Immense Gathering OF the Whigs OF New

Immense Gathering OF the Wings OF New
Jersey
The Wing Convention at Trenton, New Jersey,
on Wednesday last the greatest political assem-
blage of the wings which has ever been collected
together within the borders of that very gallant
State. The day was remarkably fine, and the place
of meetlng-the State-IIouse yard--well adapted
for the assembly Of such an immense multitude,
and there were probably less than eleven thousand
persons on the ground The badges, banners and
smblems Of the delegations from the various coun-
ties were very tasteful, and with the gay summer
dresses Of the numerous ladies who favored the oc
casion with their presence, gave the scene quite an
animated and picturesque character. A remark
able degree of enthusiasm inspired the multitude,
and the feeling which was displayed in the various
routes by which the delegations reached the place
of meeting, was we were told quite unparalleled
in the history of eectioneering within the sober
bounds of New Jersey.
About o'clock the long procession OF the dele
cations reached the State House, and the conven-
ton organized by the appointment of Cover
nor PENNINGTON as President, and number of Vice
Presidents and Secretaries. After the letters OF
apology for absence from the Hon. Messrs FIRE.
LINGHUYsoN and CLAYTON, had been read by the
chairman, recess of half an hour was taken, in
order to afford the delegates from the respective
counties opportunity of consulting together in
order select their district electors for President
and Vice President
After this business had been effected, the Con-
vention was again called to order, and the report
was made by the nominating Committees.
This report, after introducing number of reso-
utons ofthe usual cast, and one aluding to Daniel
Webster in warm and complimentary manner,
which was received with loud applause, returned
the following as the names OF the electors

WASHINGTON CITY, Oct. 20, 1874.
a Duel on the Tapis-Iack Do,oning's Opinion on
it-Joel SutherLand-Ro 7ylcr-RaI Roads.
FRIEND BENNETT
This city was in a great state Of excitement last
night, owing to report, which was not false, that
a duel was to take place between Robert Boyce
and Mr.. Gewon, son of one of the ex-Governor's
of the State Of Maryland. 1t appears that Doctor
Young, Of this city, challenged DR.. Robert Boyce,
MI. Gewoin refused TO fight, because, as he said,
the Doctor was no gentleman. AS matter Of
course, the second Of Mr. B. was obliged to send
his name, according to the strict rules of what IS
called honor They were to meet this, Sunday,
morning somewhere The police got on the scent
about o'clock. They ransacked Browns hotel,
where one Of the parties had registered his name,
and also all the other principal hotels in the city,
without success, and up to P. M, this day,
nothing could be heard Of the parties The i'm
preston is that they crossed into Virginia, owing
to the fact Of some four or FIVE officers having gone
this morning from Bladensburgh (the great battle
ground) in search of the boys. What the result
will be, is not as yet known My impression s,that
il will terminate in the conjugation of the verb
"shoot," as Jack Downing interpreted it, "shoot-
shot," &c
The Exchange hotel in Baltimore is decidedly
one Of the best there. 1t is kept by Mr.. Coleman,
whose name, with his associate Mr. Allen, is sui.
icient guarantee to satisfy any one of hearty
welcome and good cheer.
The Hon. Joel B. Sutherland and Robert Tyler,
Esq left in the cars this evening on their way TO
Philadelphia. l do think that Robert is the
finest fellow that visits the White House. He is
decidedly man OF more talent than you have given
him credit for. As Tor his honesty as a politician,
no one doubts it who knows him.
There has been much complaint made as regards
the monopoly, a-it is termed here. mean the rail
road line between Baltimore and Washington, bur
the fact is, the whole blame rests the members OF
the Legislature Of Maryland. The State exacts
from the company fifty cents for each passenger
red again TO ret the LEGISLATURE 10 reuea The law
without success. The verygentlemaniy conductors,
Messrs. Stack and Clark, show every attention to
passengers. P. S.

Mr.. FDTToR:-
communication appeared in the Herald Of yes
terday in relation to the New York Sacred Music
Society which, if permitted to 60 unnoticed, might
perhaps prejudice the society in the rinds Of per
sons ignorant of the source from whence the silly
paragraph emanated. The writer charges, that the
society advertise the tickets for their oratories at
one dollar each, and that the day before the
performance is 10 come off the members go
drumming them off among their friends at 80 cenu
etch !" He is no friend OF the society, or he would
have sought information that would have saved
him from ridicule and from the trouble Of writing
the paragraph
The plan by which the society is now managed
subjects each member thereof to a pro rata assess
ment sufficient cover the expenses OF the public
performances, and all incidental expenses when
ever it shall be deemed by the members them
selves necessary to levy such tax. and for every
dollar so assessed each member receives two ad
mission tickets. These they are at liberty to
either give away or dispose Of for any price they
can get The object Of this arrangement is two
fold it enables the society to get up their perfor
mances in a much better manner than heretofore
aud protects them from loss under any circum.
stances.
Your correspondent is at liberty, therefore, to
purchase ticket at one dollar, or drum up'
members ticket at half price as may best suit his
interest.

LAST KICK OF THE KETcHuM CLIoUE.-A very

last night by the section Of the Wings who 60 for
Hiram Ketchum. Serious doubts had been enter
tanned, by sundry well-informed persons, as to the
physical ability Of said section to give even re-
spectacle "last kick, but the section accomplished
the feat at the Tabernacle last evening, or rather
Mr.. Ketchum did, by pouring out, for two hours OF
thereabouts the violence, bigotry, assertion, de
clamation, quotations, extracts, statistics, texts
and bombast contained in the speech-the everlast
ing, the patent India rubber speech about the
school law, and the bible and the Pope. The
Tabernacle was well filled-the galleries being
crowded with ladies' The audience got rather
fdgetty towards the last, and Mr.. Ketchum con.
cIuded somewhat abruptly by exhorting his audi
tors, with characteristic modesty, not to vote fol
any other candidate but himself, as he was the
only man who. could and would settle the schoo
question to the satisfaction of all creation. Mr.
keichum will have to kick again and little hard
