We give $elow the following Just po
litical portraiture cf Mr. Fillmore from
the Frederick (Md.) Examiner. Also that
of Mr. Donclsou.
American Nominees.
In attempting a brief editorial sketch of
the high qualifications of those distinguish
ed gentlemen, who have been selected by
the assembled wisdom of the American
party, as fit and proper persons to be plac
ed at the head of a great and independant
sovereignty, we arc forcibly impressed
with the fact, that no tribute from our pen
could do common justice to their true mer
its and pure patriotism. That meed of el
oquent and meaning eulogy which has al
ready whelmed trp from the proud heart of
every American patriot, as by spontaneity,
and which despite of party prejudices and
bitterest sectionalism, has found a medium
of outward embodiment and expression
wherever truth had power 01 merit desert,
has rendered the fame of Millard 1 ilhmm\
like that of our illustrious ashington.
pure, untarnished; trauscendant and full.
Called by the wisdom of the Cod of na
tions to the first position in the administra
tion of this government, his pure and ele
vated morality, his an com promising integ
rity, his enlightened and comprehensive'
statesmanship and sound patriotism, made
him President not of a party, but of tbe
constitution and union. Having once as
sumed Iris position as the executive of a
great people, he determined at all personal
hazards to preserve free from infraction
the constitution and union, and wi th the
resolution of Old Hickory and with the pa
triotism of Washington to know no North,
no South, no East, no West, but the com
mon interests of tbe sovereign States, the
preservation of those wholesome rights
guaranteed to us in the charter of our liber
ties and the advancement of his nation.
Ami when the dark storm-clouds ofciv-
‘ il discord and hitter localism grew more
and more lowering and were fast settling
down upon the hopes of this confederacy,
and like the pall of night enshrouding the
nation in gloom—and when the great Clay
in the might of his power rose up for the
last time in the councils of the nation to
invoke the spirit of compromise and beat
back the coining storm, Fillmore from the
halls of the Capitol poured oil upon the
troubled waters and bade the fiends of
discord and disunion back to their dens of
disgrace and infamy. He rebuked the
dangerous spirits of narrow-minded section
alism by the elevated and liberal policy of
his administration ; taught the fevev-heat-
ed brain of the feckless fanatic that he re
cognised the constitution as the, best guide
for his executive action: and united the
alienated sympathies of the North and
South and extricating his people from a
labyrinth of dangerous aud impending diffi
culties within and without, led on the na
tion to prosperity and peace. With the
firm hand of the patriot, he threw the pro
tecting tegis of a common constitution as a
cloud of safety around the States and char
acterized his entire administration by that
high degree of enlightened diplomacy
which liasjustly entitled him to a position
in the estimation of his countrymen, second
only to that of the illustrious Washington.
Such is but a meagre and imperfect por
traiture of the character (if that patriot and
liberal minded statesman whom the Ameri-
rican party have seen proper to select as
their standard hearer in the. approaching
national canvas, and in doing so they have
given to the country at large a fair exhi
bition of their sagacity and wisdom. Mr.
Fillmore has been tried in the refining lire
of experience an d the severest test of the
crucible has proven him all of pure gold.—
He comes then before the American peo
ple for their suffrages not as a novas homo,
but as a tried executive, proudly endorsed
by those treasures of American memory,
Webster and Clay.
Of Andrew Jackson Eonelson, the Ame
rican nominee for the l ice Presidency of
the United States, we hut endorse the
unanimous sentiment of the press, when we
assert that Ljs nomination for that high
and responsible position is the safest
and strongest that could possibly have
been made. He was the private secretary
and confidential adviser of Gen. Jackson
during Iris administration, and his warm
and personal friend for more than thiity
years. He was the aid decamp of the hero
of the Hermitage at the battle of New Or
leans, and as his constant adviser an friend,
he enjoyed the utmost confidence of Old
Hickory upto’the closing day of his iifie.
If, then, Andrew Jackson Donclsou was
so pure a patriot, so skilled -a diplomatist
and so wise a counsellor that he was called
front the nation at large in the stormy ad
ministration of Jackson, by that old hero,
to he his counsellor and friend, and if in all
those deliberations with the sage of the Her
mitage he evinced such an amount of sa
gacity and sound judgment as to warrant
and receive the approval and confidence of
that venerated statesman, full surely the
most unprincipled skeptic will not fail to
accord to him that high degree of qualifi
cation which would pre-eminently suggest
him as the proper and competent person to
fill with the highest honor the responsible
position for which he has been nominated
by the Philadelphia convention of the
American party.
