The Northern wings.

stand how thoroughly unsound upon the sla
very question: and how hostile to their inst
tutions, the Wings of the North are, they
have only to notice the proceedings OF the
Wing State Convention which has just closed
its session at Boston. A series of resolutions
were adopted, declaring the Wing party Of
Massachusetts, ever true to liberty, the Con-.
stitution, and the Union needs not to aban-
don its organization or change its principles
declaring devoted attachment to the Union !;
that it was the policy of the Father Of the
Republic to confne slavery to the existing
limits as evidenced by the passing of the or
dinanee Of 1857, clearly establishing as a.
a cardinal principle of government that sla-
very should be forever prohibited in the pub
lie domain; that the recent act of the ma
tional legislature is wantonly and faithlessly
annulling solemn covenant which has stood
for more than thirty years, leaving no re-
strietions upon the action ef the free States
beyond the exact provision of the constitu-
ton itself; that the naked question is now
liberty or slavery, and that they are prepared
at all times and under all circumstances, to
endeavor to secure the blessings of liberty !;
that the wings Of Massachusetts are unalter-
ably opposed to the extension Of slavery over
one foot of territory now free; that they OPP
pose the admission Of any new State formed
out of territories, unless slavery be prohibit
ed, and will seek the immediate uncondition
al repeal of so much of the act as repeals
the Missouri compromise; that the constitu-
ton secures equal immunities to all the citi-
zens of the United States, which is grossly
violated where the law exists for the impris-
onmeut of the citizens of Massachusetts,,
without trial or imputation of crime; that
the fugitive slave law requires an amendment
securing the trial by jury and habeas corpus;
or, failing in this they will seek uncondition-
al repeal; that the people Of the free States
are called on TO give such direction to emf
grafton as will secure free States out of terri
tories that they arragn the President as
having wantonly violated the pledge of his
inaugural address, and stopped from his high
position and prosttuted the influenced of his
Office by an unwarranted interference in the
action of an Independent branch Of the Gov
ernment; they also arraign the President
and administration for appointing foreigners
of questionable character to Office to the ex-
clusion of native citizens of high reputation
and patriotism; for its cowardly attack on a
weak and defenceless community upon most
trivial grounds, while not daring to insist on
the full enjoyment Of religious freedom tc
Americans abroad.
After several speeches the resolutions were
unanimously adopted.
Josiah Quincy spoke in favor of the obi
cation to return fugitive slaves being stricken
from the constitution; which was received
within cheers.
It is whispered that there is a prospectthat
ere long Bonaparte will be raised to the pa
pal throne The present pope is said to be
in very bad health, and it is not probable tha
he will survive. OF all parties, perhaps Louis
Napoleon is the mostinterestcd. His cousin
Prince Lucien Bonaparte, second son Q
Prince de Canine, has taken holy orders, anc
is said to be in every way an eligible persor
for such an officer. He would have the ad
vantage of being a Bonaparte and natural
lied Italian, and would probably be as ac
ceptable to all parties as any other individu

BUscnIN.-The celebrated poet and pro
fessor, Buschin, who was very careless in hi
dress, went out one day in an old dressing
gown, and met in the street citizen witt
whom he was acquainted. The gentleman
however, passed him without even raisinl
his hat. Divining the cause, the poet has
ened home, and put on a cloak of velvet an
ernnine, in which he again went out, and cor
trived once more to meet the same citizer
