The receipt of -four is the largest ever known in
one day.
The two wings of the whig army begin already
to show their teeth-the defeat Of Mr.. Fish for
lieutenant governor being the immediate provocation.
The Express drew first blood day or two ago
when it stated OF this result:
"lf Mr.. Young, unfortunately, and from III
health, should be taken from Us, and Addison Gar
diner be made our governor by means Of the villain
trick upon Mr.. Fish's friends, the coalition
would then have perfected It's rSTAMr."
The Tribune ofths morning in a column or so Of
its peculiar eloquence and argument, attempts to
parry the blow; to which the Express Of this even
ing exclams, ooh oh ~ and threatens an expo
sure of the ''riLIainors trick"
The wings had their grand pow.wow over their
victory in this State-in the Park last night. The
evening was fine enough to permit large crowd Of
spectators. The enthusiasm however was not quite
what the fireworks deserved: they really bril-.
liant. The rockets in particular went off in man
ner entirely suitable to the occasion. They rose
swiftly and with great noise and light, but fell in
invisible darkness, "just as easy as"-lyng They
seemed proper emblems of the wings.
There is report in town on good authority that
N. J. Beach, claimed by the wings as senator elect
from the 5th senatorial district, is dead. He was
certainly dangerously i'll at the last accounts. John
Young, who has also been severely ill., (hcmorrhsge
at the lungs is said to be recovering Mike Walsh
the subterranean Gracious of New York, member o +
ele is still
the cause as tho wing governor elect. Y.

Mr.. Webster is reported to have said in the
course of his great speech the other day at the wing
rally in Boston:
"The natural justice of war it is perhaps, not
an American habit to consider. But it is an Amer
lean habit 10 count The cost"
After that-talk after that, of the Angs of for
eign sanderers at the Americans devotion to the
almighty dolIar' They fully endorsed by the
great American orator and statesman, and by the
wing meeting which listened to him in silence APP
plause. Out upon the par,isanship which could so
deaden men to every feeling Of patriotism self
respect
II might be worth while to ascertain under what
circumstances precisely, Mr.. Webster delivered this
speech; for he is unfortunately remarkable for after
curacy to his veracity.
Of about the same character is another assertion
of his in the same harangue-that the war with
Mexico was not voted for by Congress, but was
made by Mr.. Polk-when he knows, well as he
knows the United States Bank that the vote in Con-
gress declaring war was all but unanimous, there
being no opposition unless from mutinous Massa-
cbusetts, and even from her not worth naming.
| Considering that are now in the immediate
reach of the a-des,royng tariff it is really remark
able with what blind devotion the manufacturers
rushing needessly upon their ruin. One Of our
high tariff papers, the Buffalo Commercial Advert
SER contains in the following detailed account of a
new cotton factory just put into operation in that
city, by the Messrs. Tanner the best answer to the
parc twaddle with which its columns abound;
"The building, which is of brick, is capacous,
consisting of three stories above the basement, 100
feet in length by sixty in width. The basement is
! occupied for throste spinning, machine shop, and
engine ROOM the first story above the basement
weaving shop, containing some 76 looms, the second
| cardng room, where the cotton is prepared for
spinning, and the third for the dressing Of the yarn
its preparation for the looms, and the spinning Of
the filing. Some seventy -six looms and three thou
sand five hundred spndles are in full operation
turning out about 1850 yards per day, and giving
employment to fifty operatives. The improvements
around the main building are extensive, some six
teen thousand dollars over and above the amount of
purchase having been expended in their construc-
lion. The lot, which is 200 feet by 1885, is enclosed
by five spacious tenements designed for residences
and warerooms, with grass-pIot in the centre of the
yard, and altogether presenting as neat and beautiful
f,.t in Nauy H.
machinery used in the factory is of the most i'm
proved kinds, portion being Of eastern manufac-
ture, the balance imported lately from England"
People who take such pains to be ruined must be
rather fond of it than otherwise,
The Tribune Of this afternoon admits that Tharp
(dem) has been elected governor in Delaware, but
claims tho congressman and legislature; without
giving up these last, yet, we may ask, when did that
blue little State ever before elect democratic gov
ernori
The wings begin to find out that, in hurraing
over Michigan, they were over fast The Albany
Evening Journal, of last night, has this ,elegraphic
despatch
"BuFFALo, Nov. 10, p. m.
News from Michigan looks locofocoish.
Though the wings have gained largely, they have
not probably carried the legislature nor the con-
gressmen."
Well--T shouldn't wonder ~
Later and more extensive information from the
Westminster and Rockland congressional district
confirm, beyond doubt, the opinion expressed in
recent letter, that Nelson's victory there was ow-
ing entirely to local causes, and had no reference
whatever to national nor even to State politics So
the wiseecre of the Express must Try again.
The new constitution is adopted beyond doubt.
