impossible to write we
can only say let every American with loud accla-
nation prolong the shout for FILLMORE and Don
ELsoN. What a glorious ticket! What an irwin
chile ticket
