i The WING CONVENTIONAL few coons
from IL or Is counties, came together in
this city on the 9Th inst. DR.. John w.
King, formerly Of Rankin, but now of Co.
ahoma, was called 10 the chair, and DR..
Rogers, of Monroe, was appointed Sc
creary.
4 The meeting had proceeded thus far To-
wards organization, when the question was
sprung, whether it should be called wing
convention, or common wing meeting.--
Several speakers elaborated the subject.
II was commended that the wings at all
times had ever eylnced the greatest hor-
ror OF caucuses; that to that cause might
be attributed the meagerness Of the repre-
sentalon OF coondom then in conelave.
One said that the wings of Misslssippiiet
most commendable distaste for office
that the wings were a working siay.at-
home people, and had not time 10 turn out
TO conventions as their opponents had
(This was little too strong for even the
coons, some Of whom looked amazed at
the reckless Munchausenism OF the spea-
ker, while others laughed outright. We
do not intend TO give even an outline of
the debate; it took very wide range.
One more daring than the rest, in his ter
rible thrusts at locofoeoism, said he was in
favor Of letting Mississippi 90 to the devil,
and take stock inhis dominions-fo what
purpose we could not hear The same
speaker rallied against the Briscoc bill, and
applaudcd by his hearers, invited every
wing present who was in favor of that mea-
sure 10 retire from tho convention, and
from the parry! Finally, committee was
appointed to say what should be done, and
in the afternoon, the convention resolved
itself into common Chat was the name

80 1t appears that whiggery is not quite
deinnct IN Mississippi, and "thc boys"
are resolved TO hola ga stiff upper lip"
whlle longer. Their nominees are men
who reflect credit upon the party, and al
though destined 70 be soundly thrashed,
they will fight right gallantly. The ides
Of November will furnish another memo.
Eable instance proving that the wings are
siay-at-homc people.