If, then, such is the true character of the
American nominees, and we challenge its
contradiction, from what party of’the Ame
rican people will they find even a moder
ate much less respectable opposition. We
confess our inability to conceive.
The New York Journal of Commerce
(Dem.) says that the nomination of Millard
Fillmore is the best they could have made;
and that of Andrew J. Donelson is not
bad. Their chances of success will de
pend very much upon the character of the
Democratic nominee yet to be designated.
.The New York Commercial Advertiser
(Whig) congratulates the Philadelphia-
American Convention on its choice ; and
considers that the old liue "Whigs will
cheerfully aid in the election of Mr. Fill
more. The Advertiser promises him its
best support, and thinks that the Whigs
should call a Convention and issue an ad
dress setting forth the reasons for endors
ing the nomination.
Tho Philadelphia Inquirer endorses the
nomination of Fillmore and Donelson, and
regards it as a happy selection.
A writer in the Boston Courier, an ‘‘Old
Line W hig,” recommends to the Whigs to
vote for Mr. Fillmore, and to join the
American party in every tiling that is for
the good of the country.
The veteran National Intelligencer, an
able and consistent old hue Whig journal,
which has never evinced any partiality for
the new party declares that it will support
Fillmore and Donelson with zeal and pleas
ure, if the Whig party endorses their nom
ination.
Opinions of the Northern Press.
W e perceive that almost the entire con
servative press of the North, that has not
been dipped in the slough of Democracy,
have spoken iu terms of the highest com
mendation of Mr. Fillmore as a candidate
for the Presidency. We annex a few ex
tracts wjiich we find prepared to our hand
by the N. O. Bulletin.
The Boston Bee, the organ of the Ameri
can party in Massachusetts has placed
the n^mesof the nominees of the Philadel
phia Convention at the head of its editorial
columns, and has entered zealously into
the campaign in their behalf. The Bee
states, the Massachusetts delegation, with
a single exception, did not holt ; hut that
eleven of them remained and took part in
the final proceedings of the Convention.
The Boston Journal and the Traveler.
(Whig) express warm approval of the
choice of Mr. Fillmore, regarding him as
a pilot around whom the conservative men
of the country can rally in confidence, and
express the opinion that his election to the
Presidential chair would be alright era in
the history of our country.
The New York Express has “the great
est pleasure” in announcing the nomination
of Mr. Fillmore, he being “the very man,
in these trying and critical times, to pre
side over all parts of the republic, with
justice and equity for all and with a firm
hand to reform and redress any wrong that
may be attempted in cne section of the
country against another.”
The Express further says that the Amer
ican party need no further platform than
his Admistration of the Government for
three years.
The American Nominations.
. [From tho Louisville Journal]
We feel a turill ol joy in announcing^ to
day the nomination, by the American Con
vention, at Philadelphia, ot Millard I ill-
more for the next Presidency and of An
drew Jackson Donelson for the \ ice Pres-
dency. This nomination will be enthusi
astically greeted throughout the whole
South, and we trust throughout the whole
North as the very best that could,have
been made. 'I lie highest hopes of those
who hoped most from the Philadelphia
Convention are fully realized.
Other and most worthy names have
been much thought of aud spoken of in cou
nectiou with the nomination for the Presi
dency. The lion. John J. Crittenden and
and "the Hon. Garret Davis have myriads
of friends and admirers, aud the nomina
tion of either of them would have been
greet edwith loud applause, but there can
be no question that the name of Fillmore
will excite a more universal acclamation
than any other name in tbe Union could
have awakened. Mr. Fillmore has been
tried in the greatest exigencies of his
country, and was never found wanting.
The most powerful array of adverse influ
ences could not turn him a hair’s breadth
from the straight line of duty. Even
when the voice of old political friends, aud
the fierce clamors of" his own section were
raised against him, he faltered not for one
moment, but pressed on in obedience to
tiie call of his country. And Lis triumph
was noble and complete. Although Lis
political opponents reviled him during
the greater portion of his administration,
yet, when the}’ found lie was not a candi
date for re-election, they- united with the
rest of the country in rendering him
honor for his wisdom and matchless patriot
ism.
