How (ten. Scott's Nomination was received.
(ritaf Dissatisfaction —over the left.
We take the following from our exchanges.
They exibit the enthusiasm with which Scott's
nomination was welcomed by the people.—
Demonstrations of this nature were made in
all parts of the country.
BROOKLYN*. —Last evening a salute of 100
Churubusco guns were fired from the Heights
in honor of the nomination of Scott and Gra
ham. The Whigs generally appear greatlv
rejoiced at the result.
JERSEY ClTY. —Here the enthusiasm for
Gen. Scott was of the right stamp, and the
fires of Cerro Gordo were lighted in earnest.
NEW HAVEN.— The Whigs of this city fired
a national salute of thirty-one guns in honor
of the Hero of Chippewa.
BOSTON*. —The friends of the nominee fired
100 guns on the commons in honor of the
nomination.
SALEM.—A spontaneous meeting of the
W liigs of this city was held this evening, at
which the following resolution was passed
unanimously:
Resolved, That the Whigs of Salem take
this early occasion to ratify the nomination
of Gen. Scott for the office of President of
the United States, and to assure their Whig
brethren throughout the country that they
will bring to his support the full strength
with which they swelled the majority of his
predecessor in the glorious campaign of 1844.
PORTLAND. —We are now firing one-hun
dred guns f*r Scott and Graham. The Whigs
are in fine spirits, and are celebrating the
occasion witli rockets, fireworks, Ac.
BANGOR. —The Whigs are giving evidence
of the most hearty rejoicings at the nomina
tion of Scott. One-hundred guns are now
being fired, and the city is generally illumi
nated by the friends of the nominees.
KINGSTON. —The Whigs weke up the echoes
of 1848 with a hundred guns for " Old Chip
pewa' and his twin brother victory.
ALBANY. —Gen. Scott's nomination was re
ceived with great enthusiasm. The Whigs
forthwith fired 1-58 guns, which strongly re
minded the affrightened Locos of the storming
of Chepultepoc. The ' Democracy' are in
consolable.
DETROIT. —The greatest enthusiasm prevails
at the nomination ol General IScott. Within
one hour of the reception of the news of his
nomination, three hundred guns were fired in
this city, amid the most hearty cheers of an
immense assemblage. A ratification mooting
will be held as soon as the nomination of
\ ice President is received.
CINCINNATI. —There was a great excite
ment among the politicians on Saturday, but
the Whigs were most agreeably disappointed
when Gen. Scott's nomination was announced
yesterday, and the most -evident satisfaction
is manifested by the party here. The news
•was first received via Chicago, from New
York.
RICHMOND, Va~, June 22. —The nomination
of Gen. Scott has given satisfaction to
the Whigs of this city. The Whig heartily
endorses the nominations, and predicts that
the Whigs of the South will rally to the sup
port of Die ticket.
CiiAMivEitsiiUßu, June 23.—The nomination
of Gen. Winfield Scott was received here
yesterday with the wildest enthusiasm. Bells
were rung, and the most hearty cheers greet
ed us on all sides. An immense ratification
meeting for our town was held last night,
which was addressed by several of our most
prominent speakers. Look out for the Har
rison times of 1840.
WORCESTER, June 22.—A ratification meet
ing was held here last evening, which was
pretty largely attended. A salute of one
hundred guns were fired.
LYNN, (Mass.) June 22.—The news of the
nomination of Gen. Scott was received in
this city with great enthusiasm. Salutes
were fired, &c.
READING, June 22, 1852.—The nomination
of Gen. Scott was received with the liveliest
applause. In less than half an hour after
the despatch was received, a detachment of
the Ringgold Artillery, under command of
Lieut. Dorrell, was on Peon's Mount, and
tired a national salute of thirty-one guns.—
On the opposite side of the river, an old revo
lutionary piece under charge of S. Bertolot,
Esq., responded in thunder tones. The
heart warming strains of ' Old Tippecanoe'
surrounded through the streets. Many who
would have voted for no other Whig candi
date have declared themselves in favor of the
hero of Mexico. The whigs now consider
that they have the thing in their own hands,
and will do their duty.
The Locos are completely chap-fallen.—
Their hopes were that cither of the other
candidates, or a new man, would be nominat
ed. Not the least gratifying feature in the
nomination of Gen. Scott, is the cordiality
