cipcs that should govern the party in such nction-
Rotation in office is very important principle,
and should be applied to every grade of Office what
ever, and iavors bestowed as a matter OF charity
should have reasonable limit. More young men
should be brought out candidates. it is bad pol
icy for party to keep back a the young men, and
feel as though a man must be fifty sixty before he
IS promoted. Such policy. long ng,pursucd will Ge
the runation OF any party. But il you have a 'n1n
you prefer to elect and you do not prove sncctss.li
after fair trial, drop MIN and try another II he Is
good Wing be will not wish to run to the damage OF
his party, and it is not good policy to hazard the
whole party for the feelings OF one member who wish
es Office, but run on the man that will run the best,
avl .ct the greatest number OF votes. The meetings
T. make the nominations should be fully attended.
This is very important, as failure here gives oc-
| cason for many difficulties and diversions which
might otherwise be avoided; and | do earnestly
urge every Wing to attend the nominating meeting;
and lastly, as n strong element OF success, urge the
importance. OF q strict adherence 90 regular nomina-
tons W thout union and harmony, all our Efforts
will be unavaiIng For some two yeas past wc
have heard much of union, and now is the time Tor
union among Whigs-the time TO heal all personal,
local differences and TO unite the strength OF the
whole party.
Remember that principles--the principles Of the
Wing paty--are what we are contendlng for. Ee-
member that it is all important to send as many eX-
ponens of these principles 10 the Legislature as pos
sibe this year What il you prefer y before 3; II Il
is the candidate vote for him. Do not by your vote
aid directly or indirectly to elect Locotoco or Free
Soil man, who you know despises your principles,
and will do all he to defeat your party, and II
elected by your help, would come forward did one
in the town Of Huntington, after receiving his cleo
ton by the Wings help, in very eloquent and pow
eru speech, hanli'd them Tor their help and for con-
descending to sacrifice their own candidate at that
;imc, as he said to honor him with seat in the
State House and then openly declared to them that
he would 80 Tor their interest by going death against
their principles! Tlle Wing who withholds his vote
or votes for third man, often helps the election OF
political opponent as eftctually thoueh he had
voted directly for him. We call upon our Wing
friends lay aside all old troubles and unite in one
more pull altogether. Do not think that our oppo-
nents are so disenhearened that we can win the vic
tory without effort But let efforts be against
them they are our political enemies. But have no
enemies IN our own ranks. Union is strength !; we
have no strength to spare therefore let have union
and victory will be The policy OF oppo-
in voting for their regular candidates Isl strong
element of success. We nope every Wing will inn
tate their example in that respect. The old table OF
binding together many rods in one bundle to give
strength to the whole is truth that needs demon
stration. Take away n single rod and you weaken
the whole. So single vote may defeat the Nhg
candidate. Then unite, put all your votes together,
and il You fail it will be because your opponents have
q bigger bundle than yours. At all events, Wing
votes should not enter into their bundle and THIS
help increase its strength. Consisencc, principle
honor all alike revolt and forbid such unholy
union.
Wings Of Huntington, ponder well these truths and
when the time Tor action arrives it that you
are found in the path of duty
