Wing Party in New York---A Review
Of the Election.

Of the Election.
The New York Express, in an article re-
ferring to the difficulties Of the Wing party,
in New York, growing out of the Frecsoil-
ism of aportion Of the party, says
The signs of the times indicate that if &
National Convention be held, lIillard Fill
more will receive the whig nomination for
the Presidency. All the Southern and the
Northwestern Wings look that way. 1t is
the general conviction in the north and east
even whercsome other candidate may be pre-
ferred, that he alone can now unite the whig
party. l. may be, as some say, he cannot
/ be elected, but it is certain, if he canno: be.
no other whig can be on any other ground
or principle than just that occupied by him.
Now to deprive him Of dis position, 10 strip
him of this prestige, is til, warfare, kept up
upon him and lis friends in ti;s lis own
State. If other States can be made 10 be-
lieye that NTllard Fillmore cannot carry his
own great Statc--tlIat here h. IS powcrlcs.
or that here he and his friends have been
failhless to Whig principles, that the fatal
stab, 50 the assassins think, is given and he
is laid stark and stiff,
''Undcr the hoors Of Wanting enemies"
Hence it is that, while the hnli-Slaycry
tiror has been permitted to suJside even in
New England here in New York, and in
population connected with il, such is North
ern Ohio and the Lake region generally, the
Abolition Pyroechnis.s keep their fire
works in full play.
NEillarl Fillmore, as Wing President
pledged 10 no aaioes but upon ligh conslitu-
ton grounds, signed the Iugi..ve Slave bill,
and hence the Pyrotechnists Keep the bill all
the while in full blaze before the public eye.
Nothing disturbs Greeley, Weed & Co, SO
much as that bill! Nothing is half SO hor-
riblc. Before it Protection, Internal I'M
provements, and every other Wing princi-
pie. dwindlcs into absolute insi-rihcancc.-
Keep up that excitement" the T:atchword
is '.and NIiIlard Fillmore will be killed off. >"
Hence the Public mind is constantly hcc-
tored with frightlul tales, and the public
fancy is wrought upon, as by some Dante or
Aristo, to make the North believe the South
is one universal Hell.
1t is clear. sclf-cyident, that under such
state Of things, if they are to be persisted in,
the old New Yorl; whis party is to bcrcnt
in twain. We Union wligs cannot bclaade
Aboitionists of. We New York Union
wings cannot be separated from the wings
in other States Of the Union. There las
been and is no fidelity on The part Of Weed
& c.. TO ccmpacts or undue standings.-
The Albany platform he's been kicked ever
by them every day since it was made. They
have omittedno opportunity, but on the con-
trarv. have avuilcd them elves of all oYpov-
/ lunitius 10 keep open he wounda ot Cur lar-
ty and OF our country. II, now, this is 70
be so, all we Union Wings have lef, TO 40 Is
/ TO isolate ourselves from these Abolitlouists
/ in our ranks, to drive them where tl.ey be-
/ long, under the banners Of Gerrit Smith and
Fred Douglass, and torePlant ourselves then
upon the Albany Wing platform, with such
construction as the New York Wings gave
the Compromise bills upon the authority Of
II. Cay, May Sth, 1880. They who can
not or will not 90 with us are mere section
aists. not whigs-and we shall cease to be
embarrassed by them when We act with
Wings elsewhere. Death inevitable j, be-
fore us. perpetual, endless death, under the
embrace of lheir Abolitiouisn; and what is
more. we deserve such death il we cease
to be Union Wings. This Abolitionism
must, then, be strangled of, or ii will kill the
whole Wing body every where, and what is
worse, kill it forever. Better by far have a
political trance just now, and 4 resurrection
on first principles hereafter, than cling tc
this living death. Let our friends in Buf-
falo, in Rochester, Geneva, Canandaigua,
Syracuse, Utica, Albany, Troy, and else
where, think OF all this, and if they think
as we do, let US prepare for National
Convention, in which the Albany platform
shall be our standing ground, with the expo
sition given TO it by Henry Clay. Other,
go to Buffalo, and fix their sign-posts there
1t is true, they may l,ill us there, as Martin
, Van Buren, did Gen. Cass; but j, is not 81
certain as that event, notwithstanding theil
threats. We have powerful allies that W,
, can act withnCw, in every State Of the UnioI
upon the principle of acquiascence in th'
compromise bills, and it is clear that tn,
Democratic party in the South, where it
main strength lies, has not yet been brough
thus to acquiesco. Nullifiers and Secession
lists there oppose these bills just as Abo
litionists and Free Soilers do here. Ex
