POLITICAL MOVEMENTS IN new TosK. The
Tribune, which has been heretofore considered
one of the leading Wing journals of New York,
has come out with the extraordinary PROPOSE
ton that the Wings ofthat State shall dissolve
as party and unite with the Abolitionists. THIS
proposal has produced considerable excitement,
as might have been expected, and is denounced
in strong language by the Courier and EnquIr-
er, as treason to the country. We are glad to
see this indignant denunciation by the Courier
and Enquirer Of the infamous project OF the
Tribune. We call it infamous because the de-
sign of the abolition party evidently is, to effect
separation of the Union; and we should be
sorry to see it strengthened by the union with
it of either Wings or Democrats. The Tribune
uses the decision of Congress ON the Texas
question as u pretext for the attempt to induce
the Wings to combine with the Aboutlonlsts;
but it is shallow pretence. The annexation
of Texas forms no ust ground for an action
having in view the dissolution of the Union
for, under all circumstances the Union should
be preserved. We were opposed to annexa-
ton but have too much attachment to our
country to desire that, because Congress decid-
ed the question adverse to our views, the con-
fcderacy shall be dissolved The movement in
New York has surprised US, for we never sup
posed it possible, that leaders of the Wing par
ty, or any other party, which protested to have
the interests of the country at heart, could CO.
aesce with the Abolition party.
CONCERT OF Miss BRAMsoN, THIS EVENING.
Our readers will remember that Miss Branson,
the great musical prodigy, will give another
concert this evening at Calvert Hall. Of
course, all who delight in listening to fine mu-
sic, will eagerly embrace the opportunity to be
present The New York Morning News, in
speaking of Miss Bramson's concerts, says:
''To such as know her only by newspaper
report, it would be a hopeless effort to attempt
to give them through that channel an adequate
idea of her astonishing execution. When such
masters of the instrument as Maroncelli pub
! licly declare that in two pieces by Czerny,
ayed BY Miss B., we could hardly credit our
years of age who executed them on an nstru-
mcnt as ungrateful as the piano, with an adj
dress, strength and soupessc, combined with a
kind of ease which is only to be attained by
long experience, some idea OF what her per-
tormances are, may he conlecturcd'"
