Conference.-The Wing Central Com,
m;,tee some two months ago, requesleu
the WHY'S of the several Counties OF Tue
Stale 10 assemble in their primary meet
ings TO appoint delegates to this ooh.en'
hon. That call was responded to from
the Seaboard to the Mountains. from Tue
Northern 10 the Southern limits oil the
State. There is probably not q ooun'S
I in the State, which has not held It's meet
ing and appointed long list Of delegates
/ 10 this Convention. And although from
various causes many have failed TO attend,
sill il is source of qualification to hnd SO
many in attendance from nearly all Sec
tons d, the State. Those primary meet
ings have not only appointed delegates TO
this Convention, but have passed reso!u'
tons, pedging their support to me- pth'
iciples, Wing measures and Wing men.-
The spirit, zeal aud harmony by when
these meetings have been animated has IN
deed been admirable, aud affords a sure
pledge Of the triumph of Wing principles
in ls4i.

Candidate to he voted for by the Wings
of the State for Governor in lo4i-and to
. appoint two delegates for the Stale at
Ilarrc to attend the Baltimore Wing Ma
tioual Convention. The names OF many
gentlemen have been brought forward by
their friends as entitled to the support OF
: the Wing party Tor Governor, and 1t IS
! surely matter of pride TO fnd IN our
ranks so many Wings, any one OF whom
}. would wor,hily and honorubly I'LL the Gu
+ bcrnatorial Cair. II is your duty TO select
= one out of this list to be recommended to

charge OF this duty, am sure | need moi
iurce upon YOU the necessity of dlscardIng

man who viii most etfectually rally The

objects will, | trust aud believe, receive
your hearty and unanimous support.
