Notes of Alarm.
The Wings have hung out the signal of distress
The Central Committee, alarmed at the prospect of
things, have issued secret Circular and through
the State to alarm and arouse their parzans, and &c
bring them into action. We trust their appeal will be
in vain. What inducements have Wing voters, now,
to support their ticket 1t will serve only to uphold
hunkersm, and to defeat the very principles which,
for years, they have cherished vital principles. The
control of the party has passed into the hands
Webster, Clay, Fillmore, Berren, s, Co,-men who
stand shoulder to shoulder with Cass Dickinson Fooe
and jefferson Davis; while such true men, and lovers
of liberty, Gov Seward, Horace Mann, John G.
Paey, and Others are spurned from them, and their
free principles condemned and repudiated. Why,
then, should any HONEST Wings respond to the
call, longer sustain party controlled by such lead
ers j.!
We have ohtrined a copy of the circular, which we
annex hereto. 1t Is worth preserving a curiosity 1t
will be seen that presents principles measures,
the present ground of action, but appeals the feeling
in favor of the pary,as in former years. before it

We would call particular attention that part of the
circular, which makes the proGer of BOSTON MON
Ely to carry representative elections the country to,ons
1t is Boston money that has demorazed the party and
put the control of it into bunker hands, and now the
offer of it, to carry their purposes is thus directly
and shamelessy made. The people may thus see the
influences that brought to bear against them. We
trust they will 'purn the brbe'' and stand by the good
old Commonwealth. So shall she be saved, and hunk
erism and Pro-Slavery be Frustrated in the dust.
The Circular is follows:

"My Dear Sir,
"You are doubtless that the Wing campaign
which was successfully and harmoniousy started at
the Worcester conventional first of the present month
must necessarily be prosecuted with than ordinary
zeal and vgor, IN order to preserve the ascendancy of
the wing party in this Commonwealth Our adversa-
res in their combined and intriguing organization in
tend to bring all their influences to bear on the local
elections in the small towns, and meet and ov-
erthrow them in their field. The Wing State Central
Committee have been examining the returns of votes
given at the last gubenaoria election with view Gas

Soilrs and Democrats against The Wings in the House of
Representatives. We have therefore carefully looked

In your town the vote stood -, for Briggs;

aid to every school district in your town. for
your most popular candidate for Representative (lor
such only should be seeced) and send US the returns
one week before the election, that may know what
to rely upon. To accomplish this result, .ue shall be
milling to make reasonable CONTRIBUTION TO
THE FUNDS Of your committee should you require it,
We trust also, that by efficient organ cation in the sew
era towns and cordial and hearty support of our cam
didates selected and to be selected we NAV present
Massachusetts like her sister Wing State, Vermont
with clear majority all factions and combinations
of our enemies.
