The Wing Candidate for Gorernor. -
The Hon. Edward Turner was nominated
last winter by the wings as the +" draila-
Die" candidate for governor. The obvi-
Gus design Of nominating Chancellor Tur-
ner, was to secure the vote Of class, q
large majority Of which had espoused the
democratic cause. The nomination was
made upon the true whig principle, that
of"ayailability"-the convention seeming
to think it an easy matter to make their
party swallow any person who would pick
up the scattering votes.
Now, it seems that Chancellor Turner
was never even consulted as regards the
nomination-that the convention knew
nothing Of their nominees principles, and
in fact betrayed the wing party into the
ridiculous position Of supporting mar
opposed to them in many of their most i'm
portant principles, and unpledgcd, as TO al
others.
The following extract Of letter TO {
gentleman Of this place, from Chancello
Turner, shows that convention ia an ex
ceeding silly plight. He says
~ have been called out for that oliic,
by the general wish Of all parties, and i
elected, shall 80 into Office unpledged II
