WIG NOMINATION.
Thc Important Day is at
hand.

We once more, and for the last time
during the present canvass, call upon
the Wing frccmon Of Rhode Island to
come to the rescue, to do their duty as
they have nobly done it on former oc-
casions to do their whole duty like
men who still cherish, with intense So
licitudc the Invaluable and od-boughi
privileges which cluster thickly around
our highly favored land. Is there, OF
can there he found in this State, in New
England, or any where within the vast
limits of this Republic, a single Wing
whose memory can trace back the po-
itical history Of Van Buren and his;
Wasirious predecessor, during tn,
past ten years, who can feel careless
and Indifferent to the influence our ex-
ample, which we, as a Nation, must
and will have, for good or for i'll, upon
the future destiny Of the world, civilized
and uncivilizcd Can there be found
any where within the narrow limits of
the land Of Williams, of Ellery, off
Greene, and of Perry, u Wing whose
memory has lost its hold upon the unut-
tcrablc misery and wrctchedncss which
and Van Burcn have scattered, broad
cast, all over this widely extended
country! If such man can be found
let him be pointed to the recorded pub
lie acts of those high functionarics -
Let him be pointed to Jackson's public
communications to Congress, his un-
disniiied and wicked appeals to the
rabblc, in order to engage that newly
imported rabbIc against the Banks of
the individual States, against all busi-
ness men, against The Supreme Court
and the Senate To their unceasinp
efforts TO give to the new States the
whole of that vast and almost incxhaus-
tiblc source Of wealth, which was pur-
chased by the blood and treasure of the
old thirteen States-thc Public Lands.
To all this may be added, the seizure
by Gen. Jackson Of the public money
the enormous and unparalleled waste
Of the public treasure, in prosecuting
what is termed the Seminole War.

JAMES ATKINSON, Secretary.

Leading objects that distinguish The
course Of The present administrution.-
lst-To secure the reelection Of Mar
tin Van Buren,, to effect which the i'm
mense public domain is to be surrendered
TO the people Of the new States, as the
price of their efforts in perpetuating the
Jackson and Van Buren dynasty.
od-To destroy the Tariff, ,and by the
introduction Of foreign fabrics, free Of
duty, ruin the great manufacturing and
consequently the agricultural interests
Of the New England States, which would
deprive hundreds of thousands of indus
trious operatives Of the means Of subsis.
lcnce.
3d-To destroy the present credit sys-
tenn Of our country by the Introduction
of Sub-Treasury, placing the whole
finances of the country at the disposal Of
the Executive, thus uniting the purse
and the sword, and virtually changing
our system Of government 10 an absolute
despotism.
Let every freeman who vcncraies that
liberty for which our fathers sacrificed
their lives and fortunes como to the polls
on Tuesday next, and show by his vote
for Messrs G. g. Il. that they still adhere
to the good old principles of '76.

The Republican Of yesterday, in ad-
dition to their other boasting articles,
claims u much greater gain of mem
bcrs in the South and West than they
arc entitled to--for political effect OF
course. The statement from the Ma
tional Intcllgenccr, which We copy to-
day, may possibly vary a trinc from the
actual results, but cannot much, in any
event, as they arc now pretty generally
known. The whole loss the wings have
sustained thus far, is more than over
balanced by the accession of Conncc-
iicut to our ranks,--a State which the
Locos heretofore made great calcula-
lions upon. The Wings arc not yet
tc"d, nciclbors, though some Of then
may be found acpppg.

sEpCAUTION.-Wc would caution
our Wing friends, particularly those in
the country towns, to examine well the
tickets which may be offered then OH
Tuesday next ,--as we arc assured that
attempts will be made to palm off
ticket upon them, containing the names
of one Wing and one Locofoco.

The Administration Candi-
dates,

Ii is matter Of astonlshmeDt that any
individual, who has boen uniform sup
porter Of Gen. Jackson's and Martin
Van Buren's administrations, can give
their support TO Messrs. Tburston and
Dorr.-For il is a well known fact, that
both these gentlemen were, but n short
time since, opposed to all the measures
Of both administrations. Mr.. DORIS
" demoeraey," TO be sure, is much
younger than MIR. Thurston's-as as bo was,
until about two years ago, most yea
Ious, active and go-a-head Whig. Few,
if any, in the General Assembly, went
further in denouncing the measures OF
the Administration than Mr.. Dorr, and
none uttered their denunciations in
stronger terms. But Mr.. Dorr rendered
himself unpopular in Providence by ad-
vocating and endeavoring to establish
free suffrage, and the Wings of that city
refused TO send him to the General As
sembly as their Representative, and he
theroupon and therefore, turned Demo-
crai,". and came out with all his power
in favor Of that administration, and those
measures which, day or two before, ho
had so unsparingy reprobatod. Now
this may all be very well, and perhaps
not Inconsistent with sound, modern de-
mOcrd,U.

TO THE wHICs OF Il. ISLAND.

CIRCULAR:
To TIE WHICs OF II. ISLAND.
The election Of members Of the next Con.
,rcss of the United States being near at
land, and such great questions depending OH
the issue Of this contest, we feel that ii Is our
luiy to address you on n subject interesting
10 all Of us.
The Wing Convention, as you already
know, has nominated ROBERT B. CRANsTON
and JosEpn L.. TiLIINGmAsr for reelection.
They have represented you in the last Con.
rrcss, and by their fidelity, attachment to
Wing Principles, and devotion to the best
interests Of Rhode Island, we deem them
worthy of our and your energetic support.
OF the many occasions which have pre-
scntcd themselves, when union and vigorous
action were called for by the highest cons id.
cratons, VIC believe none has exceeded the
present, in its influence, not alone upon our
personal, but upon our national affairs. 1t is
then an imperative duty which we owe our
selves and our country to stand by these
candidates, and spare no efforts TO secure
their recollection. The enormous abuses OF
the administration, the millions which it has
squandcred, the reckless spirit evinccd by it,
and the re esoluton formed to adhere through
all opposition TO the nefarious project of a
Sub Treasury, thus uniting the purse and the
s,cori, and scattering its political poison to
every part Of the Union; added to which, it's
avowed hostility to the AMERICAN system,
which is the very li;e-bood Of Rhode Island
enterprise, its plunder Of the PUBLIC LANDS,
and open attacks upon the primary principles
of the Constitution, all call for immediate and
thorough reform. In view Of such an exi-
gency in public affairs, we are false to our
selves, and to our country, if we do not
arouse and exclt all our energies to secure
the reelection of Mcssrs. CRANsToN and
TnlISGiIAsT.
We earnestly cxhort you, then, as true
friends of the good Whig cause, to be vigi.
liant and active. Let not n vote be lost
Our opponents were never more vigilunt, and
they must be met with a corresponding spirit:
as RHODE ISLAND was the first State to
break the bonds Of the adminstration-let
her be the last to return to the embrace OF
political corruption. Every thing depends
upon your mdiriiuai ereriions.
We are your jfients ani Etitop Citizens.
