WING NOMINATIONS FOR THE STATE
0E NEW YORK

The nomination of John Young for Governor,
[savs the ". Y. Evening POST does not seem TO
be very cordially received in certain quarters
Mr.. Younss reputation as an anti-renter causes
some OF the Wings 10 make wry faces al the no.
mination. There is a good dea Of alarm among
some worthy old gentlemen Of the Wing parry,
who have given leases OF their property.
The nomination is a triumph Of the Evening
Journal faction. They have had their way in
the Convention, as We were sure, with their
greater cunning and activity, would be The case.
They will find il much more difficult, We fancy,
10 elect their candidate for Governor Than they
have found it 10 nominate him.
The Albany Atlas has this remark:
"The nomination seems 10 have been made in
striking disregard OF The warning and admonition
which The National Intellisencer (the special or
gan OF Mr.. Clay gave the Convention.
"'Let no man be selected i, said, as candi-
dale for The prominent office, agains, whom strong
p!eiudices have been excited, whether those preju-
dicss are we'll or i'll founded. Wecannot Try thai
question at The polls II any candidate is forced
upon the Convention y-t5his defeat is certain
Ii would be much better TO take an entirely new
man, whose principles are known and establish
al, than 10 hazard an election with the best man
in the State with ptejudices against him 1T
his duty is sisregarded, it added, I'VE shall be de-
feated'"

MR.. CLAY AND AID vALoREM DUTIES.

The Times does "not deem il necessary TO
make rejoinder" TO our article, las the Enquirer
alleges no new matter in refulalon Of our Ohe
TimvsO reasoning" Well, be ii 50! We doubt
not, that The readers Of each paper have had
enough of The discussion. Each Of us, too, is
doubtless satisfied that he has maintained his re-
spective position. We feel SO, clearly, although
the Wing, charitable soul, has pity upon The ''pros
tralc" Standard and Enquirer and yetannounces,
with all The strength OF his lungs, the triumphant
vindicalion Of MIR. Clay" We dismiss the subject
with single word as to the remark Of the Times,
shat Mr.. Davis construction Of The (compromise)
act and The resolutions (of Mr. Clay) is not the
point on which we Ohe Times,) made issue."-
But, That was the question, when we took up and
criticised Mr.. Garrett Davis defence of Mr.. Clay,
so prominently brought forward by the Wing
press. True, we expanded the subject little,
and eve think we have shown" b. MIR. Clay's
speech in 1912, that he was in favor II nd ralorenl
in preference 10 specific duties. The more the
matter has been agiaied, The more convinced are
We that his language at that time admitted OF no
other construction.

IMMIGRATION TO LOWER VIRGINIA

IMMIGRATION TO LOWER VIRGINIA.
IN farther illustration cf his Interesting sub
isct we extract second article Of "Appomatox"
from the Petersburg In!ellisencer. The author
is successful practical cutiyalor Of The soil, and
his experience and information eniille his opinion
To great weight. The Iniclligencer, calling The
attention OF the public to the article says with
ioIcc:
mo Stale in The Union has suffered more from
emigration Than Virgi mia. The Eastern parl oil
The Slaie, on account OF its slave property, being
diminished in value by an e1hausling mode Of
cultivation, has been the greatest sufferer By this
drain and whether or not the emigran,s have
been made richer b. their change, there can be
no question that the Stale has been made poorer
ANY practicable mode oil either stopping This
drain. or Of introducing laboring white popn-
laiion in the place Of the slave property that Is
yearly distracted from The State, is well worthy
Of the attention of the citizens OF Virginia.
"The class OF persons referred 10 by "APPo-
mauox" have, wherever they have lived, been re-
parded as most useful population. "A Quaker
farmer, and a thrifty and ilusirious man, nave
become almost synonymous. Neatness soofleiy,
industry and thrift, seem 10 follow The "Friends
wherever they go, and We know OF no people

~ few days since, we conversed with gen.
tlcman in our immediate vicinity, who has du-
ring The last seven months travelled throughout
The country and visited nearly every State in thet
Union. In his travels he visited many persons
who had emigraied from Aibemarle county, and
who are now settled in tie West Some oil
these persons are signing for The homes in the
Red Land District, which they left behind and
her advice To all their friends, who by any
means can obtain ,oerabe support, is, 10 ''tcK
TO their native sol,' and not 10 emsrale. In
wears that have passed, many of our most valua-
BILE farmers and citizens have removed from Al
bemarle and settled in some OF The Western States,
and from present indications many others are
DESTROYS OF following them. We trust before they
finally determine they will ponder upon tie at-
vice sen, back Nv those who have already made
The experiment, and have experienced the dim

HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM NAUVOO.
THE CITY DELIVERED INTO THE HANDS OF
THE ANTI MURMONS.
From The officers and passengers of The Alva-
rado we gather The following particulars
Steamer Alvarado arrived al the landing this
morning from Keokuk. She brings down
large number of Mormons, who have abandoned
the Holy City after all the troubles and difficult
ties.
Alter much skirmishing, and several persons
being killed during Sunday, and the three DAYS
following, on Thursday The An,i-Mormons enter
ed the city in very large body, and all COM
petely armed.
A parey was held, which resulted in a demand
that The Mormons and all in lie eay engaged in
lie troubles, should leave Nauyoo within five
days, and al once deliver their persons, ms, am
munilion, and the city itself, into the hands Of The
AnIi-Mormons This was al last complied with,
but whether from fear, inclination, or mere de-
sire 10 avoid bloodshed we have not yet learned.
The An'-Mormons then took possession OF every
thing, and Of course, in contradiction OF the late
orders Of the Governor Of Illinois, and contrary
10 law. Immediately The Mormons began to leave
the city. "A large number started on the AlYara-
90, and many on The Potos.
On the opposite shore VIC understand that the
people or authorities Of Iowa had nteriercd 10
prevent those Tearing from entering that terrific
ry. They must, consequently, come 10 this city,
and from here scatter abroad
We also learn that The Temple will be allowed
| 10 remain unframed, but we much doubt This,
and should not Be surprised il the next arrival
brought news Of The destruction Of this beautiful
building IS well as The dwelling OF Emma Smith.
IL is but right 10 state, however, that thus far
no violence has been done either 10 The people or
10 the building or properly, and we sincerely rust
that We may not be compelled 10 chronicle The
news 10 The contrary

THE MExlcAN WAR Further accounts from the
Mexican frontier look and more warlike, and rem
der il very certain that Mexico does not intend to yield
10 the claims OF government without struggle. 1t
should be borne in mind, that the section Of County in
which Gen. Taylor is now quartered with the American
army is beyond the limits of Texas il defined
der the Mexican rule, and is believe portion of the
State of 'Tamaulpas. The river Neuces was the wes-
tern boundary of Texas but government claim 10
extend it TO the Rio Grand del Norte which will nearly
quite double the territory of Texas including consd
cradle portions of the State of Tamaupas, chihuahua
and Coahuila
The New York Tribune says, in relation 10 The last
news -
The fruit of the Texas Inquity begins to ripen Our
Army of Occupation-nsanely and wckedy pushed
across the weknown boundary of Texas into the heart
of province Of Mexico Of mistaken loyalty, so as 10

that Republic and threaten its important town. al

gered! Messengers from the beeagued camp opposite

ling into the field heavy Militia force 10 hasten 10 the
reliefofGen Taylor, without waiting the orders
of their respective Governors There no longer be
doubt Of a collision. and probably bloody battle will
have been fought before the Louisianians shall have
reached the Rio del Norte. 6m
We have confidence in the wisdom Of our officers and
the bravery of soldiers If Gen Taylor attacked in
his camp, the Mexicans sill be Thoroughly beaten But
ifthey avoid combat with bin carefully maintain their
advantage Off position, and pour overwhelming force
upon Point Isabel shall we not have papabe reason TO
regret this unjustifable invasion Who must not lament

FIRE ENGINES SUPERSEDED. The firemen
will learn with pleasure that Mr. Philips Of London
has lately invented ''fre anhlator for insantane-
ously extingushIng fires by aerated vapor." he
principles, says foreign journal, are chemical,
and they proceed on facts deduced from consider
atoms OF the source ofall power-chemical action
Fire, in the ordinary accaPtaton of the term, is
phenomenon which results from the union of OK
ygen, the supporter OF combustion, hydrogen, the
element OF fame, and carbon, the element of light
1t the oxygen be withdrawn, the fire ceases =
This the fire annihilator accomplishes. Jet of
peculiar gaseous vapor, which possesses greater
affinity for the oxygen of the air than the oxygen
has for the hydron and the carbon with which it
is combined, is simultaneously generated by the
machine, and thrown with extraordinary rapidity
on the fire, which being instaneously deprived OF
the supporter of combustion, at once ceases The
extinction is so sudden thatin the case of strong
fire, which Mr. Philips put on board vessel in
the Thames, the operation did not occupy one
second.
