truly, GEO. T. M. DAVIS. WASHINGTOH, April 30ft, At an early period of my correspondence took occasion to allude to an informal lathering of the Whigs in this city, at the louse of one of its most distinguished citizens, whereat, as between Gen.

Scott and Judpe McLean, a preference wns expressed or ihe former over the latter as the next Whig can i lid ate for the Presidency. I then 'five what was Ihe true version of this That it was by no means to bo 'cgartled as binding upon those even who were present, much less upon (lie ft! urge throuqhout the Union; and (hat it wan a mere informal expression, in tho contiri- EjL'ticy of Iho above two distinguished gentlemen beintf the only ones, that the Whigs might bo called upon to select from. I farther urged at that time, that the In our section of the country shouli correct or not. The responsibility of giving (his notice Great Britain, Is thrown entirely upon tt President; nnd many, already Insist he 11 refuse to give it even should it pass the House. 1 differ entirely from all such conclusions.