Of Maj Donelson, thefrieud of Jackson,
and the friend of the Union, we have not
time to speak fitly now. To the remark
that Fillmore and Donelson will most as
suredly be the next President and Vice
President of the United States, we will
simply at present add the shout destined
soon to become familiar to anation’s ears—
Hurrah fur Fillmore and ])onelson\
Mr. Clay’s Opinion of Mr. Fillmorf.
The following letter from that Great
American statesnmn and patriot, Henry
Clay, to the Hon.Daniel Ullman, of New
York, will not fail to impress itself upon
the minds of the true men of the country,
and especially^upon the old line conserva
tive Whigs, who never hesitated to buckle
on their arihour when his clarion voice
summoned them to action. It is like the
voice of one speaking from the tomb :
Washington, March. 1852.
My Dear Sir:—You rightly understand me in
expressing a preference for Mr. Fillmore as the
Whig candidate for liie Presidency. This I didjoe-
forel left h<aue, and have frequently here in pri -
rate intercourse, since my arrival at Washing! ou-
f care not how generally the fact may be known,
but I should not deem ijt right to publish any for
mal avowal of that preference under uiy own sig
nature-in the newspapers. Such a course would
subject me to the imputation of supposing that my
opinions possessed more weight with the public
titan I apprehend they do. The foundation of my
prelerence is, that Mr. Fillmore has administered
the Executive Government with signal success and
ability, lie has been fried, and found true, faith
ful, honest and conscientious. I wish to say nothing
in derogation from his eminent competitors; they
have both rendered great service to their country,
the one in the iieid, tbe other in the Cabinet.—
They might possibly administer the Government
as well as Mr. Fillmore has done. But then nei
ther of them has been tried in the elevated po
sition lie now holds, and I think that prudence
and wisdom itad better restain us from making
any change without necessity for it, the existence
of which I do not perceive.
Henry Ci-ay.
Tltis letter was written in Marcli, 1852,
before the Whig Convention nominated
Gen. Scott—and it speaks the voice and
sentiments of the whole country when Sir.
Fillmore retired from office—friends and
enemies all cheerfully admitted that he
had been “ true, honest, faithful, and con
scientious,” in the discharge of the duties
of his high station, and that he had “ad
ministered the government with signal suc
cess and ability.
He has been tried and found faitful, and
the American people owe it to themselves
and the great interests of the country to try
him again.—Citron. § Sen.
Letter from Mr. Donei.son.—The fol
lowing note from the American nominee
for the Vice Presidency was addressed
to one of the editors of the New York Ex
press :
March 1st 16o6.
Sin—I am referred to in many places as the
adopted son of Genera! Jackson. Permit me to ask
that you will give this note an insertion in your
columns in order that the mistake may be correc
ted. The adopted son ot General .Jackson bears
Iris own name, aud is now living at the Hermitage.
The General was uiy uncle, and my guardian, aud
friend from my infancy to his death.
The mistake has doubtless originated from the
fact that tiie General was in the habit of addressing
me as his son, and that I was so long and so
intimately associated with him. I was his aid-de
camp fr«in tbe time I entered the army until lie
left it, and his private secretary throughout his
Presidency—a confidential relation which vas
never interrupted as long as he lived.
I am very respectfully, your obedient servant.
. A. J. DONELSON,
M:t. Fillmore’s Nomination in Virgin
ia.—The Richmond Dispatch, a neutral
paper, says:—
The nomination of Mr. Fillmore for the
Presidency of the United States, lias been
received by his political friends in Virgin
ia as far as we can ascertain, with (great
enthusiasm. Jt is beyond our province to
intermeddle in political matters, hut as
chroniclers of the events of the day, we
may be permitted to say that we never
knew a nomination to give more satisfac
tion to a party. All pafties agree that it
was the very best nomination the Ameri
can party could have made. Mr. Fillmore
is a statesman of eminent ability and ex
perience. of highly conservative character,
and whoever may be brought out by the
Democracy will find in him a foeinan wor
thy of their steel.
The Plenipotentiaries in Paris.
