SETTING up ron THEMSELVES.

WO quote the following paragra PHI from
The Troy Wing, as showing, in connection
Nth the article from the Courier and Enqui-
m, which We published yesterday, and the
ono from the New York Commercial, which
w0give day, the opinion entertained by
The Wing press OF the State with reference
% the Auburn Convention. The Wings who
participated in the proceedings of that Con-
vsnti0n, and en- icrscd its resolutions, have,
aS0nr Troy contemporary truly athrms. no Ii
tie to be any Logger cons .deTcl Wings:
Il the passing by the adjourned Saratoga
C60yention at Auburn Of those resolutions
repdliating the Wing AMI Democratic Balti-
more platforms: the calling of sectional
Convcdfio, to nominate candidates for Presi
dent ana Vice President, AMI the formation
Of "Rcpubiican Organization" were things
done in earnest, then they who did Thorn
mean that, in their own language, they have
ssfor the past, present and FUTURE" cut loose
from the Wing aud Democratic parties. We
do not see how men can 60 10 u COny cntlon,
md not be bound by its doings and rcso,u-
tions, so long as they do not protest. We
hear Of none If the many Wings who lad a
hand in ,heso regulating resolutions, pro-
Nesting against them. The Inference then is
that, with like number Of corcenial spirits
from the locofoco camp, thny have set up for
themselves. We have cniy to say now that
they are fairly OUT Of the Wing party, we
i hope they will keep out, though we venture
to say that some of them at least will a,tomp.

untion and Sc! up on their own hook, they

Good riddance. for there arc enough left
without them Buffalo Com.
The above rejects the sentiments OF every
staunch Wing press Of The whole North, but
no doubt CRATES hard upon the fusions;s and
their organs. Any body of men seeding
from arg organization, canno, be considered
whatever their action may be, as belonging
TO the old organizaticn. but is &c pdric. and
AS such it ought to be considered. both as
respects m orcanza on and its action. AZ
Ter thy have withdrawn from the old orsanl-
,'tion, OF which they formed part, they ought
not to expect 10 participate in the delibera.
tions of that body which they left. Nothing
is palmer than this; because the elomcn.s
that caused the separation enter IS the basis
Of their organization, and consequently can
not expect sympathy or cooperation from
tho old order Of things, On account of the in
cougruties that exist between them. In view
" these facts, the formation Of great
Northern party, to be denorlinatcd :sRepub-
loan" (o~ly another name for Abolit;on:sm,
as the doctrines Of the one are sui gsneris of
the o:hcr,) it VIII be well for the Wing party,
to cling tenacOusly to old party lines, plat
forms, and support the enactmcnts Of the
constitution; as the ''day Of battle for con-
stitu.ional rights" and the preservation of
the Union OF these States, is approximsting

Union in the North, will be compelled to

who are sounding the tocsin Of Repeal and

let it come. rs that only will determine who
arc the true friends of Republicanism, and
who arc TIC friends Of Liberty. We have no
Icubt as to what the result will BE-; we know
that there arc good, end great men enough,
sound and sterling advocates of justice, and
