THE WINGS AT THE NORTH.

Mr. EprToR have observed from the tenor of several
articles in the Union recently that you of opinion that
the wing party the North is not dissolved and that the
declarations of Senator Wade and of other members of Con-
gress have been made without authority of their consn
ent In proof of this you quote from the editorials Of the
Boston Courier and the New York Advertiser admit that
those journals have been for many past the OF
whig principles and that twenty years ago their opinions
would have had great weight with the Of the ede
party but it quite the Their conserya
tism has made them obnoxious TO the nuers and fire
eaters of their partyo those who follow the lead OF
Wade Sumner and Hale-by whom they are styled the
fossil remains Of old federalism
II is true that the wings in of the northern States
will maintain their separate organization and keep alive
their party name but you will find the resolutions at all
their conventions will forth NIL the principles of abo
litionism and their will vie with Seward and Fred
Douglass denouncng slavery and Shareholders and will
avow their determination agtate the slave question until
the resolutions Of 1850 and the Nebraska bill of
1854 repealed AT the late gubernatora convention of
the wings proper Maine boldly proclaimed that all
other political questions and principles should be merged
in that of the repeal of the Nebraska bill and the wings
invoked to lay aside all other considerations and to
support any man, matter how rabd ocofoco he may
have been provided he sound the Nebraska repeal
John A. Poor, esq of Portland who appears to have
been the leading spirit of the convention and who has
before been associated with any of the ecso por
ton of his party declared that the duty of the
North without distinction of party color to combine to
put stop to slavery aggression lie says
Our duty in this emergency is plain Lay aside
all local, sectional, partisan preferences on minor
matters and in for union of all men opposed to the
repeal of the Missouri Compromise Let inscrbe upon
banner No further aggression Of The Stare pomer and
fight under this flag till victory perches upon banner
at is not enough to think Alright; must also act
Towns counties and States must be roused and from the
shores Of the Atlantic to the thest west wherever there
is hand that labors heart that beats in sympathy
with freedom will come forth fellow-worker in our
cause. CheersJ
This question rises high above all the ordinary qucs
tons of party 1t involves the interest Of freedom itself in
which every has deep and common share, Lot us
labor in this value present interest and
future welfare and let transmit children without
incumbrnnce and free from STAIN the free institutions and
the manly sentiments which have inherited from our
fathers" [Cheers
