The Wings of Randolph county, in mass

resolve as follows:
l. That we cordially approve and endorse
the nominations Of the State officers, as
made and presented by the recent Wing
State Convention; being convinced that the
gentlemen who compose the ticket are wor-
thy representatives of the Wing cause and
eminently entitled to the united and jealous
support Of the wing party.
2. That in WILLARD FILLMORE, of New
York, our illustrious Chief Magistrate
and EDWARD BATES, of Missouri, we have
strong and reliable ticket for President
and Vice President, in the approaching ma
tional campaign, and should these distin-
guished wings be the choice of the Wing
National Convention, we pledge them our
best support.
3. That we heartily approve and ratify
the series of resolutions passed by the late

embody sound wing doctrine and constitute
platform of principles, on which every
wing may firmly stand and do his whole
duty to the wing party and the country.
4. That fully impressed with the belief
that Randolph should of right be good whig
county-a position maintained by her in
former years-we mutually agree to dc
what we can thoroughly to organize our
strength so as to secure wing victory al
the ensuing August election.
5. That while we deeply regret the de-
clination of Gen. Alex. w. Doniphan, the
nominee of the Wing State Convention fol-
Governor, yet we have an abiding confidence

ply the vacancy with some wing who will
receive the enthusiastic support of the whie
party, and we hereby pledge ourselves in

committee may select for our candidate iol

District. This is premature. | am not yet
a candidate, and shall not be (if at alD until
know more of the will of the people of the
district: and that after they know more of
my opinion of the present condition of the
democratic party Of the State Of Missouri
With this view had long since intended TO
visit the counties OF the district; but msior-
tune had disqualified me for that undertake
ing, and l did not choose TO be present at
the convention at Cape Girardeau, nor to
authorize any peIson to speak word in my
name there. But the nomination which
was made there forces me 10 decide the
question. of candidate, or not; and that throws
me back upon my original intention to speak
with the people first. With this view |
shall be at Jackson, Cape Girardeau county,
on Saturday, the l5thinstant, at one o'clock,
afternoon.
In doing this intend no disrepect to the
delegates who nominated me, but act in con-
formity to my well known opinions in rela-
ton to such nominations; all Of which stand
for nothing, in my estimation, unless made
in accordance with the will of the people;
and of that point the people themselves, and
not the delegates, are the judge. And /
will say, that l entirely approve the conduct
of the Democratic delegates in Withdrawing
from their own room, to avoid the disgrace
of an affray. say, to avoid the Disgrace
know they did not retire to avoid the arms;
and there were two persons there at least,
who know how easily slap on the mouth;
with an open hand, could COW and assassin
with a dagger in his hand.
Respectfully, sir,
Your obedient servant,
THOMAS II. BENTON.
This is fine specimen Of harmony, and
promises some sport to the people at large
and an excellent prospect of good to the
country,'by the election ola Wing. We say
hurrah for Benton and Bogy, and success tc
the wings.

only been aided by her newspapers and letter

the iron rule Of military despotism and at home
she has forced millions of lrishmen to abandon

These two rights, which were the great palladi.

men, are at this moment completely in abeyance
and any subject of England may now be taken
under warrant from the Secretary Of State,
and imprisoned at pleasure, without ever being
brought to trial or having an opportunity OF
proving his innocence. So also, under the same
acts, a military squadron, or band of police
officers, may, at pleasure, disperse, and imprson,
if they please, any half-dozen or more or less
persons, who may be talking politics together.
This is English freedom of which we hear 30
much, and these the glorious rights of English
men to which the poor ignorant masses of Europe
leok at with such admiration. There never was
time when Englishmen possessed any rights
but what they derived from their ancestors, and
| of which they could not be at any time dvested
by simple act of Parliament. In any great
parliamentary debate on a question involving
the prerogatives of the King or the rights of the
people, it is not decided by reason and argu-
ment, but by precedent, as if there were not ten
bad precedents to one good one in the history
Of every nation. The question is only, is there
any precedent? Did our ancestors enjoy this
privilege, or the King exercise this prerogative
This is the great, the only point; and nothing can
ever be conceded to the people but what is con
clusively proved to have been " the ancient un,
doubted right of Englishmen." They have no
Constitution but great bundle of precedents,
and are governed not by the living but the dead.
This the great champion of human rights with
which the United States are called on to unite
in crusade for the liberties of Europe
