The Wing Convention,

Which assembled here on the 2sth
inst, nominated SCHUYLER COLLAR, Esq,
OF South Bend, as their candidate for
Congress in this District. Our friend of
the Register is young yet, ard on that
account, it was thought, perhaps, he
could bear the defeat that awaits him,
better than some of The older aspirants
in his party. Mr.. Colfax is as unexcep-
tionable a Wing, as regards talent
character and honesty of purpose, as any
man they could have selected.
After the election, Mr.. Cofax may
console himself with the thought, that
he has been beaten but once, while Mr..
CLAY, the great champion of his party,
has been beaten three times.
