To the Wings Of Virginia.

Aa Electoral Ticket, opposed to the
Government Candidate, will be fran
ed in Richmond this winter, Of the
time Of which, due public notice will
be given. la the formation Of county
Committees, much local information
will be necessary, and in addition to
this, it is in every respect desirable,
that the views and wishes of those OPP
posed TO Government influence 10 E.
lections, and Presidential Dictation,
throughout the Commonwealth, should
be known. 1t is therefore respectful
ly suggested, that 10 those counties
which are represented in the House of
Delegates by friends Of MIR. Van Blu.
rem, the opposition should without de-
lay, designate one or more individuals 10
represent their views 10 the body which
may assume the necessary task Of fra
ming an electoral Ticket. When the
day for performing that duty is deter
mined on, sufficient notice will be Civ
en- to enable the delegates TO reach the
seat Of Government in lime, from the
most distant counties of the State. 10
this patriotic work, the Wings are
respectfully urged to be prompt and
yigilani. The times require OF every
man TO do bis duty.

CONGRESSIONAL MORTALITY.

The annals Of the twenty fourth
Congress will be forever solemnly dis
,ingushed, over those of its predecess-
ors. The legislative history Of our
coun,ry has no parallel to the mourn
full pre-eminence which has marked
the present Session of Congress Be
ev.r its sitfings had well commenced
and before the business fos which il
had assembled had been begun,to have
three members thus singled out by
death, is indeed an omnous distinction
to OUT present national legislature. Yet
so it 10. The Houses Of Congress had
scarce adjourned, after paying the So
Tenn obsequies which custom has die
tated, to the memory Of a fellow men,
Der, called eway under peculiarly af-
fec;ing circumstances, before the frs,
meeting Of the body, than, they had to
re.assemble for the same melancholy
duty to another, and now a third, has
been added to the solemn list; in the
person of Senator Kane /; who expired
at his lodgings, Gadsby's row, on Sat
urday morning last. Sincerely regret.
ted and beloved by large circle Of
acquaintance. Mr.. Kane left home
in ill health, and contrary as we have
heard, to the advices Of all his friends.
But he believed that the public in
terest imperiously required his pres
ence, and at the sacrifice of his life, he
came on. The Indictment weather to
which he was exposed 10 the long and
tedious journey between his residence
and the seat OF Government, brought
on congeslive fever, under the sever.
ity Of which his constitution finally
sank as We have stated, nor has he left,
purer life nor a kinder heart behind
him.
The Hon. Zalmon Wildam, repre-.
sentative in Congress for Connecticut,
DIED al s O'Clock ON Friday evening,
in his lodging at Washington, Of a
malady to which he had long been
subject. His funeral took place from
the Capitol, on Saturday morning, and
was attended by a large number Of the
Members Of Congress and the execu-
i've officers OF the Government.
