yYhlg Candidate for Governor.

Who shall be the next Wing candidate
fr Governor! This question has re-
Gently been considerably discussed BY the
?ublic press in some sections Of the State;
but from al We have seen and heard on
the subject, we are not enabled TO say
that public opinion has centred upon any
one individual. The friends of Gen.
Irwin and the friends Of Mr.. Cooper ap-
pear to have been the most active, each
party urging the claims Of their favorite
with considerable zeal. Against neither
Of these gentlemen have we anything to
say: on the contrary, we respect both for
their sound political principles and pri-
vate virtues. Should the contest be mar
rowed down to them, however, we, Ike
Others, will have our individual preference,
which in that event we shall III due time
make known. But we incline to the
opinion that Gen. Markle viii be the
Wing candidate, provided be will again
accept Of nomination. OF his claims
upon the people of Pennsylvania, and es-
Pecially upon the Whig party, 1t is not
necessary for us at this time to speak;
they arc known to all. He consented to
become the Wing candidate before, when
there was but little prospect of success
for the party; and now, that the prospect
is encouraging, we deem it due to him

Wings, if they be wise, will not be slow

by their ever-active opponents. The en-
suing Gubernatorial election will in all
probability be warmly contested one,
and the sooner the Wings prepare for it
the better will it be for them.
While on Ibis subject, we may rs well
call the attention of our Wing and Anti

the fact, that here we are entirely without

nents a real old-iashioned defeat.

A COLLISION AT SEA

The New York Express says that 'the
brig Maria Spear, Capt. Prior, sailed from
New York, on Saturday, 18th October
loaded with grain for Londonderry, Ire-
land. On Monday, at o'clock, 20 min
utes, off Montauk, it being very rainy
and dark, came in contact with the new
ship Roman, lin ballast from Newburv-
port for New York. The brig was to-
tally dismasted, and lost her bowsprit.
and had her starboard bow stove in. II
was found impossible to manage the brig
or keep her afoat. At A. NJ, the cap
tain and crew were taken off by the Swe-
dish brig Albion, from Bremen for New
York, and arrived last evening. The
starboard bow was almost wholly cut off,
so that lhe anchor fell overheard. A sal
lor by the name of Jordan, from Boston,
was at the wheel at the time Of the col
lision, and was thrown overheard by the
shock. The Roman was also abandoned
i'll sinking condition, and her crew taken
off by the Albion.

FROM SANTA FE.

Gen. kEARNEY, with about 600 men,
left Santa Fc on the Sd September for the
Rio Ahajo, or the settlements below on
the Rio Grande. 1t was understood that
he would descend to Socorro, where he
was to erect fortification. On his route
he intended 10 visit Albuquerque, seventy
five miles below Santa Fe, the residence
of Ex-Governor ARMIJo. The position
of the Ex-Governor was not known
Gen. kearncy expected TO be absent on
this expedition from fifteen 10 twenty
davs.
Gen. Kearnev was erecting fort on
an eminence TO the northeast of Santa
Fe, by throwing up strong embankment,
and covering the exterior with sun-dried
bricks. A good road had3been construct
ed up the eminence to the fort. Its pos
ton is such as to command the town and
surrounding country. The work was
progressing rapidly. The General was
rapidly winning the good opinion Of the
Mcxicans by his mild and conciliatory
course.
Upon the arrival Of Col. Prices regi-
ment and the battalion Of Mormons, Gen.
Kearney would set out for California. 1t
was understood that the expedition would
be divided into three parties, and would
pursue different routes, until they arrived
near the Pacific coast. Monterey is to
be the termination of the expedition, a
distance, by the nearest route, OF abont
twelve hundred miles. A very large por-
ton Of the country over which either ex-
petition must travel is represented as bar

From, Fort LearenyyortE,.

The ST. Louis New Era learns that
trains of wagons laden with provisions,
arc still going out from Fort Leavenworth
to Santa Fe. On the 29th Sept, some
forty or fifty started, and the two or three
DAYS previous to that time, more than fii-
ty others were put under way. AT the
Fort, on the 3Gth. there was another train
getting ready, and would start in day or
two. 1t is computed that over 1000 wa
CONS have left that point within the last
four months, for Santa Fe, laden with ar
my stores TO keep Gen. kearney in Mex
leo. It is very probable thousand will
have to be sent every four months during
his stay. This conquest Of New Mexi-
co, we are inclined to believe, will cost
more than i. will ever come TO.

An easy method Of taking San
