The New York Tribune gives an official account Of
the largest meeting held by the wings of the
OF Poughkeepsie, on last Wednesday evening. They
organized themselves into whig association. In their
resolutions it is hard say whether they hit harder at
the barnburning demagogues, ivan Buren, Co.. or cry
more loudly for the Henry Clay platform. The following
are among the resolutions adopted

efforts OF ueacherous demago2ues and spoil hunters n va

duty to resist snch the last and

New ORLEANS, August rs, 1s4s.
There is but single string to the fiddle of southern
federalism and upon that they harp with the most
mendabe vgor; but" by my hadome" it does not appear
attract much attention. Tariffs for the protection "
of ordy northern manufacturersfOr enrchng the few
at the expense of the many-natonal banks and all
other great national questions of primary importance TO
the country, lost sight Of overSlaughed, merged in
the astounding discovery which has been made, that
that that conmendable virtue is scarce commodity in
the ranks of whgery; and, methnks that appearances
are not dlt0dys decei,iul.
There are many who would like to know what const-
utes the old Thunderers peculiar fitness or qualifca
ton for the high aud responsible office of President of
these United States. Is it because having spent forty
years OF his life in camp, with perfect and acknowledged
ignorance, only of the science of political economy
and civil government but also OF the great principles at
issue before the people; is it that he is possessed to
la greater extent than others of the "amOr Patri9"
common to all Americans Has he more power than the
candidate of democracy to soothe and calm the agitang
and darky boding question which divides the North
and the South, and to uphold the compromises of the
constitution, and to justice and right to ALL What
security has the South in the election of Gen Taylor and
TO- should bill, extending the ncendary principle of
The Wmot Provlso to territories south OF $50 so, be
presented for his sanction' We know full well where
Mr. Fmore's casting vote would be, should it be
sary-certanly not with the South; and the plainly
stated opposition of the former to the exercise of the
poper, enables to place beyond the possibility Of
loubt his course upon that subject. Look on this
picture and then on that"
Gen. Lewis Cass, statesman OF high renown at home
and abroad who has filled many civil offices, and always
TO the satisfaction of his countymen and his own hon
or of high and rreproachabe character patriot and
'wervng democrat, has boldly and explicitly announced
his views and principles, and the principles of the party
whose standard bearer he u.s. and among them, promi
nently embazoned, is direct and determined opposition
