BEAUTIES OF WHIGERY.

The latest case Of Wing maneuvenng is
one recently displayed in the house of Rep
resentatives, in the introduction of the fol-
lowing resolutions by Mr.. Perry. The first
is admirably drawn SO as to embody ques-
ton upon which the wings have been flatter-
ing themselves the democratic party would
divide and give 10 their adversaries a sure
and easy triumph; but the great unanmity and
good feeling which prevailed upon the re-
sult Of the 9Th ofJanuary convention, hav-
inc cast gloom upon their bright anlicpa
tions, II has become necessary for whg
managers IN Ohio to devise new ways and
means. s. silT ~ ea % M

sym2atbisers, demociats are ever on the.
alert. Bot the following remarks of the ed
ilor (Which accompanied copy ofihc reso-
Iutions,) will suffice for for the present.
"The enclosed resolutions which were
introduced last evening deny the fact that
this war was "advised by Ohio when Corwin
and Allen in The Senate voted acquiescenco

seniutives from Ohio in Congress did the

Union TO acquire territory as indemnity or

Wiling TO meet at any and all times. ~
Yesterday twas desired to be forced down
tho tliroa,s of the Democracy in hot haste
without any other examination than read
ing, but The wings were compelled 10 give
way--lhc attempt was too indecent and
monsirous. To-day after being printed, the
resolutions were passed, yeas 81; nays 27, a
strict parry vote Tho Democrats refusing
10 support resolutions Which contained the
No-TerriloYy Dccrne, however coverily ex-
pressed. Perry The mover ofihese resolutions,
very jcsaiticaily pretended that they commit
ted nobody--lrue they can be made TO mean
every thing and nothing as it may suit dis
honest parlzans 10 construe them. asa
Resolred By the General Assembly Of the
State of Ohio, That whatever difference of
gress TO prohibit The formation ofslavo SIntos
out Of territory already belonging to The Fed

into the Union, there cannot be any rational
ground for such difference of opinion. as

by conquest or by purchase; that foreign ter
ritory purchased by the national army, is,
and in the nature ofth case must be, sub

suits are and have been beyond her control

TO it on many fields, and through divers per
lis: that the state Of Ohio neither seeks no.
advises the acquisition Of further territory by
conquest or by purchase, nor is the power o
shaping the national policy in her hands
but she hereby protests, by every drop o

every f1g that has been enrolled from he

THE WHIG CONVENTION.

The leaders of the different elements and
fag ends which constitute the bank anli-war
party of Ohio. met at Columbus on the l9.h
and nominated Seabury Ford of Goauga
County as the man who is doomed TO be de-
fea,ed by the gallant Col. Weller at the com
ing election.
Whilst at the democratic convention, IN
ion, harmony and good feeling prevailed,
which has extended throughout theState in the
ranks ofour party; this gathering Of coons was
a scene ordiscord confusion and biNerdenun-
Citations, the effects which is clearly denoted
in The cool reception with which The doings
of the meeting and nomination isreceived by
the rank and file, Notwithstanding the efforts
of the Ohio State Journal and other leading
whig organs TO calm The elenentsand raise an
enthusiasm in favor ofhe nomination. The
contrast of the two and the issues by them
made, cannot, in our estimation, fail TO en-
sure TO the hard money and patriotic democ-
racy of Ohio, complete triumph except so
far as it is prevented by whig gerrymandel-
! ing. Our correspondence from Columbus
Of the goth contains the following brief no.
tice Of the Convention:
"This morning The Wing Convention mel
and almost departed in a row. Mr.. Camp
bell, of Butler, proposed a substitute to the
regular resolutions proposing az Adjournment
of month or two, to learn the will Of the
people, he was compelled TO Withdraw after
two hours Of the most extreme discord and
confusion, during which questions were put
and undecided; motions were made unheed
ed; and If the matter had not been withdrawn
I certainly believe that even worse result
would have followed.
The trouble was the friends Of Mclean.
Clay. and Taylor; the moderate and patriot
ic wings who held Collier as their first choice
had done enough in supporting Ford! and
they resisted successfully any declaration
for Corwin for the Presidency and this caus-
ed the trouble"

as Delano was not the especial organ of Cor

A SINGULAR REASON FOR BELTEV-
ING GEN. TAYLOR TO BE A WHlG.


The Editor of the Eagle, in the last No.
of that paper, assigns the following slge, sin.
gular and conclusive reason for believing
Gen. Taylor TO be a whig:
That Gen. Taylor is at heart a genuine
Wing, we have the most entire confidence.
His oery determination 10 maize no public er-
position ofhis political sentiments, is to uS
the strongest euidence Of hiSJdct For mere
he a locofoco, thcre vould be no motipe for
him to be silent, no impropriety in his procla-
ia,ing the fdctto The porid.
"rhe strongest evidence" of Gen. Taylor
being whg, is the fact that he mikes ''no
public exposition off sentimens;" that is,
,Ohigs are moi in the habit Of avowing their
sentiments, and because Gen. Taylor is
'mam he, TOO, is wing. We thank our
ncghbor 'or this. 'Yhe Democrats have al
ways said that whiggerry would not make any
avowal, until it was 100 late for the people
to decide, that after they had got into pow
er, then they would show the cloven foot,
and the wings have always denied it; but
here we have an ayowal that it isaatrue. and
we ask our readers TO" slicd pin there"
But with democras--or "locof ofocos," as
the Editor chooses to call them--lherc is
never any motive for being silent, no imp-o-
prie,y in ptoclahning" their principles to
the world. Democracy is not afraid ofathe
light, and never seeks secluson, no md,ler
how great The motive, This is also worthy
.of of haing remembered. .sf,5 <,- 3 s@H @ 3