with which it was received by the supporters
of the other distinguished candidates at Bal
timore.
TRENTON, Monday, June 21. —The news
of the nomination ol General Scott was re
ceived here this afternoon, amidst the greatest
enthusiasm of the Whigs and of all our cit
izens. Gen. Scott will carry New Jersey by a
larger majority than either Clay or Taylor.
You cannot imagine the degreeof enthusiasm.
New Jersey will show where she stands.
Loi'isvi LLE, Ky., Juue 20. —The ratifica
tion meeting held by the Whigs, on Saturday
night, at Memphis, is said to have been the
largest and most enthusiastic ever held by
the party in that city. The Tennessee pa
pers received, say that greater enthusiasm
lias never been manifested than that now
evinced by the Whigs of that State.
CINCINNATI, June 28. —The Whigs of this
city held a Scott, ratification meeting, last
night, at which not less than 8000 persons
were present. Sixth street and Market space
was densely packed with the assembled mas
ses. The Gazette Office was brilliantly il
luminated, guns wero fired, .and musical per
formances added to the enthusiasm of the
occasion.
BOSTON, June 20. —The Whigs of this city
held a ratification meeting to-night, at Fau
euil Hall. A large number of persons were
present, and great enthusiasm prevailed. —
Among the cheers given were three for
Daniel Webster. Hon. R. C. Winthrop pre
sided, assisted by sixty Vice-presidents. In
taking the Chair, Mr. Winthrop very feeling
ly and with great eloquence alluded to the
death of Henry Clay, and then passed on to
speak of the object for which the meeting
had assembled. After speaking of Mr. Web
ster in glowing terms, he said that Massa
chusetts was bound to abide by the choice of
the Whig National Convention. He conclu
ded by pledging his support to Gen. Scott,
and his remarks were well received and loud
ly applauded. Hon. L. V. Bell, Col. NVthor
-1 and, of Tennessee, Hon. Win. Brandsford,
of Kentucky, and others, also addressed the
meeting; after which, the resolutions were
j tad, declaring adherence to the Whig
platform, and purpose to abide by the action
<f the Convention, and yield a cordial sup- j
port to Scott and Graham.
W ASHIMJTON, Juno 28.—The Whig ratifica
tion meeting, adjourned from last Wednesday
evening, owing to the storm of rain, re-assem
bled to-night at the City Hall. The opening
of the meeting was preceded by the firing of
a salute of thirty-one guns in the City Hall
square. The stand was occupied by tiie offi
cers chosen at the last meeting, and about
8 o'clock the Whigs of the various wards ar
rived in procession, with banners and trans
parencies, when the meeting was called to or
der by Ex-Mayor Lenox, the President, who
opened it with an eloquent address, and in
troduced a scries of resolutions complimenta
ry to President Fillmore and Daniel Webster,
and warmly endorsing the nomination of
Gen. Scott and Win. A. Graham. The as
semblage was then addressed by the Hon. J.
W. Miller, of New Jersey, J. It. Chandler, of
Pennsylvania, Morehead, of North Carolina,
and Wm. Cullom, of Tennessee, in eloquent
and happy remarks. The meeting was kept
up to a late hour, and was decidedly the
largest ever convened in this city. For the
first time the City Hall was brilliantly illumi
nated, presenting a fine appearance. There
were three bands of music in attendance, and
to crown the whole, a large number of ladies
graced the occasion with their presence.
Throughout the city, bonfires were lighted,
and in short, the greatest enthusiasm pre
vailed.
LOUISVILLE. June 28.—The Whig Ratifica
tion Meeting held here on Saturday night
was most enthusiastic, surpassing the cam
paign of 1840. Speeches were made by the
Hon. Sherrard Williams, Hon. Thomas F.
Marshall, Mr. Upton of Louisiana, and sever
al others.
THE SCOTT FEELING IN MICHIGAN. —Gen.
John R. Williams, one of the prominent op
position politicians, and for several years
Mayor of Detroit, supports the election of
Scott and Graham, and is one of the Vice-
Presidents of the Detroit Scott Club. Major
Jonathan Kearsley, of Detroit, who was bad
ly wounded in the defence of his country,
and a leader in the opposition party, is for
Scott. These are important accessions to the
Scett phalanx, and an indication of public
sentiment in the North-west. Gen. Williams
signalized himself in the Black ilawk War.
and is an old resident of Detroit, possessed
of much influence.
THE LADIES GOT WET. —About one thousand
