out the Union was never more dis
tracted than now, and the wing party
is everywhere recovering from the de
feat Of last November. There is every
indication that the National Govern
ment will fall into wing hands in 1856
and it is important that Vernon
should preserve her enviable position
in the wing ranks, as the state tina
never falters-as the bright star tina
never sets, nor sheds dim or uncer-
tain light in the wing armament.
Our domestic position is no less
worthy of our congratulation, for nc
state in the Union is governed with
better economy, or more for the true
interests of the people at large, than
our own. All the clamor of locofocc
leaders to the contrary is mere fus-
tian. Our own domestic condition, as
well as our proud position in the ma
tional whig party, demand our cont
nued efforts, and We hope that our
whig friends all over the state will be
active from this time till the day Of
election. 1t is in our power to elect
the state ticket by decided majority
of the people, and ne shall do Il, i
proper erertions are made. These en-
ertions must be made, and the honor
Of Vermont must be mdintained.-

HsS- The omens are right. The
Wings see it aud feel it. Discouraged
as they were, not by their own weak
ness, but by the result of a strange
combination against them last fall, they
have quietly folded their arms, patient
ly looking to see the end. The divi-
sions, the chickering's and the quarrcls
in the ranks Of the party without prin.
ciplc most surely indicate that the
weakness of age has already seized it..
A deadly nightmare is upon it. 1t
moves, not with colossal strides, but
nervelessly, slowly, on to its grave.
The conviction is everywhere felt,
among locofocos as well as wings, that
its national preponderancc is destined
to cease at the end of four years from
last March.
1t will struggle hard in Vermont for
this year at least. 1t is trying to
make Roadway by coalitions that have
always heretofore proved valueless,
and by side issues, and the usual loco.
foco jugglery. But half awake to duty
the wings can defeat the locofocos in
an open field. Appearing as they do
this year, it becomes the wings to grid
themselves for the coming election.
Well organized beforehand, and a full
turnout in September at the polls, will
surely overwbclm their opponents.
Let Us be ready for the trial.-,St.
Johnsbury Caledonian.
E@~ We hear from all parts of the
State the most cheering accounts from
our Wing friends. In many of the
counties our opponents, on seeing the
activity Of the Wings, have become
discouraged and disheartcncd. They
that what Greeley said of
the Wing party was indeed true, that
it was "killed," and worse than ami
hilated last fall and that it would be
a very easy matter to gain the ascen-
dency in the State in September.
They started with fresh breeze and
d full canvass to enter the desired
port, but unforeseen events have trans
PRED which make it very necessary
for them to change their course. The
Wings, whom they supposed to have
been dead, are "alive again." and are
actually preparing to defend their
rights and their sacred honors."
This fact, together with the disaffec-
ton which exists in their own ranks,
has operated to check them in their
course. The result of the August
elections, too, has had a bad effect up

ALL R,GHr YrT-IIowever strongly
the blustet and Drag of the Lo-
cofoco press may be to the contra
ry, again we say there is no chance for
alarm on the part of our friends,provided
every man in the Wing party does his
duty. We were never in better posi-
ton, considering all the circumstances,
to carry the State and elect our Govern
or by the people, than now; and nothing
but the grossest inactivity and neglect
can lead to different result. 1t is true
that in two or three counties, small
show of division has been observable,
owing to the foolish precipitation Of out
side issues but our real loss on this
score, will be unworthy of mention, COM
pared with the advantages to be gained
by vigilance in other quarters. We have
only to exercise a fair degree of gener
alsbip to ensure an overwhelming tri-
umph.-Rutland Herald.
