New YoRK.--A letter from a
gentleman in Western New York to
a friend in this place, speaks of the
Wing prospects in that State as most
encouraging. We take the follow
ing extract from the letter: "New
York will come out right side up.
The old Wing fires are burning
brightly, and the old Wing spirit is
aroused; Gen. Scott will sweep every
thing before him in the West. The
prospect was never more encour-
aging for Whig victory than now.
You may put this State down as sure
for Scott"

A Sisters Death.

She died upon winters night.
A long. long lime ago:
When the large round moon had wiu'ry look
As It shuye on the breast Of The frozen brook,
And over the fields Of snow.
As she lay that night in the rale moonlight.
Which fell on her peaceful bed,
She seemed like the form OF sculptufed saint
Without sign oiwoe or Of NOR tai faint,
With glory around her head.
With her eycllds closed and her lips apart,
And her arms like the marble fair,
Crossed on her bosom. and gently pressed,
She lay, as she sank 10 her peaceful rest.
In the mute reposs OF Pr aver.
When the morning h'cke. and We gazed again,
A smile on her face seemed given
And though our spirits were crushed and sad
The Christmas bells soon made " glad,
For We knew she w;ke in heaven.

Spring Election.

The time is near At hand for the sew.
eral pa ties in the State to present the
candidates who ase to be voted for at the
ensuing election--but not one conyen-
ton has yet been held. and only one has
been called, that of the Free Sellers,
which is to meet In Hartford on the 18th
OF February. The Wings have general
~ been the 6rst in the field, but this year
as we learn. their State Committee deci-
ded some months ago upon holding a
late convention. for the purpose, we be.
lieve, Of securing if possible, a more con.
tinuous effort to the end Of tho campaign.
This determination seems to have pug
zlsd the democrats and induced them to
hold back from any present demon.tra-
tons. they apprehend. we imagine,
that the Wings have some sly thing on
foot, which may embarrass tAem-an.l
they are watching to see what it is. We
hope they will, nevertheless, 60 ahead
without alarm, and trot out their candi-
dates as usual.
The present election is a very impor-
tant one TO all pal ties-it certainly is to
the Wings, who have il in their power te
fill the vacancy in the United States Sc.
nate by one Of their number. They wer.
very near success last year-both in re.
spect to the Senator and all the State Of
6cers. They may do much better this
year, if they do not suffer themselves to
be deluded by thsir cunning adversaries
AS to the candidate for Governor, we
doubt not that NJ. Foster is the choice
of the Wing peoples over any o,he,
man. He is, as far as we have heard any
opinions expressed. We have heard il
suggested. however, that he would no,
consent to run again, at present. Whe.
Their there is any authority for this init.
NATION we know not-but we do know
that the Wings have not a more able
man in this State. Of his age. than La
FAYETrE s. Foster, Esq. Should he
however, be SO far Disguised with his
late position as to determine not to oc.
cupy it again, We learn that candidates
will be presented from other quarters
We hear of one or two strong ones from
Litch6eld County. and one At least from
Middlesex. We hear also Of . strong
candidate in Hartford. A member Of
the bar in this city has been frequently
spoken of in connection with this sub,
ject by his friends in this and Fairfield
county; and doubtless there will be ma,
ny Others presented to the convention fol
consideration.
We trust most sincerely that when the
Wings have nominated their ticket, they
will go to work and elect it. This they
can do. We have several suggestions to
make in regard to their present position
and true policy but defer them for the
present. The Wing State Convention
will unquestionably be soon called. and
will probably meet towards the end Of
