Our space being all occupied last week with more important matter, we could not say in reply to the statement made by the Denton Union, that the 'items furnished that paper, touching the formation of certain Comnsttee, are entirely false. The following is what has been imposed upon the Union: "The idea of forming that committee, We are credibly informed, originated with the candidate of Tile Wig and his friends in Baltimore" The man who reported the above to the Union, lies unqualifiedly, and we can prove it. If the Union doubts what we say, it can be fully satisfied by applying to the State Central Committee, or it's officers Tile Wig has no candidate but we infer who the Union means. What The Wig has said about this matter, has been in the interest of the Republican party and not in the interest of any individual. We pass unnoticed the angry invective of the Union, and request that ace be held responsible for what appears in Tile Wh1A and no other parties. 1t is very evident that the Union has been imposed upon by false information, and we hope it will hest tate in future before accepting any state Mcnt from the same source.

The State Convention of the National Demo. crats, of Michigan have no minated Gen. Cnss, as a candidate for the next Presidency. Consider able importance may perhaps be attached to this political movement, since it would not probably bave been made without general understand ing and strong pledges that it should be backed by the Southern Democracy. Many are the in dicatlons, these days, indeed, that such an at. tempt is about to be made; and what is still more surprising, to be made too. with the expec- tation of receiving efficient help from the Hun ker portion Of the whig party, who hive already sgni6ed, that in case it shall be found a whig candidate of the compromise, or Webster and FILLMORE stamp, cannot be ELECTED, they shall prefer the election OF II national democrat.