The question of peace or war in Europe
is to be decided by the following diploma
tists, to each of whom we accord a brief bi
ographical notice:

years of age. He is one of the most prom
inent of the Whig party in England, and
Inis held various offices of trust. In 1846

liberal newspaper. In # October, 1850, be
was called upon to take office under the
constitution and at the present time he is
the Prime Minister of Sardinia. To him,
more than any man, is owing the reforms
that are working in the church, the consti
tutional rights that the people enjoy, and
the alliance of Sardinia with the Western
powers. No man could more worthily rep
resent his country in the Conferences than
■Count favour.

ment—is generally’regarded by European
statesmen and diplomatists as entirely
Pickwickian in its declarations, ‘ So much
for the non fulfilment of the inaugural. I
trusf, however, they may find tlieinselv es

The Defaulting Treasurer of New Orleans.
• One of the most affecting or affected
scenes, we have witnessed for a long time
took place y’esterday in Recorder Bright’s
office. At about half-past one o’clock,
there was a noise on the stairs, and in a
few minutes, the Chief of Police entered,
having under his escort. Wm. II. Garland,
ex-Treasurer, and Mr. McFarland.
^The Recorder immediately took his seat
and looked solemly grave. He proceeded,
with characteristic business-like habits, to
read the affidavits filed by the Mayor on in
formation received against the defaulting
Treasurer, the latter looking, tin*, while,
grave, thoughtful, pensive and careworn.—
With aljjris faults, and they are many, we
could not help pitying him. The cheerful
smile which many of tho business men of
the city were wont to admire, was convert
ed into a significant expression of counte
nance which indicated that thought was at
work, and that conscience was not alto- j
getlier inactive. There he stood, the cm- j
bodyment of fallen greatness. The mow- }
eyed prince, who, but a few days ago ruled :
the destinies of a commercial city. There
he stood iu the dock where the assassin
and murderer had left his indeliable foot
prints—a criminal, without a friend besides
the pity of the indulgent spectators. Pale,
haggard, heart-broken he looked. With
closed eyes, as if he had dreaded the sun
light, he listened to tho charges preferred
against him, and when all was over and
the Recorder stated that the bail was fixed
at $500,000, he simply replied that his law
yers, Messrs. Hunt and Hunton, were .au
thorised by him to attend to his business.
The Recorder tlieu stated that he had
already appointed Saturday next as tbe
most convenient day to investigate tbe
charge against the Captain of the Jane
Elizabeth, and that he was anxious that
all parties should he examined at the same
time. Mr. Garland had no further sugges
tions to offer. Recorder Bright remarked
that he had received a telegraphic des
patch from the Attorney General of the
.State, expressing his desire to be made ac
quainted with the day when the prelimi
nary examination would be held. Before
replying to the Attorney General, lie would
await an interview with the counsel of the
prisoner. Meantime he expected that said
counsel would not defer the interview to
any unreasonable moment. r. Garland,
nodded and looked pale. Recorder Bright
then said : “Mr. Garland, I am perhaps
travelling out of my vocation as an officer.
Let me express my opinion as a man. 1
regret to see you in the position which you
now occupy.” Here the Recorder sudden
ly left the tripod, and turned his back upon
the audience. The head of the prisoner
drooped, and he was conducted to ltis pris
on chamber by tho Chief of Police. There
was a momentary stillness in the room
that was almost dcath-like—officers, spec
tators, reporters, and all present seemed
almost petrified, and onr reporter, who was
nearly frightened to death Lv the ghastly
ooks of the bystanders, retired. .Vs lie
cast an eager look«>ii tho crowd within from
the door, he thought he saw several officers,
among others the officer in chief, wiping off" a
heavy tear-drop from their inflamed ey e-
lids. What a subject for a painter !
A Case in Austria.
The following from the “correspondence
of the New-York Ilerald," purports to have
been written in Berlin, on the 19th of Feb
ruary :—
A very serious misunderstanding has
for a long time existed between the Amer
ican Minister at Vienna and the Austrian
government in reference to the arrest aud
imprisonment of an American citizen nam
ed Spear, who, after seven months close
confinement, during which lie was not per
mitted to communicate in any way with
even his minister or consul, was tried on the
31st of March, 1854, by’a secret and un
known tribunal, convicted of treason, and
sentenced to ten years labor in irons in the
trenches at Theresienstadt, in Bohemia.
