TRlCKs or THE TRADE.-rhe Democratic
Legislature Of Maine, at It's last session, passed
law that Presidential electors should hereafter
be chosen by a plurality Of votes. This was
when the Democrats in the state thought they
should be more sure Of carrying the day under
snch law liut since the nominations of Cass
and Taylor it has become pretty evident that the
latter viii secure II plurality Of votes, and bill
has just been introduced by u sagacious Cass
uau, to repeal the plurality law and substitute
the old majority principle, with a view to throw
the choice of electors into a Democratic Legis-
lature. The trick may give the vote of Maine To
Cuss, but he will still lack anywhere from one
hundred to one hundred and fifty votes Of an e
lection. Such maneuvering don't amount to
much.

~ Half dozen Wings, ardent friends of
Mr.. Clay, have sent us a joint letter, saying that
they pledged themselves, some time ago, not to
vote for Gen. Taylor for the Presidency They
cannot, however, think of separating themselves
from their old friends, They still say that they
will not NC for Taylor, but that they will vote
for the electors nominated by the Wings and
that the electors can vote for Taylor, if they
like.--LouispiHe Journal
At first blush this looks like creeping out at a
very small hole Not so, perhaps. Were the
Wings to put their wisest and best men upon the
electoral tickets and pledge them to nothing but
an honest discharge of their duty under all the
circumstances of the case, at the period when
they shall be called upon to cast their votes, the
course of these Kentucky Wings would be right
The electors when called upon to vote would
know the result of the elections in every state !;
they would have before them full develope-
ment of the position of all the candidates, as
understood 10 different parts Of the Union they
would fully understand the dangers to be avoid
ed and the good to be achieved and if left free
TO conscientious discharge of their duty, a
wise result might be safely counted upon. We
like the suggestion right well.

A WARSISo TO LocoFocos.-Th Hon. NJ
Cabell, NJ. c. of Florida, lately obtained claim
Of some sll00 for Democratic constituent, and
sent him the sum under bis frank.
The Locofoco, upon receiving the package,
and seeing the frank of Mr. Cabell, thought |,
was Wing document, and was just on the point
of throwing it into the fire, when sober sec
ond thought prompted him to open it, and he
discovered to his joy the siioo, which was saw
ed as brand from the burning"
Let our Democratic friends be warned by this
incident. Let them open all the Wing docu-
ments they receive, turning them over carefully,
leaf by leaf, and possibly they may discover
some old claim of their fathers or grandfather
paid in full. or at least put in the way Of settle
ment. We once heard Of sailor, who, acciden-
tally opening his Bible, found $40 note which
his mother had placed there before he went to
sea. lie and all his shipmates were always cele-
brated afterwards for scare hing the Scriptures"
Look into your Wing documents, friends. II
you do not find money there, you may find what
is equally good, the means Of making your coun-
try and yourselves prosperous and happy.
