letter published in the New York Commercial,
dated Washington, Dec. &, says


There was some conversation yesterday among
members about a suitable candidate for Vice Pre-
sident. Several gentlemen were mentioned, among
whom were Gov. Shulze, Gov. Morrow, Gen. iar-
rison, Chief Justice Savage, and Gov Pleasants.-
There seems to be desire ofpreserving the usage
which locates one Of the two highest offices IN the
gift of the people OF the North, and the other in
the South. lfthis principle should govern, think
Gov. Peasants will be nominated. He is. as you
know, a gentleman of fine attainments, much en-
deared 10 Virginia by various and faithful public
services. He is represented to be exceedingly
aniable in private life, and is known to be endowed
with exalted public virtues.


P. S--l passed the evening where the subject
of the Vice Presidency was discussed. Unless cir
cumstances now unseen, shall change the views OF
the friends of the administration, Gov. P. is the
man. Hei is, and has been, warm friend. The


canldate idr v President will be nominated by the


state conveAons as they meet to nominate electors
