THE 10TH OF OCTOBER.

We look forward TO the 10th of October
in anticipation of the most animated and
soul.strring Convention that has ever as
sembled in our State since its foundation.
The noble Wings of Missouri, never dis
couragod, always full of hope, even while
contending against superior numbers, rely
ing upon the strength of their principles
have already carried the battle to the gates,
and at the last elections blow was given
that has struck terror to the hearts of our
opponents and made the lettering fabrick
of Locofocoism tremble to its very base;
but they have reserved until November the
final and decisive blow. Another such blow
in November as was given in August, will
redeem our State! and the Wings are bent
upon her redemption. Every where
throughout the State so far as we can learn,
they are rallying for the struggle, and they
propose holding grand council of war"
at this place previous TO the battle. Old
Howard promises to send her thousand; we
look for as many from Boone. We expect
St. Louis to pour in her steamboat loads,
and Lafayette and Saline to come down in
a solid body. The southern counties will
pour in their hundreds and thousands, and
every county in the State, it is hoped will
be represented in convention on that glori-
Gus day..
We understand the committees appointed
for the purpose have addressed letters of in
vitation to many of our most distinguished
orators and statesmen, some of whom, at
least, it is expected will be with us.--Boon.

reasons, why mere person should sustain him?
He is known to be vain, naughty, arrogant, arts.

Disappointing neither friend nor foe to
differ from him, and allowing none TO approach
him, in private, but TO receive and disseminate

treat the mass Of the people as vast military
camp, hearing only to obey, through every grade
of commander, from the general inchief to the
fourth corporal. Is this an imperfect picture? II
so, account for the political head at Washington,
whose vocation it is TO control and allay the CON-
manders Of States, and through them the COM
manders of counties, who argue and beat down
the Independent and proud spirit OF the people,
which would revolt at such foul dictation, were
it not Systematically taught under the alluring
and seductive name Of democracy.
Away, then, with every idea, or inclination
which leans towards Thomas Hart Benton. For
ourselves, we can scarcely think or speak OF his

He has wheedled, beguiled, bamboozled, and
humbugged them, in a manner, and to an extent,
unparalleled in the representative world. If he
can deceive them again, when in the very act
Of betrayal, let him do it-but let no wing tamper
with his ball and thimble.

Dixon's majority,

GFSome locofoco in Maysville, KY, wrote
to the editor of the Albany Argus, that Governor
LErcHER had abandoned Mr.. CLAY. Gov. l..
has writted letter contradicting the SANDER in
which he says he is and has been the warm per.
sonal and political friend OF Mr.. G. for quar-
ter Of a century, and is stll-that he is the man,
and the only one, who ought to be called to the
head Of this nation. Whenever you hear a loco
asserting that prominent wing has joined the
Polkat party, contradict it or the spot.
Boon's Lick times. [volume] (Fayette, Mo.) 1840-1848, 1844-08-31

We entirely concur in the following,
which we find in the last Palmyra Whig:-
THE "SorTs The ticket formed upon
this section ofthe Locofoco party has failed;
that is, has not been elected: and yet the
Softs, as a party, have accomplished. all
that patriots ought to desire. Office they
have not obtained; but what measure did
they advocate which has not triumphed..
They were the first to move the project OF
districting the State-they first denounced
the tyranny of the Currency bills-they
were The only Locofocos for long time
who approved the calling of Convention.
They have not succeeded in obtaining
office, but they did lash and drive by force
their opponents into these salutary meas
ures. Yes, we are bold TO say it, to Charles
II. Allen and the Independent ticket, is the
credit due of beating down corrupt party
who stood in the opposition to these meas
ures.-The Softs have been few in numbers
fewer than we oxpected-but they have
stricken terror to the hearts of the Hards.
The Softs are out of office, but they are
consoled by q sense of conscious rectitude,
which is worth more than office. The
Hards are in office, but they will feel hui
initiating sense of depravity, and for which
the spendors of no office can atone.

many Of their prominent men have been the ad

that was ever made in Congress for the passage
of Bankrupt Law came from member of heil

Bankrupt Law. We know many democrats ir
this section who did not regard that law as so dc

"Upon reference 10 the Mecklenburg Decla

THE NASHVILLE WING CONVENTION


Our exchanges contain some account OF the
great Wing Convention, held at Nashville, on
the 22d inst. Passengers on boats, who left
there on Thursday, the day Of the Convention,
furnish our St. Louis contemporaries with the
news; which we transfer to our columns. The
day before the Convention TEN THOUSAND
WINGS IN UNIFORM had arrived at Nash.
Vile, and every road leading to the city was
crowded with masses Of people, and every boat
that came up or down, swelled the crowd. The
POLK convention held at the same place the
week previous, was decidedly small potatoes,
compared with this great ingathering OF the Re-
publican Wings Of the land 1t is estimated
that from SIXTY to SEVENTY THOUSAND
persons were present. There were SEVEN.
TEEN THOUSAND IN THE PROCESS.

three thousand voters on the ground. Ruther
lord was next on the list, and 10 Rutherford the

Numerous counties were represented by twelve

demonstration as that made by the Locopoko

WHlG PRINCIPLES.

I. A sound National Currency, regulated by the
will and authority of the Nation.
2. An adequate Revenue with fair Protection to
American Industry.
8. Just restraints on the Executive power, en-
braciug further restriction on the exercise of the
Veto.
a. A faithful administration of the public Co.
main, with an equitable distribution Of the pro-
ceeds of sales Of it among all the States.
s. An honest and economical administration OF
the General Government, leaving public officers
perfect freedom of thought and of the right Of
suffrage; but with suitable restraints against i'm.
proper Interference in elections.
g. An amendment to the Constitution, limiting
the incumbent ofthe Presidential Office to SINGLE
TERM.

1t is remarked by some writer, that "excess OF
ceremony shows want Of good breeding" This
is true. Nothing is more troublesome than over.
done politeness; it is worse than overdone beef.
steak A we'll bred man makes every person
around him feel at ease; he does not throw civil.
tiles around him with shovel, nor toss compli
ments in bundle, as he would hay with pitch
fork. There is no evil under the sun more in.
tolerable than ultra politeness.
II you are young, my friend, it is too soon
10 marry: for liberty is sweet. He must be
a fool, indeed, who deprives himself OF this bles
sing in the flower OF his days. If, on the other
hand, you are old, what would you do with wife?
Be advised, friend, neither to marry, nor to re-
solve upon single life. Remain in suspense
till tomorrow, and death will settle the matter.
Childhood is like mirror, catching and re.
necting images from all around it. Remember
that an impious or profane thought uttered by a
parents lips, may operate upon the young heart
like a careless spray Of water thrown upon pol.
ished steel, staining it with rust which no after.
securing can effect
1t is said that ridicule is the test OF TRUTH il
is never applied, but when we wish to deceive
ourselves; when, If we cannot exclude the light
we are fain to draw a curtain before it, The
sneer springs out Of the wish to deny; and
wretched must he the state OF that mind which
desires to take refuge in doubt! But the instinct
OF right and wrong is immutable; all other voices
may be sllenced, but not that in ourselves
