to laugh at the idea of the Wings running an cleo

next-but it will be laugh Of despair, aud not the
laugh OF dersion. At the last fair test OF party

Gen. Harrison in JMicligan.-We can assur,
our friends abroad, that the nomination of Gen
Harrison is received with the most cheering en-
,husiasm by the Wings of Michigan. They deem
him the man and, Notwithstanding the slight per
sona preferences which may have existed here
as elsewhere, there is not Wing in the State whc
will not give his most hearty support. The Eiec
toral uote Of Michigan is secure for the Hero ofth
Thames. The expression of doubt of this by
the Wings of any other State, will be deemed al
insult. We have many of the brave men among
us, who fought with Harrison well at Tippe
canoe at the Thames They again embrace
Harrison as their leader, and they will fight witt
equal success.-Detroit .4dp.