ladies, who went to Dorchester, on Tuesday,
to attend the consecration of the new Ceme
tery. got most thoroughly drenched in the re
markable shower that raged at that time. A
friend who was present describes them as most
sorry looking creatures, straight, tall, slim, long
faced affairs, looking as though they were
ready to enter the cemetery in another capa
city than as spectators, it was utterly im
possible for them to gain shelter, and thus for
two long hours they were oh Hired to submit
to the hydropathy of heaven. Beautiful bon
nets, handsome silks fastidiously starched
muslins, new and rich de laines, all were
soaked, undone, ruined. The sex—so brave
in dress, so beautiful in color—in one short
hour lost all its poetry, all its fine sentiment,
all its delicious philosophy.— Huston Bee.
The X. 11. Legislature has at last repealed
the law '* relating to personal liberty," which
prohibited any person not an United .States
officer, from assisting in the arrest or detec
tion of a Fugitive Slave.
A GENERAL FIRE ALARM. —In Boston, on
Tuesday night, when the storm commenced,
the lightning so acted on the wires of the
Flee trie Fire Alarm, that all the bells through
out the city which are included in the circuit,
struck as powerfully as when operated for an
alarm.
YV lug State Convention.
The following resolutions were reported to
the Whig State Convention, by J. W. Kil
linger, Esq.. from the committee of five, and
adopted by acclamation:
Resolved, That the Whigs of Pennsylvania,
in State Convention assembled, do now cordi
ally ratify the nomination of Gen. Winfield
Scott for the Presidency of tin? United States,
this day made by the National Whig Con
vention in Baltimore, and adopt him as our
candidate, and heartily subscribe to the de
claration of the principles by that body.
Resolved, That the nomination of General
W iulicld Scott is particularly gratifying to
I cnnsylvania, inasmuch as he lias been for
years the first choice of a large portion of
her citizens for that distinguished station
that his tame is as dear to us, forming part
of the brightest pages of the history of our
common country—and that he lies enshrined
in the hearts of Pennsylvania's gallant sons,
whom he has so often led to victory and
glory.
Resolved, That we call upon every Whig
of the North and South, of the East and the
West, for the obtiiinment of a glorious victory,
by the election of one fVhose triumphant
sword successfully defended our northern
frontier whose unparalleled success in arms
aided in extending our borders on the blue
Pacific, and whose civil services have been
successful iu the Nonth and South, the East
and West—whose capacious mind is capable
of comprehending the interests of all—whose
patriotic heart heats with love lor our country,
our whole country, and nothing but our
country.
Resolved , That in our hour of exultation
we are not unmindful of the eminent services,
the pure patriotism and devoted love of coun
try, displayed by Millard Fillmore in the of
fice to which an all-wise Providence has cal
led him. True to his trusts, faithful to all
constitutional obligations, untiring in the
discharge of bis official duties, he will bear
with him, in his retirement from public life,
the respect of his political opponents, and
the confidence of a grateful people, who will
never fail to recollect hisadministrationof the
first office of our country with heartfelt grati-
Resolved, That we tender our thanks to the
delegation in the National Convention from
Pennsylvania, for their faithful and earnest
efforts iu behalf of the candidate of Pennsyl
vania, and that we pledge our electoral vote
to the nominee of the National Convention.
Resolved, That the gigantic intellect and
great public services of Daniel Webster,
command our gratitude, as well as that of
the whole civilized world. Our mighty coun
try does not bound his fame. Wide as the
gift of speech, ami the power of the Press
are extended, his glorious oratory, and his
resistless pen, has raised for him in the minds
of men, a monument more glorious—more
enduring than the pyramids of the East.—
Long may his services be continued to his
country.
Resolved, That the sympathies of the
great Whig party of Pennsylvania are with
the illustrious patriot of Kentucky, now as
ever, first and foremost in the hearts and af
fections of the Whigs of the Keystone State,
and may his latter end be as peaceable as the
beginning was glorious. ALL HAIL TO OI R

