party, the claims of no candidate for nomination
can be considered by this convention, unless such
candidates stand pledged to sui poi h in good faith

d pips:
Thia gave rise to an animated debate
which lasted for some time, when it was
finally laid on the table
And at 6 1.2 o'clock the Convention
proceeded to nominate candidates.
Mr. CAMPBELL, of 0., nominated Gen.'
WINFIELD SCOTT, of New Jersey.
Mr. EVERETT, Of VI., nominated DAN
IEL WEBSTER, of Mass.
Gov. KENT, of Me., nominated Gen.
ZACHARY TAYLOR, 011 behalf of the Union.
Mr. BLUNT, of N. Y., nominated HEN
RI- CLAY, OH behalf of the Whigs in the
Union.
-Mr. DEFREEi, of ‘ra , nominated JOHN
McCLEA,,,. of Ohio.
Mr.' W%LES, of Del., nominated JOHN
M. CLAYTON.
S4UNDERS, of La., read the follow
ing statement made by the Louisiana
delegation in reference to the politics of
Gen. Taylor :
The position occupied by Gen. Tay
tor, in relation to the Presidency, does
not seem to be correctly understood by
many persons, and for that reason, it is
deemed proper by the delegation of Lou
isiana, to make such explanations and
statements, in relation to that position,
as may effetually remove all doubt, and
the . effect of misrepresentation, on that .
poin t
Gen. Taylor has taken no 'part in
bringing.his.name.before the American
peoplt.,,,in.connection with the PreSiden
cy, nor does he present his name to
thts Convention, as a candidate. His
(rieddk throughout thecountry, rather
discouraged,. than encouraged by him,
have placed him prominently before the
Nation, as worthy of filling the place
once occupied by the father of his coun
try, and Gen. Taylor, from a sense of
duty, has assented to the nomination.
He considered himself in the hands of
his friends who have honored him with
their choice . He has publicly and re
peatedly stated that they might with
draw him whenever they thought the in
terests of the country, in their opinion,
required it. He does not consider that
under the circumstances in which his
name has been brought forward that it
Would be proper in him to withdraw him
self. Such has been ;its position shire
he assented to the use of his name, sub
sequOlit io the capture of Monterey such
is his pdsition now.
On belittlf of the delegation of Lottisi
and, 1~ Will fufthttr Hate that Gen. Tay
lor desitts it iii be understood that, in
his opinion, his ft iends who came into
this. Convention are bound to abide by
its.de.ission, and to sustain the nominee
"heart and sbul"—that Gen. Taylor rec
ognises in his friends in this Conven
tion, those who have the right to with
draw his name ,
and will c'.eerfully -
cpliesce in such withdrawel.
Gen. Taylor, we are tiso authorised ,
to say, will hail with entire satisfaction
the nomination by the Convention of any
other than himself, being persuaded that
the welfare of our country requires a
change of men and measures, in order
to avert the downward tendency of our
National affairs.
In making this announcement, the
delegation of Louisiana wish it to be
distinctly understood that it involves no
inconsistency on the part of General
Taylor. . . .
In case the choice of this Convention
shall fall on another than Gen Taylor,
and his friends in this Convention with
draw him, it will•be their act and not
his ; but in which he will cheerfully ac
quiesce; and by the act of uniting with
this Convention, his friends withdrew
his name from the canvass, unless he be
the nominee of the Convention. •
And we deem it proper to assure the
Whigs of the Union that we desire the
nomination of Gen. Taylor and his ele
vation to the Presidency on no other
than broad National grounds.
Mr. TRUMAN Satire, of C'., submitted

Resolved, That the war with Mexico,

the American troops, and invading our

The Convention, it will be seen, casts
the responsibility of the war upon Mexi.

" insults and injuries" to this country.
But Gen. Cass says:
None of us have denied, the President

that the annexation of Texas was the cause
of the war with Mexico. _
