worthy and intelligent democrats, whose claims were submitted to i the convention for that contested honor

 Is there anything more agreeable to the feeling and ambition of high minded honor able men, when in the discharge of any poIi- tical or public trust of confidence reposed in them by theirlellow-citizens than to know that they have discharged the duties imposed upon them by the nature of that trust, to the full and complete satisfaction of those contering it i? We say there is none. Hence will not the members of the late convention be cheered oil by these bursts of public feeling in favor of the nominee, to double diligence and per severance in their support of inc man ot their own choice-who brings to heir aid fine talents, and unahimity Of feeling in the de- mocratc ranks-arouud whom all are ready and willing to rally.

 Win any shrink from the position which lie may occupy in the democratic party, at the name of our talented and worthy demo- cratic citizen Col. R. W JOHNSON? To these, we respond they will not

 The editor of the Jotaaal is equally as pointed in his remarks upon the nomination of Col. J. as the editor of the lnteligenccr. Will not every true democrat in tue State readily acqulesce in the opinions of those de.  mocratic papers? We say they will. Yes, they will go further than q mere acquiesence in the nominee of the convention they will give to it their cordial and jealous support.

 There is no gentleman in the democratic ranks of our Staie--lhat would unite the par ty with more warmth of feeling, and create in their actions more harmonious and true democratic broherly kindness than Col. JOHNSON.

 We here qnote from the remarks of the editor of the Journal; as we are certain they will be read by every democrat in the State, not only with feelings of the warmest appro- bation-but will at the same time, excite in each member of il, spirit of worthy emul- aton and endeavor to surpass each other, fl possible, in his support of the nominee-and thereby make manifest his devotion to de- mocraie Princples--the very pillar upon which rests the constitution of our country.

 "'Phc democracy of R. w. JOHNSON can be doubted by no man, and that he Is capa- ble to hold lhal high office none will deny :; then let Us, one and all, strive to out to each other in eIeetng him, and thus still retain our position over our political foes, and hold our party where il always has been in this State. Let us rally around him, with heart and hand, and by our own united efforts place him in that high station which he is so worthy 10 fill. Let there be no lukeWarm- ness among Us; let not apathy, that curse more to be dreaded than whiggerv itself. creep in among us; but let Us remember our former victories and blush at the idea of defeat. Let us only mistrust our strength enough to make ns victorious in the coming contest We fear no independent candidate that class of pretending democrats have already received too whitening rebuke at the hands of the staunch democracy of this State 10 allow them ever again to hope for success; and even if they had not, the plea sure with which the present nomination is hailed by our party would prevent any one offering himself in opposition to the nominee of this convention. Let us all now rush for ward and rally around our candidate, that we may blast the hopes of whiggerv and present to the 30lh Congress of the United States, our fearless champion ROBERT ". JOHN SON.''

 The Souih anu middle part of the State are equally firm and united upon Cor. JOHNSON as the West and East.

 So lar as we have heard from the North, she is also firm, united and halmonious--the democracy are in solid column-waiting with confidence and composure, the approach ol that petiod-when they can come forth in their usual democratic strength to the polls, and test their devotion 10 those principles by a unanimous support of Col. ].

 We believe but few conventions have eve assembled in any State-that gave so complet and entire satisfaction to the mass of the de moeraiic party--as tho one recently assem- bled m our own.

 The democracy has nothing to fear iron division or independent candidates. We art united on Col. JOHNSON. We will elect hitn

 In conclusion--we tender to the lntelh gencer and Journal our cordial co-operatior in the approaching canvass-determined {, exert ourselves to the utmost of our ability 10 disseminate the doctrine of sound demo cratic principles in every nook and corne of the Sate

 We will do our doty-hoping to achieve a victory worthy Of the tines.