Is then war all his glory and massacre fiyi,
! And delighting in blood would he peace ever

Boss.
So sir, no, the reverse : tho' a warrior great,
j To be sparing of blood is his tenet innate.
In the year '37, like the chattering of geese,

tained peace.

In so peaeeluily settling the Maine bound'rv

his pride:

Tell me, has he coutinu'd in peace since till
now,
And instead of tho sword been adjusting the

Boss.
No sir, no; he was called on to mount his

PRIVATE SALE.
j r PHE undersigned will offer for sale his well
X known and desirable business stand, situated
j on \ r a!ley street. Lewistown, known as the
" LEVVISTOYVN POTTERY."
The advantages this stand has in location, the
tacilitics it affords for a convenient and ready
market for its wares, together with its verv ex
tensive patronage, renders it one of the most
desirable in the country.
The WARES manufactured at this cstablish
\ rnent are far superior to any other in the six
counties, and have a reputation that will ever se
j cure the patronage of the public, from the fact
of the material being inexhaustible, and con
i netted with the concern by a lease of a number
! of years.
| The business of Potting has been carried on
j successfully at this stand by myself and father
for over 30 years, which is of itself sufficient ad
j vertisement to prove its advantages as a busi
| ness stand. The PERSONAL PROPERTY in
i connection with the concern, will also be sold,

Valuable Dwelling & Store Stand
for sale two lots of ground <
situate on the corner of
Diamond, in Reeds-
villc, Mifllin county, with
a large DUELLING and STORE STAND,
Stabling for 8 horses, Kitchen, YVood House,
Smoke House, and other out buildings thereon
[ erected. There is also a well of water on.the
premises, Apple, Peach and Plum Trees in full
| bearing—in fact everything calculated to render
I it a pleasant home.
The store stand is undoubtedly one of the
; best in the country, being situate on the great
avenue (the Centre arid Kishacoquillas Turn
pike,) on which hundreds of thousands of bush
els of grain are annually taken to market; the
new turnpike from Milheim, in Centre county,
intersects the Centre and Kishacoquillas road
between the store and tavern, and this, now
nearly finished, will largely increase the busi
ness—so that few places offer more inducements
to an enterprising business man than this.
The location in other respects is highly favor
able—being six miles front Lewistown, but a
short distance from Brown's well known Mills,
convenient to Schools and Churches, and an un
surpassed valley beyond, whose thrifty popula
tion daily pass the door. It was last occupied
by YVm. J. Glass, deceased.
A further description is not deemed ne
cessary, as persons desirous of purchasing will
of course call and examine for themselves.
For further information apply to YVm. Brothers,
Esq., or Win. Mclvinney, Esq., Reedsville, or
to the subscriber in Armagh township.
HZT' TO a suitable purchaser, terms will be
made easy.

Tuscaroi'u Academy.
THIS flourishing institution is located In Tuscarora
J- Valley, Juniata county, Pa., eight mites S. W. of Mif
flinlown, and six mites from the Perryville station, on
the Pennsylvania Railroad. It has been in successful
operation for more than fourteen years, and is believed
to be equal to any Academy in the State, in affording
facilities to young wen for acquiring a thorough Aca
demical education, either for business or for college.
There were present, during the lust session, (previous
to the fire,) more than one hundred students. Since
then, the buildings have been entirely remodeled and
greatly enlarged, so as to afford private rooms to all the
students; an advantage not ordinarily found even in
the best Institutions in the country. Being in the coun
try, the students are removed from those temptations to
idleness, dissipation, and vice, which are the bane of
similar institutions in towns.

mend the Institution 10 the coutinued liberal patronage of
the public.
