RUFUS CHoArE.-"Jack HUMPHREYS, the dasfins
Boston correspondent of the Albany Dutchman, thus
amnSnsly sketches the pecularitieS of this eminent
lawyer:
| Runs Choate is picture to look at, and a crowder
TO spout lie about feet six, SIX feet seven
U ms socksj supple eel, and yasa cork-screw
ms lace Is compound of wrinkles, "yaller andcrs,

Eyes ana head shaped like mammoth goose-egg
Dug END up; his hair, bnck and curly, much resembling
n'g OF wool IN admirable disorder brush heap
IN gale oil wind. His body has no particular shape,
ana MS wit and legal ''dodges" has set many Judge

Suments ingenious and forcibe. He generally makes
ten strlke-udge and jury down at the end of every

high iaootln hubdubs.'' Strangers mostly think he's
crazy, and the rest scarcely understand what it's all
about lie invoices his time and elocution 1000 per
cent over ordinary charges, for having ones self put
through course of law. Rufus Choate is about fifty
years OF age; perhaps over. lie is considered the
abest lawyer in New England, or perhaps-the United
States. His hand writing cant be deciphered without
the aid OF pair of compasses and quadrant. His
autograph somewhat resembles the map of Ohio and
looks like piece Of crayon sketchng done in the dark
with three pronged fork He has been in the Senate
and may be- if he has time to fish for it-President OF

In the Wing Convention, which meets at Springfield,
to-day, it is scarcely probable that single town in the
Commonwealth will be unrepresented by delegates.
Never in its palmiest days the leading men, of
that party active in their endeayors to pro-
their purposes. Most bitterly do they feel the pangs
of disappointment in view of their total defeat at the
last election, and determination TO regain what they
have lost, retrieve their fallen fortunes at the next
election, inspires them before. Money is freely
poured out, and to be poured out through the whole
campaign like water, and effort will be left unried,
expedient will be disregarded, which promises the
slightest increase of their VOTE They have boldly
pressed their determination to scarry the State and
to accomplish their determination they will not hest
tate upon the means. The object they have in view is
corrupt one, but they possess excellent faculty to
make the appear the better reason and under the
decisive cry that the ''Union is in dangers the North
stands up manuy for its rights they expect to rghen
caoe, and humbug timd voters into support of their
measures and their men.
1t is the duty of the liberty loving men Of Massa-
chusetts to be awake to the Importance of the issues
involved in this contest; disseminate the knowledge
of the fact that every vote for the Wing candidates is

opponents are active in the work they have set them
selves to PERFORM and their efforts must be counter
acted by energetic efforts part the victory will
be theirs. There is no time TO lose, if we would add
to what we have gained would retain it in our hands
The friends of freedom in every city, town. village and

own experience, the employed gain recruits to
such expeditions as that of Lopez. A prisoner, Juan
Antonio Rosales, of New Orleans, in his examination
before the Spanish authorities coroborates our state
ments to the letter. He says ''that he had been in
duced to enter into the expedition by the representations
OF Desderio Manresa native Of the Island who took
him to the house of Lopez, by whom he was assured
that they had received letters promising to revolution
ze the Island, and to bring the regiment of Canta
bra Thus Lopez induced him to join, promising him
recompense in the lands of the Island; and, finally,
he declares that Of the peasants had joined Lopez
or held any conference with him, but that all had fled
from him without distinctions, abandoning their homes;
and that SO great the disappointment and rage of
some of the men, at Lopez, that they determined to kit
him; but they had not done it, thinking that With ut
him, they would perish the more speedily.
