.Nert Gorcrnor. With II single exception the
entire wing press OF Vermont las adopted the
ticket regularly nominated nj Montpelier Sill
there docs not seem to prevail through the
state that cordially, unanilnity and zeal in sus-
timing Tie nominees desir,blo TO secure 10 it
that triumphant success, which The numerical SUI
periorty Of The wing party might give ii. And
for this we IRE sure 10 adequate reason can be
assigned. Til" convention which made the nom
mutton was regularly called, anl in NUMBER tai
ents and intelligence was highly respectable and
although, there was found soine Discrepancy Of
opinion, IN harmonious feeling at length prevail
ed, aud the ticket was adopted and agreed TO be
supported with great unaniinlty. No wing in the
state should now complain that the convention
did not as fairly express the wishes Of tie wing
party, as any ever assemble! upon Il similar oc
cason. If amy portion Of the wings stayed at
home in careless apathy, when they might have
been present, they should adopt the candidate
whom they have entrusted others to designate for
them, and no, cndangcr The unity Of he party by
after murmurs aud complains.
Have the wings in Vermont lost all sense of the
necessity of ;lut discipline which the Victories of
their less powerful opponents have taught them
to respect " i'll they, the moment the common
enemy ceases 10 press them to the wall fall 1T
once into disrnplions aud like silly DAVIS cruelty
pluck each other, while the vulture is ready TO
pouuce upon both with I'm indiscriniinate vcnge-
aiice? by anon, we overthrow &! nasty Which
corruption had rendered almost nvncihle, and
by union alone can We perpo'uG'c tie victory
Let us Then have union, immediate concentration
OF Our strength Upon the candidate designated by
the nsages OF The party; standing ms we do, in the
presence Of n foe who is now chuckling al the
prospect Of recruiting his broken ranks from our
disseusions an undivided aud unhrOken front is
of vastly more consequence To us than The eleva-
lion of any individual 10 Office. All mere prefer
ence for men must he yielded, rather han in the
least endanSer the great interests which tho peo
pie have so molly struggled to sustain. We trust
in Heaven that tho wings Of The Green Noun
tuins have nor become so lost 10 the dignity Of
their principles, and the obvious means of sils
tanning them, rs 10 separate upon the question,
whether Charles Paine, or Charles x. Williams
shall occupy ;lir comparatively insignificant office
of governor of the slate.-'rhere should be no
marty, but for tie country. We 90 then, for un-
ou, for practical union, and we pronounce il folly
madness and political crime of the first m0gnl-
tuAe, for any orion oi ,I!e Wig party 10 declare,
without The most urgent considerations, against n
nomination made by regular convention OF the
slale.--Midaebwy Peoples Press. a
TIE Regular Nomination. - independent of his
being the regular nominated candidate Of tie
| party, sec no sufficient reason why even the
most scrupulous vhig should not vote for Col
! Paine. His talents and requirements a scholar,
his lluhs OF industry and proinptitude in bust
ness are cOnfrsscd!y adequate to HE duties of the
Office TO which lie las been designated. He can :
not, il is tue, boast OF official rank and profess
sonal distinction. But what constitutes far
! letter commentator for popular favor, he has
/ through life been engaged IN husiness operations
among the agricultural and manufacturing classes
| of community, aud his maccai knowIedge OF the
interests, wants and wishes OF the great body of
the people IS exceeded by very few IN The state.
As II politician, unlike too many tide waiting, of
lcc-seekiug men, he has never trimmed or varied
from a straight forward course. For years he has
been among the foremost 10 sustain those fnnda-
mental wing principles and measures, which will
ever form the basis of our ialionnl prosperity,
and in unval led opposition TO the arbitrary trder-
al course of the last administration, whose mer-
ceuaiy I,Rty policy has very near running all
the grGat interests of the country Bat While loeolo-
coism has done its worst to blast the hopes OF the
farmers aud lnhoring cIusses Col. Paine has dis
rihuted his thousands III purchasing the great
staple which forms The hnsis OF OUr agricultural
wealth, aud in the manufacture of il, in the worst
of times, he has afforded The means of subsistence
to muliiludes, who would Otherwise have been
! destitute al employment.
Although Col. Paine las before heen before the
people as II candidate for the Chief Mugisracy,
not soli,ory Stigma has been affixed 10 Ills char
acter. Party malice itself can say no more n
gainst him, than that he is the son of II rcvolu-
tionary fstler who fought under Washington, and
imblbed thosc noble principles OF government
which distinguished that sIoiless patriot. A
charge of 5or Of federalism which conlessedly
advanced The country 10 the highest pitch Of nu-
tiona greatness and prosperity, coming from "A
patty whose contempt for popular rights had
nearly reduced the government to an elective
monarchy, can have but little influence among the
intelligent people of Vermont who have long
since learned to detect the imposlure aud TO des-
pise the chea,er aud the cheat,
