The spirit OF the Wings is not at all subdued by
recent reverses. From Counties, in whieE the de-
feat, apparently, overwhelming as unex-
pected, we have evidences of a determined spirit.
which augurs victory in future. But one sentiment
prevaIls:-We must renew the fight with increa sed
nrdour and with all the advantages which discipline
can confer. Thorough organization, extending to
every county and neghbourhOod-wit the univer-
sal diffusion OF political papers among the people.
Let there be a Wing association ut every Cour.
House IN the State, whose first duty shall be TO ge
cheap Wing papers circulated among the People
1t this or that man viii subscribe let them raise
a purse among themselves to DELAY the expense.
Garry out the same system in every neighbourhood.
IL there be but three Wings in a benighted region,
lei, them meet together and take steps to dispel the
darkness which surrounds them. Good will come
Of it. The people honest and patriotic, and
they only need correct Information to come to cor
rect conclusions. Without access to truth and
knowIedge, they must inevitably fall the victims
Of Dsmagogues. Every effort TO establish Free
Schools and supply The means Of education to the
people, has been defeated ty the Loco Focos, be-
cause in Ignorance they have their chief reliance
The Wings must-it is their duty, as patriots to
DO oil in their power to this great obstacle Ia
the peoples understanding the best means Of ad-
minisleung their Government.
There can be no complete organization without
a standard around which to rally. We have heard
but one opinion from the country. and that was tn,
want Of this standard to rouse the people, and con
centrate their eXertions. Run up the flag of HAIR
RY OF THE WEST. The whole Wing party
are ripe for it-and the whole body OF the peop
will be when fully instructed rs to the glorious in
cidents Of his lifc-his long and important service
TO his country-nnd the base calumnies and detrao
ton with which he has been compensated. TIL
conviction IS daily gaining ground, that he, nbov
all men OF the age, IS pre- emnently fitted for tn
crisis into which the country has been brought bl
twelve years Of misrule. Even those who do no
concur with him in all his opinions, have conhdenc
in his integrity, his patriotism, and his ability l.
serve his country efficiently. Run up his Gag, an
le, the good and true rally around il. II they iai
after doing oil that man can, they will have n
cause Tor sefreprouch. II they bear it oloft j
triumph, their country will reap the benefit

THE BANK OF THE STATE OF 6. CAROLINA.
A strong opposition has been manifested to what
are called tho bOnd debts of This institutions; but
there is papable misapPrehension On this point.
The objection lies not against the form but the du-
ration and amount Of those debts. They are pe,ma-
nent-"old slelf.kcepers"- dates show that;
but not moro penn lncnt, in reality, than many Of
the ''discounled notes." which have been renewed
for whole generation. If certain gentlemen, the
pets and neutrality-suspicious. on the Treasury
must have the money, fact-to tcmand their h2irs
ocvcr-is it not better 10 put it in the form Of bond g.
mortgage at per cent. than 10 loan it on the
less perfect security of note Of hand at six per cent
The objection r'pcat, ought not to be against the
farm of the sccurity-tc bond and morlgagc-for
this is preferable TO the notc but against the odous
monopOly Of the peoples moncy--thc peoples trea-
surc-in the hands of a tcp. say few, for il APP
pears from e6fciGl duta that l2O individuals have
5000, ,OOOp,ore than half the legal "eapita" of the
Bank.
Voters of Kershaw, arc you prepared to sanction
such abominable fivortism-such gross abuse? Will
you not demand the sentiments Of your candidates,
fully and unequivocally touching this mat'cr7 Will
you not demand nrho are those l20 favored gentle
men? Let them be unmasked, and again boldly
assert, the country wiH be startled.

A GHOST oUTwITTED.-A short time
ago ajoke too good not to be narrated,
was played upon jolly old worthy at one
of our inns, in the town Off. This
scion, one of the Bacchanalian school, be
it understood, laid siege 10 the bottle and
barrel for several days. Some of his red
nosed companions being aware of the cir
cumstance, and thinking that he was do
ing il rather too hard, agreed upon trying
an experiment to frighlen him into more
sober way. Nigh, being fixed upon for the
joke, away they went to the inn described,
andthere they found his worship ina back
parlor, quite intoxicated, and fast asleep.
While in this apperentIyshappys state, he
was take, and placed 9ofI leng IL inside Of
the coffin, which had been procured for
the Job. Having slept in this receptacle
inr the dead for three or four hours, he
awoke, and upon raising himself, up he
gazed about him, first on one sideSof the
coffin and then on the other, muttering 80
himself, as he viewed the melanc holy
piece of furniture, "Where am l! Where
have gotten to?" While inthe act ofsay-
ing so, a tall, porlly-looking figure,
shrouded in white sheet, walked from q
large cupboard,and on marching up to the
box, fain,ly whispered, You are dead.
Dead" said the disciple of Bacchus, fix
ing his eyes s,eadfastly upon the object be-
fnre him: YES" replied the spectre
Dead, sirs, an, hoo lang hae We been
dead, say!" "A fortnight said the ghost

gator quitting his hand in hisepocket) "ye

for the ghost, and, before he could well
ret out Of the room, he burst into all I'm

t. FROM Inc OIu CcnOOl hepuOllchus
1--WE see It stated that many prominent
men Of other States, arc expected TO address
the people Of Ohio at several points, within
tho next fe@ weeks. To this, we, as citi-
zen Of Ohio, enter our most solemn though
most humble protest. Ohio is sovereign
State. BY the acts ola portion of the Legis-
lature, one branch Of her government has been
virtually broken up. That tci, correctly or
otherwise, It matters not ris deemed by MAJ
ny of her citizens TO be treason, The people
are greatly excited they are now earnestly
engaged in settling this question in ccnsti-
tutional and peaceable manner. How dare a
foreigner TO come among us and NEEDLE with
this delicate question: Where does Mr..
Clay, Mr.. Criltendon, or Mr., any other. citi.
izen Of another State, derive The right to en-
ter the borders Of Ohio, and susiain or con-
demn the acl by which the legislative branch
of the governmental has been brokon up-Vio-
lenlly dissolved. II peculiarly a QUESTION
for the people of Ohio to determine for them-
selves. A citzsn Of another State has no
more right to enter the territory Of Ohio with
the view Of discussing this subject or any
other subj which, in the remo,est degree, 10
to effect The decision ofthis question, than a
citizen France or EngIa We say then,
let no citizen of another State come into Ohio
with the view of addressing her people, lflet
alone, Ohio will settle this question correctly,
and in a1peaceable manner, fgoaded by in
suit and injury no one can predict the conse-
quences. isR 'als H'aet ~ t-.i 70 '.'Hf
The Constitution Of Ohio provides for the
continuance in Office Of the acting Governor
until his successor is sworn into Office, Supa

prevent his Inauguration. Gov. Corwin holds
on. Mr.. Clay 10 elected to the Pr esidency.
Mr.. Crittenden is called into the Cabinet.
The people Of Ohio resolve not 10 submit to
the usurpalion Of Gov. COrwin. A collision
enSues. The Governor calls upon the Ge;''

Mr.. Clay and Mr.. Crttendon have prejudged
the case? The invitation of,he Wing Gem

the purpose Of Mr.. Clay TO accept the invita-
,iou, prove satisfactorily to our mind that the
one is not entitled 10 The confidence Of the
