cheering unaniniity and harmony, Col CHARLES

with so much credit to himself and to the State.
Our present excellent Lieutenant Governor, DR..
RASSEY. and Treasurer, JoHS SrAULD1NG, were
also rcnominated. The Convention was a very
large and animated one Delegates were present
from every County ia the Stats. with the exception
of the small and remote ones Of Essex Orleans
and Grand Isle. Committee OF twenty-sX
corresponding in number with the Senators to
which each County represented IN the Convention
is entitled, was raised by the separate action Of
each County and the first balloting for Governor
exhibited the following result:

This result j. particularly gratifying on many
accounts. Col. Paine is gentleman Of excellent
talents and sound judgement and thai. thorough.
determined, and perseycring WIG and there
fore, most appropriate Governor for the unwag-
cring State Of Vermont. He will be elected this
time by the people themselves: who will thus
manifest their APPRECIATION Of the choice made for
them BY their Legislature last fall Ot this ] spcah

cause Of Wing principles, and to procure the UNI

spirit animated our Convention Yesterday and the
hearty ave- with which the recommendation Of
the nominating committee was adopted, left 10
fears for the result of the iactous efforts which
have been made to distract and divide the great
Wing Party in Vermont. | alludc mere paIucu-
larry to the attempts which have been made by The
leaders Of the d" Third Party" movement to Dis
semiuate throughout the State the conviction that
the only policy of the Wings was to nominate
Judge Williams. who Is tha candidate of that par
u. But the hoofs and claws of Loco-t ocoism
were too plainly visible beneath the flowing robes
of "CTpc3ieRcH' for the true Wings 10 be de-
ceiyed. They came to the Convention animated
with the noble conviction, that nothing could

wind of Expcdiency. In this spirit they acted
and in this spirit they will assurcdly triumph.
Fears had been entertained, by many III other
parts of the State, that the important Wing county
Of Rutland would very strongly urge the nomina-
ton OF Judge w, inasmuch a. he is a citizen OF
that county. Onc Of your CORES pondcn.s, Mr..

that Rutland county places too high an estimate
upon the principles of tue Wing party, to bestow
her confidence upoa one whose political opinion.

who IS the regular Loco-F ocO candidate for the
same Office, and between whom and Judge W
(if Judge ". is Il IVhig) there cannot be the
slightest coincidence of political principle or feel
