ubject to the decision of the National Conven.
tiOn TO be held by the w higs of the r. s,.,s
ASSOCIATE JUDGE WAYNE CouNry-Tba
Sheriff of this County. has in pursuance of an
order from the Governor OF the State ordered an
election TO be held in the respective places for
twenty-second instant, (Oc,ober,) to supply the
place of BEAL BUTLER resigned
The following remarks from a late number of
the Rushville Herald are very appropriate. and
we hope may be of service to the Wings of
this State. Ths only hope of the Vanocra,s is in
division of the Wing votes, and thus elect
their choice. Now, we are a little like our
friend of the Jefer sonian, do not wish the
Van Buren, party to have any thing to do in this
election. The Wings have the power in their
own hands and they should exercise IT, Noah
NOBLE is decided choice but we are peri ectlv
willing to his claims placed beside those Of his
fellow Wings, and whoever has the majority of
the whig votes lie, him be the man. Towards all
others spoken of as, the Wing candi-
dates we believe no political OBJ ect tons; but from
the long intimacy of Gov. Noble with the citizens
of this county, and the votes he has received
when before them for their suffrage, we believe
he is tho decided choice of sold Wayne wet thew
are perfectly willing, as FAR as we have heard an
expression, to submit their preferences TO the
wishes of a majority of their political friends in
the State.
Tho Election of United states senator..-
the duty of the wings.
Senator Tipton's term Of service expires on the
Il Ia, oh, IL 4.
successor devolves on the next Leeislature-
Noah Noble, Milton Stapp. Thomas H. Blake
Thomas J. Evans, Charles Dewey and John Di
mont, Wings, and Ratiitf Boon and Tighlmau A.
Howard, Vantes, have been spoken of as prob
able candidates for this station.
i We have been induced to believe howey cr in
! consequence of the very decided Wing ma loritv
IN the Legislature, the Van.tes will not make a
serious effort to elect one of their party
! but that they will unite upon that Wing whose
principles can be made to approximate nearest TO
their own, in the hope, with the aid of 4 few Wing
votes, of defeating the choice of ma Iorty of tn.
Wing party. Such, we repeat. will be the game
attempted by the Vanitcs. Some of their papers
have openly avowed it. The Indiana Democra
of the 18th September, declares that although
the Wings have majority in the Legislature
they cannot elect the choice of their party
In the mean time, portion of the Wing press
is playing into the hands of opponents. Is
peclally Is this the with regard to those
Editors who are dvocatlng the pretensions of Col
Blake. They represent him as having sirresisti
bic claims over every comprehensive is en-
phaticaiy the man. &c. In addition 10 this, sec
tional feelings and local pre- ldlces appealed
, to IN his behalf This course, to say the least
is highly mprudent, while there are other gen
tlemen IN the field whose past services have Civ
en- them strong claims the affection and con
hdence ofthe Wing party, and the inevitable ten
dency of 1t must be to produce divisions and dis
~ III H.
every thing like compromise or Cancellation ma
5 be found Impracicable. In such an event, tn
prediction of the Democrat would be verified
The choice OF the Wing party would be defeated
We urge no objection to Col. Blake We OF
ject solely TO the course Of sone of his other
Gus friends.
The Wings have the numerical strength in tn
Legislature 10 secure the election of that ind
vdual " hom they will but if they give unlm
ed sway to personal preferences and sections
feelings, they throw this strength at the feet {
their opponents-they place in their hands tn
balance of power, and the result will be, to a
. intents and purposes, defeat of the Wing party
: Some may differ with US in this conclusion an
: be ready to inquire sWhat difference does il max
so that Wing is elected, whether he DO electe
by the votes of the Vanites by those Of h
own party exclusvelv' We answer. that u
Wing vino will consent TO tamepr witt his p
ltIcal opponents, and bargain for their vote

; The means by which he succeeds would pla
. him under obligations that no honorable and pa
" riotic man could repay. He would go into
!. fee with his independence and selfrespect MOI
: gagged TO his political enemies.
:. To obviate the result deprecated, and tn
i Illustrate the scheme Of our opponents, is,
E seems tn US, an easy matter. Let the conducto
- OF the Wing press maintain q tone of modera ii
| and forbearance in relation to this matter. J.
:, them assume non-committcd ground to the m
. or, at any rate, express willingness to sacrifi
: personal preferences and abide the choice Of
= Whig party. The right feeling may be thus
- fused into the public mind and the Wing rep
- sentatives, rejecting the will of Their constr
: ents, will assemble at Indianapolis under the
= fluenco o. the feeling. Let them, bef6
. going into the election, have a meeting and CO
;" pare notes and interchange opinion. In this W.
i: may be ascertaned who is the choice of
Wing party and whoever that may be. let h
: receive their united and cordial support in the
: lection.
