COUNTY CONVENTION.
To the Wings Of Carroll County,

Your Central Committee have fixed upon Sat
urday, the 9TH day of August next, (l848) as
the time, andthe Court House at Carrollton, the
place, for holding amdSS convention of the Wings
of Carroll, for the purpose of nominating can,
ddates for the Legislature and county officers,
together with an appointment Of one delegate
from each township to district convention, to
nominate candidate for Congress, for the 17th
Congressional district of Ohio, at the approach
ing October election, and to dosuch other things
as may be essential to secure harmonious con-
cert in action of the Wings of Carroll in the
coming State and Presidential elections.
We have to elect TWO members of the House
Of Representatives, in common with Tuscara-
was county, Zone of whom will be from the
county of Carroll,) one County Commissioner,
one Recorder, one Coroner, one County Sur
veyor, and one Poor House Director, for Car
roll county.
We urge upon you that you come from each
of the several townships of the county, in mass,
(or if you choose by delegates.) The preser-
vation of your State Government, and all that
is dear to the citizen, are at stake on the issue of
the approaching State election. The preserva-
ton of your Banking institutions, reared up a.
midst the contentious of party strife, by the
Wing party, are openly threatened with annih-
lation if the Locofocos get the ascendency.-
The Apporonment law of last winter will be
repealed, and an odious, unjust and lniquitous
one passed, which will disfranchise you, if the
Locofocos get the Legislature.
The importance of having good men and true
selected for the Legislature and Congress is ap-
parent to all. The arrangements necessary to
giving TO the Wing nominees Of the National
Convention, "TAYLoR AND FILLMORE" Uigor-
Gus support atthe Presidential election will claim
the attention Of the Convention. We say, give
your attendance in council, at Carrollton, at IL
o'clock, M, on the 9Th of August next.
The selection of officers is the business Of
THE PEOPLE. Let THE PEOPLE attend to it. Our
Government and its long settled policy require,
and the interest of the State demands that Ohio
be saved; and that the Goths and Vandals be dri
ven from the capital of the Republic.

Chairman Of the Wing Central Committee.

To the Readers of the Free Press.

Finding myself, after mature deliberation, un-
abletoyield any support the nominee of the late
Wing National Convention, retire from the ed
itoriOl department of this paper. 1t is not me-
cessary, at this time, that should make an ex-
position of my present position; suffice it to say
that am an "Ultra Whig,"-one that regards
principles as paramount to every other couside-
ration; and, therefore, cannot conscientously
aid in the elevation Of any man who was willing
"to accept nomination from a National Con-
ven,ion, should such be held, for the Presiden-
cy, from the Wings or Democrats, or from both,
should they think proper totenderit, without be.
ing pledged, or even considering myself so, to
advocate tho views or opinions of either" As
General Taylor, by his own showing, is not TO
be the "advocote" of Wing principles, | con-
ceive that, in his presentpostion, supporting him
would be virtual abandonment of those princi-
pies, and, therefore, must decline to become his
"advocate." JOHN PORTER.

GEN. TAYLOR AND THE VoLUNTEERs-ANoTH.
ER VoTE.-lt appears from column and half
in the Ohio Statesman, copied from Coshocton
paper, that a few of the Locofoco volunteers
proved, while in Mexico, that the force of their
old habits was stronger than the wholesome reg.
uatons Of the army; and the way they proved
this was by robbing hen.roosts, and other simi.
lar Locofoco sports. Well, it also appears that
old Zack did not approve of stealing. and SO
promptly put a stop TO it; and because he did,
citizen Sam Medary exposes his moral sense by
expending any quantity of the most moving
lacrymose wrath on the devoted head of Gen.
Taylor. But 10 the credit ofthe Volunteers be
il said, that they stand by their old General

Evacuation Of Mexico.

To-day, in all probability, our flag will be struck
in Vera Cruz-the last point of conquered Mexico
in possession Of our arms. Peace has restored to
the Mexicans their fertile empire, and the more
northern American TO the bosom Of his family
Scarce more than two years have flown since the
struggle commenced on the fields of Pao Alto, from
which period a succession of brilliant victories
lighted the path of our warriors to the centre OF
Mexico. In every direction, like an irresistible
torrent, our forces-sma but indomitable-bore in
triumph the flag of our republic, until our stubborn
foe was forced to make those concessions which the
Justice of our cause demanded and which we had
amicably sought TO obtain eer one life was wasted
in the strife Of war. In the midst Of our glory hot
tears have stolen from the fountains of sorrow to
moisten the graves ofthe departed, Butnow, peace,
with her luminous wings, scars above the land so
recently made desolate by the roar and carnage OF
battle The innocent of deluded Mexico are no
longer startled from their stolen slumber by the fear
of invading foes and our citizen army is steadily
and quietly being lost in the ocean Of civil life, to
think of their achievements as being only the result
OF their duty to the republic Our flag is struck on
the enemy's shore, and the last of our valiant
soldiers will soon taste the happiness of home. To
them, too much honor cannot be shown; and while
the republic is filed with joy and pride by the re-
nown our arms have acquired in the esteem of the
world, let every heart throb with heroic sorrow for
the departed of our hosts
