On Wednesday nightl dres ®’ de . liv ered by request of the Board, at lthe Semi-annual Examination held on the Gen, Winfield Scott and W. A. Graham. The Chronicle <jk Sentinel comes out flat- footed against the nomination. But the friends of Gen. Seott need be under no alarm about that. It is easily explained on tbe principle of sympathy. Having exer cised its wit so often upon the Charleston Mercury's eccentricities, it seems insensibly adopting tbe habit it ridiculed in that Journ al, of firing the first shot of tbe campaign against the side it intends ultimately to support, The Savannah Republican is also hostile against the old General. But that press is liable to speak too hastily—vide 1850-’l. Tbe Maeon Messenger makes a great to-do also—denouncing it as a Free-Soil nomina tion, and a triumph of the enemies of the South, It is common for politicians when very much disappointed, to let off tbeir surplus wrath in a sort of Jim-Crow-shnfBe, and af terwards, like Newman Noggs, go quietly to a common-sense resignation. Doubtless these gentlemen Editors will do so in good time. We premise of course, that these presses will have to choose between Gen. Seott and Gen. Pierce. The Chronicle & Sentinel expresses itself thus of the. former “In our opinion, be has no claims Upon the country to the distinguished office to which he aspires ; for we regard his milita ry services as constituting an objection rath er than a recommendation. We want a civilian, a statesman, one who is familiar with the duties and responsibilities of that important office. Gen. Scott cannot be so regarded by any impartial mind#” If Gen. Scott “has no claims upon the country to the distinguished office to which he aspires,” we should like to know if Gen. Pierce has any. Or whether the latter is more of a “civillian, or statesman” than Gen. Seott; or more familiar with the du ties and responsibilities of tbe Presidency ? Few men are probably, better acquainted with the details of our government than Gen. Scott—its general policy and course. His official character has required his resi dence much about Washington City—and it is scarcely to be presumed that a gentle man of his inquiring and ambitious mind, would let such golden opportunities pass, for acquiring knowledge, more or less, of every department of government, That General Scott is the equal—and in many respects the superior—of Gen. Pierce, will not be gainsaid by any impartial mind--Whig or Democrat, But the Chronicle & SentineVs main ob jection seems to be that GeD. Scott “is the candidate of the Free-Soil and ‘higher-law’ wing of the Whig party.” Why is he more sc than Gen. Pierce on the Democratic par ty ? Perhaps the editor will give us to un derstand, clearly, before he turns bis back finally upon us, several very essential things: First—What is the difierence between a nomination made by Free-Soil, “higher- law” Whigs, and a nomination made by Free-Soil and abolition Democrats ? And if we are to choose between the two nom inations*-which should soonest command our support?

SAM’L FIELD, R. W. FLOURNOY, C. SULLIVAN, W. P. HAYNES. Sandersville, July 5, 1852. We copy the foHowihg advertisement from the New York Herald : “Lo3ton Wednesday last, a brindle pup with a switch tail—-belonging to Patrick McNeil, with his ears slit; j our support i a nomination made by agtheii- receiving an honorable discharge from combination of Constitutional Union Whigs|t,he service ■ * r ° m of one section, and Free-Soil Union Whigs* 1„ regud to the general poliey of the !„il ZiSSt b CL!Z!!!Z!!1!l^^ 1 sll0 “ ld Of course of another one section^'and 1 Anri-Sn^ k a ™o®g those who niay approve that and Anti-Compromise Demo crats and Southern Disunionists of another? If Gen. Scott is only a Compromiae man for the sake of office—have our Southern Rights brethren become Compromise and Union men so suddenly from principle ?— Answer us from tbe depth of thy Delphic mysticism, lest we err, not knowing. But the Savannah Republican is even more violent than its Augusta contempora ry-denouncing Gen. Scott as the “Seward candidate,” and declares that to place the reins of government in his hands would be furnishing the latter gentleman with a club “with which to beat out our brains four, or eight years hence,” or “when he (Seward[ should be brought forward himself for the the Presidency.” It speaks of the Whig Platform as a “piece of patriotic workman- ship,” but concludes with the very sage opinion that, “to place Gen. Scott on this Platform dtptesent him to Southern Whigs, is a trick of his Free-Soil supporters too shallow to be successtul.” “Nous verrons,” as Ritchie used to say. We may remark in passing, as a source of comfort to the Whigs at the South in general, and to those who may be inclined to support Gen. Scott, in particular, that ac cording to the Republican's prognostics, they may rest secure in the possession of their “brains for four or eight years” to come, or until brain-beating Seward be comes a candidate for the Presidency—that is something. But will the editors of the Republican be kind enough to inform us whether there is any “trick” in the Southern Rights party suddenly becoming Compromise and Union men, under the lead of Pierce aud King ? and if so, whether it is also “too shallow to be successful?” And what is the important difference between the New York Tribune on the Whig side, repudiating the Whig Platform, and the New York Abolition Evening Post, on tbe Democratic side, pro nouncing the Democratic Platform a hum bug to catch Southern votes, ^^ough it policy for ttie agents io cany it into execu tion, and I should seek to cultivate harmo ny and fraternal sentiments throughout the Whig party, without attempting to reduce its members, by proscription, to exact con formity to my own views. But I should at the same time, be rigorous in regard to qualifications for office—retaining and ap pointing no one, either deficient in capacity or integrity, or in devotion to Liberty, to the Constitution, and the Union. Convinced that harmony and good-will between the different quarters of our broad country is essential to the present and fu ture interests of the Republic, and with a- - devotion to the interests that can. know no South aud no North, I should neither coun tenance nor tolerate any sedition, disorder faction, or resistance to Hie Law or the Un ion, on any pretext, m any part of the land; and I should carry into the civil adminis tration this one principle of military con duct—obedience to the Legislative and Ju dicial departments of Government, each iu- its constitutional sphere, saving only, in re- - spect to the Legislature, the possible resort to the veto power always to be most cau tiously exercised and under the strictest re straints and necessities.
