Correspondence Of The N. \. Tribune
Boston, Thursday, Oct. I, 1855.
believe we have at length got through viii
our Stnte Conye ntionS, the fifth and last having
been held yesterday.
The Straight Out Wings met at Worcester on
Tuesday Their number was about half that Of
the usual Wing State Convention, aud only ia
towns were represented out of 800. What the a.
semblage lacked in quantity however, was fully
made I'D in quality. It exhaled the highest odor
of responsibility, and nominated ticket Of the
most eminent and unquesiiOnable gravity. The
delegates were mostly from the eastern part OF the
State, from Boston and its neighborhoOd. The
great mass of the Wings Of Western Massachusetts
20 for Rockwell the Republican candidate
The speakers Of the Convention Congratulated
themselves, with reason, on having got rid Of tho
troublesome fanatics Of the country who for the
last twent, years have bothered them sbout Slavery
and Intemperance forcing them TO sail under false
cOlOrs and swallow ANTI layery resolutions which
thew did not believe in. They have now clean.
clear Hunker party, sufficiently pure and select
10 satisfy the most fastdious The candidates are
not tainted in the least with AbOltiOnism or Teee
talism. They are as " National Constita.
" tional" and 7" Conservative" as anybody could
reasonably desire. To be sure, there is nothing
to distinguish them aud the party from the Beach
Democracy, who stand on precisely the same
platform. But that is an element OF strength
and is so admitted By the Democrats,
who ARE a good deal troubled By the new position
which the Wings have chosen. They accuse mo
Wings of stealing their thunder, and are naturally
yexed that men holding the same political priaer
pies should endanger the success OF those Prlnc,
piles by setting up rival candidates. IL genera
