Political.


At the meeting Of the anti Nebraska members of
both houses of Congress, the 14th inst, at the
Capitol, the following resolution was unanimously
adopted.
Resolved, That the anti Nebraska members Of
Congress tender to their fellow-citizens of the Uni
ted States their sincere and hearty congratulations
on the recent success of the friends of order JUS
tice, and freedom, in the elections which have
been held in the States of New Hampshire, Rhode
Island, and Connecticut and take pleasure in ac-
knowledging these triumphs, not less on the
ground of the encouragement they afford in our
determined effort to secure the immediate admis-
sion of Kansas into the Union than as cheering
auspices of the speedy restoration Of the true prin-
cples Of the Constitution in the administration of
the Government of the United States.
BENZ. STANTON, President.
WILL. CUnBACK, Secretary.
We copy the above precious document from the
Intelligencer of this morning. The "Republi-
cans" with selfassumption not exceeded by that
of Mr.. augustus Tomlinson, when he walked off
with gentleman's gold headed cane, impudently
arrogate for their party the whole merit of the re-
cent administration defeat in New England. Yet
they know well that in Rhode Island they cast but
one-ffth as many votes as the Americans, and in
Connecticut, but one-fourth as many. As to the
relative strength of the Americans and Repub-
Hcans" in New Hampshire, we have no means OF
deciding, but presume the Republicans there are
also in minority of several thousands.
If impudence and falsehood can succeed, the
" Republicans" are on the high road to victory.

North Carolina Convention.

The Wilmington Herald of Monday evening con-
tans full report of the proceedings of the Amer
lean State Convention Of North Carolina, held at
Greenboro' on the 10th and lIth inst
Hon. Sion Fl. Rogers presided over the Conven,
ton, and among its members were many of the
ablest men in the State. The Convention was un.
usually large and enthusiastic.
The Convention ratified the Philadelphia nomi-
nations, and adopted the Philadelphia platform.
Hon. John A. Gilmcr, Of Guilford, was unani-
mously nominated for the Office of Governor On
entering the Convention he was enthusiastically
greeted. He then addressed the Convention, ac-
cepting the nomination, and pledging himself to
make thorough canvass of the State.
L. B. Carmichael and John w. Cameron, were
elected candidates for electors at large.
j. II. Haughton, Eco, addressed the Conven-
ton, stating that in conversation he had with the
Hon. John P. Kennedy, that morning, that gentle
man had assured him that Mr.. Fillmore would ac-
cept the nomination of the PARTY, for President
Mr.. Kennedy is one of the confidential friends of
Mr.. Fillmore, is believed to be authorized to speak
for him, and therefore this statement may be
considered as settling the question, as regards
MS hcCcpbhnCc VI ueciinhtion VI Tie nOLninduOn
Mr.. Kennedy happened to pass through Greensbo-
ro' on Thursday, on his way to Columbia.
JOHN WEsTwoRrH's TIcKEr.-Long John Went
worth, of Chicago. somewhat celebrated in former
years for his operations in government stationery,
nominates the following ticket to wit:-For Presi-
dent, John g. Fremont of California. For Vice
President, N. p. Banks, of Massachusetts,.
The New York Evening Post reminds Went
worth that there was Whig party once, and that
it may wish to say something about part of the
ticket.
We presume the Post wished to insinuate that
Joshua r. Giddings would be preferred by the Re-
publican Wings to Mr.. Banks
RUNoRs.-The Washington correspondent Of
the New York Commercial Advertiser thus re-
ports:
The nomination of Mr. Seward by the Republi-
can convention at Philadelphia is considered AZ
possible, and even probable.
There Is manifest intention on the part Of some
of Mr.. Seward's Republican friends to nationalixe
him. 1t was, some months ago, reported here
that Mr.. Seward desired to get out Of the Aboli-
ZIONIST party, and put himself In competition with
Mr.. Fillmore, Judge Mclean, Colonel Fremont,
and others who might be taken up at the Phila-
delphia Republican convention.
Governor Wise has, it is said, written private
letter stating that he is for Mr. Buchanan but that
Mr.. Buchanan win be rejected in the Cincinnati
convention. This looks to the possibility that Mr..
Buchanan will or may go for Governor Wise. The
Americans say that they can certainly carry Vir-
ginia for Fillmore in opposition to Governor Wise
should the latter be the Democratic candidate.
