Another Good Ticket odd wilson
has done We'll.

We learn that the Senatorial and County
Convention, at Lebanon, on Monday last,
nominated for Senator from Wilson and De
Kalb Hon. JORDAN Stokes, of Wilson-for
Representatives from Wilson, WN. l.. MARTIN
aud JouN Il. DAVIS. These are nominations
eminently lit to be made" Col. STOKES, OF
Wilson, has State reputation for ability,
legislative experience, and dignity of char
acter, and he will be an ornament to the po-
sition he is designed to ill. Col. MARTIN has
also large experience a. a legislator, and will
be leading member. II we mistake not,
Mr.. DAVIS has also seen service in that Ca
paeily heretofore, aud will worthily repre-
sent the constituency which has honorvd it.
self By the nomination Of such a ticket.
Let the example of Davidson aud Wilson
be Initiated by every county In the State.
Let strong mep represent our cause in ev-
cry county, and the Opposition can secure a
majority in the Legislature aud Iriumphantiy

The Paraguay Expedition.

By way Of England we have three days
later news from Montevideo and BuenOs Ayres
aud four or five days later news from Parana.
One item of some Importance is that General
Urauiza. the President of the Argentine Con-
federation. who had left his estancia at San
Joseto meet the United States Commissioner
at Parana, for the purpose of offering his
mediation in our difficulties with Paraguay,
on the 18th of January embarked with his
family aud such on board President Lopez :
steamer, Salto de Guayre, for Paraguay. He
was at Corrientes late on the 10th, and was
To proceed at once 10 Asuncion. The official
paper, Nacional Argentine. published al
Parana, SAYS that General UrquiZa's mission
is undertaken with the object of offering the
good offices OF the Confederation in the
quarrel between Paraguay and the United
States, aud with the hope of thus being able
to avoid a recourse to arms A letter dated
Mt Buenos Ayres on the 9th January states
that there is a probability OF a peaceful SCI tie
ment of the difficulty. COMMISSIONS Bowlin
had had an interview with the Pleuipoten-
tiaries OF the Paraguay Government, and
they had expressed an anxious desire for a
fair. Just. and peaceful arrangement with tn.
United States They further stated that they
were authorized 10 form a treaty with the
United States similar to those with England,
France. and Sardinia, and were willing "a
leave to arbitration whatever claims the
United States or its citszens might have
against Paraguay. Mr.. BoWlin made nc
positive answer, but was 10 meet the
PlenIpOtentiaries at the city OF COrTieute'
within thirty days.--.Naf. L,tfeiligsslosT.

montgomery I'm Fuotion.

From GAINESVILLE we learn that very large
and enthusiastic County Convention assem-
bied there on Monday last. Resolutions were
adopted unanimously, endorsing the platform
of the State Convention. The nomination of
JOHN NETHERLAND was ratified by aeclama-
ton. NEEDHAM B. DUDLEY, Esq, was nomina-
ted as the candidate for the Legislature. and
being present, accepted in stirring speech.
He will bring the majority in Montgomery
up to the highest mark. He is farmer and
a retired lawyer-a man of cultivation and
well informed on political subjects.
JSo. F. House, Esq., one of the most gifted
and eloquent speakers in the State, entertain
the audience with one of his happiest efforts,
and the meeting adjourned amid shouts of en-
thusiasm.
The convention to nominate a candidate
for Senator from Robertson, Montgomery and
Stewart will meet at Dover on the first Mon.
day in May.

Col. Netherlands Acceptance.

With thrill of satisfaction which defies
expression, we spread before our readers this
morning, the letter OF JOHN NETHERLAND, in
reply to the committee informing him of his
nomination for Governor. He accepts prompt
ly and heartily the call of his country, and
with characteristic gallantry announces his
intention to make an earnest canvass in be-
half Of the principles announced by the Con-
ventiOn, and against the wickedness and cor
rupsion of Democracy. The letter is brief,
but brim-full of meaning. Beneath the blows
which his lusty arm will administer, the
naughty crest of Democracy will be laid low.
Mark the prophecy.
We extract the letter from the Knoxville
Wing of the 9Th inst.
n RnGERsvn.LE. 3lst March, 1859.
Hessre J. W Richardson, A NJ Loonev. j.
B. Cooke, w. G.. Brownlow, and George L.
Holmes:
Gentlemen Your letter of the goth inst,
was received to-day, with the proceedings of
the Convention, apprsing me of my nomina-
ton rs a candidate for Governor, at the APP
preaching election, and containing an earnest
request from you that L accept the position
assigned me.
Believing, as do. in the correctness of the
principles declared in the Resolutions of the
Convention. and opposed, as l am, to the pres
ent party in power, and to their extravaganza
and waste Of the public treasure, | accept the
nomination rendered me by the Convention,
and will devote whatever ability possess, to
a full discussion of the principles involved in
the canvass.
Very Respectfully,
