State from the hands OF those who are so pre-
maturely coveting its Substantial honours."
Reunion Of the New York Wing Party.
The New York papers publish the following
call for Wing State Convention, put forth
unan imously by the State central committee (of
by the Legislature, and that nominated by the
Wings who met at Utica last year, the three
having been in session at Albany with view to
mutual reconciliation and the establishment of
permanent harmony:
Noticetor Wing State Convention.
Believing that expression of the views and prin-
cipes OF the Wings OF this State they are under
stood by U.S. in relation particularly to questions which
now agitae the country, should be made, in order to
induce an intelligent, honest and cordial co operation
among ourselves and with the Wings OF the other

and at Utica, and the committee appointed by the
Wings OF The Legislature at its recent session, have
agreed upon the following, as presenting what they
believe to be the sentiments Of the great body of the
Wings OF the state of New York
An economical administration of the Government
The strict accountability OF public officers, and their
rigid adherence to the limitations of power prescribed
blythe constitution and the laws; an honest and faithful
performance OF all obligations made with foreign ma.
tons, with scrupulous regard for their rights and
nrm and steady defence OF our own.
The improvement OF the important rivers and har-
bors OF the country so as to render them navigabIe
and accessible by prudent and systematic appropria
tons, founded upon examinations made by competent
and disinterested public officers
Such discrimination in the duties necessarily laid
upon imports tor the support OF Government as shall
secure to the industry OF countrymen Just remu-
neration and shall stimulate mechanical and manu-
featuring enterprise, and thus provide home con-
sumption for The products Of agriculture, which NAV
control and counterfeit the unsteady demands of for
eign markets, and shall promote that healthy inter-
change among ourselves OF the fruits OF our skill
and labor, which is well calculated to cement our
lJnion and maintain the spirit of national indepen
dence:
That the Wings of the state as body, are iof1exi
bly, opposed to the subsection of any territory OF the
United States now free TO laws imposing nvoun tary
servltude, except as punishment Tor crime; and they
rejoice tina! no proposition to that effect is pend
ing, or is likely to be presented, while at the same time
they unquahedy acknowledge the right of every so.

in such manner as its people may deem most condu-
Give to their safety and happiness, without interference
directly or indirectly, by cit of other or sub

That the wings this state will abide by the copst
tuition of the United States al its parts and that thew
will receive lis true meaning and construction from the
judicial tribunals it has created for that purpose and
will always sus ain and defend such decisions as the
law OF the land, until they reversed by the same
tribunals.
That the laws ofCongress and of the state egisla

That all VINO animated by sincere desire TO pre-

New York will ever be found prompt to render pa
trlotic acquiescence in all such laws
That the National Administration is entitled to the
confidence and support OF the Wings OF New Y ork
Tor the eminent ability and patriotism which have char
acterzed Its measures, Tor its successful management Of
our foreign affairs, the generous sympathy it has exi
biied toward oppressed people struggling for free

and the determination it has evnced repress and
defeat all movements tending to impair the public aith
