we noticed, lew days since, that the Wings
said that General Taylor, in his letter 10 Secre.
lary Marcy, alluded 10 The fable OF The vol and
The lamb, as "lhc well known fable 0! IF,sop."
Since that lime The Richmond Republican has
presented "the 'lew APPLICATION OF that table, from
the New York Herald, as follows
zone sultry day a wolf Of President, and
lamb OF General, happened 10 Come al The same
time 10 qaench their thilsl iii lie stream of public
opinion, that ran tumblin2 down The side of
rocky mountain. The President stood upon the
higher ground, and the General al some distance
IRON hun, down the current"
The Herald closes lis version oil the fable thus
$50 he seized The poor innocent General, and
trIed Ia tear him ~ pieces, and make meal oi
him-bal while endravoring 10 do 50, discovered
that instead Of a lamb, The wolf got hold OF
bear, which happened l. haze lambs skin
over his head, but will perhaps, tear he wolf 10
pieces before The ides q! Noyemher-Who know>f
1--WE shall leave President Polk 10 draw The
application 10 the well known fable o! Esop.'"
Now, since this "lamb' proved 10 BE- "a bear"
with "a lambs skin over his head" Eve suppose
ii was not large enough 10 cover him cnirely)
toes mol the question present itself 10 every one,
who knows what a nopariy candidate Tor the
Presidency, (whose opinions upon The great qucs-
tons oil civil policy, touching The immense inter-
sis OF The country, arc alike unsnonn .:-"vu
se,n as The ptople,) nigh, 10, il Inc people should
eslow That ctce upon him, clothed with more
nan kingig power-dis arm gtA?'
This is the position claimed for Gen. Taylor
y his "no-parly" followers, who BY The way, are
isl now no longer ''no.par;y" party, but sort
"bluffing"- party, from the manner in which
li4y "Iun over" the Clayile party. The laller
slow a spirit worthy OF their leader, from their
sadness in insisting upon "piaying the game

III. Wings give, as 10 The fable referred 10 by
GIN. Taylor, places him in The position Of Of
icing gross insult 10 the President, which
cainot, in The most remote degree, be jusiifed;
aLi il their opinion is co!rec, one, il would go
slrng,y 10 show lha, there was an utter disregard
oflhe highest constituted authorities on me part
OF Gen. Taylor. which deserved The rebnke Of

sfan:s upon The Wig piatt~m in regard 10 his

The PrOsnect.

New YoRK-The proceedings of the whig
State Conventions; the excellent nominations
made by that body; the unanimity and en-
thusiasm with which they pledged their best
efforts to "TAyLoR AND FILLMoRE;n the
response which comes up from all parts of
the State to these signals thrown out from
Head Quarters; the spirited tone of the
Wing press, and the uniform tenor of our
private advices, all strengthen the convic-
ton we have entertained from the start that
the EMPIRE STATE will cast her electoral
by majority of tens Of thousands for OLD
ZACK.
PENNsYLvANIA.-The Wing fires burn
bright and high in the key stone state
There is a noble spirit awakened among the
friends Of the good cause and determine
ton evinced to secure a victory, if nnion
and energy can effect it. Gov JOHNSTON
is g stumping the State with excellent eff
feet, and the g Free Soil " movement is
cutting deeply into the Cass ranks. We
think that Gen. TAYLOR has good look for
the vote ofthe Keystone.
OHIo.-Here, too, the cause of OLD lack
gains ground hourly. The efforts of Con-
WIN, EWING, SCHENCK and other eloquent
Wing Orators are telling with decisive eff
feet upon the State. We have no doubt
that the election for Governor, Members of
Congress, Legislature, &c., which comes off
next month, will result in a signal triumph
to the Wing cause, and but little that the
result of the Presidential contest in Novem-
Der will be equally favorable
NoRTH CARoLINA.-The National incl
ligenccr publishes letter from Senator MAN
GUM in which that gentleman says that
North CAROLINA will cast heavier major
ity for TAYLOR and FILLMORE in Novem-
her, than she has done since 1882, except
ing possibly her ten thousand majority for
HARRIsoN in 1910. But nobody, we pre-
sumo, doubts that North Carolina is safe
for OH ZAcK.
MAssAcHUseTTs.- +" Old Bay State"
which was to have been carried by by
the g Free Soil . movement, stands firm as
Plymouth Rock, and according to the Bos
ton Atlas and other good authorities, will
give Gen. TAYLOR larger vote than it has
ever yet cast for any Wing Candidate.
ILLINoIs.-The Taylor papers begin to
talk sanguinelv of this State. The Chica-
go journal, which has kept up steady and
spirited fire on the Cass Notifications for
three months past, now pronounces the
breach Z" practicable,'' and is calling for
" Rough aud Ready . Volunteers to storm
it. They will come at the call by thou
sands; ready and willing to fight to the ut
terrnost under the lead of the Hero of Bue-
ma Vista. The Alton Telegraph says, " all
" that is now necessary to enable the Wings
g to carry the State is portion of the spirit
. which animated them in 1910 when under
sc circumstances more unfayorabie, they re-
" duced the Loco majority to less than two
thousand votes.'

