From the Wing

IL will be seen, that the Central COMMITTEES
have recommended to the party throughout the
State, TO hold Convention in this city on the 22d
OF February next. The object is to appoint dele
gates to the National Consenton-,o form a
ticket OF Electors, and to organize for the Spring
elections.
There is no diversity Of opinion in the Wing
party respecting thei, candidate for the Presiden-
cy, and therefore II is unnecessary to incur the
trouble of appointing delegates by Districts.
AZ the National Convention viii not have as
sembled. it will be necessary to appoint ticket
to vote for the nominees; or incur the expense
and troubre Of second Convention, and that at
too late day for the electors TO take The field,
with effect
From information from varions parts Of the
State, we presume the proposition will be unver-
sally acceded to, and that the Wings in every
county, will, al their earliest convenience, appoint
delegates TO the February Convention.
BY that lime, we hope to have our Log Cabin
constructed for the reception Of the members.
N. Ii. 1t is especially desirable that each coun.
~ shall be represented by at least one Delegate,
independent of proxies.
