The wings held a Convention at Utica, on Wed
nesday.-Gen. Root was appointed the temporary
presiding officer but when the meeting was perfectly
organised, that veteran politician, p Livingston
placed in the chair The old still full OF
enthusiast and fire. On taking the chair, he made
one of those pungent and pertinent addresses Tor
which he is distinguished. :" have been in de-
mocratic harness." said he, " for more than
fourty years, and never slipped trace. Let
us put on our blue bonnets, and whether Martin
assumes the fox or the weasel, we will cate him
and if we cannot do it on two legs, or with four,
we will borrow his own blood hounds and put
them upon the scent" We may remark en- pas
SAINT, that the New Era, and other prints of the
same kindney, with great wit and appropriateness,
call Mr.. Livingston a British Wing, but we imagine
his long devotion to republican principles will out
weigh their denuncations. The delegation was
full from every county.
A resolution declaring the choice of the conven-
ton to be William ii. Seward, f,r Governor; and
Luther Bradish, for Lieut. Governor, was adopted
without a dissenting voice, and followed by
