Mr. Allen of Massachusetts would not assent; He believed that the whig party was this day dissolved. .

Mr/Lunt «f Massachusetts, the only delegate, from that Slate who voted for the nominee, snid he should give him a cordial support, such ns he would hnvc extended to nny other nominee. He believed that Mr. Wilson did not express tho sentiments of Massachusetts, which had always supported the whig banner. ; Mr. Galloway, of Ohio, said he had come pledged. Mr. Bingham of Ohio offered a reso lution providing the assent of tho entire convention to the nomination, if Gen.

The former party—mostly the officials of the Post Office and the Custom-house— chartered a boat to receive him at Wil mington, and fixed the price of passage at S3.

The opinion now seetns almost ididates for the • universal, even among those who had expressed the manifest P re,crenccs for other distinguished men of our par ty, that under the circumstances the Convention acted wisely in the selection of the gallant and pa triotic old Hero. It is true, that here and there a Whig can be found who feels disappointed at the defeat of his favorite, and who will at first treat Gen. Taylor’s nomination with some degree of coolness—but this, wo have no donbt, will sot n wear off. We have too much confidence in the pa triotism of our Whig friends who differ with us in sentiment in regard to the policy of the Convention, to suppose for a moment that a single one of them will contribute to tho election of Mr. Cass by with holding his support from tbe gallant old soldier who “ never surrenders.” That disappointment should be felt by the friends of those defeated is natural— but the idea that they will in consequence leave tho Whig party, or withhold their support from its nom inee, is perfectly ridiculous, and Locofocoism need *IbsT'conMituti*n°*and^the no * ex P cct “ a 'd and comfort” from this source, shown therein ought to be strictly con-!
