NJ THE WING WARD MEETINGS held last even
ing were all fully attended, and the proceedings
were very harmonious and enthusiastic Inc
reports from nearly all of them will De iouhu III
succeeding columns The following resolutions
in addition to those printed in connection WIN
the proceedings were adopted, with lmmaterial
verbal variations in one or two cases, III nearly
every Ward; as expressions of the prevailing
sentiment of the Wings Of this city on important
points of party policy, they are valuable and IN
teresting:
Resolved, That hail with unmingiea Joy and triumph
the fact that all sections of the Union and by all varieties
of party sentiment, HENRY CLAY is unanimously re
cogpzed sole candidate Of the Wing party for the Pes
Lency Of the United States
ResaIred That satisfaction at this present aYo"eu una
niny and confidence this result shall not diminish our
vigilance against either open external hostility secret lnef
nal treachery.
Resoped That having had solemn lesson the selec-
ton ola Vice President, if we do not profit by nov" we
shall never deserve success or attain IT.
Resored That, having before suffered by the selection OF
false friend Of HENRY CLAY henceforth We Will tolerate
candidate for the Vice Presidency who not true warm
steady and devoted friend OF him whom recognize as the
life soul and centre of the Wing party, and the embodi-
Of true Wing principles
% The Rochester Erening Post, which
claims to be neutral paper but, like all journals
of the same gender, has asslduously played INTO
the hands of the Loco ocos, rebukes the Argus
for its assaults upon the farmers who attended the
late State Agricultural Fair, and says that that
\ \, ri
senfing its party as hostile to- and the opponents
of its party as the only advocates of, Protective
Tariff" This is hint which indicates much
more than it seems to declare. Committed as
the Loco Foco party is, beyond all redemption,
to the doctrines of Free Trade, all their length
and breadth, and open, decided and bitter as has
been its hostility to Protective Tariff" both
in principle and in detail" as MIR. Van BUREN ex-
presses himself, they are beginning to tremble for
the result when they shall go before the American
people on that great issue. They dare not do 1t
and if Mr. Van Buren, should be their candidate,
as he undoubtedly WILL we venture to predict
that the first effort will be to keep that question
in the back ground, and failing in that they will
repudiatc their opinions and proclaim themselves
The friends of the Tariff. There is no imposition
Too bold, or too bald, for them to attempt; and
when the campaign is fairly opened we shalllook
for Foco pledges in support of a JudiciOus
Tariff discriminating Tariff which may, by
some accident, afford some Protection to Amerl-
can Industry, thick as the hordes of Loco-Foco
ofice-seekers throughout the land. Their organs
will speedily recover their usual tact and play
the game as skilfully as the most neutral paper
in the country could wish.
But it will prove hopeless effort. The war
against Protection has been waged too long, too
violently and too manfully to allow any such re-
reat Meantime, the attempt speaks volumes in
anca,ra sro,,,aut --..I~cf p-,.>-t;--.--'
The AMERICAN SYSTEM. The Post confesses that
the great body of the farmers are in favor of the
Tariff; and the whole party will ere long find
that the people throughout the country are equally
clear and equally firm in their adherence to this
great doctrine.
POPULAR FLArTERY-The Loco ocos used to

Of the dear people, Honeyed words, profound
regard and unboundcd promises were freely