Mr. Jackson, two weeks ago yesterday, de
manded a properly certified copy of the
testimony said to have been used in the
convictio of Spear, and informed Count
. Buol in his note that unless berecioved an
affirmative answer within four weeks, he
should, at the expiration of that time, with
draw from a court where he could ito lon
ger remain with honor to his country or
advantage to its citizens. As there is no
probability that the desired answer will
be forthcoming, or that any testimony re
ally existed against the man, Mr. Jack-
son may be expected to leave Vienna
shortly after you receive this. 1 will send
you a detailed account of the whole case
by the next mail. I devoted more than
a week in Vienna to a thorough investiga
tion of all the facts and correspondence
connected with it, aud lifive no hesitation
in saying that if it does not furnish' the
most abundant and unmistakable mate
rial for prompt and decided action
on the part of our government, the State
Department ought in common justice, to
have a few lines printed on the back of its
passports, notifying tbe bearers that on de
parting from the United States they ne
cessarily leave their nationality behind
them. The fact is the whole of the Ger
man Powers have become bloated with in
solent self-con sequence from the unmerit
ed consideration which their position of
treacherous neutrality has obtained for them
during this war.—Tho President’s mes-
Froin the.Baltimore American.
Nicaragua.
The movements of Walker’s government
in Nicaragua are becoming of increased
importance in view of tiie connection they
cannot fail to have with the questions that
have earnestly enlisted British and Ameri
can diplomacy. We have already publish
ed the decree of Col. Walker’s factotum,
Rivas, declaring the title of Nigaragua to
the whole of the Mosquito Coast “notorious
and incontrovertible,” and in pursuance of
that decree banishing Col. Kinney, who
claims a portion of tiie contested domain
under a grant coming from another source.
I bis decision of Walker’s government
strikes at a main point of the dispute be
tween England and theU. States. Nicara
gua has always claimed the Mosquito
Territory and in its diplomatic controversies
past years the United States has always
acknowledged that claim to be just. Of
course it follows that if Walker is disposed
and has the power to back bis decree by
any overt action, such as taking possession
of the coast aud extending the laws of Ni
caragua over it, he will meet with no oppo
sition from our government. But will
England quietly allow its illustrious friend
aud ally the King ofBlewnelds to be thus
rendered a monarch without a territory,and
not raise her voice or hand to prevent
a catastrophe so direful to the royal great
ness I That this result should be threat
ened through the instrumentality of what
may be termed her peculiar aversion, an
American filibuster, must of course give
it increased significance and add to her
reluctance to allow a question so long and
patiently mused in the lap of diplomacy
to be solved by the progress of events in a
way most contrary to her wishes.
But if great Britain should interfere ac
tively to prevent the absorption of the
Mosquito Coast by Nicaragua, will not
that interference complicate her relations
with this country, aud increase in magni
tude the danger of both nations “drifting
into a war,” unless the true meaning of
the CJayton-Bulwer treaty in the mean
time is definitely settled ? It is true our
Government lias refused to recognise
Walker’s government, on the ground that
no evidence has yet been afforded that it
was acceptable to the people of Nicaragua,
but the attempt of England to sustain her
claim to a protectorate over the Mosquito
Coast, even as against the claim of Nicara
gua, would necessarily call for interference
upon our part unless we conceded her
right to that protectorate ; a right we al
ways denied and which it was the object
of the treaty according to the American
understanding, to abolish. It-is not to be
supposed that England will hastily adopt
any action in relation to the position Ni
caragua has assumed, nor that our Govern
ment will be in a hurry to take up the
defence of Walkers schemes; but there is
still in this new complication of affairs a
very perceptible danger that cannot be too
earnestly avoid by the earliest possible set
tlement of the questions that divide the two
Governments.
The way to success is to keep on trying.
The desponding should remember that
time and patience convert the mulberry
leaf into satin, while a handful of acorns
only needs the fostering influence of a little
sunshine, and a little rain, with a.'little ox-
tugging, and a little geniffs, to become a
great ship.
Saying prayers every morning, then
yielding to bad habits every day, is like
a cow giving a good pail of milk, and then
putting her foot into it and turning it over.
