WING PRosPEoTs.-The \. Y. Day Book, al
though bitterly opposed to Gen. Scott, continues
10 admit the heightening prospects of the Wing
candidate. Referring to the circulation by Its
former concessions upon this subject, the Day Book
says:
Snow, then, it 50 happens that the n. Y. Day
Book states simply what it believes to be true,
without regard to papers or parties, Everybody
knows, who knows anything, that the Wings out
West have gone to work energeticaly, OF late, tor
Gen. Scott, while the Democrats are turning their
attention almost entirely to the local elections. In
this city they are great deal more anxious to Sc
cure their Aldermen and members of Congress
than the election of Gen. Pierce, and the te,c who
do work for him are left to bear the burden alone y
The Day Book gives the Democracy very
useful hint in the following:
"Another thing that has increased Scott's pros
poets is the silly and ridiculous abuse Of him by
the Democratic papers. The attacks upon his re-
ligion, the talk about his pay, and the charge o.
cowardice, have done him more good than all the
Wing speeches and Wing papers in the country
can ever do him."
tits not likely, however, that the advice will bt
followed. The spirit of hostility against Scott /:
too bitter and imprisoned to be prudent and dis
eliminating. The tactics of Harrison's and lay
lor's enemies are to be employed against Genera
Scott and with the same results.-Rich. Rep.

THE CERTIFIED CANDIDATE.-General Pierce
came before the country in Jane as the negative
candidate. His recommendation to the Baltimore
Convention was, that his character was q blank
sheet of paper on which the party could record
Whatever inscriptions suited them best His re-
comnendation to the country was that nothing bad
could be said against hun. It was not pretended
that he had ever said or done anything worth re-
Wondering.
A little inquiry showed, too late that both cal
culationS were erroneous. His political character,
Instead of being the SpoteSs thing 1t was supposed
10 be, was1 found to be disfigured with blotS So
wide and deep they dofied all attempt at erasure
Still he rem9Hed the Negative Candidate lie
was not Il hero. He was not an orator Tic was
No: friend of internal Improvements. He was
not consistent or satisfactory on the slavery queS-
tion. or the Catholic test question. lie was not
a triead of the old Indian warriors or their wild
ows or children. He was not generous or Just to-
ward the widow of General Harrison. And final
l, he was not distinguished for single quality Of
sta.esnanship while in either branch Of Congress
lie was; therefore, fitting type of what Carlisle
calls the everlasting No.
General Pierce now wears another character.
He is the Candidate of Certifcates-the Certified
Candidate His friends have exerted themselves
to procure certificates from tavern keepers and
boarding house-keepers as to his moral character
"A needless, and, to our minds. most uaseemy
proceeding. They got up certificates Ofsoundness
from Messrs. Forsyth and Soule. They produced
Freeso certificates of his frendlness to the South.
They produced Concord certificate on the Cath
ole question. Some Of these led to certificates Of
an opposite character. Thus there were mass
of certificates to prove that he did utter Freesoil
sentiments at New Boston. There were certif-
Gates of several hundreds Of New Hampshire
Catholics to prove that he never had been their
friend, and that his party always had been their
enemies. These were certificates enough to sat
isiy the most tender conscience. They were SUIT
fcient, certainly to establish his reputation as the
ccr,;6ad Candidate PeDphEe
