we oheerfolly leave the issue, and enter the field with no apprehension ol defeat. It must be conoedad', that Gen. Scott, with all his adventitious qualities is politically a weak m»n. Strip him of bis military distinction and what claim has he upon Ote popular affections. None whatever. While we would in no wise deprecate his distinguished p.ilitaty services, but accord to bim all the credit and admiration io whiph be i« justly entitled in this respact, the candid and reflecting mind will titer ua out in the assertion that mere military distinction ii not sufficient to qualify an individual for diaohafgeof the exalted duties of Chief Magistrate of tbe country, in addition to this, many of his warmeat political friends have no hesitation in say. ing, thataa a man, he is vain, dictatorial, aristo* oratio and arrogant, with scarcely an attractive frait o? character, and almost entirely destitute of those qualifications necessary for a civil ruler. His proper position it at the 'head ot the Army,' a post to which no one doubts bis right or his capacity, but when he goes without the sphere of his proles* aion, aud seeks honors to which the statesman should alone aspire, he betrays an over-weening ambition that merits a rebuke Irom the people tiea, Scott isran exception to all military chieftains who have hitherto been elevated to the Presidency, in thia remarkable particular, that whereas the offtee aoagbt #Am* be baa aought the His nomination at thia late day, ia no spontaneous trib

gratitude or esteem from his party, butt as die last retort of that party, which makes no pretence of contending for principle, and embraces him finally upon Ae doubtful platform ol 'expediency and availability.* Under thia atete ol a flairs tfte campaign baa commenced.

l0 Iearn |h#t so

llow the Nomination is Received.

The following paragraphs, from the Ne ifork Day-Book, a leading whig paper, which ad sated the claims of Mr Webster, we mbst earnest! commend to the attentive, careful perusal of our righbors of the Courier and Express and all othe eonsidering" whigs. As it is from a leading vh paper, we suppose our neighbors can have no bjection to inserting it in their columns. '•ere is certainly "much more truth than poetry "In the facts here set forth. We trust, therefore, tray will not lightly pass them by, but endeavor to redbaoile them to their own belief. Don't term the pamr aa "apostate" sheet, or you will be compelled ft include some of your best papers in the same ote g°*y.

THE WHIG NOMINATION.—The nomination of Gen. Scott falls like a wet blanket upon tbe whigs of this city. Among all that we met yesterday and heard speak of the nominations, and they were hundredv, we heard but one solitary whig who did not declare that he would not vote for Scott—and

pointed, chogrtnned and mortified beyond espression, and they can vent their feelings in execrating

the means that brought about so contemptible a nomination,. -s I This administration has been a must splendid

times that the country has ever known. The splen did talents of Daniel Webster have shone brighter and displayed more noble traits of character than have been exhibited by any other statesman since the formation of the government. The country re.sponded to the call for him to accept the Secre-

Pointed: everything that he has attempted he has

,ru».s».. .Mxirrixri k. done, and everything that he has done he bias done

Thaf mUnnlA i#|Ut- mnnU mn

well. That the whigs should repudiate such an administration-that it should throw overboard such a man as Daniel Webster, after all that he has done for it, and take up such a conceited ill-tempered and foolish creature at General Scott—is past all comprehension and must be mortifying in (he extreme to every sensible man of the party. It shows what it is composed of, and how contemntible and utter worthless it is in every respect. It baa repudiated Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, John J. Crittenden and Miliard Fllmore for such men as Winfield Scott W. H. Seward, John M. Botts and James C. Jones.

Who wants anything to do with auoh a party? Who will belong to itl who will support It, work for it, and go with it? whof why, the Bloomers, the anti-renters, the Mormons, the Fourierites, the socialists* the spirit rappers, the Abolitionists, and the advocates of women*s rights—the Finkles, tbe Joe Smiths, and the Lloyd Garrieons. The whigs —bah! who will say be it a wbig now! Not we surely. We would ay soon support Greely or Abby Kelly Folsom, as Winfield Scott. Wm. H. Seward, and Sim Draper. Tbe southern whigs may take them and hug tbem to their bosoms, if tbey choose, but tbe Yorkers never will. Perhaps Soott, with bis Abolition supporers here, and John M. Clayton, John II. Bottr, Gov. Jones, and tbe Hon. Leslie Combs in the South, may carry Kentucky, Tennessee and Maryland but you can tell them that Utey will oarry but just one Northern Skate.— They will get Vermont and nothing else. Mark what we say Gen. Soott will carry but ooe State North of Maeon and Dixon'a line, end that will be Vermont, the only State that has nullified the fagi tire slave law.

Mr. Fillmore, we are toMIs perfootly satisfied with the nomination of Gen. Sectt. Considering that he has stood in tbe way of Mr. Webster's nom ination. and done nothing for himself we think IM oogbttobeaastified. Had be withdrawn his name last December, a# be promised, or net lifted bis linger to secure delegates for htmaelf, the result wight have bom different.

The Sages of the Revolution—Their fame rose with American liberty—and only with American libertf can it perish. ... 6. North America—The land of the free and the home of the brave—May her future prosperity be as bright la our past history is glorious.' 7. The Union—h is to us tbe marriage bond of States, only to be dissolved wh^.n nations shall die in a moment, never to rise agfn. 8.

poiuted to as the ensign of i! free and the brave, and under whose folds the oj pressed of every nation can find rest. 10. The Naty—The pro eclian of our commerce, and our country's honor—may its only ambition be to protect and ext«d religious and civil liberty. 11. The Soldiers of 18li-They like Jackson followed in the footsteps of tHeir illustrious fathers. 12. TAe Soldiers of 46—Exhibited to the world the strength of American military genius—their patriotism in answering their country's call and their unprecedented bravery in defending her.j rights should be looked upon with pride and applauded by every American citizen

13. American Eloquence—May it cultivate in

the people of every State a deep and fervent attachment to the Union. 14. The Ladies—In whose virtues rest the future prosperity of our country—may they ever be as they ever have been—in favor of Union. ,v Volunteer Toast*.

Our State—Indiana—Msy her future race be glorious, and may she ever fill the high station among her sisters which she now occupies.

The Ladies—-Not like Napoleon, who conqueted with tbe sword—they conquer by their smiles. The Press of our Country—May it wield its mighty influence only to protect Columbia's Liberty and engrave deeper in the hearts of her sons the blessings of her free institutions.

Hungary—May the next anniversary of our

Tbe exercises at tbe stand were interspersed with fine musto from tbe Middletown choir, onder tbe direction of T. L. Catherwood, and at in'.crvala throughout the day tbe old anvil boomed long and loud. A handsome pole, upon which floated proudly in the breeze our national flag, was raised and standing in tbe town.

The procession, after dinner was over, was again formed and marched book to tbe towa, where tbey were dismissed. Thus ended Saturday tho 3d day of July 1852, in Middletown. ft wasa proud day for ber citizens. May it not be tbe last one. C.
