is a very ably written document, and commends itself
to general consideration 1t refers Ito use the report
of the New York Express,) to the novel position OF
the Wings of New York, who find themselves lori the

Wings have regrets for the past as they nave al
ways done their duty It reviews the three candidates
before the country setting forth strongly that Wings
Mr. Buchanan because Of bis principles,
nor Mr. Fremont because he had always been Dem
ocra of the Pierce school, and is the candidate OF
party sectional in spirit. 1t then declares that in
Mr. Fmore's late administration all Wings have just
cause to take PRIDE and expresses the fullest CON
fdence in him as q national and conservative states

Resolutions were ordered to be printed for general cir

Convention at Baltimore, which meets on the third
Wednesday of next month, was then appointed and
after speech or two from distinguished mel, the
Convention adjourned.
We have never entertained any doubts, since thu

Empire State triumphantly in November. Withou
any formal action the part of the Old Line Whig

the leading political organizations of the day, AM
having no candidate Of their own, are just in TIL
condition to appeal successfully to the conservative
feeling of the people. Hence the great moral powe
which attaches to their recommendations,
If the Wing National Convention endorses Mr.. Fill

cations tend that way, that action will exercise
powerful influence over the Presidential canvass
