'"e' sc Imm A large and res crrr o, pectablemeetineof the Mends of Melee General Wll/field Scott, was held, yes terday, in the room of the Supreme Court, which was orpnlzedby calling General William Marks, of Robinson township; to the chair. loneph Wall, of Elizabeth, Francis Emu, of.

He observed there, prominent men 40111 every section of the county. This'meeiing had been called by the friend, of General Scott, by those who thought that he shprad receive the nerldnation for the Presidency at the approach ing political 'contest. Some of the General's Mends might think tilt the meeting was proms . tore, but be was net of that opinion, for it would be observed that `whenevet the people, in the • ir primary meetings, had designated the man of their choice, eneh person became their candidate, tad not of the politicians and managers of par ties. This was the ease in the election of Gen. Jackson, who wfis urged into the Prer:dtMtiell ; chair by the people, against the trinchiMery mad . 'Management of mere politicians. So, too, with General Harrinon, and it vwes eminently the =se'' 'with regard to General Taylor.

It area in accordance kith that eall, that they 'rue then assembled, and it Was a matter • prdpiety thatthey should to assemble. This emdrusium :vas strikingly manifested on the occasion of General Scott's recent visit to Pittsburgh—then men of all parties hastened to pay the respects dee to hie eminent civil and military abilities. The people had undoubtedly pitched upon him as their standard bearer in the ' nett Presidential campaign, and in this State, printery meetings -bad been held in almost every county, trith' that view. In- these meetings, it bad been recommended that two Conventions, an Eastern and a Western, !tumid be held some time during the ensuing summer, and the city of Pittsburgh had been designated as the place for holding the Western Convention. Common civil ity required that'the friends of Geueral Scott in this county, should respond to the call. He presumed that thin meeting was called with view of saying to the friends of that illustrious General, in the neighboring counties, that his Mends here would be pleased to see them bathe propose.' Western Convention. The call for this meeting had been signed by a large number of • our most respectable citizens, and he thought that to carry not the design far which they had osserohled. a Committee should be appointed to exprees the views, not only of the friends of General Scott, who were then present, bat of all 613 .fricads 12 Itilerhont county, whose name was Legion. • The hmtorrible gentleman then sat down in the Midst of loud applause.
