SALISBURY WING CONVENTION.

We would gladly copy into our columns
the almost innumerable accounts of Log
Cabin" Conventions, in various parts Of the
country, but We have not room; and even if
Our sheet was as "big as the biggest Boston
Notion" there would not be room. These
voluntary asscmblages OF the "bone and mus
Gle" OF the nation, and the enthusiasm with
which they greet the names of HARRISON
and TYLER. give promise Of the complete
triumph of sound principles over corruption
and misrule. We here give an extract from
the Brandon Wing, in relation to the delega-
lion from that village TO the Salisbury Wing
Convention.
"The large delegation from our village. was
attended by band of music, and, very much
To the damage OF the freak ncrres of our Loco
Foco friends whose ideas of proprietv and
exquisite moral sensbliiics were mani(es,lv
shocked, by veritable straw matched LOG
CABIN, bearing the significant moi,ocs 'THc
Peopie are coming" "Herc zee o. for Harri-
san and Tyler" "Log cabins and hard cidcr
Jefore Palaces and hard times,' When the
procession reached Salisbury, having been
augmented by the Goshen and Leicester dele
cations, and an csrort on horseback from the
former place, il presented a continuous line Of
vehicles and horsemen, estimated at more han
annie in length. Our Salisbury friends met
US, amid the discharge of cannon, and the
most animaiing cheering, in the spirit which
the great and Just cuuse is.so well calculated
to inspire. Their beautiful church. which
was crowded TO overlooking, presented the in
spring watch-words "HARRlSON AND TY-
LER, The Peoples Candidaies," broadly en-
blazoned. across the belfry, on the outside of
the tower"
We also give few Of the spirited rosou-
iions passed n, tina, meeting, which clearly in
dictate the spiri, which is tho move among
our "Groen Hills" Our extracts are from
the Peoples Press.

the administration of Martin Van Buren,, are
hostile 10 the true Interests Of the people, and

the ignorance and disregard it exhibits OF the
true welfare Of the great manufacturing and
commercial interests Of the country, and dis
