The Boston wings opened their campaign last
Wednesday evening, BY IN aking choice Of hun
bred and odd delegates to their partys State Con-
venton, which will be held week after next, in tho
same gladistorial arena in which the democrats
recently displayed and settled their little difficulties
Looking at the reported proceedings OF Wednes-
day evenings meeting, one might be led to sup
pose that il all Websterism here. Some OF the
noted Webster men were chosen delegates and
resolution in favor of the great man, in the true
thunderbo!t style, was adopted But this as we'll
as the talk about Horace Man. &C., is well known
to the initiated to be what the Turks elegantly call
BOSE. and we Yankees Cannon The resolution
and the talk were ''full of sound and fury and
will soon be found to have sgai6ed nothing. The
moot decided Winthrop men we're present, and
cheered snd hurr aed for Mr.. Webster ike good
fellows, AID were elected delegates by the aid of
Webster votes. good many Of the unsophis.ieated
friends of the Secretary Of State were present, and
were highly giatifed at the astonishing evidence
that was afforded of the popularity Of their idol
They had about as much comprehension Of :as
game that was going on around them as King
Charles spaniel has of game Of chess that m AZ
happen to be played in his presence. Admirable
business men are those Websterites; capital han ds
as lief fall in with wolf in Hungary to meet one
Of them on the Ri ato; but, il political matters
they are as innocent, as so many lambs, Of the
butchers art and mystery No farce ever contained
such absurdities as form the staple Of their poi.c
lax, and nothing but regard for the conyentiona-
ties OF society prevents them from being laug isd
to their faces at least fifty times day.
The Roxbury wings have elected genuine Web
ster men to the convention, who will vote for Mr..
Valley for Governor, unless il SHOULD DC 20 1ni
more profitable to vote for some ore else. Among
wi ia a fha hat nafrn "a.
party Will not press the election of Mr. Stevenson
or Mr. Moray, as one Of the delegates al largo 70 |
the National Convention. Mr.. Stevenson is one of
our Boston idols, AMI with much more Of talent, |
and some decided claims to the esteem Of the public

HE went bail for one of the ''higher law" gentle
men VAC rescued Shadrach, and has thus won
pretty largely on the affections Of the IMAM and
brother class OF our community and mas in other
ways shown himself friendly to the abolitonized
section Of Massachusetts whigery. which means
four iiths Of the whole party, with the other fifth

national administration shall have passed into the

made an excellent delegate, and would have well
represented the patty; but, they are both known
