CoRWIN UPON TAYLOR.

At meeting of some two thousand of the Sove-
reign People, held in Greene county, Ohio, on the
3Oth utmo, after sound speech from Hon. JOHN
Woops, in favor Of the Wing candidates for the
highest OFFICES in the General Government, Mr..
Senator CoRwN-ToM CokwIN, as the People
fondly call him-took the stand. After some pre-
liminary remarks, he said that he found but one
Wing candidate in the field for the Presidency !;
and, believing Wing principles to be necessary Tor
the prosperity OF the country, he should be recre-
ant to that country If he deserted those principles
nor for the sake Of men. Is General Taylor
Wing? TCries of "yes,' loud and long, with a
few faint 9 noes."1 am glad to hear those hasty
"noes." am here to testify listen to me ten
minutes and then say "no" ifsyou can. What
are Wing principles! Are the tariff the currency,
internal improvements--are such questions of poll
cy which are mutabe and liable change with the changing
circumstances of the countcorect day. and nexpedent
tomorrow, perhapsare these the principles Of the party
These form the policy of the Whigs but the principles
upon which that party are founded older than all these.
Wing principles did not originate with Gen. Taylor No.
Look back for centuries and the water and you will
find that John Hampden the first Whg and laid down
his life in defence OF their principles opposition 10
the one-na po,cr The King wanted his ship money, but
John Hampton and the Wings said he should not have
til voted by Parliament This the principle brought
across the by the Pilgrims wand fathers in 76 de-
cared that because the King withheld his consent from laws
wholesome and necessary, they, Wings would longer
consent to be governed by him What is Gen. TAYLons
position upon this question-ths Wing principle Is he
not WHIGl Does he not say that the people, by their
representatives., make the laws, and he, elected, viii
execute them What do the Wings want of President
suppose you want President to act under the constitution
to recommend Congress he may deem necessary
to appointments office and to stop there, let
ting the lawmakng power created by the constitution do it
duty within the boundaries marked by that instrument
Is this So Well, this is the position occupied by Genera
TAYLOR Like you, my brother Wings, wanted to know,
when Gen. TAYLOR became the candidate, his opinions
wanted his pledges wanted TO know his opinions upor
for while the People rule, our Constitution and ou
Government safe against corruption, money and power
not even the powers of darkness overthrow them We
have his opnionswe may thank the Democrats for that TO
their published asehoods drew him ouand those opinions
are such the Wings have entertained from the time
Hampden till the present day. But, says some brothe
Wing, Gen. TAYLOR is no polican-he never made any
stump speeches No; but he is equal to every emergency
wherever placed and the plain, honestheared old solde
will not be found wanting in judgment in the White
House, chere he takes up his residence the 5h Of
Ndrch.

The WING STATE CONVENTION met this day in
he Courthouse, and by reclamation, nominated
the Hon. WM. F. JOHNSON as candidate for Gov
ernor at the ensuing October election. Mr.. john
is the present acting Governor and, if the en-
thusiasm which existed this day among the mem
bers of Convention is carried into the canvass
throughout the State, he will most certainly be
elected to preside over the destinies Of the State for
the next three years.
During the proceedings Of the Convention, when
ever any allusion was made to the Hero of Buena
Vista, shout loud and long went up. Judging
from all | can learn from the Delegates from the
various parts of the State, am persuaded that the

Several Of the Wing papers in Ohio which IA
vored the project of holding Free Soil ?" Con-
venon in Buffalo, are dissatisfied with the nomi-
nation of Mr.. VAN buren,. The Lebanon Star de-
clares that it will not support him. and the Elyria
Courier, the Medina Wing, and the Warren Chron-
icle, have as yet refused to hoist the flag The
Wing thus speaks Of the nomination:

WELL PUT.--The editor of the Oswego Times
thus sums up his reasons for supporting General
TAYLOR:
"Simply, we go for Gen. TAYLOR because he
will administer the Government according to
Wing principles: Because he will sign harbor
appropriations Because he will not thwart the
: will Of the people on any question Because, in
the language OF Washington, he would not quit
: our own to stand on foreign soil: Because he
will not lead the country into disastrous, useless
war: Because he is honest, capable, and faithful
to the constitution"
