Die one TOT the innapiants OF our noisy city Nal
with Presidential nominations and ratification
meetings and German musical jubilees, and the
debut of the charming cantatrice, Alboni, and the
Kossuth farewell addresses, and the highly re-
spectacle troupe of operate goats, dogs, and mon
keys /" at the Astor Place Opera House, we have
had most eventful time of it. Our German fellow
citizens have been alternately or rather simultane-
ously, crazed with the witcheries of innumerable
singing clubs, and transported with ecstatc visions
of political millennium. The Wings have /" re-
sponded to the nomination of ScoTT and Ora
HAM with cordiality attested alike by the num-
bers and enthusiasm Of those who met last Thursday
evening to ratfy the nominees and platform of the
Baltimore Convention. Signora MARIETTA ALBoNI,
the Plus ultra of contralti, has inaugurated her
musical career in the United States by her First
Grand Concert" given in Metropolitan Hall on last
Wednesday night. The operate goats and mon
keys at Astor place-differing chiefly, it is said
from the mustachiod and hirsute performers of most
troupes in having hair all over-have been drawing
nightly throngs of men, women, and children to
witness their comic pantomime in the " COLLATION.
dAfrique," the Deserter," &c.
The Wing press of this city will have sufficiently
advised you Of the manner in which the late nomi-
nations have been received by the Wings of the
commercial metropolis. That entire unanimity and
avowed aequiescence should ensue Immediately after
the rivaries Of contest so animated was not to be
expected; but those who remember the disafection
which prevailed in this city after the nomination of Gen.
TAYLOR cannot fail to be struck with the favorable
rast presented by the ready allegiance of the mao
y whose personal preferences have this occasion been
disappointed by the action Of the late Convention The
resolutions adopted by the Whigs of New York at the
ratification meeting above alluded to- sufficiently
pcit to their political brethren throughout the
whole country of the conservative and national position
which they intend occupy in the approaching campaign
The and principles Of the Baltimore Convention will
be sustained together. know of but single journal
which has attempted initiate the tactics of the Even
ing POST with regard to the Democratic nominees and
platform by accepting the Wing candidates with protest
against Wing principles as avowed and avouched by the
Wings in National Convention assembled But the
of this sheet be considered committing the
Wings Of this city State to such artful lodging than
the predictions of its editor for the Maine liquor law
the solidarity Of the peoples the revelations Of spiritual
knockers be adduced evidence that the Wings are
all totalers intervenonsts, and trapping mediums
The deliberate and authoritative manner in which the
Wing Convention has enunciaed its principles leaves no
room for the exercise of critical ingenuity evasive re-
cusancy the part of those in the Wing ranks who are
not really "of u.s. and the they go out from us"
the better for their candor and the harmony of the
party distinguished leader of the FreeSo Democra-
cy in this city, in giving in his adhesion to Pierce and
King publicly stated that he willing adopt the
platform presented by the Democratic Convention "r
Ms election" Is this all the fnaty expected from
the Free-So wing of their party by the National Demo-
Gratis? Your neighbor of the Union" who is much
interested in the precise phraseoogy of the eighth in the
series Of resolutions adopted by the Wing Convention
probably give the desired information on this point.
On last Wednesday evening IT, Germans of city
sembled in the Tabernacle to listen to Farewell address
from g Co.. hossuh." The assembage was large one
being composed in part Of the resident German popula
on in itself numerous and swollen by accessions Of their
countrymen from neghborng Cities attracted hither by
the annual musical jubilee Of the United Amateur Ger
Singing Societies. AS the speech of Kossuth on this
occasion the first in which he has openly violated his
pledge not to interfere in internal politics, it is
easy to imagine that it has produced considerable
ton and if any thing has hitherto been wanting to re-
veal the omnibus qualities of this imperial mendcant
it has been furnished by this finishing stroke of his pill
grims progress through country. He has peram-
bulated the United States with hat in hand the collection
for my poor country has been taken up the last Hun
garan bond that could find purchaser has been disposed
Of, and the work of gratitude has commenced. In
return for the hundred thousand dollars contributed
to the pennies exile" he proposes to bequeah the
legacy Of his intervention policy withthe Germans of the
United States for his executors and further boon In
requtal for the ndugent confidence manifested by the
American people in the veracy of his promise in

Of the United States in order that the "seed which he
has throughout the land may through their culture
bring forth the desired fruit" Instead Of Kossuth
