has been much, very much, transpiring lichiq the
curtain in this Gubernatoria %slich,
if dragged to view, would not on sense tip oc

ized the representations of Mr. Cooper's 14ds,
but place in honorable relief their singularfoitar
(ince under wrong. , so gross. Would that as dud)
could he said of all interested in this matter.
For ourselves, we have believed, and :it thi o
ment are more than ever impressed with t ,n
-viction, that Mr. Cooper is ths first c h o i ce

however. as that confid , nee has been, hither
freely expressing our preferences we have uni
ly kept in view the possible contingency in tv
we might be summoned to do battle under
other chieftain, and shall continue so to sliapl
course—not hesitating to denounce wrong o
trigue where denunciation may be called for,
yet so indulging in invidious reflections or•o
candidates as hereafter to hamper our actio

Of course nothing is known of the orders under
which Gen. Scott repairs to Mexico, although they
are generally beloved to be of the amplest
Tampico, it is thought, will be the line of operations,
from which Gen. Scott will move towards San Lu
: is Potosi, and after elli2cting a junction with the for
ces under Gen. Taylor and - Wool, give battle to San
! ta i Anna. Vera Cruz would next be assailed, after
which, should the Mexicans still be disinclined to
treat, an expedition will he undertahen against the
Lcity of Mexico. One thing is certain, Scott will
bring Santa Anna to terms, or leave hiS bones up
on Mexican soil. The Washington correspondent
of the New York Journal of Commerce throws out
I I the following ideas :
General SCOTT said, a while ago, that
he never would he called upon for active
service in the Mexican War until the Gov-
urination. We have warned the friends of Gen
Irvin against some of the means that are bein!
nsed to bring about the nomination of their favor
ite-berause we were, and are, assured that they
arc likely to beget a feeling adverse to the success
of the Whig cause. But while we have done this,
we have always avowed our determination to sup
port the nominee of the convention with cordiality
and zeal. Such is still our determination.
The Lancaster Examiner quotes the above arti
cle with a seemingly hearty approval, while at the
same time it administers rebuke without stint to
others offending in the same way, though in nuch
inferior degree. In the course of the canvass, we
have seen no article on either side, exhibiting a
feeling at once so personal, so malignant and well
calculated to excite angry controversy, us the one
fwhich we have copied from the Butler Whig.—
This article cannot speak the feelings of the Whigs
of Butler county. - They may, and probably do
prefer Gen. Irvin to Mr. Cooper ; but they cannot
be his personal enemies..
.rie article, huivercr, dis
covers the feelings of a personal enemy in every line.

olutions ad. 1,t12(1
Resoked, That we recognize in James
Cooper, of Adams county, a man of splen
did talents, all accompliihed Statesman,
an able orator, a ‘v hig in whom there is
un rzuile. and an honest man : and that we
believe his nomination to the Unberm.torial
Chair would he hailed with acclamation hv
the people of Penusylvaia;Ths a sure be
hinger of success in the tu:xt conte:A for a
State Executive.
Resolved, That the name of James Coop
er is a tower ol strength to the Whig party ;
he has at all times and on all - occasions
ably sustained the interests of Pennsylva
nia ; his Side support of the leading Inca
sures of our party, among tvhich may he
enumerated the American Taritl: of
and the Land distribution, both in Con

as not only to merit our approbation. but
to entitle hint to the ‘varin support for Gov

Resoired, That while thtis expressing
onr decided preference for Air. Cooper for 1,
the Guhernatorial Chair, the Whits of
Delaware county are evcj ready to sup

the Whig party ; we will therefore yivld