usual a shout, which they naturally sup

The Convention.

Men sometimes err; so do Conventions ;
bat errors must be overlooked, or men would
not only have their enemies, but their friends
also, to fight. 1t is not very modest for one
or two men to set up control over hun
dred, and intimate that all are fools or knayes
who think differently from themselves. We
have great faith in the wisdom of majorities,
especially of Wing majorities. Principles
are every thing are nothing; if men
be chosen as candidates who are honest and
capable and who will be true to the princi-
piles of the party, it matters but little who
they are. Does Mr.. A. come up to that
Standard Yes. But he is not as popu-
lar as Mr. c.; why didn't they nominate
Mr. c. Iexpected they would-they ought
10 have nominated him." Stop, my friend;
don't you see, that if C. had been nomina-
ted, AS friends would have the same right
to grumble, that you have, in their own opin-
ion' The prime purpose and necessity of
Conventions, is to make common sacrifice
of partialites, for the sake of union for
without union we can accomplish nothing
but the defeat of our party and our princi-
pies.
Men who are willing to flake of from the
party, whenever they or their frie lds are
not put forward, are eagerly hunted up by
the opposite party and petted and flattered;
for in our county, they are the only possible
instruments of the defeat of the w Wigs
One who will thus lend himself TO the work
of distracting our party, is just as much a
Wing at heari. as that soldier is a patriot at
heart, who in the hour of battle, throws his
cartridge bcx across - the enemy, and turns
his bayonei upon the ranks in which he en-
listed. Ii is not our design to discuss the
propriety of the nominations made by our
Convention; it is not our business to do it.
The Convention is ADLER to judge, to select.
1t has selected; and as Wing, anxious and
jealous at all times aud under all circum-
stances 10 see the fight through, we shall go
the regular Wing ticket, National, State and
County, without one solitary erasure.

HEARTLEss CHrLD.-0n "Wednesday
last, gentee looking female applied to one
of the Police Magistrates, for the apprehen-
sion of her child, girl IA years old. She
stated that for the last three months, her
daughter had been in the practice of going
away and staying all night. That on Sat
urday night she left her home, and did not
return. nor was she seen until Tuesday night
when she was found at an infamous house
of prostitution in Mercer street, kept by
woman named Boyd. Upon the mother
hearing of the whereabouts of her child, she
went to the house, and there saw her seated
in one of the rooms, surrounded by two or
three girls of her own age, playing cards
Upon requesting her TO come home, she
turned upon her mother and abused her 10
most shameful manner, and ended by throw
lug candleSiick at the head of her parent.
IN vain did the unhappy woman demonstrate
with the misguided girl; she refused 10
leave the house, and the poor creature was
obliged to leave the house without her. A
warrant was issued for her arrest, but upon
the officer going to serve it, he found that
she had fled. and up 10 this tiiue, no clue has
been had of her whereabouts.-M Y. Star.
