Union County Wing Meeting.
epaos; Of ,J,,, Of 1iaTipg 1lr@'aaiiras.

Pursuant TO the call of the Standing
Committee, a very large number of the
Wings Of Union county assembled IN Tho
Court Room on the lith Dee 1852, whcr
ROBERT ii. LAIRD, was chosen l'rcsi
dent; John f. Wilson, James Shields
John Wilt, Henry ". Snyder and Beiiia
min Cawley, Vice Presid .nts; AMI Jacob
JIummcll and Samuel Marshall, Sccrcta-
ries
The object Of the meeting having been
stated by d. W. Woods, Esq, Chairman
Of the Committee, George +. Miller, Esq,
being called upon, proposed the following
THE plan, which provides for voting
for candidates directly instead Of by Dele
gates, We will insert next week.
This measure was advocated by the
mover, by Hon. Joseph Casey, Israel Gu-
,cliu,, and John Wilt, ESqs., - most con
genial with republican priEciples-moSt
likely to obtain the true sense of the pco-
plc-and demanded by the settled hostility
entertained by very many true Wings to
the presen, abused and inherently impolitic
system-that the people could then know
that every vote for their candidate would
count, whereas by the Delegate System,
Delegates voting in the dark might always
deceive. 1t was urged as unfair that Milf
fiinburg with 73 Whig votes, and New
Berlin with SS-l56 in all-slould have
y;,u. Delegates in Convention, when penns
with 500 votes had but t,ro. Six districts
-pcuns with 500, Beaver with c45,
Lcwisburg with 225555, Hartley with 2Go,
White Deer with lSS, and Centre with
ls5, have half the Wing vote Of the
county, but only l. Delegates in C"nven-
ion. while the other half, "a Districts
leyc IS Delegates
The change was opposed by Hon, Ner
Midicswarth, d. ", Woods, Esq, Satin
usl " eirick, Esq, and Hon James Mar
saall They argued that rc7'Tescntpt'o"
was the true republican principle that the
change had not worked well elsewhere;
that it would give Boroughs undue iufu-
ence over Townships would be more ex-
reusiye aud cumbersome would give the
nomination TO the man who had bare
majority over any one, .ltho' in minority
Of all the votes; and that it might be abused
as well as the Delegate system.
All the speakers, however, agreed that
they would acquiesce cheerfully in 'Ac de-
cision Of this meeting.
The motion being rut to vote, 1t was
difficult for the Chair TO decide whether
the Yeas or Nays were most numerous.
A, this juncture, it was proposed by Mr.
Miller that the change he made for one
year, and that then it te decided whether
the Old or the New System shall be con-
tinued. This motion was by general con-
sent agreed to, and the meeting adjourned
in uninterrupted good humor, resolved to
make fair trial of the principle OF voting
directly fcr all nominees who are to come
before the people for election.
We think the statement that this system
has been abandoned where it has been
tried. is erroneous. 1t exists in Crawford,
rav,,te and Wes,morcland counties, and
in many counties in Ohio. The Democrats
Of Northumberland adopted the New Sys-
tenn last fall, and we observe a movement
t. the same end in Philadelphia county.
